Chapter Eight

Little Question?

Okay sorry it took me long to update. I had to go on vacation that turned out bad in the end. I'm in a good mood though because I watched Sci Fi Friday! It rocked. Anyway please update soon and here is my response to reviewers. Remember if you are a anonymous reviewer you can review now. So please review people it motivates me and gets in an even happier mood. Now time to answer my fan mail! Sorry it took me so long to update. I feel really bad! Now time to answer!

Alexalily- It's nice of you to review. Pam really isn't immature. Well maybe a little but she dose mature in this fic and she's not as immature as she seems. Tell me would you like to see someone making out with someone else just after you have woken up then I would be pretty surprised too. She also did it just to be funny. I guess you're a little harsh to think that Pam should have been put in a closet. Desperate times call for desperate measures. I'm 13 too and Pam is based a little on me. Not completely though. I also made it that Suze had to drag Pam everywhere because I think it's rude to leave your cousin at your house when she's visiting. I hope you keep enjoying the story and Pam is just acting immature because they just haven't gotten to know her yet. That is how she is to cover up for her shyness.

Koziak- I did think things would work out better if Pam was a mediator too. Or is she a shifter? Have to read to find out!

Spikerina- Pam is a mediator slash shifter. I think it's awesome too that's why I wrote it!

Mrs. Nikki Slater- Her date with Jesse will have fluff. I think there has to be some fluff! I just am a hopeless romantic!

ILDR- I'm sorry my story isn't up to your standards. I'm glad that you reviewed though. Please tell me what I need to work on and I will try to fix it. I will keep striving to be a better author. Thanks for reviewing! I hope you enjoy this chapter!

R&R!

Suze POV

I looked behind me and at Pam. I could not believe it. She was a mediator too. There was no signs or anything. How could she act so normal and be a mediator. I must admit that I am a little bit of a freak but she seemed pretty normal. The ghost then said in a cool clear voice

"So can you help me or not." I looked back at this ghost. She seemed different than other spirits I had met before. I just shrugged it off and said.

"What is your name and you problem." The ghost turned her gaze to me and I suddenly felt like I was in an iceburg. Her gaze was more piercing than Paul's and that was saying something.

"My name is Elvira. I don' know why I'm here that's why I came here to ask you for help." Her voice was emotionless and seemed cold and distant. I hated it when they didn't know. It took forever to figure out why they were here. I just gave a defeated sigh before I thought of what to do next. Then I heard Pam's high voice say

"Well what is the last thing you remember." Well that was a good question. I focused my gaze on the ghost now called Elvira. She looked at us both and said

"I was walking into my apartment after having a night out at the club. I noticed that my door was open so I walked inside. Everything was toppled over and it looked like someone had robbed my house. I started looking to see what was stolen and then I saw nothing. It was black and the next thing I knew was I was like this." Well that didn't give us any clues. I then said

"Did you leave anything unsaid or done?" She just shook her head said

"No." Pam then said

"Are you sure nothing at all? Think hard." She gave Pam a cold gaze and said

"I'm positive. There is nothing." Well now I was stumped. I decided this needed long term thought.

"Well we'll think about this and get back to you later." She gave me a cold hard glare and started fading away and then when she was almost gone she said

"You better." and then she was faded completely. That was creepy. Pam then looked over at the clock and said.

"You have only like an hour to get ready." She then gave me a smile and left the room to go downstairs.

Pam POV

I surprised Suze. I really felt sorry for doing that because she was my favorite cousin and all but I was trying to go for a mediator free zone. I was sadly wrong. I thought that there would be a limited number of ghosts. I lived by a lot of historical places so there were lots of ghosts. I thought California the laid back and relaxed state that had a actor for a governor. Surely I could avoid ghosts for a whole summer. So that is why I hadn't told Suze even after I had figured out she was a mediator when I saw her talking to her Father. I sighed and went downstairs. Brad was playing a video game. (A/N: I'm not really into video games so just picture a video game you know of.) I played against him twice and beat him.

"Wow. I can't believe I won I usually suck at video games." Brad got mad and just said

"Whatever." He then turned off the video game and stormed out of the room. I just shrugged. I decided to look around at the videos that they had. Oh look they had The Fifth Element! I love that movie. Then I looked around some more and saw that they had Aladdin on DVD. I love all the classic Disney movies (A/N: I do so my character had to. My family is a disney family so we love all that stuff especially me and my mom.) that may sound cheesy but it's true. My friends make fun of me because of it. I opened it up and put the video in. I started watching it and laughed at all the appropriate times and was serious at the appropriate times too. I was so rapped up in the movie I didn't even notice the time. It was 8:00 before I knew it and that was when Jesse was suppose to be picking up Suze. I had been watching the video 45 minutes when Jasmine and Aladdin started singing "A Whole New World". I just had to sing along I loved that song. So I was singing Jasmine's part and didn't even notice the doorbell ring or my aunt answer it or someone walk in. Then that someone said

"You have a nice voice." I jumped because I was so scared. I turned around and there was Jesse. I smiled and said

"Hi Jesse!" he said

"Hello Pamela." Wait Pamela? Only my parents called me Pamela and that was when they were mad. I had to set him straight. Suze can call me that name but no one else can.

"I liked to be called Pam." Jesse then looked me directly in the eyes and said

"Pamela is proper name so I will call you Pamela." Oh well nothing you can do if he refuses. I shrugged and got back on the couch. Oh! Aladdin and Jasmine were about to kiss. I ran and jumped on the couch. I looked at the screen all my attention focused on the movie. When they kissed I went Awwww! Even though I had seen it tons of times. I then looked at Jesse again and said

"I'm watching Aladdin. You've probably seen it when you were younger. I know it's kind of dorky but I love watching Disney classics." Jesse gave me a confused look and said

"What is Aladdin?" I gave him a disbelieving look and said

"You have never seen Aladdin. You are deprived! It is only one of those movies that you should see in your lifetime. Even if you don't like it. Like everyone has seen it."

"Oh. Well what is it about?" I just gave him another disbelieving look.

"It takes place in Agriba. He is a street urchin and then he meets Princess Jasmine but he doesn't know she is a princess because she had sneaked out of the palace. Then Jafar the evil dude throws Aladdin in in jail because he wants to be Sultan. Aladdin is just what he needs to get the magic lamp in the Cave of Wonders so his evil plan can come true. Jafar tricks Aladdin into getting the lamp and he finds the magic lamp. Then the Cave of Wonders caves in because Abu touched something. Now Aladdin is stuck in the Cave of Wonders with a magic carpet and his pet monkey Abu. The magic lamp has a genie in it. He then gets three wishes he doesn't want to waste his three wishes so he tricks the genie into getting him out of the cave. Then he wishes to become a Prince so he can marry Princess Jasmine. He manages to woo her and now you have to watch to see what happens." I had done that all in one breath. Jesse just looked at me amazed before saying

"Sounds interesting."

"It is." I answered before focusing on the TV. Aladdin had just revealed that Jafar was evil. I then looked at Jesse and remembered what I had seen in that book at the library.

"Jesse do you have a middle name?" I asked. He looked at me and asked

"Why?"

"Oh just wondering you know just curious. I can tell you my middle name. It's Maria. So what's yours?"

He gave me a suspicious look and said

"Jesse is my middle name. My first name is Hector. So my full name is Hector Jesse De Silva." I gave him a disbelieving look and said

"Mmmm." Then I turned my gaze to the TV. That was interesting. I mean it could be a coincidence. Plenty of parents name their kids after ancestors. I rarely hear though that they had the exact name of a ancestor. That was an interesting bit of information. I would have to go back and check out that book some more. I then heard some noise at the stairs and noticed that Suze had walked down and was now coming toward the living room. She looked really pretty. She had on sparkly red high heels with a denim skirt and a red shirt that was tight but not too tight that it made her look like a hooker. She had on red eye shadow with some red bangles on her wrist. She had on a necklace with a tiny red ruby at the end with dangling ruby earrings too. Whether the stones were real or not I don't know but she looked fabulous. To finish it all off her hair was straightened and was shiny. It seemed that Jesse was at a loss for words too because he just said in a stunned voice

"Querida…." and he trailed off. He walked up to her and gave her a peck on the lips but it turned into something more. Now I don't mind PDA. You know kissing and holding hands but I just get really annoyed when people start making out in public. So that's why I went up to them and said

"It's nice that you guys like each other so much and all but could you wind down the PDA just a little?" They just looked at me dazed. Jeez they had some sucking power. So I started ushering them out door and I said

"You two love birds have a nice time. You may now continue what you two were doing before. Bye!" I then closed the door on their stunned faces. It hadn't registered yet in their minds that they were just ushered out of the door by a 13 year old. I went back to my movie and just muttered to myself.

Suze POV

One minute I was enjoying a mind blowing kiss from Jesse and the next thing I know is the little one is ushering me out the door and telling me to have a nice date. I looked back up at Jesse who looked just as stunned as me. He then said

"Ready to go Susannah?" I just nodded and he took my hand and led me to his car. He had managed to save up enough to buy a used car. It wasn't anything fancy but it did the job. He opened the passenger door for me and then he got in.

"So where are we going?" I asked. Jesse just smiled slyly and said

"You'll see Querida." I just pouted and said

"Oh I hate surprises. Can you just tell me Jesse." He just smiled at me then started the car down the road. He then handed me a bandana and said

"Put this on Susannah." I just looked at him in bewilderment and said

"What?" I mean the bandana totally clashed with my outfit and was kind of tacky.

"Just put in on over your eyes. I our destination to be a surprise for you." I just looked at him and gave him a puppy dog look

"Do I have to?" He didn't even look at me because he knew he couldn't resist the awesome power of my puppy dog look.

"Yes now are you going to make me pullover and put it on you myself."

"Fine." I said and tied it on around my head and over my eyes. I then saw complete blackness. Well not entirely. I still saw the last rays of the sunlight through the bandana and I could see the design of the tacky hair accessory over my eyes. I just sighed and then realized we had come to a stop. I heard Jesse get out of the car and open the door for me. No way was I getting out of the car. I might trip and then get my new outfit all dirty and embarrass myself in front of Jesse. Jesse seemed to of realized I wouldn't be able to guide myself on my own because he took my hand and pulled me out of the car. I heard the car door close with a bang and then I hear

Swoosh

In a calming soft way. Then I felt what I was walking on and realized I was at the beach. The sand would sink in wherever I stepped and left an imprint. The air was salty and the wind was whipping my hair. Right after I did it just perfect too. Jesse kept guiding me until he stopped me all of a sudden that I almost tripped. Jesse then pulled the bandana off my face. I didn't even realize that I had closed my eyes until I realized I still couldn't see anything when he pulled the hair accessory off. He then gave a chuckle and then said

"You can open your eyes Querida." I slowly and reluctantly opened my eyes and gasped because set in front of me was a candlelit dinner. On the beach! This was so romantic there were candles and everything. I turned to Jesse and said

"Oh my…..Jesse." My hands covered my mouth in amazement. I turned back towards the picnic. There was a basket with two candles and a vase of flowers. There was even a red plaid picnic blanket. There were two shiny white plates that were just waiting to be eaten on. I turned towards Jesse with tears in my eyes and said

"This is the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me." I then don't know what came over me but I jumped on Jesse. Luckily he caught me and only walked back a few steps caught off balance. I kissed him with so much passion and gratitude. He was a little surprised and didn't respond immediately but I pressed my lips harder against his and he finally responded with just as much passion. He then pulled away and smiled down at me saying

"Querida don't you think that we should go eat." I can't believe it Jesse interrupted us kissing so we could eat. Oh well there was going to be many more opportunities during the evening for kissing. Jesse then took my hand and led me to the blanket. He took out some chicken in this sauce and it looked delicious. I looked at him and said

"Did you make this?" he nodded and I put my arms around his neck and hugged him and said

"Oh Jesse you're so sweet." I giggled and he then blushed. So we ate our chicken and then he took out chocolate covered strawberries for dessert. We started feeding them to each other. Then Jesse all of the sudden got a serious face on and pulled away from me. Oh no what was he going to do?

Was he going to break up with me because he didn't love me anymore. No. No guy sets up this whole dinner and tells a girl that he doesn't love her and wants to just be "friends" ha. What they really mean when they say that is "I never want to see you again but just to make you feel better let's just pretend to be friends." it really hurts though when they say that. Anyway focusing back on me and Jesse. What if he really wants to break up with me and only did the whole romantic dinner thing just to make me feel better so it won't hurt as much. We fed each other strawberries. He can't possibly want to break up with me.

I turned to Jesse with a scared look on my face. He kneeled down in front of me and said

"Querida I have loved you since the day I first set eyes on you. I want you to be mine forever." He then pulled something out of his pocket that was in a…jewelry box! Could this be true? "You are the only girl for me so that is why I ask you. Querida. Susannah. Will you-" I held my breath. Was this my dream come true was this what I have been waiting for since Jesse came alive. Dose he really love me that much? He opened the box and what was in it took my breath away.

Find out in the next chapter what happens. Did Jesse really propose or is it something else? Will Suze say yes to Jesse's question? What is with that ghost? Where does Pam fit into all of this? This and more in the next chapter of Little Things! I make it sound like a show on television! Lol. Please review and I hope that you enjoyed it! Sorry it took so long for me to update. I'm going to be away at Williamsburg for a week so the next update should come in a week. I hope you enjoyed and p lease review!
