You slowly stand up. "Max? Max LaPlume?" He gives you a look. "How do you know my last name?" You clear your throat, trying to think of something to make him realize that it's you. You finally think of the perfect thing. "Button," you whisper quietly. He looks at you all dumbfounded for a second before grinning a relieved smile. "Button?" "Hey," you playfully say. "Only my mom and grandma calls me that." "It is you."

"Being reunited with your childhood best friend after eight years apart? Sounds like a heart-warming story. Finding out that said best friend is now a complete jerk who's determined to make your life hell? Not so much." Georgie and Connor were once inseparable. Best friends from birth, they did everything together - well, that was until Connor's dad got a once-in-a-lifetime job opportunity and the family was forced to relocate to New York. At age sixteen, Georgie's life is totally different - her main goal being to keep her head down and escape the brutalities of high school with as little emotional scarring as possible. Balancing school, work and her dwindling social life is enough of a challenge, but it's about to get a bit more complicated when her conceited ex-best friend gets thrown into the mix. Maybe friendship should come with an instruction booklet.

❝You don't believe in me,❞ was the Ghost's mysterious reply. ❝Of course I don't,❞ Crooge spat. ❝If I believed in every spiritual object that I encountered, I would be as much of a fool as this whole town.❞ The Ghost's sad smile didn't waver. ❝I wish I could make you see sense, Corenezer, but my time here is nearly up. I come bearing a warning, old friend.❞ ❝Warning?❞ Crooge snarled. ❝Your warning means as much to me as Christmas.❞ ❝Exactly what I'm here to talk to you about.❞ The Ghost lifted its hands. Crooge, upon closer inspection, saw heavy chains wrapped around the Ghost's forearms. ❝Corenezer Crooge, I come to warn you. If you do not change, if you remain as you are, you will be doomed to share my fate. You will suffer amongst the ghosts of those who could have been, wrapped in chains such as these, and be forced to wander the world forever, never resting.❞ ❝Nonsense. Crooge waved it off. ❝This mysterious announcement of yours- it is pure nonsense. Death has withered your mind, Jacob.❞ The Ghost ignored him. ❝You will be haunted by three spirits. Its ghostly smile returned. ❝I do hope you will learn to change, Corenezer. Good bye, old friend.❞ And with that last message, the Ghost of Jacob Marsky disappeared with its heavy chains, as if it was never there. »»--------¤--------«« A grumpy, old man by the name of Corenezer Crooge (NewScapePro) learns the true meaning of Christmas through the help of three spirits (YourPalRoss, Shubble, and Mithzan).

"Knock knock! Haha!" I say. "W-who's t-there?" I wasn't expecting anyone to reply. Who was this male voice? "Dishes." "D-dishes w-who?" He replies. I giggle. "Dishes a very bad joke!" I state. He laughs whole-heartedly, though still trying to keep quiet. "U-um, m-my turn?" "Okay!" I agree. "Kn-knock knock," he says. "Who's there?" "THE DOOR!" He whisper/shouts. I snort, clapping a hand over my mouth, though he couldn't see it. "That's a good one! My name's Y/N L/N!" "I-I'm Prince Max Mithzan." ". . . . . ." "A-are you s-still th-there?" "Y'know, you should have more confidence in yourself! That stutter isn't exactly gonna help you with politics!" "Heh, y-yeah. I'll . . . Talk t-to y-you l-l-later?" "Yeah.

And when a threat comes, will she be able to stop it? No matter how hard she tries?
