I wake up surrounded by ghosts, they all wear masks and blue gloves. I try and push them off me but they are stronger than I expected. "STOP IT KHLOE!" A familiar voice shouts, "DRIVE!" My eyes dart open and I see a steering wheel and a swerving road. I pull the wheel to a hard left and we stop instantly. I turn my head to see Jaylon. I blink twice and he pushes himself out of the car. Limping towards the road. "I can't drive!" I suddenly scream, "I know..." He calls back sitting on the side of the road, "FOR GO SAKES I'M 15!" He nods and . "That's why I questioned this whole idea," He seems to be worried about his leg. "Did you hurt yourself?" I ask. "No, but before-earlier..."

"What?"

"Ugh I don't know how much you remember"

"Um... I remember reading Jada's document!" I say hoping it would help. He gives me a concerned look and shakes his head. "Um, that was last week." My eyes widen and I kind of jump back. "What really?" What day was it, like he read my mind he answers with. "September 15th" Oh. "Wait so what happened to your leg?" I ask again. "I hurt it yesterday." He says calmly, that's why you were driving. "How did you-" "Someone hit me with a shovel while we were burying Jada- oh...oops..." "YOU BURIED JADA WITHOUT ME??!!!" I scream standing up "we had to" His voice no longer sounds tall and loud, now it's small and quiet. "HOW COULD YOU?" "You were there Khlo, it's just you weren't, there you know?" I shake my head and stomp back to the car in a phase of anger and frustration. I slam the door and lean against the window.

The ghosts are back! They are everywhere now grabbing me and pulling me into submission. "Khloe! It's ok!" I hear, my dad. "Just stop please she's not well!" Someone grabs my arm and pulls my head down, it hits a hard surface I bounce up and find myself staring at my teacher. "Khloe perhaps you would like to go to the nurse's office..." "Um sure" I agree. I stand up and take my stuff, the bell rings once I'm down the stairs to the office. "Khloe! Khloe!" I heard Serah yell. "Hi Ser..." I moan, I'm so tired, I could just fall asleep right now. "Jay asked me to give this to you!" She says handing me a piece of paper. I un crumple it and read it out loud, "The courtyard?"
"Just go!" She laughs. I take the paper and run to the courtyard.

I see him there he's wearing a hoodie and jeans. "Khloe!" He yells. "Hi!" I drop my stuff and stand as he runs to me. "You look tired are you ok?" he asks. "I'm fine" I reply, "Ok, follow me."

Behind the courtyard is a little alley way, it's filled with candles that are all lit up and beautiful. "Jay what is this?" I laughing I cover my mouth and he grabs me by the shoulders and walks me down, "When, how?"

"Just sit" He says I sit down and he returns holding a candle "Jay what is this?" I ask. "Well the yearly halloween dance is coming up and-" Wait what day is it?" I ask cutting him off, he looks surprised but replies anyways. "It's the 17th" "Oh"

"Anyways I just wanted to ask if maybe you would like to come, as my date?" I smile

"Of course!" I say. He takes me into a long hug and then peels me off to kiss me. He turns his head and opens his mouth, woah wait I'm not that full of yet, I push into him and let go, a nice way to end a kiss. "Hey um look I'm really sorry about yesterday..." What? I ask myself, "What do you mean?" I ask, "In the car, look I don't know what got over me, I know I shouldn't have told you but-"
"Jay what are you talking about?" I ask, "Oh it's nothing must have been a dream or...something..."

Me and Jay are the power couple at the school. Everybody was talking about Jada but now it's our every move! Ah popularity! I don't know what went wrong with me but it's whatever now! Today during math me and Jay were talking and he invited me over to his house, "It's just me and a couple of friends, it's so we can all just, cheer, up about you know... Jada and stuff."

"Uh sure..." I say, I was trying to forget about that it been about two weeks, at first it was really hard on all of us, but it's a bit better now. "What should I wear?" I ask, he smirks and runs his hands through my hair, "Something... sexy" He laughs, I laugh with him and the bell rings.
