The bell goes marking the end of school . This is the best day no school and no ghosts nothing's happened since I've had people at my house . I walk home with Heather .
"I'm so glad the ghost business is done I was so done with Amber before she was dead never mind now " Heather said
" you I never even met her and I couldn't even start to feel comfortable in my new home " I say stopping at the end of my garden
"Well text me I know tates coming for his shift with you in like a hour so yeah" Heather says
"Thank you " I say walking into my house

I walk in the house and it's freezing so I put the heating on . I sit and watch TV in the living room . I can hear something moving in the cupboard. I stand up really fast and walk to the cupboard and put my Hanson the handle . I open it really fast and there's nothing in there I lean forward and switch the light on inside . I walk in to see what could half made the noise . Right be hide me the door closes smashing the light . I stand in the darkness trying not to make a noise . I go and grab the door handle I screaming pain as the door handle is boiling hot and I just grabbed it . I start slamming the door and screaming . It opens from the other side and I see Tate . I rap my arms around him in relief .

Just as we separate there's banging up stairs . I run up stairs . I realise the sound is from my room I run in their it's trashed everything .

I walk around just trying to take in how fucked my room is. I look up and theres paint on my wall I walk over to the wall and realise it's under the wallpaper.

I start to pull it off . More and more wallpapers. Reliving in large red writing spelling WHORE on my wall.
My mouth opens in shock . I don't know what to say . Tate stands be hide me silent too . We just stand in silence
