WENDY'S POV

After the boys had eaten lunch the following morning of the party, they all sat in the living area watching Ashton and Michael play some sort of video game. From the looks of it, it seemed to be GTA.

I waltzed into the room quietly and took a seat on the couch next to Calum. There was an awkward tension between us. I wonder if he remembered the previous night or if it was just a blur to the dark haired boy. Every time our skin brushed, even if it was just for a second, we would turn toward each other sheepishly. It was silent, the only sound coming from the video game. Calum eventually pulled out his phone to look distracted, playing a game or texting someone. I was fidgeting and a little uncomfortable in my current position. Suddenly Luke leans his head back to look at me.

"Can we talk privately?" He mumbles, my book sat text to him, so I knew it was nothing to serious. I nod and we walk out into the hallway.

"I read A Mother in Manville." He starts, brushing his hair with his fingers. "I hope you don't mind , I read a few other stories too. My favorite was The Most Dangerous Game, I liked the action in it." The blonde boy hands me my old, tattered book. Before walking off he asks a question that caught me off guard. "Do you like the story because you relate to it? Do you feel alone like Jimmy?" His eyes are honestly concerned.

"Sometimes." I sigh, looking past him at the rug in the hall.

"Wait, Wen..." He breaths, reaching his hand out to my shoulder which was covered by my burgundy knit sweater. "What happened between you and Calum?"

"What?" I blurb, how could he even know.

"Oh, come on, he's my best friend. I know him inside and out." The blonde says as if it were obvious.

"It's nothing, I swear!" I tell him falsely, leaning on the wall. But I couldn't feel the rock hard wall behind me. I couldn't quite understand what was happening at that moment, but I tried reclaiming my balance which I had lost. When I opened my eyes, which were closed shut when I began to lose my balance, I was starring at the wall that I thought was in the other room. I turned around, three of the boys gapping at me like they had just seen a ghost. Which they had, but it wasn't that, that made their faces so pale.

"What the fuck just happened?" Michael curses, still astonished. Luke runs through the door, the same look of panic on his face as the others. It took me a second to process what just occurred in the old house. I took a deep breath, regathering my information and proof.

I had just walked through a wall.

I slowly took steps towards the wall , closed my eyes tightly and when I opened them I was in the hallway once again. I stepped back into the room with the four boys, mentally freaking out that I had gained another ghost ability. It was like I was becoming more ghost, was that even possible?

"You just walked through the wall." Michael stated blankly, they were all still starring. I sat back on the couch, their eyes following. We sit there for a few seconds, still processing.

"Well, who won?" I gesture to the TV, where the game is set up, that has been paused.

"Clearly me, Ashton sucks." Michael declares.

"Hey!" Ash shouts out, looking the tiniest but hurt.

"It's true!"Calum tags in, like still stood at the door, but he looked more awake.

"Well Cal, should we prove that?" Ashton challenges him. I ignore the bickering and turn to Luke. He had taken a seat near the coffee table, but the look of shock still remained. I could tell by his facial expression, he was trying to fit a puzzle together, eventually he gave up in frustration. Luke pulled out his phone to quickly to check the current time, but I caught a glimpse of the date.

October 1st, 2013.
