There's A Ghost In This Room

Everything is falling perfectly into place.
I finally had Alex, and he’s honestly the best thing that’s ever happened to me.
I now had a reason to wake up in the morning. It wasn’t the same dreadful feeling as before.
I was happy to open my eyes and come face to face with my adorable, sleeping boyfriend.
I bit my lip and smiled, leaning in to kiss his nose.
“Leeexx.”
He mumbled something incoherent and kept his eyes closed.
That’s when I rolled my eyes and flicked his nose.
“Lex wake up!”
He’s eyes shot open, and he looked at me; not looking the least bit of tired. Not that he’s supposed to be tired; after all, he is a ghost.
“Ugh.. Why do you even sleep when you don’t have to?” I looked at him in confusion.
“Sleeping is fun.” He shrugged in response.
“Do you even have dreams?”
“Uhuh..” He nodded.
“Well.. What did you dream about?” I asked out of curiosity.
“You.” He smirked, causing my cheeks to turn red.
“No but seriously.. What?”
“You.” He repeated, flashing his signature goofy grin at me. “You’re all I dream about.”
If my cheeks weren’t red before, they most definitely were now.
“Cheesy.” I looked down in attempt to hide my cheeks, but it was no use with his empathy powers.
“But you loved it though.” He kept the knowing smirk on his face.
“Yeah, maybe I did.” I smiled at him a little.
“And maybe you love me too..” He grinned, cupping my cheek and stroking it with his thumb.
I only turned more red and started giggling.
“I guess..”
He chuckled a bit and leaned in to press his lips to mine.
I kissed him back instantly, loving the feeling of his soft lips more than anything.
He pulled away after a moment and smiled at me. I just couldn’t stop blushing and I quickly sat up.
“Um.. I need to get ready.” I rushed out, completely flustered.
He just shrugged and smirked, continuing to lay in my bed.
“Alright.”
I got up and quickly walked into the bathroom, shutting the door and holding in my squeals.
I looked up at myself in the mirror and noticed how hard I was smiling. I loved Alex. I loved him so much.
I soon got in the shower; my thoughts filled with the beautiful boy laying in my bed.

I soon got out of the shower and walked back into my bedroom, seeing Alex sitting on the bed but with a different outfit on and his hair was fixed.
Man, I wish I had that power.
“Um.. Can you leave? I have to get dressed..” I awkwardly requested, holding the towel up around my chest.
“Why? It’s not like I haven’t seen you naked before..” He shrugged.
“Yeah but- wait what?!” I stared at him in shock.
“Uhh.. Well.. I do have the power of invisibility..” He played with his fingers a bit nervously.
Oh. My. God.
“ALEX!!” I walked over and smacked his arm.
“Ow.. What?!”
“You can’t just do that you fucking perv! You peep on me?!” I was bright red at this point.
“Okay it was only like two times and one of them was when I was like twelve so..”
“But still! Oh my god, get out get out get out!” I quickly shooed him out of my room as he held his hands up in surrender, backing out of the door.
“And don’t pop back in here either!” I shut the door and locked it, turning to get dressed.
If he was back in the room watching me right now, I was so gonna kill him.. Again.

I walked out of the room once I was finished getting ready, with my hair up in a ponytail like he likes it.
He smiled at me, obviously noticing my choice of hairstyle.
“You ready to go?”
“Uhuh!” I nodded and smiled, taking his hand when he offered it.
My mom wasn’t home this morning so it wasn’t a big deal for him to be here.
We got into my car and I proceeded to drive us to school.
“Hmm.. We should stop at Starbucks or something. You didn’t eat anything and I want coffee.”
I giggled at his explanation.
“You don’t need coffee Alex!”
“You don’t tell me what I need!” He stuck his tongue out at me and chuckled.
I rolled my eyes and gave in, driving to Starbucks, where we both ended up getting muffins and cappuccinos.

Once we got to the school, we still had twenty minutes left before class, so we were strolling aimlessly through the halls together.
I took a sip of my cappuccino, as he swung our interlocked hands back and forth.
“Mmm.. You know what I love more than coffee?”
“Being a peeping Tom?” I shot him a little glare.
“Come onnn.. Why are you still mad at me over that?”
“Because it’s gross! Even if you are a ghost.” I sipped some more of my drink.
He sighed deeply and stopped walking, pulling me closer to him by my waist.
“You know what I love more than coffee? You.” He leaned down to kiss my nose.
I felt my cheeks heat up for the thousandth time that day, and I attempted to bite back a smile.
“And I’m really really really sorry for peeping. It’s wrong and gross and I’m a huge idiot and I honestly feel really bad about it because it isn’t okay.” He apologized, nervously chewing on his bottom lip, causing him to look a bit more sexy than apologetic.
I sighed and smiled at him, wrapping my free arm around his neck.
“I love you asshole.” I leaned up on my tippy toes to give him a kiss.
He smiled at me and pulled me even closer to him.
“I love you too, gorgeous.”

We continued walking together until the bell rang, and he took me to my class, giving me a goodbye kiss when we got there.
The rest of the day went on like this until lunchtime, and we were back to walking around, holding hands. Jack was walking on the other side of me, listening to whatever we were talking about.
“Yeah he’s a pretty cool teacher, he lets us drink whatever we want in class besides alcohol. And that’s pretty cool you know, since we’re only supposed to drink water.” Alex informed us about how cool his 2nd period teacher was.
“I wish..” I agreed with how cool it was.
“Yeah, the only downside is that it’s one person at a time for bathroom.” He chuckled, making us laugh along with him.
Jack looked up at something from a distance and nudged my arm with his elbow.
“Bitch squad, 2 o’clock.”
We both looked up in that direction, stopping when we saw Ashlynn, Jenna, Zack, and Brendon walking towards us.
One look towards our interlocked fingers, and Ashlynn was furious.
“So that’s it huh? You’re just gonna leave me for worthless trash?” She snapped at Alex.
Now she was just gonna break me down with her words like always.
I settled for awkwardly staring down at my feet. I didn’t want anyone to see how much it actually hurt.
“Oh what? I thought I left trash for treasure.” He glared back at her, squeezing my hand tighter.
“You know what? She’s ugly and boring so I’m not really worried about it. You’ll be back.” She smirked, crossing her arms. Jenna mimicked her movements as always.
“But hopefully he won’t, since you deserve better than assholes with low standards.” Zack joined in, wrapping his arm around Ashlynn’s shoulders.
This was just getting better and better.
“Wow, you really are a bitch. I don’t know how I didn’t see it before. You and I were a fucking mistake, Ashlynn. My girlfriend is smart and beautiful and sweet and you’re an evil, cheating bitch!” He blew up in her face, and I’m pretty sure I saw a bit of hurt flash across her eyes.
“And you..” He turned to Zack.
“You can have her now. She’s all yours. Bethany is all I need. You come anywhere near her or Jack and I’ll break your damn legs.” He gave him a death glare, then pushed past him, pulling me along with him. Jack followed close beside me.
Alex still had a really tight grip on my hand and I could tell he was struggling to stay calm.
“Alex.. Alex it’s okay.”
“No it’s not fucking okay! The way they were just insulting you like you weren’t even there! You don’t deserve that shit!” His breaths started to come out in huffs, and I knew he needed to calm down quick.
I stopped walking and grabbed his arms, leaning up to kiss him. He soon returned the kiss, resting his hands on my hips.
I pulled away after a moment, biting my lip.
“I’m okay. Thank you. I love you.” I pulled him into a hug.
He returned the hug, rubbing my back.
“I love you too.. I won’t let anybody hurt you again..”
I smiled into his neck, hugging him tighter.
“You guys are so cute.” Jack commented, smiling at us as we pulled apart.
We both smiled and looked at each other.
“She’s the cutest girl I’ve ever seen.” Alex scanned his eyes over my face, smiling at me.
I swear.. with him, I don’t think I’ll ever stop blushing.
