Chapter Seven

Johnny drove them to the high school, but instead of dropping them off like she thought he would, he pulled into a parking spot and got out with them.

"We had a talk about advertising." Miguel whispered to her.

She turned back to Johnny, and sure enough, he had a stack of yellow flyers in his hand.

"Oh." She mumbled, brushing her hair out of her face and accidently scratching herself, "Ow! God damn it, I keep forgetting I have these damn nails on!"

"Careful, tiger." Miguel laughed and took her hand to look at her freshly filed press on nails, "Those could be dangerous."

"Hey, when I dress up, I go all out." She smirked to him, "Though I gotta say, your minimal skeleton is pretty bad ass."

"Thanks." He smiled.

"Hey!" Johnny interrupted them, "Let's go!"

The teens exchanged a look before they followed Johnny into the building.

Johnny soon disappeared down a hallway, and Miguel and Ivy made their way to the gym. The dance was already in full swing when they got there. The gym was packed with sweaty teens and trance music blared. Ivy and Miguel entered through a cloud of smoke to look for their friends. They spotted them way in the back, and they made their way over.

"Ah, skeleton, classic." Dimitri greeted them, "And you're a...?"

"Vampire bat." Ivy smiled proudly with a little sway to show off the wings, "Had to take advantage of this nice weather. It'd be snowing already back home."

"Nice, very...cute." Dimitri nodded and Eli leaned forward.

"You make a very pretty bat." He whispered shyly.

"Thanks, Eli." She gave him a smile.

"I like your sorcerer's costume." Miguel said to Dimitri.

"Sorcerer?" Dimitri scoffed, "Please, I'm a Necromancer. Didn't you see the amulet?"

"Yeah, Miguel, what the hell?" Ivy teased and Miguel laughed before he turned to Eli.

"So, are you a regular doctor, or?"

"Plastic Surgeon." Eli answered quickly, "I-I fix lips."

"Nice." Miguel nodded supportively.

Ivy wanted to say something, the pain in Eli's eyes making her super protective of him all of the sudden, but for fear of sounding motherly and embarrassing him, she kept her mouth shut.

The boys all stood there awkwardly as Miguel looked across the room. Ivy followed his gaze to see he was watching that Sam girl, who was dressed up as a sexy Laker's girl with all of her friends.

"Maybe tonight's your night." She mumbled to him.

"Not as long as Kyler's there." Miguel huffed.

"Did you really learn karate just to stand back and let him dominate you?" she asked.

"No." he looked to her, "I just gotta wait for an opening.

She rolled her eyes, knowing he wasn't going to do anything, and went back to stand by Dimitri and Eli.

Suddenly, she saw Kyler grab Sam's hand and they disappeared from the gym. Dimitri turned to them, oblivious.
