A/N: ... I had this entire chapter all planned out, but, I didn't write anything down... Now... I don't remember it. So... Here's me trying to re-write something that I can't remember. Haha, that sounds like someone I know... Onto the story!

The Diary

Three

Another day, living with a ghost.

What a weird first thought. Where was that ghost, anyways? "Sonic?" I called out.

"Yes?" he asked. He was upside down... with his head coming out of the ceiling.

"What are you doing?"

"Just hanging out."

I laughed. I must be tired. I looked over at the clock... It was late. I slept in. "Why didn't my alarm clock go off?" I said in a very accusing tone.

"I turned it off," he said, suddenly standing up right on the floor.

"Why? How? You're transparent! Only I can see you. Why can you touch things?"

"I don't know."

"Why'd you turn my alarm off?"

"I told you not to go to work, today."

"You could have at least let me call in!"

"I already did that."

I looked at him, frowning. "People can... hear you?"

He shook his head, "I sent 'BOSS' a text."

"What did you say? Exactly?"

"Still sick. Can't work."

I sighed. "Well... okay. Are you going to keep disappearing, today?"

"Who knows?" Suddenly, he was gone.

"Well, clearly you do." I groaned and got out of bed. At least I felt fully rested... something that I haven't felt in ages.

I sat down on the table, trying to draw something, since there was nothing else to do, but nothing came to mind.

"I don't know much about drawing," Sonic said, suddenly sitting on the table, "but aren't you supposed to move the pencil?"

"What do I draw?"

"Draw yourself."

"Myself?"

He nodded.

"...Alright."

"No reflections," he said. Suddenly the mirror at the end of the hallway was gone, as well as my cup of tea, the curtains on every window were closed... all in about one second.

"How did you...?'

He shrugged, "magic?"

I laughed, awkwardly. "Alright. I have a magical ghost living with me. I was doubting my sanity, before. But now? Maybe I should go get some help..."

Suddenly, I heard a click. I looked over at the front door, where Sonic was standing, grinning. He had locked the door.

He was going to kill me.

I laughed at the thought I had. That was impossible. He was a ghost... who... was able to use a cell phone, turn off an alarm clock, and everything he had just done seconds ago. It was... possible. I had to get out of here. I had to escape. First... I had to make sure I wasn't being pranked. That also required leaving...

"Why are you laughing?"

"Oh, um," I laughed awkwardly, "I don't know." I got up and wandered around the kitchen. I had to be out of something. I had to have a good excuse to leave.

"What are you looking for? I'll take anything that gives off a reflection."

I shook my head. "Tea!" I turned around and opened my box of tea. There were no tea bags. "Tea helps me concentrate. We're out. I need more."

"Now?"

"Yes." I paused. Here," I grabbed a long piece of rope and tied it around the ghost's waste. I shook my head at how the rope didn't go through him. I tired the other half to my hand. "You're coming with me. I don't want to leave you alone."

"I can escape this at any time I choose."

"Don't you dare!" I left the house, and got in my car, only to realize that Sonic wasn't able to get in the car since we were connected. As I was about to get out, he walked right through the car... and jumped up on the seat. I stared at him with wide eyes. "I should be used to this. That never fails to freak me out..." I backed out of the driveway and began racing to my brother's house. I got out, running to the front door. I banged on the door about fifty times before Shadow opened the door.

"What are you doing?" he asked.

"What am I doing? Shadow, what are you doing?"

"What are you talking about?"

"I know all about your little prank. You can stop it, now!"

"What prank?"

"Don't act innocent, Shadow! You know what I'm talking about. Your little friend got busted."

Shadow growled, obviously displeased with the news. "He told you?"

"It was obvious. Can't you come up with anything better?"

"This was the best thing!"

"It was great, yeah, but... it was so unrealistic."

"What are you talking about?"

I paused. "What are you talking about?"

"You tell me."

"I'm talking about this!" I pointed to Sonic, with my hand that had rope on it.

"What? A rope?" His eyes were suddenly very wide and focussed on the rope, which... I guess, if he couldn't see Sonic, the rope was just floating.

He waved his arms above and below the rope... right through Sonic. "Doesn't that hurt?" I asked him.

"Why? What's there?" Shadow replied.

"Not you!"

"Someone sticking their arms through me? I've felt worse," Sonic frowned.

"Not me? Amy, what are you doing? Are you trying to prank me?"

"No! You're trying to prank me... right? Shadow, please tell me this is your prank and I'm not going crazy. No, I can't be going crazy... you see the rope... but not him. How is this possible?" I sat down on the ground, unable to stand, anymore. I was so overwhelmed. What was going on? I had never believed in ghosts. There was always a reasonable excuse. How could this be explained? I saw a ghost, and Shadow saw a floating rope.

Maybe crazy was in our blood... I sighed. If he couldn't see Sonic, he wouldn't be much help. "Gotcha!" I said... a little too unconvincingly.

"What?"

"It was a prank. See, when I say three... the rope will fall." I could only hope that Sonic would do his part in this. "One. Two. Three." I closed my eyes, afraid to see if he let the rope go, or not.

"It's still there," shadow muttered.

I opened my eyes and stared at Sonic. He shrugged, "was I supposed to do something?"

"Make the rope fall... Please!"

"Who are you talking to, Amy?"

"My... imaginary friend."

Shadow laughed. I would never hear the end of that.

Sonic backed out of the rope, allowing it to fall.

"There! See? All done." I laughed, "you should have seen your face. Now, I have to go. See ya!" I waved and started running back to my car. "Come on," I said to Sonic.

He walked through the car, again, and sat on the seat while I drove back to the house. When we got back in the house, Sonic stood in front of me... not at all looking happy.

A/N: Okay! I know this is so short and crappy, but it's... basically a filler. I'd write more but I don't want to put too much in this, since the next part will be... filing... haha, and I'm going to see Carly Rae Jepsen, and I said I'd update a story a day. So... haha, yeah. This is what I came up with. Took a few days... haha, it's kind of hard to write about a ghost and a person, and try to get them together. But, yeah. Anyways.

Review! Please! [: let me know this is still being read! [x

also. I thought I'd point out how, in my last chapter I said "Not exactly sure what I'll be doing... so I may not update this that often" then I went off for five months. LOL. Again - my apologies ._.
