She's A Mystery, chapter 3

They finish drinking their coffee, Sophie was still upset but they didn't know what to do and that question was still lingering.

Mike: 'I'm gonna go turn on the news'

He walks into the living room turning the T.V on; his face goes white as the news reports of a billionaire's daughter being killed in a car accident, she was his only heir, he saw her mother crying while her father was being asked questions by reporters but he didn't answer

Sophie: 'Anything exciting?'
Mike: 'Uh... No'

He quickly changes the channel

Tre: 'Can we watch cartoons?'

Billie Joe laughs

Mike: 'Sure Tre'

They sit on the couch and watch bugs bunny and co do their crazy antics for an hour before Sophie disappears

Billie Joe: 'Fucking hell'
Tre: 'Where did she go?'
Mike: 'I don't know... but I think it's about time we got dressed and talked to Rob'

Billie Joe and Tre agree and go get ready

Mike: 'Rob... calm down it's ok... we understand... go to her funeral... family comes first you know that... anyway we could use a break... ok... take care... bye Rob'
Billie Joe: 'Is he ok?'
Mike: 'He's ok but upset'
Tre: 'Who was the girl?'
Mike: 'Guess?'
Billie Joe: 'Fuck no'
Mike: 'Yep... Rob's cousin was her father... they still don't why she jumped in front of the truck though... no signs... nothing'
Tre: 'Why did she come to us?'
Billie Joe: 'It's that question and why she killed herself that is puzzling me... we should ask'
Mike: 'No... come on guys we don't know her... and it's rude... and not mention strange... asking a dead person why they killed themselves'
Tre: 'Yeah but we have to know... we could tell Rob'
Billie Joe: 'Like he'd believe us'

They sit at the table, it was still awkward for them to be talking about this, not to mention they had made friends with a dead billionaires daughter
The day passed with doing very little, Billie Joe decided to go shopping, Tre popped home for a few things while Mike was left alone watching T.V, he gets up wanting a drink of water, he turns the tap then raises the glass to his lips and in shock spits the drink at the window, she points at him through the window laughing

Mike: 'That... was not... funny... I could have choked'

She disappears then reappears behind making him jump once again

Sophie: 'I'm getting good at this'
Mike: 'Please warn us before you do it'
Sophie: 'Ok... I'm sorry'

They start to walk to the living room

Mike: 'Where did you go this morning?'

She sits down on the couch

Sophie: 'I kept hearing voices... so I followed them... guess where they lead me?'
Mike: 'Uh... Heaven'
Sophie: 'Yeah'
Mike: 'Wow'
Sophie: 'It wasn't as nice as my mum used to describe... but it was still cool... and look'

She stands up and close her eyes for a second and to Mike's surprise a pair of wings appear

Mike: 'That's so cool'

He stands up to touch them

Billie Joe: 'Wo... dude... getting a bit kinky are we?'

Mike and Sophie jump

Mike: 'No she was showing me her wings'

Billie Joe walks over

Billie Joe: 'Shiny'

Sophie laughs, then Tre walks in, he stares at her wings

Tre: 'Nice... but I'm confused... don't you go to hell if you commit suicide'
Billie Joe: 'Tre!'

Billie Joe punches him in the arm

Sophie: 'No it's true... but you can redeem yourself'
Mike: 'How?'
Sophie: 'By doing good deeds'
Billie Joe: 'Fair enough'
Tre: 'Ok... here's your first one... make me a sandwich'

Mike smacks him round the head

Sophie: 'No it's ok... what type would you like?'
Tre: 'Chicken and mayonnaise'
Sophie: 'Nice choice'

She walks to the kitchen, Billie Joe and Mike glare at Tre but he simply shrugs and sits down reaching for one of Billie's beers, Mike and Billie Joe soon sit down with him then Sophie returns handing Tre the sandwich

Tre: 'Thanks'
Sophie: 'That's ok... do you guys want anything?'
Mike: 'No thanks'
Billie Joe: 'Unless your good at foot massages'
Sophie: 'Ewwww'

They all laugh

Tre: 'Whose being demanding now?'

Billie sticks his tongue out at Tre, Sophie sits on the arm of the couch next to Mike, they watch random programs, one about plastic surgery, although they hated it they just couldn't change the channel

Tre: 'Try the 18 channels'
Mike: 'Tre!'

Billie Joe shakes his head while Sophie giggles and walks up behind Tre

Sophie: 'I'll be your dominated love slave... '

Tre raises an eyebrow

Sophie: '... However... I'm dead'
Tre: 'Yes... but you can still touch things'

Sophie winks at him while Mike and Billie Joe just stare in shock
They decide to watch a movie instead

Billie Joe: 'I'm going to bed... I'm wrecked... and Tre keeps giving me funny looks'
Tre: 'Their my horny faces'
Billie Joe: 'No wonder you've been divorced twice'
Mike: 'Ouch... low blow'

Tre chucks a sofa cushion at him, it hits him in the back but Billie just keeps walking

Tre: 'I'm going to join him'

Tre winks at them

Mike: 'He's gonna kick your ass'
Tre: 'Let's hope so'

Sophie bursts out laughing, so much so that she falls over into Mike's lap; he looks down at her and laughs, then closes his eyes

Mike: 'Your riding up dear'

She looks at her dress; she pulls it down

Sophie: 'Thank you for being a gentleman'
Mike: 'That's ok... how old are you anyway?'
Sophie: '18... almost 19'
Mike: 'You don't look it'
Sophie: 'I know... it's such a pain'
Mike: 'Do you get to change your clothes?'
Sophie: 'I don't know... I'll have to ask'

Mike chuckles before getting serious

Mike: 'Sophie... I know it's none of my business... but why did you kill yourself?'

Sophie sighs

Sophie: 'It's a long story... and I am not ready to tell it... and you are not ready to hear it'

She slides down so she's sitting on his lap; she rests her head against his chest

Mike: 'Do you regret it?'
Sophie: 'No'

She closes her eyes focusing on his heart beat, before he knew it she was fast asleep curled up on his lap, he smiles to himself

Mike: 'Come on... time for bed'

He cradles her as he lifts her up and makes his way to the stairs, he pushes open his door and places her on the sheets, she really did look like an angel, he touches her cheek before kissing her forehead and leaving
