wilbie had led Winnie into her room. to which she could really see his tastes showed, up on the walls were all kinds of Horror posters, on the shelves were many small horror figurines of famous monsters,. the room was also in a bit of a mess, with old soda cans littered around, socks and shirts on the floor,
" um. what a...nice room you have here, " she said,
" uh..yeah it sure is, let me show you some of it's things. like over there is were I stash all my comics, " he said pointing under his desk were a box of comics were stashed, " I been colleting them since I was four years old ." wilbie smiled.
" Impressive " winnie said bluntley
" and over there is were I keep all my Horror movie collection, like I said earlier I picked the best one, " he said nodding excitedly he then widen hid eyes. " Oh I have to show you my Pet spider ! " he said heading over to his desk. " you'll love her I tell you, " he then opened Barba's cage and pulled her out and turned over to winnie,
" take a look at her, Isn't she the most coolest spider you ever seen, " he said holding her in his palms.
winnie looked down to examine the tarantula, who just stared back up at her and then cocked her head at her...
" I've had her for a couple years now, her Name is Barbra, or barbs for short, I named her after how they sometimes can shoot their little barbed hairs from themselves for defense, ,," he explained with a chuckle. ". I picked her out at some pet store back in New York when she was practically a baby.. she's actually the first friend I really had " he said a little sheepishly " but for a spider she's a great one, "
" well she looks awesome. what- " winnie stopped herself when she thought she saw something in the window behind wilbie.. for a moment she thought she could what looked like her friends at first peeking through at them,
" uh...you okay winnie ? " wilbie said looking back. but of course saw nothing in the window or behind him at all,
" I uh..nothing just thought I saw something. " she said glancing back over towards the window, but shrugged it off when she didn't see anything, she then looked back at his spider,
" so what's her um, Diet like ? she asked trying to think of a practical thing to say.
" She loves Crickets and Moths ! " he said still holding her out.
" Mind if I pet her, " winnnie then said,
" Hey you can hold her if you wish. " wilbie said nodding, to which winnie agreed. and took the spider in her hand, " well aren't you the most neatest little spider I ever seen, " she said eyeing up the tarantula,
" Here you got to see my Music collection. " wilbie said making his way over to another part of the room,
As he did, winnie continued to hold the spider in her hand. but she had a strange feeling she was being watched, she looked over at the window again but saw no one out there.
" take a look at these, " wilbie said walking back over to her holding up a couple CD cases,." have you ever heard of The Night bringers. or Monster crashers ? " wilbie send mentioning some bands, " oh or how about the Hex girls,"
winnie's ears then seemed to perk," The Hex girls ! you don't know how much I love them ! she said excitedly. she was about to let out a Howl, but then clamped her paws over her mouth, " uh I mean..oh yes, I think there music is at the most of enjoyable quality . she said much more calmly.
wilbie cocked his head in more confusion. but continued to speak, " um yeah, I have six of there albums. " he said a little proudly
just then they both heard Helen's call out to them from the other room. " Kids ! dinner is ready ! "
"Allright, time fore some grub them, I think you'll love what she made , " wilbie said tossing the albums aside. and motion for winnie to fallow her, however once he had left. she gazed back at the window one more time, she then proceeded to head into the kitchen,
outside others were crouched below the window,
" well she certainly seems to be handling things well, " phantasma said,
" yeah, it looks she's remembering how to act polity and calmly " sibella added,
" do you think she'll be able to keep it up though, " elsa asked
" Hey I have confidance she'll be able to pull this off, " sibella said,
" Hey they are going to eat dinner, are we going to watch that too, " Tanis spoke up...
back inside wilbie and winnie were seated at the dining room table awaiting there meal,,soon Helen came into the room holding two steaming plates,
" here you kids go, enjoy " she said sweetly before making her way out,
winnie stared down at the food placed in front of her, nor sure what to identify the food as, it looked like a brown mush of many things in it,, she then stuck her nose near it and gave it a few sniffs. and from what she could tell from her strong sense of smell there was sheep Heart, beef and liver, with a variety of other things such as onions and oatmeal,
" it's supposed to be Haggis if you wondering, " wiblie said taking a bite into his meal, " * smack * well sort of anyway, seeing as it's hard to make it here with the main ingredients not being allowed in the U.S such as sheep lung,..I keep telling my mother that it will never compare to the Original recipe ..but she insists I keep trying it this way.. " he stated before taking another bite from his meal, to which winnie just looked at him a little confusingly..
wilbie Caught notice of this and realized he didn't explain what he meant. " Oh, if your wondering, it's based on a recipe my father had in his cook book, I don't know If I have mentioned before, but my dad's From Scotland,...
Winnie looked up at him and cocked her head "Scotland ?... so then your part Scottish ? she asked to which wilbie simply nodded.
" heh.. that's pretty interesting, "
wilbie took another bite from his meal., " yeah, my dad's actually an engineer you see, he works on one of those large Oil rigs in the ocean most of his time, Months even,"
" really, that's pretty neat...though I take it you don't see him often then ? " winnie asked
wilbie looked down at his plate and nodded slightly. But smiled.." yeah..we don't much...but we like to keep in contact with each other,He often calls here and I get to talk to him when he does not to mention when ever he gets some time off ..he likes to visit us,,..but the most awesome thing is we'll sometimes all take a trip over to Scotland together to visit family and such, it's a really nice place really,
Winnie tilted her head a little but nodded, " I see, I know how it can be to not have a parent around , Seeing as both of mine are back at home away from the ghoul school." she chuckled a little.." .I though do get to see them every so often as well,they visit from time to time, not to mention their is a week when we can go home for a bit, plus on top of that we do like to write too them when ever we can, ".
wilbie chuckled a little." well I guess we both know how it feel with parent's being away then ". he then notice winnie hadn't tried her food yet.." oh..you may want to dig in before it get's too cold " he pointed to her plate..
Winnie then looked down at her meal again, she decided to examine it some more..she had never seen such food before, but she had to admit it didn't look and smell so bad, she licked her chops as he bared her claws ready to dig in...but just as she as about to do that, when she heard a tapping sound behind her, she confusing turned her head back to see phantasma wagging her finger then proceed to demonstrate proper eating skills.
Winnie however didn't seem bothered by this at first and nodded quietly as she turned back around to eat more properly as she grabbed her fork and knife.. as she did Elsa popped up next to phantasma and angrily motioned for her to duck back down to which she did, just as winnie had looked back one more time realizing what she thought she saw.
wilbie who was busily eating his meal took notice her odd behavior, from the begging he knew something was up, but he wasn't sure what it was, aside from how she was dressed, she seemed to be acting rather paranoid by the look of it,
winnie however continued to eat her food, taking her fork and gently taking a chunk of her meal apart. she placed it in her mouth and began chewing it, and she had to admit..it tasted better then she thought. she wanted to saver it. every last bite..but she remained calm and spoke,
" it's simply delightful " she said nodding, then proceeded to eat the rest of her meal,
...
After the both had finished there meal. to which winnie found to be rather delicious. they both headed into the living room were winnie took a seat at the sofa, as it was soon now time to start the movie for the night, but before they did wilbi'es mom came into the room.
" Alright before you two start your movie, I have prepared some awesome and tasty desserts for you to enjoy " she said happily, " now you get comfy while I bring them out. " she said as she made her way back into the kitchen,
wilbie chuckled a little " she's um, been pretty excited about this. but anyway let me get the movie ready, " he said as he walked over to his TV stand and pulled out a a big Laser disc. " this one is one of my favorite horror movies ever, " he said rubbing his finger on the edge of the disc.
" oh. and what's it called. " Wnnie said
" An American Werewolf In England " he said staring at the disc , " it has loads of awesome things. from blood and guts, to insane effects. and of course. werewolves ." he said staring at the disc with a playful but evil smirk, he then playfully laughed, " here I'll put it in, " he said turning on the TV and laser disc player,
as he did, Helen came back into the room, holding a tray full of diffrent snacks, " alright kids. I know you'll just love these, " she said placing the tray down on the coffee table, " enjoy " she said leaving the two alone . " oh I wish I knew where the Camera was " she said as she did,
wilbie chuckled a little as she left the room, " don't worry, I made sure to hide it well, she'd never leave us alone if she had that, " he said to Winnie,
winnie just laughed a little too, she then looked down at the food placed on the coffee table " wow...your mom really gets into...creating creative food, " she said observing the many treats. form what she could tell there was frozen Banana ghosts on sticks. with chocolate syrup drawn faces, cupcakes with green frosting oozing from it and gumdrop eyeballs
and many more other treats.
wilbie then finally got the movie to play, he then excitedly ran back over to the couch where he jumped up and landed in the sat right next to Winnie.
soon the movie started up, as Winnie picked up a cupcake to examine it before taking a bite into it, and when she did instantly she winced when she was met with the sweet taste of the cupcake, expecting bitter taste instead, she promptly set the cupcake aside, " Humans have strange tastes " she thought.
the movie opened up with two guys walking down the streets of a small Britain Town, with two yellow eyes piercing at them from an alley way.
" Oh this part is one of the best. " he said as he stared on at the movie.
winnie watched on as well, as the sound of one of the guys in the movie was hear screaming and the sound of snarled and barks were heard.. the scene was showing the men being attacked by a werewolf,..
winnie however seemed to be really intrigued by it then disturbed. it was like wilbie said, a comic that was actually being acted out, and it looked like one of the coolest things she had eve seen, even more so then any magic she had seen miss grimwood Use.
outside the others peeked through the window into the living room seeing the gruesome movie for themselves. however most of them looked a little shocked by what they were seeing, sibella even have covered Tanis'a eyes.
" woah, what a flick. it's shame we weren't invited " Phantasma said with a giggle,
" ugh, how can you find this appealing, it just makes me think how much of brutes werewolves could be, " sibella questioned.
" ah but it's just a movie, and well, just look at those effects, you could fool me into thinking it's real.
sibella just shook her head as they continued to observe the date,
The movie continued to play out with one of the characters having been bitten by a werewolf and was slowly transforming into one, he'd then go around London feasting on the flesh of the inhabits.
A scene played out with man hiding in his car as the werewolf used it's large claws to slash at the windshield sending it into shattered pieces
wilbie looked like he was rather enjoying himself. he had a big wicked smile on his face during the entire thing, " totally awesome. " he said as he took a bite of one of his mothers homemade treats,
winnie herself was enjoying the movie quite much, however she did her best to keep a calm nature, but every time a kill came onto the screen winnie felt like letting out howl. mainly because she was amazed at how cool they made it look and almost found herself it doing it a feel times,
" tell wins can ya do anything like that with your claws ? " he laughed..
winnie looked down at her sharp had been polished nice and shiny by the girls.." I uh, suppose. " she said then hiding her claws behind her back..
The next scene in the movie had the werewolf running through the underground subway's chasing i'ts prey. it lunged out at a man and attacked him.
wilbie laughed a little, " oh, going on for the kill, just like a lion and a gazelle " wilbie said not taking his eyes off the movie, once that seen was done he turned over to winnie hoping she was enjoying the movie so far, and from what he could see she was really looking like she was into it," what I tell ya an Awesome movie huh ? " wiblie said smiling. " ya know I got it for my birthday from my uncle, and it soon became my favorite."
winnie nodded in agreement. " It's the best thing I seen in a while I'll tell you that" she said rather excitedly, but then stopped and calmed herself.." but um, ya know we werewolves don't really prefer to eat humans anymore, cause uh, we think they are to tough to chew these days ? " she said rubbing the back of her neck..
wilbie raised an eyebrow,,, " um alright then. " he now couldn't ignore winnie's off behavior anymore,. He had to say something now.
" okay I'm sorry winnie. I'm doing my best here to, well not makes things awkward. but I finally have to ask, what is up with you tonight. " He said,
winnie could feel sweat begin to form. had she slipped up. was she not doing things good enough ? she gulped as she tried to speak " wha-what do you mean ? I-I thought we were having good time, " she said
wilbie folded his arms and leaned back on the couch, " well, it's been fun to hang out with you...but if i'm going to be honest. This isn't how i was expecting things to go tonight, " he said
winnie tilted her head a little on confusion.
outside the girls all peeked there heads up a little. looking a little worried themselves...
" I mean come on, do you think I would not question this. you'd never wear a dress like that. you told me you hate fashion like this, " he said motioning to her dress." and that it's something only sibella would ever wear,"
sibella who was listening looked a little offended by that statement as the other quietly snickered around her,
" And your behavior. you been acting so...calm and..well..so proper ? which i know is not how you hardly ever act," he informed her " so don't lie to me...what's going on here, "
winnie didn't say anything for a moment as she bit her claws. She looked ad him and saw he was rather dead serous and awaiting an expiation,
winnie then sighed..." I wanted to impress you guys.." she took a pause.." . I wanted to impress you, "
wilbie's serous face then softened and turned into that of a curious one...
" I had the girls...help me get ready for the night...they dressed me up like this and taught me how to act proper in the presence of others, they told me...it was the only way I'd impress you," she said looking rather ashamed with her ears drooping..." but now it still seems I messed things up. i guess I just didn't try hard enough. " she said heavily...however as she sat there with her eyes closed. she felt a hand place on her back..she the looked up to see wilbie smiling softly at her, tow which his expression turned to one of him trying to hold in laughter. and then he let it out, he was laughing almost uncontrollably.
winnie however didn't understand what was so funny, " um...i don't get it...why are you laughing ? " she said
wilbie the stopped and caught his breath. " You winnie. your funny, " he said which only confused her some more. he then began to explain. " the fact that you went and did this to yourself...just to think you needed to impress me ? let me ask you, do you even like being like this ? " he asked.
winnie looked down at her self and awkwardly chuckled. " to be hones, Not in the slightest, you won't believe how much of nightmare it was just walking here she added.
wilbie snickerd some more . " oh jeeze. you really are something, but let me tell you this winnie. all the things you thought you needed to change, are the things I enjoy about you. " he said.
winnie felt herself blush a little. but this time didn't bother to hide it, " really. you do ? "
wilbie nodded to confirm " hey. I wanted to spend the evening with a werewolf didn't I " he said with a wink.
winnie felt her tail wag a little again, " oh boy...you have no idea how glad I am to hear that. " she said/
" Well you are my friend winnie. and I wouldn't want you any other way." he smiled.
winne then let out a loud and excited Howel " Ah-ooooooooooooo ! " wilbie covered his ears and grinned, " now that is what I'm talking about. " He said.
" You don't know how long I have been holding that in ! " Winnie exclaimed
Sh put on a toothy grin. " well then I guess this means I can finally express myself properly " she then cleared her throat, " I love the Hex girls,they are like the most awesome band ever, and I jam out every time I hear their music , I also loved your so fake Haggis, though you're Cupcakes, were Really sweet ? " winnie with a sheepish grin.
" Aw thank you " Helen said popping her heading into the room for a moment. " nice to know you appreciated it "
" Mom !" wilbie said annoyed to she just giggled before disappearing again.
" And as for this movie. it's the coolest thing I ever seen ! , " Winnie exclaimed
wilbie laughed " well I'm glad you were enjoying yourself after all, " he said with a content smile,
winnie then rubbed her arm and looked around, " so uh, do we like need to hug or something ? " she said not sounding sure.
" I think most people would, but I'd rather avoid any more Sappy stuff, if that's fine with you ?, " he answered with a sheepish grin.
" phew, okay then lets not then " she agreed with a laugh..
" aw that was so sweet. ! they both heard a voice say outside,..they looked over to see phantasma gazing in at them,
suddenly all the other popped up telling her to get back down,
" Girls !? " winnie said a little shocked..
wilbe just looked at her.." um..did you invite them ? " he said pointing towards them.
winnie shook her head, as she got up to go investigate , she opened the widow and looked down to see them all crouched low,
" girls what are you doing here ! " winnie said crossing her arms...
" heh heh...we just wanted to see how things would go ? " sibella said a little sheepishly
" so you spied on us ? "
" Well, we just wanted to make sure things went well, and well it looks like they did. " Elsa nodded..
" yeah we didn't mean any harm " tanis added
winnie was about to say something when Wilbie popped up. " Hey girls...um why are creeping outside my house, " he said confused..
" it's a long story " winnie said,
" Well uh..I suppose you wouldn't want to join us for the rest of the movie would you, my ma made more then enough snacks, they are really good " he offered as Winnie then stuck her tongue out and pointed a claw at it indicating her thoughts on the Treats.
However they all just exchanged some looks at another. but soon nodded...
" Are you kidding I would love to, " phantasma said phasing through the wall.
wilbie then made his way over to the front door and opened for the others to come in...
the rest of the evening wen on without any problems or issues, as everyone had a good time. even sibella who found herself getting into the rest of the movie, though she still continued to cover tanis's eyes when ever a bloody part come on, and once the movie was over, the ghouls girls were ready to make there way back home for the night,
" thanks for coming over, I had a real blast, " wilbie said to the girls as they headed out the door,
" no problem. it was really fun, sorry about all the..inconveniences " she said motion down at her dress.
" hey I think it still looks nice on you. " sibella said,
" it was no problem I'm just glad we got that situated. and I sure hope we do this again sometime soon. " he added.
" oh yes you kids stop by anytime " Helen said stepping next to her son. "
" will do Mrs Mearns " Sibella informed her,
after that all the ghouls waved goodbye as they as they began to make they way home...just as Helen then remembered something. " wait ! hold on I found the camera ! , " she called out..
" it's too late mom " wilbie said with a smirk and turning back into the house...
As ghoul girls made there way home. they discussed on how the night went..
" sorry we thought we had to change you winnie, i guess we should have known that wilbie likes you for just the way you are, " sibella apologized
" so you girls really had to spy on me huh. didn't think I could pull it off did you ? " winine said,
" oh it was nothing like that winnie...we were really just curious to see how things went " sibella admitted
" never doubted you for a second ' elsa said slapping her on the back.
" yeah. we thought it's be nice to see you hanging out with wilbie, sense you to seem to get along so well with each other. " tanis said.
winnie laughed a little " I guess we do don't we. after all we have a lot of conman tastes. "
just then as they walked on they happen to come across the langly sisters.
" Oh look. it appears the Grimwood's are taking their cute little puppy for a walk," Amber teased as they both giggled.
winine growled " I forgot to mention i had an unfortunate encounter with them on my way here, " she said,
" is that so. " sibella said looking mischievous at the two girls.. " well I guess we could use one more bite before we go home. " she said baring her fangs.
the two sister stopped laughing as there eyes widen..
" ya know what your right sibella, " Winnie said baring her claws. and licking her chops at them..
both amber and Amanda screamed as they took off running into the night...as the ghoul girls just laughed...
" Alright girls...lets go home, " sibella said,
" yeah I can't wait to get home and take this thing off, " winnie said tugging at her dress.
" just as long as you don't get it dirty on the way home, that means no mud puddles. " sibella added
" Oh you really know how to take the fun out of everything " Winnie teased. as they all made there way home, but before they did tanis then spoke up,
" would you mind having a toadstool tea party with me sometime sense your dressed like that? " she sked
Winnie just sighed...
The end.
