    Todd and Ashley take off their costumes. They had regular cloths under their costumes. Ashley is already to fight. "I've slapped the shit out of you once. Dont make me do it again.", Ashley warns.
    Todd turns to Travis. "Me and Larry kicked your ass last time. You really ready for more black eyes and bruises?", Todd asks. Neil comes out into the hallway. "What's going on here?", He asks.
    "They are trying to hurt Larry and Sal. They were the ones who did the whole dumping blood on Sal and Ashley.", Todd says. Neil looks at Nina and Travis.

    "You two, come with me, now.", Neil says. He takes Travis and Nina back into the Gym. Todd and Ashley run into the bathroom. "Larry... Sal...", Todd and Ashley call out for them.
   "Big stall.", Larry calls out. Ashley and Todd go to the big stall. They slowly open the door. Larry is cradling Sal. Hes rocking Sal back and forth. "What happened with Travis and Nina?", Larry asks.
   "Neil is taking care of them.", Todd says. "Good. We gotta get little sicky boy here home.", Larry says. Sal gently slaps Larry's chest. "I'm not little...", Sal smiles.

   Larry gets up with Sal still in his arms. The 4 all began walking home. Ashley and Sal have their stash, crown, flowers, and scepter. Larry carries Sal all the way home. Meanwhile, Neil takes Travis and Nina to the Gym.
   He takes them to the principals. After a long talk, they are Expelled from school. Both begin to freak out. More so Travis. He knows his dad is for sure gonna kill him.
   Nina is gonna be grounded forever. They are kicked out of Homecoming. As they are outside, they start a new plan. "What are we gonna tell our parents!?", Travis yells.

   "I dont know. I didn't think this would get us expelled. Suspended maybe but not Expelled. We are gonna have to tell our-" "my dad will kill me... literally. I can't tell him.", Travis says.
   Then an idea pops into Nina's head. "Tell him you got expelled for fighting. A group of gays were bashing you for your religion. You fought for your religion and the church.", Nina says.
   "That may work. I'll see if that'll work. Maybe only a bruise this time.", Travis says. "Now we must have eyes on them from inside.", Nina says. They walk back home.

    Its Larry's night to stay with Sal. The other two went to their apartments. Ashley washes the fake blood off as well as Larry and Sal. Sal lays in just a Tshirt and boxers.
   Larry is just in boxers. He keeps Sal warm through the night. When they go back to school the following monday, eyes are all on the 4. Everyone is whispering. There's no sign of Travis and Nina.
    Then they get word from Neil that they have been Expelled. It was a relief for the 4 but now they are even more dangerous. School can't stop them.

   Sal feels a weight lifted off his shoulders. He can breath again. The stares must be because they were covered in blood and the fact Larry was about to purpose to Sal but Sal got sick.
   The day went by smoothly. A week or so passes and it's now Halloween. Sal and Larry dressed up as Jack and Sally from Nightmare Before Christmas. Sal temporarily colored his hair Red for Sally.
   Ashley dressed up as rocker zombie and Todd dressed up as a regular zombie. Sal is now at 9-10 weeks along. His symptoms have gotten worse.

   His chest is growing more. He has bad mood swings. Hes throwing up more. The baby is about the size of a prune. Sal's mood swings are so bad. He'll be clinging onto Larry like his life depends on it one moment.
  By the next, hes telling everyone to leave him the hell alone. Larry tries his best to be there for Sal. Sal pushes Larry away when hes in a bad mood.
    The quad go out Trick r Treating. Sal went only because candy and because Ashley begged him to go with. They collected loads of candy. Sal started eating his.

   Sal's craving is candy. It doesn't matter what kind. He just needed candy. Larry looks at Sal with so much love as he has chocolate all over his face. Sal looks up at Larry.
   "What's up, Larbear?", Sal asks, taking a bite of a candy bar. Larry cups Sal's face in his palms. He licks the chocolate from his face. Sal freezes as Larry does so. Ashley and Todd stare.
   Sal's face heats up. Larry grins at Sal. "All you had to do was say I had chocolate on my face...", Sal says, blushing. "Wheres the fun in that?", Larry says.
