Serenity's P.O.V Elena smiled as Gerard and Mikey stared in shock. "Serenity actually convinced Mirror to let me reside here, in her home." Elena told them. Gerard looked at me in shock. I blushed. "I...err...kinda admired Elena." I admitted. "Serenity deserved to have her wish." Mirror added. "After Elena's unfortunate passing, Serenity begged I let her stay here when she arrived." "Ghosts take time to reach Mirror." I explained. "They watch over their loved one's for a while. They only leave when they feel they don't need to any more. Then they wonder around until they realize there's something calling out to them. Sometimes another loved one. Sometimes Mirror." "I only arrived a few weeks ago." Elena added. "That's one of the reasons I came to find you." I admitted. Elena walked towards me. I smiled as she stopped beside me. "I knew you loved my grandson as soon as I met you." She said, smiling at me. I blushed and looked at Gerard. He smiled as he grabbed my hands. "How long have you loved me?" He asked. I bowed my head. "Since I first saw you. You was ten." He lifted my chin. "You've been watching me that long?" I bit my bottom lip. "Yes." "Behave yourself, Gerard." Elena chastised. "Your embarrassing the poor girl." He laughed as he pulled me into his arms. "You don't change do you, Nonna?" Gerard's P.O.V I saw a different side to Serenity as Nonna told us why she agreed to stay with Serenity. It seems she was kind of lonely and lost. When her parents died, she was thrown into leadership. Apparently the beings of Arcadia didn't become ghosts. They just became things. Like trees, statues, stars, even under water rocks. If you had the gift of mind reading, you could talk to them. So she spoke to her parents often. But she said it wasn't the same. But since Nonna arrived here, she kept Serenity company. "So how long can we stay?" Mikey asked Serenity. She smiled."You are welcome to stay as long as you like." She said, happily. "My home is your home." Mikey smiled. "Forever?" He asked, excitedly. Serenity laughed. "If you wanted to, yes." Mikey's jaw dropped open and his eyes widened. "Really?" "Really." Serenity answered, looking at me. "I was actually hoping Gerard would stay here, eventually." I smiled. "Just try to make me leave you." I said. Serenity smiled. "Is that offer, to stay permanently, extended to us all?" Bob asked. Serenity looked at him. "Of course. Would you like to live here?" Bob smiled. "Do you think your world can handle five New Jersey rockers?" Serenity laughed. "I've heard you sing. Stick to the drums and you'll be safe." She told him. "Besides, rock music is played all the time in my home. Like The Misfits, Nirvana, The Smashing Pumpkins, Black Flag and Guns 'n' Roses." Bob laughed. "I don't know what everyone else wants, but I'd like to stay. If that's okay?" Serenity's face lit up. "That would be great." "I'd like to stay too."Mikey admitted. "Brilliant." "Me too." Ray spoke up. "Awesome." Serenity looked at Mum and Dad. "Mr and Mrs Way?" She looked worried. Mum smiled at Dad. He nodded at her. Mum looked back at Serenity and smiled wider. " We would love nothing more." Serenity practically screamed as she pulled Mum and Dad into a hug. Serenity led us all to our rooms. First Mum and Dads. She pointed out a large mirror on one wall. "This is you temporary doorway to your home. It will help you collect anything you need from your world." She told them. "Just walk through whenever your ready. The other side doesn't show this world. It will be a wall in your home. It won't look any different from what it usually looks like. So try to remember which wall. These rooms can look however you want them. Just picture what you want and Kristin, my friend and resident mind reading decorating Angel, will sort it. There will be food in the dining hall in a human hour. We will have guests. Kristins there too. There will be some of my other friends there. Khrista, a muse. Caitlyn, a banshee and Jamia, a fairy. But don't worry. You won't miss her. She's a giant fairy. Our height as opposed to a regular fit-in-you-hand fairy." She led everyone else to their rooms, then led me to the dining hall by my hand. "I have to talk to Hoggle, the cook." She explained. "She's a troll. I have to tell her about Frank's dietary requirements." "Okay." I said. Before food, Serenity led me to Frank's room. He smiled as he let us in. "What's up?" He asked. "The cook has been informed that your a vegetarian." She smiled. "Also I wanted to let you know that I can cure your little stomach problem." His eyes widened. "Y...you can?" She laughed. " Of course. Well not me personally. But Jamia can. She's a doctor. She can cure anything. Even cancer. A relative tried to cure things like that in your world a long time ago. In Salem. She was killed for being a witch. She was one, but she wasn't trying to hurt anyone." Frank's mouth was wide open. He was at a loss for words. There's a first. " So what do your other friends do?" I asked. "Because you said Kristin is a decorator and Jamia's a doctor." "Oh err Caitlyn's a singer." She laughed at my look. "I know she's a banshee, but she can sing like a regular person. Well more like a Angel. Khrista is a Psychiatrist. The best, actually." We left Frank a few minutes later and headed to great the guests.
