The creature grinned wider and then walked to my bed while becoming more visible. And as it sat down to the bed, it's lines were already completely visible, but there were no other details except it's lips and eyes.
"Why should I stop..? I told you that I could scare you away if I wanted to, didn't I..? But you didn't believe me, so now I decided to prove that I'm right.. And besides, that was fun.." The creature said with a grin.
"You think scaring people is fun?" I asked, raising one eyebrow questioningly.
"Yes.. And I'm a ghost, so I'm supposed to scare people, right..?" The creature smiled.
"Yep. Wait a sec.. So, you're a ghost?" I then asked as I sat up.
"Yes.. I am.."
"Okay. I have one question, but you don't have to answer it if you don't want to."
"Ask away.." The creature smiled kindly.
"Okay.. So, if you're a ghost, then how did you die? What happened to you and when did it happen?"
"That's a long story.. I'll tell it to you later.. I'm gonna go out for a while.. I'll see you later.." The creature said and then just disappeared. And soon, the door opened and closed as the creature left to go outside. I then got up from the bed and went to find something to wear.
And after a while, as I walked downstairs and switched the coffee machine on, I heard the back door open and soon today's paper came floating towards me with a bit of smoke around it.
"I brought you today's paper.. And you're gonna get a visitor.." The creature then said and dropped the paper to the kitchen table.
"Visitor? Oh, right! I invited Tommy over. You be nice while he's here. So, in other words, stay hidden. No opening doors either." I said sternly.
"Fine.. You're boring.." It said and glared at me before vanishing into the air and going somewhere to wait for Tommy to leave. Or so I thought.
Because only after a while of coming there, Tommy had to go use the bathroom. And when he came back, his eyes were wide. Like he had seen a ghost. Which was actually most likely true.
"There was someone there.." He said, sounding very scared.
"Where?" I asked, mentally cursing at the ghost.
"In the bathroom.. I saw it on the mirror. It was right behind me." Tommy explained while still shaking a little bit.
"Okay. I'll go and see if I can see it. You just wait here." I said and patted Tommy's back before then walking into the bathroom and switching the lights on.
"Come here, you little bastard." I said angrily as I closed the door behind me. I knew the ghost would hear me.
And soon enough, it appeared right in front of me as a smoke cloud. "Yes..?" His voice echoed in the bathroom.
"What did I tell you about staying hidden?" I growled and glared at him.
"You killjoy.. I was just having some fun.." The ghost said while starting to fade away again. "But fine.. I will stay out of the way.." He said, the rest of his sentence sounding distant, since he had already disappeared from his spot in front of me.
I sighed and then walked back into the living room where I had left Tommy.
