A/N- to celebrate this story hitting 300 reads, and Cat on the Balcony hitting 4K, here's a surprise update! I will also still update on Monday as usual. I love you guys so so much and appreciate all the votes and feedback ya'll have given me. Enjoy!!


As I sat and watched over Tyler, I wondered what would be going through his mind when he wakes up. Will he think I was a dream, or a ghost? How badly will he freak out when he sees me again? Will he listen to what I have to say? What do I have to say? My mind was filled with doubt and worry, but hopefully things will go ok. I can't exactly help Tyler if he's afraid of me. 

I heard his alarm go off, and I looked over at his face. He sat up and turned off the alarm and sat there for a moment. I watched as his facial expressions shifted several times and I was dying to know what he was thinking; what did he think of me?

Oh God, I hope I didn't come across as creepy or clingy last night...

The dark circles under his eyes were prominent this morning, but not as bad as last time. After Tyler had gotten ready for work, he walked out the door, but today he took his ukulele with him. I guess he was going to play in the park after work, I heard him and Brendon talking about that when Brendon was here the other night.

I wasn't sure if I was thankful or not for the extra time I was now going to have. On one hand, it gives me more time to plan out what I'm going to say and do, but on the other hand it gives me more time to over think things.

I was pacing around the living room, when suddenly Patrick appeared in front of me, causing me to shriek and jump back.

"You have got to stop scaring me like that!" I said with a hand on my chest. Patrick gave me a little lopsided grin.

"Sorry, I just wanted to see how things went last night."

"I got trapped in a mirror." I said with a frown on my face. I looked up and Patrick's eyes were wide.

"Really? And the Agma let you back out? It must be a pretty powerful one, normal ones can't do that. The more times an Agma succeeds in killing the person they're going after, the stronger it gets."

"No, it didn't let me out; I broke out." Now Patrick's eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

"What do you mean you broke out?"

"I just threw myself against the mirror a lot and it eventually broke."

"You shouldn't have been able to do that...no else has been able to. That means either the Agma did something wrong, or you're a lot stronger than you realize. Personally, I hope it's the latter option."

Patrick's words reminded me that Blurryface also said something along the lines of "I shouldn't have been able to do that." I thought nothing of it then, but maybe there's something more to this.

"So...what do I do now? I'm planning on showing up to Tyler when he gets back home, but what do I even say to him? 'Hey I'm a ghost that lives here and I'm trying to save you from a demon-thingy that wants you to die?' What if the next time Blurryface comes back I can't win?"

"Who?"

"Blurryface, that's what Tyler named his Agma."

"Oh. Anyways, just take it slow Josh, one day at a time. Definitely be gentle in how you tell Tyler what's going on, but maybe don't tell him the full story. Tell him you're here to help with Blurry-whatever-his-name-is, but don't say he's basically a demon and all of that. As far as fighting the Agma, the most important thing is to stay calm. Agmas feed off of depression and anxiety, so if you can remain as calm as possible he can't get any extra power off of you."
