In love with a ghost || { Tate Langdon ff }

Chapter 2

A few days had passed byand everything is going really well. Dad is working from home from now on, I don't know exactly what mom does, I rarely see her.and me? I sit in my room most of the time and listen to music. like I said, everything is going very well. At least mostly. I often hear dad arguing with some boy he seems to be treating. I guess it bothers dad that he ift walks around our house for ages after his sessions and I mean it's really a little creepy. I've seen him a couple of times, too, but apart from a brief, cursory greeting, we haven't really spoken. But I can already tell he's weird. The voices from dad's workspace fall silent and for a brief moment it's quiet. the sudden, loud closing of the door startles me and then it's quiet again. I suddenly feel like I'm being watched and that's not a rare feeling in this house, but it's different right now. When I turned around I saw him standing in the door frame. Blonde messy hair. A striped sweater and a small smile on his face. And if I'm honest, he even looks cute right now. but he just stands there. silently. And that makes me damn nervous. ,,do you need anything?" I asked ,,Nah I'm good" He answered. It was quiet for a brief moment before he started talking again ,,what's your name?" ,,Lilly" silence ,,you're tate, aren't you?" I asked ,,Yeah, well pleasure to meet you, lilly" he said. ,,pleasure to meet you too, tate" Suddenly I hear footsteps coming up the stairs. "I need to go. I don't think your dad would be happy if he sees me here" he said ,,Yeah, you're right. It was nice to meet you" and with that he leaves. just a short moment later my door was opened again. ,,who are you talking to?" My dad asked. ,,I only spoke to grandparents on the phone. why are you interested in this?" ,,just curious" and with that he leaves as fast as he came.
that night it took me ages to fall asleep. I don't know why, but I can't stop thinking about him. about how he stood there in my door frame, about how messy but still perfect his hair fell in his face and about his perfect, cute smile. I hate to admit it but maybe I'm starting to fall in love with him. But that's definitely something that shouldn't happen...

That's the second chapter of my book and I'm kinda satisfied...
