Gracie's POV

I got up at 7:30 and got ready for the day at Kinzville Academy, there are three schools in the quiet town of Kinzville. I am a 7th grader at the middle school, same as Ashley. Horton dropped me off at the main entrance.

"Bye sweetie" Horton called to me.

"Bye dad" I replied, before walking into find my friend.

Once inside I found Ashley sitting with her among the rest of the 7th grade.

"Hi Ashley"

"Hey Gracie"

"Are you excited about tonight!?"

"Pumped" I lied, hoping she would see right through me.

"Great!" I heard her reply, then our principal announced over the intercom.

"All student please report to your home-room class at this time, thank you"

I watched all the students quickly disperse as I walked with Ashley to our home room.

"Hi Mr. McPuggleson" I replied, stepping in.

"Why hi Gracie, please take your set; I assume you have your homework ready to turn in"

"Yes sir" I replied, taking my seat near the front; Ashley sitting right behind me.

I tried hard to listen to todays' lesson but my mind kept wondering back to the upcoming night which I still kind of dreaded.

When my dad came to pick me up that afternoon the first thing I did was got home was go up to my room, sat at my desk and quietly did my homework. It was about 7:30 at night when I finished, Ashley wasn't coming over until 8; but I decided to get my costume on and be prepared for whatever this night may bring good or bad.

That night I waited in the living room for Ashley's to Arrive so the night can begin, I made my way closer and closer to door as I heard her bother's car put up.

Once Ashley knocked on the door and I made sure I was ready we said goodbye to my dad and Ashley's brother and headed out into the night.
