Like all the other guests in the mansion, Melissa was being haunted by a ghost. Unfortunately, for her, the ghost was the young man she used to love so very much: Nick Armstrong. He followed her everywhere and in the was impossible for her to escape his presence no matter how she tried and Melissa tried everything. She put on music, she hummed, she put water on just not to hear his voice whispering in her ear, telling her she should come join him. The witch was frightened by the proposal, but also somewhat tempted too. It would be a lie to say she didn't miss Nick or that she hadn't felt a gap in her heart since his demise months ago, but could she really end it all? Kill herself to be with him?
Today was like every day before. Nick followed her everywhere, his voice in her ear, whispering and begging her to stop, to listen and speak, but she couldn't. If she stopped, she would be convinced. If she stopped, she would fall under his spell and might just listen. Instead, she took refuge on the deck of the indoor pool, watching the unmoving, placid water within the depths. The witch was standing on the edge, looking into pool, the chlorine thick in the air around her, and it was so humid she felt like she was suffocating. It was in the water that she allowed herself to see him. His reflection standing beside her. "I'm sorry, Nick", she said quietly. "I can't do it. I can't leave them here. I'm so sorry."
Suddenly, she was falling, head first into the pool, body immersed beneath the cold water. Arms waving about, she managed to break the surface, but only once before she was pushed back down. The brunette tried again, but failed and panic gripped her. Without the others, she couldn't even use magic, could she? Water infiltrated her lungs, filling them up, and after a moment she started to sink.
