Chapter 9 - chapter nine

When I existed from the bathroom, I saw Xavier staring at the Justin bieber's posters on my wall.

"You must really be a big fan" I heard him say.

"Yeah" I replied heading downstairs.

Before I got there Xavier was already at the kitchen,

"How the heck did you get down here" I asked

"Cause I didn't see you walk pass me".

Xavier groaned tiredly

"You really asking me that" he asked.

"Oh my bad" I said

How can I forget im standing right in front of a ghost, which I'm seriously still finding hard to believe.

I was interrupted from my thoughts when I heard my phone ringing,

"Oh I must have forgotten it here" I said to myself.

I took the phone from the table and saw it was Zion calling me.

I was really surprised cause Zion has never called me before.

I hesitated before picking the call.

"Hey" I heard Zion say

"Hi" I replied quite shyly

"I was wondering if you would like to hang out with me, maybe we can go watch a movie.

"I will pick you up" zion added.

"I'm sorry Zion but I can't maybe another time" I replied.

"Oh sure "zion replied quite disappointed.

"Bye see you at school"

"Bye" with that I cut the call

I really felt bad for turning Zion down like that, but i'm not really in the mood for a hangout right now.

"Are you okay" I heard Xavier ask

"Yeah" I replied

I just remembered Zion and Xavier has the same surnames. I decided to ask and moreover is just a harmless question.

"Xavier"

He hummed in reply to indicate he was listening,

"Do you by any chance know a person called Zion occoner" I asked

I saw hurt, anger and pain flash through his eyes all at once.

Ok that's strange.

"Why are you asking" he asked looking at me with angry eyes.

Ok it definitely wasn't just a harmless question.

"Uhmmm i-i wa-was just wondering cause you guys have similar surname" I said stuttering a bit

"It is just a coincidence I don't know him" I heard Xavier say with a bitter tone .

Asking Xavier about Zion just changed his mood within a second.

That's definitely not a coincidence

I guess,I would also just have to ask Zion about it I thought to myself

"Uhmm ok a coincidence I guess" I said while looking at Xavier not want to push the issue.

He didn't say anything he was just staring at me blankly.

I quickly sat down to eat my lunch I was starving.

While i was eating I could sense Xavier looking at me.

"Is there something on my face" I asked

"No" he replied while still staring at me

"Stop staring at me like that, you making me uncomfortable" I said.

He didn't reply.

He just kept staring at me.

"Ughhhhh" I groaned quite annoyed

"You know for a ghost you are really annoying"

I said while getting up I was really getting quite irritated.

"Really" I heard him say.

"Yeah" I replied.

When I was done eating I quickly tidied up the kitchen I turned around but didn't find Xavier there maybe he left,I said out loud.

"Looking for me" I heard Xavier say.

"Oh my gosh"

"You scared me I told you to stop creeping up on me like that"

I added with my hands still on my chest.

"I thought you said I was annoying" Xavier asked smirking.

"So why are you looking for me" he asked still smirking I wish I could just slap that smirk off his face, I thought to myself.

"I wasn't looking for you" I said while heading upstairs, when I got there only to find Xavier sitting on my bed.

"hmm this was once my bed" he said while staring at the bed,

"oh"

I was really confused about Xavier saying this house used to be his house but my dad said the house belonged to his grand parents.

My dad is keeping something from me and am definitely going to find out.
