It was October 31st 1995 The day of all Hallows Eve and the one day of the year that I looked forward to. Each year was so much fun throwing traditional Halloween parties with my family. Decorating and picking out my costume was my favorite part. Me and Eliet use to trick or treat together, whenever I found something too scary I would hold his hand and I would feel safe. Today will be the first time that I won’t celebrate Halloween with Eliet. Its not going to be the same. A tear streamed down my face and I wiped it off quickly as soon as  I heard the door creak open. My mom walked  in with a plate of pancakes shaped as a pumpkin and a witch’s hat.

She was wearing her witch costume and said, "Sweetheart ,Happy Halloween!"

I try to smile and said "Thanks mom.”

She saw through my fake smile, pushed my hair back and said "what wrong honey?"

 "Nothing mom its just that Eliet won’t be celebrating Halloween with me today."

She looked down as if she knew why and said "do you want me to talk to him Starla?"

"No mom, the last thing I need is for you to bargain with him to be with me today. I want him to willingly want to other wise its just fake."

 "Oh honey i'm so sorry," she hugs me tight and kisses my forehead.

 "Sorry to interrupt this heartfelt moment but where's my black jacket !" Eliet sarcastically said.

"I don't know Eliet maybe its in the dryer?" My mom said. But I remembered that it ended up in my closet a couple of days ago.

"It's in my closet, mom must have put it there by mistake," he rushed to my closet with rage and ripped the jacket out of the rack and shouted "Don't put my clothes in her closet. I would expect you to know the difference between my clothes and hers or have you hit that point in life were your growing old"

 "Eliet-i'm sorry- for mixing up your-clothes but you don't have to talk to me like this, I'm sorry for everything but-"

Eliet walked out the room and slammed the door shut. I wonder what my mom was sorry for. "Honey hurry up and get ready for school or you will be late, and don't forget to bring your dress for todays Halloween party at school!" "ok mom, Thanks a lot I loved my pancakes!" She closed the door and left my room. Sigh, I’m so worried about what will happen today. I just know that Eliet’s planning something today.

(Eliet’s Perspective)

It was last period and the bell was about to ring in 10 minutes. I stared at the time wasting away as the red hand kept going around. "Psssst," someone whispered. I turned around and saw that it was Kim, my girlfriend calling me and winking. My English teacher was writing the homework down while Kim threw me a note. I caught it and opened it, it said:

Are you ready to see me with my dress Eliet? ;-) . I can't wait to dance with you.

Today’s going to be the best but do me a favor and stay away from that stupid
