“well…except your brother” she said with a smile, half to cheer him up and half to see his reaction. If his brother was involved… he would likely know it on some level…. The only question was getting him to realize it if that was the case. She half hoped that the brother was innocent…simply because she was starting to feel sorry for Al….
|
Al nodded a bit and sighed "He was the only one... Oh there was a rumor that I killed my self... I don't remember doing it. But A lot of people suggested I'd killed my self cause my brother abused me or something.." He shrugged "If I killed my self I think I'd remember..."
|
Sherry suppressed a sigh but nodded, saying quietly “Maybe… we’ll figure something out…” She then shrugged, walking in and starting up to her apartment. The bag in one hand she began to search her many pockets of her black cargo style pants for her keys… she could never remember what was in each pocket.. She just put too much stuff in there!.
|
Al stood there looking at the door, "I can open it for you..." He offered as one arm reached through the wall feeling around for the key, "Touching things is so weird now...I spent a whole year figuring it out..." He said with a small smile. He seemed proud of this, "But I ...can't really touch things I've never felt before...like its a memory thing..."
|
Sherry watched him a moment in thought, memory thing… perhaps that was why her attacker’s ghost could only touch her and not her father… She shook off the thought, wishing she could forget the struggle that nearly killed her. She then flashed him a smile, shaking her head with that usual independence that drove her father crazy. “That’s alright, I have the key here… somewhere…”
She had been this way since she was six, telling her father she could ‘do it herself’. She didn’t pause until she found her key, giving a satisfied smile before unlocking and opening the door. She held it out a moment and grinned at him before putting the key in her pocket. Walking in she called out “Dad! I’m home!” |
Al followed her in and walked over to the couch sitting down, he waited patiently for her to get her things sorted out.
He actually felt like he'd bothered her enough as it was for now. He rested his head on his hands and stared out the window with a wistful smile, "Heh....I do miss being alive.." He grinned a little, "If I was alive this would be like a date...and I could be sitting on the couch fidgeting nervously while you introduce your dad" He laguhed at this, but really it was something he'd never experienced that he really wished he had. He still knew enough about himself to know that he had been pretty anti-social. He'd been branded emo and goth and all sorts of different things in school. School was all he could really remember though. Maybe it was because he was always going back there... |
Sherry shrugged, blushing a little. “Maybe it would be.. I don’t know… never met anyone worth introducing to my dad….” She said in a near whisper, still looking for her dad. She found him finally, causing her to hold out the bag as he walked out from his desk. He greeted her and kissed her on the forehead but as he was taking the treat from the brown paper bag he sighed. “Got a call… I’ll be back when I can Sher’” He told her with a smile, putting the pastry in his mouth as he grabbed his coat and stepped out. He had that tired look… she knew what that meant… child case. “Poor dad…” she murmured quietly.
|
"Your dad an officer?" Al asked watching him walk out the door, "That's actually pretty lucky of me then" He said with a small smile.
He'd caught her blush but he wasn't going to call her on it. Even as a ghost he still had that much tact. |
“Yeah… detective to be precise” she answered with half a smile, walking to perch on the end of a chair a moment. She was frowning in thought as she muttered, “I know that look…it’s a child case. He won’t be in a talking mood for a little bit…” She shrugged, knowing how it bothered him… She had no idea that there were going to be a lot of child cases very soon…
((Me has plot idea XD)) |
((Orly? :3 Sounds interesting from what your hinting at...Actually if your going with it where I think you are it works out with what I had intended intially))
Al watched her and sighed "Guess you can ask him for information about my case then..." He said standing up and walking towards the Patio, He walked into the kitchen and started idly opening the cabinets and peeking in them. |
((hehe maybe XD))
“Later yeah….” She said quietly, sighing gently as well. As she gazed out the window in thought she found herself surprised by the noise. She jumped then walked to the kitchen, getting a glass of milk to go with her sweet. “What are you doing?” She asked with a slightly perplexed tone. |
Al blinked looking back at her, "Huh...Oh...habit...I think." He looked a little confused by his own actions.
He smiled nervously ans stepped back, "I guess I'm a little nosey...or a Grazer who knows" He shrugged a bit as he backed away and hopped up on the counter. SPOILER |
