1.3 Halloween Dance

WARNING: This chapter contains sexual harassment and bullying.

I pull into the school parking lot and head inside to the gymnasium. I walk in and look around for the boys.

*Writer's POV*

"Oh skeleton, classic. Nice." Demetri complements Miguel.

"Thanks I like your sorcerer costume." Miguel complements Demetri in return.

"Sorcerer? Please I'm a necromancer. Didn't you see the amulet?" Demetri asks.

Miguel changes the subject to Eli's costume."So are you a regular doctor, or-"

"Plastic surgeon. I fix lips." Eli answers. "Nice." says Miguel.

*song playing is:   N I G H T S - Basic*

"Speaking of nice-" Demetri's attention had been drawn away from the conversation by an alluring blonde ninja that had just walked into the gym. The other boys followed His gaze to find her on her phone.

Miguel's phone pings and he reads the text.

"It's Cassie she's here." he says responding to the text. 

MIGUEL: We're by the punch table.

He then looks back to the blonde and she checks her phone again. She then looks around till she sees the boys and waves.

"Wait- is that?" Demetri begins, beginning to realizing who the blonde beauty was.

"Cassie?" Eli finishes.

Then as she begins to walk towards them, time slows down, and are now seeing her walk in slow motion. Her movements in perfect sync with the song.

"Hey!" her voice snaps them back to reality.

"Cassie?" Miguel asks still in shock. Cassie pulls down her mask.

"Yeah it's me." she says innocently. She looks at their open-mouthed faces and gets insecure.

"Does it look bad or something?" She asks looking down at her costume.

"Bad? Are you kidding me?" a voice says from behind her. She turns around to see Aisha.

"You look hot!" Aisha complements and looks back at the boys. "And I think they agree." she smirks.

*Back to Cassie's POV*

I turn around to see the boys avoiding eye contact and nervously shifting their stance. I turn back around to Aisha.

"You think?" I say cheekily. She nods and we laugh.

"By the way love the costume." I say "Who's the Chloride to your Sodium." I ask winking at her. She laughs and denies my accusation.

"I planned on doing it with Sam, but she and her friends decided to go as Laker Girls." she said clearly upset. I frown and say "Well I still think your idea was funny" pointing to the salt shakers on her head. She smiles at me and laughs. 

"Hey, you wanna go dance with me?" I ask her excitedly. She hesitates. "Pleeeasssee!" I begin to beg. She gives in saying "Fine, but are you sure you don't wanna dance with one of them." pointing behind me to the boys.

I turn around with a plan to ask them if they want to join us. I see them tense up and decide to spare them. I turn back to Aisha.

"Who them? Nah they're boring." I say to her jokingly. She laughs and I break character, laughing with her. I lock my arm in her's and turn to the boys.
