Everyone was sat around the dining room table at Mel and Jim's house when Ned's phone started to go off. He took the phone out of his pocket and stood up.

"Sorry I'll just be a minute," he said as he walked into the kitchen. He flipped open his phone and put it to his ear.

"Hey Cassie... Oh it was no problem... No honestly it's fine... Yeah Wednesday sounds great... Yeah that's fine... Okay I'll see you then." As he put the phone he walked back to the table were everyone was staring at him.

"Got another date then?" Jim joked as he sat down.

"No!"

"Who was it then?" asked Delia curiously.

"It was Cassie, but she wasn't asking for another date we were just arranging to go to the library to study..."

"Sure you were..." said Jim

"We were. And anyone she's brining her little sister Ally again."

"So you were just talking about going to the library?" asked Delia staring at Ned trying to see if he was lying or not.

"Yeah and she was just apologising for what happened today that's all."

"What hap...?" Melinda was cut off as she saw the ghost appear in the corner again. She still couldn't see his face but she felt his sorrow and guilt.

"She was happy once," the ghost said sadly.

"Who was?" Melinda asked. Everyone was now staring at her and in the direction of where she was looking.

"She was!" exclaimed the ghost starting to get angry not understanding why Melinda wasn't following his thoughts.

"Who?" she asked once again.

"She was!" he shouted making a few plates crash to the floor. This made everyone jump.

"Mel, what's happening?" Jim asked worriedly. Everyone could see that Mel was concentrating on the corner but whoever or whatever it was, it was making her weaker.

"Please tell me who?" she asked again, she could feel herself getting weaker and weaker.

"It's getting worse! I've got to help her," he said slightly raising his voice.

"Who?"

"HER! I'VE GOT TO HELP HER!" As the ghost shouted Mel felt herself slip off the chair hitting her head lightly on the wall.

"That's just how she feels!" he laughed as he disappeared. Mel felt her eyes close as leaned in closer to the wall.

Mel opened her eyes slowly; she saw Jim, Ned and Delia hovering over her.

"Mel!" Jim said.

"You okay?" asked Ned. She sat up a bit her head throbbing from where she hit it. She nodded her head in response to Ned question as she felt the lump on her head.

"Same ghost from earlier?"

"Yeah" Melinda said quietly.

"You had a ghost earlier?" asked Ned, obviously Ned it had been when he had been out with Cassie, because he always heard about the new ghosts.

"Yeah, he came just after you left with Cassie."

"Who was it?" he asked becoming intrigued.

"I dunno but he keeps saying 'help her'."

"Help who? And with what?"

"No idea."

"So what did you and Cassie get up to today?" asked Delia trying to change the subject. She always hated it when they talked about ghosts, it always freaked her out.

"We talked, had a drink. You know the normal," he said replying to his mum's question. He then turned back to Melinda and carried on talking.

"You think this ghost has something to do with Cassie, because like I said earlier her boyfriend died a few weeks ago."

"I dunno. I don't think so. I haven't seen him but his voice is too deep to be her boyfriend. Has anyone else died recently that you know of?"

"Her mum died about six months ago," said Ned trying to think of other people who had died recently.

"No, it defiantly wasn't a woman's voice I heard."

"I dunno then. No I don't think anyone else died."

Both of them sat in silence on the sofa thinking.

Delia and Jim stood in the doorway listening on the conversation.

"Are you getting any of this because it's just going over my head," Jim joked.

"It's their secret little code; nobody knows what they're on about. I've tried loads of times to work it out but..." Delia sighed. Jim nodded in agreement. They walked over to the table and started gathering the plates and took them into the kitchen ready to be washed.
