“So what do you think?” I say, plucking bits of grass and tossing them into the pond. Half the pieces float off on the wind. “Ghost or no ghost?”622Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfsvwv15q5

Will watches me with his arms crossed over his chest. “A lot of people here see ghosts.”622Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CT3wi75fv

He shrugs and smiles down at me. The sun striking the back of his head should cast his face in shadow, but instead it halos around him. “I’ve never seen one, but does that mean they don’t exist?”622Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZAj2rkYhw

I throw a handful of grass at him, but the wind changes direction, flinging the blades back into my face and mouth. I sputter and spit them out, scrubbing my hands over my face while Will doubles over with laughter. When I glare at him, he reaches out and brushes grass out of my hair, still looking amused.622Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbhLa6seCD

I breathe in the marshy scent of the pond and stretch my feet out to let my bare toes trail into the water. Reeds hide us from the rest of the school so we could possibly be in our own world. It’s a warm enough day that I don’t even need my jumper. These are the moments I love best. These are the moments I live for.622Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtVWdLPS6T

It reminds me, yet again, that Will is leaving. We’ve spent so much time together over the past couple of years, held hands. And yet he’s never made it official.622Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyv2lzTHIn

I can’t be shy, though. If I hesitate now, I’ll never see him after he graduates. I don’t even know where he wants to go for uni.622Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdUR1DQW29
