"Want some candy, little girl?" asked the doorman. David's Halloween parties were usually worth the campy ceremonies and silliness. Laurie rolled her eyes and gave the answer from the flyer. "Yes, master. May I have another?"
"But, of course!" he smiled, and opened the door.
Looking around, no one seemed familiar. Between the guests, the neighbors, and the friends-of-friends, it was lively party full of strangers. Laurie wandered from room to room, trying to find one of her girlfriends, or at least her boyfriend, David. Amused with strands of purple bat lights and talking candy dishes, she cut through the cobwebs, paper-cut decorations, and ice chests full of alcohol scattered throughout the house. The music was not too loud, but the conversation and laughter made it hard to hear. She grabbed a beer from the kitchen and made her way outside to the patio.
Laurie's costume was borrowed from an article in Playboy several years back. Sarah Michelle Gellar went to the Playboy mansion dressed as Little Red Riding Whore, and Laurie looked terrific copying the idea. The short cape made sure that everyone could see her shiny red heels and gartered thigh high stockings, along with part of her OktoberFest miniskirt. A short-sleeved white shirt, ultra shine red lipgloss, a picnic basket purse, and braided pigtails drove home the message that this fairy tale character was not so well-behaved.
The patio and backyard were full of games, guests, and glowing torches. Laurie made her way past the undead bartender and over to the pool, complete with floating blow-up dolls and assorted glow rings. There was a line forming for "Bob for Apples or Walk the Plank" over by the diving board...another of David's more traditional party activities. Laurie waited for her turn before leaning to the side of a large plastic barrel. She waited for an apple to pass by before extending her neck forward into the water. The apple missed her initial pass, but Laurie stayed low in the barrel and tried again. Her pleated skirt lifted in the back to show her beautiful thighs as she rocked back and forth on her knees, chasing the apples as they swayed around in the water. The entire line shared a smile as Laurie's bloomer panties were exposed, and had a little chuckle at her expense. Laurie emerged from the game with a very wet shirt and dirty knees, but at least she didn't have to walk the plank!
