ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ 3: ᴛʜᴇ ᴘᴏʟʟʏᴡᴏɢ

Y/n slowly opens the front door to Dustin's house, the two creeping in with Dustin holding his Ghostbusters ghost trap in his hand.

"Dustin, don't let it touch me." Y/n said as she backed away from the 'machine'.

"Will you be quiet!" He whisper-shouts at her as she closed the door quietly.

They quickly and quietly went made their way to Dustin's room. They were almost there when Dustin's mom saw them.

"Dusty!" She quickly stood up, letting Mews jump to the floor "Oh, hello, Y/n."

"Hey, Claudia." Y/n smiled as she came over.

"So, how was it?" Claudia asked Dustin.

Dustin stammered "How-How was what?"

She scoffed "'How was what?'. The greatest night of the year, of course."

Dustin and Y/n looked relieved as Dustin said "Oh. Oh, yeah. It was- It was, uh, tubular."

Claudia looked at Y/n "And how was the party?"

Y/n nods "Yeah, uh, it was great. 'lota fun. Yeah." She spoke awkwardly.

Claudia looked between the two "What's wrong with you two?"

The two look at each other and shake their heads "Nothing."

"Did something happen?" She asked worriedly.

"No. What? No." Dustin shook his head "Right, Y/n?"

"Yeah. No. Nothing happened." She agreed, both of them giving her innocent smiles.

She looked at Dustin "Are you constipated again?"

Y/n snorted a laugh "Yeah. He is."

Dustin smacked her arm "Y/n. No, Mom! I'm not."

Claudia frowned "Okay, you are both acting weird."

"We're not acting weird." Y/n told her.

Then Dustin's ghost catcher started rustling, making Claudia jump and Y/n and Dustin laugh nervously, Mews starting to hiss at the box.

Y/n and Dustin laugh nervously as Y/n said "Awesome right? We rigged the trap with, uh.."

"A motor." Dustin continues as he nods "You know, to make it look like I caught a ghost. Just like in the movie."

"Yes." Y/n and Dustin start nervously laughing again, Claudia joining in this time.

"Oh, Dusty." Claudia laughed.

The three stood laughing at each other for a while before Dustin said "Funny. Look at that."

Y/n continues to laugh with them as she slightly pushed Dustin down the hall to his room. They get to the room and Y/n quickly closed the door, locking it behind her.

As she did that, Dustin spoke to the box "I told you to keep quiet. All you had to do was stay still for one minute! One minute!"
