Help Me
By kassie peterson
Mason 17 older brother
Jayce 14 dead younger sister
Ashley 16 best friend
Sleep over at masons house just after the sister died
Ashley: (knocks on door)
Mason: (answers the door with faint tear stains) Hey thanks for coming.
Ashley: shhh…. Its okay (while hugging him)
Mason: (sobbing) she’s gone I can't believe she gone!
Ashley: I know…. I know shh. Its okay, I’m here (rubbing his back)
Jayce: (from behind Ashley) Hey Macey…
Mason: (Pushing away from Ashley) What the hell?!
Ashley: whats wrong Macey?
Mason: (shaken) I saw Jayce?
Ashley: what do you mean?
Mason: I saw Jayce. She was her… I saw her. (points at area where he say her)
Ashley: (concerned) I don't see anything there?
Mason: I saw her I swear!
Ashley: (in disbelief) Okay?
*later that night*
Ashley: Hey Macey. What are you doing up? (staring at the figure standing at the foot of her cot)
Mason: (no answer)
Jayce: please help me! (she winded then vanished)
Ashley: (brushed it off as to much food and soda and went back to sleep)
*At school the next day*
Ashley: Hey macey how did you sleep?
Mason: Better that you were there… Hey who were you talking to last night?
Ashley: I wasn’t talking to anyone, I must have been sleep talking I tend to do that a lot.
Mason: makes sense.
Ashley: (walks into girls bathroom)
Jayce: (appears) you lied to him. You thought he was crazy, then you herd me and then you lied to him how dare you!
Ashley: what else was I supposed to do you show up out of nowhere and say “help Me”, confuse the hell out of me. Then you expect me to tell Macey when I don’t know what the hell is going on myself!?
Jayce: (blankly stares into the mirror and vanishes)
*walks out of girls bathroom*
Ashley: Macey, I am not going to your house straight after school i’mma going to go to the story and get a few things.
Mason: Okay, thanks for letting me know.
*mason sitting in his car*
Jayce: Help me, Macey I love you please help, I really mean it Macey, Macey can you hear me? Macey?!
Mason: (can't hear her even though she is screaming at the top of her lungs)
Mason: (turns up the radio)
Jayce: (in tears) Macey… can you hear me? (vanishes)
*ashley at the store*
Ashley: (with headphones in humming reading a book about a paranormal)
Jayce: what did you do?!
Ashley: nothing (not looking up from her book)
Jayce: he can’t hear or see me what did you do?!
Ashley: i know you and I didn’t really get along, but honestly I didn’t do anything. But in all of the books about supernatural beings in order to see a ghost or in your case a dead person you have to be thinking about them.
Jayce: what does that mean?
Ashley: it means he is getting to the point where he is not in denial and he knows that you are going and is coming to terms with that, which is what I am going to do.
Jayce: no, please don’t I am all alone over here please don’t go pleas… (vanishes)
*ashley and Mason at the graveyard visiting the family tomb*
Mason: (staring at the gravestone blankley)
Ashley: you know that they will always be with you.
Mason: I know, but I can’t believe they are gone, my whole family they are gone.
Ashley: they would all be proud of the person that you have become today.
Mason: really?
Ashley: yeah who wouldn't you are a great person, with a big heart.
Mason: thanks.
(they both hug)
*character’s exit and the curtains close*
