I sit down heavily on steps up to Hogwarts.
Well, the ghost equivalent of sitting.
I might blow away... I think to myself, then snort with sarcastic laughter.
The ghost that blew away.
Cos that's you Jo.
You're a ghost.
You're dead.
And it's so not okay.

Angel walks around the grounds. She see's someone sitting there but then realises... it's a GHOST! She slowly starts walking towards her.

I make to pick up a leaf from the floor next to me but my hand sinks straight into the ground.
I let out a little frustrated groan, pushing my hair back off my forehead.
At least I could still do that.
I hated this.
Being dead...sucked.

"Hey," Angel whispered. For some reason she didn't feel scared.

I jump, looking behind me. "Hey," I say quietly.

"Must suck, being dead," Angel said, sitting down next to her. "I'm Angel by the way."

I hold out my hand, then falter and lower it again. "I'm Jo. Well, I was Jo anyway."

"You're still Jo," Angel smiled. "Same old person just different body. Or no body..."

"Wouldn't it be funny if the wind picked up and I just...blew away?" I say, not laughing at all. "Maybe I'd just keep blowing and-...wouldn't have to be here anymore. I wouldn't mind if I was...just dead. Being just dead was the plan. But I'm here, and I can't hug my friends, I can't play quidditch anymore, my boyfriend's completely fallen apart and there's nothing I can do to help him out...I just...uh."

"Who's your boyfriend?" Angel asked quietly. "And, if you don't mind me asking, how did you die?"

"My boyfriend's name was Mika. He's a Ravenclaw." I sigh. "How did I die?" I repeat, then frown, "How did I die?"
I pause, thinking.
How did I actually die?
"I can't-...I don't-..." I start to say, then it clicks into place, "Avada Kedrava. I was-...I was murdered."

"I don't believe I've met Mika," Angel smiled sadly. "Who murdered you?"

"He did. Him. The dark lord...he killed me...because...I was angry...and I was shouting...and he lied to me...he told me...I can't remember...but he lied to me and I was angry and he said I could either do what he told me, sacrifice my life willingly, or-...or something else, I could eliminate a threat-...I could trade Mika's life for mine...and I don't really remember what I said...but there was a lot of green...and then I woke up and went down to the great hall and someone walked straight through me..." I trail off.

"Wow, didn't they see you?" Angel asked. "You gave up your life for Mika's?"

"I don't think they were looking where they were going." I sigh. "And yes, I did. I couldn't just-...if I'd agreed it would have been-...he would have died for my mistakes...that's not right."

"I would have done the same thing," Angel smiled.

"I almost regret it. I'm glad he's still around...but I wish I was too." I sigh.

"I can't touch...I can't feel...and I don't want to unsettle him even more. When he found out...what had happened...he went storming into HQ and started yelling, which is practically suicide. And he tried jumping off the astronomy tower, which is suicide. If I turn up...I don't know what will happen."

"I see," Angel nodded sadly. "I'll look out for him for you if you want?"

"Not really." I shrug. "So, are you new around here? I never saw you around before."

"Yep! Got transfered for dying my hair pink and refusing to change it. It's back to normal now though," Angel sighed.

"I should have done that." I smile, flciking a lock of my dark red hair, not that anyone could tell the colour anymore, seeing as it was the same eerie colour as the rest of me. "That would have been cool. Wouldn't have thought they'd kick you out for it though."

"It was a very strict school. Either black hair or red hair, no blond or other colors, and if you didn't have your skirt longer than your knees you'd get detention for 3 weeks!" Angel laughed.

"I'd be in detention for life. Anything strict...I cannot handle." I laugh. "So what house are you in?"

"Hufflepuff," Angel groaned. "What house were you in?"

"Gryffindor." I smile proudly, "Quidditch Captain and Keeper. God, I miss playing that game. One of the best things in my life. You don't sound so happy about the Hufflepuff thing." I note.

"I feel like I don't belong there. I love to mess about and play pranks, I'm a bit of a rebel and I'm not shy. I'm the odd one out, apart from Taya," she sighed. "I can't play Quidditch to save my life."
