A BL manga that starts with a haunted meet-cute between a plain, unlucky schoolboy who can see spirits and the cool, stoic classmate who's determined to catch his heart. A cute and spooky high school romance! I feel like...I've forgotten about someone really important to me. Yuuma Kurose is a quiet boy who can see spirits. He keeps to himself and is always alone, with a specific nightmare that haunts his nights. As if led by the dream, Yuuma moves back to the town he once lived in as a child. There, he finds a boy called Kaito who is surrounded by a horrifying ghost. "I swear I'll protect you." Kaito promises to keep Yuuma safe...but the moment he touches Yuuma, the spirit that lingered around Kaito switches targets to haunt Yuuma instead! The cool-headed, stoic, and yearning top x the unlucky, plain bottom. Toyed with by fate, the two will have to fight past spirits and hauntings to be together.
