Ghost

Solved

You open the door to your apartment and walk in. You set down your purse and carry the book Chris gave you into your room.

You notice Ricky laid out with no shirt on.

"Uh, hi," you say as you avert your eyes.

"Hi," Ricky says as he sits up. His key necklace swaying with the motion of his body.

"Um so I found the man I was looking for," you tell Ricky.

Ricky nods.

"He gave us this, it's got all the info we need," you explain to Ricky.

"Can I see it?" Ricky asks.

You hand the book over to him and he starts scanning through it.

You sit down next to him and watch as he quickly reads though it. You have no idea how he can read so fast.

"Punch me," Ricky says.

"Hmmm?" You ask in confusion.

"Punch me," Ricky says as he motions towards his face.

You shake you're head.

"I'm not punching you Ricky," you tell him.

"Do it," he says.

"No," you say.

"The book says you have to punch me for me to get my memory back," Ricky explains.

"Why do I have to punch you?" You question nervously.

"Because it says the person you have the deepest connection with, or love has to punch you," Ricky tells you.

You gulp, you know the book is referring to you.

You grumble.

"Ricky I'm not going to punch you I-," you start but then Ricky disappears.

You look around for him but don't see him anywhere.

Suddenly the light flicks off and you can't see anything.

"Ricky this isn't funny," you say as you try and see through the light.

You try and search for him but you don't see or hear anything.

Suddenly something graps your thigh and yells "boo!"

You screech and punch the thing that touched you.

You jump up and run over to the light switch.

When you turn the lights on you notice Ricky unconscious, laying on the ground.

"Oh gosh," you gulp.

You rush over to Ricky and make sure you didn't kill him.

He looks fine.

You shake you're head at the fact that Ricky actually got you to punch him.

You lift Ricky's body up and stumble a little before tossing him in the bed.

You let out a tired breath.

You go into your kitchen and grab an ice pack to place on Ricky's head.

Once you set the ice on his head you grab the book and flip to the page Ricky was looking at.

"Once they are unconscious, pour water down there throat," the book reads.

"What kind of torture is this," you mutter to yourself as you walk back into your kitchen to grab a glass of water.

You quickly walk back to Ricky.

You open his mouth and start pouring the whole glass down his throat.

After a moment he starts choking and he shoots up.

He starts coughing and you pat his back.

"Are you okay?" You ask.

"Holy crap woman! Are you trying to kill me?!?" Ricky yells through coughs.

"Hey don't get mad at me, the book said to do it," you say.

Ricky looks at the book and scrunches his eyebrows together.

"What kind of book is that," Ricky grumbles.

You chuckle.

"Do you remember anything?" You ask.

Ricky takes a moment to think.

Suddenly he turns towards you and presses his lips against yours.

You gasp but decide to kiss him back because it feels right.

You wrap your arms around his neck and pull him closer to you.

When Ricky pulls away you feel memories start to fill your brain.

"Oh gosh," you mutter.

"What?!? Was it a bad kiss? Did you not like it?" Ricky questions in a panicked tone.

"No,no. The kiss was nice. But I remember you Ricky. I remember!" You cheer.

You tackle Ricky into a hug and kiss his lips again.

Ricky kisses you back and rests his hands on your butt.

"I remember you too princess," Ricky smirks as he uses an old nickname for you.

You blush but pull him into another kiss.

"I can't believe you guys aren't human," you mutter.

Ricky shrugs.

"And how dare you get with Chris's girlfriend," you grumble.

Ricky chuckles.

"Jealous?" Ricky asks.

"No," you huff.

"That's a yes," Ricky chuckles.

He pulls you into another kiss and you smile into it.

It feels so good to know who Ricky is, to know the relationship you had. You finally feel whole again.

You finally feel happy.
