Ellie's POV
I'd seen Jonah, who I now see in his regular, stunning looks self. But I absolutley refuse to talk to him.
He'd done this. I thought to myself. But, then again, he does have alot of my answers.
I walked down the stairs, down to the basment and saw Jonah.
"Tell me everything." I crossed my arms. "Starting with, why haven't I just moved on?" He looked me in the eye and nodded.
"Well, most reasons spirits don't move on, let's see...how to put this." He searched his mind. "Ah, okay. There's something that keeps spirits here on earth, they have a...job, or something to complete or succed before we move on. As for me, I have to free these spirits, I just need the right person, someone to see me, like you did, just.." He shook his head and smiled. "I guess your goal before moving on is helping me, right darling?" He did a shy crooked smile and looked away.
"Whatever. Okay, The spirits, tell me everything I need to know." I rolled my eyes.
"Okay. I told you about my father and his horrible hobbies." He cringed at a flashback. "Well, their bodies, they're...they're in the walls." He coughed.
"The walls." I repeated, speaking blandly, disregaurding his occasional flirty looks.
"Yes ma'am. I...I would have gotten you to do it, burn the house, burn the photos, the memouirs I hid in the attic, burn all evidance from mine, Ramsey's and the spirits' past. But, of course I was a selfish boy." He took a step forward and placed his hand on my ice cold face. "I wanted you all to myself." I smacked his hand off, fighting the want for it to stay there.
"I did this to you." He whispered. "I used your energy to be with you. I sucked up all your energy you needed to live, till it was all too late and you were weak." He looked away ashamed of himself.
"So I'd still be alive if it weren't for you?" I balled up my fists.
"Yes." He looked me in the eye. "But now, now we have eternity together, you and me. We'll free these guys and gals together." He blushed and grabbed my hands. I tried to tug away, until I got lost in those pityful eyes, I will help this boy.
I promised.
