Let's just say this chapter is inspired by post halloween depression and the song she walks right through me by Alex Day :D

"ANDI COME ON IT'S ALREADY DARK OUT!" Henry shouted at me, while I was stairs. I looked in the mirror and adjusted the sunglasses on my forehead. I let out a sigh as I slid down the staircase and landed gracefully next to Henry. We were dressed as Doc Brown and Marty Mcfly from Back to the Future. Henry was Doc and I was Marty for some reason. Apparently I was the only person he wanted to do this with so of course I agreed to it.

"Ready to go" I wrote handing him a tote bag I had on me. He nodded.
"Awww aren't you two adorable?" our mom squealed when she saw us. Henry and I smiled at her as we slowly tried to inch out the door before she got out her camera and decided to take pictures.
"Hang on don't leave yet, I need to get a picture of you two" she stopped us. We turned around and looked at her, and posed for the pictures.
"Mom I think he's about to burst" I signed to her. She gave me a smile.
"Come back in two hours alright?" she said to Henry.
"Yes I know come on Andi" he said grabbing my hand and dragging me out the door. We stopped by several houses making sure to get candy from all of them.

"So how come you haven't been at school for awhile?" Henry asked as we walked to the next house.
"Been sick" I wrote. He gave me a look.
"You're avoiding Flounder aren't you?"
"You mean Finn"
"That too"

"No why would I be avoiding him?" I tried to lie.
"Because he obviously likes you. He always has even in the fairytale world he did. But you never liked him but you still wanna be friends with him even though he was jealous of you and Hook"
"Sorry what?" I tried to comprehend that all.

"It's all in the book, the book about everyone here" he explained.
"I might have to take a look at that later" I wrote. He smiled at that, he seemed glad at the fact that I was finally going to try and understand what he was always talking about.

"Do not go up to that man's house he's giving away tea" this one little girl tried to stop us as we were about to walk up to Jefferson's house. Henry and I smiled at each other and walked up anyways. I knocked on the door as my friend Jefferson opened it. Henry didn't have to say anything as he handed him a little teabag, with a smile on his face. We were about to leave until Jefferson stopped me.
"Hang on a moment, for you I have the extra chocolate, hot chocolate. Since you are a weirdo that does not drink tea" he smiled as he handed the little mix to me.
"Awwwww thank you"I mouthed.
"Henry do you mind if I talk to her for a moment?" he asked.
"Sure" Henry agreed as he ran off. Jefferson leaned against the doorway.
"So how's she been?" he asked about Grace.
"She's been good. I haven't seen her lately because I've been missing work but she's an excellent diver" I informed him.

"Andi we have 45 minutes left. We have to run for it, I heard they're giving out full bars two blocks away" Henry grabbed my arm.

"We'll talk later" I wrote. He nodded and I waved at Jefferson as I ran off with Henry.

Killian had no clue where he was. One moment he was falling asleep on his ship, in his quarters and the next he woke up to find himself in this strange place. He saw children dressed in strange clothes, it was dark out and there were orange lights everywhere illuminating the streets. What was he doing here? Was this a dream? Normally when he had dreams they had been filled with her ever since the curse took her away, but this? This was something he couldn't even imagine. He couldn't even see her here. Not to mention it all felt so real as the harsh autumn wind blew through him making him feel a chill. Then he saw her. She was with a little boy holding his hand as they ran towards him.

What is she wearing? he smiled to himself at Ariel's odd fashion statement. Was she supposed to be some sort of sailor? Could she see him? After years of only being able to see her in his dreams would she finally look back at him? Would he finally hear her voice that he had been about to hear moments before she was taken from him? Maybe this wasn't a dream. Maybe somehow the curse had been broken and she was coming back to him. That must have been why she was running towards him. He prepared himself for her to jump on him and throw her pale lanky arms around his neck but just as she approached him, she walked right through him, like he was a specter. She wasn't even fazed by this. In fact he was pretty sure, she hadn't noticed him at all.
"Ariel" he tried to call out to her. She turned around at the mention of her name with a confused look on her face.
"What's wrong Andi?" the little boy asked her. Killian watched as she looked straight through him. To her, she was probably just seeing an empty space on the pavement. She just looked back at the boy and smiled as she shrugged her shoulders and they ran off again.

I opened up the front door carrying Henry on my back.
"We're home" he mumbled as I shut the door with my foot.
"You had fun then?" Our mom asked. I gave her a look that said you think? I dropped Henry down on the ground and he trudged up the stairs with his candy bag in hand.

"You better let me check that before you eat any" Regina commented. Henry just let out a groan. She then looked at me and smiled.
"So you have any plans for tonight?" she asked. I shook my head and just then someone knocked on the door. I opened it to find Finn's roommates girlfriend Rachel at the door, along with my other friend Marie.
"We're kidnapping you" Rachel told me as she grabbed my arm and pulled me out of the house.

"Be home before I wake up, tomorrow morning" Regina told me as we left the house. I pretended to yawn as an excuse to not go to wherever these two were dragging me.
"Oh you're full of haggis if you think we're that dumb" Marie snapped at me with her Scottish accent. I slumped my shoulders.
"Come on this'll be fun. You never go out and party with us and besides Eugene asked me to ask a favor from you"
"He wants me to make up with Finn doesn't he?" I wrote as we walked.

"Andi you broke the guys heart" Rachel commented as she twirled her long blonde hair between her fingers.
"I know but he should know I don't want us to be like that"
"See this is why I decided to just go vegan from Men for awhile" Marie smiled at me.
"I don't want to go" I complained not feeling ready to face Finn. Why wasn't he the one apologizing? Why did I have to be the bigger person in all of this? He kissed me!

"You don't have too all you have to do is apologize" Rachel sighed as we came to Granny's Diner which was filled with people our age. We walked inside and looked around the room. I found Finn talking to this girl named Jaz in a booth. I slowly walked up to him. When he spotted me his conversation with Jaz completely stopped.
"I have to go do something" Jaz said as she noticed the awkward tension between us. Once she left Finn and I just stared at each other for awhile.
"I'm sorry" Finn was the first one to talk. Whoa that was unexpected. Rachel was completely building me up for the apology, but instead he was the one doing it?

"It's alright, maybe we can still be friends" I forgave him. He got this look on his face and I felt my heart pounding in my chest.

"We can't be as close as we used to be. I mean yes we can still be friends but not best friends" he explained.

"What?" I asked.
"You may have not felt anything from that kiss, but I did. And you don't obviously feel anything. I can't get any closer to you, now that I know you might hurt me again" I felt awestruck. I mean I understood what he meant but, it just seemed unreal. He was my best friend and now I felt like I had no one. All I had now were just a load of acquaintances. Who was going to be there to understand me? Who was going to always make me laugh?
"Excuse me for a moment" I said as I felt tears building up.
"Andi wait-" he tried to stop me as I ran out. Thank goodness he didn't follow me.
Ok don't cry yet. Hold it in till you get home I told myself. I accidentally bumped into someone. I looked up and saw this man dressed in some sort of pirate costume with a hook for a hand. Despite the costume he had a gorgeous, rugged look about him and eyes that were the color of the ocean.
"Sorry" I wrote I started to walk off but he touched my arm for a moment to get my attention. I turned back towards him. He looked at me amazed.
"You can see me?" he asked with a smile on his face.

"Did you have a bit to much tonight mate?" I wrote, wanting to walk away now. He just stuttered for words as he had this huge smile on his face.

She could see him, she could actually see him. Just for this one moment in this dream of his, they were actually together again. He looked down at her face and saw she had been crying. He wanted to wipe those tears away and throttle any man that made her like that but knew he couldn't since she still didn't recognize him.

"I'm sorry, I must have you confused with someone else" he had to painfully lie to her. She just nodded at him and sniffled a bit.
"Happy Halloween then" she wrote on her little parchment book. She gave him an attempt at a smile before running off again.

I cried into my pillow as I lay down on my living room couch.
"Andi? Are you alright?" Regina asked as she walked into the living room in her pjs. I looked up from my pillow shook my head and just buried it back in again. She sat down beside me and let me rest my head in her lap as she stroked my hair and let me explain what happened.
"I lost my best friend. It's my fault, I should have said something and let him know that I wasn't interested in him but I didn't. I feel terrible. I broke his heart"
"He's your best friend he just needs more time. You'll both be fine in a little while. Don't feel bad about anything, you have a good heart. Even if it's broken right now it's better to have a broken heart then none at all" she told me. I just let out a shaky breath and tried to forget about everything that happened tonight

Maybe tomorrow will be better I tried to tell my self as I fell asleep with my head on my mom's lap.

The moment she saw she was asleep Regina picked up Andi's head from her lap, stood up, rested Andi's head back down on the couch, and got her a blanket before leaving the room to make a phone call. She went to her office and dialed Finn's number.
"Hello" Finn answered.
"I told you to take her back tonight" she snapped at him through gritted teeth.
"Well first you wanted me to go after her and that didn't work out, sorry if my feelings got in the way" he snapped back.
"I don't care about your feelings. Just make sure she comes back to you before she starts thinking about you know who again and once she does you know she won't even notice your existence" she whispered.

Killian found himself in a big house after running into Ariel out on the street. He looked down and saw her again. He smiled at her sleeping form and knelt down next to her. He brushed some hair out of her face that looked like it was irritating her. As his hand pushed a strand behind her ear she grabbed onto it and for the first time tonight she smiled. It was a special smile though. It was the smile she usually wore for him, whenever she saw him. She held his hand close to her. He laughed at this as he slowly slid it out of her grasp.
"Look at you, you truly don't remember anything" he realized. He suddenly felt this sensation as if he was being pulled back by something. Was he waking up from this dream now? As quickly as he could he leaned down and kissed her cheek.
"Sleep well, my little mermaid" he told her before disappearing. A moment after he was gone Andi rolled over opened her eyes a bit and said
"Killian?" she had no idea what that name meant but for some reason that was the first thing that was on her mind as she started to wake up.
