Sex with a Ghost 1&2

"Let's get something to eat, am famished" he beckoned on David's neighbour and she walked over.

"I can see our date has arrived" she turned to her and said "You are welcomed, dear"

"Thanks" she responded.

They both made their orders and Peter asked for a bottle of wine and two glasses. That should keep them busy while they await the food. In about a minute she came with their request. Peter brought out his wallet to pay; a piece of paper fell from his pocket. Nevaeh picked it up.

The waitress left and they were alone. Peter opened the wine and filled their glasses. She took her glass and after a toast asked

"You went to the hospital today?"

"Yes," he was stunned "How did you know?"

"Your result from the hospital, it fell out from your pocket" she handled it back.

"It is my HIV result"

"Can I ask whether you are positive or negative?" she said sipping her drink.

Peter refused to answer; instead, he gave her the folded paper. She unfolded it and discovered he was negative. Her smile was quick, tremulous and dissolved instantly; and Peter noticed.

"You are not happy am negative?"

She tittered "Why won't I? HIV isn't what someone should joke with"

"Am telling you" Peter added.

"While we wait for the food, let me use the bathroom. I will be back in seconds" she stood up and left for the restroom after excusing herself.

In the restroom, Nevaeh stood staring at the bathroom mirror, lost in thought. Peter's result changes everything. Him being negative means he didn't infect Heaven with the virus and as such didn't cause her death. But that wasn't possible, her out of body has never been wrong. Could it be that she met a demon that turned into her sister? Maybe she met one of those evil spirits her father warned her about. Is that even possible too?

What if the HIV was faked? Peter could have faked it; but why would he? He doesn't even know Heaven is dead. Nothing made any sense; this result alters everything. Two things are certain though. Peter is innocent and she killed David for absolutely nothing.

Her mind stalled. She felt disconnected. Then the image of David wearing his charming smile flashed behind her eyes like quicksand. Guilt and regret washed over her. Her heart began pounding double-time. She killed the one person that really cared for her. Her eyes burn with hot tears and dread grabbed hold of her heart.

Could she really be crazy? Maybe her family and friends were right after all. She is just crazy, seeing things that were not there. She was never a Medium, never gifted. She is just suffering from PTSD and needs treatment. Possessed by an evil spirit and she needs deliverance.

She blinked and sniffed before she shed any tears. The shock of it all was settling in. The harsh reality hit her hard and the tears that once burnt her eyes, stream down her cheeks. She sat down on the toilet seat and wept softly.

Few minutes after, she wept her tears and stopped crying. She is not going to let that spoil this evening. She will go back out there and continue pretending been her sister. She will go with the flow and prepare for whatever happens. Her father's pistol is in her handbag, and with that, she can take charge of any situation. The person with the gun is always the strongest in the room.

She joined Peter back at the table, the meal had been served.

"What's wrong?" Peter asked observing the sudden pain in her eyes.

"How do you mean?"

"You look sad. Hope I did nothing wrong?"

"You did a long time ago. While in the bathroom, I recalled how I felt that very morning after you left and never called"

"Am really sorry but it isn't what you think" Peter apologized.

"Tell me what happened. Why did you leave without telling me?" she asked pretending to cry.

He took a deep breath to release some tension. It won't be easy reliving the event of that very day. But he went on to narrate how he was kidnapped, escaped after stabbing one of the kidnappers and ran away. He kept running till he got to the main road; where a kind citizen carried him to the police station.

The police made him believe it was someone really close to him or knew his way about that alerted the kidnappers; so he should be careful. At first, he thought it was her, so he stayed away from her and some other people in his life, including his brother.

A month after, the same gang of kidnappers was apprehended; He was invited to come identify whether it was the same people that tried kidnapping him. In their midst, he found Mercy, the receptionist.

"So you thought I was part of the people that wanted you kidnapped?"

"No, not really, I just couldn't trust anyone. Not even my younger brother".

"It is alright. At least now we know who did."

"Yeah, believe me, I wasn't thinking straight at that particular time". He stretched his hand and reached for hers on the table and continued "So once more, I ask for your forgiveness"

"You are forgiven" she smiled and pulled away her hand. "Can we eat this food now before it gets cold?"

"Absolutely!" he said excitedly. He didn't picture it going this easily.

Nevaeh played Heaven so perfectly that Peter didn't notice a thing. They recalled their romance and soon the memory and adventure of it all danced in their minds.

He found himself admiring her; he loved the deep throaty sound of her laughter and the way her eyes rounded when he said something she didn't expect. He'd found himself fantasizing about her, wanting her, thinking about wrapping his arms around her, saying to hell with the weird nurse and kissing her so hard neither one of them would be able to think straight.

He thought about stripping off her clothes, his thumbs skimming those breasts he only caught a glimpse of, kissing her throat, then tangling his fingers in that wild mass of hairs.

His imagination ran wild, he saw himself tumbling into his bed with her, both of them completely naked, both so hot they were sweating and eager. He wanted to feel her anxious fingers on his skin as he thrust into her, not giving a fuck what anyone said.

The way she looked at him made his blood boil with desire and passion to possess her body. When he could bear it no longer, he asked to take her home and to his greatest surprise, she agreed.
