Talking to Your Ghost

Chapter 4:Go Away

Sitting in class I had zoned out until out of the corner of my eye I see someone walk in and stand at the front of the room. I turn my head and see who it was,
"Ok guys, so Aoyama will be joining us again, he has been under rehabilitation and has been released after being evaluated, he has been deemed completely safe..." Aizawa spoke and my face scrunched into a hateful expression. I stood up slowly and looked directly at him, "Do you regret it? Do you think about it? How'd you do it? How long did you kneel over his lifeless body before fleeing,you coward! Huh?! Did you enjoy coming out of no where and attacking him?!" I didn't realize my feet moving til I had him by the collar lifting him off the ground. I felt a hand on my shoulder, I look and see denki and Aizawa, I steeped back with a huff.

"Yes, yes,I snuck up from the left and knocked him down, I had help holding him down from shigiragi, he decayed his arms as I melted his insides with my laser before bashing his head against the ground, I kept going losing control before getting up, I stayed for 20 minutes thinking about what I did and watched his blood flow into a pool...yes at the moment I enjoyed it... I don't enjoy it anymore..." he responded before taking a seat. I stood in disbelief," you stayed for 20 minutes? I found him 20 minutes later then... I found my best friend dead, 40 minutes dead!" I shook with anger and shaking off the two males hands walking out in anger," fuck this!"

I made it to the bathroom and locked the main door wanting to be alone. I stood at the sinks and sighed splashing my face with water before looking in the mirror jumping slightly as I see a bloody kirishima. I cover my mouth tears stinging my tear ducts.
"In your dreams I look normal... out here I look like how I died I'm sorry..." he spoke causing me to shiver before uncovering my mouth," am I going crazy?" I ask and he shakes his head,
"No, I'm just haunting you, denki, and Aoyama only Aoyama sees me like this usually..." I smile slightly and wipe my tears before turning to the ghostly figure which was floating slightly,
"You haunt Aoyama?" I ask and he raises a brow as he wiped blood from his forehead
"Of course, I scare him all the time..."
"He's back..." I look down and hear kiri sigh,
"I know he is... that's why I showed up, I knew you wouldn't handle it well, I mean after all you do have ptsd and he caused it so..."I just nod to cut him off.

I rub my face," I don't want to see him, I'll fucking kill him if I do..." I hear kirishima chuckle causing me to look at him,
"What's so funny?" I roll my eyes
"You're supposed to be a hero, don't kill someone...don't stoop to that level show people what I see in you, a hero!" I smile again and nod," I miss your hugs and your touch... I miss you annoying me... I miss everything... he took that away..." I grumble looking up to see kiri with a pained expression,
"Wait, what's wrong?"
"I only am able to watch you break, I can talk and converse with you, I cannot hold you or comfort you... I watch you crumble and I can't help..." I sigh and give a fake smile.

"I'm sure I'll be fine with time, just don't leave completely..."
"Just don't forget about me and I won't..."
"Deal!" I smile wider and leaned back

Soon it was lunch time and kiri's spirit has been following me around, yet I stayed quiet not to look crazy. I ate in silence beside denki and shinsou. I look over at kiri who was watching everyone, I was the only one who could see him yet how he looked creeped me out. He was like a hologram yet so real, there was dry and fresh blood on his head and face, his hair a mess and his hero uniform on except some pieces and his stomach was like an empty hole I could see through. I gulped as we made eye contact, his eyes were a grayish white and his lip was busted and his nose broken slightly. This is how I found him that day, he was trapped looking like that unless in my dreams.

  Soon I got to my room after school and laid in my bed playing the CD for the 50th time in the last few days. Kiri was at the foot of my bed watching me,"stop staring.."I whisper and hear his ghost chuckle
"You have my shark..." I look beside me on the bed seeing the red plush shark and smile
"It still smells like you, I couldn't just leave it... it helps me remember you..." I respond siting up to look at my ghostly friend.

"I'll always wait for you, ok? You still promise to hold on?" I sighed at the questions and nod holding the plush close
"I'm trying my best, it's not easy though..."
"I never said it would be,bro " i look up and admire the ghoul," you look so fucked..."
"Well...thanks every ghost loves to hear that..." I blush as I see him look at me like I'm stupid.
"Shit I didn't mean it, kiri sorry..." he just laughs at me,
"Bro, I'm dead, I died looking fucked, I agree I look fucked, my head is constantly bleeding and my stomach is a literal void!" He exclaims happily and I chuckle enjoying this, even if I may be crazy and this was just reality slipping, I would never know.
"If I go to sleep will you be there?" I ask hoping for a yes,
"One way to find out..."
