I woke up and got all ready for school. Showered, changed into clothes, ate breakfast, and even started to get my stuff together. I was excited to get back to school, see the rest of my friends, the rest of my classmates, then I realized what a horrible idea that would be.

They'd flip shit.

So I called Theo.

"What do you want?" He asked. An engine started in the background. He must be heading to school.

"What should I do today? I can't go to school, I can't really even go out. My parents must be paying the bills somehow and they'll get pretty suspicious if the water, electricity, internet, and literally any other bill starts to get higher than it's been. So I've got to conserve. Plus what do I do when the house sitter comes by?"

"Dude, chill. Laura is the house sitter. And maybe they should come back to see their son. But you're right about school."

"Theo! What the hell am I supposed to do all day?"

"Chill. Walk over to my house, but wear something to cover your face, and just chill in the guest house. My parents leave the house by seven thirty, and don't get back until five thirty. Just hang out there."

"Thanks." I hung up.

I pulled on my jacket and shoes and started to walked towards Theo's house. I hopped on the bus, paying the cheap fare. I stepped off and as I walked up to the house Theo's parents pulled out of the driveway. I made sure they had turned around the block before I went into the guest house.

I sat down on the couch and flipped on the TV.


Around noon, I rummaged through the freezer and microwaved some Pizza Rolls and cracked open a delicious can of Coca-Cola. I sat back down on the couch and started to eat my lunch when there was a knock at the door. Then, keys jingling in the lock.

I swear to God I cleared the room in one step, heading to the bedroom and hiding in the closet. I pulled out my phone and called Theo.

"Hey, Elliot. What do you need?"

"Who the hell is unlocking the door?"

"What? Oh shit. The maid."

"The maid?! The maid?! You have a maid?! Theo if she sees me, and recognizes me, who knows what she'll do! The town can't know."

"Elliot, chill. Where are you now?"

"The closet."

"Bad choice dude. Where do you think she puts all my clean laundry?"

"Where the hell else was I supposed to go? Can't you call her? Tell her that she's not needed today or something?"

"Dude, she's always needed."

I wanted to kill Theo. "Call her off just this once, will you?" I heard the floorboards creak outside the closet door. I held my breath.

"Elliot, just bride her with some money and she'll go away." Theo paused. "Elliot?"

"Elliot?" It was Laura.

I got out of the closet and saw Laura standing in Theo's room, looking for me. I exhaled, "It's just Laura. Tell the maid not to come today, and I'll clean for you." I hung up. "Laura, you scared me. I thought you were the maid. Why aren't you at school?"

"I thought I'd come see you during lunch. Didn't expect to find you hiding in the closet though." She smiled.

I walked out to the living room. "I thought you might have been the maid, okay?" I looked at the time. "You should probably head back to the school, though. Don't want to be late for class."

Laura nodded. "It's just weird, knowing that you're alive while the rest of the school thinks you're dead. I just want to run through the halls and scream that you're alive."

"Trust me, I wish I could be alive too. But for now, it's best if everyone still thinks I'm dead. At least until we figure out what happened."

Laura kissed my cheek. "I'll be over after school. Be ready." She smiled and walked out of the guest house. I smiled.

I got to kiss my girlfriend again.


Theo and Laura showed up at the guest house around the same time. Theo first, then Laura. We sat on the couch for a while, not really talking much. I told Theo that the maid never came. He told me that she called in sick.

Then Laura stood up and pulled me back to Theo's room. Theo stood to join, but Laura locked him out. "Theo put in some earbuds or something. Just give us half an hour." She turned back to me and started to take off her shirt. She was wearing a lacy pink bra, one of my favorites of hers. It compliments her skin tone, and her shape. Not to mention makes her breasts look just wonderful.

"Laura, what are you doing?"

She dropped her shorts, revealing matching panties. She crossed her arms over her chest. "What are you doing? You're just standing there. You rose from the dead, can't your dick too?"

"Oh! Burn!" Theo called from the other room.

"Theo! Earbuds!" Laura pushed me onto the bed and pulled my t-shirt over my head. She pulled off my jeans and blew me. That got me going. Then we fucked.

I really don't remember a lot from when I was dead, the afterlife and all that, but I know I missed sex. I missed sex with Laura. Because sex with Laura leaves you sore and wanting more and wanting a safe word but never really using it. She wears the pants when it comes to sex. And I'm fine with it. It fuels it.

(She's kind of kinky in that way.)

Once we finished, we both laid down on our backs and she kissed my cheek-would've kissed my mouth, but after having my dick in it we both knew that wouldn't be pleasant-and pulled on one of Theo's shirts and her shorts and went into the bathroom.

I just laid there a little longer.

Then I had to get up, feeling dirty from the sex, and walked out the main room of the guest house. We had to make a plan of what exactly to do with me.

So we got started: Theo, Laura, and I.GLu{
