Chapter 15

Halloween finally came and I walked into their place into chaos; people running around getting them ready for their gig. I hope someone records them all dressed up prancing around on stage like this. I don't even bother interrupting them just yet so I just wander into their kitchen and make myself a cuppa. I notice someone with their back to me. Dark hair, tall. Must be Seev.

"Aren't you meant to be getting ready?" I interrupt him

"Why would I be getting ready?"

"Em, are you on drugs to-day or something? You're doing that massive radio gig which no one has shut up about for weeks to-day. Go get ready!"

"I thought I was helping you to-day" 

"Kumar?"

"So how long were you going to let me go on?" I ask him.

"Until you noticed," he laughs.

We hear footsteps and I see Seev, all dressed up as a vampire.

"I see you met my twin," he announces.

"She thought I was you," Kumar tells him. Seev looks offended before looking at me.

"You're identical!" I laugh, "You make a good vampire by the way."

"Thanks, why are you not in costume yet?"

"I think getting your place ready in heels and a dress would be a bit uncomfortable; I'm going to check out everyone else dressed up."

"Please put on trousers," I hear her reason with him behind his door. 

"Tom, I think you should wear trousers," I tell him, "You might get arrested if you just wear that."

He stares at me for a moment before grabbing the jeans and throwing them on.

"Okay! 2 down 3 to go!" Jayne announces, "thanks Keera, you're a star!" she gives me a wink before walking out.

"Where's your costume?" he asks.

"I'm wearing it later, keeping it a surprise."

"That's cheating you're not meant to see my costume until I can see yours!" 

"Wow that's a lot of detail!" I tell him.

"No pain no gain!" He laughs off. "So will I be scared when I come back later?"

"Maybe; we did pick out scary decorations and I might whip up a special Halloween cocktail."

"No; no cocktails. The last one you and Tom made tasted like pipe cleaner" he scrunches his face "I'm sticking to Beer and shots tonight"

"No, I don't like beer, can we have Morgan's tonight?"  

"If you didn't have paint all over your face I'd think you were attractive," I tell him.

"Love you too Kee," he laughs before pulling me in for a hug.

"So when we get back this place will be ready?"

I nod my head before pointing over to Kumar, 

"Kee I don't care about decorations, I just wanna get drunk," Tom announces.

"Thanks babes," I reply, hearing the rest of them snicker as he throws me a wink. 

"Where's your costume?"
