My Ghost Boy

~Chapter 3~ This boy

***2 WEEKS LATER***

I hear my horrid alarm clock waking me up from my great slumber. I open my eyes slowly and see Joseph laying very close to me, it's became a normal thing now. I remember the first time I woke up and saw him, I flipped out and almost fell out of bed, but now I'm accustomed to it. I'd actually feel strange if I didn't see him next to me, he looks so peaceful as he has his eyes closed just laying there. He isn't sleeping because he can't, I wonder if he misses being alive.

I hit the snooze button, I just need a few more minutes to lay and do nothing. I got like 4 hours of sleep because of the butt hole beside me. I all of a sudden feel hands on my waist and my back crashing into a hard chest causing my breath to hitch. "Good morning." I hear a husky voice say in my ear and I get a chill down my spine as I try to wiggle out of his grip. "What are you doing?" He says a little annoyed at my actions. When he finally let's go I scramble out of bed and say, "I haven't brushed my teeth, you may not have smelt morning breath in a while but mine is horrid." He stares at me for a second and then chuckles and sits up and grabs me by the waist pulling me on top of him causing me to squeal a little which makes him smirk. I still hate that smirk.

He holds me with both his hands on my waist and my hands on his chest. Why is this happening? It seems like the flirts are coming more and more everyday, he's probably just messing around. I look in his eyes and his smirk is still plastered on his face as he says, "I don't care if you ate fish, I'd still kiss you." Kiss me?? What do you mean?? Then I feel the cold peck on my cheek. I can't contain my curiosity so I put both of my hands on his cheeks and they are so cold I have to take my hands off and lay them back on his chest. He's looking at me so intently that I can almost see a glimmer of fire in his pupils.

"I really need to get ready for my first day of work." I say as I struggle to get up and then he smirks again. I can't take it anymore! "Stop that." I say as I narrow my eyes at him causing his smirk to stretch wider as he asks, "What?" I point to his lips, "That." I say and he chuckles and picks me up like I'm a rag doll and tosses me to the other side of the bed causing me to giggle like a little girl. My dad use to do that to me when I was younger, I thought it was so hilarious. I look over at Joseph as I get up and see his accomplished smile by making me giggle and I slowly shake my head back and forth and walk inside my closet.

After I'm dressed and ready, I start making up my bed. Joseph just randomly disappeared and I haven't heard of him since the little episode an hour ago with him pulling me down and throwing me. Nevermind, I feel hands on my waist AGAIN. But also I feel breathing going down my neck. I freeze, I want to back hand him as hard as I can but then I also wanna see what he's gonna do. Curiosity killed the cat. I whisper, "What are you doing?" He chuckles breathily causing the butterflies in my stomach to come to life. Is it bad that I didn't know those little guys existed til now? "I don't know yet." He whispers into my ear and my legs almost go weak. Geez! Cool it Mak, he's just touching you! "If you tickle me, I swear." I say out loud and I feel him smile and I feel cold lips kiss my ear lobe making me close my eyes. He must be proud of himself, having this affect on me. Wait...what if he's just a player? Is he just messing with my feelings? Cuz I'm pretty sure friends don't do this but heck I'm home schooled.

Then I feel his fingers moving roughly on my waist causing me to get the tickling sensation making me scream very loudly and falling on to my bed. That idiot was just doing that to tickle me! I look at him and see him dieing laughing on the floor as he disappears completely causing me to frown at him. Oh, I'm gonna get him back good. I hear footsteps running up the stairs, grrreeaaat. Now I gotta lie to my parents, AGAIN! I've lied so much for this guy! He owes me. My mom runs frantically in my room, "What's wrong??" She asks and I hear the panic in her voice and I look at her with wide eyes, "I saw a huge spider! I think it crawled under my bed!" I am terrified of spiders, like extremely terrified.

I hold back the chuckle as I see my mom stand in a chair and yell, "Chance! There's a spider!" I get my fear from her. I hear my dad walking upstairs. "Where's it at?" He says as he walks in and takes off one shoe. "It's under my bed! Kill it!" I hate lying to my parents, I really do, but I can't be like, Oh I was screaming because this hot ghost boy tickled me. I mean, I'd look crazy, plus that could put Joseph in jeopardy. Secretly I like making up these random scenarios because my parents get so worked up and it's hilarious.

After watching my dad looking under my bed with a flash light for a while, I look at the time and realize I'm gonna be late for work on the first day if I don't get there soon! I jump off my bed and run into the hallway. "I'm gonna be late if I don't go, I'll be back later. Love you!" I say as I'm about to run downstairs but pause when I hear my mom speak up, "Ok sweetie, we love you too! Don't forget your studies!" She says and I reply with, "I won't!"

I run downstairs and outside. I'm actually excited for my new job, I'm working at a library close to my house. I love books and I love reading! I have an app on my phone called Wattpad where I write! I think this will be a great job. It will definitely be better than my old one, I was a dish washer at a restaurant and I also took out the trash. That wasn't the bad part though, it was the people I worked with. They always made comments about my clothes or my appearance and they wasn't good comments. They would push and shove me and make me do random things for them, especially my boss and his girlfriend. But the weird thing is, she didn't even work there! I didn't complain because we need the extra money.

I arrive at the library and I instantly smell the scent of books when I open the door. I walk to the front desk and see a guy maybe in his mid thirties sitting there. I smile and say, "Hi, I'm Makenzie. Today's my first day." He looks at me and grins but for some reason it makes me feel sick to my stomach. "I've been expecting you." He says as he stands up and walks towards me. My instinct is to take a step back but I ignore it and stand my ground. I nod and say, "What do I need to do?" He points to the right and says, "There's a cart down there with some books, just put em on some random shelves then sweep the floor." I nod and walk to the right quickly as I feel a set of eyes roam my body. Ya pervert!
