Chapter 12 

~ Ree's POV

I Nearly screamed when I heard that familiar voice that had been haunting my dreams for those last couple of months. I turned toward the direction it was coming from, and sure as hell was Jye standing there-one foot leaning against the wall and his arms folded against his rock-hard-looking chest.

I stood there for a moment-just taking in his... well him. I hadn't seen him for almost three months and I was already crying, so I ran over to where he was standing and hugged him. I had to stand on my tippy-toes to reach his neck, but before I knew it, his arms where wrapped around me, and I sobbed into his shirt.

I looked into his eyes, thankful that I had already seen his death. "I'm so sorry I've been trying to avoid you. I never knew that you realised what I was doing. I'm so sorry Jye, you've been the only real friend I've had since I moved here and I know what I did was wrong, but you have to forgive me." I said through sobs. Just under his left shoulder was a wet patch and I laughed at him as I wiped the few tears away from my face.

He smiled and said softly, "Why are you laughing? I didn't tell a joke"

"No, I know-but your shirt's all wet." I said pointing to it and going back to my normal self.

"That's fine. It'll repair when I sleep, which I really want to explain. Can we sit down and talk somewhere?" He asked.

"Sure, grab the study chair and bring it near my bed." I said walking toward my bed. I slipped off my shoes and sat cross legged on my bed while I watched him fail at grabbing the heavy chair.

"Oh yeah, you can't do that. Hold on." I went to go help him and laughed when he grabbed my hand and touched the chair with our intertwined fingers.

"Now you can go and sit down. All I need is to make sure that the person who owns the object I try to grab, touches it the same time I do so my hand won't float right through it." he said while he brought the chair over with ease. I thought about the fact that he could have just asked me to give him a hand instead of actually grabbing my hand and touching the chair.

I blushed at the thought and sat down again. "So, what other information have I missed?" I asked with a smirk.

He answered with a guilty look and leaned forward on the chair and said, "Before I start, I just want to say that I'm really sorry I didn't tell you when we first met. I guess not having your best friend even remember who you are got me a little... Nervous. I didn't want you thinking that I was a freak and ditch me straight away. I was waiting for the right time to tell you and then you just found out and ruined all my plans. Now would you like to know how and why I'm here? I'll give you a choice in case you're already a bit too overwhelmed."

"Jye, I've known that you're a ghost for the last two and a half months. The fact that we are both psychic's freaked me out a little at the beginning but, seeing as how things haven't been normal since I moved, I wasn't that overwhelmed. Things aren't normal-I get that. But just because you're a ghost it won't change my mind about how i feel about you. Things still aren't normal, but you're my friend, which means I don't care. You could be a real werewolf for all I know and I still wouldn't care. You should know, that I don't care what my friends look like-ghost or not. Just as long as they have a good heart and the right intentions-that was the only reason I wanted to avoid you, because you kept a major secret from me and just kept on disappearing every time I wanted to talk to you. And I would love to know how my first Best Friend ended up being a ghost." I said then gave him a sincere smile.
