Houston set his guitar down against the garage.



"What should I like, be for Halloween. What are you going to be for Halloween?" He asked Annalise. Halloween was tomorrow and Annalise knew that all of the kids would be out.

She leaned back her note pad folded over and she considered with a small chuckle. "My mother got me a dark fairy costume." she sounded almost embarrassed by the fact "It is very ah, feathery black feathers, black glitter.." she stated drawing a knee up to her chin. "I don't know, do you know what the rest of the boy's want to be ?" she asked as she considered. "Or it is gonna just be us ?" she inquired since she could come up with something she just wanted to know what everyone else was doing.

Houston set his guitar down against the garage.



"Dude! That's like, totally tubular! It's like, rockin' that you're totally going to totally, totally wear that." When Annalise asked about what everyone else was going to do, Houston said

"Uhhhhhhh. It's like.....Bart knows I think. Like Bart knows. But I don't. I don't really do like all the stuff about what we're going to do. I just, dunno. I just rock it, you know?"

She flashed him a warm smile and nodded her head following the train of thought. "Well.." she began "What's Bart gonna be ?" she asked as she put her writing pad into her bag, it was mostly lyrics to a song, she couldn't write the technical side of music but she could do lyrics.

"I mean we could thrift store hop ! " she offered. "Have you ever thought about...um...a plague doctor some of those masks are like ravens, and then you would make my feathers.." she offered.

Houston smiled.



"Dude! Let's totally go get Bart and like, tell him about this idea. About me going as a thrift store!" He made his way towards the outside of the garage as if to go get Bart but then he turned around and said to Annalise"Come on! Let's get Bart now. I can't wait to tell him that you're gonna dress me up as a store. A whole store, Dude. Can you make my head and eyes like the windows? Just so, like I can see. Not like those masks that you know, you get a breath and its like hot and like gnarly inside."

She was a beauty queen she knew how to dress up and she hurried toss her ever present back pack over her shoulder. "Totally." she agreed with a bob of her head. "I can try if they have that."s he nodded and hurriedly caught up to Houston. " Second hand stores always have the neatest stuff, and its usually cheap." she chirped as she fell into step with the bigger boy. "I mean that's where I got my wooden rocking horse I keep my stuffed animals on."
