A ghostly voyuer

[Silver_Wyvern]

Wyn wasnt sure what to say she had never really thought of herself as beautiful....pretty maybe but.. thank you.. and you may.. she said blushing as she waited feeling a bit foolish as she held her hand out for the ghost to take.

watching as he set the book down and then felt the bed shift as he sat next to her she shifted her weight so that she would be looking at him if he were visable. i guess i cant blame you for scaring them off then... and i am glad you dont want me to leave... i really like it here..

She felt a chill as a soft but strong hand took it gently. The sound of shifting again was heard as the bed creaked. She felt a soft pair of lips touch the top. "I do hope I am not making you cold.." As he heard her response to why he scared others away "..I am glad you like it here..is there anything else I can do to make your stay more enjoyable? You do look very lonesome here.." He spoke, though he was very attracted to this woman, he was raised in a time were there was a process to properly court a lady

His hand when he took hers was strong and firm .. and cool to the touch as was his lips when they touched the skin on top of the hand he held.. The air in the room was still just as cool but not enough that she needed more clothing or anything.. sort of like someone had turned on an AC...the air going from 75 down to about 69.. a little cool yes.. but not uncomfortably..

Again Wyn wasnt sure what to say at first or how much.. but she supposed if she were going to live with this ghost he would find out everything about her eventually.. I dated someone in collage but things didnt work out.... we were both busy with our goals, and studies .. I wanted to wait until marrage he didnt.. that sort of thing.. it didnt end well..

so i suppose.. yes i am a little lonely, but i am here to start a new life and now if you dont mind sharing your evenings with me.. i could at least talk to you. I start work in 3 weeks so that will give us plenty of time or rather me time to get a bit more comfortable around you. she said looking at the clock it was 11:30 and she would need to get some sleep soon so she could stay awake tomorrow and visit with him more..

He smiled softly, though she could not see it "Good..I don't want you to be uncomfortble.." he spoke as his eyes caught her aroused nipples through her nightgown before looking back into her eyes. As he heard the story about her last man he gave a scoff "how barbaric..the world has changed so much since I have been alive..a proper gentleman should wait for his lady.." He then gave a nod "I would love to ..I'll be here to watch over and protect you, though the plantation is very safe and the locals though afraid of me, are freindly. Do recall a group of little boys poking around here searching for the big scary ghost..I left them alone regardless of traspassing." he let out a little chuckle remebering the scare he gave the bully of the group. "Oh of course..I don't want to keep you..goodnight..we shall talk tommrow..goodnight and sweet dreams" with that he stood and began to revert back to his normal form, floating into the shadows. He leaving the room was announced when the southern summer night heat returned.

Wyn found it hard to sleep after he left both excited and feeling odd at the encounter with Richard she finnaly did find sleep however and slept in until 7 rather than 6 as was her habbit. She streatched and smiled for a moment wondering if she had dreamed last night.. until she noticed her book was not in the same place as before.

She got up and gathered some clean clothing for the day and went to take her shower.. she blushed half way threw while in the process of shampooing her hair wondering if Richard was watching.. rinsing off she got out and dressed.

Again blue jeans and a tank top.. this one blue in color she left her hair down today letting it settle around her sholders. she put on her socks shoes and glass's then headed down stairs to make coffee and a bagle toasted with honey nut cream cheese for breakfast..

He floated back to rest in the attic as he did. But when it became morning he floated to watch her get up and get ready for her day. She was so beautful, he could not get enough of watching her. But as she went to the shower, he did not follow, he would not look upon her naked for untill he, as he said properly courted her. As she settled down in the kitchen, she saw a floating newspaper as if a invisible man was reading it "You began to get your newspaper..curious..a lot different formant then I remember..as well as alot of strange articles that pertain to nothing..how did you sleep last night miss Wyn? I do hope well."

 

[LittleSprite2]

Wyn had just finished her bagle and was sipping on her coffee when Richard.. entered she sat her cup down and watched the news paper float to the table and seemingly lay itself down occasionlly flipping the page as tho he were reading it..

his comments about it let her know that he truly was reading it.. a ghost who liked daily news who new.. she couldnt help grinning over the thought..

yes i slept reasonably well.. considering.. i almost thought i had dreamed the whole thing until i noticed the book was in a different place on the night stand then where i ushually keep it..

to be honest i am suprised i am not running screaming from the house, are your sure i am sane ?? but you draw my interest and curiosity.. Wyn asked only half teasing before taking another drink from her cup.

she asked another question after a few moments unable to help her self, because she simply wanted to know as much about him as she could .. Would it be rude of me to ask what you look like ? i didnt see any pictures of you on the computer only the story and your name..

"I am glad..did not want to make you uncomfy with my cold presance. I think you are...glad your treating me more like a real person then a monster.." He responded, breifly pausing in thought as he read, taking a moment to look at her from time to time. He then paused as he heard her question "....The reason..why you don't see me is that my natural form..would scare you away. Give me a moment. the newspaper folded as he began to float away "I will be right back. Within a moment he came back with a old miltary sack, it floating towards you as it opened pulling out a very old picture. It was a young man in union uniform, clean shaven. He was on the tall and thin side. His rifle resting in hand. "This is my recruit photo for the local newspaper from my hometown in Pennsylvania..about the time I died, my hair grew out a bit and was growing a short beard." He responded. He kept the sack nearby it. Within it was a diary as well as a small sketchbook, along with some other little personal trinkets.

 

[LittleSprite2]

Wyn took the photo and looked at it, not going threw the nap sack as it was his and she wouldnt invade his pravacey unless invited to do so. your very handsome... no more than 21 or 22 ?? she guessed

from the picutre she would also guess he was around 5 ft 9 or 6ft because he stood a good head or more above the others in his unit..lean and well built.. an athlete before joining the army maybe.. she almost asked if he fought for the north or south.. but decided against it.. the picture was too faded with age to tell..

would you mind if i got a frame and hung your picture up on the wall in the living room... your such a part of this place.. it seems fitting.. she asked hoping he wouldnt mind.

The sound of his boots hitting the ground was heard as the napsac floated down to the table "The other items in my napsac you may look at" Richards spoke as the sound of his boots hitting the ground was heard. The chair moved as it creaked, he sitting down. The newspaper began to float up and open, the pages turned to where he was. "..and.." he paused for a moment "If you would want to, I will allow you..I have been bound to this humble plantation for over 200 years."

 

[LittleSprite2]

Wyn was nodding her head yes as she answered yes i would like that.. are you sure you dont mind my looking threw your things ? she asked wanting to be sure it was alright.. sometimes things got put away that others forgot about until they were uncovered once more.

"Yes. It is alright Wyn. I've looked into it for over 200 years..might as well share my story with someone else." the invisible man responded, turning the page of the newspaper. "First one who was interested..most anyone else attempted to exorcise me from this place..I kept those hidden so I was not removed from this old mason. I being bound to it, it began to grow on me."

 

[LittleSprite2]

Wyn laughed a little as she responded teasingly trying to lighten the mood some more.. well i cant imagine why this place would grow on anyone i fell in love with it at first sight.. she said grinning as she set her coffee cup aside and began to open the sack going threw it..

she flipped threw the sketch book finding different drawings of people there were sevral of one girl in particular and she wondered if that had been the girl he had gotten killed over. if the drawing were accurate then this southern bell had been extreamly beautiful.. and she didnt blame him for falling in love..

was she as kind as she was beautiful ? she asked with out thinking.. looking up she quickly said I am sorry you dont have to answer that.. i was thinking out loud.. i do that alot i talk to myself .. its a habbit..

"Yeah..it is a finely built place. I guess your right." he responded. He was about to respond with a different, more snide remark, but that would have hurt her feelings. As she flipped through the drawings of the girl..there were some more..provocative pictures, one of them being of the woman fully nude lying on her side in a artistic pose. He would have blushed if he could after she saw that one before he spoke "Yeah..she was. Sweetest girl you'd ever meet. Did honestly love me, but it was a bit hard when I watched her move on to marry another man..but I am glad for her..I'd rather that she did that then not suffer..the first few weeks were torture to watch her being so depressed, almost suicidal. But she eventually met another man, boy from London. Moved back with him to England where she spent the rest of her life before I saw her body brought back here to be buried."

 

[LittleSprite2]

i am sorry.. she said not knowing what else to say... reaching out to touch his hand with out thinking before remembering she couldnt see him, and pulling it back.. picking up her coffee cup insted..

when they talked and when she had an object like the news paper to judge about where he was she could almost see him sitting there and imagine where his hand or face might be..

setting her cup back down she put the sketch book away and carried the nap sack to another room to stash it so no one else would walk off with it or be tempted to go threw it.

coming back into the kitchen she rinsed her coffee cup out in the sink and asked.. so do you play chess ?

"you don't need to appolgize. Again I am just glad that she was able to move on." he spoke as he watched her walk away with the sack and then return to wash her cup. After she was asked he nodded "I know how to play. I think i'd be rusty after a so long, but if you have the board, I can try."

 

[LittleSprite2]

Wyn smiled and turned to face the genral direaction she heard his voice, her hip leaning against the kitchen sink.. good i am not a very good player still learning actually but not too bad.. which should make us about even..

She went into the living room and pulled the game down from where she had put it on one of the shelves and began setting it up on the coffee table between one couch and a recliner.. she opted for sitting on the floor tho so she could be closer to the board letting Richard take the couch if he wanted it. you move first..

He followed her to the living room, the sound of his boots creeking on the ground as he followed. as she she set up the board, he watched her. Again within his mind she looked like his lover from long past setting up for him to draw her. As she offered the couch, it's creaked as he sat down shows that he was still within the room. After a few moments of silence, a pawn lifted up and moved foward two spaces."Your turn."

 

[LittleSprite2]

Wyn smiled happy and enjoying the game of chess as she moved one of her knights the one on the right hand side up two paces and over one to the left. The game continued on until he won beating her by 2 or 3 moves.. that was a good game thank you for playing.. is there anything you would like to do ? watch tv or listen to some music.. i dont know what your current on or what your like or dislike.

Richards was almost surprised he was able to pull of that old rush tatic. "seems I still have got it.." he listened to her as she listed of the things he would possible like to do "I..vaguely know what a T.V. is..and I don't get it. I am a fan of classical..but I do not see a piano or other instruments to play it. My favorite thing to do was to draw..as you saw how many pages I have used in my sketch book."

 

[LittleSprite2]

Wyn smiled.. ok well i have a stario, and i'll set it to the classical station for you, and show you how to work the radio so that if you want to try listining to something more modern like country or rock you can. T.V is more or less just like having a theater in your own home is all, and i think your a wonderful artist..

She put the game and the peaces away then went over to what looked like a small book shelf but had alot of knobs and buttons on the front. The sides opened up into speakers and there was a shelf with cassett tapes and CD's under all the buttons and the units to play the CD's or the Cassetts.. which were an assortment of 80's rock, some country, and even classical.. hidden away tho were a few tapes from child hood she hoped to one day pass down to her own kids.. such as alvin and the chip monks and some book cassetts like bambi,, peter pan and other disney volumes.. as well as some christmas CD's.

She showed him how everything worked and set the radio to classical music.. writting down what station it was for him so that if he changed it later he could always turn it back. As for herself it really just depended on the mood she was in on what she listened too... and at the moment classical was fine it was relaxing.. i hope i explained things to you alright i am not the best sorce of information at times..

"So..like a play through that strange box device. I see." he responded, making a huge presumtion, but not too far from the thruth. He watched her silently shift through her various cds and cassettes, he plucking up a nearby book, it being a peace of short stories. It floated before him as he took in the classical, if she could see him, a finger waved as if he was conducting as he spoke "You've done well..I thank you for your help. Just forgive me if it seems to be a change for me. I feel sometimes I have been pulled from my proper time perioud and have not been given time to fully adjust...oh and thank you. I wish I could have gone someplace with my drawing..but then the war happened, I brought on to be a sketcher and photographer..but was eventually pulled into the conflict rifle in hand."

 

[LittleSprite2]

Hearing he had been a photographer along with a sketch artist wasnt suprising he had a good eye, and she wondered if any of the familys living there had ever taken pictures and shown him the newer camra's over the years..

do you know that pictures come out in color now ? I can take some with my camra and print them off on my computer.. alot has changed sence your time.. if you ever want to know about something just ask and if i cant explain it i'll show you how to work the computer and introduce you to the internet.. she said grinning as she immagined the invisable ghost sitting at the computer surfing the web.

She closed her eyes and enjoyed listining to the music.. she had always wanted to learn how to waltz and other such dances but with her schooling had never really found the time.. always she kept thinking one day she would, but sadly she had two left feet or at least she thought she did.

I'll be right back.. she said first she went to the restroom.. and then on her way back remembering where she had stored some empty frames after having put up the ones she wanted of her mom, dad and older brother up .. went searching threw the box to find one to fit the picture of Richard in..

it took a few muinets but she found one and smiled it was a wood frame and matched the others she had hanging in the living room.. this should fit.. she said and went into the kitchen to pick up the photograph of him she had left laying there..

putting it into the frame she walked back into the living room. i found a frame i hope you like it.. where would you like it hung ? above the fire place ?? she asked

 

[Silver_Wyvern]

Such a think was confusing to him "..with all due respect Wyn..I'd like to approch this one day at a time. I do appercate you helping me.." he responded, he hoping he did not upset her as he watched her with the picture frame "It looks very nice..above the fireplace is a good idea." He spoke as he was breifly silent before asking her "What is it that you did before you came to buy this place? What sort of job do you do?"

 

[LittleSprite2]

i understand.. things that seem normal and everyday to me are.. new and confusing to you.. i'll try to go slower.. she said not in the least offended.. as she found something to stand on along with a hammer and nail to hang the picture above the fireplace.

well before this i was in school but the job i studied for and am starting is accounting.. one of the buisness's down town the law firm actually which is just a small local one has haired me to do there accounting.. if i do well there then i might go to a larger firm or if i like it where i am i can stay there..

she stepped down off of the stool she had been using to stand on and stepped back to look at the picture in its frame on the wall above the fire place.. I like it .. she said smiling what do you think ?
