A/N: Thanks again for the reviews keep going.

Chapter 4:

I started to cry silently when I saw the ghost of Brad standing in front of me. The doctor's were still desperatley trying to bring him back.

"What's going on? Why are we in the hospital? Suze are you crying?" Ghost Brad asked.

All I could do was cry harder and point at the bed where the doctor's were surrounding his body.

"No it can't be me in there it's some look-a-like that you set up to scare me." He then turned to the doctors and said "Nice try guy's how much did Suze have to pay you to get this all to work?" When the doctors continued to work over the body Brad went over and tried to tap one of them on the shoulder when his hand went through the doctor. He started screaming at the top of his lung's.

Then suddenly he was jerked back into his body and he started breathing again. At this time everybody else walked in. "Thank god we almost lost Brad for a second there. Susie are you going to be okay? It had to be pretty scary for you being the only one here when it happened." Mom asked.

"I'm fine mom it was just scary I didn't know if the doctor's would be able to save him or not. I'm glad they did. Is he going to be alright?"

"He should be out of the hospital by the end of the week. The stab wound will take longer to heal but it didn't hit anything vital so he should be thankful for that." The doctor told us.

"We're going to stay here for a while you,Jake,and David should go home. You can come back to the hospital in the morning when Brad's awake." Andy added quickly before the protests could start.

Jake led David and I out to the car. We got in and drove home silently. I went straight up to my room and closed the door. I saw Jesse sitting in the window seat petting spike and watching me. "Listen Jesse I don't really feel like talking to you right now I've had a really hard day and I don't feel like being called stupid again." I said before Jesse could even open his mouth.

But Jesse typically ignored me and asked "How is Brad doing?"

"Brad will be fine."I said as Jesse came to sit down next to me on the bed. "But he did die but the doctor's brought him back into his body. He was a ghost for a few minutes and I don't think that even Brad is stupid enough not to notice that I was the only one who was able to see him. I don't know how I'm going to explain that to him without having to worry about him telling everybody."

Jesse just looked at me for a second then said. "I don't know either but we'll figure out something. We always do."

"I really hope so Because I don't want to go to a mental institute if Mom find's out."

"I won't let that happen to you Querida" Jesse said sincerely "You know I didn't mean that you were stupid the way that it sounded I was just very angry at you for kissing Slater."

"But why were you so mad at me you usually just beat up Paul." I really didn't know why he had been so mad at me.

"I didn't like seeing you kiss anybody else especially him."

I didn't know what to say after he said that I just wanted to hear him say the L word. You know which one. But Jesse did the next best thing he leaned down an down kissed me on the mouth. This kiss was different then the other two. Or it would of been but we were interrupted by a knock at the door. We broke apart and Jesse disappeared. I went to see who was at the door.

I was surprised to see who it was I really shouldn't have been considering his threats. But there he stood Paul Slater with a knife at Doc's neck.

"Hello Suze did you like my little warning?"

"Get the hell out of here and let david go before I hurt you."

"Like you could.Are you ready to admit defeat and go out with me or do I have to slit David's throat?" Paul asked while smirking at me.

"If you even think about hurting him I'll make your life and afterlife a living hell for the rest of eternity." I threatened.

"Can't say I didn't try to help you help him. Oh well to bad another wasted life poor kid." He said patting David's cheek. Then he started to slide the knife across david's throat.
