Season 2

Episode 2 ( part 2 )

• Fire station •

• next morning •

With gabby at school , I decided to go with Andrew to the event he and his crew was hosting at the fire department.

Usually around this time in the summer they would get together and do a car wash for the city.

I enjoy so many of these events as my car was always the first to be done and the best part

It was free of charge.

This time I decided to voluntarily input myself into their event by making all the guys some good lunch.

Fried chicken, Mac and cheese pasta salad, and fresh rolls was all these fellas needed.

Who wants a fireman to be doing a crappy job at washing your vehicle when your paying twenty dollars.

With my time being more so in the kitchen I peak down at the floor as I could see Andrew guiding his man on where they need to be.

The station was packed with tons of people wanting their car washed and who better to do it than some shirtless firefighters.

Now in my own world, I began to prep the rest of the chicken when an unknown force came upon me.

Quickly turning my neck towards the open door of the pantry I waited around to see if anything out the ordinary was going to happen.

Not even five seconds later a figure walked pass the doorway and a small squeal escape my lips.

Turing my head back down to see if anyone heard me I was in the clear.

Majority of the fellas was lingering outside the station and Andrew was tending to the fire trucks now.

Placing the top over the bowl of flour, I allow my heels to walked slowly over to the pantry entrance.

" hello?" I ask.

If I listen very closely I could hear rambling in the far left corner.

Walking in a little further, I parted my lips again now clenching onto my sweater as the temperature was beginning to drop.

" co..Colton is that you? Listen you don't have to act this way I'm here to help you. Just give me the name that I need to be talking too"

Moments later a couple of boxes, and Can goods started to fly off the shelf's now hitting the wall around me.

Shielding my head and ears from the impact that it was making I still remain in the door way hoping he could allow me to help him.

" Timothy Boyd. That's the guy that is going to pay for what he did to me." Colton said with so much animosity towards him.

" okay okay, first Can you stop throwing objects at the wall. If my husband hears this.."

" fine."

Good now we was getting somewhere.

" okay good I have a name, where does Timothy live?"

I then watch Colton try so hard to remember as I could see his face wanted to break apart again.

"Queens New York, hurry his a dangerous man." He informed me.

" I'm sure he wouldn't do anything to me beside I'm only here to help get you the peace that you need so you can crossover, oh and another thing" I said

" what?" He came back.

I walked up a bit more closer so that he could see that I wasn't no longer afraid of him anymore.

" the next time you ever posses my daughter again you would not have to worry about me helping you out. You will spend the rest of your days wandering this earth praying that someone hears your story do i make myself clear"

Looking him dead in his eyes he gave me a devilish smirk before nodding his head.

" hey baby!" Andrew yelled while jogging up the steps.

" in here" I said Turing my head.

As I turn it back I've should have known that Colton would have disappeared.

Now with a name of this man maybe I could finally get him to crossover once and for all.

" grace... what are you doing standing in the middle of the floor In the pantry?... and what's with all the food splatter on the walls?" Andrew asked now with confusion all over his face.

Pushing my hairs behind my ears I turn to my husband as I walked into his arms.

" I had a visitor, but his gone now. As far as this mess goes I'm so sorry I'll clean it up"

Andrew than pulled me tighter into his body as his lips peak my forehead.

" don't worry about it I'll clean it. I just wanted to know if you was safe that's all that matter to me"

Looking up, his blue eyes starting glistening as he stare down on me.

" I'm fine" I smiled " but, I do have to leave tonight and head to New York. The spirit thinks his killer is out there"

Andrew was never a fan of the whole traveling part of my work now as he felt that he wasn't close by to protect me if something were to happen.

He didn't say a word but just bite down on his jaw like he would do whenever he didn't approve of anything I do.

" it's strictly about crossing over this ghost Drew, and he really needs this closure" i told him

He eventually gave me this soft nod as our bonding time got cut short.

" hey boss! the guys are done and we are hungry"

I chuckled as I caressed my fingertips across Drew cheek.

He Lean down to kiss me again before letting me go as his boots stomp away in the distance.

Shoving my hands into my back pocket I just took a deep breath in and back out before joining everyone.

• Queens NY •

This city was so big and busy that it was hard to even walk through anywhere.

Everywhere I turned I was either bumping into someone or they was bumping into me.

At least in California the traffic wasn't so jam packed.

Now there would be days where the traffic could get a little hectic but not as bad as New York.

Not even sure where I needed to start or who I was exactly looking for I just walked around hoping Colton would appear.

With some clothing stores on the same strip that I was on I decided to go shopping.

Entering the doors everyone greeted me while proceeded to do their job.

Giving a warm smile I spoke back as I drifted over towards the toddler clothes.

Gabby could use some more pants as her getting taller was started to have her pants shrinking.

" hello ma'am just let me know if you need anything" one of ladies told me as she was hanging some shirts on the clearance rack.

" okay"

Now with a handful of items slump across my arm, I headed over towards the shoe area when a gust of wind breeze pass my face.

" great you couldn't have picked a more perfect time" I mumbled under my breath.

" his around." Colton said in a fidget state.

Looking around my surroundings I didn't spot a man.

" I don't see anything"

" not in here grace,  over there"

I could feel my attention getting pulled towards the window where a big sign for a boxing match was being held.

" oh, it says that he'll be boxing against chad rivers tonight at  8"

" yeah but that match can't happen. If it does it won't end very well"

Frowning my face, i was now becoming lost.

" wait how will it end badly? It's just a boxing match?"

Colton chuckled before looking back over at me.

" because that man is greedy when it comes to wining. That match is worth 50 thousand dollars. If Chad wins it will probably be his last match for the rest of his life. Hell,  look at what he did to me"

Exhaling out loud I was starting to follow.

" okay I'll go try and see if I can talk to him before the match starts"

" it's no trying you need to do it now!!!" As he yelled out I pulled my shoulders up to my ears as it caused a small screeching sound.

" what the hell was that?"

Turing around the ladies was so confused and I just tried to make it seem that I had no clue either.

" I'm ready now" I said now heading up to the register.

  • Chad vs Timothy
Boxing match •

Throwing my shopping bags Into the car I decided to walked over towards the arena.

I wasn't to far from it and I felt like I wouldn't have had a place to park no way.

The lines were extremely long as everyone had their favorite boxer either on a poster or plaster on the back of their shirts.

I knew waiting in this line wasn't going to work as the guys was inside getting ready.

Thinking of a way to sneak in I began to look around hoping something would shine it's lights on me.

" psst" I heard from the distance

Squinting my eyes towards the dark alley I noticed Colton as he turn around now disappearing onto the dark.

Having hope that he got me a way In I excused myself from the roaring crowd and headed towards the back.

Making sure I was clear I did a sweep one more time before pacing myself to walk a little faster down the alley.

" Colton?...Colton where are you?" I whisper

Without him saying a word the back door to the arena open up slowly.

As I got my nerves together I headed into the door as I was now standing in the hallway.

I jump from the sound of the door closing and I quickly began to walk.

" come on his in here"

I follow Colton down the hall as I looked into a couple of boxers dressing rooms.

They were some big dudes far as height wise.

I knew me being in this type of environment needed to be quick.

We soon stop at a door that had the name Timothy Boyd written on it.

Now ready to do what I do best, I lifted my hand to knocked but the door widened as I was now standing face to face with Timothy.

" uh... can I...help you?" He said with his face scrunched.

" hi, my name is grace myers and I'm... well I'm"

" listen I have a very big match  to get ready for and If your just going to stand here and stumble upon your words than you do that. Excuse me"

He then proceeded to walked on by me as I turn around to watch him.

" wait. I know this may sounds crazy but I'm so use it now,  but I'm really here to ask you about a guy name Colton dimery"

Timothy soon turn around very slowly to me as I watch his hand clench into a ball.

" lady who are you?" He said now headed back towards me.

Not sure what he was capable of I backed up into his dressing room where he then closed the door shut.

I could hear the door locked behind him and I knew I was in trouble.

" please I'm only here to help him"

He started to laugh hysterically before crossing his arms.

" I'm sorry to bust your bubble but Colton is my first cousin, and his been dead for about a couple of weeks now, so unfortunately there's nothing you can do to help him"

" actually there is."

" I'm sorry" he said confused

" see I'm a ghost whisperer and your cousin had came to me desperately wanted my help"

" ahahaha, wait what? Okay look ms myers i really have a match to get to and I can't afford to lose this big opportunity so if you'll excuse me"

" that's just it. You may not be able to do that match instead you will probably be going to jail for the murder of your cousin"

" murder!!" The fuck are you" he said now rushing towards me.

There wasn't anywhere else to go as his body was now hovering over mines.

His masculine hands grip around my neck before I felt my back getting pressured deeper into the table.

" ahh your hurting me" I tried to say as my hands cuffed around his wrist trying to pull him off of me.

" I won't ask you again who sent you and how do you know about my cousin"

" Colton told me where I could find you." I gulp down as I squirm around trying to get loose.

" tell him he still have a good hand when it comes to handling a baseball bat" Colton said now appearing.

" that's impossible his dead" he said through his teeth.

" he told me to tell that you still have a good hand when it comes to handling a baseball bat"

After those words his eyes looked down on me as if he knew that I wouldn't have known about that.

His hands soon unravel itself from my neck as he took a couple of stumbles back towards the wall.

"Ho..how did you know that?" He stutter.

Adjusted myself I remain by the table as I wasn't sure what he would do to me next.

" please all your cousin wants is for you to be honest with him as to why you did it. Tim he needs this. He needs to find peace so that he could crossover and right now he doesn't have that and I've seen it first hand for myself at the damage you done to him"

His eyes started to water before he lifted his hands up.

" I..I didn't mean to hurt him. It was an accident
I swear" he pleaded.

" I don't think that it was. I'm not here to judge I was born with this gift and I made a vow to myself to help any earthbound spirit who can't seek peace by themselves. Usually the ones who stay are the ones who had a brutal and terrible death and haven't made peace with it because of the ones who may have caused them the pain"

He then took a seat now.

" alright but what happens when I explain my side? I know i can't just go back to a normal life."

I shook my head no as I looked over at Colton who was ready for answers.

" okay. Okay I'm ready I've been dealing with this for a while now and I'm finally ready to talk about it."

Taking a seat, I allowed Timothy to collect his thoughts before he began.

" my cousin Colton and I was very close growing up. man he was beast at everything he did. Sports wise he always wanted to be like me you know, just follow in my footsteps."

I nodded as he continue.

" but uh, I was kinda good at baseball but my true passion was to go pro for the ufc and Colton kinda wanted to do the same thing. So instead of me finishing baseball I decided to take a detour and get into what I wanted to do."

" I mean it sounds so prefect you two had strong relationship"

He chuckled while nodding his head " yeah we did I can admit that. He was like a little brother to me even though we was cousin. So we decided to do boxing."

" so what happen that made you take a more sinister turn? I asked

" yeah what happen cousin, because I was under the impression that we was going to go pro together and get rich together?" Colton added.

" Colton also wants to know what happened. He was under the impression that you both was going to go pro and get rich together"

He sat up straight now looking around the room.

" hold up his here, like acutely in this room right now"

" yes, he's standing over by the poster of you and him"

" fuck man" he murmur to himself

" I don't even know to be honest everything just sorta happen so fast it's hard to talk about"

" I'll make it easier for you then , why did you kill me?"

" Colton just wants to know why did you kill him?"

" cousin look I didn't mean to. we had that big altercation about you getting chosen over me for the spot at big leagues. I was hurt, I was jealous, I was anger because here I was practicing, training he'll I taught you everything that I knew the knowledge about boxing. This was my dream career and I watched it get swept from under my feet in a second to you who had no dreams about being a boxer."

I glance at Colton who I knew was feeling all sorts of emotions right now.

" that's selfish man"

" Timothy I agree with Colton that was very selfish act you pulled. What happen after that?"

" on the night when he got that call to go to new York I met up with him. At first it started as decent conversation and I congratulate him on his big offer he received. But that night I was drinking and something I don't know really what it was but something switch inside me. And I ask him if he could drop out."

" and then what?" I said now adjusting myself.

" he said no. That it was a big opportunity for him the money they offer was fucking good, and I wanted that. He knew nothing about boxing and yet the guy I trained got the spotlight and not me of course I was mad. So the argument soon came down to me shuffling him by the shirt trying to explain myself and he keep just saying no. So I got heated an..and then I swung and got him on the lip. Colton took the hit he got back up and we started tussling. With me being drunk he started whooping my ass and before I could catch myself I pulled the bat from underneath my truck and struck him. He stumble but didn't fall, so I hit him again. Now having the upper hand I just kept going until his face wasn't recognize-able"

" my god" I said feeling bad for how everything played out.

" I'm so sorry" he busted out on a cry that I knew he felt bad for his actions.

" fuck what have I done to my cousin. Got how can you forgive me when I ended your life out of pure jealousy" he continue to cry out.

" tell him it's alright. If I knew that boxing meant so much to him then I wouldn't have said no. I thought that it would have been fun being alongside my favorite cousin Doing what we both wanted to do. Tell him I forgive me"

" Timothy Colton wants you to know that he's forgiven you for what you did to him. Have he had known how important boxing was to you he would have step down. All he wanted was to just be with his favorite cousin and box together. Unfortunately you couldn't see it that way"

I could feel that hurt that Timothy was giving off and honestly he should feel that way.

He got so caught up in the money that he didn't realize the hurt he was causing people. And what he would have done to chad if he wasn't stop.

" grace. I feel like i can move on now. In fact I could feel this warmth of love coming from this bright beaming..."

" it's the light Colton. Because of you finding peace you are now able to see the light it's for you" I told him.

He wipes his tears before walking over now standing beside his cousins

" thank you for confessing" he then rested his hand on Timothy shoulder.

A gasp came from his lips as he looked to his right.

" I love you cousin and I'm so sorry"

Moments later Colton walked into the light and everything was back to the reality of Timothy balling his eyes out.

" I'm ready to turn myself in now. I knew you was only here to help and do the right thing so I apologize for putting my hands on you. You didn't deserve that"

" thank you for that, and I couldn't agree more" I stated.

We both stood to our feet as we heading into the opposite direction of the crowds cheering and ranting Timothy name.

Another case solved. I was ready to go back home to my husband and daughter now.

Colton Dimery after finding peace.....
