"Woah"

My eyes shot open as I heard a voice speak up by the door. I was quick to look over, eyes widening at the smiling ghost leaning against the door frame. "Wha-" I stumbled back a little in shock, only for him to widen his eyes and quickly push himself off the wall "hey watch-" I suddenly tripped on a wire, sending me back towards the ground. The dark brown haired basis cringed in reaction to my fall. Luckily, my guitar was in my hands and not on my back.

"-out.."

He finished his sentence as I sat up, huffing in annoyance. Reggie quickly made his way over to me, sticking out his hand he asked "Need a hand?" I looked at his hand out in front of me, before looking back up at his smiling face. "Come on. I don't bite. Unless you want me to." He winked down at me, causing my breath to get caught in my throat from both his words and actions. Feeling heat slowly make its way to my cheeks, I dragged my eyes away from his green ones, finding the ground to be more interesting.

I brought my hand up, only for him to grab it firmly and pull me up, causing me to gasp a bit in surprise as I fell into his chest. The only space between us being filled in by the rhythm guitar hanging from the strap around me. I was quick to step away, clearing my throat in the process. "You have got to stop doing that." I took my guitar strap off and placed it on the stand.

"Doing what?"

Reggie asked, confused, I rolled my eyes and turned around to face him, only to see him less than a foot away from me causing me to jump a little in surprise. "That!" I stated, arms gesturing in front of me for emphasis as I continued with "You just appearing out of no where! That has to stop!" He raised a brow in confusion, before shaking his head and chuckling in amusement. "(Y/n), I'm a ghost." I nodded my head a little before moving past him to get to the door.

"Yes you are a ghost."

Once I got to the door, I turned to him, angry eyes piercing through his as I stated "But that doesn't mean you can't walk through doors like a normal person!" With that I was quick to turn back around and march off down the hall "hey, hey, wait." Reggie said as he quickly caught up to me, taking my arm in his hand, which grabbed my attention. I stopped walking and looked over at Reggie, who's eyes seemed to be glued to his hand that was currently around my arm.

With a small shake of his head, he let go of my arm, a pink tint covering his cheeks. His forest green eyes drifted down towards his shoes before looking back into my (e/c) ones. "I wanted to talk to you about the band.." I rolled my eyes, turning around I started to walk off "Didn't we already talk about this? Julie isn't joining unless Flynn knows the truth, and Flynn doesn't want to believe a word I say, so why would I join the band?" Reggie was quick to appear in front of me, grabbing my attention, with a smile on his face.

"That's the thing, we are gonna prove to Flynn that we are really there."

I crossed my arms a crossed my chest "And why would I wanna prove anything to her?" A slightly confused look crossed Reggie's face "Aren't you two friends?" He asked as I started to walk off down the hall again. "Well, yeah. But all she does lately is criticize me. And I've had enough of it." Reggie was quick to follow after me as I headed towards my room "Why does she do that?" I walked through my bedroom door, turning around on my heals, which caught Reggie by surprise as he quickly stopped.

An annoyed look sat on my face as I asked "Why do you ask so many questions?!" Slamming the door on his face, I turned around and made my way over to my bed. I let out a huff in annoyance as I laid down on my bed, my back facing the door. After a few seconds, I felt the end of the bed dip, telling me that Reggie is now sitting on the end of the bed.

"I'm sorry I ask so many question..."

Reggie spoke quietly, his voice sounding much softer than normal. "I just... I want to get to know you." This peaked my interest, turning my head a little to look back at him over my shoulder, I noticed him leaned over with his elbows on his knees. His eyes seemed to be focused on one spot in the room as he continued, a small smile tugging at his lips "You remind me of myself in a way. Hiding things from your friends, pushing others away.." I sat up once he said that and was about to interject, only for him to quickly stop me.
