Hi! Back with a new chapter. Hope you guys like it. Also, I'm going to be going back and forth with Ray's POV and Regina's just so you guys know. ;)
RRRRIIIIIINNNGGG! I groan as I hear the screaming of the alarm, signaling us that once again we need to get up and catch another ghost.
Yep. It's been three crazy months since my first day here. It's been great but this I think is the one part I don't like. I and the rest of the guys only get about 2 or 3 hours of sleep each night and it's wearing me out!
I sit up and look around the room. Winston and Egon are getting dressed while still half-asleep and Peter is holding on to his pillow and holding it over his head, trying to drown out the ringing. I smile at his poor attempts. And lastly I look over to Ray' bed but I quickly see he isn't in it. I tilt my head in confusion but the confusion turns to laughter when I see the reason why he isn't in his bed. He was on the floor, rubbing the back of his head. I get up still laughing and head to the bathroom. Ray looks up, shoots me glare, and screams,
"It's NOT funny!"
I laugh even harder when I hear him scream. As I step into the shower, I continue to smile. Out of all the guys, Ray is the one I get along with the most. Sure the rest of the guys are like the brothers I never had but Ray to me is different. I feel different around him then I do if I'm around Pete or Egon. I feel happy, giddy; I instantly get butterflies in my stomach. I think I might be sick or something because I know what all those emotions equal but I don't want to believe it's actually true. I mean, me? Being attracted to one of my best friends? And considering who that friend is, I don't want to feel anything for him that way. I know I'll be hurt if I do. The guy is practically married to his work and would never have time to even consider me having feelings for him. Plus, I don't even know if he has feelings for me. But I can't seem to stop my feelings from resurfacing whenever I'm around him. Oh, well I need to face the facts. I'm screwed.
Ray's P.O.V
I put my hands on her thighs as she continues to sit on my lap. Her hands snake up my bare chest and suppress a shiver. Her hands then wraps around my neck and she dips her head down as she begins to place light, soft kisses on my neck and jawline. I moan as I feel her nibble on my ear lobe and I groan even louder when she whispers in my ear all the things she wants from me. She then puts her hands, her soft, smooth, perfect hands on my chest once more and softly pushes me down to lay on my back. I gaze up at her as she hovers over my body. She smiles seductively and grates her hips against mine. I moan as I feel how wet she is. I place my hands on her hips for her to stop and lean up slowly. She leans down, coping me and as we lean closer, our lips come closer each other's. Her lips hover over mine and -
RRRRIIIIIINNNGGG! I quickly open my eyes, shocked and surprised, and tumble out of bed, hitting my head in the process. I groan as I sit up and rub my head. I look up and see Pete covering his face with a pillow while Egon and Zee are trying not to fall asleep while getting dressed. I then hear laughter and I turn to see Regina giggling at my appearance. I see her get up and walk towards the bathroom. I shoot a glare in her direction and scream, "It's NOT funny!" She then laughs harder as I hear the door to the bathroom close.
Even with the door shut, I continue to stare at it. I sigh heavily as I get up and begin to get dressed. 'Another dream. That's the third one! I have GOT TO STOP!' I scold myself. These past two months I have been… well… fantasizing about Regina in… well, less than innocent ways. But, I mean, it's not like I want to! Or do I? No! No! No, I don't! I shouldn't She's my friend and either way, I doubt she would feel anything for me. She would never see a man like me as attractive. I mean, Regina is amazingly beautiful, smart, funny, surprisingly loves ghosts as much as I do (which I never thought would be possible), and the first woman Peter has hit on but won't go out with him! So yeah, in my eyes, she is probably the most perfect person in the world. But I want to stop having these feelings for her. I know if I don't, it would probably get in the way of my job, I would probably end up with a broken heart knowing she wouldn't feel the same, and if she DOES find out, she would never want to talk to me again! 'Whatever, I'll ask Pete what I should do. He'll know' I think to myself.
"So where are we going?" Regina asks Egon who continues to look down at the PKE reader in his hand.
"We got a call from a couple who live near an old warehouse that's been abandoned for about 10 years but they say they've been hearing a LOT of noise coming from inside. It's on 69th." Egon explains.
"Oh. Alright." She says turning to look out the window.
As we quickly drive to our destination, we struggle to keep our eyes open. 'Man, this sleep loss is killing me.' I think to myself. As my eyelids begin to droop, I feel a weight being put on my right shoulder. I look down and my eyes widen. Right there is Regina leaning her head on my shoulder, fast asleep. I quickly feel the blood rush to my face and I thank God that it is still dark out. I look up and see Peter looking at me with a raised eyebrow.
"What!?" I yell-whisper, annoyed.
"Oh, nothing." Peter says, smirking. I frown at him but it quickly disappears when we make a hard left and Regina moves closer to me while squeezing my arm. I feel face burn and pray for us to get where we're going quicker.
Regina's P.O.V
"Regina. Regina. Regina!" Ray calls me. I quickly open my eyes and look up to then lock eyes with Ray.
"Hey." I say sleepily. Ray smiles.
"Hey. We're here. C'mon." he says while pulling me to my feet. I stand in front of him and we just stare at each other smiling.
"Okay, c'mon. Let's go. I want to get this over with." Peter says with a scowl on his face. We both then turn to him and Ray rolls his eyes and chuckles while following Pete outside. I shake my head and sigh. 'Damn you Peter.' I think and follow them outside.
When we go inside, Egon begins to scan the area with the PKE reader.
"Wow, what a dump." Winston says beside me. I chuckle in agreement.
"I know. But what did you expect from an abandoned warehouse." I say. He sighs and shrugs his shoulders. I then walk over to Egon and try to look over his shoulders. I stand on my tippy-toes and strain to see over his shoulders. But finally he speaks.
"I'm getting signals of 5 class sixes. Two east and three west." He says.
"Well, then we split up right?" Peter says.
"Yes. That would be the obvious choice." Egon answers back. I snigger and Peter shoots me a glare and I instantly stop.
"Ok, so um… " Peter begins but stops as if thinking of something, then he smiles and it's not a smile that I happen to like. It's a smile that means he is thinking something devious.
"Pete, what are you thinking?" I asked cautiously.
"Oh, it's just since you and Ray are always together when we have to split up, I thought maybe he could come with me this time." He said while reaching out and pulling him beside him.
"Alright then. Winston. Regina. You're with me. Come on." Egon said while holding the PKE reader in front of him. I glance back at Ray, who's looking at me in disappointment and I sigh and follow Egon and Winston.
Ray's P.O.V
I walk along side Peter, looking down at my own PKE reader in my hand. Out of the corner of my eye I see Pete looking at me with curiosity. I glance at him and I then go back to the reader.
"What is it Peter?" I ask, wanting to know why he is staring at me.
"Oh finally! I thought you were NEVER going to notice!" he stops walking so I stop as well.
"So aren't you going to tell me?" he asks me, smiling.
"Tell you what?"
"Oh c'mon! You know what!"
"No actually I don't know what."
"Ughh!" He groans while rolling his eyes. "I want to know what's going on between you and Gina!"
I blush. "What'd you mean?"
"You know what I mean. C'mon, can you not make it any more obvious than it already is? We all know you are into her." He says.
I blush even harder, felling my face on fire. "Peter, what are you talking about? There is nothing going on!"
"Oh yes there is! Don't lie, I can read it all over your face!"
My eyes shift from left to right, trying not to look Peter in the eyes. I sigh. "Alright! Alright! You got me!" I say defeated.
"Ha ha! I knew it!"
"Okay, but what do I do? What is she doesn't like me back? What if I tell her how I feel and she hates me after that? What if – "
"Whoa, whoa, whoa. Calm down! Ok, 1. Don't worry so much, you sound like an eleven year old and 2. Just TALK to her!"
"WHAT! Talk to her?! No way. I'd be too nervous. Anyway, what would I say to her?"
"Well, uh… " Peter started saying but then at that moment, CRASH!
"What the - !" We both exclaim. Then two orange ghosts come flying in fast. Towards us.
"Alright! Finally some action!" I say happy to change the subject. "C'mon!"
"Wha – wait, hold on, and don't think this conversation is over!" Peter screams after me.
Please rate and review. :-D I will probably update in a couple of days. Later!
