I had 2 put in Chapter 2. I couldnt leave on a cliffy! SO here ya go!
Chapter 2
As Jesse, Sean, Jasmine and I sat in the car, our nice SUV, Sean started asking what we got him for his birthday. We didn't tell him of course. Jesse was going to drop the kids off at school, me at Cee Cee's and he was going to work at the hospital. After about 10 minutes of 'Whaddyagetme?'s we finally pulled up to the school. Sean and Jasmine clambered out of the car, mumbled goodbyes to us and walked towards the gates. We waited to see them walk in when Jesse said:
"You've been quiet."
"Jasmine asked me how we met today."
"Why?"
"Fifteen."
"Oh. What did you say?" He looked at me with wonder and concern.
"I said I found a ghost you on my window seat in my room."
"Funny" He said, relaxing a little. "What did you really say?"
"Nothing. I said I'd tell her after school, I wanted to talk to you first. But I don't know what to do. Should I tell her, should I make something up? She wouldn't understand if she wasn't a mediator. And besides if I told her that I'd have to tell her every thing and-" Jesse cut me off-
"Querida. Breathe, when the time comes you'll know what to say." And he pulled the car out of the parking lot and drove me to Cee Cee's. When we got there, I kissed him goodbye and got out of the car to see Cee Cee sitting on her front porch. Waiting for me.
School was... Interesting. Obviously it was my birthday, so when I got into school, my friend Casey (she's Cee Cee's daughter) gave me presents and a card. She got me a cute, "Now you're 15..." card and a sweet Me to You bear and one of those friends forever bracelets.
"Thanks Casey!" I said. I went to hug her when the home room bell rang, so we had to go inside. We were registered and sent to period one - Spanish. Mom insisted I took Spanish, because of dad, and she said she cursed the day she took French. So I'm sitting in Spanish, thinking about how mom and dad could have met, she will probably tell me some story like he was giving a talk at the Historical Society when they fell in love at first sight. Hmmm. Querida. Querida? That's what my dad calls our mom. I know it's Spanish, but what does it mean? I looked in my backpack for my Spanish dictionary. Q...Qu...Que...? No, not in there.
"Jasmine!" Shouted my Spanish teacher, Señorita Marshina.
"Yes Señorita?" I replied.
"What are you doing?"
"Looking in my Spanish dictionary Señorita."
"Why? I explained all the words"
"Yes, but I was looking for a different word."
"What was it?"
"Querida."
"I know what that means!" Shouted kid from the front of the class.
"Sweetheart..." Said another voice I didn't recognise. I turned in the direction it was coming from. So did Sean. It was a woman, a ghost woman. I have always been able to see ghosts and so has Sean, but I've never noticed her in Spanish before. I looked in her eyes, she looked vaguely familiar. She gave me a puzzled look, like she recognised me too.
"Sweetheart!" Shouted the kid at the front of the room.
"THAT'S ENOUGH!" Shouted Señorita Marshina.
"Awww..." Said Sean and I in unison.
"WHAT IS SO SWEET?" She shouted.
"That's what our dad-" Sean cut me off.
"Calls our mom." He finished. The ghost woman vanished.
