Chapter 2

Suze's POV

As soon as the plane landed, me and Drake (A/N: Or as its supposed to be, Drake and I, but no one says that anymore!) got our bags and then rented a black mustang.

Yes, a black mustang. And Drake picked it out and paid for it, not me. Also it was one of those really new mustangs, so it was so cool!

When we loaded all the stuff in the car, i took out my cell phone and called my parents.

"Hello?" I heard Andy answer when he picked up the phone.

"Hi, Andy! It's me. Suze," I said over the loud punk music coming from the radio.

"Suze?! Hey, so where are ya?"

"In Carmel."

"Carmel?! Oh, you must be here for that reunion. Come on over here to the house."

"That's were we're goin'!"

"Ok, see you in a while then, Suze. Bye," Andy said.

"Bye, Andy, " I said then hung up.

"So where to?" Drake asked, driving away from the airport.

"99 Pine Crest Road. My house," I said.

After a while of driving, we made it to my house. Before Drake even stopped the car in the driveway, i was already getting out of the car and heading to the front door.

I opened the door and yelled, "I'm home!" like i did when i was a high school student.

"Suzie!" my mom said, and then pulled me into a hug.

"Mom, i know you missed me, but i still need to breathe!" i gasped.

She let go of me and said, "Honey, I've missed you so much." Then she noticed someone next to me. "Who's your friend?"

"This is Drake Black. He's my boyfriend," I said to my mom and Andy who just walked into the room. "Drake this is my mom, and my step dad Andy."

"Hey," Drake said.

Andy and my mom were just looking at Drake. At his appearance to be more exact.

You see, when you see Drake the first thing you think is 'What a hottie!'. I know this on the account of many girls coming up to Drake and flirting with him and then asking him for his number, infront of me. This has happened so many times, but each time it happens Drake always says "I'm taken." then walks away with his arm around my shoulder, leaving behind a very embarrassed girl who thought i was just his sister or something.

But also when you see Drake you might think he's like a gangster. Drake is really gothic, and punk. He usually wears black, but he dresses like a normal non-gothic person one in a while. Today he was wearing a black Blink 182 (A/N: GO BLINK182!!! YOU ROCK!!!) shirt with some levis that were a little torn, and black high tops. Not exactly a gangster look, more like punk, but still I've never had a boyfriend who was gothic before. So Andy and my mom were shocked. They were also shocked at what I was wearing. I was wearing a black mini skirt, a black tan top, and some black ankle boots. My mom has seen me in all black before, so has Andy (A/N: Cough In Ninth Key where she wears her black Betsy Johnson mini skirt with ribbed tights, side zip Batgirl boots, and a purple Armani sweater, along with her leather jacketCough) before, but she's never seen me with a gothic guy and me wearing solid black too. My parents aren't stupid, they did the math. Ya know, Gothic guy who's my boyfriend me wearing solid black = Suze is a little gothic.

Andy broke the silence by saying, "Hi Drake."

"Whats going on?" Doc- i mean David- said. He saw me then said, "Suze!" and ran up to me to give me a hug.

"Hey, David," I said when he stopped hugging me. "So how old are you, now?"

"16. And um, who is he?" he said, pointing to Drake.

"I'm Drake Black and I'm Suze's boyfriend," Drake answered.

"Hi! I'm David Ackerman," David said.

"So where are you staying, Suze?" my mom asked.

"Um," I said looking at Drake who just shrugged.

"A hotel I guess," Drake said.

"Which one?" my mom asked.

Jeez. Leave it to her to go all 20 questions on ya.

"The Hotel Of Undecided," I said.

"Really. Is that a new hotel?" Andy asked.

"Yes. Yes, it is. I hear its really nice there though. They have leprechauns who give you gold, and then to return back home they give you ruby slippers. And all you have to do is tap the ruby slippers together and say 'there's no place like home' 3 times and you'll be home. Also they have a mirror that tells you who is the fairest person of all! You should really visit it sometime," I said sarcastically.

"You can stay here if you want to," my mom said.

Yay! Mommy came to the rescue!

I looked at Drake to see if he wanted to stay here. He just shrugged and said, "If it's cool with ya'll."

"Drake you can stay in Jake's old room," mom said. "And Suze you can have your bedroom."

"Come on, Drake. I'll show you where you'll stay," I said.

I went up stairs with Drake following me.

"So this is where you grew up?" Drake asked.

"Yeah. I'll show you around Carmel later if you want. Here's your room," I said, opening Jake's old room. Thank God it was clean and you could actually see the whole floor. But i wonder how mom and Andy got the sockish smell out.

"Cool."

"I'll show you my bedroom if ya wanna see it," I said.

"Sure let's check it out," Drake said.

I closed Jake's door and I saw Max run quickly way from my room.

"Hey Max," I said to the dog.

Max wagged his tail at me then quickly went downstairs.

I wonder why Max hurried away from my room so quickly.

I was standing in front of my bedroom door, with my hand on the doorknob, when it hit me.

Max always stayed away from my room because a ghost haunted my bedroom.

That ghost's name was.... I can't remember its name! I know it started with a 'J'. Jessica, Jasmine, Jess, Jessie, Jesse....

Then i remembered everything.

Jesse!
