Your Love In My Veins
Forgive and Move On
Crystal (Crys)
What now? 🙄
Mariah (Best Friend)
C'mon! are you still upset with me?
Crystal (Crys)
Duh! What do you think?
Mariah (Best Friend)
Offo! Sam loves you Crys and he said he wanted to have some time alone with you
Mariah (Best Friend)
I only cancelled my movie plan so that you both could enjoy together
Crystal (Crys)
Mariah! I have told you am not so sure about him.
Crystal (Crys)
I mean yes I am dating him
Mariah (Best Friend)
But? He is the sexiest guy in our year
Crystal (Crys)
so what? he does seem so fake sometimes
Crystal (Crys)
Never again go behind me like that. You are my bff and not his
Mariah (Best Friend)
Okay Okay
Mariah (Best Friend)
Done. Never again. I promise
Mariah (Best Friend)
C'mon smile now 🙂
Mariah (Best Friend)
Anyway listen. Are you in for the cemetery plan?
Crystal (Crys)
Oh God! are you guys serious?
Mariah (Best Friend)
Yeahh
Mariah (Best Friend)
It will be so much fun
Crystal (Crys)
Who all are coming?
Mariah (Best Friend)
Well there's Sam and Marcus. Jenny, Chris, Fatso, Monica and now you and I
Crystal (Crys)
lol that's for now
Crystal (Crys)
let's see how many actually turn up
Mariah (Best Friend)
Omg I agree! Especially I have big doubts about Fatso and Monica
Crystal (Crys)
Yeahh! Fatso might have agreed when Marcus gave the dare but ever since that lady at the museum told us all the story about there being a spirit in the cemetery, I have seen Monica and Fatso being awfully scared
Hii everyone! This is my first attempt at something like this.

The Cemetery Plan
It's a breezy spring morning but the small group of high school friends don't pay much heed to the weather. They are all excited to be breaking a big school rule that day: entering the school cemetary.
Sam and Marcus act nonchalant. Mariah and Crystal are nervous and hoping that they don't get caught but at the same time, they are thrilled for this rare adventurous moment in their small town lives. Chris is a regular rule breaker and he is the most daring of the lot; he was super charged and he was actually the one who gave Marcus this idea, Joshua (called Fatso by his close buddies) and Monica though were a couple who believed in the local lore about the cemetery being haunted and were actually scared
As Crys had expected, Jenny backed off. But other than her everyone else gathers at the church gate as they had planned
Crystal looked around at their little group and let out a sigh
Crystal (Crys)
Woah! I hadn't expected even this number
Sam pulled Crystal close and whispered in her ear
Sam (Boyfriend)
what say we ditch these kids and hang out alone?
Crystal looked around as she felt a bit uncomfortable
Crystal (Crys)
Uhh no Sam. Let's all hang out together
Mariah came to her friend's rescue (she also had to make up for her recent fiasco)
Mariah (Best Friend)
Uhh Sam! Dude there won't be any fun with even lesser people.
Mariah (Best Friend)
And if you back off that means you are scared 🤨
Mariah was quite short but her confidence made her quite intimidating
Marcus came forward, always the first one to lose his cool
Marcus
Oi Mariah! We aren't scared of anything
Marcus
I don't believe that old museum Hag
Crystal (Crys)
Oh c'mon! you don't need to abuse her
Crystal (Crys)
Let's all go inside if we want to disappear without anyone noticing
Monica
Guys shall we just leave this and go to our classes
Monica
What if we get caught?
Marcus
No! nobody ditches now or you lose the bet
Fatso
Babe, let's just go. I don't have the money to pay if we lose the bet
Marcus smirked and all of them quietly entered the church where they planned to stay till the school started. From there they will sneak out through another church door into the cemetery
The Mysterious Murders
Once the friends are sure that the whole lot of students has gone to their classes, they go off for their planned adventure.
But the air itself is different in the cemetery. There's a sudden chill in the air. Crystal and Mariah walk close together and Monica also holds onto Fatso tighter.
Mariah (Best Friend)
Ummm this is weird
Monica
Yeahh right? I told you guys this is a bad idea
Even the sky seemed darker from within the cemetery though it was only 10 in the morning.
Crystal (Crys)
Fatso, let's just pass 1 hour here and we'll go.
Marcus snickered pointedly at Fatso
Fatso
Looking at you, you won't last 10 minutes here Fatso
Crystal (Crys)
Heyy listen Marcus
Crystal (Crys)
He is our childhood buddy, except me and Mariah, no one else is allowed to call him Fatso
Sam (Boyfriend)
Yo babe, chill
Sam (Boyfriend)
Yes, Marcus, let's be polite
Sam (Boyfriend)
But, Crys baby, you can't deny Fatso suits him more
Sam and Marcus laughed loudly
Crystal felt really annoyed
But before she could say anything, a school of bats whooshed past noisily
Sam (Boyfriend)
Oh they were just bats
Marcus
Wow Fatso, your girl has brains at least she is not pretending to not be scared like you
Sam (Boyfriend)
So do you guys really believe all the local tales about spirits being here?
Mariah (Best Friend)
Yeahh I think they are true
Mariah (Best Friend)
My granny says a really evil spirit killed someone in her days
All of them had now settled in a corner, a few feet away from where the graves started
Mariah (Best Friend)
Right here in this cemetery
Fatso
But that must have been night
Fatso looked around nervously
Crystal (Crys)
Oh c'mon. I don't believe all this
Crystal (Crys)
Must be all made up
Mariah (Best Friend)
Ahem ahem
Mariah (Best Friend)
I have something to show you guys
Mariah groped in her bag and took out a worn out looking newspaper cutout
Mariah (Best Friend)
I did some research of my own
Mariah had always been fascinated by the paranormal
She took the paper from her and started reading aloud to the group.
Crystal (Crys)
Man, 22 murdered mysteriously at Local High School.
Everyone was listening intently now. Even Marcus had let go of that smirk of his.
Crystal (Crys)
The body of a labourer, Jeffrey, 22 years of age found at the cemetery on the grounds of Gibson High School on Friday morning. Investigation revealed that the man was already being searched for by the police due to a harassment allegation.
Sam (Boyfriend)
What is the date?
Crystal (Crys)
It says November 5, 1968
Sam (Boyfriend)
Wow Mariah! am impressed
Sam (Boyfriend)
where did you even find this?
Mariah (Best Friend)
My granny is fond of scrapbooking and cataloging some important events since her young days
Mariah (Best Friend)
I borrowed from her.
Mariah (Best Friend)
So now you guys believe that this place could actually be haunted?
Marcus
It only talks about a murder
Mariah (Best Friend)
This is not the only murder
Mariah (Best Friend)
There have been 4-5 such unexplained murders in our town in the last 40-50 years
Just then they heard a rustle of the leaves from the bushes behind them
Startled, all of them looked behind. But there was no one.
Marcus
How much time is left to an hour Sam?
Marcus
Fatso, Crystal and Mariah all erupted in laughter as they realised Marcus was only trying to hide his fear
