My scream cut short when I realised it was only a ghost. Ha, only a ghost, that's enough to freak any sane person, but by now, we all know I'm not sane. The ghost was of a woman; tall and quite slim. She looked to be about 50 or so not much younger or older. The thing was I could only just work that out.
Her head was hanging from her neck; obviously she had some sort of accident. I couldn't even begin to say how many cuts she had on her face and I believe both her arms were broken and maybe even her legs. Good thing she was a ghost, she didn't need them. I knew my scream would have been heard by everyone so I had to talk to this mangled up ghost quickly.
I was still a bit freaked as I remember the last ghost that came to me like this; Reids father had appeared one night, the first time a ghost had appeared to me in the same shape as it had died. I spoke in a clear voice, using that tone of voice you use on small children. "Lets get to business shall we? First give your name, reason of death, then your message and to who I should give that message." I swear I should become one of those interrogators in the police, I know half of what they do.
"Tell him, I forgive him! Tell him! Please, he didn't understand, he didn't know, you must tell him!" her voice rose at each word. Great, a hysterical ghost, god I couldn't wait till I was 18. "Look miss, calm down, who are you and who's him? Miss you have to calm-" I was interrupted by her wailing, rather loudly if I didn't say so myself. I covered my ears as her wailing started to shake the bathroom. "Miss! Stop you have to tell me!" I shouted over the din.
Out of the corner of my eye I saw the doorknob being rattled, obviously the boys were there. I couldn't let them interrupt us. I ran to the door and pushed against it, hoping that the boys wouldn't all try and force the door open. The ghost's wailing increased even more and it became almost deafening. This was one very agitated ghost. Suddenly the air became colder around me and my eyes widened in fear.
She was going to use on me. Bloddy ghosts and there bloody powers.
The air soon became so cold that everything around me froze. I felt all my muscles freezing up and I rasped out one more time. "Who is he?" She finally looked at me through bright blue eyes. Odd for someone who was dead.
"Goody Pope," and with that she disappeared releasing her icy spell on me and the bathroom.
I collapsed to the ground as the blood started rushing round me again. Finally I could hear the shouting on the other side of the door. I dragged myself off the floor and made sure the towel was tight around me. Quickly looking in the mirror to check I looked alright, I turned the lock and 4 boys fell through, 2 landing on top of me. "What the fuck just happened Cordelia!" Shouted Pogue, picking himself off the floor. Tyler lifted himself off me and grabbed my arms, pulling me up after him.
I saw Reid showing Caleb his finger and brushing himself off. Caleb blushed bright red when he saw my bra had got caught on his foot. Reid chuckled and I saw Pogue and Tyler going red as well. That quickly changed though as all boys turned on me. I held onto the towel even more, not liking the fact that there were 4 guys in the bathroom with me. "What happened Cordelia, ohmygod what is that on your face? And you're all cold!" Tyler started rubbing my arms, noticing the hairs on my arms were standing up.
"Why did you scream?" Pogue asked shaking off his jacket and placing it around my shoulders. "The truth Cordelia," finished Caleb, taking a whack at Reid and missing. Yeah like I was gonna tell them a scary ghost just appeared in here and told me she forgave a idiot named Goody Pope who most likely was the person who killed her.
"Ummm I just slipped on the floor, nothing big and being the idiot I am I screamed." I babbled. I saw Reid raise an eyebrow. "Explain then how your so cold your almost blue, how you have that huge bruise on your face and why the place is so slippy, it's like you had a water fight in here," asked Pogue, looking down at his now wet socks and jeans. "I fell on my face when I slipped, and oh yeah, I left the shower running while I was brushing my teeth and when I jumped in, it was freezing cold so I let go of the shower head and it probably sprayed the rest of the bathroom with water."
I began rubbing my jaw, trying to rid my self of the pain starting to form there. I don't think they bought my little story but they couldn't think off any reason not to. I never used to be the sort that screamed, well I could blame the fact they hadn't really spent much time with me for the past 4 years. Yep, that was my come back if they said anything.
"Guys if you don't mind I would like to get dressed." I said, motioning towards myself. 3 very red faces quickly mumbled something about breakfast and quickly left the bathroom. Reid was the only one left. I turned away from him and grabbed my clothes off the floor. "You're not a bad liar C." Smirked Reid and followed the boys out the bathroom. I stared after him then shook my head. I remember from when we were younger Reid had always been able to tell if someone was lying. It was particularly annoying in truth or dare games.
But maybe he was only bluffing? Doubt it.
I quickly changed and decided to tidy my, or the ghosts mess, later. Right now I had breakfast to eat and then a secret to tell. At least I knew they would tell me there's in return.
This was going to be a long morning.
