Calla Gilles
Calla could feel his eyes on her as she fumbled to pick a movie. Obviously her outfit was working and she could tell he was attracted to her and she couldn't help but feel both nervous and excited as she settled on Click with Adam Sandler... Mostly because it was basically all genres; romance, comedy, and it was a little sad. "Hold your horses." Calla said with a laugh and moved to sit down beside him, grabbing one of the fluffier comforters to pull up to them then pressed play on the movie. Before she could even lean back though, she was tightly pulled to Nico and she couldn't help but laugh at this man.
"You know there's lots of blankets to keep warm." Calla said in a teasing tone and gestured to the mass of blankets, especially the warm comforter she had brought out. "This ones warm and fluffy." She said, doing her best to ignore the fact she was basically on top of him. When he moved her so she could see the movie she hesitated for a moment before cuddling right in to him. With her arm hugged around his chest and her leg draped against his hip, she pulled the blanket up so they wouldn't get cold, her eyes on the screen.
It wasn't until she went to sneak a glance at him that she noticed his eyes were on her. Almost instantly the blush crept up to her neck and then to her face. But... he was looking at her lips, and there was that little look in his eyes that his attention was fully for her. Biting the corner of her lip she propped herself up, deciding this one time was her moment to be brave. She spent her whole life scared of taking a chance... If what Tatum had reassured her was correct then maybe this, with Nico, could work... Gently she moved the arm that was draped across him up so that her hand was lightly placed on the side of his neck and her thumb gently brushing his jaw line. With her eyes on his a moment she glanced down to his lips and slowly started leaning in.
Until there was a crash and a shuffling sound by the garbage bins that made her jump and look toward the side of the house, "oh I fricken knew he'd come crawling around at some point." She mumbled and stood up, marching toward the side of her house, using the cardigan to make herself look more covered, "so twerp... have you come to steal my trash or have you made a decision."

Wynn Jones
Wynn had been anticipating this night for a bit now and his nerves were running high. With his moms plans to go to her church group in the city he knew she'd be gone till late and she never usually checked on him before bed... But just to make sure she didn't know he was gone he set up some pillows under the cover to make it seem like he was in bed asleep. Sending a quick message to Jenny, he said, "gonna leave my tablet at home so my mom thinks I fell asleep to music. If my tablet is here she won't check on me... I'll meet you at the library soon."
When his room was all set up to be believable he got ready pretty quickly in a simple vampire costume and some of his only black clothes. Once out of the house he ran to his bike and quickly biked into town. Luckily the ride wasn't so harsh anymore with the heat, now that it was cold. Once in town he could see all the kids trick or treating and getting candy, enjoying life and he couldn't help but feel sad with what he missed out on.
Pulling up to the familiar place he called his second home, Wynn locked up his bike and took a seat on on the stairs, placing his elbows on his knees, his hands clasped together and his foot bouncing nervously. The boy hardly had any interaction with people, ever. And now he was throwing himself into a party for a girl he hardly knew but felt like he knew. But this would be his first real teen experience... His mom took away his childhood and soon he would be an adult who can move away... This might be his only chance to be a real kid.
Completely nervous, the boy stood and began pacing the front stairs of the library, his hands in his pockets. Jenny would be there soon, and he would be around a group of kids that he didn't know soon, and he would be normal... for once.

Carson Hughes
After being away for so long it was nice to be back home with Mildred and in some ways Sydney. Though Sydney always gave her weird vibes like she could see and hear things that others couldn’t hear. She could learn to tolerate the granddaughter of Mildred, but it was going to be an interesting time with the other girl living in the house. However, none of that mattered today because it was Halloween and unlike most of the other adults Carson wasn’t dressing up, she was getting herself ready to go and explore the alleged haunted school of Anchor Bay. Did she really believe it was haunted? No. That fact didn’t stop her though especially after she bought a few books on the lore of the town. While at the bookstore she had managed to recruit both Jo and Max, and with Jo came Alexei which wasn’t a bad thing. Alexei and Jo were extremely nice a bit too lovey dovey for Carson’s taste, but she did think they made an extremely cute couple. Why Max wanted to come was beyond her understanding, but she happily agreed to let him join the group expedition.
The unfortunate thing is that Carson was going to have to bike to the school, which she could do, but it meant she had to leave earlier. It wasn’t that she didn’t want a ride from anyone she just wanted to see the place and take in the spooky vibes that everyone said they felt upon arrival. She wanted to feel it all for herself without having to be around the others. She didn’t need them to see her with her walls down so she had planned to meet them there. Have just a spare moment for herself. Sure, she had a lot of time to herself but this moment being one with nature was something different.
To say the bike ride was short would have been an outright lie and by the time Carson arrived she was winded. She parked her bike off the road and made her way around and beyond all the growing brush she could see the school peeking out. It didn’t seem grand, but she could see why others thought it would be spooky. Tucked away behind much plant life, in what was now considered the woods would give anyone some uncomfortable vibes, but she didn’t for one second think of it as being truly haunted. Afterall it was lore, so it was based on some truth and mostly lies. Myths that could be broken, sounds that could be explained through logic, it wouldn’t be that bad, it couldn’t be that bad. But it was Halloween the night where many said the spirits could freely roam the Earth once again. Bullshit if you asked Carson but why not pick an abandoned to school to test out the theory? It wasn’t like she told anyone her real reasons, she just said she was curious, not to prove to herself that ghosts were or were not real.

Calla Gilles
Calla's day had been crazy. Between setting up the house to be spooky with a fog machine, scary decorations, and getting booze and snacks, Calla was finally satisfied with the way everything looked. It was almost time for people to start arriving and the girl was both nervous and excited, hoping everything would turn out fine especially since she was new to AB. The nagging feeling that no one would want to come because of her position in the town made her super nervous, but she did her best to push past that anxiety.
Now that the house was done, the girl ran up to her room and changed into the costume she had picked up and quickly changed and did her makeup. With dark, sparkly purple eyeliner and black lips, Calla was finally happy with her look and did a quick check in the body sized mirror, making sure everything was fine.
Since the night in the backyard with Nico, they haven't really had a moment like that since besides awkward hip touches and obvious flirt teasing. They had almost kissed but Oli's interruption had stopped that from happening. Which she was both mad and happy about; mad that she almost kissed Nico and was rudely interrupted, but happy that Oli had agreed to move in. Speaking of...
After placing the cute little witch hat on her head, the girl hurried down the stairs, happy she didn't put the heels for the costume on yet or there would have been a possibility she would've tumbled down the stairs. Before entering the basement with the snacks and drinks she had purchased for Oli, she gave a soft knock then descended down, "hey bud. I got these so you don't feel pressure if you needed to go upstairs for them." Calla said and walked over to he kitchenette she had set up for him. There was no sink but there was a hot plate on a makeshift counter, an electric kettle, a microwave and a minifridge. While it was pretty last minute, the girl hopefully would get a contractor in to make an actual one.
Kneeling down the girl began to unpack the bags into the minifridge and the snacks into the little storage baskets. There was juice, pop, chips, and many other things that he could eat that were both junk food and healthy. "I hope I grabbed what you like." She told the kid and stood up, "also, I'll lock the door at the top of the stairs so if you need to leave and take a walk or anything just use the door over there to go outside." She smiled, somewhat seeming to be hurried.

Della Bressett
"Mommy, this house!" Della heard Everleigh squeal and run up the sidewalk of a pretty dressed up house, a smile on her lips. She had never taken Everleigh trick or treating before, and the child was harvesting more excitement than her little body could handle. "Okay baby when they answer say 'trick or treat!'" She told the little one as she watched Everleigh do exactly that. Glancing down at her phone she saw the text from Blu and bit her lip. She couldn't get the night they almost kissed out of her head, and it kinda made her fumble and stuff at work. Her brain was all flustered.
When Everleigh came running back, she slipped her phone back into her pocket and continued on. Eventually with the little girl was cold and her feet were tired, Della strapped Everleigh into the stroller and made their way back home. "Okay, I'm gonna put your treats into the pantry and you can have a few pieces each day. With this much candy you'll be set till Christmas." Della said excitedly and put the candy in a shopping bag and hung it on a hook out of Everleighs reach. "Go put on your jammies before the babysitter gets here." She motioned for Everleigh to go and patiently waited for the kid she hired for the night.
When the teenager arrived, Della walked the kid through everything and smiled. The kid wasn't too young, about 16 and she was one of the regulars at the diner's kid so Della trusted her. "If you put on Frozen then Everleigh will be set for the night... oh and if she gets hungry just pop some dino nuggets into the air fryer and she'll love you forever." Della said with a laugh and left the house, carrying the tinkerbell wings in one arm. From where she lived she knew the party wasn't too far away and when she arrived there were already a few people trickling in and some spooky music was playing from some synced from a few speakers around the house.
Where the front hallway closet was Della hung her jacket up then put on the cute little wings. The dress was a little revealing but not something she wasn't used to, her style was pretty different than what most people expected from moms. The woman made her way over to where Calla had stacked booze in the kitchen and smiled at the effort that the new girl put into making the house all spooky, pouring herself something with rum and leaned against the counter, taking her phone to shoot Blu a text, "here!"

Hudson Green
The wheels of his longboard hummed against the pavement going full speed toward the loud music coming from Jenny's house. With one hand in his pocket, and the other holding a smoke, Hudson paid no mind to his surroundings as the music grew closer. While the devil costume was a relaxed fit and pretty comfy, the makeup his sister put on him made his face feel uncomfortable and itchy. How she managed to get him to dress up? He didn't know. When he reached the house he looked around at the decorations, dropping the cigarette on the ground and crushing it as he grabbed the longboard off the pavement. Hudson had been disappointed in himself this year, with failing his senior year and needing to retake it, he felt too old to be at this party but too young to be at the other one. If he had graduated he'd be in Hawaii right now, surfing away.
Going inside, he was greeted by some people, smiling and nodding like he actually wanted to be there. It didn't take long to get a drink in his hand and downed it pretty quickly, though with his hang out with Tatum later he was careful not to let himself smell like alcohol, and instead of choosing to smoke weed, he ate a couple gummies that one of his friends provided. Hudson's life was one big whirlwind of feeling like the odd person out, though he knew he wasn't someone who was hated among Anchor Bay... and he was aware he wasn't the smartest so sometimes friendships and relationships went right over his head. The school psychologist said it was Asperger Syndrome and ADD? "It's not severe symptoms but they may affect him later on." He could hear the psychologist saying.
With the slight buzz from the gummies, Hudson was already over the loud music of the party and left the house. Last year this sort of thing was something he would embrace, but now it just felt like he was intruding in some way. Of course that could just be his brain messing with him, but he needed to leave. Hopping back on his longboard, Hudson went barreling through the streets again, dodging late night trick or treaters, and eventually found himself at the convenience store. Grabbing a basket, he picked up a big bag of sour patch kids, by her request, nacho chips and dip, and a couple of sodas. After everything was checked out, Hudson made his way to Tatum's place, skidding to a stop.
Just to be sure none of his previous activities would trigger or affect her, he popped some gum from his backpack and dropped a couple of eye drops into his eyes though he knew they weren't red in any way because of his tolerance, and then made his way to the door, giving a couple knocks. Since his sister came back to town, he couldn't stand being home while she apartment shopped, and of course his parents expectations were reminded again how much they expect from Hudson. He didn't want to deal with her at all, and while sometimes she was good company, he generally couldn't stand being around her. Which is why he was here when he originally didn't have anything planned... It was a good thing he felt comfortable around Tatum.

Odette Green
Odette was excited about being home from the moment her car pulled into Anchor Bay that morning. Of course she would miss the sun and fun of L.A. but the modelling thing was just becoming too hard on her both physically and emotionally. Between needing to keep a tip top appearance, the eating disorders, and the hate, the paparazzi, and her constantly being in the public eye, she was exhausted. When she announced she was retiring... a lot of people understood. Of course her fans and trans kids who looked up to her were disappointed, but she knew she needed to get out before she broke completely. Anchor Bay was where she started and she knew it was the place she needed to end. While her new income would be from being an influencer, she was content with the major modelling to end.
Odette hadn't seen her parents in 6 years, but they welcomed her with open arms. And to be honest she missed them... even her stupid little brother. She'd be staying at their house while the condo on the beach that she had purchased was getting renovated, so her little brother would have to put up with her for a few weeks. And of course, her old friends of the town... She missed them as well. She hadn't spoken to them much since she left, only popping in for a quick check in every now and then, Odi was for the most part excited to see them again. Especially with the Halloween party happening that night. It was a chance to see the people she left as well as meet the new people she hadn't.
After she had touched up Hudsons makeup with a laugh, she sent him on his way then began to do her own, making sure to go all out. While she wouldn't miss modelling, she couldn't help but enjoy being the center of attention. Her costume was simply meant to be an angel costume, but the way it turned out made it look more like Romeo and Juliet, not that she minded. Once everything was perfect, she made her way to the Witch's house. The stories from when she was a kid had surprised her that a girl her age, who was the womans granddaughter, now owned it.
There were already people trickling in to the party and Odette recognized some faces almost instantly. Going to the kitchen on a hunt for booze, she poured herself a vodka water and began chatting with the blonde in a Tinkerbell costume. This girl was definitely new and definitely seemed fun to talk to. It didn't take long to find out her name was Della and she'd only been living in Anchor Bay for a few months. From the looks of it, the girl already seemed tipsy and she couldn't help but giggle at her "girlfriend, but a girl whos a friend, definitely not a girlfriend is meeting me" remark. Anchor Bay drama was always the best drama.

After making sure everything was neatly organized for the kid she walked over to him and patted his shoulder, "let me know if you need anything, just text." She said with a smile but looked up when she heard foot steps upstairs, "gotta go." She said to the kid and turned to go up the basement stairs. Behind her she locked the door then stuck caution tape to it for a little extra Halloween spookiness.
Already people were spilling in to the house and she started playing a Halloween playlist that was bluetoothed to her phone. Slipping her phone into the pocket she had sewn into her dress, she went back up to her room to pull on her shoes, deciding to go with some flats instead of heels. After checking on her messages from Tatum she sighed and went back downstairs to grab herself a drink. In the kitchen there were two girls talking, one seeming to already be tipsy and she was happy they were having fun.
Calla had been worrying all week whether this party was going to be lame or not, but from what she could tell so far people were having fun. Opting for a cooler from the fridge, Calla went to seek out Nico and when she eventually found him she looked somewhat flustered, "so I gave Oli some snacks and pop and stuff so I think he's all set, if I forget to, I task you to send a check up text every now and then." She told him, "he still hasn't talked yet..." She said, somewhat worried but could tell that the kid was somewhat content. Maybe she could get him something that interests him. She saw the book about turtles on the coffee table down there... Maybe she could get him a new book?
Looking at Nico she bit her lip. While things haven't been awkward since the beach night, they still haven't talked about what happened and she was kinda sad about it. "Do you uh.. Need anything before all this gets too crazy?" She asked taking a long, long sip from her cooler, waiting for his answer as Thriller played in the background.

After making sure everything was neatly organized for the kid she walked over to him and patted his shoulder, "let me know if you need anything, just text." She said with a smile but looked up when she heard foot steps upstairs, "gotta go." She said to the kid and turned to go up the basement stairs. Behind her she locked the door then stuck caution tape to it for a little extra Halloween spookiness.
Already people were spilling in to the house and she started playing a Halloween playlist that was bluetoothed to her phone.

Tatum Browne
It was Halloween and everyone was out going to parties or functions and Tatum was at home bored. She had hoped to spend time with Ryker he had been distant for a bit now and she was starting to get upset by the whole situation. They had spent so much time together he had even let her stay over and then suddenly when she had gone home not feeling well, she went to check in with him and he had been mostly silent. She would occasionally get one-word responses from him but otherwise it had been absolute silence. Was he mad? Was it because he made breakfast and she got sick? Did he get mad because she got sick? He couldn’t be that self-absorbed, he had never been before.
Instead, she messaged another friend in hopes that he was available and didn’t want to party. Wishful thinking but she hated being in the house alone. Hated being alone with her thoughts, her inner demons. She loved having company and of course her parents decided to go to the Halloween function, some stupid business function and there would be alcohol so Tatum couldn’t go. It was a relief when Hudson had agreed to hang out with her and watch some scary movies. She wouldn’t have to be alone after all and he was enjoyable company.
When she heard the knock at her door, she quickly popped off the couch to open the door for him. It was nice to see a friendly face, she quickly wrapped her arms around him in a hug, “I’m glad you could come. It would be way too boring otherwise.” Hudson was one of the few people that had known Tatum during her less than ideal years. Times when she was either drunk, high, or a combination and yet he had chosen to stick around her and wanted to be around her while she was working hard on her sobriety.
When she pulled away from the hug she led him to the living room, blankets and pillows set up for extra comfort and movies laid in front of them. “I figured we could start with The Shining.” The case held up in front of Hudson’s face, “I did say I would make it happen and my father does have quite the movie collection.” It would be a fun night. She popped the disk into the player and got herself settled ready for a night of candy and movies with at least one person who didn’t ignore her.

Hudson Green
Hudson smiled when Tatum opened the door and hugged the girl back in a tight hug, "hey it's good to see you." He told her, genuinely meaning it. Hudson had seen her go through the worst, and stuck around because while partying with her had been fun, he wasn't friends with her just for the booze and drugs... He did that all for himself. Tatum was just his good friend that happened to spiral from the antics. Following her inside, he dropped his longboard by the door and kicked off his shoes as well as took off the stupid devil horns before he went with her to the living room.
As the girl held up the Shining in front of him a smirk touched his lips, "Mr. Browne has great taste in movies." He said with approval and went to the couch, opening his backpack to lay out their choices of snacks and drinks, making sure the cabbage patch kids dropped dramatically to emphasize their presence, "and I got the goods." He told her in a teasing tone and opened up the bag of chips, not caring much for a bowl to put them in. Of course Halloween candy would've been appropriate for the night, the towns kids seemed to have cleared the shelves from such delicacies.
"So," Hudson said, observing the movie selection, with his elbows on his knees and his eyes squinted some, "I say Shining first, Rocky Horror second, then end with the Conjuring?" He asked the girl, leaning back off his elbows into a relaxed position on the couch, gathering up some blankets to be cozy and popping a chip into his mouth. "Unless you're too scaaared." He joked, keeping his focus on her until she sat and plopped some of the blanket down on her to cozy up as well. While AB was cold, but not cold cold, cozy nights were a must for the surfer boy.

Della Bressett
This Odette girl was fun to talk to. She was open about who she knew in the town, what the town was like, and what usually went on. Of course the girl was different though, she had just moved back after being gone for a few years. As Della drank more she couldn't seem to stop talking about Blu and her possible feelings for the girl. But Odette gave good advice on how to handle the situation, "just figure yourself out... you've been in a relationship since high school so maybe you aren't fully straight." The girl told Della and she sighed, just even more confused now.
Della shot a smile between Blu and Odette when Blu came up and grabbed her hand then spun Blu around to look at her outfit, subtly checking the girl out as she did so, "Harley, I love it!" She laughed and grabbed her cup off the counter to lead Blu away from Odette, blushing when Odette's "the tension, good luck you two!" Was it that obvious? Della knew it was there but had hoped it wasn't noticeable to anyone. The two women for the last couple of weeks had a tight chord between them, pushing them away when things got too obvious but pulling them right back together.
Taking a sip from the cup, Della was just glad she had chosen the green flats to go with her costume. "Everleigh had of course picked my outfit." The girl did a small spin for Blu, doing a little pose at the end then laughed. The alcohol was definitely taking affect on her. Where she could drink a whole bottle of wine to herself and hardly feel it, the hard alcohol hit a little different. "ugh I missed your beautiful face." Della said and hooked her arm around Blu's waist with a smile, "sorry for leaving you hanging at the diner today..." She said with a pouty lip.
"And sorry about Derrick. He's a dick..." She said, resting her head on Blu's shoulder. Della couldn't stand the guy. Though she never met him, everything he does on Twitter is revolting and gross. To not only Blu but literally everyone in the town. "But we can have our fun to take your mind off it." She said, nodding to the drink in Blu's hand with a smile on her lips. She wanted nothing more than to cheer Blu up, and maybe drink to forget her feelings for the night... Though the drinks seem to be changing by making her feelings worse... Maybe she just needed to get laid...
