There (Haunted)

Chapter forty-four

William's dead and I'm scared. How will I cope? I can't do this?

And how long will it be before I die? It seems so close but yet so far away, like I can't even reach for anything anymore.

William's gone.

Forever.

A tear runs down my face.

I didn't get to say goodbye. Nor did Harry, or Jenna. No one did.

The last thing he said to me was 'it will all be okay in the end. But if it's not okay, it's not the end.'

But it is the end for him anyway, and he's dead, so it's not okay!

What part of any of this is okay?!

God dammit William why did you have to leave me here along? You know I wouldn't be able to handle it! I'm going to go insane and end up where you did, in a mental institute but stay there! I'm screwed!

I am screwed.

Thank you William. What the hell did I do wrong?! Thank you William for leaving me at the blank spot that I am standing at. This is just great.

And I can't help it anymore. The years cone rushing down my face and my mum pulls me into a tight hug.

He's gone, and it's properly hit me know.

I am never going to see him again.

Ever

Stephen King once wrote, 'Monsters are real, and ghosts are real, too. They live inside us, and sometimes they win.'

Rose won. And she knows it. What I said to her earlier that she lost. I now know was a lie. And she knew it to. She knew what was going to come and I didn't.

I didn't.

And I couldn't stop it.

I couldn't do anything to prevent it from happening.

It's my fault.

'it's no one's fault Becs.' a voice says.

A man's voice, a different voice. A recognizable voice

A voice that I should never hear again.

Williams voice.
