Shane recovering from her fainted fright. Shane slowly begins to open her eyes and moaning from the bit of pain she had in her head. Shane slowly heard voices of Rita and Oliver arguing,

"I told you this was a bad idea Oliver O'Toole"

"Rita, I already feel horrible enough it was not my intention to scare in this point."

Then Norman chimed in "my cousin he hated clowns I try to scare him out of it but i scared them so much I made him faint. It was not my intention to scare like that like it wasn't Oliver intent scare Shane who is now awaking from her faint."

Oliver and Rita heads immediately turn to see Shane slowly getting up from her feet. Oliver rush by side knowing she would stumble, Shane loses her footing and stumbles but she was happy to Oliver covered in chalk dust catch her fall stumbling into his arms rather the hard floor.

Oliver instructs Norman to get a chair and for Rita to get wet warm cloth for Shane headAs

Norman got her chair for Shane to rest on. Oliver puts Shane down on the chair. Oliver asks to go the mailbox mini market and get water and aspirin. Norman nods his he as he told he left to go the mini mart but he stop to ask but he saw in Norman's face he want Rita to go with him so he said,

"You can wait for Rita outside Norman. as I need to talk Ms. McIenery alone"

Norman nodded And left to await for Rita. Oliver grab a yoohoo for both him and Shane. Shane was feeling much more like herself giggles seeing Oliver like a ghost. Shane had tell him,

"Do guys sure pull off an amazing trick, you know how to scare people Oliver, well done"

Oliver hands Shane a yoohoo and adds,

"So that means I prove myself that I am indeed scary."

Shane confused his was being cryptic,

"Oliver, why did you have to prove your scary to me?"

Oliver tried to impersonate Shane's voice,

"This is not over Mr. O'Toole, you don't scare me."

"Oh I see, forgive me, Oliver I was just upset you forcing to me take down the decorations."

"You are forgiven, Ms. McIenery, now you have to forgive me, for making you faint that wasn't my intention, I used my regular voice"

Shane interrupted and added, "My mind was so full with fear my voice recognition malfunction so no forgiveness I deserve to be scared, so was that Vincent Todd story true did someone actually die here."

Oliver chuckled "No, nobody died here, but story did originate from my grandfather he always told me the story on Halloween when i was before trick or treat."

Shane wondered, "Young, Oliver O'Toole, used to trick or treat may I asked, what do you dress up as"

Oliver asked, "Take a guess, I am sure you might know well enough to know."

Shane giving her puppy roll eye look the look that got him to dance on several occasions.

She gave this look while asking, "Can you give me a hint?"

Oliver smirking as set his yoohoo down on his desk took Shane's as sat it beside his, Oliver held out his hand Shane took his hand and she was swept by rush of Oliver spining her then diping her during the dip, said best british accent he mustard out, "My name, is Bond, James. Bond."

Shane giggles, "Let me guess, the Perice Bronson, James Bond."

Oliver ocrrected Shane, "Actually, Ms. McIenery, Shawn Conenry, "

Oliver smiled he slowly lifted her back up, the dip lasted long than Shane expected as the blood rush to her head she started to feel faint again, but once again Oliver was there to catch her and pick her up her feet.

But something happen as Oliver pick Shane from her dizzy spell, not only did her catch into his arms, but they caputured each other's gaze at another. Oliver and Shane were so close in doing to something that change their relationship forever, but even thought Oliver was tempted to kiss here just once before when they dance to "And So it Goes." he had self control he still loved his wife, Holly, but so much time passed, so much he changed he got to know Shane more as person who trusted, respected and admired. This time, this embrace was different as their face drew closer but no lips have touched on the slightest bit. Their eyes on the verge of closing, Oliver sliently praying for God to step or someone just come in say,

"Oh my, Sorry for interputting " Rita comes in the hands dripping wet with luke warm cloth.

Oliver and Shane quickly step a part from each other as they both said, "No at all." Oliver. goes to Rita, to get the cloth, he tells her,

"Thank you, Rita"

"Oliver, please don't cross the line with Shane not yet, "

"Rita...I" Oliver trying to explain

"No need to explain, I know something is going on between you two, I could tell from first time you went after when she left. but Oliver you are still married, to Holly, reslove that first let go Holly, then move on with Shane. I will not my two best friend ruin the best relationship they ever had becuae of lust I won't have Oliver."

Oliver hugs Rita tells her thanks and informs the Norman is waiting for her mailbox mimi mart but for Rita to tell Shane needs no aspirin as she is fine now.

Rita shakes her rushes to Shane to give her a hug telling, "I am glad, you are okay, see at the party."

After Rita leaves, Oliver stands at distance from Shane his back is facing her, Shane grabs her coat and suitcase walks passed Oliver, and says,

The crowd began start moving apart to find a dance partner to slow dance to the song "The Words " by Christina Perri.

The crowd part, lights deem, but spotlight over the dancing couples including Norman and Rita, starting to dance instutmental part of the shane , then Oliver spots the here she was, Ms. Shane McIenry, dressed as Marilyn Monroe short white dress, short blond curly hair, red lip stick that stuck out her lips like a sore thumb.

The song begins,

"All of the lights land on you

The rest of the world fades from you

Oliver walks towards, Shane noticed him, but she pretended as if didn't, she to come to her, and he did there was standing in front of her as he asked,

"Excuse me, miss but you mind I ask the host for a dance."

"Actually, called me Bond, Oliver Bond tonight, Miss."

"Well, nice you to meet you, Oliver Bond, I am Marilyn McIenry, yes I be to dance with one of my many honored guests."

Shane takes Oliver's hand as they danced, to following lyics

"And all of the noise I hear inside

Restless and loud, unspoken and wild

And all that you need to say

To make it all go away

It's that you feel the same way too

And I know

The scariest part is letting go

'Cause love is a ghost you can't control

I promise you the truth can't hurt us now

So let the words slip out of your mouth"

Shane lends close to him and whisphers,

"Oliver, Happy Halloween, and I want to to know, I am willing to wait for you, when you are ready to let go."

"Shane, for right now, I don't want to rush, as what have now means the world to me, just be patient, God will provided, all in his due time. Can you trust in that for now, at least."

"I trust you, Oliver, and yes I trust in God, too, "
