Ghost

Chpt. 2 Are You My Concience?

It is now morning. Akira yawned when he woke up from his sleep. He sat up and saw the note that was in the package on the floor and the window is open. The note was flying around the room by the wind. "What the..." Akira said to himself. He stood up and closed the window and put the note on his inn table by the bed. He sighed and went in the shower. After that, he put on a pair of boxers, a pair of baggy black pants with chains on the belt loop, and a grey tank top. He then put on a black leather jacket.

His phony started to ring. "Hello?"

"Hey Aki!! This is Yuu. I heard you moved into a condo. What's up?" Akira's best friend since childhood called.

"Hey Yuu. I'm about to head out to the café for breakfast. Wanna come with?" Akira asked.

"Mhm! I've been wanting to go out for breakfast all this week." Yuu responded.

"Okay. Meet me at the café. Ja ne!"

"Ja ne!"

Akira tapped the red icon on his cell phone and stuffed it in his pocket. He left the house with his keys and wallet. As he walked down the street there was harsh winds and the sky started to get dim. "What the hell?" Akira whispered. Then, the people that were walking froze. Then, something started to sing. There was a beautiful but yet creepy tone. It was a voice humming.

"Akira..... nice to finally meet you." The voice said with its somewhat deep and smooth whisper.

"Huh? Who's that?" Akira was startled and looked around his surroundings. No one was moving. Motionless.

"You don't need to know." a chuckle from the ghost.

"Are you my conscience?" Akira asked and looked around again.

"Uhhhh..... well...... you can say that I guess." The voice said. Akira shrugged. He was still a bit scared of the voice. It was no where in sight. Suddenly, it started to get darker and darker until it was the point of no sight at all. Pitch black.

"W-what is this? Where am I?" Akira's voice echoed in the dark room.

"You are in the darkness, Suzuki." The voice said.

"Am I dead, then?" Akira asked again.

"No, sweet-cakes, you aren't dead. You are just in the dark." The voice said and appeared behind Akira. A bit of light showed his face. He had his head down and put his hands behind his back. "Hello...." He said. Akira turned around to the male, who turned out to be short than expected.

"Huh? W-who are you?" Akira tried poking the male, but his finger went right through the male. "Eh?" he tried poking the guy in different places, but couldn't feel a soul from the short male.

"Stop poking me... you aren't able to feel me yet." The male commanded. "My name is... Matsumoto Takanori." Akira tilted his head.

"Wait.... Matsumoto.... Takanori? Were you the guy who---"

"Sent the package? Yes. I was." Takanori said.

"But.... You're deaaaaahhhhhh!!!!! A GHOST?!!! No no... I must be dreaming..." Akira said and rubbed his temples.

"Uhh yeah.... what the...?"

"Wake up Aki... wake up Aki... wake up Aki ..... wake up Aki...." Akira kept repeating that phrase. Takanori rolled his eyes and blew in Akira's face. "Agh! Don't do that!"

"And uhh... I heard what you said about me in that pic of me when I was 25. You said I was adorable?" Takanori moved closer to Akira. Akira was embarrassed and scratched the back of his head.

"Uhh......"

"DONT LIE ME!!! YOU SAID I WAS ADORABLE!!" Takanori raised his voice.

"I-I'm sorry! I did say that!! is that a bad thing?" Akira flinched when Takanori growled at him a bit.

"G-Gomen ne........ I didn't mean to yell.. at... you.." Takanori felt small. He looked down ashamed.

I wish I could hug you right now...

Takanori thought.

"It's okay... uhh... can I leave?" Akira asked and arched an eyebrow.

"Sure...... I'll see you again Akira. Tah tah for now..." Takanori's voice echoed. The next thing you know, Akira was on the ground. He sat up and saw people surrounding him and people are walking again. Akira stood up.

"Uhh... I'm fine. Thanks." Akira bolted away from the crowed and arrived at the café.

"Aki! Over here!" Yuu waved to his friend. Akira walked over to that direction. "what took you so long?"

"Okay! This is what happened--"

"Suzuki!!... don't tell anyone!!!!" The voice warned.

"I uhh... fell and was unconscious.. but I'm fine now." Akira lied and smiled.

"Uhh.. okay. I ordered your coffee." Yuu said and gave Akira his coffee.

"That's much better sweet-cakes!"

"Stop calling me sweet-cakes ass hole!" Akira fussed. Yuu looked at Akira.

"What?" Yuu looked a bit confused.

"Nothing..."

"Ok...ay?" Yuu looked back at his menu and searched for what he wanted.

"Sweet-cakes.." The voice said and giggled.
