CHAPTER 3
"Er… hey", I said, turning my head at Joe as he drove along the road. "Do you know that guy?".
"What guy?", Joe asked with a puzzled look. "I only saw you there by yourself, what were you doing there anyways, with the lights off?".
"I… don't know", I said, slowly, not making any sense of it. "You mean, you didn't see that guy I accidentally bumped into?". Joe shook his head in response and glanced at me.
"I didn't see anyone with you", he said. "You were just standing there looking like you just saw a ghost or something".
That's when it hit me, he must be a ghost. But then… why wasn't he glowing like Troy? It just didn't add up, he was standing next to me and told me that someone was looking for me but he couldn't of known that if I didn't hear Joe calling my name or something. He just walked off when Joe found me but when I looked, he disappeared.
"What was he wearing?", Joe asked when I snapped out of my thoughts. "I think I might know that person by the clothes they wear, not sure". We had to stop when the traffic light turned red.
"Oh well", I said, trying to remember what the handsome guy was wearing. "He was wearing a-".
Before I could go into explaining what he was wearing, someone tapped onto Joe's window. As Joe pressed the button for the window to slide down, that person bent down to level with the window and I just couldn't believe how much California has luck with the hottest guys. Seriously, this someone looked so handsome. But he looked so familiar that suddenly an image of him appeared in my head. The dream. That's the guy!
"Hey Purcell", the guy said, only his voice wasn't as smooth as the guy I bumped into in the library. "Recognized your car, thought I'd see how things are goin'".
"Hey Wolf", Joe replied. "Not bad here".
When he finally realized that there was someone on the passenger seat, he grinned and asked, "Who's the girl?".
Joe turned his head to me and said, "Cass, this is Ethan. We go to school together". Then he turned to Ethan. "And Ethan, meet my cousin, Cassandra, Cassie or Cass". They both chuckled.
Ethan reached his hand inside the car across to me to shake. I shook his hand and said, "Hey, nice to meet you". I couldn't help blushing, felt so stupid.
"Likewise", he said with a smile. "You guys heading somewhere?".
"Yeah", Joe replied. "To the shores". In other words, the beach.
"Sweet", Ethan said. "Catch you guys there".
He grinned at me and left, just in time for the light to turn green. Ethan Wolf is one hottie but there's another guy who I don't know his name. He's so mysterious yet so beautiful, his skin was white almost as white as milk and his eyes seemed to take a effect on me that it was like he could feel something inside of me. But, this Ethan guy, he's the opposite.
"So", Joe said as he turned into a street. "Tell me, you gotta boyfriend back at home?". Oh great, I hate these questions. I mean like, what am I suppose to say? Oh yeah, my boyfriend is in my room and he's waiting for me, oh, and did I mention that he died twenty years ago? So what if I have a boyfriend, who just so happens to be dead! Okay, I do care but I see no way of fixing that.
"Don't have one", I sighed. Troy, I thought.
"What?", Joe scoffed. "I mean, how can my beautiful cousin, not have a boyfriend?".
"Well". Jeez, how do I explain this one? "I just haven't found the right one yet and I don't want to waste time on guys who only want sex".
"Yeah", Joe nodded. "We got a lot of those, so why not go out with Ethan?".
"Um, what?", I said, obviously caught off guard by the question.
He chuckled and parked in a car park from the beach, the scenery looked so beautiful especially with the topless boys walking around.
We got out and started walking on the sand with our shoes off. It felt so good to get my toes swished around in the sand, the wind passing through my face and the view of the cutest guys of California to boot.
"Yo Joe!", a familiar voice called out. Ethan.
Joe turned around and waved. "Hey man". I turned around to look and I had no idea what was wrong with me because Ethan's body was just like, wow. He had his shirt off and was running towards us and it was almost as if time had slowed down and his muscles seemed to be pumping up and down, up and down and so on. His six pack definitely was a warning for me to not look because I already have a boyfriend.
As Ethan caught up to us, he was breathing in and out then looked from me to Joe. "Dude, the guys are asking for you to come play some football with us".
"Sweet", Joe nodded. "You coming, Cass?".
"Uh, no", I said, shaking my head. "I think I'll just walk around and chill out".
"Don't worry, man", Ethan smiled. "I'll keep her company". Oh crap.
"K, I'll see you later Cass", Joe said and ran off.
And so, me and Ethan, left alone, picked up walking from where me and Joe left off. We were quiet for a moment and I didn't want him to think that I felt weird around him - which I did - so I said, "You didn't have to keep me company".
"Nah", he said, shaking his head. "Need a break myself, so, how long will you be in Cali?".
"The whole of my summer vacation", I sighed.
"Oh", he said. "How come your not spending it back at home with your friends?".
"Well, my parents are away on a business trip, my brother is off with his friends going on the Big OE and my sister is off in college and so", I explained. "So, since there's no one home to look after me - which I so don't need anyone to look after me - they sent me here".
"Well, it ain't all that bad here", Ethan said. "It's too bad that I won't be able to see you in school after summer, I really want to know you more".
I looked up at him and he was already looking down at me, his hair was just like that guy's hair in my dream. I just didn't know why Ethan was in my dream, in front of the abandoned house. It just didn't make any sense at all. What does he got to do with the abandoned house?
"If you say that, it'll be like your jinxing it", I laughed, nervously.
"What if that was my intention?", he challenged with a grin.
"What if I said that I already have a school to go to and I don't think that will happen?", I challenged back.
"True", he nodded. "Point taken, but what if I said that I'd like to take you out sometime?".
Uh oh, this is not good. I have a boyfriend - who just so happens to be dead - and I can't tell him that, because, well, you already know.
"Uhh, you barely know me", I said, trying to avoid answering. "And I don't know anything about you, Ethan". I felt really nervous and I couldn't stop thinking about Troy.
"That can be arranged", he grinned. "So please, what do you say?".
Just as I was about to answer, Troy showed up by my side. Which I knew for sure, wasn't going to be a good thing because the moment Troy materialized, was the moment I found out that Ethan was a Mediator.
