"What do you think is wrong with Kelly?" Seth asked Ryan on their way to their lockers. Ryan looked at him, he was worried too, but he didn't know what he was gonna say.

"I don't know" he finally answered as they reached their lockers.

"Do you think she's gonna be ok?" Seth asked. 'Damn it Seth! I don't know anymore than you do!' Ryan thought

"I don't know" he said again and slammed his locker shut. Seth looked up at him.

"What's wrong with you?" he asked and Ryan looked at him

"Just, stop ask me questions about her, I do not know what's wrong, I don't know more than you do" he answered in a tone that sounded angrier than he had expected. Seth looked down, shock by Ryan's attitude against him

"Sorry, I didn't mean for it to come out like that" Ryan said, but he didn't quite mean it, he seriously wanted Seth to stop. Everything had become…different since Kelly came, he wasn't sure what had changed exactly, all he knew it was different.

"Hey guys" Marissa's voice brought him back to reality

"Hey" he said and forced a smile "What's up?" he asked. Marissa looked at him and frowned

"You said you needed a ride home, remember?" she said and looked from Ryan to Seth and then back to Ryan.

"Right, I knew that" he said but he could see Marissa didn't quite believe him.

"Shall we go then?" Seth suggested and started to walk towards the door, Ryan kissed Marissa's cheek and they began to walk in silence after Seth.

Later…

It was dinner time at the Cohen household and the take-out was already ordered. Kelly was sitting on the couch reading a book, Ryan was in the pool-house, he had been there since they came home from school, and Seth was in his room. It was unusually quiet, no music, no videogames was on. Sandy was in his study, taking an important phone call and Kirsten was alone in the kitchen. She didn't like the silence, she wanted to talk to Kelly, but Kelly had made it very clear that she didn't want to talk more today. Finally Sandy came out to her.

"Hey honey" he said and planted a kiss on her forehead. She didn't answer him, just kept staring at her hands, she felt his arms around her waist, but she didn't react. Sandy didn't say anything more; he understood what Kirsten's silence meant. They stood together and watched as their daughter fell asleep.

"She has been through so much, my poor girl" Kirsten whispered.

He never left her. Wherever she went she felt his presence, or saw his ghost. Or it was just a sign that she had gone crazy. It didn't matter if her eyes were closed or open, he was always there to hunt her, remind her of her past.

Kelly had fallen asleep on the couch, and she was dreaming. She was lying on a stone bench and when she sat up and looked around, she noticed she was in a graveyard. She could feel a shiver up her spine as she walked among the gravestones. It was cold, all the trees surrounding the graveyard were dead and the ground were covered in dead leafs.

She kept walking, for some reason she turned left, she hadn't meant to go there, but something forced her to. She stopped in front of a gravestone and gasped when she read the inscription:

Logan Williams

Nothing else was written, not when he was born or when he died, just his name. Her gaze fell on the gravestone next to Logan's and she read the inscription:

Kelly Cohen

Dead 15 December 2003

Today's date. No, this can't be right, what the hell is going on?

She spun around and looked at the big gravestone behind her

Sandy and Kirsten Cohen

Dead 15 December 2003

No, not my parents! This is not right! They are not dead, me neither, it's just Logan who's dead. Just as she thought that she could hear his voice, loud and clear, in her head.

That's right. I'm dead. You killed me Kelly, and now, you are gonna have to pay for it!

Then she felt a pain, a pain so strong she collapsed onto the ground. Her hands were clasped to her chest as she screamed, she felt something running down her back and she knew it was blood from the cut that had opened up again. Soon there was blood everywhere; even the ground was covered in her blood. She screamed one last time before the darkness took her. She knew she was going to die.

"Kelly! Wake up sweetie, wake up!"

Kelly opened her eyes only to see her mom standing over her with a worried expression on her face; Sandy was behind her, looking terrified. She noticed she was lying on the floor; but she had no idea where she was or what had happened, all she could think about was the graveyard, and that she was supposed to be dead, but she didn't feel dead… she sat up and leaned against the couch

"Am…am I alive?" she asked and looked from Sandy to Kirsten.

"Of course you are! Why wouldn't you be?" Kirsten said and reached out with her hand to touch her face, but Kelly immediately turned her face away from the hand. Hot tears threatened to escape from her eyes.

"Kelly, what's wrong sweetie?" Kirsten asked, shocked that Kelly wouldn't let her touch her.

"I don't know" she whispered as a single tear found its way down her cheek. She shook her head. "It's nothing, I just need to be alone right now" she got to her feet but when she tried to walk away, Sandy grabbed her arm.

"Kelly, please talk to us, we're here to help you" he begged, she saw in his eyes he was afraid of her behaviour, but so was she, and she didn't know what to say anymore. So instead of admitting she was scared, she snapped at him.

"I'm done talking; now let me go before I get mad"

Sandy obeyed and she quickly took off to her room. Kirsten was shaking where she sat on the floor. Sandy sat down on the couch next to her and she leaned her head against his legs. They sat like that for a few minutes, just trying to understand what could have happened. All of a sudden Seth came into the kitchen, looking for his parents.

"Mom, dad" he said and Sandy turned his head towards his son.

"Over here, Seth" he said and Seth went over to them. He saw his mom sitting on the floor and sat down beside her. Kirsten wrapped her arm around her son's shoulders.

"Mom, what's wrong with Kelly?" he asked but Sandy answered.

"We don't really know, cause she won't talk to us."

"Does it have anything to do with Logan?" Seth asked and he understood from the look Kirsten gave Sandy that that was the case.

"Yes" his mom answered "It's good that you care about your sister, we have to support her in any way we can now"

"I just want her to be like she was… you know, before the rape"

"Well, don't we all?" Sandy sighed.

Kelly was now sitting on the stairs, listening to the conversation. She felt extremely guilty putting her family through this, but she couldn't forget. She quickly got up and walked quietly to her room, she closed the door and when she turned around she saw him. Logan was standing in her room and with an evil smile he started to walk towards her. She backed until she stood against the door; she had nowhere to go…she was trapped. Kelly screamed loud enough for everyone down stairs to hear her. She heard them running up the stairs; she hadn't meant to scream so loud!

Logan's ghost disappeared, and the next second the door opened and Kelly fell backwards right into her father's arms. He turned her around so she was facing him.

"Are you ok?" he asked, but Kelly just started at him, she freed herself from his arms and turned around and started at the spot where Logan had just been standing. Kirsten stood behind Sandy and next to her was Seth.

Kirsten walked forward and put her hand on her daughter's shoulder, this time Kelly didn't move away, she started to cry silently instead.

"What are you looking at?" Kirsten whispered in her ear. Kelly closed her eyes when she heard the soft voice.

"I don't want to talk about it" she heard herself saying. She wanted to tell the truth, but she didn't dare, she was afraid they'd think she was crazy.

"We can't help you if you don't tell us what's wrong" Sandy tried.

'I know that, but are you sure you are going to believe me, or will you think I'm out of my mind? I can't take that risk' Kelly thought.

"I can't. Maybe later" she said and turned around to face her family.

"Kel, come on. Talk to them, we're all worried about you here" Seth said and Kelly looked into his eyes. Seth noticed his sister's skin was extremely pale, paler than usual, her normally so cheerful and sparkling eyes were empty.

"Please leave me alone" she said and backed into her room with her eyes closed to prevent the tears from escaping. She heard the soft sound of a door closing, and thinking that they were finally gone, she let her tears run down her face. Her eyes were still closed.

She stood in the middle of her room, crying, when she felt something touch her shoulder.

'No, not again!' she thought as she opened her eyes only to see her mother stand there.

"I'm sorry, did I scare you?" Kirsten whispered and Kelly nodded her head. She couldn't lie to her mom, the only person she could tell secrets to, the only one who would believe her.

"Come here and sit down" Kirsten said and led her to the bed where they both sat down next to each other.

"It's just you and me now. Can you talk to me?" she said, hoping she could. Seth and Sandy had left the room so they could talk in private; they figured Kelly would feel safer then.

"Okay, but…don't think I'm crazy, I'm not, this is just what I see!" Kelly rambled

"What do you see?" Kirsten asked anxiously.

"Logan, his ghost. He…he was here, right before you came. He was walking towards me…he was going to kill me"

She didn't know why she said that last part, he hadn't done anything that showed he was going to kill her, but she just knew that that had been his intension.

"It was just an illusion, he wasn't real." Kirsten said, it felt natural to tell your child ghost didn't exist. Kirsten herself didn't believe in ghosts. She couldn't help thinking maybe Kelly wasn't…well.

"It was not the first time"

You don't think I am crazy do you? Well, please leave a review. And btw, I'm only a little crazy… 
