October 7th Grade:
I adjusted the pointed hat on top of my head and smiled at my reflection. I had on a black robe with a purple lace cape with intricate patterns on it. My eyelids had deep violet eyeshadow on and I had on pink lip gloss. My Mom had helped me with the eyeliner and mascara. My witch's hat was the final touch.
"Finally, let's go!" huffed Ashley dressed in a vampire outfit.
"Sheesh, I didn't take that long," I said. Ashley was just excited. This was the first year our parents were letting us go out trick or treating by ourselves. It was so exciting, we get to walk wherever we wanted without being followed or watched. We both had stocked up on shaving cream as well because everyone knows once you go on your own you get into shaving cream fights with whoever you meet. It's like a right of passage.
"You've been a witch for at least three years in a row, you would think that you would have getting ready down pat now," she said chuckling and sticking out her tongue at me. I just rolled my eyes and returned the gesture. It was like some weird friendship thing we did, it was childish, but we always did it. It's like a hug or a secret handshake, only no actual touching is involved.
"It needs to be perfect" I said following her out of my room and down the stairs to where my Dad was standing handing out a variety of candy to a bunch of toddlers at our door.
"Okay girls just remember to stay together and be back here by ten," my Mom said. We both nodded.
"And your to meet Glen at the park at 9:30 so you can all walk back together," she said and we nodded again.
Glen had already left dressed as a ninja with Aiden to meet some of his friends. Ashley and I were going to try and meet Madison, Stacey and Carmen near Madison's house and then walk up and down the streets.
We walked down the street pausing at the houses along the way until we reached Madison's. We rang the doorbell and she, Carmen and Stacey came tumbling outside. Carmen and Stacey were Thing 1 and Thing 2.
"Fitting guys," Ashley said to them and they chuckled. Madison was dressed as a genie with baggy blown out pants and a shirt cut mid drift so her stomach was showing. She's lucky we live in California or else she might've been just a tad bit cold.
"A witch again Spence?" Maddy asked chuckling and I just nodded.
"Girl, next year I am dressing you up. Okay?" I stared at her in fear, I doubted I would want to wear anything Madison chose out for me. We have very, very different taste in clothing. She saw my look and just laughed as she grabbed my hand and looped her arm through mine and pulled me along down the street.
We walked down her block turning the corner gaining candy as we went. I had a good sized load in my pillow case as we neared a street with kids running wild. There was shaving cream all over the ground and unfortunately for some on cars and front lawns. People were covered in it and throwing it at anything that moved. Silly string was spread out sporadically on trees and bushes and one house was even toilet papered. I didn't know if it was decoration or if someone had done it as a joke.
"Whoa," said Carmen before laughing as someone's ran past throwing shaving cream right in Stacey's face.
"Oh it's on!" Yelled Madison as well all grabbed our shaving cream cans with the tip melted so that it could spray farther and ran in different directions chasing people.
By the time we were done we were covered head to toe in white shaving cream. The stench was strong on us and I knew it would last a day or two.
The five of us were heading back to the corner where Stacey, Carmen and Madison would go back to Madison's house and Ashley and I would go to the park to meet Glen. As we approached a boy jumped in front of me so I screamed and jumped back dropping my bag of candy. The ninja scooped it up and ran away laughing.
"Glen!" I yelled as Ashley and I chased him to the park. By the time we reached him he was eating my candy quickly while sitting on swing and throwing some to Aiden.
I rushed over to him, "Hey come on give it back," I said and reached for my bag but he held it out of reach. I hated our height difference right now.
"Spence I didn't get any, so share," he said grabbing another piece and putting it in his pocket.
"No, that's your fault," I said as Ashley walked up beside me. He just shrugged. Ashley gave me her candy bag and waled closer to my brother who stared at her in confusion, then out of nowhere she pushed him backwards off the swing. She picked up my fallen candy bag and handed it silently to me.
Aiden and I were cracking up and Glen stood up brushing himself shocked.
"Wh-what?" he asked and Aiden just clapped him on the back as we started walking home, Ashley and I leading the way.
"Thanks," I said and she smiled her true smile, nose crinkling and all.
"No problem...plus it was worth it to see Glen on the ground," she said and we both laughed the entire way home. Glen learned one thing, don't mess with Ashley Davies.
