Worthington Manor - 18. Chapter 18

"Want some sweats or something to sleep in?” asked Justin

“You know, wearing clothes doesn’t really come to mind when I think of sleeping in the same bed as you.”

Justin giggled, took him by the chin and laid one on him, a kiss that is.

“Not tonight okay. I just want to enjoy being able to hold you in my arms for the whole night.” said Justin

Luke kissed back and then climbed into bed with him. That night, they slept better than wither of them had ever slept before. Until, it got cold. So cold that it woke Luke, he woke Justin.

“Baby, do you feel that cold.”

“What! What did you say?” asked Justin

“It just got really cold all of a sudden.” said Luke

“There’s something that I need to tell you.”

“What?”

“Occasionally, there’s this ghost that visits.”

“Ghost!” yelled Luke

“Yeah, she doesn’t ever do me any harm, but I just thought I’d let you know because right before she shows up it always gets really cold.”

Suddenly, they heard her cry. It was short.

“Did you hear that?” asked Luke in fear.

“That’s her.” said Justin.

“Hold me Justin.”

Justin grabbed Luke and held him tight and close. Once the crying started though, it made Luke sad rather than scared.

“She sounds so sad.” said Luke

“All she does when she shows up is cry.” said Justin

The crying was the same, but it got louder. The room started to shake. Drawers started open and shut in a violent manor. Luke started to shake, in fear, and Justin held him tighter. Justin was still scared, but he was a lot calmer than Luke was at the moment. Justin’s things started to fly off of Justin’s shelves. A couple of his glass decorations even broke.

“Please Don’t! No!” yelled the ghost.

The room suddenly stood still. The couple looked around the room. In the same spot as before, the girl appeared once again. This time, she had bloody bruises all over her face and legs.

“P-Please h-help me.” she said in a shaky voice

Goose bumps cascaded all through Luke’s body. He was freezing. Justin rubbed his hands up and down the side of Luke’s arms. She disappeared once she got her message across. The room warmed up and Justin let go of Luke

“No, don’t let go.”

“Okay” said Justin as he embraced Luke again.

“What in the hell was that?”

“That was the little girl that died in my room. Well, at least I think that she died in here.” said Justin

“That was intense.”

“Yeah, it’s like it’s getting worse every time she comes. The first time, I didn’t even see her. All that happened was I heard her cry.” said Justin

“We have to do something, Justin.” said Luke

“Like what?”

“She wants our help.” said Luke

“She’s dead Luke, she’s beyond help.”

“Maybe she wants our help to cross over.” said Luke.

“Let’s just talk about it tomorrow.” said Justin. “Let’s go back to sleep.”

Luke sighed.

“Okay”

The next morning, Justin woke up to find that Luke no where in his room. Justin got out of his bed and wandered into the hallway. He looked to his left, and then looked to his right. He saw Kevin at the end of the hall. He ignored Justin and went about his business. Justin looked all over the house, but Luke was no where to be found. He next ran into Ashley.

“Hey Ash, have you seen Luke?” asked Justin

“Is Luke your boyfriend?” asked Ashley

“Yes, now tell me if you’ve seen him or not.” said Justin

“Yeah, I saw him early this morning. Did he sleep over?”

“Yes; did he say anything to you?”

“Yeah, he said to tell you that he would be back.” said Ashley

“Okay, thanks Ashley.”

He gave her a hug and headed off to his bathroom. He was in the shower when all of a sudden he heard he door open.

“Hey I’m in the shower!” he yelled

“Relax it’s me, Luke.”

Justin pulled the shower curtain only revealing his head.

“Where did you go?” asked Justin. “I was worried about you.”

“I went to the library to do some research on your house.” said Luke

“Well, tell me after I’m done.” said Justin.

“Why don’t I just join you.” said Luke as he locked the bathroom door.

“Sounds good.” said Justin

Luke stripped and joined Justin in the shower. Luke helped Justin finish his shower and then they made love. They made love three times. By the end of the third, Ashley was banging on the door, begging for Justin to let her use the bathroom because the others were taken. They panicked. What were they going to do?

“I’ll be out in a minute!” yelled Justin.

“Crap, what are we going to do?” whispered Luke

“Oh, no; I don’t have any clothes.” whispered Justin

“Who’s complaining on that?” asked Luke touching his love.

“No, no, no you don’t understand. I can’t come out of the bathroom naked with you. She’s going to tell my mom.” said Justin

“So what” asked Luke

“Well if my mom thinks that we’re having sex here, she won’t let you come over anymore.” said Justin

“We’ll just explain to Ashley that we were just talking.” said Luke

“She’s not stupid Luke. She’s going to know what’s going on.”

“Well, if your mother won’t let us be together here, then we can just be together at my place.” said Luke

“Well here goes nothing.” said Justin, putting a towel around his waist, the both of them still wet.

They both walked out of the bathroom, Luke with his clothes on, but still wet and Justin in just his towel. They tried to make like everything was cool, but Ashley was still suspicious. She walked into the bathroom, but still following Justin and Luke with her eyes. They went into Justin’s room where he finished drying. Justin then started to look for clothes to get dressed.

“You know, I like you a lot more with your clothes off.” said Luke

“I’m starting to think that all you want me for is sex.” said Justin

“Oh you know that’s not true, and for your soft lips too.” said Luke as he wrapped his arms around Justin’s neck and kissed him.

Justin slipped a t-shirt on and then he was fully dressed.

“So what were you saying about you doing research at the library?” asked Justin

“Well I tried to look up all of the information on your house, but it’s so weird. Any record of this house before 1960 is deleted, non-existent, not found or not available to the public.” said Luke

“Well, did you take a look at any of them that you could?’ asked Justin

“Well I didn’t really see the point. The girl that we saw looked as if she was more from the Victorian era.” said Luke

“Well, maybe we can find some other way to help her.” said Justin

“I know a way that you could help me.” said Luke

“Oh and what’s that?” asked Justin in a sexy voice.

“Hold me and kiss me.” said Luke

Justin wrapped his arms around Luke’s waist, pulled him close and started by kissing him on the side of his neck, then his jaw, then his cheek, and finally his lips. Luke moaned as his love put his lips all over his body. After Justin was done, he hugged Luke. Luke rested the side of head against Justin’s chest.
