Here it is!!!!!!! Enjoy.
"Whad up Father Deeeeeeeee……………?" I'm speechless. I see Father Dominick behind his desk, and sitting in one of the chairs, is Paul Slater."
"Hello Susannah," says Father Dominick nonchalantly.
"Hi," I reply awkwardly looking at both of them. "Um, what happened?" Paul grins and faces Father D. again.
"Why don't you sit down Susannah." says Father Dominick gesturing to the seat next to Paul. I feel weird around Paul. Even in first period, I just feel shivery. I wonder if that's normal around guys. Well I don't act like that around Adam, so it must be Paul. Why am I always blabbering to myself? It's crazy, not? Anyways, I sit down next to Paul and wait for Father Dominick to say something.
"So, Susannah, you must know Paul Slater corr-"
"Yea." I say quickly. He smiles and Paul chuckles a little.
"Well, he is also a mediator." I look at Paul. Ok, I gaped at him. Gosh, I'm lying to myself, that's bad, isn't it? In New York I though I was the only one who could see ghosts, but then I come here and meet Father Dominick who can also see ghosts. Only he called us mediators. And Paul was just….. sitting there. Like he didn't care, maybe he didn't care.
"Susannah, I would like you to show Mr. Slater around and watch out for him, maybe the ghosts here aren't as nice as in Seattle." He says trying to make a joke. Paul looks at me and smiles. I look back at Father Dominick in disbelief. He wanted me to baby-sit a dude my age?
"Be nice and show-" The warning bell rings.
"You must go or else you'll be late. Go, go." He says shooing us out of the room. So we get up and walk out the door.
"Hey Suzie, you-"
"It's Suze." I say annoyed. Most people think that the abbreviation for Susannah is Suzie, well it's not.
"Right." He says with a grin.
"Well, what are you doing after school?" He moved closer at the last few words. We were about to be late for class and he wanted to ask me out? ME?! Well I don't want to be late.
"I'm probably going to hang out with my friends."
"Oh," he says taken aback. "Well Kelly said it was O.K. if I come along." I stop walking and give him a look.
"What's the matter with Kelly?" I say making it clear that I don't like Kelly.
"Isn't she……. Your friend?" He says kind'av getting the drift.
"Hey look," I say shacking my head and start walking to my class room. "Was nice talking to you, but I gotta go."
"So wait," he says walking in front of me. "You're not friends with Kelly then?"
"No, bye." He just followed me.
"How 'bout after school then? Got any plans?"
"Yea, loads, c ya." I say hoping he'll cherish his life enough to take the hint.
"Well when do you have time today?" he says stopping in front of me. Is he stupid? Doesn't he get the drift? I'm pissed off, don't mess with me.
"Hey look." I say facing him, "You look like a nice guy, but I'm busy and, honestly, you're not my type. Sorry." I added sarcastically and continued walking around him. The bell rang as I saw my door. Kelly was walking toward me, giving me a look. I walk in the room and sit down. Paul sits down next to me.
"Hey Paul!" Says and excited Kelly.
"Hey." He replies casually.
"You done any site seeing yet?" she asks.
"I've done a little, but I'd still like to see more."
"Well, I could show you around, if you want. Maybe after school?" she asks hopefully.
"Actually I already have plans for today, but maybe some other time." I put my books on the table and look over at Paul, who was looking back at me.
"Well how about tomorrow then?" He looks at her.
"I'd have to come back to you on that" He says giving her a big smile.
"O.K., later then, bye!" says Kelly sitting down a few seats away. Paul looks back at me, but I was 'studying' my book.
"Suze-"
