CHAPTER SIXTEEN - Emotions

| Melissa's POV |

A few hours passed and Toast was well rested. He had showered, wearing fresh clothing that wasn't ripped completely. Ghost was starting to wake up, groaning in pain as he sat up slowly. Toast walked to his partner's side, worried about him like an older brother would.

"How are you feeling, sir?" He asked, the worry and concern rung clear in his voice.

Ghost only responded with another groan, holding his head like it hurt more than anything. Billy was still asleep in the chair, none of us wanted to wake him up just yet.

I sat awkwardly on the window seat, staring out of the broken window. I was deep in thought, staring without realising. A sudden flow of sadness had over come me. I have no idea where it came from.

Toast looked up at me, his brows raised with curiosity. "Miss?" He called to me softly, I did not turn around or flinch.

Ghost nodded at Toast, telling him to come over and check on me. Toast got up and did just that. He placed his hand on my shoulder. I did not jump. I just felt empty.

I turned my head to him, my purple eyes darkened with my mood, sadness was clearly written over my expression. What has gotten into me? Why was I suddenly like this?

"Melissa... You OK?" He asked once more, concern clear in his voice this time. How can a stranger care so much about me? I was no significance to him or the others. I was just a victim to a friend's murder.

I shook my head, not in the mood to physically speak, even if I was able to.
Toast looked at me, as if he was scanning me or something. His concern turned to confusion.

"Please just answer me" he demanded calmly. His firm expression was enough to break me. I had no idea what had gotten into me. I just...cried.

I cried until I passed out.

-----------------------

My eyes opened slowly. My body was softly jerking. It seemed like one of the guys had carried me to the van. 

A bigger jerk had shocked me, waking me up more. The car clock read 1:04pm. Was I really out for that long?

A soft groan caught Toast's attention. "Afternoon" he greeted simply, focusing on the road.

"hm.... How long have I been out for?" I asked, my voice groggy from just waking up. A soft smile stretched on Toast's face.

"about 7 hours" he said simply. My eyes widened at the number. Seven hours?!

"Seriously?" I squeaked, astonished by how long I was out for. I have no idea what was wrong with me today. The sudden way of sadness then passing out. It didn't really make any sense. I wasn't bipolar as far as I was aware.

Toast nodded a 'mhm' at me, confirming that he wasn't joking or anything. I slumped into my seat, trying to figure out what the deal was.

Was it because of Ghost being around? Did he trigger my subconscious to be sad enough that I'd cry until I pass out?

The rest of the ride was quiet. I assumed Ghost and Billy were sleeping in the back and Toast and I were calmly relaxing. I was still confused but staring out the van window was quite relaxing. I let out a deep sigh, wondering where my life was going.

I wasn't going to be around these lot for longer than I have to right? I mean, we weren't close. We only met because j had lost a friend that was murdered by one of these strangers. Now I am riding in their van after a long trip searching for Ghost who seemed to be on a murderous rampage.

I was still exhausted. Both emotionally and physically. I had never felt like this before around a bunch of people. Come to think of it, I have never really been around more than one person before so this was all a new experience for me. Especially a bunch of weirdos that have paranormal issues.

My mind was wandering the more I looked don't onto the road. I wasn't used to this scenery still. My hometown wasn't much like this.

Was it time to move else where, away from these people?
