Caleb's POV
Ezra hasn't spoken to us in a while. I decided to go to his house. Maybe he's depressed cause of Aria. Tears built in my eyes. It's still weird how Aria's dead. It doesn't feel like it to me. I knocked on Ezra's door.

"What?" He asked, chugging a bottle of beer.

The hell is wrong with him?

"Ezra, what's wrong?"

"Nothing! Leave me the fuck alone!" He screamed closing the door.

I held it open with my palm. And took away his beer, and invited myself in.

"Please," I said, "Tell me what's wrong."

Ezra cried. "I think I saw Aria's ghost."

I don't really believe in ghosts. He's gone mad.

"Uhm."

"Don't believe me," he chuckled while crying, "I know you think I'm crazy."

I lied, "Nah."

"Please, Caleb."

"Okay fine," I laughed, "Maybe a little."

"I don't expect you to Caleb, but I touched her shoulder and it seemed so real."

"Did she leave the house?" I asked.

"Nope, I feel like she's still here."

I got up from the couch and looked around. The bathroom was closed. That's weird, all doors are usually open. I glanced at Ezra.

"Can I?"

He nodded. I opened the door. It was Aria. I rubbed my eyes. Still there. She turned around her blondeish brown hair flipping towards me. She was adjusting her makeup so only one eye had an eyeliner wing.

"Caleb?" She sniffed. It was her.

"How?" I asked.

"Please don't tell Ezra, I'm not ready."

"How could you keep this from us?"

She looked down and looked back up, "I couldn't. We're aren't safe, Caleb. A is everywhere."

"A's locked in a cell in a high security prison."

She laughed but not loudly for Ezra not to hear, "Nope."

A's still existing. Then who's A?

"Who is this person?" I asked.

"I don't know, but I escaped the hospital, that's why the machine stopped. It wasn't my heartbeat."

"Did this person kidnap you?"

She nodded. "Please don't say anything yet. I'll reveal myself tomorrow. Promise."

"Okay, fine."

She then opened up the closet and hid herself in back of a lot of towels and dirty laundry. Ezra approached.

"What happened?" He asked.

"Nothing, a bug was in the wall."

I can't believe this. Holy crap.
