Halloween. The one day where you can be anyone you want to be, pretend to be someone you wish to be, become someone you aspire to be.

When you're a kid Halloween can be a day of so much fun, you get to dress up and walk around door to door asking for candy, then later you'd get a sugar high from all the candy you ate.

But when you become an adult... well that's something different.

Instead of walking around for candy it's partying and asking for booze, instead of sugar high it's any drug there is available to get high.

Halloween at Hogwarts well- let's just say it's different.

Ever since I saw what was written on that parchment  paper last month I've been remaining on the low. But within that time Harry and I have gotten closer.

I don't go to the great hall to eat anymore, I can't go into a place where that someone knows I'll be there, where they can watch me and observe my every move.

Since Harry has noticed my absence he takes two plates full of food every night to the Gryffindor common room and we eat together, sometimes lunch when he can but he says he has to go to Dumbledore's office every now and then.

His presence is comforting, we talk about anything and everything. He sometimes talks about the pressure of being Harry Potter and in a way I can relate to him, of course I'll never truly know but it's kinda nice seeing someone have the same kind of emotions as you.

"I get why we went to London on our girls day, but why the many drugs?" I ask, laying down all of our costumes.

"It's for the party dummy, Slytherins are hosting it so I will make sure it's a party to remember." She exclaimed.

"I think by the time they consume all those drugs they won't even remember where they are." I speak for myself.

"Where is Atticus by the way? He wanted me to do his drag queen makeup."

"I think he's still in the room of requirement setting everything up." I confirmed.

Once Atticus arrived we began getting ready, Delilah started doing Atticus makeup given it would take the longest. Delilah decided we should go as Cher and Dionne from 'Clueless'. I suggested dressing up as clowns seeing as I've been one since I came to Hogwarts.

Obviously she said no.

I couldn't believe my eyes once I saw Atticus, he looked nothing like himself. If I didn't know him I would've thought he was a girl, but that's the thing about Halloween you get to be what you want to be.

"Don't call me Atticus, today- today I'm Trixie." He pumps his lips together giving us an air kiss.

"That's a hooker's name." Delilah added with a monotone voice.

"Maybe I'll be a hooker tonight." He joked.

I finish getting ready putting on my yellow plaid jacket along with my blond wig, as Delilah puts on her black plaid jacket with her black wig and hat. Atticus is the last one to finish as he puts on his red puffy wig.
