I tried to process the events of last night. That was a dream, right? Izzy's not alive...or is she? Ugh, I'm so confused. I walked into her room and froze in confusion. All of her toys were scattered around her room like she used to leave them.
"Oh, my God..." I whispered to myself.
I saw Beary was on the floor and I quickly picked him up. I examined him but everything seemed fine. What the hell. I suddenly got this chill down my spine, making me drop Beary back on the ground.
"Oh, sorry..." I mumbled.
Why am I talking to a stuffed bear? I'm going insane. I set him back on her bed and started putting all of her toys away. They all seemed normal. Maybe my mom put them out as like...a memorial or something? I don't know, she does crazy things when she's upset.
"Bubba?" Izzy's voice suddenly echoed behind me.
I quickly spun around but didn't see anyone. I'm going crazy. What the hell is happening? I hesitantly picked up another one of her toys and suddenly saw another one fall on its own. I gasped and immediately dropped the toy I was holding. I stood up on my shaky legs and held my hands up in the air in defense.
"Amelia..." I whimpered. "This isn't funny."
I backed up onto the wall and tried to control my heavy breathing. I kept my wide eyes on her toys but nothing else happened.
"Amelia, stop messing with me." I begged. "This isn't funny, trust me."
I heard a giggle beside me, making my head snap in that direction. Nothing. I swear I heard it.
"Amelia." I groaned. "Come on, this isn't funny."
As I slowly looked around, I swear I saw a shadow run beside me. I quickly ran out of there and ran into my mom in the hallway.
"Mom!" I breathed in disbelief.
"What?" She questioned.
"Izzy..." I couldn't even form a sentence I was so confused.
"What's wrong?"
"I-I swear Izzy's ghost is haunting me o-or something." I panted.
She snickered. "You sound ridiculous. She's not haunting you."
"B-but she was in Amelia's room last night."
Her eyebrow raised in confusion. "Really? What was she doing?"
I gasped for words. "I woke up to her voice saying something a-and then the lights turned on and then-"
"Okay, okay, okay," She quickly stopped me. "Let's just chill for a second. There's no way she was in Amelia's room last night."
I nodded frantically. "She was! She was talking to me b-but she looked dead!"
"Because she is dead, honey." She sighed. "Are you feeling alright?"
I sighed softly in disbelief. "Yes, I'm fine b-but Izzy is here!"
"Luis." She stared at me. "Do you hear yourself right now?"
"I know, I sound insane, but I'm serious! She was playing with her toys just now!" I stated.
"Oh, my goodness..." She whispered. "Show me then."
She followed me to Izzy's room, but all the toys that were on the ground were now picked up and put back in their designated spots.
"There's nothing here." She sighed.
My head shook in disbelief. "N-no you don't understand! All of her toys were just scattered around as she would always leave them!"
She stared at me like I was a talking dog. "Luis, I promise she's not haunting you, okay? Why don't you get some rest?"
"But-" I sighed but she quickly cut me off.
"Ah, ah, ah," She shushed. "Go get some rest, alright? And cut off this whole "ghost" thing, it's weird."
I gasped slightly and watched her walk away. Ugh, why doesn't she ever believe me? I swear Izzy's here! Fuck this.

point of view.
Luis blabbered on about this whole Izzy thing. He sounded insane, but I listened to him. A sigh escaped my mouth as I rested my head in my hand.
"So, therefore, she's haunting me." He stated.
"Mhm..." I hummed quietly in boredom.
"Amelia!" He groaned. "Are you even listening to me?"
I snapped out of my gaze. "Huh? Oh, y-yeah, sorry, I'm just trying to process this..."
He sighed and continued pacing around my room. "I mean, there's no way she could've put all of her toys out. I didn't do it and my mom didn't do it."
"Yeah..." I sighed softly.
"A-and you didn't do it, so...it was Izzy."
A small sigh escaped my mouth. "But how? You know she's dead."
"Yeah, I know, but what if it's her ghost?" He stood in front of me.
I stared at him. "Luis, do you hear yourself right now? You sound insane."
"I know I do, but I'm serious." He sighed. "I feel like she's trying to tell me something, but she's struggling."
"Didn't she ask you to play last night?" I questioned.
He nodded. "Yes, she did, but it was weird...her voice started getting deformed and her face was turning into..." He sighed. "I can't even describe it, but I feel like she's not in a good spot right now."
"Well, she's dead." I shrugged. "That's not the best position to be in."
He huffed. "Yeah, I know. What if she's being haunted by, like...A demon or something?"
"Maybe..." I hummed. "But I still think you're overthinking all of this."
He sighed and plopped next to me. "Maybe I am..."
I rubbed his back lightly. "I'm glad you're looking out for her."
His head shook slightly. "Yeah, but...something about last night didn't feel right."
"How so?" I asked.
"Well, as I said, her face and voice were getting weird, but she was desperate to play with me..." He stated. "Could that mean anything?"
I shrugged. "I think it means that you need sleep."
He huffed in annoyance. "I know, I know..."
"You just miss her a lot." I rubbed his arm. "That's probably why you keep thinking about these things, right?"
His shoulders shrugged. "I don't know but something about last night just doesn't feel right to me..."
I sighed softly. "Let's get some sleep, okay?"
"Okay..." He sounded annoyed but didn't try to resist.
I kissed his cheek lightly and laid my head down on my pillow. Hopefully, he's not going insane...
