It had been almost two weeks from when I had last saw William. Robbie never talks about him anymore, which makes me think either William had told Robbie not to say anything or that he had gone off doing whatever ghosts do. Secretly I had done some more digging on William's family, trying to see what kind of person he was while he was haunting, okay living in the house with us. I was disappointed when I couldn't get some of the documents that I was looking for when I had visited the library either them not being able to locate them or that because I was not anyway related to the family I was not allowed to access the files. Which just lead me to read everything on google about the history of dover. Finding a few articles in an old newspaper of the Dover ports then owned by William's dad. Saying how successful it had become and that it had increase the employment rate in Dover significantly. So, his family were wealthy. Well known and well liked. So what and why would make his dad murder his own family? Wanting to ask William more but part of me still not ready to deal with the reality that he even existed.


Finishing off in the shower I turn the handle to shut the hot water off, wrapping myself in a tower I open the bathroom door and nearly let go of the tower from jumping in shock when I see William laid out on my bed with his hands behind his head.


"You really shouldn't just let yourself into people's rooms its really rude, what if I had been naked?"


Earning me just a simple shrug from him.


"I've seen a lot of women naked, it's all the same."


What an asshole.


"No offence but I really don't care. Can you just give me some privacy to get changed please."


I wait for a response or for him to move but he does neither. After nearly five minutes of just watching him on the bed, my bed. I decide to just grab my clothes from the wardrobe and change in the bathroom. Clasping my bra up, I look at myself in the mirror. All the bruises had faded away which I was thankful for because I was going to watch Cameron and the band play tonight at the pub. I had decided to put it off till I was ready, scared that Scott would try something again. But he hadn't, he didn't even talk to me let alone look in my direction when me and Cameron saw him in the high street earlier this week, which I was more than happy with.


Grabbing my shirt, I begin to pull it on when the door opens and William walks in.


"Oh my god. Seriously!"


Why does he always smirk whenever I show the slightest bit of annoyance by his actions or something he had said. I was just getting use to him being gone and now here he was again causing trouble.


"Calm down. Look, I think you and me got on the wrong foot of each other and I wondered if maybe we could help each other out."


I raise an eyebrow when his eyes go down my very underdressed body.


"Eyes front and center. Stop looking at me like that your making me uncomfortable."


His eyes shift, waiting for a witty response from him he all but turns around and walks back out. Finally, now he gets the picture of personal boundaries.
