"I'm here in my car, wasting my gas, with you sitting half naked-" Ricky interrupted Shawn.

"No! It's one of those hospital gown things." He said tugging at the bottom. Shawn just stared at him.

"With you sitting half naked in my car. Why?"

"Just drive me to your stupid cabin." Ricky pouted. Shawn didn't reply, but he stepped on the gas. They sat silently as they drove to the cabin near the lake.

When they arrived at the cabin Ricky jumped out and ran for the door. "Dude! Cover up your ass! I don't need to see that!" Shawn shouted, covering his eyes with his hands.

"Well quite looking at it then!" Ricky shouted back, moving his hands to cover himself up. He turned around and wiggled his eyebrows.

"NO!" Yelled Shawn, after locking the door he walked up to Ricky. "Stop that right now." Ricky laughed and reached for the spare key under the doormat.

"You really shouldn't keep it there it's a super obvious place." Ricky walked in the door and flipped on the light switch. Shawn rolled his eyes.

"So why do we have to talk here of all places, I mean I'm pretty sure that we could have just-"

Ricky interrupted him. "Soikindofescapedfromahospitalandidontknowifthatsillegalornotandthisghostisstalkingmeanditgotkilledwheniwasheresoineedyoutohelpmefindthedeadbodyofalittlegirl." Shawn blinked.

"Yea, you're gonna have to slow that down."

"So I escaped from the hospital, probably illegally and there is this ghost that keeps following me and I need your help to find her body at the bottom of the lake." Ricky sat down on the couch.

"Yup, ok, let's get you back to the hospital buddy." Shawn said, taking Ricky's shoulder.

"Dude I'm serious." Ricky started to tell Shawn everything. From the moment he awoke in that boat, to right now. "Feel my pulse." Shawn slowly reached out and put the tip of his fingers on his friend's wrist.

His heart skipped a beat, while Ricky's was non-existent. Holy shit. "Huh." He nodded slowly. "So what's your plan to do this?" He asked, leaning over and putting his elbows on his knees.

"Oh, um, I'm not really sure I didn't plan this far." Ricky shrugged. "I guess we could, maybe....yea. I have no idea." Shawn sighed.

"Smart, well I guess we'll be here all night." He said, making himself comfortable on the chair across from Ricky.
