I Wanna Be Your Lost Boy (Jalex)

Alex's POV

It's been about a day since I've arrive here in Bamesville. I've done some more research on this so called Lost Boy ghost, and I also have been asking around. People have explained to me that the ghost is from a boy named Jack Barakat, a sixteen year old who died about one hundred years back. Why? Because he was gay. His parents didn't accept him along with many other people, so they killed him. Slashed him at the throat and left him to bleed to death. Quite gruesome if you ask me, but tonight I plan on having my first encounter with him.

It's currently 10 pm as I approach the old abandoned house. The windows were slightly creaked open, and the house itself gave off an eerie feeling. I'm not scared though, I've dealt with worse.

I walk into the house, floor board squeaking under my weight. "Jack? Jack Barakat?" I call out in the seemingly empty house. I start to hear sniffling from what seems to come from the room next to me, "Go a-a-away." the voice said. I looked in the room to see a boy around my age tears running down his face. I noticed that he wasn't touching the ground; he was hovering. "I'm Alex, are you Jack?" I asked cautiously holding my blade tightly ready to attack if need be. "Yeah, I suggest you get out of here." he replied looking up to meet my eyes. I must say, he was one of the most beautiful people I've ever seen.

"I've heard about your story, I'm a ghost hunter, and I'm going to help you move on." I explained, "If it makes a difference, I'm gay too.". Jack looked up with me with big puppy dog eyes, "Really?" he asked quietly as I nodded in reply. "Do your parents hate you too?", "No, my mother accepts me as for my dad, he's dead. I'm sorry you had to go through that, nobody deserves parents like that." I said as Jack moved toward me and gave me a hug. "Look Jack, I have to go before my mom starts to worry. I'll be back tomorrow, okay?" I said heading to the door. "Okay, hopefully we can learn more about each other." he replied watching as I left his house and headed back to where I was staying.
