I didn’t know what had come over me.

I’d never been to the cemetery before, not since the day we buried him.

But now I was here, and I was dancing.

The moon was full in the sky, casting its silvery light over the gravestones, and I could see my shadow on the ground as I twirled around.

I must have looked like a madwoman, but I didn’t care.

I felt so light and free, as though I could dance forever.

The wind picked up, rustling the leaves of the old oak tree nearby.

My black dress fluttered, and I spun faster, my feet barely touching the ground.

Thomas's grave was beneath me, his name etched into the cold stone.

"Thomas," I whispered, my voice breaking.

Memories of him flooded my mind—his gentle eyes, his protective embrace.

I closed my eyes, letting the emotions wash over me.

But there was something else, something dark stirring within me.

A compulsion I couldn’t resist.

I opened my eyes and continued to dance, my movements fluid and haunting.

The moonlight illuminated my pale face, tears streaming down as I twirled faster and faster.

Suddenly, I felt an eerie presence watching me.

My heart pounded in my chest, a mix of sorrow and inexplicable joy turning into fear.

I stopped abruptly, breathless and terrified.

"Who's there?" I called out, my voice trembling.

Silence answered me, but the feeling of being watched didn't go away.

I took a step back, my foot crunching on a fallen twig.

"Eliza," a whisper echoed through the air, chilling me to the bone.

I spun around, searching for the source of the voice.

There was no one there, just rows of silent gravestones bathed in moonlight.

"Thomas?" I whispered again, hoping against hope that it was him.

The whisper came again, closer this time. "Eliza."

I shivered, wrapping my arms around myself for warmth.

"Show yourself!" I demanded, trying to sound braver than I felt.

A shadow moved behind one of the gravestones, and I froze.

Slowly, a figure emerged from the darkness—a tall man with piercing eyes that seemed to glow in the moonlight.

He stepped forward, his gaze locked on mine. "Eliza Hart."

My breath caught in my throat. "Who are you?"

He smiled, but it was a cold smile that sent shivers down my spine. "I'm someone who knows what you seek."

"I don't know what you're talking about," I said, taking another step back.

His smile widened. "Oh, but you do. You've been drawn here for a reason."

I shook my head. "No. I just...miss him."

"And he misses you," the man said softly. "But there's more to it than that."

"What do you mean?" I asked, my curiosity piqued despite my fear.

He took another step closer. "You have a gift, Eliza. A gift that can bring him back."

My heart skipped a beat. "Bring him back? How?"

The man reached into his coat and pulled out a small vial filled with a shimmering liquid. "With this."

I stared at the vial, hope and dread battling within me. "What is it?"

"A potion," he said simply. "One that can reunite you with Thomas."

I reached out to take it but hesitated. "What's the catch?"

He chuckled softly. "There's always a catch, isn't there? But that's for you to discover."

Before I could respond, he pressed the vial into my hand and disappeared into the shadows as quickly as he had appeared.

I stood there, clutching the vial tightly, my mind racing with possibilities and fears.

Could this really bring Thomas back?

And if it did...what would be the cost?

A sudden, urgent whisper pierced the silence, sending a shiver down my spine. "Eliza!"

The ghostly figure of Thomas appeared before me, his eyes pleading with an intensity that made my breath catch.

"Eliza, don't," he whispered, his voice filled with sorrow and desperation.

I hesitated, torn between love and fear.

My fingers tightened around the vial, feeling its weight as if it could anchor me in this moment of indecision.

"Thomas," I breathed, my voice trembling.

Suddenly, Sarah arrived, breathless and alarmed.

Her eyes widened as she took in the scene. "Eliza, what are you doing?" she demanded, her voice sharp with panic.

I turned to face her, my grip on the vial tightening even more. "I can bring him back," I said, my voice shaking with a mix of hope and fear.

Sarah's face paled, her eyes widening in horror. "No! You don't know the consequences!" she cried out, stepping closer to me.

I glanced at Thomas's ghost, his form flickering like a candle in the wind.

His eyes were filled with sorrow and something else—regret?

I looked back at Sarah, her expression one of sheer terror.

The tension grew thick around us as I faced an impossible choice.

My heart ached with desperation and longing.

"I have to try," I whispered, tears welling up in my eyes.

Sarah reached out, her hand trembling. "Eliza, please. Think about what you're doing. This isn't right."

Thomas's ghost moved closer to me, his presence cold yet comforting.

"Eliza," he whispered again, his voice breaking. "Please."

I felt a tear slip down my cheek as I looked between them—my best friend and the love of my life.

The moonlight cast eerie shadows over the gravestones, making everything feel surreal and otherworldly.

"Eliza," Sarah pleaded once more, her voice cracking. "Don't do this."

My resolve wavered for a moment.

Could I really go through with it?

What if Sarah was right?

What if there were consequences beyond my understanding?

But then I thought of Thomas—his smile, his laughter, the way he made me feel alive.

I couldn't let him go again.

Not when there was a chance to bring him back.

With a deep breath, I uncorked the vial.

The shimmering liquid inside seemed to pulse with an otherworldly energy.

"No!" Sarah screamed, lunging forward to stop me.

But it was too late.
