Alex thought for a moment, listening for the ghost and unsure what to do. "I…I think so…"

"Do you want to try to go inside?" Gabe asked. He took Alex's hand again.

Alex nodded a little. "Sure." he replied softly.

Gabe led Alex inside, ready to bring him back out if the salt hadn't worked. Thankfully, the ghost was no where to be seen, or even felt.

Alex didn't see or feel the ghost anywhere, and relaxed a little bit when he didn't see or feel it.

Gabe watched Alex, refacing when he did.
"How are things?" He asked gently.

"Good. Thank you." he said softly, looking up at Gabe.

Gabe smiled.
"That's good! Now, I'm going to make us some dinner."

Alex nodded. "Thank you, Gabe." he said, offering up a tiny smile.

"You're welcome," Gabe said, returning the smile readily. He turned to the stove, humming happily as he cooked. "I'm glad you can finally stay here without fear of any ghosts."

Alex nodded again, sitting down and curling up on himself a little bit. "Me too."

Gabe glaced at Alex, gaze gentle. He finished with the quick meal, bringing it over for Alex.

Alex took his plate with a small, grateful smile. "Thank you, Gabe." he said softly.

"You're welcome," Gabe said, returning the smile again.Alex was smiling a lot more. That was nice. He sat down next to Alex, eating his own food.

Alex picked at his food, again not eating all that much. He tried, though, making a valiant effort to at least eat half his plate.

Gabe looked at Alex. He was trying so hard, it really touched him. He smiled softly, proud of Alex. He knew how hard it could be.

Alex eventually was unable to force himself to eat anymore, and set the plate aside.

"Thank you," Gabe said gently. He truly meant it.

Alex looked up at him, and nodded a little bit.

Gabe finished his food, taking Alex's with him and putting them away.

Alex watched Gabe go, letting out a faint breath.

Gabe came back soon, smiling at Alex.
"There anything you want to do?"

Alex shrugged a little bit. "I don't know." he replied softly.

Gabe sat next to Alex, nodding.
"Figured as much, and that's okay." He gave Alex a tiny smile.

Alex returned the smile cautiously. "Alright."
