Ghostly Encounters Of The Human Kind {Cameron}

Saturday 30th January, 2010


It had been over two months since Rosie had heard the news of Cameron’s death. It had hit her hard, because he was the only sibling she had left and on top of that she and Ira had split up. Rosie put it down to the fact she had been feeling broody due to almost losing her own life over a year ago, it was something she didn’t want to relive anytime too soon. It was only Rosie and her father left and she didn’t even see him as much as she would like. Finally feeling like she had been grieving for long enough she decided it was time she tried to get her life back on track and that’s what she was going to do today. The first thing she was going to do was get her hair trimmed and then go out and buy some clothes, a girl’s best therapy, retail style. Rosie had managed to get a job as a librarian, it wasn’t the kind of job she thought she would get, but it paid well enough and she liked being around books and it was a good way to meet new people.

Like all public places the library was opened on a Saturday and Sunday because not many people were able to go to the library during the week due to working, however it was Rosie’s weekend off which she had been looking forward to. She had already been to a couple of stores and was walking out of another with a couple of bags when she dropped her handbag which contained her purse. She immediately bent down to pick it up, and as she stood back up again she bumped into someone. “Oh god, I’m sorry, I wasn’t watching where I was going.” She then looked up and when she saw who she had bumped into all she could do was stare at him in disbelief and she dropped the bags she had been holding. It couldn’t be him, he was dead, she pinched herself, no, she wasn’t in a dream and she wasn’t dying so she wasn’t having an outer body experience either, so what the hell was going on.

The only thought she could think of was that the serial killer Sylar had gotten to Cameron before he died and shift shaped into him, so she immediately began to back away with a look of horror and shock on her face.

It had been a long time, since news of his death shocked the world. The weird thing was that he wasn’t dead. How was he going to explain to his sister that he wasn’t dead? He had to but the news that shocked him next was a bit crazy. It was as if it were a nightmare or a bad dream. However, it was neither Cameron Osborne was alive and doing well. Not to mention finding that he was the child of a damn mythological god. That was the shocking news and the funny thing after confronting his father well, the man he thought that was his father told him that he always knew.

Now the next thing was to explain to Rosie. Like she would believe him; however, it was worth a try. He bumped into her at random. However, she started to back away she was in horror and shock on her face. Yeah that was going to happen. He placed his hands in his pocket. “It’s really me sis” he finally said as he frowned at her. It was the frown that a serial killer would never know. He needed to explain. “I’ll explain over a cup of coffee” he finally managed to say as he stared at his sister hoping that she would believe him.

It would be rather shocking to see a familiar face on face that was dead. However, Cameron wasn’t dead and he wanted to explain it to his sister. Though he didn’t want to do it in the middle of the street. He wanted to do it over a cup of coffee. She wouldn’t believe what he had been up to, but hey it was worth a try.

Rosie couldn’t believe that her brother was standing there in the flesh, it couldn’t be right. Rosie just kept shaking her head as she backed away from him. He had died, they had announced it and yet there he was. Rosie didn’t believe in ghosts, so he couldn’t be a ghost. Then she watched as he put his hands in his pockets and declared that it really was him, calling her sis and then he frowned. That frown that she knew so well. She put her finger up to her mouth and nervously bit down it for a few seconds and then thinking that it really was Cameron she moved closer to him again. Only Cameron would frown like that.

Finding out that Cameron was alive would usually have prompted Rosie to throw her arms around him in a hug, but for some reason she didn’t feel like doing that. Whether it was because she didn’t think it was the right time or because she had just changed since she and Ira split up she couldn’t be sure. Cameron then added that he would explain over a cup of coffee. She nodded her head slowly, “Okay then. You have a lot of explaining to do because right now I’m not even sure how it’s possible that you are here.”

Rosie picked up her bags and beckoned with her head for Cameron to follow her as she made her way toward a local coffee shop she always went into when she was in need of a coffee break during her shopping trips. She reached the coffee shop in a matter of minutes and soon enough she was pulling the door open. It was table service so Rosie headed toward one of the tables at the back where it was quieter. She felt they would need their privacy. Once she was sitting down and Cameron had taken a seat, she placed her bags on the free chair beside her. “So, what’s the story then because I’m intrigued Cameron.”
