when halloween rolled around, i got up and went to go and see if Harper was okay or not.

"hey Harper... hows the morning sickness going?" i asked her as i entered the living space,

she looked up at me and moaned before proceeding to lay down. she was acting as if she had a hangover and every so often she would run off to be sick.

i made myself some scrambled eggs and poured myself a glass of apple juice, as Harper had all of a sudden hated orange juice, and made my way to the couch. i switched over from the real housewives and put something better on.

Friends.

i sat there in my bed shorts and a short sleeve pyjama top watching old Friends episodes.

when i finished my breakfast, i carried my plate through to the kitchen and shoved everything in the dishwasher.

suddenly, there was a ring on the doorbell.

i went over to the door and answered it to reveal Jack standing there with a bouquet of flowers,

"are those for me?" i asked jokingly as i invited him in,

"sorry, not this time... where's Harper?" he said with a slight laugh,

"uh... in the bathroom," i said and just on cue, she threw up again.

"oh... i see," he said with a strange look on his face.

"you're the father... you're to blame," i said jokingly as i knew they loved that child.

when Harper finally erupted from the bathroom, she gave Jack a deflated smile before asking me to put the flowers in a vase.

Harper was standing up showing Jack her 2 month bump when i looked at the time to see that it was almost 1pm and that Grayson wanted me to go to his apartment to film a halloween video meaning that i was most definitely going to be made to dress up.

"well guys, i have to go soon so i'll see you before the party," i said as i assessed my clothes and then grabbed my keys,

"bye Ava," they both said in unison as they cooed over the bump.

i drove over to Grayson's and he opened the door for once.

"you look nice," he said with a smile on his face.

"thank you," i said before i kissed him,

"you'll look even better when the video is over," he said with a devilish grin on his face.

"you know, you look pretty devilish when you do that," i said to him with a laugh,

"well... you know what they say about me..." he said as he ran his fingers through his hair and shrugged,

i shook my head as i laughed and moved through to see the set up,

"whoa. got enough equipment?" i ask Ethan as he was setting up one of the lights,

"nah, i don't think so," he said sarcastically,

"you're lucky i didn't put any highlighter on," i said to them as i took my seat in the middle.

i glanced around me to see a massive sheet of plastic on the floor,

oh no.

"this video is going to get messy isn't it?" i asked them as they took their seats.

"yep," they said at the same time but Grayson popped the 'p'.

during the into to the video, Grayson handed me a cheesy halloween costume of a pumpkin that i put on and sat there dressed as a pumpkin for the rest of the video.

we filmed a halloween tag and i was their victim of getting messy. although, i did give Grayson a hug which he reluctantly accepted because it meant that he became covered in whipped cream, eggs and silly sting.

"wel... that was definitely not what i thought it was going to be," i said as i stepped out of the showering with a towel wrapped around me,

"i know, i even found a bit of silly string in my bellybutton," Grayson said as he sat on his bed and ruffled his hair.

"i found some in my ear," i said laughing as i grabbed my clothes and went through to the bathroom to change.

"what time does the party start again?" i shouted to him from the bathroom,

"oh... uh, 8" he shouted back.

i walked back into his bedroom with my hair looking stringy from it's dampness.

"i best be off then, I've got a party to dress for," i said as i kissed Grayson,

he pouted when i pulled away and looked at me before smiling and saying goodbye,

"ill see you later anyway," i said as i grabbed my bag and headed towards the door. Grayson saw me off and then shut the door when i left.

i got in my car and drove off back home to see that Jack's car was still in the car park. i knew it was his because it was a rental mustang that he always requested when he visited. even though this was only the second time he had got a rental car when in LA.

i made my way up to the floor and the door opened as i ruffled around for my keys in my bag.

"i thought i heard you," Jack said as he left the door ad walked over to Harper who was sat on the couch curled up in a blanket.

"i made some chilli, if you want any," Harper said as she took a bite out of a piece of liquorice.

"thanks," i said as i walked over to the pot and peered in, all i could smell was the delicious sent of tomatoes and chillies.

i grabbed a bowl and spooned out some rice followed by the chilli.

yum.

once i had eaten my serving, i decided to get ready. i changed into some sweats and started with my makeup. i did a silver eyeshadow which i accompanied with a cat eye and then a dark red lip to contrast with my outfit. next, i pulled my hair back into a ponytail and covered the hair tie with some hair. i went over to my wardrobe and got out my outfit before pulling it over my head and straightening it out. i gave myself a once over in the mirror.

i had dressed up as an angel after a little birdie (Ethan) had told me that Grayson was going as a devil and that he was didn't stop going on about how he wished i went as an angel and here i am, dressed in a gorgeous feathered dress with a lace top half what has full length lace sleeves. i paired the outfit with a pair of white sandals and strapped the small angel wings around my back.

okay, i was ready to go to the party to meet my devil.
