Eight
By the end of the day Jules was waiting out the front of the school as he waited for his son, whom soon arrived
"Hey dad" Scourge greeted as his d farther smiled
"Made any friends?" Jules asked as Scourge climbed into the car and he started the engine
"Uhh yeah I guess" he didn't know if he had friends or not to be honest, yeah he's spoken to a few people, but the main two he actually talks to are dead people
"You hungry?" Jules asked
"Meh I guess, why?" Scourge rose a brow at his father
"I was thinking why don't we stop by a cafe on the way home? Considering you haven't punched anyone yet" His father joked as Scourge rolled his eyes
"That guy was annoying and he pissed me off on the second day of a new school, what did you expect me to do? Especially since I had left a lot of friends behind that time" Scourge scoffed as he then heard his father sigh, and he suddenly felt guilty since his father was only making the mood brighter "err sorry, I didn't mean to dampen the mood"
"It's fine, I anticipated a reply similar to that anyways" Jules stated as he began driving and Scourge was left to his thoughts
"I still wonder how they died, but what Fleetway said this morning....I have to either gain their trust or find out on my own? Why do I even want to find out?" Scourge thought "maybe I should do some research on ghosts....that makes me sound like a friken weirdo"
After about ten minutes the car stopped and he looked out the window to find the cafe he had seen yesterday, the two birds sitting out the front smiling and laughing as they weren't being interrupted by anyone, for a moment it seemed like they were still alive
"Are you coming?" Jules rose a brow at Scourge, whom was snapped out of his thoughts
"Oh uhh yeah I'm coming" Scourge said as he opened his door and stepped out of his father's car
"Great, why can't we stop getting interrupted so we can have at least some peace!" The green bird, Jet exclaimed in annoyance
"Maybe because they can't see us" the purple bird, Wave scoffed
"Why don't you take a seat, I'll go order some food alright?" Jules suggested
"Oh uhh sure Dad" Scourge said as he nodded to Jules, who then walked inside the cafe, leaving Scourge alone with the two spirits, of whom were arguing at this very moment, he hesitated to say something to them, but decided it would be best if he did "umm hello?" Scourge said awkwardly
The birds paused unsure if he was talking to someone else
"Who's he talking to?" Jet rose a brow
"The two of you" Scourge answered as he rose a brow at them "your the only two in the entire street, even if you are ghosts or something"
"Oh my god" the swallow exclaimed in surprise, "you can see us?!"
"Uhh yeah?" The hedgehog muttered as he looked at the two of them
"How is that possible??" Jet muttered
"I don't know...I saw you both yesterday actually..." Scourge admitted, the two blinked at him, both in shock and surprise
"How? We're dead, we have been for 16 years now" Jet muttered
"I don't know, I started seeing ghosts yesterday" Scourge shrugged
"Then how are you so calm
About this kid?" Wave hummed
"I threw up twice yesterday because of what's going on...I just feel a lot calmer now" Scourge replied as he noticed the stiffness of the air around him loosen, it confused him
"Oh" Wave stated, Jules suddenly came out carrying two drinks and a bag filled with the mouth watering scent
"Why aren't you sitting down?" Jules rose a brow at his son
"Oh uhh" Scourge felt slight panic as he tried to think of something "I kinda wanna go home, I'm uhh tired from school and just wanna lay in my bed" he told his white lie to his father
"Oh, sure I guess, we better get going now then, shouldn't we?" Jules shrugged as he started for the car, Scourge let out a sigh of relief as he followed shortly after looking back at the two ghost lovers, and they looked back at him
Before he turned and got on the car, but something was eating at the back of his head, what was their unfinished business? Not just the ghosts at the cafe, but the ghosts at school, Sonic who was haunting his house and the ghost in the alley, what hadn't they finished when they were alive?
