The boy in the mist

chapter 3

This spirit is different from what I've working with before but I want nothing more than to know more about the boy in the mist.

Harry's pov

It's the next day when I finally step into the house again to only find out that some of the furniture has been moved which is weird because I checked the cameras this morning and saw nothing which means that the spirit was recently active.

I put my back down and grab the spirit box and turn it on "Why did you move the furniture." I ask and I wait for a few minutes for a response but it stays silent, I was about to repeat the question when a faint sound of laughter is heard from the spirit box and I can't help but smile slightly at the sound.

"Your name is Lewis right?" I hear an angry growl which confuses me, am I dealing with someone else...?

"Louis." A clear soft voice says through the spirit box and I can't help but stare at it in shock, it was one of the clearest voices that I've ever heard coming through the spirit box. "Louis... Why are you scaring the family that lives here?"

I once again wait for a little while but there is no response, after trying a few more times I decide to just turn off the spirit box and put it back in my bag right when I'm doing that I hear a loud bang coming from upstairs.

After climbing the stairs I'm trying to find where the sound came from and right as I'm about to give up I feel like I'm getting shoved, the shoving continues until I'm in a rather small and gross looking room. It looks like it hasn't been use in years.

But laying there on the ground in a small dusty book, I pick it up only to find out that it's a diary? I was about to put it back into the bookcase but as I was about to do that I heard a growl which stopped me from putting it back.

I shrug and take the book downstairs again and put it in my bag as well before taking the spirit box out again to talk to Louis again.

"Louis...Why do you want me to take the diary?" "Read" the soft voice says through the spirit box again. I nod slowly "I will."

I stay silent for a bit not knowing what to say, I look around for a bit and my eyes fall on the mirror and what I saw almost made me faint, staring back at me was a misty looking Louis. I could barely make out a face but his bright blue eyes were still visible and burning into my soul.

Louis noticed my eyes on him and once again waved at me before disappearing again leaving me behind in shock.

After that I decided to just leave the house and to the office to look over the diary with Zayn.

I walk into the office feeling more tired than usual, it's like all my energy left as I walked out the door of the house. "Wow Hazz you look like you have been hit by a train." Zayn chuckles out as he turns to me in his chair.

I roll my eyes "More like been hit by a fucking ghost, have you seen anything weird on the camera by the way?" Zayn nods and waves me over, I pull a chair out and sit down next to him "So after you left the spirit well more like mist has been staring at this one camera for a while before literally giving it the finger and disappearing again."

I stare at the screen and honestly can't believe as I watch the mist now known as Louis literally just do that. "It's very weird, it doesn't seem aggressive at all it seems like it just wants company but then again during the day they are less likely to be very aggressive so I think I should sleep there tonight."

Zayn looks at me in disbelieve "Harry I don't think that that's a good idea, I've been reading more into the previous owners who also left due to the spirit and they say it's very aggressive, it tried to choke the male in his sleep."

I shrug "Well you will just have to stay here then and watch over me." I smile at Zayn who looks ready to kill me "But-" "Nope you have work I don't care this is important. Now I have something to read so bye bye also tell Niall to not park on my spot again or I will stab his tire and then him." I wave at Zayn before walking into the breakroom and laying down on the couch with the diary.

I open it and can't help but gasp, on the first page is written 'Louis' diary stay out or I will steal all your left socks and shove them up your ass' I let out a soft chuckle at that the boy has humor.

1st of April 2015

Dear diary, I hate this so fucking much!

But today I had my first day at work at the café when this guy came in, he kept staring and me and I think he even took some pictures of me. I feel slightly scared of my safety and that of my family oh god I don't know what I would do if something happened to my mom or sisters.

I also spit in someone's coffee who called me ugly.

I will keep you updated on the scary guy situation.

-Louis.

This diary might be able to help me find out what happened, maybe he got so crazy due to the weird guy that he hung himself or something like that but all I know is that I will have to find out to help him cross over so that the family baker can have a peaceful life again.

I close the diary again and get up with a huff, I should get ready for tonight because I feel like it's going to be an adventure.
