Hey guys thanks for the fantastic reviews. So here is Chapter 2, Anything that Jay is watching is in italics...hope you like it!

Jay alarm clock woke him up he looked at it 1:00 am, he rolled over and seen Mr. Ratich sitting on the desk chair. Jumping out of bed he yelled.

"Ratich what the hell are you doing in my house."

"I am not Mr. Ratich" he answered in a whisper

"Then who…what are you"

"I am the ghost of Christmas past."

"What past" he asked confused

"Your with me its time to go." Jay stood there, he couldn't move even if he wanted to the ghost made his way toward him and took his hand and lead him out the window. They walked down a long empty road and finally made it to their destination. Jay looked around. They stood in front of a small white house.

"This is…I use to live here."

"Yes come on." The ghost motion toward the door, Jay followed him into the door. The house was warm and cozy. There was a huge tree and young boy and girl decorating it.

"Darcy, Jason" his mother called from the kitchen appearing through in the doorway with a tray of cookies the two kids ran to her.

"We were so happy everything was perfect." He told the ghost. He turn around as the door flew open and his father walked through the door, he was angry.

"Paula what the hell is going on in here, why aren't these kids asleep." He screamed

"It's only 5:00" she responded timidly

"What are you answering me back" he raised his arm to hit her and Jay ran in the middle of them.

"They can't see you; this is only a shadow of things that already happened you can't stop him." The ghost explained. Jay moved out of the way and watched his dad hit his mom.

"Can we go? I don't want to see anymore" Jay asked the ghost as a tear rolled down his cheek.

"You have to watch." The ghost told him

His father then went to the tree and knocked it on the floor and kicked it. Jay noticed that they younger version of him was curled up under the table protecting Darcy while tears streamed down his face.

"That was the last time we ever had Christmas." The ghost motioned his hand for them to leave. They walked back down the deserted road and made their way to the ravine. Jay's Civic was parked in the middle of the snow. He and the ghost made their way in front of the car. Jay watched as he placed a gold locket around Alex's neck.

"Last Christmas, I had to steal 3 DVD players to afford that…but it was worth it. I never had seen Alex so happy. But she knew all I could think about was E-" he stopped himself and turned to the ghost. "I know what happens next I really don't want to watch anymore."

"You must."

"No take me home." Jay begged but the ghost still refused. He watched as he and Alex got into an argument. She got out of the car and walked toward the street. Jay ran after her and tried to calm her down but she wouldn't listen to him and then he grabbed shoulder she began to yell at him, he now had both hands on her shoulders.He pleaded with her, while she struggled to get away from him. He finally pushed her back hard and she fell into the snow. He took a large step backward and buried his head in his hands.

"She didn't talk to me for a month…she made me so angry, I dint even mean topush her…I'll never be like him. Take me back." He yelled, the ghost finally agreed.
