It was almost Halloween, every year the gang would carve pumpkins together. Yall don’t remember who actually started it but yall had done it every year since.

You had all got your pumpkins and were sitting on the floor of the Curtis house. Everyone was carving something different. Steve was doing a car, Twobit was doing Micky Mouse, Pony a sunset, Darry a football, Johnny a switchblade. Dallas didn’t have a clue what to do and was grumbling about it and finally Soda was doing a scary face. You were still thinking about what you were gonna do.

Like every year, Darry wasn’t happy about all the pumpkin guys that always ended up all over the floor and he was usually the one who always had to clean it up, so he put blankets over the floor. There was a horror movie going on in the back while everyone carved and a few bowls of popcorn.
