Cold Feet ( part 2 )



Season 2

Episode 4 ( part Two )


~ The Next Morning ~

I open my eyes to be blinded by sunlight and my nostrils infused with the smell of  blueberry waffles being made.

I also was awaken by gabby watching her favorite tv show inside our bedroom.

She sat innocently on the edge of the bed with her hair all messy still in her pj.

" good morning gabby" I spoke while adjusting myself in the covers.

She turned her head towards me with a big smile while munching on a carrot.

" hey mommy. Daddy making waffles" her voice inclined with excitement.

I smiled before looking off on the side of her to see a paper with only a specific amount of color pencil.

" Hey what's that?" I asked as the paper now had my undivided attention.

She spun around before crawling up to where I was.

" I don't know" she shrugged her shoulders " I just had to draw it" she exclaimed.

" can I see?" I extended my hand.

She nodded repeatedly before the paper was now in my grasp.

Flipping it over I frown as it was a picture of a ghost.

As I looked closely the body was laid in a fetal position down inside a well.

Could this be where Dylan body had died at?.

As I observed the drawing some more, it quickly came to an abrupt end when I heard the sound of Andrew shoes walking up the steps .

With no time to spare I shoved the drawing underneath my pillow before placing gabby inside my lap

" good morning to my two favorite girls"

" good morning daddy!" Gabby said escaping me and darting for Andrew.

More so for the stacks of waffles he had on the plate that was inside his hands.

I laughed before adjusting the pillows to where they could prop me up against the headboard.

" good morning, I see you come with gifts"

He laughed before glancing at the food than back to me.

" here you are princess" he said placing the plate in front of gabby.

" make sure you eat them  over that towel, daddy wouldn't like to sleep in maple syrup" he joke.

She giggle, while shoving her hair from out her face.

" okay I won't make no mess"

As our daughter continue to watch her shows Andrew than took a seat on his side of the bed while moving his hand over in my direction.

" here you go baby yours have a bit more crisp to them as I know that's how you love your waffles" Andrew said.

Rubbing my fingers down from his shoulder to arms I lean over to place a kiss on his red cheek.

" thank you. This is what I love not us fighting and at each other head"

He nodded while leaning back on the bed.

" too bad we have company because I wanted to do more than just watch you eat those waffles"

Covering my face from his crazy comment I reveal myself again but to my surprise we had another company.

" mommy, why is there a boy standing in the middle of the doorway?" Gabby asked.

You would think a four year  old girl would be frightened at the things she saw, but she wasn't.

" wha... what she mean grace?"

I looked over at Andrew who was already slowly standing to his feet.

Even though he could not see the spirits I loved how he would make us feel so protected as if he could fight them away.

Sometimes I wish it could be that simple.

" uh, it's just a spirit that I've met earlier. He went missing two days ago which unfortunately today is his big day"

" big day for what?. I don't like how they can just come and go in our house whenever they please" Andrew explained

" I 100 percent agree with you Drew, but you already know how this goes."

" his getting married daddy." Gabby added.

Andrew sigh before folding his arms up to his chest.

" Dylan I'm sure you are aware of our family time and I can help you, but let me get myself together that way we could do this in a more respectful and professional manner"

" sorry I didn't mean to impose... I just felt like today out of all days will be the worst for Mya."

" well if you want maybe we can go see her. This news will not be easy on Mya, but I'm sure she could definitely use some closure as she may feel that it was her fault for your disappearance"

He nodded and I could feel just how upset he was for leaving her unintentionally.

" I know where she would be. It's crazy because every since I died , I've been following her and let's just say she's not in a very good head space as I would hope she would have been"

Andrew soon walked out the bedroom with no words and with gabby with him.

I palm my face but I knew it wasn't much that I could I do right now but to help Dylan.

He needs to crossover and I was willing to give him that.

" do you know where the wedding was suppose to be held?"

Dylan nodding again now vanishing from out my bedroom and standing at my vehicle.

Moments later I walked into the bathroom to get myself together for the big day.

****

~ Lover Bells  Chruch ~

Pulling up into this enormous church was one for the eyes to see.

My mouth drop and all I could do was smile at the decor around the building.

" wow her family must have decorated the place over the weekend" Dylan said as he sat next to me.

I looked over with the most  sadden look on my face.

This wasn't the way anyone's wedding should have suppose to go.

It requires both parties to be present and one will never get the chance.

My fingers was a bit sweaty as I never would have thought I could get nervous.

Telling this young girl who was so hoping for her fiancé to be found that he was deceased.

Both of them young and now her dreams are shattered by this terrible tragedy.

Taking in a deep breath I sat in the car for a moment just to check out the scenery.

" she's here"

" what?" I asked

" she's inside. Her car is parked right there by the entrance" Dylan than pointed out the window as I turn my head in the direction.

" let's go" I said unbuckling my seatbelt .

Exiting out the car I closed my jacket up a bit as the winds was blowing a bit harder than expected.

Stomping my heels towards the steps I walked up now facing the church doors.

Looking back there was no sign of Dylan.

Facing back at the entrance I looked down to see the doors was cracked open.

Letting myself inside the church, I looked around before closing the doors behind me.

" Mya" I whisper while I tried not to have my heels clank against the wooden floors to hard.

" hey Mya, it's me, grace myers. I come to you with some information about your fiancé Dylan may"

The place was very much cold and chilling as all the lights was completely off but the few candle lights I could make out near the front of church.

I slowly walked down the aisle trying to keep a positive mind about everything.

Once I made it to the front i sighed.

" oh, there you are. I was calling for you"

Mya was sitting on her knees with her face buried deep into the palms of her hands.

She was dressed inside her beautiful wedding gown.

" I know why you're here."

I cleared my throat as I walked over by one of the benches to take a seat.

" I was hoping you would get back with me in terms of what's been happening and the new information that I received"

Mya shook her head before lifting up.

Her face was covered with the smearing of her makeup and tears as I knew she had been crying heavily.

" why should I hmm? He's gone. The lover of my life is dead!."

" Mya"

" No!" She spoke aloud. " you don't get to console me, no one can at this point. You know I found out that his body was recovered at the bottom of some dirty well just a few blocks away from my home. Do you know how that made me feel knowing that he suffer for 12 hours in a fucking well. No help, no way out, alone in the dark, with Broken bones"

I quickly brush my tear that was escaping from my eyes but it was already too late and the droplets began hitting my wrist.

" Mya I can't express to you the things that I'm sure is going through your head right now but Dylan is still here with us right now"

" what" she said looking up at me

" he's still here, Right now"

" he promised to have never leave me and he did"

" tell her it wasn't my fault she knew I would have never leave her. We was destined to be with one another."

" Mya Dylan wants you to know that it was not his intent to leave you. He knew how you both was destined to be together"

Mya started to cry even harder as she rocked back and forth while still being on her knees.

" I feel like  this was all my fault and now his dead"

" wait why do you feel like you are responsible for his death Mya?" I question.

She sat quietly for a moment before she finally faced me, but still not leaving her spot where the candles was surrounding her.

" because I am, if it wasn't for me pressuring him so badly into this marriage he would still be here"

"Wait absolutely no. Mya no one could have predicted this would have happened."

" it doesn't matter what everyone thinks. Reality of it all is that it did happen. It happen to me and now I'm lost without him"

" Grace you have to get her to talk about the good times and fast. Encourage her that what happen to me was not her fault" Dylan begged

" wait why?" I whispered.

" she has a gun behind her back. She lost the most important person in her life and I can't have her take her own life just to be with me"

" hey Mya, take me back to how you both became where you are at now."

" why would that matter" she cried.

" it matters to me Mya. Please what made you want to marry Dylan"

" there are so many reasons why I wanted Dylan to be the man of my life and my husband. As to there are so many reason why he chose me to be the women of his life and his wife."

" I can only imagine tell me about it" I said.

" try harder" Dylan said.

He must can sense something better than I can as she still was feeling down.

I would too if I was in her shoes.

" he was so pure, so sweet, kind, intelligent, smart, handsome, and most definitely not like the other guys that my parents would pick out for me to date" said Mya.

" wait your parents?" I asked.

"Yes. My parents was so strict on me with the guys that I would bring home to them. They never cared for my choices in man, and Dylan was one of those guys who they hated. I can't count how many times my parents reminded me of the mistakes that I was making with dating him."

" yeah her parents never approve of me she's right about that." He laughed "All I wanted was for Mya to be happy with whoever she wanted to be with" Dylan added.

" Mya, Dylan agrees with you. He also wanted you to know that he wanted you to be happy with whoever you decided to date."

Her watery eyes filled up quickly as I took noticed that her hands  was still  behind her back.

I knew I had to get her mind from doing the unthinkable and that was keeping her talking about her fiancé.

" so what happen when your parents found out about the engagement?"

" they was furious" she said " they wanted to disowned me and before I let that happen I convince Dylan to run away with me and just get married, unfortunately as you and I both know that day will never happen."

" Mya I can understand the defeat you may feel about everything, but look on the bright side of things he would want you to continue to live your life even though he is not here"

I looked over at Dylan who nodding his head for me to keep going.

" I also know that you have a gun behind your back and is thinking about doing something that you will regret. Dylan wouldn't want you to end your life for him. He wants you to be free now and just date whoever that will make you happy without your parents approval. You are now 18 free to make your own decisions"

" how did you know that I had a gun behind my back?" She questioned.

" I didn't. Dylan told me what you was planning on doing and he doesn't want you to take your life to be with him"

" Dylan why not? You are my rock without you I can't go on in this world. I don't want my parents to think that they was right all along and I'm force to live by their rules. Dylan I miss you so much and with you not here makes my days darker than ever"

I frown as the hurt in her eyes was so loud.

I tried to move myself a little closer but she back up.

" sorry I just want you to feel like you have someone to talk to. Doing what you are thinking won't bring Dylan back."

" Grace tell Mya  that I will always be here for her. She doesn't have to ever wonder if I will be around or not. She is my soul, and me knowing that she is alive and moving on with her life is all I need. Tell her I can move on knowing that she made peace with what's happen and can continue on with her life, meet an amazing guy, have kids, and grow old with her lover. Even though it won't be me, I will always have a place for her in my heart as I hope she would still have a place for me."

I nodded while now facing Mya again.

" Mya, Dylan wants you to know that he will always love you. He can crossover knowing that you made peace with how things ended and can start over with someone new and build a family. Just keep a small piece of him in your heart as he will do the same. You have to understand that he is gone yes, but he will watch over you every single day and night, and  you have to want to do that. You have to want to live"

" I... I can do that but why did you leave me Dylan how did you end up in a well? Did you get cold feet?"

" Dylan Mya wants to know did you get cold feet on her?"

He laughed before shaking his head.

"Getting cold feet was the least of my worries. I knew that you was the one for me and I knew marrying you was the right thing to do, however days before our big day I  fell sick with a virus and I was on my way to the store. With my mom having the car I decided to walk I knew it wasn't far and I thought getting some fresh air would work. I wish I stayed home  that night, after walking a few blocks I could feel a sharp pain ripping through my chest and just when I dodge a stick everything that  I once knew went black and I felt myself falling backwards.

" what happen next" I asked softly.

" I fell twenty feet down inside the well. You would have thought that with that type of impact that I would have died instantly, but I didn't Instead I was left in the dark and in pain for 12  hours. Than everything faded and I found myself looking down at my lifeless body.

" what's he saying grace? I need to know that he's at peace" Mya said shaking.

" he's at peace Mya, he was just telling me that he would have never gotten cold feet when it comes to you. He wanted to marry you deeply but a virus can over him causing Dylan to get sharp pains in his chest that resulted in him losing balance and falling twenty feet into a well"

" what! Oh my gosh I can't...."

" hey, hey its okay Mya. He is at peace now. All that Dylan truly wants is for you to not pull that trigger."

" Grace tell her if she wants me to really be happy and at peace tell her to live her life. Do not take it for me"

I nodded while turning back to Mya.

" again all that Dylan wants is for you to live. He wouldn't want you to take your life for him please Mya I'm begging you do not do it"

It took me I would say nearly two hours to talk Mya off the point of no return.

" okay for you Dylan I will keep living, but please don't forget about me"

" I would never" he spoke.

She eventually came to terms with the fact that Dylan was gone but never forgotten and she was finally okay with it.

Best news to hear at this point.

I looked back over at Dylan who was smiling at the sight of seeing the bright and warm light appearing.

" is... is that for me?" He asked

" yes. It is now go into it I will watch over Mya I promise" I said.

" where.... Where is  he going grace"

Mya then raised to her feet while slowly walking into my arms.

" he's crossing over. He's going to the place where he belongs. You made that possible Mya"

Mya tears rolled down her cheek as I watch as Dylan walked over to kiss her forehead.

She gasp before reaching her hand up to the spot where he kissed her.

Dylan waved one more time before walking into the big bright light leaving nothing behind than a dark cold church with a few candles lit.

I continued to hold onto Mya until she was calm enough to go home.

" grace if it wasn't for you tonight I don't think I would still be standing here. I really wanted to end it all tonight, I can't thank you enough"

" this is what I was born to do. I'm just glad I don't have to break sad news to your family tonight. Come on let's go home."

Leaning over I blew out the candles as we both walked out the church side by side.
