   Summary

   Keith doesn’t really feel loneliness anymore. He’s gotten used to people fading in and out of his life without so much as an explanation. Why should the annoying but charming ghost haunting his “new” apartment be any different?
   Except he is.
   And eventually Keith has to accept that the only person he’s ever wanted to hold onto… is someone he can’t even touch.
