Chapter 2

Collins stared at her. "April?"

She smiled. "What is it, Collins?"

"Why the hell are you here?"

April's face fell. "Apparently, it wasn't my time to die. But I couldn't stay with you all anymore, after Roger murdered Aly…" She gasped and covered her mouth, her eyes wide.

"Woah, wait just a minute. Roger killed Alyssa?"

April flinched. "I didn't just say that, ok?" she said through clenched teeth.

"But why would Roger kill his own kid? It makes no sense…"

"It wasn't intentional! He was frustrated! And high. That didn't help. So he shook her…"

"Until she stopped?" Collins finished. He was disgusted at the thought.

"I stopped with the smack, in my defense, when I realized I was pregnant. But Roger…"

"He didn't stop until after you died," Collins told her.

"Yes, I know. But I'm not here to tell you about all this. I'm technically not supposed to even reveal myself to mortals. But I had to, and so did she."

"Who?"

"You'll see," said April slyly. "Follow me." She glided a few feet, and then turned back to Collins.

He sighed and followed her. "Lead on…"

Mark had a chilling feeling that something was wrong, leaving Collins alone. Maureen was too busy trying to find some proof of Mimi's "ghost", and Joanne and Roger were helping her. So that left Mimi, who was positively terrified at the thought of being in the house at all.

"Meems…" said Mark quietly, tapping her shoulder.

Mimi started, but relaxed when she saw Mark. "What?"
"Collins… I have this awful feeling that something…"

"Is going wrong!" they both finished.

"Should we go back with him?" asked Mimi, pulling her black zip-up sweater around her thin frame tighter.

"If some go, we ALL go," said Mark.

"Then let's go!" said Mimi. "I know I saw something…"

"Roger, Mo, Jo…" said Mark, tapping them each on the shoulder in turn, "we should go back for Collins…"

Maureen rolled her eyes and sighed. "Fine, let's go."

Roger and Joanne nodded.

"HE'S GONE!" Mimi shrieked when they got back to where Collins had been. "THE GHOST KILLED HIM!"

"Mimi, if Collins were dead, there would be a body," Roger pointed out.

"Then she kidnapped him!"

"Let's think rationally. Mimi, what exactly did this 'ghost' look like?" asked Joanne.

"She was short… and she looked like she was about 20. Her hair was REALLY long, and she wore this white robe thing, like what angels wear. She had a bunch of silver bracelets covering her arms. I couldn't tell you colors because she's a ghost and ghosts aren't colored."

"Ok then…" said Joanne, clearly not believing her.

Mimi mumbled something about lawyers being dumbasses.

"Excuse me?"

Mimi smiled innocently.

Maureen rolled her eyes.

"… Just around the corner…" she heard someone down the hall say.

She knew that voice. "It's April…" she said.

Everyone stared at her.

"It's April. April's the ghost."
