Chapter 2

Hi again!! New chapter!! Yayyyy! >< oh btw the girl in the picture is Gwendolyn :3
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(In the last chapter) "It's just... I'm feeling dizzy." She looked over at me. "Everything is spinning"

Gwendolyn's POV:

Oh my gosh. The time had come. I took a deep breath. Grandma will be thrilled when she hear that... And aunt Glenda even more.

"Awesome.." Leasley whispered next to me. "Will she disappear or something now?" Even though grandma had said that we aren't allowed to tell anyone what is going on in our family, I decided that I have to tell Leasley. I mean, she's my best friend and best friends tell each other EVERYTHING.

Charlotte for the first time in her life looked actually vulnerable. I knew exactly what I had to do, aunt Glenda had told me at least a thousand times.

"I'll take Charlotte home. If that's okay..." I told Mr. Wittman as I stood up.

Mr. Wittman was still looking at Charlotte. "That's a great idea, Gwendolyn" he said. "I hope you will be better soon Charlotte."

"Thank you" Charlotte responded weakly while walking to the door. "Gwennie are you coming?"

I ran over to her side and putted my arm around her waist to help her walk. For the first time I felt somewhat important next to Charlotte. It was nice to know they need you.

"Call me to tell me everything!" Leasley whispered to me.

Outside the door, Charlotte's weakness was no longer there. She even wanted to get her stuff from her locker.

I stopped her though by grabbing her sleeve. "Not now Charlotte we need to go home immediately! Aunt Glenda said.."
"I don't feel it anymore." She said

"So what?! It might happen anytime now!" I pulled Charlotte with me to the direction of the door. "Where have I put the chalk?" I searched my pockets. "Oh here it is! And my cellphone... Should I call home? Are you scared? Scratch that, stupid question.. Sorry, I'm a bit shocked"

"Its okay. I'm not scared"

I stared at her face looking for any sign of fear . She had that 'Mona Lisa smile' again... Impossible to understand what she felt...

"Should I call home?"

"Oh yeah, cause that would be so much of a help" she replied sarcastically
"I just thought..."

"Better let the thinking on me" she snapped at me. We went down the stairs where James usually sat. The problem with James was that, except me, no one could see or hear him.

James was a ghost. That's why I didn't speak to him when there were other people around. Only with Leasley I was comfortable to talk to him. She believed James existed. She actually believed everything I was telling her, she never doubted me.. That's one of the main reasons why she is my best friend. It was upsetting her that she couldn't see and hear James thought.

I was kinda happy about it though, cause the first thing James said when he saw her was "oh my gosh, that poor child has more freckles than the sky's sun! if she doesn't do something about her face, she will never find a husband!"
On the other side, the first thing Leasley said was "ask him if he has hidden some kind of a treasure in the school!"
Sadly James hadn't a hidden treasure in the school... He was pretty offended that Leasley though he was able of doing something like that. He also seemed offended when I was pretending he didn't exist. He was easily offended.

"Can you pass through him?" Leasley asked the first time they met.

"I don't know... I've never tried it"
