'On All Hallows Eve
when the moon is round
a virgin shall summon us
from under the ground'

Even as he tried to pay attention, more for Emma's sake then his own, Sean shook his head to himself - this story was so stupid. Their town practically fed off this shit!

He itched his temple, careful of his black tuke of course, and he boredly glanced around the room with his steal blue eyes. He turned his head to sneak a glance at his girlfriend, Emma, who was beside him, in her cute little jean skirt and white tank top, her new bangs from the start of this year growing out to the side now. Her hands were folded on the desk, her long tanned legs crossed under the desk. Sean smirked, and while she looked so adorably into the story, he playfully moved the front leg of her chair so she'd move closer to beside him, as if right next to him wasn't close enough.

"Sean!" she snapped in a whisper after she gasped then giggled, knowing he caught her in a trance because she was so into the story. She slapped him playfully back as he laughed silently, his dimples digging into his handsome face.

The whole class was so into the story though! Even Jt was leaning forward on his desk, mouth dropped open wide.

Mrs. Kwan continued speaking through Sean and Emma's playful fight. "No one knew what became of Thackery Binx those 300 years ago. Some say, that on Halloween night a black cat still guards the old Sanderson house warning off any who might make the witches come back to life."

"Give me break," Paige spoke up in the middle of class, Hazel was beside her and filing her nails, "I'm so sick of hearing this story over and over again." she rolled her eyes.

"Don't believe it?" asked a voice, and she turned to her boyfriend. Spinner and Jimmy chuckled from behind her when she turned to glare.

Hazel snapped back, "Everyone knows that Halloween was invented by the candy companies. These are just old tales to scare everyone for fun."

"Their old haunted mansion is right downtown," taunted Toby to Paige and Hazel, all matter-of-fact like. "You can't deny proof. That's been sitting there for 100 years!"

Paige snorted, "So they say. It's probably a Hollywood hoax."

"We don't live in Hollywood." a bored, monotone voice from Jt chimed in. He just felt like Paige should know that.

"You know what I mean." snapped Paige, narrowing her eyes and scoffing. She remembered the days when Jt Yorke would agree with just about anything she said back in the day, where was that guy?!

"It's a conspiracy!" Spinner stated emphatically, trying to make fun of even his own girl friend and Hazel for not joining in on the fun. Halloween was a blast! Why complain about a cute old scary story all us kids were told about on Hallows eve?

Emma couldn't help but put her two cents in as well, playing with her pencil as she turned to look over her shoulder at Paige, "There are roots around the Sandersons house from that oak tree that was planted beside it 100 years ago. It's larger than the oak tree we have in front of our school, that we know has been there for at least 65 years because there is photo proof.. So how could you not believe that haunted house has been there for more than 100 years and isn't a hoax?"

"Magic isn't real, Emma." spat Paige, like any idiot would know that. From beside her, Hazel muttered, "Tree hugger."

Emma tried not to smile, turning back forward and shaking her head.

Not everyone could be blessed with beauty and brain.

Sean leaned more back in his seat next to Emma to also look over his shoulder, raising a taunting eyebrow at the girls, "I think we were talking about if a haunted house was real or not. Not magic, Tinkerbell."

Some of the class laughed, and the girls faces went red, Paige more than Hazels. Emma bit her lip as she smiled more now and narrowed her eyes to her boyfriend of now 4 years (maybe on and off but definitely on for good now!)

He chuckled and shook his head, turning back forward as well and snaking an arm around Emma as another person added themselves into the conversation.

"Anyone ever gone down there?" everyone went quiet, and they all turned slowly to the person who had asked in the back row. Ellie Nash, of course, the school goth. Red head, black lipstick, black clothes.

Everyone blinked, and glanced around as nobody spoke up. Guess that said it all.

The bell rang, sparing everyone from listening any more to Hazel and Paige bitch and complain like they usually did..

"Well that was fun." Manny said, going to Emma and Sean as Emma laughed and agreed.

She grabbed her books, and then Sean slipped his hand into hers, "Lets get out of this hellhole." Sean muttered.

Emma gave him a look as he led her out, eagerly. "It's only lunch, Sean. Got 3 more classes to go after." she reminded playfully.

Manny laughed and followed them to The Dot.

Sean would never change, and Emma would always love those parts about him. They leveled another out. When Sean wanted to do something bad, Emma was his 'angel' on his shoulder and when Emma may need a little shove to do something fun or needed to let loose, Sean would be there. She was always in control, and he was always out of it, so they balanced another out. They were perfect together.

On the way to the Dot, Sean had to give the people of their town some credit – they did Halloween right! Every house as far as you could see was decorated to the nines. Fake cob webs, spiders, strobe lights, pumpkins. Candy was given out in full-size bars too every year!

"Pumpkins for 1 dollar!" Liberty Van Zandt cheered happily when her friends stopped just outside the Dot where she sat at a small booth her and Jt fixed up to sell some pumpkins this week.

"Ouuu!" squeeled Manny, digging into her purse for change. Sean and Emma waited as she grabbed two baby pumpkins and told Emma almost demandingly, "We're carving these after school."

"Okay." Emma said, raising her hands as if a gun was pointed at her and laughed.

They went up the stairs of the Dot, and when Sean held the door open for Manny and Emma to go into the Dot, he had to roll his eyes at the corny matt on the ground that screamed bloody mary when they went by. Emma jumped a bit though and clung to him, which made him smirk and forget about calling the poor matt stupid. He put his hand on the small of her back, and led her inside.

"BAMBAM!" they heard as soon as they stepped into the Dot. Jay Hogart, of course. "Over here!"

He was sitting alone, and, to Emma, was being a little too nice lately for Jay Hogart. Was this a trick, instead of a treat?

They sat down at the booth he saved for them, but Emma then had to admit, he had to be nice now since this year was a bummer for Jay. Alex dumped him, Towerz was dating Liberty (until just recently breaking up), and Sean told Jay to go stick 'it' up his ass if he had a problem with him and Emma together . They all knew Jay was just threatened by Emma though since never knowing a girl who was so independent and also pretty. That could be scary to a guy like Jay I guess.

So Jay's been kind of turning over a new leaf. Well, sort of. "Nice pumpkins, Dimples." he said to Manny.

Manny scowled at him, putting down the two small pumpkins from holding them around her chest. She knew what he meant though. Maybe her top was a little too low for October.

Jay smirked and watched her sit across him with her hot little glare.

"So, Jay.." taunted Emm playfully to get his attention off Manny, "Going trick or treating tonight?"

He gave her a fake laugh and they shared a 'I still don't like you but lets not tell Sean' look. "I'm a little too old for that now, Greenpeace. And I'm a little exhausted from last nights devil night."

Sean smirked back at him and nodded until he groaned when Emma smacked his hard ab'd stomach. She would of blushed if not so mad right now.

"You went out?!" she snapped, "What'd you do? Vandelize houses and throw cliche toilet paper everywhere?" she glared at Jay next, "Steal candy bars again for old time sake?"

"We painted the town red." Jay declared with a proud grin.

"Not true." denied Sean, giving Emma his best puppy dog eyes, "We only did minor things Em, I swear-"

Jay leaned in closer, hissing under his breath, "Could you at least pretend we are still badasses man!? God! You're killin' my rep." he leaned back in a huff.

Maybe Degrassi was still afraid of Sean and Jay (Like they should be), but Jay was really losing his edge and didn't want anyone to know, and Sean was such a softy when Emma was around! So damn... "Annoying!" Jay declared out loud, childishly.

"What is your problem, coco banana's?!" Manny snapped under her breath, gazing at the old people giving her and their group weird glances from Jay's out burst.

His full lips nearly pouted, tapping his fingers on his mug of coffee and maybe a pinch of some vodka from the flask in his jacket. "I'm just so .. .BORED!"

"Lets do something fun tonight then." Sean said.

"We are." Emma insisted, perking up a bit and excited for tonights plans "We are going to Ashley Kerwins party."

Manny gasped, clapping her hands together, "I heard her Dads really decorated the place to look like a haunted house." Manny squealed with excitement

"Or," Sean said, leaning forward on the table and his eyes almost twinkled when an idea formed into his head. Jay raised an eyebrow, liking the near menace look Sean got.

"Yea?" Jay asked.

Both the girls shared a look and rolled their eyes smiling.

"Or we could go to a real haunted house." Sean declared. "The Sanderson Sisters house." his smirk turned into a grin.

Jay smirked over to the girls, who both looked worriedly at another.
