indiana, the problem is that you didn't dismiss the spirit at the end of the session. You have to tell them to go back or you run the risk of...well, you know what's happening.
My advice (as a long-time practicing witch) is to start another session, ask the "kid" to join you, and tell him that he can go now. After you've done that, stamp on the ground three times, say "It is done" and say a prayer to whoever you happen to believe in, or the God and Goddess if you don't (they won't mind).
After that? Sleep with a sprig of rosemary in your pillowcase. It smells nice and is very effective at keeping spirits away.
