Jamie Marks Is Dead Page #2

Lucy made the chili, Adam.

Did you know Adam was born prematurely?

With underdeveloped lungs

and a murmur in his heart?

- Really?

- Yeah.

Oh, that's so scary.

My parents are gone until 10 tonight.

I mean, if you wanna come over.

I never had to worry

about him doing things

that he wasn't supposed to.

He was a... a scout,

and always on a project.

I'll tell you this much.

Some sick pervert murdered my boy,

and God's vengeance

needs to be carried out,

so Jamie won't have died in Va...

What a load of crap.

So what if they find

out what happened to him?

I mean, it's not gonna

make things meaningful.

What do you mean?

He's still dead.

Big f***ing deal.

It won't change his story.

Sorry.

You don't have to be sorry.

Can we please not talk about him?

I think that he should've been loved.

Though...

He never got that.

Not like how everyone deserves.

What are you looking at?

Nothing.

Look, do you want another drink?

Uh, yeah, sure.

Hey.

Come here.

Adam.

Don't.

Gracie.

Look, just pretend

like you don't see him.

But I do see him.

What does he want?

How the f*** should I know?

Can... come on, can we

please just drop this?

Look, I did not choose

for him to be here.

I found him, but not

because I wanted to.

You're acting like I asked for this.

Look, I'm sorry, I was just...

Adam, I don't want a dead boy

lurking around outside

of my house, okay?

Okay?

And...

Trust me.

Neither do you.

What are you waiting for?

You're not real.

Don't be frightened.

I don't wanna hurt you.

I'm not frightened.

You can call me Mooney.

Everybody does.

I never liked that name.

Me neither.

I won't call you that then.

Thank you, Adam.

I never thought anybody

would be able to see me.

I see you.

Gracie can too, I think.

She's just scared.

Don't be shy.

I know you wanna try it.

Try what?

Take off your clothes first.

Go ahead.

Get in.

Close your eyes.

Can you help me, Adam?

Yes.

I knew it.

I knew it would be you.

What the f***?

Isn't that...

Why are you naked?

Get the f*** outta there!

Put your f***ing pants

on, for Christ's sake.

They both knocked,

but they can't come in.

Oh, my God.

Adam?

Adam, honey, are you okay?

Why are you naked?

What happened?

Hello?

Hi.

What are you doing in there?

Why are you all wet?

I'm sorry.

Don't be sorry.

Where are your clothes?

I don't have any.

Here.

Are you sure?

I'm sure.

- Really?

- Yes, really, put on...

Thank you.

Wow.

Your room's nice.

What happened?

I mean, really.

Dead?

Right?

Don't worry about me.

Who did it?

Don't ask me that,

please don't ask me that.

Why not?

Right?

I can help you.

Help them track down whoever did...
