The dead boy

A breeze against my shoulder and a voice as a turn to see who was there. Nobody was behind me. Huh weird. I see a poster as I pass by a class I only saw the word missing, so I stopped to see what the poster said.

"Missing person, Kyle Hail, Blue eyes, dirty blonde hair, and freckles." I turned to my friends.

"Did you know him?" I asked

"Not really, he was a year younger than us." One of them said. The bell rang as I walked into class.

The bell rang and I went to my locker. I grabbed the rest of my stuff and closed my locker. Then I saw the boy from the poster. I jumped back.

"You can see me?" He asked.

"Uh yeah-"

"This was my old locker." he interrupted me.

"Are you dead?"

"Yep..." he paused.

"How?" I broke his silence.

"A drunk lady hit me with her car and dumped my body in a swamp." the bell interrupted us.

"I have to go."

"Okay."

Lunch

I walked into the cafeteria and grabbed a plate of gross slop. Then I went to sit with my friends, Omar and Amir.

"You know that missing boy right?" I asked.

"Yeah what about him?" Amir said.

"Did you ever think he died?"

"Not until you said it." Omar says "He could be."
