"Ugh! Idiot!" Invisi Billy groaned as he flung himself onto one of the empty armchairs in the library. It was a Friday night, so no one was remotely near the library to hear him scold himself, "Why? Why am I such an absolute moron?! It was my own ghoulfriends birthday! Why? Why did I forget?" Invisi Billy reached into his bag and pulled out his iCoffin. Dialing a familiar number he held the phone to his ear, crossing his fingers that the person on the other end would pick up.
"Hello?" It was muffled, but it was clear who it was.
"Catty? Thank ghoul you answered. I really need to talk to you, you got a minute?"
"Well…." A man's voice behind her said something around 5 minutes before it was gone. "I'm kinda about to perform right now…" As she said that, the door to the library creaked open and caused Invisi Billy to nearly jump out of his skin.
Invisi Billy stood and looked around, "Alright, just call me when you're done, ok?"
"Of course! I'm so sorry Billy, I really wish I could help right now."
"Don't worry about it. Talk to you later." He didn't even wait for a reply before hanging up. Walking towards the door, he turned invisible. Standing at the door was the silhouette of a small girl and Invisi Billy squinted against the darkness to make her out. She looked around nervously before taking a few steps inside. The sight made Invisi Billy heart beat faster.
Before him was one of the most beautiful ghouls he has ever seen in his unlife. Her mint green- lilac hair fell in waves of curls down her back and her small frame was tinted slightly grayish-purple. Big purple eyes were framed by soft side-bangs and her mouth was set in a slight smile. Her dress more conservative, but the length was short enough to leave a little to imagination. Her heals clicked against the slightly rotted wood floor and she walked calmly to the fiction section of the library.
Thoughts and scenarios ran through his mind as he tried to think of some way to talk to this amazing ghoul, when he watched her stop mid-step. Her back stiffened and she glanced around, as if she something startled her. Her eyes became fixated on the exact spot where Invisi Billy was standing. "H-Hello?"
Invisi Billy's eyes widened and her became visible in front of her, "How did you know I was here?"
"I-I can see dreams. Even daydreams. I s-saw y-yours." Invisi Billy felt his cheeks flush and he began to apologize before the girl began to giggle at him, "It's alright. I'm Twyla." She held out a hand towards him.
He took it and responded with, "Invisi Billy. Can I ask what you're doing here of all places? There's a massive party going on at the Wolf's."
This time it was the girls turn to blush, "I'm not much of a party person, " She said softly and cast her eyes down. "I like being alone. And I really needed to get my mind off of everything that has been happening and remembered something my father told me. What better place to escape to than a good book?" She gestured around them and pulled a random book from a shelf. "You can go anywhere."
Smiling for the first time that night, Invisi Billy grabbed the first book he saw and looked it over 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.' Shrugging he flipped open the book and began to read. Twyla, he saw, sat and did the same. He didn't know how long they spent there, reading in silence, but it was interrupted soon by the sound of his cell phone ringing. Not even bothering to check the caller id and hit answer and gave a half-hearted, "Hello?"
"Billy?"
Invisi Billy sat up straight in his chair and Twyla gave him a glace from the side, "Scarah? What do you want?"
"I- uh- wanted to talk to you about what happened. Apparently you were really upset about what happened, or so Catty said."
Invisi Billy muttered a curse under his breath before responding with a short, "Why?"
"Huh?"
"Why do you suddenly want to make up now? Scarah you screamed at me that you never wanted to speak to me again. You claimed that I was the one who caused you so much pain. But then the next day I see photos of you at the movies with Hoodude in the ghostly gossip. I don't know what to think." Invisi Billy finished his rant and waited for the silent line to say something. When there was no response, Invisi Billy sighed, "'Sometimes you need to let people go. Not because you don't care, but because they don't.' A good friend of mind told me that and I'm sorry. Goodbye." Hanging up the phone with a single click, he returned to the book in his lap.
Twyla gave him a quizzical look, glancing down into her lap when Invisi Billy caught it out of the corner of his eye and looked back at her. Chuckling lightly, Invisi Billy smiled at her, "It's ok. Really. Maybe you could help me?" Invisi Billy asked and the girl's head came up with a curious glint in her eye, "My ghoulfriend- well ex-ghoulfriend now- and I got into a bit of a fight and I don't quite know what to do. She won't let me explain and probably won't give me another chance even though it's the first fight we ever got into. I just don't know what to do!" Invisi Billy put his head in his hands after his rant.
Twyla slowly scooted closer to him on their shared couch and placed a tentative hand on his arm, "You let her go."
Invisi Billy raised his head at that, "I didn't think I could," He croaked and felt tears sting his eyes.
"'Sometimes you have to let people go. Not because you don't care, but because they don't.'" Twyla quoted, smiling and rubbing his arm lightly, "That was a smart thing to say."
"Yeah, maybe." Invisi Billy mirrored the smile on Twyla's face and pushed the book onto the table. Then he reached up and laced his fingers into Twyla's own. He heard the girl audibly gasp and let his smile grow lightly. He leaned back onto the couch and kept their hands intertwined. He wasn't sure what this was, but he was happy nonetheless.
