Ghostly Love (A Holtzbert Story)

Sunshine

Jillians POV

Everyday living in this house with those 3 idiots is always a day i feel like i'll never forget. 1 year later and i still find my gut aching at least once a day from patty's silly jokes and Abby and Erin's reactions to them. 

And this was one of those days. I woke up to the sun beaming through my window and immediately felt happy, which was excellent because the happier i am, the more tools and ghost-fighting weapons i tend to make. What a brilliant job i have.

I walked downstairs to the smell of fresh coconut, Erin's smell. She stood at the back of the kitchen with dripping wet hair and an unforgivably strong smelling coffee in her hands. I don't know what it is but lately i have started to feel differently towards Erin, it's a feeling i can't explain and i'm too scared to delve into right now. But nether-the-less, seeing her face on this beautiful Thursday morning made my happy mood even happyer-er, if thats a word.

Erin's POV

'Good morning sunshine' I smiled at Jillian and gestured towards the coffee jug, 'do you want one?' i asked.

'jesus christ Gilbert we've lived together for a year now and you still haven't worked out that i don't like coffee?' Jillian laughed and sat on the stool.

'im just playing with you' i laughed and joined her, 'anyway, i hear you have a surprise for us today'

'oh yes, something quite magnificent, and i've come to the conclusion that we should probably throw a party, maybe tomorrow? to celebrate it' I already began to wonder if Holtzmann's 'amazing surprise' was just an attempt to make us throw a party, she's been hinting at it for weeks.

'you just wont let that go will you' i replied.

'i just think, we've had this amazing building for a year, we should let her have some fun'

'her?' i laughed.

'Yes her, i call it her okay' she giggled, and something about that smile warmed me.

Jillians POV

A few hours later, after everyone was dressed and presentable, i called a team meeting to further discuss my party idea.

'Okay so, i know ive been dropping hints for a while now but heck im just gonna come straight and say it, we need to have a party. Like now. Like..tomorrow'

'Well im down, as long as everybody else is?' Abby responded in a questionable tone.

'i'll buy the decorations!' patty grinned.

'ill take that as a yes then' Abby laughed.

'i guess i can get the alcohol' Erin said with a forced smile, she's not much of a party-girl but i was ready to make her have the best night of her life, plus it was super cute that she had tried to look just as enthusiastic as the others to make me happy.

'Well thats it then. WOOHOO!' i screamed.

'i hope our douche of a receptionist won't mind' Abby responded, in a joking manner or course.

'mind? he'll love it' i of course wasn't sure of this, but i wasnt about to let this party slip.

'PAAAARTAY TIMEE!' Patty shouted and we began to plan.
