Chloe rubbed at her wrist absently once she was free, taking a step back as she pressed her lips together in a thin line. Why did she say that? She could have just pretended that they were there for another reason, but even just thinking about that made her feel disgusting. Why did she feel this need to appear normal? There was nothing normal about her life.

"It's not like I meant to do it!" The words just tumbled out of her mouth. "I didn't even know I could do that then. I wasn't even sure if ghosts were real at this point." It was a lot more than she intended to say, but there they were. "Those dead things are angry. You would be too if suddenly you were shoved back into your rotting corpse."

She didn't know what else to say, but she was sure that her ranting sounded like the words of a crazy person. Fitting, actually, considering where they were.
