Kelly had walked the rest of the way home. It had not been a very far walk, two miles to her home. Her mother wasn't home, when Kelly used her key to get in her mom had left a note on the refrigerator telling her she had gone to the store to do some shopping. Kelly had decided then she would take a shower and change into fresh clothes. Then she would go over to Maggie and Deans. She was sure the Winchesters would be throwing their usual Halloween bash. And she knew she would be invited.
Tonight she wouldn't be doing any singing. She just wanted to kick back and relax. The weight of the road was still on her shoulders and she just wanted a break from it all, to enjoy spending time with her friends and her mom. Her mom and her kept in touch often from the road either on cell-phone or through Skype. They had a very close relationship. Her mother understood her unlike a lot of other people. Kelly stepped into the shower and Put her clothes in a separate laundry basket she would wash those before she headed out, if her mother found those, she would be asking nosy questions. Kelly knew she only cared about her, but sometimes the constant prying got annoying.
Kelly took a quick shower relaxing against the warmth of the water. It had been nearly a month and she hadn't heard a word from Elliot her boyfriend the Angel. She knew he was doing works up in Heaven but she had no idea when he would return. And it was frustrating because now she really needed him, sometimes Kelly wished he was just a normal human being that way nothing could keep them apart. He hated to go but he had responsibilities as an Angel. He promised to look after her but it felt like he wasn't even around.
Kelly stepped out of the shower and got dressed she changed into a costume she'd had for years, a witch costume that she dressed up as one of the Charmed witches. She decided not to wear a witch hat for they wasn't wearing one in the series any. She was finishing up her makeup when she heard a car pull up in the driveway, it was her mother returning from the store. She smiled it was going to be a relief to see her mom. They always made up time to spend together when she got back. Kelly went downstairs to see if she needed any help carrying anything in.
Susan Clarkson was surprised to see her daughter when she walked in. She immediately put down the bags and gave her a hug "Sweetie! It's so good to see you! I was wondering when you might be coming in! As she hugged her, she smoothed out her daughter's hair. Kelly hugged her back. It was so good to be home!
"I'm so glad to be back home. The Tour has been wearing me down a bit lately. A gig every night, sometimes two". Kelly told her.
Susan "And look at you, your getting skinny again! I need to feed you while you're here. Your friends are throwing a Halloween party tonight. Why don't we go together?"
Kelly smiled "That sounds great. I can't wait to see everyone". She helped her mom bring the groceries inside and they got started on the Halloween treats together.
"Where is Elliot? I expected him to be with you". asked Susan.
Kelly "He's busy having some important things to tend to lately. He works so much these days sometimes I hardly even see him".
"Well he is an Angel isn't he? They have more responsibilities than us Witches do". said Susan. Like Kelly, Susan was a Witch but a good one but she hardly practiced much due to she didn't want the public to find out because if she did, she could lose her job.
Kelly nod "That's what I keep telling myself. But it's really tough not hearing from him at all and I can't help but wonder if he's doing ok up there".
Susan hugged her "I'm sure he's doing fine and you'll hear from him soon. Now let's get these treats over to your friends, the party is beginning soon".
They got the sweets and treats loaded into their family car a van and headed over to Maggie's and Dean's.
