What?
Why did that sound appalling?
“What’s that mean—body jump? And why does that sound incredibly uncomfortable?”
He told him all about Gabby nearly jumping out a window in the tower when she was overcome with the dark entity’s spirit.
“Maybe I should have called it a possession,” he suggested. “That might be a better phrase for it.”
Oh, well, that was worse.
Michael the Archangel might just need help from the real Michael the Archangel at this point.
Thank God Addison had taught every single one of them how to pray on a rosary, and to God. He might just need it at this point.
Who would have seen that coming when he landed here?
“Well, that sucks for me. Why? Because I have to babysit Graham all night,” he admitted. “In a castle that’s in the middle of a battle for good and bad, apparently. I don’t like being caught in the crossfire.”
Yeah, he didn’t either, and that was why Gabby wasNOTin the building at night.
Lesson learned.
This castle was no joke, and it wouldn’t be a family-oriented place until the mystery was solved, and peace could come back to Ravensmire.
IFpeace could come back here, and that was a very bigIFtoo.
Now, Finn felt bad dumping his best friend on the man’s ex. That didn’t seem fair.
So, he tried.
“I can send Gabby home. She’s waiting in the car, and I can stay here,” he said. “If it’s a burden…”
He stopped him.
That’s just it.
It wasn’t a burden.
That was what scared the hell out of him. Graham had been such a huge part of his life that he knew he could easily fall right back into what had been.
If he trusted him.
Unfortunately for Graham, that ship had sailed.
“No, I’ll do it. Go be with your fiancée. I’ll take one for the drunken team,” he admitted.
Besides, he had to go into the lake when the sun came up, and then, he was leaving.
PERIOD.
His ass would be back at that airport so fast, the ghosts’ heads would spin.
Also, what plagued him was what had just happened. Michael was thinking about what Graham had said when he was trying to break free from his grip to fall to the ground below the cliff.
He loved him.
If even an iota of that was true, and their breaking up drove Graham to this point, Michael had to figure this out to see if he could save him.
