Another Life ( A Brent Rivera Fanfiction)

Awkward.....

*RECAP*
I love you, but you can't know.....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It's been a couple of days since that happened. Things between me and Brent have been sort of awkward. I don't know how to act around him anymore now that I've realized my feelings for him.

On another note I'm not working for Mrs. Gold anymore because schools about to start back and she's decided to take some time of, so that she can help Holly get ready for her first year in school. I really dread starting at a new school to be honest, but I guess it will be nice to talk to a living, breathing person.

I am currently sitting in my room reading a book. It's called The Fault in Our Stars, by John Green. It's a really great book and I can't put it down.

Suddenly, I jumped up from my seat and slung my book up in the air in fright, because Brent decided to look over my shoulder and out of no where ask, "Wat'cha reading?"

"Ooh my god Brent why did you do that?! You scared me to death."

"I'm sorry, but that was funny. Hahaha omg you should have seen yourself jump!" He laughed at me while I stood glaring at him.

"Ooh quit giving that look Rose. Your alive right?"

"Yes, but you scared me while I was reading my favorite book. Your so mean." I whined to him.

"Ooh I'm sorry. Does whittle Rose need a hug?" He spoke to me in a voice you would use while talking to a kid or animal.

I pouted and nodded. He walked over to me and wrapped his long arms around my waist. I melted into his touch while wrapping my arms around his neck and playing with his hair.

This feels so natural. Sometimes I even forget that he is a ghost. We stood there rocking slowly back and forth and just enjoying each other's company.

"Hey Brent?" I whispered

"Yeah?" He whispered back, responding me.

"What are you going to do while I'm in school?"

"Uh I don't know really. Probably mess around with your mom." He chuckled. I pulled away from him and nodded to show I understood. We stood for a few minutes looking at each other and was interrupted by a car door slamming in the drive way. Indicating my mother was home from work.

I ran down the stairs and greeted her at the door and offered to help her carry the bags of groceries she had.

"So how was your day Hun?" Mom spoke up.

"It was okay just sat around watching tv."

"Did you read some of your book?"

"Ooh yeah I did it's pretty good." I responded

"That's good." Then it was silent so I just walked back to my room where Brent was still standing looking into the distance.

"Hey Brent what are you looking at?" He just kept staring at the wall with a pained look on his face.

"What's going to happen when we find out what happened to me? Am I going to move on Rose? I would be leaving you and I can't do that." I didn't know he was so scared about this.

" Brent it's going to be okay you need to know what caused your death."

"Rose I don't want to know I just want to stay here with you."

"Brent that won't work I will grow older and move out and you will still be the same." I starting tearing up thinking about it. He just nodded and disappeared through my wall and I didn't see him for the rest of the evening.
