It was October 31 and you were supposed to be going to a Halloween party with your friends, but to be honest you weren't feeling up to it.

You were already in your costume. It was Marceline from adventure time. You were kinda thinking about taking it off and calling Damian and Vladimir, and telling them you didn't feel like going, since they were supposed to pick you up. Then your doorbell rang.

You walked over and opened it to find Vlad in a vampire costume, Damian in his Eren Jaeger one. You gave a little giggle. "I thought you weren't going to let him wear that." You said to Vlad.

Vlad laughed in response. "Yeah, but Japan and him watched the show now. So I can't stop him this year."

You gave a reassuring smile. "Ya know what guys, I'm not really feeling like going to the party tonight."

"What!?" Damian exclaimed "why not?"

"But you gotta come!" Vladimir whined.

"I don't know you guys. We were just out trick or treating the other night with Aurel. Not that I didn't like going or anything."

"But that was kinda mainly for Vlad's little bro. Tonight's just us teenagers."

You chuckled. "Yeah I just don't know how I'll feel being around lots of people tonight."

Damian shifted his weight back and forth between his feet, and Vladimir pursed his lips. They both know you've been having one of one of your battles with depression lately, and they didn't want to force you to do anything you didn't want to do, but they definitely didn't want to leave you alone right now.

"You know what? Come with us to the party and if you're still feeling this way, or you feel worse we can leave." The Bulgarian stated.

"It might be good for you to be around friends, but if you honestly still feel like this after being there for awhile, it's really no trouble for us to leave." The Romanian agreed.

You thought about it for a second. If you really wanted, you could talk them into letting you stay home, the only problem with that was the fact that they would skip the party with you. You didn't want to ruin their night even though they would say you wouldn't be.

"Alright." You said stepping out the door. "Let's see if I can do this." You said forcing a smile.

The two boys grinned, interlocking with your elbows on either side of you before walking down towards the party which was only a short three and a half blocks away.

Upon arriving there you already took notice to the amazing Halloween decorations over the lawn and house. And even though you were still on the sidewalk you could hear, My chemical romance's 'Vampires will never hurt you' blasting from inside the house. 

"Looks like they're already playing our kind of tunes!" Vlad cheered. You gave a small smile. Vlad was right at least they were playing decent music.

The three of you walked up on the porch and into the house. This of course was one of Alfred's parties. He was the one who always threw the parties for your and the surrounding high schools.

The first thing you saw entering the common room was, the dance floor and DJ. And to your right was the kitchen, there was where they held the snacks and beverages.

"Merhaba oradaki! We were wondering when you guys would get here!"

"Hey Sadik!" You greeted your tall dark Turkish friend, clad in a genie costume complete with a matching  sequined mask and hat.

"Sorry, it took Vlad forever to get the fake blood right." Bulgaria said rolling his eyes.

"Hey you know I have to look my best for this party! There will be pictures everywhere tomorrow on Instagram and Facebook!" Vladimir explained.

Then Elizabeta bounded over towards your group with Heracles following closely behind.

"Cute witch costume!" Vlad complemented.

"Thanks! Made it myself!" She responded running her hands over the skirt.

You looked over at Heracles. "A cat again this year?" You questioned a bit surprised. Heracles only smiled and nodded. You giggled a little in response.

"Where's the rest of the gang?" You asked looking over the massive crowd.

"Gupta and Stelios are probably eating or something." Sadik said trying to look into and possibly past the kitchen.

"Well, guys I'm going to see if I can find my boyfriends. I think I left them bobbing for apples." And with that she left back off into the sea of bodies.

"We have to regroup later for a group photo before any of us leave." Heracles said before wandering over to the punch bowl.

"Let's see if We can find Gupta and Stelios." Your Bulgarian friend said starting off in the direction of the kitchen. There you grabbed a whole bag of Fritos and started chowing down. The amount of food at these parties was disturbing.

"Hey guys I think I found Stelios!" You said prancing over next to the Cyprus who was dressed up as Beetle Juice. "Hey how are you!" You said startling him a bit.

"Oh hey, _____! Good to see you here!" He said reaching into your bag of chips and grabbing a few for himself. "Where's Gupta? Sadik said you guys were together."

Stelios pointed over to Gupta who was standing next to Elizabeta by the tub of water and apples.

Gupta looked over at you and waved, before shoving Roderich's head back under the water making him freak out. The Egyptian student then let go, allowing the Austrian's head whip out of the cold water. Roderich looked around and saw Elizabeta and Gilbert laughing so he proceeded to punch Gilbert. While Gupta only smirked.

You and Stelios laughed at the predicament. "Oh my god he got him good this time! He didn't even suspect him!" Damian said clenching his stomach with laughter. Vladimir nearly choked on his fruit punch.

The group of four from the bobbing apple tub walked over to where you were standing. "Rad costumes everyone!" You noted looking over their apparel.

Gupta was dressed as King Tut, decked all out. Gilbert as Captain Jack Sparrow. And finally Roderich as Beethoven complete with even a caveat.

"Thanks! I was going for the most awesome costume!" Gilbert proclaimed.

"_____!" Damian yelled.

"What?"

"Do you hear it!?" He responded still very loudly. You listened, and you heard the song that was playing.

"It's 'Fashion Zombies', by the Aquabats!" Vlad exclaimed. "Come on _____, let's dance!" You threw your bag of chips at Stelios, and the boys dragged you out to the dance floor/common room to her the song clearer and to have more room to dance.

'See them creep out to nightlife
You see them walk the streets.
These children of the undead look
Dressed for the endless Halloweens.'

You and your two boys started dancing around.

'and this horror like production,
takes so little dedication
of black clothes and pale complexions
Rock jet black hair to match their makeup.'

"So are you glad you came now!?" Vlad asked you a still a bit concerned.

'And who can blame them?
They walk through asphalt cemeteries
Zombie fashions-
They must have been born that way.'

You give a faint smile as you think about it.

'So can you hear me?
Can you get hip to what I'm saying?
These fashion zombies don't walk this world alone.'

"Yeah, I'm glad you guys talked me into it."

'So lock those doors and windows
They crawl the malls to shop,
For tight black jeans and spiky belts
and scissors for the Zelda cut.'

"We're glad you came too!" Damian smiled widely.

'and there is no explanation
These creatures are just victims
Dressed in expensive fashions
To look like they crawled out of coffins.'

"Afterwards did you want to do anything as a group?" Vladimir asked.

'And who can blame them?
They walk through asphalt cemeteries
Zombie fashions-
They must have been born that way.'

"Do you think everyone would be up for a sleepover at my place?" You suggested.

'So can you hear me?
Can you get hip to what I'm saying?
These fashion zombies don't walk this world alone.'

"That sounds fun!" Damian agreed, still dancing.

'Darkness falls across the land
The midnight hour is close at hand
Creatures crawl in search of blood
To accessorize their black zipper hood
and monster children with monster faces
Are looking for love in all the wrong places.'

"That'd be cool I'm sure some people might have to run back home for changes of clothes, but I'm sure they'd be up for it." Vlad said in agreement.

'And who can blame them?
They walk through asphalt cemeteries
Zombie fashions-
They must have been born that way
So can you hear me?
Can you get hip to what I'm saying?
These fashion zombies don't walk this world alone.'

You smiled a night with your friends really did boost your mood, you were so thankful for them.

'So can you hear me?
Can you get hip to what I'm saying?
These fashion zombies don't walk this world alone.'

The song ended and the three of you ran back to regroup, and found the whole gang there.

"Hey guys, we had an idea!" Damian exclaimed.

"Wait," Sadik started. "Let's get our group picture first!"

The tall Turkish student, saw the party host dressed as Captain America. "Hey Alfred! Could you get a photo of us!?"

"No problem!" He said taking Sadik's phone and quickly snapping a few pictures of your crew.

"Thanks!"

"No problem dude!" Alfred said before heading towards the kitchen to see if any of the snacks needed refilled.

"All right Damian, you said you had an idea!?" Sadik said happily.

"We thought it'd be cool for a sleepover at _____'s!"

"That'd be awesome!" The albino German yelled.

"Yeah we're in for it!" Elizabeta spoke for her and her boys.

"Sounds good to me." Heracles said sleepily.

Gupta nodded in agreement.

"Yep, count me in too!" Stelios smiled.

You grinned from ear to ear so happy you were surrounded by the people that cared about you and loved you.
