With Melinda
Melinda pulled into the parking lot of the antique shop that she owned and worked at. She was still very freaked out about the whole shower incident. When she walked throw the doors she walked up to her best friend Andrea, who also worked at the shop with her. "I just had the weirdest thing happen to me," Melinda looked at Andrea.
"Mel, you've encountered many ghosts before... how is this story going to be any different?" Andrea cocked up an eyebrow.
"Well... I don't know... but I had a sleepless night and when I got out of the shower, I looked at the mirror that was streamed up from the heat and someone had actually wrote hubba hubba with there fingers, I have no idea who this person could be" she looked at Andrea.
"Hubba, hubba?" Andrea laughed a little.
"This isn't funny!" Melinda looked at Andrea, placing her hands on her hips.
"Okay, sorry. Maybe it was Jim and not a ghost at all?" Andrea started walking aroudn the store, placing some items that were brought in up for display.
Melinda followed her. "No, Jim had already left for work pier to that. It's just that I had a bad dream last night, someone I knew somehow had gotten killed and I think that's their ghost that was in my bathroom this morning," she said.
"Okay, so is there anyone you know that would actually write that or actually use the words hubba hubba?" Andrea asked.
"No, not that I know of," Melinda started to think. Just who could be do this? And why was she getting a feeling that it was someone that she already knew?
The Lobby
Jen looked at Wyatt. "My...my brother's ... dead," Jen was in shock. Yeah, so Jonesy was Jen's STEP-brother but she did't really think of him that way. "He's... oh my goodness what am I going to tell mom? What am I going to tell Mr. Garcia... the boys, oh my goodness... I can't breathe, I can't breathe," Jen started to hyper-venalate like she often did.
"Jen, calm down..." Caitlin looked at her. Caitlin started crying though. One of her best friends was dead. It just wasn't fair. Jonesy didn't deserve to die.
"Jonesy..." Jude just sat down. He didn't know what to say or think. He had never been in a situation like this before and he was totally shocked, freaked out, sad and confused all at the same time. Anyone's reaction to news like this would be unpreditable.
"Guys... I have to talk to Nikki, I know she needs one of us right now, she can't be left alone, it's just not right!" Jen looked at the gang. "I'm going to call mom and Mr. Garcia, Cait... will you please go find Nikki..." Jen looked at Caitlin.
"Okay..." Cailtin nodded, sobbing a little. "I will," she hugged Jen tightly. "I'm so sorry Jen, this is horrible... I can't believe it... it's just not fair," Caitlin started to go on.
"Hush Cait," Jen looked at the blonde haired girl who was almost just as much torn up about Jonesy's death as she was. "Nikki needs you and the family needs to know..." she said before walking outside of Mercy Hospital to call her family on her cell phone.
Caitlin ran upstairs to try and find Nikki. She knew Nikki needed someone by her side. She had just lost the love of her life and although nobody really knew it, Nikki and Jonesy were engaged. Nikki didn't even feel like bringing it up at all while they were on the way to the hospital, all she cared about was getting to the hospital to see Jonesy.
With Nikki
More tears slowly fell down Nikki's small face and onto Jonesy's cold dead body. All Nikki could do was cry and cry. She could barely think. Her mind was completely blank. She had just suffered ahuge loss, anyone would be completely different in her situation, there was no telling what anyone would do.
"Uh miss..." Nikki looked up to see Doctor Hart walking into the room. She could see the tall figure getting closer and closer to her. His dirty blonde hair was visable because of a light in the nearby hallway and his white coat was the only other thing visable on his complete body. "Miss, you're not suppose to be lid down there with him... it's not allowed I'm sorry," his soft voice sounded so sympathic but Nikki couldn't care less right now. She just couldn't. She didn't want to leave Jonesy. She felt as if it was all her fault that he was dead.
"No!" Nikki's voice was cold and harsh as she snapped at the doctor. "There's no way I am leaving him. He's my fiancee for crying out loud! Do you really think you're able to take me away from him?" Nikki glared at him. It wasn't as if he could tell she was glaring, but Nikki didn't care.
"Miss... you have to leave, I'm very sorry, I udnerstand you are hurt but you just simply can't stay here..." Doctor Hart gently toocuhed Nikki's arm and gestured for her to get up but she wouldn't bugde. "Miss... you have to leave now, I'm sorry but I can't let you stay here. It's obvious it's only upsetting you more," he said. Although there was barely any light in the room, Doctor Hart could tell by the sound of Nikki's harsh voice and the sobs in between that she was getting even more upset than what she was when he had annouced the horrible enws to her.
"I am not leaving him, I promised him I would never leave his side!" Nikki looked up at the doctor. "Please, please, don't take me away from him... I can't live without him," she started to cry all over again. Really hard this time.
"Oh Miss," Doctor Hart wrapped an arm around Nikki and tried to help her up to her feet. "You have to leave, you're not suppose to stay here, you need to get away," he told her. "There's nothing you can do for him now, he's gone, I'm sorry but he is..." he felt so aweful for having to take a young woman away from the love of her life like this but he couldn't let her stay there and sleep with his dead body, it just wasn't right! Plus, it was upsetting her even more than what she already was.
Nikki finally gave into and collasped into Doctor Hart's arms as she lifted her up and brought her out of the room. He started to slowly walk down the hallway with her to a room where he could examine her. She appeared to be in shock and Doctor Hart knew she had to be tened to right away.
"Nikki! Oh my gosh Nikki!" Caitlin saw Doctor Hart carrying Nikki down the hallway in his arms as soon as she reached the floor. "Oh my goodness! What happened to her?" Caitlin gently touched Nikki's arm with her soft hand.
"She's in a state of shock. I found her in the room with her fiancee's dead body... well actually I allowed her in there at first, when I went to check on her, she was in the bed with him... cuddled into him. I couldn't leave it there, it was obviously upsetting ehr even more. I had to take her away and that's when she collasped in my arms. Now may I ask, who are you?" Doctor Hart glanced at Caitlin.
"Oh, I'm Caitlin. One of Nikki's and Jonesy's best friends..." Caitlin's eyes started to tear up. "I just thought Nikki really needed a friend at this time, I mean with this and all... about Jonesy..." Caitlin looked at Nikki and for the first time she noticed the diamond ring on her left ring finger. She didn't take much notice to it but she did put two and two together. She could remember Doctor Hart saying something about fiancee a few seconds but didn't think it was apropriate at all, to bring that up, especially at a time like this.
"Okay then, maybe you should come with me while I examine this young woman. What did you say ehr name was?" Doctor Hart asked as they walked down the hallway.
"Nikki," Caitlin took a deep breath to let all her thoughts calm down. "Nikki Wong," she said. She felt so upset but didn't know what to do. She was still faintly crying but had only slacked off just to remain calm for Nikki's sake, she cared about Jonesy being dead, of course she did but she knew that she had to remain calm, it was for the better.
"Okay," Doctor Hart said as he walked into a room and placed Nikki on a bed. "I'll be right back right after I get her medical record, just stay by her side, talk to her. If she wakes up she is definately going to need a friend by her side, it's a good thing you came here," he said leaving the room.
Caitlin faintly smiled as she tucked a small lock of blonde hair behind her ear as she walked over to the side of the bed that Nikki's pale body lay in. Nikki was pale anyway but this was behond her normal look. She looked so scared and so much in shock even though she wasn't moving at all. Her eyes were closed and it was obvious she was unconscious. "Oh Nikki..." Caitlin said in a soft voice. "Oh Nikki... everything's going to be alright," Caitlin held onto Nikki's left hand. She gently touched the diamond ring. "Jonesy loves you so much, and all of your friends do, your mom and dad... your younger and older sister. We all love you.. and you're going to be okay," she started to ramble. "I just..." Caitlin started to break down. She wasn't tough enough to remain strong for any longer, even if it was for Nikki's sake. The tears that were rapidly falling from Caitlin's green eyes dropped onto Nikki's face. "I'm sorry for crying," Caitlin rubbed her arm across her wet eyes. "Because we all have each other, we'll get through this together..." she tried faking a smile, she knew there was no point really, she couldn't see her at all. But she felt maybe deep inside it could help herself and Nikki. She just couldn't seem to explain it but she did it anyway.
"Okay, so it appears that Nikki Wong here has not been to the hospital that many times for any serious reasons. She doesn't have any medical records here that shows anything to do with anything that bad at all but of course, going into shock usually only happens when someone suffers such a loss like Nikki has... but hopefully she'll be fine. She needs to rest so I am going to keep her here for the night," Doctor Hart looked at Caitlin. "It would be good if you could stay here with her, she needs someone... I know that much," he said.
Caitlin nodded and Doctor Hart left the room again to tend to some other duties.
With Jen Outside Of Mercy Hospital
Jen was crying. She didn't even try to hide it as she walked over to the side of the hospital to sit down on a bench. She pulled out her red and white cellphone and flipped open the cover and slowly but carefully dialed the number to her grandmothers, yes, her and Jonesy's dad had gone away for the weekend, that's why they threw a party at their home in the first place, no parents. Her hand was shaking rather rapidly as she clicked each button. When she had the number pressed in she clciked 'Send' and she tucked back the locks off loose hair that had fallen on the side of her face behind her each before placing the cellphone next to her ear. She heard about three rings go in before she heard her grandmothers voice to answer the phone.
"Hello?" Jen heard the sound of her jolly grandmother who she often enjoyed spending time with as a kid and now on times.
"Nan... is mom there?" Jen asked. She tried to cover up the fact that she was upset and crying but she failed to hide that from her grandmother.
"Jen honey, what's wrong? Have you been crying?" Her grandmother asked.
Crap! What am I going to tell her now? Jen didn't know what to say. "No," she lied. "I just got the flu but please can you put mom on the phone?" she asked.
"Okay sweetie, I love you..." Her grandmother said.
"I love you too," Jen said back. Then she waited for her mother to pick up the phone.
"Hello?" Her mother's voice finally was heard on the other line.
"Oh mom... something horrible has happened! You and Mr. Garcia need to get back here right away!"
Well, that is chapter 4. I won't you "for sobbing out loud" anymore, okay J? lol. Anyway, hope this chapter was good. I'll get working on the next one as soon as possible. I finally finished the whole season of Ghost Whisperer (season 1 that is) and I cried at the end. So sad... but anyway please review. xoxo. God Bless.
