You were a quiet kid who somehow got in the mix with a few students at Bridgeton Middle. It was Halloween day, and everyone was settled at each other's house with their Halloween costumes on. You refused to go trick or treating because you didn't have a costume, and you basically just wanted to sit in. It was five-thirty in the evening. You sat on the bed, slumped over the bed with chips at your side as well as your phone. You tried watching YouTube, but there wasn't anything good. For a moment, you thought about looking on Tik Tok, but that was something you've been doing mostly all day.

You decided that Instagram was your last bet, but as you opened Instagram, seventeen new messages and at least five phone calls were showing up. Are you serious? You waited for the notifications to go away before you finally opened the chat button.

— " 9+ messages " It read from Matthew Macdell. One of your friends you had been following around since the middle of the school year. A small grin painted your face just thinking about it. Then, as you looked down the second messenger, it was Jessi.

— " 6 messages " It read. What were you going to do? Well, of course, respond to Matthew first. You opened the messages and saw how many times he called and texted. It was almost unbearable to look at. In a good way, that is. Matthew's texts read,

— "Are you coming!? Hey. We're coming to your house. Open the door." With a bunch of insults in all capital letters that followed with it. After some time of reading the messages, a loud knock was heard from the door downstairs. You went downstairs to see Jessi and Mathew at the door, awaiting your answer.

"Bitch! Why the hell haven't you been answering!? Oh, don't tell me... you've been sitting on your lazy ass all day!" Matthew pushed inside the house along with Jessi, giving an awkward grin. "C'mon, move it!" Matthew stomped up to your room and placed all the stuff he brought. Looks like you were about to go trick or treating with them. "I have some makeup that I HAVE to try on you. And I got you a costume, so there's no need to worry." Matthew reassured.
