Allison laughed.

"Bravo, Lyds. " She said laughing. "You can really make me laugh even in the worst moments. "

What Allison said was true, I always managed to make her laugh, but this time it wasn't a joke and I didn't know what to do to make her believe me.

"Yes, you're right. Only this time it's not a joke, but the truth. " I said stressed.

She looked at for a moment, and then she started laughing again. I got up on my feet and walked over to her.

"Oh, Lyds, you know ghosts don't exist. Where did you even get that from, huh? "

"Allison, I never lied to you. Now I'm telling the truth, I see ghosts, and one of them is standing next to you. " I said looking at my friend.

Brunette reflexively turned around. Stiles waved at her, but she didn't see him anyway, as you could see from her face.

"There's no one here." She said. "Except for you and me. " Said emphatically.

"Allison... " I sighed. " He's really here. I'm not a freak as you think. "

"Well, I don't know... " She said with a smile on her face.

"Look, you're my friend, and as I've said before, I've never lied to you. Now I'm telling the truth, too. "

Allison was looking at me still not being able to believe it. I knew that this conversation wouldn't be easy, but I also knew that I needed her help and I had to do everything to make her believe me.

"That book that fell when I was helping you with math..." I began. - It's his doing... "

"His? " Girl asked. "Who? Ghost? "

"Yes, but he's real and his name is Stiles. " I added.

"You know what Lyds? I think you're tired. Maybe you should rest for a while, huh? Take a few days off from school and... " Said, and another book fell off the shelf. Brunette looked at me in surprise and then went to put the book back in place.

"You know..." Stiles said. "She won't believe until she sees. " Brunet looked at me. "You know what I mean. " I nodded.

"What if I could prove it to you? " I asked my friend what she looked at me with a question mark. "What if I proved to you that Stiles is really here?"

"How do you want to do it? " Allison asked.

In response, she got a few books lying on the floor, the place of which should be on the shelves. Brunette looked at them still not knowing what was going on. After a while, more books fell from the shelves, the light began to flash, and the curtains in the windows began to sway, despite the fact that the window was closed. After a while, the pages in girl's notebook also began to change sides quickly. I knew Stiles could do even more, but it was clear that he didn't want to overdo it.

"Ok, what the hell is going on? " Teenager asked confused.

"I was going to prove to you that Stiles is here. That's all, it's his doing. " I said, looking at boy.

Brunet smiled at me, to which I replied with the same. It had only been a week since I had met him, and it seemed like I had known him longer. We spend every free moment with each other, looking for answers to questions, but so far we haven't met any.

Allison looked at everything surprised and confused. Stiles walked over to our glasses of water and then glanced at me. I shook my head. I didn't want him to do the same number with water as before, but boy just smiled broadly. He waved his hand and the water in the glasses shot up and headed towards Allison.

"What the...? " Girl said frightened.

Water swirled around her and later formed an inscription right in front of her. I walked up to her and looked at the inscription. The inscription read, "Hi Allison, I'm Stiles." Briefly and to the point. I smiled at myself.

"He's really here? " She asked still uncertainly.

"Told you. " I nodded a.

Stiles stood next to me. Then the water inscription disappeared and the water droplets slowly began to spin around us. I must admit that the view was beautiful. I turned around, encountering a brunet and he looked me straight in the eye. At times I forgot that he wasn't really real. I also realized that I would love for him to be. The droplets of water began to disappear, and Allison pulled me out of my thoughts.

"He's still here? " She asked shyly.

"Yes. " I replied. Stiles disappeared, and after a while he appeared next to Allison. I glanced at him and sent him a slight smile, which boy reciprocated. I showed my friend the place where the boy was. "He's standing next to you. "

Allison looked there.

"Um... Stiles? " She began hesitantly after a moment of reflection. "Can he hear me? " Allison asked, looking at me.

"Yes. " I replied, sending her a smile.

"Ok..." She began. "So.. Stiles... It's nice to meet you. "

I smiled. I knew that girl was still in shock after what had just happened in her room. I myself was in a slight shock, but despite this, I was glad that she believed me.

"It's nice to meet you too. " Stiles replied. "Will you tell her that?" He asked.

"Nice to meet you too, he said. " I said to friend.

"That's what he said? "

"Yes, and he hopes he didn't scare you. " I added, glancing at boy.

"No, not at all. "

"Yeah, sure. " I said with a laugh.

"Maybe a little bit. " She admitted. "And you? "

"What? "

"You were scared too? "

"Me? " I said with a smile on my face. "No, I was just surprised. "

We both laughed, and Stiles just shook his head, but you could easily see that he was smiling too.

***

After the whole incident, we decided to go for a walk in the park. Along the way, I told Allison everything. Stiles, on the other hand, disappeared, but promised to return soon. I was very curious where he was disappearing. Maybe on his own he tried to figure out what was holding him here? I was very curious about it, but I decided not to question him. Or at least for now, I won't.

We took our seats on a park bench.

"So he can't go to the other side, right? " Allison asked.

"Yes. "

"Why? "

"I don't know. Something is holding him here, but neither I nor Stiles know what it might be. That's why I was hoping that maybe you could help somehow. " I looked at my friend.

"Hmm... " Woman thought. "You know..." She began after a moment's thought. "Maybe it's not something that keeps him here... Just someone? " Allison looked at me.

"I thought so too, but he said that it certainly has nothing to do with his parents and... " I didn't finish because Allison entered my words.

"No, no, no." She said. "I'm not talking about his parents. "

"I don't understand. " I said. "So who? "

"You." She replied. "Maybe you're the one keeping him here... "
