"Oh look, Midge." Abby grabs a stuffed moose from the shelves. They were at the hospital's gift shop, getting things for Moose. He and Midge got attacked last night by the black hood who shot Moose a couple of times in the back.
"Aw, let's get it." She grabbed it. They paid for the toy and the flowers. They took that and the take out bag from Pops up to Moose's hospital room.
They stop in the doorway when they see Archie and Reggie were with him. "His eyes. They're green, right?" Her brother seems to be in the middle of a calm interrogation.
"They were blank. It was like there wasn't even a person behind them. He was like Michael Myers. He had the devil's eyes." Midge sighs. She walks over to her boyfriend's bed to grab his hand.
"You boys have no manners. Coming into a hospital room with no gifts, asking traumatic questions..." She glares at her brother as she puts the flowers on the nightstand. "...and eating his pudding." She snatches the empty pudding cup from Reggie and throws it in the trash.
"He doesn't like vanilla." He threw the plastic spoon away. "What you got in the bag?" He nods to the Pop's bag in her hand.
"Oh no, you don't. I order that." Moose thanks her after she passes it to him. Reggie watched him eat in envy and decided they were making a stop before going back to school.
She rips open the amazon box. "Oh Vegas, your lion mane came in." She pulled the wig out of the box. She put it on the dog. "What do you guys think?" She looks at her dad who was sitting on the couch next to her pouting brother.
"He looks like he got a lot of courage." Fred made a joke about the character he was going to be.
"I can't believe you're going to hold this event, even though there is a killer on the loose. All those kids will be endangered." Archie glares.
"I'm not going to cancel this event. Besides he hasn't done anything on the Southside." She rolled her eyes.
"You think he's from there." He perks up in his seat at a clue.
"I don't know, I never thought about it." She shrugs. She took a picture of Vegas and posted it on her Serpent group chat. Toni sent a heart-eyed emoji while Fangs complained that he wanted to be the loin, instead of the Scarecrow. To which Sweet Pea made a joke about him having no brains.
"How can you not think about it?" Archie jumps off the couch in outrage that neither of them seems to care. "This guy tried to kill our dad and our friends. He's out there looking for his next target. No one seems to want to stop him from doing that or doing anything to protect themselves."
"Archie, if this is about the gun. We aren't getting one." Fred sighs.
"Gun?" Abby looks between them.
"Yeah, I want to get a gun, but dad doesn't want to. He wants us to be sitting ducks." He got up and went to his room to slam the door.
"Such a drama queen." Anna rolled her eyes.
Abby sneaks a peek at her phone when she feels it vibrate in her pocket. She saw a text from Sweet Pea for her to call him. She raised her hand to get a bathroom pass from her teacher. She called him when she was in the bathroom. "Hey, what's up?" She asked when he picked up.
"I just got a text from Tall Boy and the pumpkin that you ordered came in. A lot of them are deformed. Not perfectly round like you ordered." He sneers.
"That fine, babe. They don't have to be perfect." She could hear the stress in his voice.
"Then why when you ordered them did you say perfectly round a couple of times. Don't sugar coat shit with me." He hated when her mouth would say it's fine, but her eyes would say it's not.
"Because, it would be easier to carve for the kids if they were round, but we'll find a way to work around it. As long as they aren't rotten, I can work with it." She knew leveling with him would be the only thing to calm him down. When he felt like she was trying to manipulate him with white lies it would only get him more frustrated.
"I want Halloween to go perfect. You put a lot of effort into it." He leaned against a desk in one of the abandoned offices.
"We all have." The budget wasn't big, so they had to make a lot of the things themselves. They've done all the arts and crafts to make the games and decorations. Looking up recipes and practicing to make the food stands.
"Yeah, but you're the one organizing everything. You're stepping up in a major way for not just me but my community." He gave her all the credit.
"Sweet Pea, you have to stop making everything I do for you or the Serpents into some grand gesture. I've had fun organizing it. It's a little stressful but I know it will be worth it when I see the kids smiling faces." She put down a lid to sit on the toilet.
He cleared his throat. "We've been going out for a while."
"Three months." She nods.
"People have been talking about us, about you. Most of it is good, but a handful of more critical people have their doubts about you being from the North. I was hoping that Halloween would be the night to shut them up. I don't want deformed pumpkins to be the reason they keep talking shit." He growls. They have been respectful so far in telling him their doubts. He told himself he couldn't be too upset about it because if it was anyone else going out with a Northsider he would be suspicious too. He wouldn't be respectful about it like they were being. He couldn't help but be annoyed that anyone thought he was stupid enough to get duped by a pretty face.
"Who are these doubters? Pity girls that wish they were your girlfriend." Abby pictured the half-naked ladies at the Whyte Wyrm whispering doubts into his ears.
"What? Is that what you got out of that?" He shook his head at his jealous girlfriend.
"I'm just saying the only people who don't like me are people that envy me." She smugly told him.
He let out a chuckle before sighing. "I'm being serious."
"So am I, if they're girls, gays, or bi nothing I do will be good enough. Except maybe share you, but that's not going to happen." She shook her head.
"And here I thought you were a people pleaser." He laughs.
"Not that much." She scoffs. "Aren't you supposed to be in English Class right now? It's your introduction to Fahrenheit today." She looked at her phone for the time.
"Why, my English teacher is shitty? But luckily, I got a great English tutor. Only one problem with her, though." She could hear the smirk in his voice.
"Yeah, what?" She asked.
"She needs to work on her incentives. Like kisses or maybe she could take a piece of clothing off for every right answer I get." He teased.
"Maybe, she should try that out with you, and if it works she could use it on her other tutees." She teased him back.
"Alright, you ruined the phone sex. I'll see you when I pick you up for the quarry." He hangs up the phone after her promising to wait out front for him.
Abby walks over to her brother's locker. "Archie, is this for real?" She holds up the flyer that Tomoko showed her. It had her brother's number on it for people to call if they felt endangered.
"Yeah, look at it as a neighborhood watch. We won't be fighting bad guys, we'll just be providing safety in numbers." He explains like he had to for the tenth time this morning.
"Safety in numbers. Who is in the red circle?" She asks.
"The bulldogs and Dilton." He told her.
"Dilton? Do you know how mad I would be if I was scared and called for help and got Dilton?" She scoffs.
Archie chuckled. "We aren't going to be acting violently. If we see anything, we call the police and they handle it."
"But still Dilton?" She pulled a face.
"This rival between you too is weird." He shook his head.
"It's no rival. He is no competition for me." She glares at her brother for thinking she felt threatened by the teen in any way. She was just annoyed by his cocky attitude. "Look just be careful, you read those psycho words." She remembered the newspaper article that Tomoko showed her.
"More reason we can't leave ourselves vulnerable." He nods.
Abby was walking with Sweet Pea and a bunch of Serpents looking for Toni. He opened the door to a room that was covered in dust. "Topaz. Let's bounce." He nods to his friend. He looks at Jug and crosses his arms remembering his promise to his girlfriend. "Jones, wanna come with? We're going to the quarry."
"Uh, I don't have my beach bod yet." He barely looked up as he looked through a box.
"Come on, Jug it'll be fun." Abby knew he needed the Serpents if he was going to survive this school.
"I'm fine." He digs through a box.
"What? You'll ask for help from the Serpents when you need it, but you won't hang with us? Don't come crawling to us, hat in hand, when some Ghoulie decides to earn his stripes by taking out FP Jones's kid." He glares at the stuck up loner.
"Duly noted. Thank you, Sweet Pea. I appreciate what you and the Serpents have done for me and my dad. I do. But I'm done. Okay? No more favors coming your way." His tone and word choice were condescending. He made it seem like the Serpents were asking for favors from him when it was the other way around.
Sweet reacted physically as he moved to close the distance between them. "Hey, hey, he made up his mind, okay? Take the hint, Sweet Pea. He's just not that into you. Let's motor." Toni got in between them.
"Come on, babe. This is supposed to be relaxing before our busy night of prepping." Abby grabbed his hand to pull him out of the room. The other serpents followed.
"Catch you later, Jones." Toni waved to him as she left with them.
They walked out of the school and got on their bikes to get to the quarry. When they got there, they stripped down to their swimsuits and jumped in. Abby climbs onto the inflatable duck. Sweet Pea spun her around on it until she grabbed his bicep to get him to stop. "I just wanted to say thank you."
"For what?" He pushed his eyebrows together.
"For trying to keep your promise about Jughead. You were right he was a big jerk about it, even though you were being nice." She was upset at Jug for his behavior. He made like they were forcing him to join when they were just asking him to hang out.
"It's fine, babe. He wants to learn his lesson the hard way that's on him. He is going to come to us soon and he'll have to work for his seat on the table now." He shrugs and goes back to spinning her. Her yells of protest just brought Fangs over to spin her faster.
"Come on, Hotdog, you put this on and we're ready." She held the Zero costume in her hand. "Don't you want to match me?" She was wearing Sally's dress. She even painted her skin blue. She had to hold him tight between her legs to get it on. He tried to shake it off for a while, but once he found he couldn't he lied down. "All that just to accept it, huh?" She put a hand on her hip.
"Boys and girls of every age, wouldn't you like to see something strange? Come with us and you will see this, our town of Halloween." Sweet Pea sang as he came out of the room wearing his Jack costume. Abby stared at him in shock. "What?" He asked, seeing her face.
"It's just umm..." She was trying to get her thoughts right.
Fangs came out wearing his scarecrow costume with Vegas wearing his lion mane. "Holy shit, dude, you're going to scare the crap out of those kids." He stared up at his best friend with wide eyes.
"What? Kids love the Pumpkin King." His voice was laced with confusion on what the problem was. He thought it looked badass.
"It's just with the mask with your height it can be imitating," Abby explained. The mask was of Jack's eyebrows down and a sinister smile.
"So, should I go change or something?" He was bummed out.
"No, just try not to tower over them." Abby didn't want the theme of the night to be ruined. Maybe the kids wouldn't be scared. Sweet Pea did look a lot like Jack, maybe the kids would find it fun.
They walked out of the trailer. Abby went around to do one last check. There was a Charlie Brown table where kids could make their own popcorn mixes. The superhero table with hamburgers, fruit kabobs, and other foods. Then there was the Hogwarts, Nightmare before Christmas, and Wizard of Oz table that was all desserts and candy. There were gaming booths like Poke a Pumpkin and a toss game. And, of course, the carving pumpkin table. Every table had a goodie bag to give the kids, so it felt like a mini carnival and trick or treating.
After she was able to check everything off her list, she went back to the booth she was manning with Sweet Pea, The Nightmare Before Christmas Booth. She found Toni, who was dressed in a Slytherin school uniform, waiting with Jughead. He had a black eye and a few bruises. "Look who wants to help out tonight." She put a hand on his shoulder.
"I am not going to wear a costume, though." He made his condition clear.
"Then you can help the kids at the pumpkin carving station." She pointed at the table.
"What do I do?" He asks.
"Matter their age you have to help them carve, give them a pumpkin goodie bag when they're done, and clean up the table for the next set of kids." She explains.
"I can do that." He nods, walking over to the table.
"That was a fast turn around." She watched him talk to the Serpent that was assigned to the pumpkin carving table.
"An ass-kicking can do that to someone." Toni shares a smile with Sweet Pea before going to the Hogwarts table.
"You guys are too smug about his black eye." Abby shook her head.
"When a guy is that obnoxious I can't help it." He shrugs. "Hey, did I tell you how good you look?" He looks her up and down.
"No, you didn't." She pouts.
"You look good. I would fight the boogie man and a mad scientist for you." He winks under his mask, then felt stupid because she couldn't see it.
"He fights the boogie man for Santa." She laughs.
"Don't ruin our flirting with facts." He let out a pretend sigh.
"Don't flirt with me when you're wearing the mask, it's kind of creepy." She shook her head, giggling.
"I don't know, I think we should have some fun with this costume after." He whispers, making her blush as the kids run out of their trailers. The first hour was for the kids at the trailer park then they opened it for the whole Southside.
"I knew my costume looked good, so kids would want to take pictures, but I didn't think adults would." Abby sat down on the couch to take off her heels. It was easily the worst decision she made of the night, but the shoes went well with the outfit.
Hotdog and Vegas had the same idea as they came up to her to get their costume taken off and went to sleep soon after. They were sharing Hot Dogs doggie bed.
"Fucking perverts." Sweet grumbled. He had to growl at a few whose hands were too close to places only he could touch. He sat down on the couch next to her and pulled off his mask to throw it on the table.
"I have to say I was wrong. The kids loved you." The kids were in awe of him, it felt like a character walked off the screen for them.
"There were two that were scared. All the babies." Sweet took off the bowtie and undid a few buttons.
"It was a great night, everything was perfect." She ran a hand through his hair that was wet from sweat.
"Thanks to your obsessive planning." He lay down on the couch and put his head in her lap.
"You're tired?" She massaged his scalp.
"Yeah." He nods, closing his eyes.
"Too tired for cosplay sex?" She watches as his eyes snap open. He sat up to snatch the mask off the table.
"Never." He put it on and pulled her into the room. He threw himself down on the bed to pull his dick out.
"If you're not too tired, why am I doing all the work," Abby whines as he grabs her hips to straddle his face. "I don't know about this." It was one thing to sit on his dick but his face.
"Sit." He pulled the mask up enough to free his mouth.
She grabbed the headboard and put her weight on that as she lowered herself on his face. He ripped her tights and pushed her pantie to the side to get to her center making her scold him. Her harsh tone turned into moans as his tongue and fingers got to work. She never thought anyone would know her body better than her, but Sweet Pea had her orgasming down to a science. He knew the right amount of suction to apply to her clit, how to flick his tongue so he got every inch of her pussy with such lick, and where to hook his fingers to get her body shaking in record time. That's what made it so frustrating when he would draw it out. But tonight he seems to be feeling merciful. Her knuckles turned white from gripping the headboard as an orgasm ran through her.
She looked back at his cock to see it twitch as if it knew her eyes were on it. She turns around to crawl over to it. She gave it a kitten lick to get the precum off it before deep throating it. She wasn't able to the first couple of tries, but now she was able to do it like a pro. Sweet Pea was more than happy to be her practice dummy when she was determined to get good at it after her first failed attempt. He was amused when she pulled out notes she had from descriptive smut she found online to look over before she gave it a third try.
Now his head went to the clouds every time her mouth and hands wrapped around him. When he feels himself close to the edge, he grabs her hair to pull him off. He wasn't about to cum in her mouth when he was imagining pushing that dress around her waist to give it to her all night. "On all fours." He used his grip on her roots to put her in the position he wanted. He took off the fitted costume that was making him feel restricted but kept the mask and gloves on.
When she feels the gloved hands on her hips, she turns her head to look at him. She laughed at what he kept on. "What the hell?"
He moved the dress over her hips. He slapped her ass before ripping her tights more to get better access. He lines himself up and dove in. He moved in and out roughly as his grip tightened on her hips. "Fuck," He huffs as he felt her tighten around him. When he felt it happening again and again, he knew she was doing it on purpose. He spanks her, leaving her cheeks stinging and red.
"You don't like my Kegels?" She coos, tightening her muscle as tight as she could and holding it. He let out a grunt, digging his nails into her.
He grabs her hair and pulls her up, so he could hiss in her ear. "If you make me cum before you, you'll regret it." He rakes his teeth along her neck.
"Don't threaten me with a good time." She turns her head to catch her lips with his. When she stopped doing Kegels, he let her go. She didn't have time to put her hands out, so her face hit the comforter and got dragged along it from Sweet Pea thrusting hard and fast. He reached his hand around to pinch her clit. She let out a throating moan as she reached her peak. He came soon after her. "Don't challenge me again, woman." He pulls off the mask. He grabs her to lay down next to him and cuddle.
Abby stepped out of the shower, her skin was red from having to scrub the blue paint off. She put on a pair of jean shorts and a green tank top. She walks out to see Fangs, Toni, and Sweet Pea making breakfast. Hot Dog and Vegas were at their feet, hoping something would fall. "Hey, we wanted to make you a thank you breakfast." Toni smiled.
"We got you a gift." Fangs held out a bag.
"We were going to wait until after breakfast for that." Sweet Pea rolled his eyes.
"I got excited." He shrugs.
"Thank you guys, but you didn't need to. Can I help with anything?" She watched Toni mix the pancake batter.
"No, you can just sit and open your gift." Sweet Pea nods to the chairs that were around their small dining table.
She grabbed the gift and sat down. She opens it with them watching her. "Awe. This is so sweet and it helps me remember the night forever." She squeezed the Jack Skellington Pillow Pet.
"I would think the two orgasms I gave you last night would help you remember the night." He winks. Getting two yells of disgust from their friends.
"Only thing I remember from last night is the headache from you pulling my hair." She rubs her sore scalp.
"Listen better and I wouldn't need to guide you so much." He flips the bacon.
"I don't want to hear this." Toni covered her ears. Abby laughed as she got up to grab some pills for her headache.
"At least you didn't have to actually hear it." Fangs complained. "Normally, I jerk off to it but last night I was tired so it was just annoying." That got a scream of horror from everyone.
