~*~Whispers From The Flame~*~ Part 6

~*~Jeff's back was against the dresser,his eyes remained wide as he stared at Savannah,she stared back at him,not breaking his gaze or even blinking her eyes,taking a deep breath Jeff tried to get a grip on reality,but reality was hitting him really hard at this point and time,cause there in front of him stood his brothers dead girlfriend,now that was something you couldnt say everyday,Jeff shook his head trying to clear out those thoughts,too many falls in the ring,he never should do swantons off of cages and ladders,that was coming back to haunt him and....~

~his thoughts got interupted when he seen her move,heading closer to him,he bit down on his tongue,trying not to scream,he was already against the dresser,he had nowhere else to go,so,he did the first thing that came to his mind,he held up his hands,making a cross with his fingers~

"BE GONE!!!!"~Jeff yelled as he kept the make believe cross up,staring intently at Savannah~

~She didn't stop though,she kept creeping closer,like she was floating on air,till she was within a foot of him,then she slowly leaned closer,her mouth coming open~

~Jeff watched in horror waiting for something green to hurl from her mouth or worse yet bugs come crawling from her mouth,he was ready to scream like a baby and throw himself out the window if need be~

"Booo....."~Savannah whispered then almost seem amused by his reactions~

""Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.."~Jeff's twisted some feeling his back against the dresser,which was in no way comfortable,but he let out a sigh of relief when nothing came hurling from Savannah's mouth,but just the same the fact remained she was there...and she was dead~

"Wh....what....oh man...oh...."~Jeff couldn't find the right words to speak,after all what would you say if your brothers dead girlfriend was in front of you,Hey baby your looking kind of pale?,Jeff sure wasnt going to say that and hurt her feelings,then again can you hurt the deads feelings,or do they even feel if there dead,all these thoughts and more went through Jeff's mind~

~Savannah suddenly rolled her eyes some then looked back at him~"Earth to Jeff...can you snap out of your fantasies here.You always did get lost in your own lil world..."

~Jeff snapped his head up staring at her,hearing her speak,nothing bad happened,no demons appeared,no green vomit came hurling his way,not even her voice was eerie and frightening,it was soft and warm as always,which to him was a good sign,it meant he was either really insane or she was really here~


~he took a deep breath trying to get himself together,his eyes not looking away from her,she had a soft glow around her but otherwise looked the same as always,well except for the fact she was dead that is,but then again for a dead woman,Jeff thought to himself,she looks damn good as always~

~Savannah looked at him getting annoyed now,he knew she was by the look on her face,he had seen that look so many times over the years,finally he spoke~


"I seen this on tv....either I am stressing too much or....Your here and your like...what was it they said...oh you dont know your dead and need help!Okay...so listen..."

~Jeff took a step toward her,inside he was scared beyond belief and was forcing himself not to jump out the window and flee in the night screaming~

"Savannah...go toward the light hun....go into the light...your dead now...You need to go onto the other side..."~Jeff watched her,taking another step toward her~

~Savannah nodded her head at Jeff's words,seeming sad as she stared at him,she whispered softly~

" I am dead??when...when....."~she looked away sadly, then back at him then rolled her eyes,not able to act sad and confused for more than a second~

"No fuckin shit I am dead dumbass!Wouldnt you think I would know I am dead....I have been here for 6 long ass weeks trying to get your attention and between you and me....It was no picnic watching you pick at your toes while you watch tv,singing in the shower was by far the worse...you sounded like you were trying to bring the cows home or something!"

~Jeff stared at her shocked as his mouth fell open,then he looked insulted~"wait a damn minute Savy,I have heard you sing and let me tell you,you sure the hell are NO Mariah Carey!Hell you couldnt even beat Al Snow singing!"

~Savannah narrowed her eyes then pointed a finger at him~"You never seemed to have a problem with my singing!!As a matter of fact I recall singing to you many times,when YOU asked me to."

"What can I say I felt sorry for you,because everyone else took off screaming in terror when you were singing and wait and...and...."~Jeff took a step back,reality hitting him like a brick fell on his head~

"your...dead.....so....how am I...talking to you.Oh god...oh god...Your haunting me!!!What did I ever do to you??HUH?"

~his eyes grew wide again as he backed away from her,ready to bolt for the door or down a swanton bomb from the second floor window~


~Savannah shook her head ,seeing the look on Jeff's face was too much for her,she started laughing~

"haunt you?I am not haunting you...I am here for a reason....if you would settle down long enough for me to tell you then I..."

~Jeff put a hand up silencing her~"your dead...your suppose to be in Heaven.....how hard is that to do?damn Savy you cant even make it to the pearly white gates alone?Your full of shit if you think I am helping you to heaven,cause then I would have to be dead..."

"You know what Jeff....it's true what I always said to you..."

"And what did you always say to me?"

"That all that hair dye you used fried your last brain cells!!!

"ha!!"~Jeff looked at her smugly~"For your information miss know it all,I didnt have any brain cells left to fry!So take that!"

"you said it...not me...."

~Jeff tilted his head it kicking in what he just said~"You know...nevermind thats not the point....your...your a ghost....spirit...If your not haunting me...why are you here..."

"I need your help...."~Savannah looked at him,meeting his eyes~

~he stared at her,seeing what seemed like a glow around her,his eyes stopped on her vibrant red hair,noticing now it wasnt black like it had been when she died~"Your hair...it's red..."

~Savannah nodded then smiled~"Yeah I guess they didnt like the black hair in heaven huh?"

~Jeff smiled at her.then felt his heart ache,cause she was dead,yet here she was,for weeks he wanted to see her once again and now that she was here he felt even sadder,because no matter what,if this was a dream or real,she was gone and nothing could ever bring her back,that made a sense of complete loss fall over Jeff,because he knew nothing would change,Savannah was dead~

"You...need help Savy?How...I mean...what do you mean..."~Jeff stepped closer to her,wanting to reach out and see if he could actually touch her~

"I have unfinished business here that I need to complete before my soul can rest in peace..."

~Jeff was now standing in front of her,staring down into her eyes~"What?What is it....Helping Matt?"

~Savannah shook her head~"No...I will help him but....Jeff...the accident wasnt what killed me.."

~Jeff's eyes looked confused~"What do you mean...you fell down the stairs and went into a coma..."

~Savannah shook her head~"I know all of that....but I also know...that night when I died,I woke up....I seen Matt leaving my room....I tried to call out but I didnt have the strength.."

~Jeff eyes filled with emotion~"Then...what..."

"Someone came in after Matt left...and....injected my IV....I went into convulsions moments later...and thats when I died................Jeff...I was murdered...."
