Corvus Corvidae: No that's a different story, I'm writing this whilst at my nans.
TDG3RD: You asked me to update soon so here you go! Thanks for your review!
"How did you die, Garfield?"
Garfield looked at his feet. "I was murdered."
"Murdered?" I'd repeated, astounded.
"Murdered." He'd clearly stated.
At that time, his eyes turned somewhat hurt. I wondered why,
"Are you okay?"
What was I saying? I actually cared what this dead body felt?
Whoa. That was harsh even for me thinking about it.
I was glad he couldn't read minds!
He looked me in the eye, and I felt all his pain. An image flashed before my eyes with a man holding a blunt axe.
I squeezed my eyes shut, but the image stayed, burnt deep into my eyes.
I cried out, feeling too much pain as the axe swung downwards, hitting something, but not penetrating it.
I opened my eyes; all the pain subsided, and I found Garfield's hand on my shoulder, a look of deep concern in his eyes.
"I'm sorry – I should have warned you, or maybe I shouldn't have done that at all."
"Done what?" I was confused.
"That was how I died – I took you into my memory, but you could feel all the pain I felt, but you wouldn't die like I did."
Okay – now I'm even more confused!
"I'm sorry, I don't think I understand."
I was still shocked from all the pain I had felt.
He smiled, and nervously put his arms around me. I froze. A hug…from a dead person…I felt…weird.
Maybe it was because he was dead.
Maybe because I enjoyed it.
I put my arms back around him, and I know it seemed weird to be hugging some dead guy, but who cares?
He seemed surprised at the fact I was hugging him back, and even more still burying my head into his shoulder.
It had been a long time since I'd had a proper hug. Wait, it had been a long time since I'd had a hug full stop.
When I finally stopped hugging him, I apologised.
"Sorry. I haven't really had a hug in a long time." I smiled sheepishly.
"What do you mean?" he queried.
"My…" he's dead Rachel…you can tell him. I remember thinking. "My dad beats me…my mother left when I was very small."
This time he didn't hesitate to put his arms round me, and I returned the hug great fully.
I smiled. It was nice to know somebody cared.
"Garfield, I have to know something."
"Yeah?" He asked, still holding me close.
Second question;
"Did you die in this house?"
