October 7th 2006.
You might wonder why this day may seem important...well it isn't. But to me it was.
No one else knew what had happened on this day, nor did they bother to find out.
A young woman had died on this day. Let me explain it further to you.
Hi, my name is Nichole and I had gotten hit by a drunk driver. It had happened at 10:05 p.m.
I was walking home from work and no I wasn't walking in the middle of the road...I was walking way off on the sidewalk. It had happened so fast I...*sigh*...I never saw it coming.
I was listening to my favorite band on my CD player, big head phones and everything you know? Well a diesel was driving by and what do you know? The damn driver was drunk. So while he was swerving crazily he went off the side of the road and ran me over and I died. What else do you want me to say?
Yes he did run me over badly. I had been rolled over on geez. My head was fine but dang...broke every bone in my body and the next thing you know I'm just like anything else that had gotten hit.
The driver didn't seem to notice a thing, so he just swerved back on to the road and kept driving....that's what had happened on October 7th 2006. No one had gone looking for me, no one knew I was dead. I was just another kid who had no life and well, one less problem to worry about in the world.
I was only 17 when I died. Pretty young eh? Could have had a future right? Well my time had come and let me tell you again...I wasn't ready for this. I have to admit, even though I wasn't anything big to this world, at least I did something. I was really good at guitar and drums, I could sing okay, and I was an average student. What sucked about my life...I was alone, had no boyfriend, no car and no home or family...wonderful.
Would you like to know what was really sad about the day that I died? Might have told you this already but hey doesn't hurt to say it again right?
No one ever knew about my accident. You can look all over the place and you would never find it. Weird huh? You'd think someone would have discovered my body and said something!
Sorry no...
Let me tell you how I am doing now. A year has gone by and what can I say?
Heaven is great. I am living the life I never had. I may be living up in the sky in the clouds...way up there..maybe higher. But once I had gotten hit by that diesel the pain was gone, and the next thing you know, I was here!
I have a house, no i'm not rich and yes I have a job. I live in house number 1202, it's like any other house, except it's for one person only. I've got a TV, my own bed and what do you know I even have a guitar! What sucks is there is no food, no car and no money.
What kind of job are you doing then Nichole? Well let me tell ya, I have been assigned to a few people and it hasn't worked for me so far. What do you mean you don't understand what I am talking about?
Of course it is easy to understand!
...Okay maybe not.
My job is to go back down as a guardian angel or what I would rather call myself- a ghost, and help out those who are having a hard time in life. Where the heck was my guardian angel when I needed it? I know, messed up huh?
Anyways like I said it is a year later, well a little over a year later it is actually. October 23 2007 and I am finally getting assigned to someone who is close to my age. YES!
Okay, so I haven't been given a folder about what this new guy is going to be like or anything. I am supposed to get it the day I am sent off back to earth...as a ghost. That will be tomorrow, and until then, that's all I've got to say. I'll tell you more about this guy once I get his folder. I promise.

“Dude did you see Emily Thomson? She totally stacked it!” laughed Pierre as he, Maddie, Jeff, David, Sebastien and Chuck walked down the hall of their high school.
“Yeah, and you doing a back flip and falling on your butt went un-noticed,” said Maddie smirking as they reached Pierre’s locker.
“No need to be mean Mads,” said Pierre laughing.
“Yeah look who’s talking,” she said laughing.
Maddie was the only one who would stand up to Pierre if he said something stupid, unlike the guys, who had just given up trying. And for some weird abstract reason, Maddie was the only one Pierre would accept criticism from.
Maddie leant against the lockers and caught sight of Nichole who was taking out textbooks from her locker. Her friends, Danny, Tom, Doug and Harry joined her a few moments later.
"How you been Nick?" asked Tom smiling as he leant on her locker, the other guys standing behind her.
Nichole shrugged, "Missed the bus today, Pierre and the rest of his friends were in the back laughing, and am trying to ignore the fact that they are a few feet away," she said sighing.
"What a idiot! Not even telling the bus driver to stop to pick up a bird," said Danny outraged. Nichole turned around and noticed Danny, Harry and Doug.
“Hey guys, how are you?" Doug smiled, “I'm fine,” he answered.
Harry shrugged a little, "I'm alright eh, been practicing on the drums every day! Can't wait tell the guys in music class so we can practice our songs," Nichole nodded smiling,
She turned to Danny, “And you?" she asked smirking as Danny beamed brightly, "I am good, real good...my sweet bird, can't stop thinking about you, you know?"
Tom raised an eyebrow at Danny, "What the bloody hell is wrong with you mate? You try to get Nick's attention every single day and you know the rules, no one in the group dates each other...besides you already have girls all over ya,"
Nichole smiled as she turned back to her locker, "Well listen here Tomas, I may have a lot of girls following me around, but who says I can't sweet talk to the nicest girl in the school?" said Danny laughing as Tom shook his head and rolled his eyes.
Nichole turned around again and glanced at Maddie and smiled warmly and nodded as Maddie did the same. This was the only acknowledgement of each other’s existence they gave.
In primary school they were best friends, in middle school they were joined at the hip, but when they became seniors, they drifted apart and found different groups to hang around with. The small nod and smile every day in the hallway was how they greeted each other whenever they met.
“Who are you looking at little miss smiles?” asked Pierre turning around to notice Nichole who had turned back to her locker.
“Dude! Look at that bag! It’s huge! It looks like it’s gonna tip her over any moment!” exclaimed Pierre laughing as he watched Nichole. Nichole had a regular sized bag, but it was over packed with books, so it was practically bursting at the seams.
“Pierre man, drop it,” snapped Maddie, “Just leave it alone,”
“Why? I mean look at it! It’s illegally big!” he stated loudly so he was beginning to draw attention to himself, mostly by Nichole’s friends, “Hey! How are you able to walk?” asked Pierre loudly across the hall. Danny turned around and raised an eyebrow, “Do you have a problem Bouvier?”
“No, but if she keeps carrying that bag, in twenty years or so, she’ll have a spinal problem!” exclaimed Pierre smirking.
“Hey man, why don’t you mind your own business?” asked Danny, making his way over to Pierre who stood confidently
“Do you have a problem if I speak my mind?” asked Pierre.
“Gosh Pierre,” sighed Maddie in hopelessness as the rest of Nichole’s friends now made their way over to back Danny up.
“Why don’t you just keep your stupid comments to yourself?” asked Danny angrily.
“I’m just worried about her,” said Pierre smirking, “She’ll bloody kill herself!” he exclaimed laughing.
Nichole sighed and rolled her eyes, and turned around, joining her friends, “Hey Pierre why don’t you just shut your huge mouth and keep it shut? Makes you look a lot smarter,” said Nichole.
“Pierre just leave it,” said Sebastien quietly.
“Why? Seb man, watch, if I just touch her, she’ll tip over-” Pierre began to touch Nichole but Maddie pushed him aside, “You’re such a jerk,” she snapped as she hooked her arm with Nichole’s.
“Anyone coming?” Maddie asked her friends.
They all looked at Pierre who was still watching Maddie, and then Sebastien and Chuck joined her. Maddie smiled and turned back to Pierre, “Once you get a clue, I’ll come talk to you,” she said walking off with Nichole by her side and the guys behind them.
