"Justin! Someone's here." the blondie said, calling her lover to answer the door.
"Y-Yeah. Hold on." he said, quickly putting the finishing touches on his Halloween costume.
He looked at himself in the mirror, proud of the DIY he did when making this rather kooky costume. In his reflection, he wore an odd-looking suit, one side being a generic black and white color, something a lawyer would wear. But the other half had vibrant colors, splatters of purple, pink, and black stripes accompanied by the pink face paint he wore, which was also only on his left side. He called it the "Split Personality" suit, strongly resembling Two Face in Batman Forever.
"At least I'm not a two-faced liar." he said to himself, exiting the bathroom.
Justin walked out, catching both Tiffany and Candace by surprise.
"Well I'll be!" the stripper said, who was wearing a somewhat revealing police uniform.
"Holy crap..." Tiffany said, dressed up in a rather youthful-looking outfit.
He smiled at them, glad that they were impressed with his DIY work. He then opened the door, wondering who their first guest could be.
It was Nikki, who usually never showed up this early.
"Hi." she greeted, wearing a pink teddy bear onesie.
"Hey, Nikki. Or, should I say I DON'T FREAKING CARE, Bear?" he said, acting a bit ballistic towards her costume.
What the fuck is he saying? the gamer girl thought to herself.
She shook her head, knowing he didn't know or care for the game that she was cosplaying from.
He let her in, still waiting on the Halloween party to start. It was only six o'clock in the evening, so it was still relatively early.
"Hey, Candace." the gamer girl greeted her friend.
"Oh, hi there, Nik." she greeted back.
She looked at her, admiring her costume. "Nice police officer uniform."
Candace looked down, almost forgetting that she was wearing it.
"Oh, thanks. I almost forgot I was wearing my cute little police outfit."
"Right."
Suddenly, there was another knock on the door. He answered it, shocked at what he was seeing.
"Ah! It's the god damn devil." he shrieked, seeing Jessie dressed up like a red demon.
She chuckled. "Don't worry, I don't bite. Well, unless you want me to." the blonde MILF said, being semi-flirty with her future step-son.
"Heh, yeah. Come on in, Jessie. The party hasn't really started yet."
Jessie walked in, seeing her daughter.
"Hey, Mom." she said, greeting her mother, who was dressed up like a demon.
"Well, if it isn't my little Tiffany. You don't look a day over twelve." she said, jabbing at her youthful outfit.
"Uh, thanks?" she said, not aware of how her costume made her look like a child, despite being 23.
Jeez, that Tiffany reminds me of a littlespace fetishist
"Shut up!" JD randomly shouted at the voice in his head.
Everyone turned towards him, not aware of who he was talking to.
"Who are you telling to shut up?" his girlfriend asked.
"N-No one. I just had a boner, that's all." he said, dropping it with an awkward excuse.
"Okay?" she said, thinking it was a bit off that he was telling his erection to shut up.
Later on, more guests arrived. Both Nora and Kyanna were next to ring the doorbell. However, upon opening it, he came to an interesting surprise.
"Uh..." he awkwardly said, wondering why their costumes looked much more kooky than his. Nora was wearing an orange beanie, a shirt with red suspenders, accompanied by short shorts and a fake mustache on her face. Kyanna was dressed like a hippie, large amounts of fake hair on her face. She looked almost unrecognizable to him.
"Hey, Ese. We're here for the party." the Latina said. He let both of them in, still weirded out by their ridiculous costumes.
Must be from some stoner-Mexican movie.
"Say, where's Philly?" he asked Kyanna, wondering where her son was at.
"Oh, he's at home with Vin. I decided to leave him behind, ya know?"
He nodded, understanding why. We ARE drinking tonight. Don't want Little Phillip to be exposed to that.
Everyone eventually made it, all wearing very interesting costumes, to say the least. Aiko wore a rather sexual pair of clothing, accompanied by stockings, Ashley wore the infamous outfit that looked exactly like the Japanese teacher's, which they found funny. Mr. Goggles even showed up wearing a biohazard suit, almost as if he were afraid of a deadly virus or outbreak. He really is a lunatic, isn't he?
But what was really surprising to him is seeing Milla make an appearance.
"Milla?" he said, happy to see his old friend wearing an imp suit.
"Justin." she said, coming in and joining them.
It was pretty unexpected seeing her there, but it wasn't a bad thing.
"I'm happy to see you here. Are you here for the party?" he asked the transgender Russian woman.
"No, I'm here to use the bathroom. Of course I'm here for the party!"
That was actually kinda funny.
"Come in. In my house, that is. Not-"
"Okay, okay." she replied, knowing he was about to make a vulgar joke.
As the party began to unfold, he decided to take shots. TIME TO DRINK, BOY!
"Hey, everyone? Gather around." Justin said, calling for all of his friends to drink with him.
All attention was now faced towards the man with the wacky suit and face paint.
"To celebrate this glorious holiday, one that I completely neglected last year, I feel we should all have a blast tonight."
Everyone nodded, knowing it was well-deserved after everything going on since last October.
"I just wanted to say thank you all for coming to my Halloween banger. I really appreciate having you all here, you know? Instead of abandoning me like SOME PEOPLE!"
Tiffany looked at him, getting the feeling that this 'Split Personality' outfit was more than just a costume.
"Babe, chill out." she said.
"Oh, right." he said, realizing he was acting manic. "Sorry, lost my shit for a second there. Anyways, I'd like to give a special thanks to Kyanna and Nora for being there for my friend, Vinnie. It's unfortunate that he wasn't able to make it this evening, but he's about to be a married man. He has responsibilities to take care of."
He then put his eyes on Kyanna, knowing she was the lucky woman getting married.
"Kyanna, Ms. Delrio. Soon, Mrs. Gill. I just wanted to say congrats on your recent engagement. I've never seen Vin happier in his whole life. You're awesome and I'm glad Philly is no longer a fatherless child."
The Hispanic smiled at him. "Ah, thanks man. I'm pretty stoked about that too."
He nodded. "Yep. Nora, you're also a great friend. I hope that one day you meet someone just as nice as Vinnie. You're just as deserving to have a husband as she is."
The Latina shrugged. "Eh, it'll come one day. I'm in no rush. I appreciate the compliment though. Thanks, JD."
"Right. I'd also like to thank Ashley for showing up. Ash, I know we've limited our communication last December, but you're still a close ally. You were my friend with benefits, but now we're just friends."
The English girl nodded, knowing that the golden days between them were over.
"Yeah, it's alright, Sweet Cheeks. You gotta change things up eventually, otherwise it'd get boring real quick."
"Thanks. Too bad Lillian's not here to celebrate with us. I'm curious as to what she would've dressed up as. Knowing her, probably a freaky-ass vampire. Then again, she looks like that everyday."
Oh shit, I completely forgot to tell him about Lil Ashley thought to herself.
"I also want to thank an old friend of mine, Mistress Milla. Me and her dated for a short time before I was put into..." he gulped, trying not to mention the organization that ruined his mind.
"I understand, Justin. I'm just glad you apologized. I'm also glad to be here without transphobic comments."
"Wait, you're trans?" the English girl interrupted.
"Uh, yes?" Milla replied, feeling a bit uncomfortable with that remark.
"Yo, I couldn't even tell. You're pretty hot, you know? You look even sexier than Polly."
The Russian frowned, not sure if she was serious or if she was being sarcastic.
"Hey, Milla? I think you should hang out with her. You two could be good friends.." Justin said, butting in.
"Y-Yeah. She seems like my type." the transgender Russian replied, looking at the English girl in a romantic way. She definitely had some feelings for her, almost as if she were part of him, the old him. Milla Loveimp may have been JD's other half all this time.. She might have a better chance than I ever did. So much potential...
Although they had a rocky history, it was good to know that she still respected him even after all this time. Considering that Nadia wasn't here with her, it was pretty obvious this was for the sake of a casual gathering.
"One more special thanks goes to Ms. Candace Crush. Candy, I'm glad you and Nikki are friends. You've really helped shape up the nerd's personal life. The ThikkNikk64 streams are definitely entertaining, to say the least. They aren't dried up, unlike some other ones I know." he said, referring to the Waffleslam streams.
"Mmhmm! Thank you, sweetheart. I'm thinkin about moving here. Lots of handsome men here with real big dicks!" the stripper said in a cheerful tone.
Candace moving to Commotion City? Ha, that'll be the day!
"Anyways, thank you, EVERYONE, for showing up. Cheers!"
"CHEERS!"
Almost everyone took one shot of whiskey. Hopefully, Audrey didn't spike it with roofies this time. He then turned on a remix of Goodbye Almond Eyes by Tokyo Rose out of the speakers. It was party time.
The Halloween Party officially kicked off. JD was already buzzed out of his mind, feeling happy for once.
"Agh! This shit's great." he shouted at the top of his lungs. Though, some of the guests were noticing the change of tone in his voice.
"Uh, you feeling okay, Sweet Cheeks?" Ashley asked, seeing the sudden change in his behavior.
Shit, another slip up.
"Ugh... Y-Yeah. I just have a slight cold, that's all." he stated, readjusting his voice again.
The English girl looked at him, getting a feeling that he wasn't feeling too well (in a mental kind of way).
"Right..." she said, continuing to carry on with the night, dancing next to Milla. It didn't seem too important for this young supermodel, though it was a tad concerning.
You fucking asshole. Get a grip on yourself.
"I'm trying, man. But you need to do the same. I'm not the only one sharing this body." he said underneath his breath, addressing his other half.
Suddenly, Candace came into the house with an unexpected visitor.
"Um, Candy? What is that?" JD asked, not knowing where this sudden guest showed up from.
"It's a doggy!" the stripper said, having a large dog on a homemade leash.
The canine in question looked to be an obese pit bull of sorts. He was panting, obviously in desperate need of water. Damn, he looks pretty thirsty. Not my responsibility to hydrate that mutt.
"I'm gonna gets him some water, if that's okay." Candace said.
He nodded. "Do what you have to do. Just make sure he doesn't shit on the carpet. I just vacuumed."
"Oh, don't worry none about that. I'm real good with doggies."
Heh, yeah. Considering you have the mentality of one. Why does that dog look a little familiar?
As everyone was dancing the night away, Justin began thinking about something. Nora's here. I gotta ask her if she can sell me another bag of cocaine.
"Hey, Nora?" he said, pulling the Latina to the side.
"Yeah?" she said, still wearing the Cheech Marin outfit.
"Can I talk to you for a minute?"
She agreed. He led her to his bedroom with the door cracked to have a private conversation.
"What's up, JD?" she asked, wondering what this was all about.
He put his hands together, giving her a blunt look.
"I'm gonna need another bag of snow." he said, asking her to hook him up with more drugs.
"What?" Nora exclaimed. "I just sold you a big bag last week. You didn't snort all of it already, did you?"
He frowned, knowing she wasn't gonna like what he was about to say.
"Tiffany found my stash and got rid of it."
The Latina facepalmed. "Ugh, JD..."
"I'm sorry, Nora. What else can I say? Her and Audrey were being nosy and they found it in my top drawer."
She shook her head, thinking this was all very irresponsible.
"So, can you hook me up or not?"
"J, I know you like me and you care about me and my financial struggles, but I don't like selling you cocaine, alright?"
What the fuck?
"What do you mean you don't like selling me cocaine? You've done it with a lot of other people before."
"Listen, it's nothing against you. I'm just trying to keep you safe. You know some of the people I work with are harassing us, right? Alonzo even threatened to come into town and murder my cousin."
What...
"Alonzo?" he asked, not aware of the person she was referring to.
"Yeah. Marlena's brother. Runs a crack business down in Florida. He's been blackmailing me into selling all of his coke or else someone's gonna pay."
Justin then remembered something Marlena briefly said last year during the time when Vinnie was sick with the 'Omegsilon' flu variant. She mentioned Alonzo and how he was a sociopath.
"What are you doing working for Alonzo?" he asked, wanting to know more about Nora's double life.
"sigh Ever since I quit working for that bitch Brooke, I needed to find another way of making money. It all started with taking jewelry and selling it, then it turned into doing other shit. But it wasn't good enough. So, Marlena hooked me up with doing a job for her brother. He sent me some cocaine to sell to the locals over here. If I don't sell it and give him his cut of the money on time, he's coming over here."
The amount of fear in her voice was definitely surreal. Nora was always the tough, badass tomboy he had met on Inna De Poona over a year ago. She never took shit from anybody. However, it seemed as though she had met her match.
"So, what does this have to do with me?" he asked, not knowing why she was telling him all of this.
"Because, J. I'm concerned for your safety. And honestly, I don't really feel comfortable selling this stuff to you. I know you're like, mentally disturbed or whatever. It ain't good."
He shook his head, not really caring about any of that.
"Sorry, Nora. But this is my house. This is business." he said, trying to convince her otherwise.
"I know, I know. And trust me, I would sell it to you regardless. However, word on the street is that there's some bandits trying to rob his coke from me. I can't have anyone stealing the good shit to make a profit that isn't for him."
Percy...
"Ah, whatever. Sorry for pestering you."
She saw the look on his face. She knew he was disappointed. However, she reached under her orange beanie and grabbed a tiny bag with a white substance in it.
"You can have this." she said, handing him a small bag.
"Are you serious?" he said. "It's so small."
That's what she said...
"It'll be a bag just for tonight. I know you wanna party. This will definitely do it."
"This is chump-change, Nora."
"It's all I got. Take it, or leave it."
JD looked at the bag, realizing it was enough for the occasion. Imma take it and give her double.
He smiled, glad she somewhat gave in. He knew she needed the money. So, he handed her two hundred dollars in cash.
"Woah, are you for real?" she said, amazed at the large amount he was giving her for such a small bag.
"Yeah. You deserve it."
The Latina smiled, hugging him.
"I appreciate it. Just be careful from now on, okay? I don't want you to get in trouble if Tiffany finds it."
He understood completely. Looks like I need to find a better hiding spot.
"Thank you for the stuff." he said.
Suddenly, the stripper wearing the police uniform came in. She had a feeling there was cocaine in the room.
"THE COCAINE?!" she shouted.
They both looked at her, being caught off guard that Candace just randomly barged in to shout that word knowing damn well that Tiffany was in the house.
"Shut up, Candace!" he said, trying to make her keep her voice down.
"Oops, sorry. I kinda smelled some of that stuff coming from here."
"Wait, what?" he said, now concerned that his room wreaked of coke.
"I have the smell of a doggy. I know what's in here just by smelling it. Ya got some pretty good shampoo in there. Lavender!"
Ugh, Candace, you ARE a dog. A stupid, clueless dog.
"Speaking of dogs: Where's that pit you brought in here earlier?" he asked, not seeing it on the leash.
"Uh... Oh poop!" she said, realizing she let it off the leash.
JD shook his head, still amazed by her stupidity.
"So, is there cocaine in here? Can I have some?" the stripper asked, still saying it a bit too loud.
"Get in here and close the damn door." he ordered, trying to make sure his lover wasn't around.
She did exactly as he said. The stripper then looked at the item, wanting to get some of the good stuff in his possession.
"So, can I have some?" she said, pointing at the small bag in his hands.
He looked at it, knowing it would be rude to exclude her from having some. He did pay double the price, after all.
"Sure." he said, pouring her a small amount to snort right then and there.
"MMM! That's good." Candace said, feeling the high of the white stuff going into her system. She let out a huge chuckle, now feeling great.
Suddenly, the dog came in, pushing the door open and coming into the room.
"Oh, there ya are, Sparkles." Candace said.
He looked at her. "Sparkles?"
"Mmhmm! That's the name I gave him. He looks a little bit like that doggy I seen on TV. I think on the foot channel?"
"Don't you mean the FOOD channel?" Nora said, correcting the naïve stripper.
"Oh, right! The food channel. Silly me."
The Latina shook her head. I think I know who this dog used to belong to...
Justin then snorted the rest of the bag, ready to get his party on. He had already drank two shots of alcohol. The cocaine made the experience even better.
"Let's party."
