Hostile Hookup

A Chain Reaction

Chapter 8
The Hostile Hookup

Um okay guys first things first, the reviews. In the famous words of Rodney King; Can't we all just get along? Winona that was a little out of line there was absolutly no reason to cuss ThekidVince out like that. Dude was only saying how happy he was at the knowledge of being right, you guys this is a romance story, obviously, but at the same time I don't plan to rush it anytime soon. Duncan and Heather is a very difficult relationship, one I think would take time, because theres alot of stuff the two have to build up on.

Buuut on a good note I can certainly say this chapter is somewhat of a turning point for Duncan and Heather's relationship. But if your still expecting them to just get together, don't get your hopes up. You'll see what I mean soon enough.
Oh and sorry if parts of the chapter seem a little rushed and/or choppy. I sometimes rush to get chapters done. hehe... -_-

Enjoy!

A Chain Reaction

Heather walked lightly through the halls of Riverdale. Students rushed about the hallways trying to get errands done or just talk to friends before the sounding of the first bell. The hallways were littered with orange and black streamers and (in Heather's opinion) childish Halloween decorations of jack-o-lanterns, ghosts, black cats, and other silly Halloween clichés. A yawn forced itself from Heather's mouth due to the early morning. Though she along with the other students were in high spirits due to the fact that today was Friday. And the added fact that tonight was also Halloween only seemed to add on to the student's excitement.

She walked to her locker and began putting in the combination but before she could open it she heard the loud running footsteps of Jasmine before the brunette cried out,

"Ohmygod Heather! You're not gonna believe what just happened to me!"

Heather turned to her friend with a bored expression.

"Okay," Cried the other girl coming to a halt in front of her friend, "So I was walking through the hallways on my way here and I was just about to turn this corner when this guy jumps from behind the corner wearing one of those screams guys masks! You know from the movie Scream!? It totally freaked me out! And before I could cuss the guy out he took off laughing! Can you believe it!? I swear to god some people are just so immature It's not even-!?" Jasmine looked to Heather who had at this point began snickering at her with her hand brought up to her mouth. Her face became incredulous,

"Are you laughing!?"

"O.M.G. that is soo funny!" Said Heather cruelly.

Jasmine scowled, "No it's not! How could you-!?"

Heather's laughter grew louder at Jasmine's anger. Jasmine fumed crossing her arms. "You think I'd be used to this by now." She grumbled.

"Ok!" Said Heather when she began to calm down, "That's just too much! The fact that something so trivial and childish bothers you so much! I mean come on Jasmine, it's just some goof acting up for Halloween. On a day such as this you'd expect as much from your average idiots."

"Well excuse me!" said Jasmine haughtily, "But we can't all be solid rocks of courage like you."

Heather smirked, "Why thank you." Turning to her locker she pulled to find it still locked, she frowned lightly as she began to once again put in her combination.

"Besides everyone knows tonight is the night above all other's to keep your guard up." Heather continued "So really you have no one to blame but yourself."

Jasmine rolled her eyes as Heather pulled at her locker door to find it stuck with a grimace Heather gave a forceful yank to the locker door. With a bang the locker door flew open as a large haggard looking witch doll blew up from the locker growing up two times its size with a loud evil cackling laugh that effectively scared both Heather and Jasmine to the point where they both were quick to back away both ashen faced and screaming.
