Fading Away

Chapter Five

When I got home, the house was very quiet. Almost too quiet. I walked around the house slowly and heard noise. I've been taking karate classes since I was eight, so hopefully I could kick this guy's ass. Don't judge me.

  I walked into the huge kitchen and grabbed a knife. I held onto it tight and followed the noise.

I was now in a hallway. I could sense the person was near by so I raised the knife and turned my head to the corner. Instead of stabbing the son of a bitch, I got pushed into the wall really hard with my arms above my head.

  Evan..

He now had the knife in his hand pointing it towards my neck. When we both saw each other, he let go of me and lowered the knife.

  "Shit. Evan you scared the hell out of me." I stated, holding my chest. We were both breathing rapidly. "What were you doing?" I asked raising my eyebrows. "Levitating." "I would ask, but then you'd probably break something if you showed me." I smiled.

  "I find it quite odd how you're a ghost and you just did all of that. I mean that knife was basically floating in the air." I gestured towards the knife in his hand. He put the knife down on the counter. "Actually, I just found out today, that I can become visible whenever I want to." he said, crossing his arms. "I also have a guardian angel. His name is Patrick, he says I'm not fully dead yet."

  I sat on top of the kitchen counter. "That's great, but if you're not fully dead, then where are you?" I asked. "He said I'm in the "in between". Part of me is alive and the other part of me, is dead." he said running a his hand through his hair.

"He said that, I'm like this because I haven't decided how I want to end my life." he continued. "I'm not sure if I actually know how." he sighed.

"Does this mean I can touch you?" I asked. "Well go ahead, touch me. I don't bite." he grinned. I looked at him and raised my hand towards his face. He was warm, but yet cold. I felt this shiver down my back when I touched him. I saw that he was staring into my eyes. My face was probably red right now.

  He smiled showing off his gorgeous smile he had. "I like it when you blush. It's cute." he stated.

  "I'm going to my room." I smiled and pushed his chest back. "Not if I get there first." he said running up the stairs. "That's not fair." I said running after him. He went into my room and shut the door in my face. "Evan, open the damn door." I giggled. "This isn't funny." "Then why are you laughing?"

   We both pushed and shoved the door. There was no use, so I sat down on the other side of the door and just talked to him.

   You my friend, are one interesting ghost.
