Michael's POV
I'm outside. How did I get outside? Wait a minute, I know this house. This is Debbie's house. I didn't want to go inside because if I do I would be invading her property. But something told me to. So I went with my instinct.

I opened the door and took a look around. This house still looks the same as when I last saw it. That brown marble table still has that dent. I can't tell you how it got there. The living room still has that old couch with holes in it. To be honest, this house looks abandoned.

The tv was on but nobody was watching. Then I remembered Paris and Blanket were staying here. Man how I miss seeing their face. They have to be around here somewhere. I slowly went up the stairs, trying not to make a noise. Wait a minute, I'm a ghost. I can't make a sound. I simply just float up the stairs.

I reached the top. There were four doors. I opened the first one which was the restroom. The light was off so I closed the door. I opened the second one which happened to be Debbie's room. But no one was in there. That and the room smelled horrible so I quickly closed the door. Then I opened the third door. I was expecting to see Blanket playing on his computer, but instead he was sleeping. Wow, it was only 8:30. So I closed the door quietly. Careful not to wake him. Finally I opened the last door which was Paris' room. She was asleep too!! Paris is a heavy sleeper, unlike Blanket. So I went in knowing I wouldn't wake her up. Blanket on the other hand, a feather dropping to the floor could wake him up.

I sat on her bed looking at my little girl. At least she's not my little girl anymore. She's so grown. Hard to believe she's fourteen years old. Just because I'm dead doesn't mean I don't know how old my kids are. She's just so beautiful. To think that fourteen years ago I was only holding her in ny arms. It seems like it was yesterday.

I was so deep in thought that I didn't even realize Paris has woken up.

Paris' POV
That was the best dream I ever had. I had just woken up and swa that my door was open. I don't remember leaving it open. I got up from my bed to close it. Just as I was walking back, I saw someone sitting on my bed. But not just any old someone, it was my Dad.

But that couldn't be. My dad died three years ago. My mind was telling me not to run to him. He's only a figment of my imagination. But my body was telling me otherwise. Before I knew what I was doing, I ran to him and gave him a big hug. He simply just closed his arms around me.

"Dad, h-how could you be here? I thought you were dead."
"It's a long story."
"I have time."
"Haha. I honestly don't know. One minute I was in heaven, next minute, I'm outside."
"Oh. Well are you here to stay?"
"To be honest, I really don't know how long I'll be here, but I promise I will spend time with you and Blanket."
"Aww man. Prince is coming over tomorrow."
"Don't worry about it. I'm pretty sure he'll be happy to see his old man."
"Yeah. I guess you're right."

"Now it's your turn."
"What do you mean?"
"Why are you two alone in the house at this time of night?"
"I can't lie to you dad, I have absolutely no idea where mom is. She hasn't been here for a week. But , we have Paul and he's been taking good care of us."
"When I see your mom..."
"Dad. Don't worry. I'm not mad. I'm just disappointed. But I've been helping Paul take care of Blanket."
"That's my girl."

Just then Blanket walked in.

"Paris, who are you talking-Dad!!!!"Blanket then jumped into Dad's arms. Dad just stood there laughing.

"Hey little buddy, I missed you."
"I missed you too!! How are you here? I thought you died."
"I honestly don't know. I really don't know how long I'm gonna be here but I promise to spend every minute with you, your sister, and your brother."
"Yayyyy!!!!"
"Ok. Little buddy go back to sleep. I'll see you in the morning."
"Ok. Goodnight, love you."
"Love you more."
With that Blanket walked out the door and into his room.

"Now you young lady," be said looking at me, "you go back to sleep, and I'll see you in the morning. Now goodnight."
He then gave me a kiss on the cheek.
"Goodnight. Love you too."

Michael's POV
After I said goodnight to Paris and Blanket, I went downstairs and watched tv and fell asleep.
