Marcus doesn't look impressed.
"What the fuck Demitri. Three hours, that's it, three hours." I laugh, I guess they failed.
"Na don't bro, seriously I never get spooked but that shit." He grabs a glass of whiskey and sits down, is he shaking?
"Well, what made you run?" Marcus looks at him.
"Noises were fine, hell even the TV cupboard door opening was fine. I debunked all that shit. The photo falling, I debunked that shit as well." We look at him waiting.
"Then the fucking TV turned on, I swear to God I thought I sat on the remote, so I turned it off, and put the remote on the side." We nod listening.
"Then the kettle switched on again I debunked it, decided the fuse was going. Then literally my fucking cup moved across the table and smashed on the floor as the TV turned back on. So here I am, giving up, they are not crazy. Whatever it is wants until you're fucking alone." Marcus nods. Clearly, even he realises for Demitri to be shaken u
"Okay, well the orphanage Kitty, it was only home to 15 girls, 4 in each room. Ranging from 5 years to 15, the woman who looked after them had a breakdown, apparently poisoned them all, 14 girls survived, one died, she was 6." I stare at him, is that a joke? "The family after, the woman moved into the house in her late 60's died in her sleep of old age at 82, after that, a family lived there for 30 years with no issues. The next family, the mum died doesn't say how though, just she was found in the house. Again, no issues after that Kitty." I feel my body shake as it goes cold. "This house, one family Kitty, the person I bought it off, the guy had it built, they lived here for 30 years then moved out, old age so retirement home." I sit staring at him. "Kitty, this is why I didn't want to go into detail, now your freaking out. This is why I would rather not tell Demitri because he will tell Analise, most ghosts don't hurt people, or intend to. Whatever it is,
**Marcus**Rolling over I smile, I should have slept on the plane, but I couldn't, I look around for Anaya but can't see her. Getting up I get showered and ready, I guess she has gone for food. Sitting, I wait an hour and try calling her. Listening as it goes straight to voice mail, where would she have gone? Ispend another hour trying to call her on and off, with no luck, looking around me I begin to panic. Dialing Demitri's number I wait for his answer."You caught me just in time, what’s up?" I look at the clock, he will just be getting off the plane now."Any chance Anaya has called or messaged you this morning? Well, our time here this morning?" I wait as he stays quiet."No, nothing why? She changed her mind?" I hope that is all."No idea, she was off last night, I suggested we go home, but she told me running wouldn't help. Woke up and she is gone, her phone is going to voice mail, I know I will be panicking for nothing, but why is her phone off?" I need to relax, she will be
Climbing in I sit seeing Marcus and Demitri talking outside, Demitri gets in his car as Marcus joins me. He begins driving, not saying anything, he stops outside the small restaurant, and walking in I see the woman smile at me. I'm not in the mood for reunions, I walk past and sit down, Marcus following me as Demitri and Analise order. They walk over with the drinks handing me one as I slowly drink it. "I am sorry Puddin." I look at Demitri confused. "As I said, I knew you were relying on me when you lost her, and I ran, I could have come back, hell I could have called. I did call, but I felt like it was too late, when I called your dad mentioned you on drugs and everything. I knew then you were bad, I didn't think I could save you." I nod, this isn't his fault. "You're not to blame Demitri, no one is other than me, I shouldn't have hidden this and pretended like it was real." Marcus shakes his head looking at me. "No, it is everyone's fault Anaya, yo
I open the door and walk out, his eyes staying fixed on me. "Erm, Kitty am I missing something?" I laugh walking towards him, his eyes staying on me. "No Master, but you remember how we kind of relived that first business meeting date we had?" He nods smiling. "I liked it, so I thought if we can do it for our first date, why can't we do it for other days? Like our wedding? I still had the dress and everything, and somehow it still fits." I laugh looking down. "So, Kitty, tonight is just like our wedding all over again?" I nod smiling. "Well, let's skip past the whole ceremony, me crying in agony, the meal all that. Let's skip to our first dance, and then back to our room." He nods standing up and walking towards me, his arms wrapping around my body. "I wonder Kitty." His fingers pull at the dress, his eyes going to look under it, my hands stopping him. "You will soon see if it is the same lingerie Master, now, the dance?" He lo
Getting outside the car is there Demitri and Analise waiting. We get in, none of us talking as we get taken to the venue. Getting out we walk in and take our seats, Shaun turning and looking at us. Well this is going to be fun, I watch as he walks over to us. "Upset anyone else, and I swear I throw you out." I look at him confused, who have I upset? "Oh, pipe down Shaun, all I did was tell your mum the truth days before the wedding. It was you who made Anaya cry on her wedding day. Go back up there before your wife walks in." Shaun looks at Demitri and walks off. "Sorted Puddin, you can enjoy Ivy's wedding and ignore him. I nod, I hope so, I watch as he walks back over, great. "Just a warning, I know things. So, if you two want to act like assholes over the baby she lost today, guarantee one of you will be divorced." He turns and walks off, I look between Marcus and Demitri confused. "It will be nothing, he has moaned leave him to it puddin."
We get off the plane, Marcus driving us home, I watch as Demitri and Analise walk into theirs. Getting out I walk to our door Marcus behind me."I am not leaving Kitty, not a fucking chance." I turn and look at him."I need to think Marcus, I need to figure this shit out in my mind. You have no idea how much I am fucking hurting right now. I just need time." I try to walk but his hands stop me."Please Kitty, I will just follow you all night, don't make me go to Jacksons because I can't live with the thought of walking back in here and finding out I lost you when I could have been fighting for you." I look at him."You never joined her again, just that one-time Marcus?" He nods."So, if I asked for every scene from when you were in the UK, she would send me them and it proves that?" He nods looking at me, I still don't know what to believe."This whole wedding was a mistake, Kitty, we should never have fucking gone." I stare at him."There you are back to making excuses and passing th
I see Issy walking towards us. "You are awful, why the hell would you do that Marcus why?" I look at Issy, she hasn't taken this well at all. "I can't believe you phoned and got me sent home for being mentally unstable, you had no rights, you, MJ and Dad had no fucking right." "I tried stopping her, Luna and Alex are next door with Demitri." I nod and smile at Jackson, I am glad, they don't need to see this argument. "I did what we all thought was best Issy, I get it, I do. Hell, even your dad gets it, losing Wayne was bad, but you have Elsie to think about." She stands staring at him. "It was my choice Marcus, mine and mine alone. You had no right removing that choice from me, if I want to live over there I could, it has nothing to do with you. I wasn't hurting anyone." I knew this would happen, she has been forced back here, forced to see where she married Wayne, everything. "Oh, grow up Issy, you're hurting Elsie, or does she not matter in your mind? She lost her fucking dad,
I feel someone watching me, my body slowly waking up, I open my eyes and jump slightly, Lucy stood in front of me staring at me. "Marcus she is awake" I look at her confused as MJ walks through. "Thanks, babe." He kisses her as she walks out, she calls him Marcus. "Sorry, Dad said to wake you, here." He hands me the phone, taking it, I hold it to my ear. "Yes?" I look at MJ watching as he walks out towards Lucy. "Right Kitty, get your arse in bed, I am sitting with Demitri sorting something with the house, it is getting late get in bed." I nod. "I was asleep, sure on the chair in the living room, but I could have just slept here." I laugh, there was no need to wake me. "Just go get some sleep Kitty, Alex and Luna are in bed, and things are sorted with her, don't worry." Nodding I hang up, walking out I see Lucy and MJ sitting and talking, a shiver running down my spine. Why would she just stand staring at me? I walk ups
