"YOU LOOK SO CUTE!" Rosalyn and her mother were gushing in glee as they stare at Dustin in his ghostbuster costume.
"Oh, I want to see those pearls." Claudia held the camera up to take pictures of her son. When he smiles, she screams, yes. "Who gonna call?" She sang as she kept taking pictures.
"Dusty, you and the guys are going to be the hit of the school." Lyn bounces on her heels at how cute he looked. "We have to get a picture of all of them together before they go trick or treating tonight." She turns to her mother.
"Oh my god, yes that will be so cute. I will save some film." Claudia lowers the camera to stop taking pictures.
"I got to meet the guys." Dustin slowly edges towards the door.
"Okay, see you, honey." His mom waves to him as he walks out of the house. "Why aren't you wearing your costume to school?" She turns to her daughter.
"Mom only little kids do that." Lyn shook her head.
"But, you are going to dress up for that party?" She tilts her head, not understanding teenager logic.
"Don't worry. I let you take loads of pictures before I leave for the party. I love you." She gave her mom a kiss on the cheek and pat Meows on the head.
"I love you too. Have a good day at school." Her mom calls out to her. Lyn grabs her backpack and keys before walking out the door.
"Are you going to this Halloween party?" Billy leans against the locker beside Lyn's.
"Might as well." She shrugs, not even looking at him. She was trading her chemistry textbook for her history textbook.
"I get what you mean; there isn't much to do in this hick town." He put his fists in his jacket and cracks his neck. He was trying to control his temper at this broad not looking at him when he was talking to her. "So you got a date for this thing." He licks his lips.
Lyn closes her locker and turns to face him. "You're new in town, so I'll fill you in. Tina's party isn't like prom. It's more like a night club. You don't go there with a date, you leave with one." "You speak from experience." He was able to relax now that his target's eyes were on him.
"Not personally, but I've been to enough of them for the free booze." She informed him. She didn't want him thinking that she was easy to take to bed. She didn't have anything against girls who were, but they had to put up with jerks who thought they had a right to them. Just looking at Billy let her know that he was that type of jerk.
"You'll save me dance then." He demands.
"Sure." She shrugs. With her Marilyn Monroe wig, she wouldn't be easy to spot in the crowd of teens dressed in costumes.
"Let's get to class." He yanked her bag from her and throws it over his shoulder. He wraps an arm around her waist and led her to their history class. That was the thing about going to school in a small town; you end up sharing a lot of classes with people you don't like.
If it wasn't for Carol glaring at her from down the hall, Lyn would remove his arm from her. Since she was glaring, Lyn shot Carol a smug look and move closer, so her side as push up against Billy's. For Lyn, there was no better way to start the school day then pissing up Carol.
The soundtrack for Gentleman Prefers Blondes was on the record play. The song Diamonds Are a Girl Best Friend was playing as Lyn applied her makeup. She gave herself rosy cheeks and red lips. She applied pink and white eyeshadow and went a little heavy on the mascara.
Lyn slips on her long strapless pink dress that had a large bow on the back right above her butt. She slips on a pair of silk pink gloves that went up to her armpits. She put on her costume jewelry even if she had the real stuff she wouldn't wear it to one of Tina's wild parties. She put on matching 'diamond' earrings, a choker, and large clunky bracelets on each wrist. She slips on her black open toe high heels. She already had her hair pin-up and the wig cap on, so lastly she carefully put on the short curly blonde wig that was style like Marilyn's hair was in the movie.
She made her way to the living room where her mom was waiting for her. "Oh my god, you look so beautiful. My baby girl is all grown up." She tears up.
"Thank you mom," She smiles.
"Alright, Ms. Monroe light, camera, action." She held the camera up. Lyn put on her hips with a pout on her lips for her first pose then she blows a kiss at the camera. For her last pose, she put both her hands above her head. "My baby a natural," She praises.
"Oh stop." Lyn waves her hand in a mocking shameful way.
"Before you leave, I have something to give you." Claudia puts the camera down on the counter and pulls a condom out from her purse.
"Mom," Lyn screams out of embarrassment. "Why are you giving me this? It's not like this is my first party."
"I know, but this is the first party you been too with boys you are close too." Claudia waves the condom in her face.
"What are you talking about mom?" Lyn took a step back from her mother.
"Steve and Jon," She said like it was obvious.
"No mom, no. Steve is Nancy's boyfriend and Jonathan is Jonathan." She shook her head.
"Please, I know you think I'm naive but I see the way Steve looks at you. I've also seen the way Jon looks at Nancy." Lyn's jaw drops, not knowing that her mom was taking that much notice to them.
"Mom, if I take the condom wills you stop talking." She took the condom from her hand.
"Do you know how to use it?" Claudia asks.
"I'll figure it out. Bye mom," Lyn ran out of the house as fast as she could in her heels. She took the car keys out from in between her boobs and got into Darling. She put the condom in the glove department and drove to Tina's house.
Lyn was smiling when she got close parking despite the fact that she showed up when the party was already in full swing. She got out of the car and looks up to the sky, "Praise Marilyn!"
She walks into the house to make her way to the kitchen where she assumes the alcohol would be. She was right there was a stack of red cups next to a bowl of spiked punch that had a vodka bottle next to it. She fills up a cup with the punch and took a sip before pouring some more vodka in it. If she ends up having to sleep in her car because she was too drunk to drive, so be it.
She took sips from her cup as she went looking for Steve and Nancy. She found them standing up against the wall. "Hello, Lana and Joel," She smiles at them.
"Well hello, Miss Monroe. I didn't recognize you for a second, Lyn." Steve laughs.
"The name's Lorelei Lee." She introduces herself as the character.
"Your costume is amazing, Lyn." Nancy smiled at her, but Lyn notices it didn't quite meet her eyes. But, Lyn expects she would be like this. She was always depressed the day after having dinner with the Holland's.
"So is yours, you look exactly like Lana." She complimented her back. Nancy had it down from the hair to the shoes.
"What about me?" Steve puff out his chest.
She looked him up and down. He was wearing a black sport coat with a black shirt underneath, jeans, and black ray bane. It was what Tom Cruise wore in the movie, but it was a common outfit for guys. "You should keep the glasses on and stick close to Nancy," Lyn told him. Steve pouted while Nancy laughed.
Their mood was brought back down when they heard the chants of Billy coming from outside. The man of the hour came through the backdoor wearing a leather jacket with no shirt underneath, a tight pair of jeans, and fingerless gloves. He seems happy to dancing his way through the crowd until he saw their little group. With a cigarette in his mouth, he quickly made his way to them. Tommy wearing a Cobra Kai Dojo costume and some other drunken idiot was right behind him.
Billy stood in front of them and stares down Steve like he was ready to fight. "We got ourselves a new Keg King, Harrington." Tommy slaps Billy on the back and gave Steve a cocky smile.
"Yeah, eat it, Harrington!" The drunken idiot laughs in his face.
Steve, who was never one to back down from a fight, took his ray ban off to match Billy's glare. Nancy rolls her eyes and walks away. Lyn pushes Steve in the direction Nancy went. "Don't worry about these idiots, go get your girl." Steve glared at the guys for a second longer before going after his girlfriend.
Lyn went to follow him when Billy wraps his hand around her silk cover arm to pull her back. "Don't you owe me a dance?" He whispers into her ear.
She looks at his abs and chest. One dance wouldn't be so bad. "Let's get this over with." She rolls her eyes and made her way into the crowd of dancing teenagers. Billy was right behind her, his friends slapping him on the back.
It wasn't too bad dancing with Billy. The music was too loud for her to hear anything he was saying. She was enjoying dancing against his rock hard body. Although, she could do without Tommy and his idiot pals whistling and leering at them or the drunken girls that kept trying to shove her away. If it wasn't for Billy holding onto her hips, she would have fallen over a couple of times.
Lyn was giggling as Billy twirls her around. The crowd screams of ohs and gasp put a stop to everyone partying. Lyn turns around to see that Nancy's shirt was covered in red punch and Steve with a face full of regret. "What the hell?" Nancy yells at him before storming off. Steve follows her calling her name.
Lyn went to go after them, but Billy wraps an arm around her waist to pull her back against his chest. "Don't worry, they'll work it out." He began to leave a trail of kisses along her shoulder to her neck.
Having had a few drinks that were more vodka then punch Lyn leans into his touch. He grabs the empty red cup from her hand. "Get her a refill." He held the cup out to the group of guys who were enjoying kissing his ass. Of course, Tommy was quick to jump up and do as he was told.
Lyn turns around so she was facing him and whisper in his ears. "I think he gets off on being someone's bitch."
"That would explain his bossy bitch of a girlfriend." Billy chuckled.
Lyn laid her head on his shoulder as she giggled. She stares at his neck that was right in front of her. It all of a sudden looking very tempting to her, she leans in and began nibbling and sucking on his neck. "Fuck." He moans out and his grip on her hips tighten. He grabs her chin and pulls her off him. She smirks at the dark hickie she left on his neck. He tilts her head up and pushes his mouth on hers. He tasted like alcohol and cigarettes, but Lyn still found herself enjoying the hot, wet, sloppy kiss. She wraps her arms around his neck to tug on his mullet, making him give her a slap on the ass.
Lyn let out a yip of surprises when she was being pulled off Billy. "Jonathan." She throws her arms around her friend.
"I need you to check on Nancy. Steve just storms out of the bathroom and out the door." He wonders if he was getting through to her as she stares up at him with glassy eyes.
Billy pulls Lyn back to his side. "Look, man, you want to check on that bitch, do it yourself?" He glared at the other boy.
"Yeah, Byers don't worry about her. There a lot of other girls who like taking pictures." Tommy smirks.
"I'll check on Nance." Lyn slur as she slips out of Billy's arms. She made her way to the bathroom. Jonathan ran after her to stop her from stumbling into anything. Rosalyn walks into the bathroom to see Nancy scrubbing her shirt aggressively, but the red wasn't going away. "Are you alright, Nancy?" Lyn asks, eyeing her friend with concern.
"No, I'm not alright and you're a hypocrite." Nancy literally growls at her.
"Okay Nancy, let go home you're wasted and you're not a nice drunk." She reaches to grab her arm.
"No, you're a hypocritical bitch. All last year you were mad at everyone for not caring about Will. You said that everyone was only fake caring. But, look at you now. You don't even fake care about Barbara, you bitch." She shoves Lyn into the wall behind her.
The pain of her back hitting the wall seems to sober her up. "I don't argue with drunks, now let's get you home. You can sleep this off and we'll talk about this like grown-ups in the morning." She hissed grab her arm with more force than needed and drag her out of the bathroom.
Jon was leaning against the wall by the bathroom waiting for them. "Is she okay?" He eyes Nancy drunk state with concern.
"Just get her home. She's a nasty drunk." She pushes the wasted girl into Jon's arm. He held her like he wasn't sure what to do with her. "Take her home." She repeats slowly. He nodded his head and carried the girl out.
Lyn looks over at Billy and saw him grinding with Vicki. She decides to look for Steve. She went outside to see if his car was there. "Uh, there it is." She walks over to the BMW. She got into the passenger seat. Steve looks over at her with red eyes. "You're crying." She felt herself tearing up. Maybe Nancy didn't sober her up completely.
"I'm not crying." He wipes his eyes.
"Whatever Nancy said, she doesn't mean. She called me a hypocritical bitch." Despite the words she was saying, she let out a happy sigh as she leans into the cold leather seat. It felt amazing on her hot skin.
"She said that it's like we are in love. That everything about us is bullshit." Steve stared at the steering wheel.
"She's drunk and upset about Barb. She doesn't mean it. I'm drunk and I made out with Billy. I didn't mean that." She hums thinking about the kiss. She would regret it tomorrow, but she sure did enjoy it.
"You made out with Billy." He gasps horrified.
"We should ditch this party. We can go to my house, eat some ice cream and watch scary movies." Lyn bounce in her seat.
"I'm not a girl. I don't eat ice cream and cry my eyes out when I get my heartbroken." Steve rolls his eyes.
"I know, that is why we are watching scary movies. They're very manly." She beams with pride for taking him being a male into factor.
Lyn walks into the dark house with Steve behind her. "You sit on the couch. I'll go change." She points to the living room. She went into her room to change out of her costume and into some cotton shorts and a wife-beater. She took off her wig and the cap. She walks to the kitchen to grab two cartons of ice cream and two spoons.
"Do you want rocky road or Neapolitan?" She walks into the living room to ask Steve.
"We can share both." He told her.
"Oh, good idea," She put both cartons and spoons down on the table. She went to put in the Friday the 13th VSH tape. Steve picked up the rocky road as he stares at her hair all pinned up. He wonders how long it took her to do that to her hip-length hair.
Lyn sat down on the couch next to Steve and put a spoon full of strawberry ice cream in her mouth before beginning to take out the hair barrettes. "Oh, let me help," He put down the carton to help her let down her hair.
They were able to get them all out during the commercials. "The movies starting," Lyn grabs the two cartons. She put the rocky road in his lap and the Neapolitan in hers. She leans into his sides as the movie started.
