that I would rather David think that I was a ghost. He is comfortable with ghosts; I’d probably just scare him, if he knew what I really was.
    I said, "I am just wondering if you had ever uncovered a vampire?"
    "No… no vampires or ghouls, just different kinds of spirits like you." David said.
    I think I better let him know about Carrie, so I said, "David, one thing you should know."
    "Yes"
    I continued on, "Well you know how girls don’t travel alone… I kind have a friend with me. Her name is Carrie; she should pop in soon. She’s one of those kinds of ghosts that only come out at night, and its already sunset."
    "Really," David said with a lot of surprise in his voice. He continued on by saying, "normally ghosts haunt places, and don’t travel. I kind of figured you were a poltergeist that was haunting this bus, two spirits in the same bus. I don’t think I understand you at all. Are you haunting this bus?"
    "No" I said.
    Then I reached over and grabbed the back of his head, and pull his face towards mine. I have never kissed a boy before. My emotions were everywhere, but, in the state that I was in I must take what I want. I am free, tortured and only have revenge to keep me company.
    I want this boy, and I plan on taking him. I stop, inches from our lips touching, and say, "Sorry, I am very impulsive. No more questions about what I am. Just know that I like you, and mean you no harm. I can travel where I choose, and right now I am choosing to travel with you."
    David was quiet for a minute. Then he whispered, "Wow, what a way to change the subject. Just let me know before you disappear, ok?"
    "Ok." I say. I pull my face away from his. I don’t think I am ready for kissing him. Not yet, soon though. I would like to know what it’s like to kiss a boy.
    If anyone listened to the rest of our conversion, they would have thought I started the rumor about blondes. David was explaining a lot of things that I had missed in the last fifteen years.
    He didn’t ask anymore about me; I don’t think he thought I was a ghost anymore. Even if he didn’t believe I was a ghost, he was still willing to hang out with me, and I do think he actually likes me. Of course, night came, and, with night, came Carrie.
    She reappeared right in front of me. Well, actually inside the chair in front of me. Carrie jumped out into the aisle. The lady she reappeared inside of started to complain to her friend that there was cold air all around her.
    Carrie looked at me and said, "Great, a bus." Then she looked around and said, "A full bus, I guess I am standing all night watching everyone sleep. At least I have some new faces to look at. Melabeth, I see you got lucky. That boy you are sitting with is hot."
    David chuckled and then said, "thank you."
    Carrie got all excited and started to jump up and down, saying over and over again, "he can hear me, he can hear me." She then floated through the air and landed right between me and David. Of course she could pass through objects, well except for me.
    "Stop pushing Carrie," I complained.
    Carrie started to say, "Sorry, touchy v…"
    "Shhh… don’t say that. It's just Melabeth, Carrie." I said venomously.
    The next few hours went better than I had imagined. Carrie, I and David got along great. We laughed and talked into the early hours of the morning. Then, after a few yawns, David curled up against the window and fell asleep.
    I figured I better get something to eat while David was sleeping. I don’t believe he thinks that I am a vampire. So I explained to Carrie that I did not want David to know what I was. She thought I could trust the boy, but I don’t even trust her.
    Most everyone on the bus was asleep, so I snuck down the aisle of the bus on all fours. I moved like a cat; it was no problem to hold my weight on the tips of my toes. I went to the back of the bus and got lucky. All the people in the back rows were sound asleep.
    There was a big man snoring, with his arm dangling over the
