Este’s new roommate was a ghost and not a particularly good one.
Standing on the other side of the cedar door to Vespertine Hall 503, a
teenage girl under a paisley bedsheet said, “Oh, my god, Este, hi! You’re
here.”

On Este’s first day at Radcliffe Prep, what she really wanted was a
chance to soak it all in. The way the light streaked through the white pines
outside the windows. How the original hardwood floors from 1901 felt
beneath her feet. The fact that she was finally here, really here.
Instead, she walked straight into auditions for Casper the Friendly
Ghost.
According to her orientation paperwork, the person underneath had to
be Este’s roommate, Posy Thatch: fellow incoming junior, night owl, and
amateur journalist. On paper (or, technically, the roommate assignment quiz
new students had been forced to take), they were a perfect match.
But in reality? Two holes had been cut out of the still-wrinkled sheet for
a pair of wide green eyes, and they blinked at Este, expectant.
Este nudged the door closed behind her. “And you’re haunting our dorm
room?”
“Unpacking.” Posy stripped off her makeshift costume, revealing a
Radcliffe Prep hoodie with the tag still on, a spray of staticky orange hair,
and a wide grin. “My little brothers made this as a going-away present in
case there’s a Halloween party. Mom was not happy. I’m sure you know
how it is.”
“Not exactly.” Este readjusted the straps of her backpack just to do
something with her hands.
She and her mom had spent the last three years living on pinstripe
highways and borrowed time, never staying in one place long enough to
settle down. Even now, her mom must have been zipping back down the
Vermont mountainsides on her way to anywhere but here. Hadn’t even
bothered to walk her to orientation. She’d dropped Este off at the boarding
school’s towering iron gates, her grief too heavy to carry inside the
Radcliffe grounds. Was that the kind of thing you told your brand-new
roommate on day one?
She settled on saying, “I’m an only child.”
Posy seemed undeterred by her deer-in-the-headlights expression. “Oh,
okay. Cool! Let me show you around.”
Este didn’t bother informing Posy that their suite was small enough that
she could practically see it all from the front door. A tiny kitchenette—mini
fridge, microwave, a hot plate, and a sink—opened to the shared living
space. There, a green claw-foot couch took up most of the square footage,
and the rest was occupied by a bookshelf and a coffee table splayed with
gizmos and gadgets that definitely hadn’t been on the suggested-packing
list. Doors on either side of the living room were their bedrooms, 503A and
503B.
All in all, it was a huge improvement from the Motel 6 she had just left.
“I took this room,” Posy said, heading left to 503B. “Hope that’s okay.
The energy just pulled me here. I haven’t scanned the frequencies yet, but it
totally feels haunted. Don’t you think?”
“Um,” Este said, shifting her weight between her heels, “can you define
haunted?”
