What Was Always Good Enough For You, Pa

"I didn't think i've meet famous spirits before," Adam replied.

"I'll be your friend then, and Jason and Angel too!"

"There ain't many who did what we did who dare show their faces," said Clyde.

Gabe smiled. "Thanks."

"Maybe... I've heard of lots of ghost stories but who knows what is true." Adam said with a kind smile.

Dante gave his new friend an excited hug.

"If you hear somethin' 'bout somebody, but you ain't seen 'em, it's prob'lly true," said Clyde.

Gabe chuckled a little, hugging him back.

Adam nodded, "So how long have you been with the circus?"

Dante smiled happily. "Come meet Angel."

"Not too long," said Bonnie. "A few months now."

"Sugar wanted us to stay quite for a while, not draw too much attention, for the boy's sake," said Clyde, wrapping his arms around Bonnie's middle, resting his head on her shoulder.

"The boy is our son, and he has a name, baby," said Bonnie

A small sigh. "Okay, okay, for Gabriel's sake. Better, sugar?"

Bonnie smiled. "Yes, baby."

Gabe looked between Dante, and his parents before nodding. "Okay."

Adam smiled, "Me and my son and brother have only been here for about a month."

Dante smiled and lead him over to Angel, "This is Angel, she's a fae."

Angel gave a curtsy, "Hello."

Bonnie nodded. "Still a bit new then, aren't you?"

Gabe smiled. "Hi."

Adam nodded, "It was a bit different at first but now its home..."

Angel smiled, "I am Angel Foxwood, Shide from the Seelie court."

Bonnie nodded. "Same for us."

"I'm Gabriel Goodman-Barrow, ghost, spirit, whatever you wanna call me," said the teen.

"I run one of the food stands."

"It is nice to meet you." The girl said with a smile

"Bonnie here walks the rope, throws knives, and does costumes," Clyde beamed proudly.

"Clyde and I throw knives together," said Bonnie.

"Nice to meet you too," Gabe smiled.

"I'll have to catch your act sometime." Adam smiled.

Jason walked over, "I'm Jason, vampire... Well half vampire half demon but mostly vampire."

Bonnie nodded. "That'd be great!"

Gabe smiled. "Hi."

Adam smiled, "i have to go to my food booth now, hopefully i'll see you soon."

"Are you really a spirit?"

Bonnie nodded. "See you around."

"I am," said Gabe. "So are my parents."

"Cool." Jason said with a smile, "What is it like?"

Gabe shrugged. "It's all I've ever known really."

Jason nodded, "I think its like that for all of us, we were all born what we are."

Gabe nodded. "I was only just over a year old when I died."

"Wow..." Dante said softly before giving him a hug.

Gabe hugged him back. "I had a blockage in my small intestine, my birth parents took me to clinics, emergency rooms, specialists, and they all missed it. They said: 'Babies cry, allergies, gas, who knows why.'"

"Stupid doctors....." Dante said as his ears went down.

"I am most sorry my friend." Angel said softly.

"I remember my birth mom a little bit," said Gabe. "Most nights she slept next to my crib, she'd play an old music box to try to calm me down..."

"What was the song?" Dante asked softly.

Jason reached over and rubbed one of his friend's downed ears.
