Title: Exorcise My Heart
Summary: She had a gift- though she thought it more of a curse. The 'gift' in question- the ability to see and talk to ghosts. She wasn't crazy, though she wish that she were sometimes since that would things easier. Instead, she has to deal with the ghosts, crushes, high school, and let's not forget- not all ghosts were exactly good ghosts especially the one at Sweet Amoris High School- the very ghost that she stirred up.

Prologue:
Olivia:
The first female of each generation in the Hart family had a special gift- the gift to see and talk to the dead. The dead included ghosts, demons, and everything else that normal people couldn't see and was considered 'the living dead.' The legend that was passed down from each generation stated that the gift started when a woman of the Hart family, back in the 18th century, had helped a priest exorcise a dark entity from a house. The ghost that was being held there due to the dark entity was so relived that it could finally go to the light, that the ghost shared that peace and that light with the woman. Thus the gift was started. Though, no one in the family was for sure what the truth was.
Each female of the previous generation would teach the next about how to use the gift- she would teach everything from exorcism to just the correct way to talk to ghosts. My grandmother even taught me about using herbs and plants to heal. She wasn't big on modern medicine and neither was I. It was helpful too since knowing a lot about plants helped me with my garden and using the right essences, herbs, and even candles that could help get rid of ghosts.
Most of all, she would teach how to keep the gift a secret. Maybe if I had done what Grandma had instructed or if I had done what I needed to do then maybe none of it would have happened… I wondered if anyone else in the past had this problem- did Great Grandma have to deal with this? The one before her? Before her?
I think the one thing that everyone before me had in common was that they all thought of it as a gift. I, personally, thought of it as a curse. Now don't get me wrong, I thought it was a gift at first too. I thought that since it was a gift that I should use for the greater good. I thought that I should help all the ghosts so that they could get that 'happy ending' that they wanted. Then I learned that having the gift wasn't all it was cracked up to be- it made you face things that were scary and evil and it was... It could be a curse.
What happened, you might wonder. I'll tell you what happened- I went to Sweet Amoris High School.
