Paper Balls

Chapter 36

Sam's POV

I announce the sudden change that is going to happen on Colby and I's channel. "I'll do it with you." Jake says. "I'm down to do the scary creepy stuff you two do all of the time." I give him a smile. "Yessss. Now, I need one other person." I say looking over at Elton, Aaron, and Corey. "Sorry, I'm not into that stuff." Aaron says and walks out of the kitchen. "That's fine Aaron!" I yell to him.

"I have my own video series to worry about. "I can't two at once. Sorry Sam." Elton says as we cooks dinner. I look over at Corey with a pleading eyes. "I don't know. Are we going to do like 6 rituals at each place?" He asks. "No. I promise that we will do one or two." I say.

Corey thinks for a little bit, then nods. "Yes! I'll go tell Colby. Do you any of you know where he went?" I ask. "He went to the back." Corey says pointing towards the pool. I walk through the back door and see Colby sitting on the platform. I smile as I see him looking up at the sky. Probably thinking of something serious, he always does that when he looks up at the sky.

Or maybe he's thinking about breaking up with you. Colby wouldn't do that. He's so nice and caring. That's what everyone has you thinking. And everyone has a side that they don't want you to see. Greetan, just leave me the fuck alone. Oh but I can't Sam. You see, I'm stuck in your head. I can't leave you. I'm stuck with you forever.

I climb up the steps and onto the platform next to Colby. "Whatcha thinking about Colbs?" I ask. "I'm just thinking, what if we really are haunted? And if we go to these haunted places, what if it's just the spirits that are following us around and make the places seem haunted?" He says looking at me.

I don't say anything. I look up at the sky. I sigh and look back over at Colby. "I don't know Colby. We are actually going to have to into investigation on this. We should try at least two places before we decided on our last result." I say putting my hand on his shoulder. He smiles.

But soon, that smile fades. "I just don't want to get our friends to get hurt when they are with us." He says. I smile softly. "Colby, I promise that we will try our best to not them get hurt by anything that happens to us. I say grabbing his hand. "I met to tell you this when I got out here, but you started to get worried so I thought I would save it for after." I say.

"Well what is it?" He asks. "Oh right." I laugh. "Corey and Jake said that they would come with us. But we can only do one to two rituals because Corey doesn't want to do too many of them." I laugh. "Alright, that's fine with me." He says. "Let's go inside, it's starting to get cold out here." I say getting down from the platform.

"Sam, this is California. It's never cold." Colby laughs and gets down from the platform as well. "Yes it does, when it's night time, sometimes. It rained like the second day that we moved in here. And I've heard that it never rains in California." I say. I open the door and walk inside.

"True but whatever, nerd." Colby rolls his eyes. "Bitch." I mumble. "What was that?" Colby turns to me. "Bitch!" I yell. Colby crosses his arms. His eyes start to go dark a little. Oh shit. I start to run. "ELTON! HELP ME! COLBY IS CHASING ME AGAIN! GET THE BROOM!" I scream. I run around the house. I hear a door open so I'm guessing it was Elton's. 

"WHERE ARE YOU?!" Elton shouts into the house. "NEAR THE LIVING AREA!" I scream and continue running. "You're going to pay for that!" Colby yells behind me. I run towards the kitchen again and see Elton. I jump on top of the counter and screech. 

Elton jumps in front of the island and starts swinging the broom at Colby. "Get back you heathen." Elton says and bops Colby on top of the head. "Ouchies." Colby whines. Elton and I roll our eyes. "Oh quit being a big baby. It was just a little bop on the head. You're lucky that I didn't do a baseball swing into your face." Elton laughs. 

"Thanks Elton! You're my favorite Uncle." I get off the counter and walk by Colby, still rubbing his head. "I'm like your only Uncle." Elton laughs behind me.
