The Ghost Of You

A Chance

Camila's Pov

Maybe she's the answer to everything

I was sitting on Lauren's bed watching her sleep and thinking why is she the only one who can see me.

She opened her eyes and jumped out of the bed making her fall on the floor.

"Fuck...!" She muttered

"Are you okay? I asked and she scoffed.

"I told you to stop scaring me and to fucking leave me alone" She said standing up.

"I wasn't scaring you.. I was just thinking" I said laying on her bed

"Thinking of what? You fucking startled me. Now I'm wide awake" She said with her arrogant voice and picked up her phone. "4:32am..great" Lauren muttered and grabbed a towel.

"I was thinking of why you're the only one who can see me.. and I'm sorry for scaring you I didn't mean to.. just please... help me" I said and she shook her head.

"I don't help anyone....now fuck off" Lauren said walking out the door.

You'll help me..

Just wait and see

Lauren's Pov

I was in the shower washing my hair when the water stopped

"What the fuck..." I turned it off and on a few times and the water started running again.

I was washing my face when I heard a girl's cry echoing in the bathroom. I popped my head out the shower curtains but no one was there.

Shit shit shit

I quickly washed the soap off my body and turned off the shower.
I was about to stepped out when I noticed there was a silhouette of a girl behind the curtain.

"What the fuck.." I quickly pushed the curtain aside and there was no one there.

I grabbed my towel and wrapped it around my body as I walk towards the sink. I can feel my heart beating out of my chest and my legs are shaking.

I fucking hate this

I ignored what's happening hoping that it'll stop. I grabbed my toothbrush and looked at the mirror.

A girl was standing behind me in my reflection with blood all over her face.

"No!! No!! Mom!!" I fell on the floor and hugged my knees.

"Go away... go away..." I whispered

I heard the doorknob clicking and it burst open revealing my mom.

"What happened?" She asked running towards me and  examining my body.

"There was someone here" I said and she hugged me.

"What do you mean? There's no one here" she said looking around the bathroom.

"There's a girl standing behind me in the mirror. I saw it!' I said and she nodded.

"God.. you're so cold..let's go" Mom said helping me stand up and walked out the bathroom.

"You're seeing things honey.. are you on something?" She asked and i frowned.

"You think I'd get high at 4 in the morning?.. and I don't do drugs" I said walking inside my room and slamming the door.

I was getting dressed when Camila popped her head through my closet.

"Holy shit!.. I told you to stop doing that!" I yelled and she giggled.

"And you're the one freaking me out in the bathroom, right? You're such an ass" I hissed and she nodded.

"You look so scared" Camila laughed and I glared at her.

"Don't you fucking do that again!" I yelled but she kept laughing.

"You even called your mom" She giggled

"Just... leave me alone!" I yelled and she stopped laughing.

"How about this.. you help me figure out why I'm still here and I'll leave you alone, deal?" Camila said sitting on my bed.

I sat on the bed beside her and think about her offer for a moment. I looked at her and she was staring at me with hopeful eyes. Her eyes are brown..like chocolate brown which is....alluring.

"You're staring" She said smiling at me.

I cleared my throat and averted my gaze " Fine.. I will help you.. just stop with the scaring and the surprise pop ups and shit" I said getting up from the bed and she nodded.

"Oh my god.. Thank you!" She said jumping up and tried to wrap her arms around me but they just went through my body.

"Fuck.. that's cold" I said rubbing the chills on my arms

"I'm sorry" she said giggling.

"So where do we start?" I asked but she looked down.

"I don't know.." She whispered

"What do you mean you don't know?" I asked looking at her

"I just ...don't" She muttered.

This is not gonna be easy

I sighed sitting on the bed.

"May be we should start with uhm you telling me your story" I said and she shook her head no.

"I-I don't even know who I am.." Camila said sitting on the bed beside me. "When I uhhh.. woke up from the dark.. All I can remember was my name"

Poor thing

"Okay.." I whispered.

"I was so scared..no one can see me. I was yelling and screaming but no one can hear me" She said and tears started rolling down her face.

"Okay... I'll help you okay.." I said looking at her eyes.

"Let's just start with something simple.. so your name is Camila and..do you know where you live?" I asked and she shook her head no.

"Oh.. but I remember my mom. When I saw her I remembered her" She said and I smiled at her.

"That's good..you remember when you see someone you know...So do you know where your mom is?" I asked but she shook her head no.

"I've been wandering around but nothing helps me..I've been asking people but they can't hear and see me..it sucks. I don't even know what to do." She said rubbing her temples.

"So ghosts have headaches too?" I asked and she giggled.

"No.." Camila said smiling at me.

I don't know why but my heart is very fond of her. Maybe because she looks sweet and gentle and charming.

"This is gonna take long." I sigjed "Okay. I'm gonna go to school now to think and do some research.. you can come if you want" I said and she nodded.

"You can help me cheat on my tests" I said giggling

"Nuh uh.. not happening" She said smiling at me.

......

I want a ghost friend..
