Too far gone

Back to yourself

--- Jimmy's POV ---

It's been about... oh, I don't know... three years, maybe? That makes us, what.. 17? I think? Not sure, I always zoned out when Ghost was in math class. Honestly, I zone out alot anymore. With no one knowing my secret, that box disappearing, and Toaster no where to be found, I don't have much to do.

At first, I would practice with taking control, finding ways to scare Ghost into submission so that I could have free reign. That got old fast though. He never really seems to fight back... so, I just mess wih his mind instead! Moving memories round, changing some feelings about people.... erasing memories completely... Ohhhh, that one is fun on test day! This kid could be a straight A student if it weren't for me, I bet. But hey, it doesn't affect me, so why should I care!?.... well... it does affect me.. when I'm in control, I still have his brain and therefore his memories, but I still have mine too. So our minds kind of merge together into this giant blob of confusion. We learned how to read and write in school, so I know how to do that, but I kinda messed that up for him. I erased his memory of learning those things on accident, so... whenever I'm in control, we can't read or write, but if he's in control, I can help him... if I want.

There are times when he seems to know about me. Especially when I'm helping him read something. He thanks someone once he understands the words. Either he's thanking me or himself... and then there are times when he'll seem to talk to me when we're alone. He'll ask a question and I'll reply, then he will continue talking to me until he's distracted by something else. And, well... I have to admit, I enjoy the attention. No one ever speaks to me directly, of course, no one knows I exist... I want to change that. Since I have no one to kill, I could just pretend Ghost flipped back to being me, right? I could be normal. I could be myself. I've tried telling grandpa many times, but he doesn't seem to understand. And I'd tell grandma, but... she died around two years ago. And then grandpa shut down.. his mind, his emotion, he's just a man now.. but maybe if I told him, maybe if he knew one less death had really happened, maybe he'd accept me and come back? Back to himself?... That'd be cool!

--- Ghost's POV ---

"..."
"Ghost?"
"..."
"Ghost!"
"........"
"Ghost, wake up!"
"Huh!?" I snapped awake to a room of laughing teens and an angry math teacher.
"How many times have I told you not to fall asleep in my class!? You're already failing, the least you can do is stay awake!!" The math teacher caught me asleep again, it seems. Wonderful. Another night I get to hide in my room from the judgemental glare of my grandfather. I've been asleep in this class for the past three weeks, I just can't stay awake.. I always somehow pass the final tests, but I just can't stay awake... during... class...

And with a thud, Johnny Ghost was asleep in math class again.

A/N
Last day of the year.
Have fun with it!
Try not to die, kay?
Right! Little update chapter, just cause I don't know where to take those other three years. I could rough my way through it but.. I don't wanna >:C
So yeah, hope you enjoyed all 541 words =-=" (so few words, it hurts)
I'll try to post another as soon as I can, of course. Sorry for leaving this book so long without and update again. (That will probably happen this time aswell...)
