My Dream Guy

Thank God.

      I heard Michael arrive at the house with police, they charged upstairs. I stayed hidden in the basement because I wasn't sure if it was safe for me to come out. I sat on the floor under the stairs waiting. I heard things being moved upstairs, I remained quiet on the cold concrete floor. I didn't dare move. I didn't want to die today. 

      I heard sirens pulling away and someone screaming my name. I couldn't tell who it was, the voice was muffled. I got up and headed up the steps. I walked out the door to see a body bag and Lix standing at the front door. I'm assuming that the body bag had Parker's body cased inside. Tears rolled down my face and I ran over to Lix and hugged him. He told me to relax.

      "Lix, I heard a gunshot."

      "Calm down it was the guy, he took his own life."

      "Then where's Parker?"

      "He went to the bathroom to clean the guy's blood off of him."

      I hugged Lix tighter and he brought me upstairs to Parker. He was shirtless and cleaning his chest off. His abs glistened under the bright bathroom light. I broke free of Lix and hugged Parker. He hugged me really tight. It felt like time had frozen. It was just me and Parker, we were the only two people that mattered at the moment. 

      It's like one of those stupid romantic scenes in a movie come to life. God, I hate romance. Parker and Lix had to go to the police department to answer a few questions, I was left home alone. I wasn't scared because I can handle myself and the guys know that. I want to go house hunting. I don't want to continue living in Lix's house because I feel like I'm taking up his space. I took out my laptop and began searching for condos in the area. 

      I've always wanted to live in a condo never a house. I want to have a lot of neighbors that I am close with, in case I ever need anything. That way I have people to rely on and then people can rely on me as well. I also won't have to worry about feeling lonely because I'll have neighbors to go to for company. I enjoy the company. I can't sit by myself in a room because I'll get bored and lonely and I'll have scary thoughts in my head. I'll make dumb decisions. 

      I browsed condos while waiting for Lix and Parker to return home. After 3 hours I got bored. When I get bored I get anxious. I grabbed my leather jacket and car keys. I needed to get in a car and feel the wind on my face. I decided to call an old friend to meet me at the track. 

      I got in the car and started driving. The friend I am meeting is a former ghost girl as well. The same thing happened to her. She became human again. She and I were assigned to the same case in Purgatory. She played her role like it was real life, eventually, it became her real life. She owns a hotel and condo complex about a half hour away from the track. Her husband Brock is a designer for the stadium I race at. I can't wait to see her again. 

Sry this is a short chapter. I've been busy with school and other stories. I'm also having a hard time writing this story so your ideas would be greatly appreciated.
