Sigh, It's another Halloween year in October here in the town of Warren Valley, Ohio. For me, I just stay at home in my house with some twisters or butterfingers watching the Nightmare Before Christmas or listening to the monster mash on Youtube. One week ago before Halloween, I got a call from Jake. An old friend from college saying that he would like to hang out with me and that he was invited to this crazy Halloween party at an old warehouse on Franklin D. Roosevelt street.
I was going to say no at first, but this was an old friend and I couldn't say no too. Jake did tell me that I had to get a costume, cause this party to request a costume to get in for free. So I went to this popular costume shop, and I got to say this costume shop was almost empty, but I went to the men's section, and there were only three costumes there in my size. A doctor's costume, a skeleton costume, and finally a black robe that looks like a Jedi robe from Star Wars. Something tells me that this would be perfect for me, plus I love Star Wars. So, I paid for the costume, and it only cost me $30, and as a bonus, I got some black Jedi under costume in my size for free. I guess they had a sale today.
One week later.........
It was about 7 p.m., and the party doesn't for another hour. So, I was getting ready for this Halloween party at this warehouse, I just got a phone call from Jake after I got out of the shower.
"Hey bro!" Jake said over the phone.
"Hey Jake, what's sup?" I answered back.
"You got your costume ready?" Jake asked.
I sighed.
"Ya, I got my costume ready," I said.
"I send u the address to the warehouse," Jake said.
I got a buzz on my phone, and I got his text. I quickly looked at the text, and it's the full address to the warehouse. It was on 50 Franklin D. Roosevelt, lucky I know that area, and it was about an hour from here.
"I got the address, I'll be there in an hour, ok?" I said.
"Cool, I'll meet you there, see you then," Jake said. Then he hanged up.
So I got my costume on, but first I did had to get my shoulder gun holster on after I got my first part of the costume on because Halloween is a dangerous time of the year with a lot of weirds out there you can't be too careful. Lucky, I was a license to carry a concealed firearm, and to own a gun.
So I got my Berratta u22 neo's handgun, first I made sure it was loaded, and also make sure that the safety was on because; I don't want to shoot myself or hurt anyone else when it drops. Then I put on the black robes, then got my keys, wallet, phone. I made sure my back door was locked, set my alarm, and locked my front door when I got out of the house. I got into my 2015 BMW, put in the directions for the warehouse, started my car, and drove off.
After about an hour's drive of listing to some classical music, I finally arrived at 50 F.D.R. The place was very old, but there were some lights on, and I did see people in costumes going to that building, and I was guided to a place to park not too far from the warehouse, about 5 mins on foot. After parking, I made sure my car door was locked/car alarm was set. I then texted Jake to tell him that I was here and that I'll be at the entrance. Jake texted back telling me that he was here waiting for me at the entrance.
When I got to the entrance Jake waved me over, and his costume was Dracula, but I did see that he had a friend with him a dark-haired skinny woman dressed as a gothic vampire-like on twilight or underworld.
"Hey bro," Jake said.
"Hey, Jake," I said.
I then looked at his female.
"Who's your friend?" I said to jake.
"Oh, I'm Eve," said the woman.
I nodded then look at Jake with a huh? look.
"Oh, sorry bro, I should have told you that I brought someone, but I wanted to be a surprise. She's my fiance, Eve," Jake said.
Eve then offered her hand to shake, and I shook her hand in friendship.
"It's nice to meet you. Jake talks about you all the time," Eve said.
I smiled at her words.
"Well, let's go inside, and enjoy the party," I said.
I wasn't mad at Jake for not telling me that he brought a guest, but maybe he did it to rub it in my face. Still, I didn't care as long as I can try to have some fun, and maybe get a number or try to find a phat thicc hottie. The three of us went inside after going threw the doorman/bouncer to check our IDs and made sure we were over 18, and boy was it packed with a lot of people in costumes, and the place was decked out in the full spirit of Halloween.
So, Jake and Eve went to the dance floor to dance, while I just went to the bar to have a drink. I found a stool to sit on, and wave the bartender over, dressed as Harry Potter. I asked him to pour me a drink of cranberry juice with club soda on the rocks. As I was just chilling enjoying my drink. An unknown figure came up and sat right next to me.
"Hi," said the unknown voice.
