Alex was bored; now that she had Hal back she didn't know what to do. Tom had been very vague over the events of last night and now Hal tom and Christa were all at work. Her original plan was to go get Hal's stuff back while he was out. Then she realised she had no-idea where his stuff was. She practiced her piano skills. Alex knew she had improved since she had moved into the house but she could only improve so far. Hal had been her tutor before he had become lost within the monster.
After half an hour of practice Alex was bored with the piano so she decided to clean up. Neither Christa nor Tom were excessively clean and thus without Hal mess piled up. After doing all the washing up, Alex decided to make the beds. It was something she used to do for her brothers. Tom and Hal had always been thankful when she did this. Christa was still so thankful to have somewhere to live at all she had accepted the ghost's peculiar habit. Alex then stripped the bedding that was Toms. Partially hoping to see any sign of the woman who had spent the night but the room left no indication. So she simply put on the fresh bedding. Then Alex stripped the bedding on Christa bed. Christa's bed seemed to be barely slept in. Alex guessed Christa was more organised than she had given credit for. All the same Alex replaced the bedding. Then came the important task. She had to make Hals bed. She wanted to make his first night here good. After all she had truly missed him. She made sure to give him the black bedding she had known he liked most. The Alex washed the bedding she had removed.
Once these task were done, Alex was bored again. She wanted something to do but she couldn't think of anything. She sat down and watched the local news. Very little appeared to be happening, Alex was left with her thoughts of recent days. She had got Hal back and the cost Tom paid seemed to be surprising low. After all Allison had just broken up with him so a one night stand was exactly what Tom needed. Someday she knew Tom would know this. Alex realised it might be a good idea to go see Allison at some point. After when you are dead how many people are there to talk to? Plus she may have handled her break up with Tom badly but she hadn't been in relationship with Tom technically. Alex resolved to go see her as soon as she felt Tom could take it. Alex then though of the deal that bad Hal had made with Thorn. Even her Hal didn't know what bad Hal would want more than carnage and destruction. This worried her.
Alex didn't know what to do then suddenly Alex felt like there was a presence watching her. She turned around but saw nothing. Was she going crazy? Alex had only ever felt like this in the house once before. And that was when the ghost child had been there. Maybe she had become paranoid. Perhaps she should go to the Hotel. She was cracking up.
Little did she know she really was being watched. A figure in grey was there invisible to even Alex.
