So here's another day
I'll spend away from you
Another night
I'm running
Another broken avenue



I walked in bouncing my "B-ball" with my right hand as Skittles trots on my left.I take off my favorite bright neon sweater and set it down softly on the grass to reveal an even brighter neon yellow tank top.I slowly started to bounce my basketball up and down, side to side.Soon to realize that wearing black sweat pants on a hot summer day maybe wasn't the best Idea yet.

I put my hair up in a quick messy bun and start crisscrossing the ball in between my legs.I then take both hands a caress the ball, pull up for a shoot and.."Swish" I said with a smile. "Man, I love that sound..Its like music to my ears." I said to anyone who was listening,probably Skittles.I get a sudden chill with shiver dramatically.

"Nice shot,Scar.I bet I could do better if I was alive" a familiar and sarcastic voice said behind me, of course I turn around to see Jacob.I smiled and put down the ball as he advanced towards me."Hey Jake!,I've missed you! where did yea disappear too?". You must think I'm taking something right now..I'm not. I see dead people.and NO I didn't get that from "Scary Movie", when I figured out I can see the non-living I was about 14? Long story short...

My mother died when she gave birth too me,my father died a few years after and my alcoholic Uncle got a hold me of blah,blah,blah..ANYWAYS. I have no clue what triggered it but I was just chilling in my bed when I got a chills,I happen to look over and there is my parents standing at the end of my bed.I know.Creepy right?.. I for some reason took off too the park and that's when I saw a WHOLE bunch of dead people.Lets just say I peed my pants and more..

Blah,Blah,Blah.. A few months after I copped with my "Gift" and went to the park,I was having a great time saying "Hey" and "Hi,whats up?" to every non-living person.I had to learn how to keep my mouth shut because in public.. most people cant see dead people... They'll call the cops on you.Its happened.I just totally got off topic there.

I went to the park and sat on the swings and that's when I met Jacob.A tall,handsome sixteen year old boy who tragedy died from a drunk driver.After talking to him with what seemed like hours when only minutes he became one of my closest friends.

I wandered through the field, in no particular rush, to go to the stables. I wanted to groom Apollo, because as Lenobia always told us, it calmed my nerves. I didn't know why, but I was in a bad mood. Maybe I'd just go to sit in there and talk to him, he was quite wise, for a stubborn old stag. Wynn was in my bag, humming along to herself.

'Vivvy, darling, I don't understand why you're always so sad,' My father, unexpectedly, told me. I even jumped a bit, looking like a complete idiot, and then calmed myself down quickly. Yeah, I could speak to dead people. It was a bit weird, of course, but only in my head. They didn't often, only when they were concerned or something. 'I'm sorry to have scared you. But you need to make some new friends,' Dad said, making me roll my eyes. He always gave me the same lecture.

'Jeremiah Jones, stop stressing her! She'll make friends when she's ready,' Mom soothed me in her caring, gentle tone. She'd always been the docile one, sensitive and much more understanding. Though dad and I had a special bond together, so I was very much a daddy's girl.

Dad grumbled, 'But Charlotte, it's not good for a girl her age to be so alone...' I'm sure that's when my mother gave him one of her patented stop-pestering-her stares, and my dad sighed in defeat. 'I'm sorry, sweetheart. I just want what's best for you, you're my little girl.'

''I know dad, I love you. But can you guys please stop looking into my head? It gets... I don't know, intruding, I guess,'' I smiled. Typical for my parents, they were always looking out for me. With a few apologies and a goodbye, I was back to having my head to myself.

...And Wynn. 'Come on, Vivvy-Chan! You need to cheer up! Can you try to follow your parents' advice just once? Go talk to that girl over there,' She said cheerfully, causing me to roll my eyes. I then noticed the girl, who appeared to be talking to herself, and I immediately knew why. She could see dead people, as stupid and cheesy as that sounds. I walked over to her, I mean, them. Wynn, as per usual being Ms.Social, cowered back into my bag and hid.

"Hey," I said shyly, "I'm Viv." I smiled semi-sincerely at the pretty girl. It was weird, she was the first who had an affinity like mine. "And whoever you are, you can talk to me, I can hear you in my mind, too," I mentioned, reffering to the ghost.

So here's another day
I'll spend away from you.

Another night
I'm running
Another broken avenue

Jacob was just about to answer when I happen to look over at a girl smiling at me and say "Hey.".I flickered my eyes to Jacob then back at the girl, when I was going to greet her back when I froze and she started talking to Jacob.My mouth opened in an "O" type shape as I starred at "Viv".

I shook my head and tried to catch my cool, I puffed out my cheeks and ruffled my hair with my fingers.I just met a girl ho had the same affinity as me!, now I don't feel AS crazy anymore.I smiled at her."My name is Scarlett, call me Scar.." I then pointed at Jacob who was starring at her also, but he was drooling..."This is Jacob, he prefers Jake....Umm.." I glared at the ghost,he finally caught my drift.


"So... you can see dead people too?" I said in a shaky voice..I wondered if Viv was just playing some joke on me and I just blurted out the truth..I just "Played along".

"Its' cool,Eh?..Talkin' to dead people...Yep..Pretty awesome!. I laughed nervously and mentally kicked myself in the head.I heard Jake snickered,I scratched my forehead and tried to ignore him."Nice meeting you,Viv..."

I smiled, beginning to see the shimmery aura around where Jake was standing, getting a slight look at him before it disintegrated. I wondered why I couldn't see them, but I was told by the teachers that eventually, one day, I would be able to see them. I just had to mature a bit more, I guess. Wynn, however, like all animals, could see him. 'He's a cutie,' She whispered, causing me to smirk. When I realized I was smirking, I blushed a bit. I had often wondered if other ghosts could hear Wynn, besides my parents. It was odd.

"Nice to meet you both. I'm sorry I cannot see Jake, according to the teachers I haven't fully grown into my powers," I winked and smiled, "But I can talk to you. In my head, though, but only if you talk to me first," I referred to Jake, once again. Wynn quietly made her way up to my shoulder to look at Scarlett and Jake, I guess the curiousity had gotten the best of her. "Oh, sorry Wynny-Chan. This is Wynn. She says it's a pleasure to meet you both," I introduced her as Wynn told me what to say for her. For some reason, with this girl, Scar, I felt as if I could tell her anything. She had the same power, after all, and she seemed nice enough. "When were you Marked?" I asked, curiously tilting my head to the opposit side from where Wynn was sitting. She looked young, like me.

I smiled sweetly at the girl, she basically had the same talent as me. I felt like I had a sudden friendship with Viv, I looked over at Jake to see him gawking at her again. I hissed and he suddenly snapped out of it, I turned back to Viv and my eyes widened with fascination. "You can talk with animal's also?! That's neat-O!..."

I gasped when I saw the ferret."She's soo cute!" I squeaked like a little girl and smiled brightly.I then pointed too my fat-ass cat who was sitting on the side lines."That... is my cat,Skittles. she is a bitch and she'll attack you whenever you have the chance." I warned and answered Viv's question.

"Hmm.. I was marked about..uhh..You know I don't even remember the day, to be honest.." I felt like a total idiot.. how can you not remember the day you go marked?!.
"How about you?" I asked hoping the attention would be taken off me.

I laughed. "Well, if he takes a lunge for me I'll have to give him a good scream at," I said with a grin. 'You touch Wynn or I and I'm drop-kicking you over the school. Despite the fact you're an animal, and I hate hurting animals, touch Wynn and you're toast,' I told the cat inside my head, glaring at it for a moment before returning my gaze to Scar.

When she asked me when I was marked, I realized it was the question I'd been avoiding answering. I just sighed and dropped my gaze to the ground, "It's a day I wish I could forget..." I realized I'd let my guard drop down and quickly put the walls back up. "It doesn't really matter. Just wasn't a good day for me, and that's as far as that's going. Anyways, I just can't wait until I get out of here. I need to figure out what to do with my life."

The smile, this time a bit more sad, returned to my face in an attempt to cover up my faux-pas. I figured it probably wouldn't work, besides, ghosts were tattle-tales. Jake would probably know. 'Jake, please, if you know about my parents, don't tell Scar,' I sent out the silent plea to Jake, just in case.

I laughed lightly at Viv."Meh, I do all the time.She attacked whatever moves.." she sighed and put her hands on her hips, then out of the blue that fat tortoiseshell cat hissed at Viv."Skittles!" I growled.Jake looked over at her new friends and winked,his aura Yellow and mixed with a little pink I looked in between the too then quickly shrugged it off.

Scarlett looked at Viv with soft eyes, she obviously has gone threw some tough times.And Scar probably knew how she felt, she wanted to hug Viv and comfort her as a friend.But then that would be totally weird since they had only met about seven minutes ago.

The smile returned to my face when the cat hissed, showing she clearly understood me. "I'm sorry. I told your cat if she attacked Wynn I'd drop-kick her over the school," I shrugged, "But yeah, maybe I'll tell you about that someday. Not yet, though." I motioned for us to go sit on the nearby bench, quickly gliding over and sitting down gracefully. "So, do you like it here? I do, much better than my old school. I'm still a bit of a loner, like, I live alone and all, but I'm not harassed as much" I smiled good-naturedly at her, thinking about how nice it was for a change to have a friend to talk to.

I laughed.Not even a little or a chuckled,I laughed very loudly and it was fairly embarrassing.I quickly followed the other vamp and sat down beside her I shrugged and answered her question."Yeah..Well...I shouldn't say that.I had great friends and an awesome school I loved..It was just home I hated,and my Ex." I starred off into space and randomly started petting my cat as she purred loudly. Scar snapped out of her daze of her old life and smiled at Viv."Well you're no loner anymore! You've got moi!" I put my hands over my heart.

I smiled as she said I had her. "Yes I do!" I smiled brighty. 'Maybe I should tell her about my past, it wouldn't hurt to let her know,' I thought to myself before opening my mouth. "I didn't really have a home or friends when I came here. I was always bullied and a loner at school, so when my parents gave me a chance to move here I said yes. But that was a mistake, since my parents were killed in the plane crash... I was marked while coming back from their funeral... I can still talk to them, but it's not the same, they, and Wynn, were all I had," I told her quietly, looking down to keep from crying. I wasn't going to cry, that wasn't me. But I trusted Scar, she already knew about my powers. Besides, I would've told her eventually.

"Oh,Viv." I wrapped an arm around Viv and hugged her."That's awful,as long as you can still talk to them" she looked at her friends and felt terribly bad for her, and then coming here after losing her 'rents she gets bullied and picked on."I knew from the first time I met you you could take care of yourself,but if anyone touches you.You can tell me.I'll Destroy them." I said very sternly.She soon saw that Viv was on the verge of tears she hugged her tighter and prayed to herself that she wasn't going to cry either.It was weird.Once Scar saw someone else cry she would start up too.It sucked.

I looked up to see her on the verge of tears, and I laughed. "Oh no, don't you start crying! I'll start to cry and then we'll both look like blubbering idiots," I remarked, sniffing and wiping the water out of my eyes, hugging her back, "Thanks, Scar. I can handle them, but you can be my backup!" I joked, smiling again.

I thought for a moment before asking my next question. "Do you have a roommate?" I asked, and it was pretty self-explanatory that I was wondering if I could be her roommate.
