“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?”747Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wc7MBBnir

Will watches me with his arms crossed over his chest. “A lot of people here see ghosts.”747Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFezHolbt0w

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?”747Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNDGi3g6KT

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.747Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHk4ZXb6OQG

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.747Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMgm4u16Rg

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.747Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntIup8xXJg

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.747Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZkHDWBrGH
