Luna's Paranormal Story

Chapter 4

 "What time do you want me to come over to you house?" Scarlett asked me.

     "About 8 if that's okay with you." I said.

"Yeah that sounds good." Scarlett said while she was getting ready to leave.

     "I will see you at 8." I said.

After we left the campus I headed home. I was somehow still getting the feeling of being watched. As usual I pushed that feeling away and had to focus on working on my project. Since it's due Wednesday which gives us 3 days to finish up the project. By the time I got home it was 6:30 pm. So I had a bit of time before Scarlett came. So I relaxed and watched some movies. When she arrived she was crying. I didn't even know why she was crying.

"Scarlett is everything okay?" I asked her because I was worried that something bad happened.

     "No, my boyfriend of 5 years broke up with me." Scarlett said in between sobs.

"Everything will be okay." I said. 

    "He broke up with me over text, because he was cheating on me with a some girl." Scarlett asked me while looking through my fridge. 

"Scarlett eating your feelings away isn't going to help." I said. 

     "What will?" Scarlett asked looking at me puzzled.

"What about watching a movie while I help you with your project." I said hoping that will help her feel better.

    "What type of movie?" Scarlett asked me while wiping away her tears.

"Maybe watching a comedy movie that would make you laugh." I said.

     "Okay, can we also eat something?" Scarlett asked me looking through the fridge again.

"Yeah, do you want me to order pizza?" I asked her hoping she would yes because I really wanted pizza.

    "Yeah, can we get a cheese pizza? Scarlett asked me.

"Sure." I said.

     While I was calling the pizza place. I asked her if she wanted to sleep at my house. Since I knew she wouldn't drive safely because of what just happened. And also I have a guest room that she can stay in.  After I ordered the cheese pizza, I went to ask her if she wanted to stay the night. I found her on the couch trying to pick out a movie on Netflix. 

"Hey Scarlett do you want to stay the night here?" I asked her.

      "If that's okay with your roommate or whoever you live with." Scarlett said with this concerned look.

"I don't live with anyone." I said.

     "Can I be your roommate?" Scarlett asked me.

"I live with my boyfriend, but since me and him aren't together anymore I see no point in staying there." Scarlett said.

   "Sure, but how long did you date him?" I asked her hoping it wouldn't make her cry.

"Me and him were dating since sophomore year of high school." Scarlett said trying to hold back from crying.

    "Sorry for asking that question." I said feeling bad for saying that.
