Lucy lives a few minutes from Ian, in the slightly more middle-classed area of town. Her house is also two story, but larger. There are two cars in the driveway, and there is a decorative scarecrow in the yard for Halloween, and a "HAPPY HALLOWEEN" banner pinned up on the front awning.

Ivy pulls her hearse to the side of the road, and Lucy directs everyone inside. Her house smells nice, like cinnamon, thanks to some scented pinecones in a basket by the door. The decor is mostly pale creams and whites, and the floor is wood. Everyone has to take their shoes off at the front door.

James was more than a little annoyed. Both Ivy and Michael put themselves between him and Izzy in the car. He sulked slightly during the ride, it wasn't fair. The bright light of day made the deaths of last night seem like faded memories, especially in contrast to Izzy's dazzling beauty. Lucy's house was okay, and once out of the car he was able to get close to Izzy again. He couldn't risk her becoming re-possessed. He had thought of calling his mom up too, he was going to get an earful anyway though. "So who do we call first? Maybe Josh and Penny's folks?" Lucy- "Good idea Sully, I'm really curious why Reggie's parents didn't know anything, and no one was looking for him. I bet those guys'll know! "

Everyone sat in the living room, talking. Lucy- "Yeah everyone, write down the phone numbers of everyone you know of from the school, and let's start calling EVERYONE."
Michael- "Ugh. Another reason to feel bad about being unpopular."
Lucy's brother peered in from the hall, wearing his PHS logo workout shirt and shorts. Lucy's group all wore their clothes from the day before. John- "Are you okay Sis? Looks like you guys worked out some of that crazy shit going on huh?"
Buddy was several feet away, and checking out the crowd. He stared at Ivy's boobs. Lucy- *sigh* "Yeah. We're trying to figure out if everyone's okay. Can I borrow your address book?"
John- "Yeah.. yeah."
Ivy- "Buddy... Don't you have somewhere to be?"
Buddy may be a twerp, but at least has the sense to stop ogling people when he notices he's been seen. Buddy- "Oh! Huh, uh yeah... Nah, I'm just hanging out with John. Hey pal, haha..."
John comes back with a leather address book and gives it to Lucy. John- "Hey um, let me know what happens okay? I'm real sorry you guys got on that list. It's gonna be okay."
Lucy smiles weakly and nods at her little brother. Lucy- "Thanks John."

Andrew shot frowning glances at James, almost forgetting his own moments of odd behavior. Surely, this would be something different than whatever was going on in his mind. Why hadn't he gone with Beef? They're pretty similar. That's sad!He was pleased with the new atmosphere, though, and could almost see someone baking pies and cleaning in a little apron here. He tried not to get all emotional, but sniffled a little bit. "I-- It's the pinecones..." He mumbled under his breath, moving through the house. Andrew tugged on Michael's sleeve, then motioned his head towards Ivy and pleaded with his grey orbs. He couldn't think of any other way to communicate. "I... I need to fix my hair. Lucy, do you have a bathroom? Uh, and would I be able to borrow some hair stuff? Michael, do you think Ivy could help me with my hair or would you like to help me? If Ian is right and we get arrested, I don't want to look like this." He flopped his hair over the side of his face with his hand, almost showing the length Michael's stray bang was. The sticky-wet ichor coated his fingers and he played with it absently like a weird invisible game of cat's cradle.

Lucy- "Oh Andy, sure.. you guys go clean up. Use my bathroom, it's upstairs-- Eh, Ivy knows where it is."
Ivy nodded and helped the skinny boy down the hall. Buddy knew better than to get in their way, and retreated to John's room. Lucy had her own bathroom, which was just as small as the one at Ian's but much more used. Tons of girly makeups, perfumes, doodads, pictures, tchotchkes, souvenirs, lipstick kisses on mirrors... Ivy stood outside the door and raised an eyebrow. Ivy- "I *am* the resident hairdresser. Whatd'ya like Tiger, buzzcut?"

Andrew waited and then all but pulled Ivy inside. He let out a heavy sigh and plopped on the toilet. He wrung his sticky hands huffing a little bit like a bull about to charge. Feeling the burn on his face, he turned on the sink to wash his hands, dipping them in the warming water. It wasn't to make more noise. "Ivy... I, uh, I don't want to, like, uhm,... "go out" without... uh... I kissed Michael.... a lot. And, he, uhm, is really nice, right? Am I just going all crazy? What do you think of Gabriel. I'm gay. Is Ian really straight? What's really going to happen?" He knew he was sweating like a stuffed pig, unaware the heat was turning his hands pink. Andrew continued to try and get the sticky off his hands, babbling and ignoring the weird looking thing in the mirror that used to be him.

Ivy picked him up under the arms, and hugged him, as he still was half-sitting on the fluffy covered toilet seat. She was tiny and soft, and nice to hug. Ivy- "Oh sweetie. Take it easy."
She let him go, and leaned daintily on the the counter, turning the faucet off. She picked up a spray bottle from the counter and started misting Andrew's hair, patting it with her hands, and setting about grooming the young man. "Let's see... I'm bisexual. Go us! Yay! Anyway, I know Michael is gay, of course. Not that I didn't try... *sigh* Anyway, Gabriel is cute, but soooo sad. Can you handle that? I don't know if I could. Yeah Ian's straight, pretty sure. Plus him and Lucy are such a pair, they're too cute. I totally bet you kissed Michael, what did you think? You into him? Or was it just for fun?" *mist mist* *comb comb*

Andrew tabbed his face a bit and would have shrugged more but she was hands deep in his scalp. "Well, Uhm. Gabriel is like the protector knight and stuff that I always wondered if I'd ever find. And Michael... he's just the bad boy older man thing, right? He said he wasn't into me, sort of, and... well, I knew something was coming up in our making out, but I didn't really think I was ever going to get it. Like, Gabriel, is so sad its even cuter, you know? And Michael, he's so nice." Andrew sneezed a little. "Ian, I, uh, I had a huge crush on Ian. And, I'm such a bad person, but I was going to try and get Lucy to go steady with me so I could make Ian jealous, but he wasn't jealous of her... he was jealous of me. And, I feel, like, like I caused a huge rift between them. Did they even talk? She's so upset and I was starting crap like some evil queen." He rubbed his nose. "Do you think Lucy will tell everyone? I mean, I like Michael but... I'm not sure if I really like like him or if I'm just heart sick over... over Luka. Why can't I get what I want? It's always a struggle and always a fight over everything, Ivy. I wish I could just be like you. You have the best of both worlds and the cutest smile. I just want so little right now, even living isn't a big deal now that I've been kissed."

Ivy- "Oh my gosh you're the cutest thing. *This* is what having a gay friend is supposed to be like, not just "Gimmie yur Rolos huh huh burp". Well, Michael doesn't really burp that much, but you get the idea."
She combed Andrew's hair flat, and backward, like an old time movie actor. "How do you want me to do it? I don't know if we have time to make it as fancy as you normally do."
"Anyway, don't worry about Lucy and Ian they were tooootally sitting in the car together talking, and I do believe there were arms around shoulders. That's the word on the street anyway. Just do what feels natural. Michael's an easy going guy, but he doesn't say what he feels very much. I'm sure he'd understand if you go for little blondie, but just don't like, make out in front of him. That doesn't feel good to anyone, you know? Anyway, pretty sexy dilemma you got! Boy, wish I had that problem. Ooh which sexy boy am I going to go for today? You're such a minx!"

Andrew tried to smile. "Ivy, I don't want to be torn. And I don't really REALLY think Michael was doing anything but trying to be, like, nice. I dunno. I mean, really, do what you want to the hair. I kinda like the movie star thing. I won't worry about it being so stuck up... and getting in the way." Andrew sighed, leaning back and looking at Ivy. "Michael doesn't say anything about anything, does he. Why doesn't he give ME a sign? I'm the fresh meat. I'm the greenhorn. I... I'm just so confused and I don't want to get this all sorts of crumpled, y'know?" Andrew felt his fingers fidgeting again, this time with his slightly damp sleeves. "You're his best friend. What do you think?" He paused, turning around quickly. "Who do *you* have a crush on? Am I the only one with this whole death-love thing?"

Ivy- "Whaaat? Who do *I* like? I don't know if I should tell you. I guess you did just tell me a lot though... I'll consider it. Talk me into it."
She used some gel to keep his hair slicked back, and used the point of the comb to give him a sharp part. "Well Michael... I could do that whole double-agent thing and ask him what he thinks about you and then come back and tell you? I don't know if he'll tell me anything though. He's weird like that. Anyway, why dontcha just ask him yourself? He might just be assuming that you aren't into him because you were so tight with little guy. "

Andrew slumped a little. "But, Ivy... he basically told- well no. I... I guess I can, but. But I don't really think he will... and... I'm really nervous. What if he doesn't like me, Ivy? I mean, I want to know but I, like, don't want to know... You know? I don't know what... Gah! I feel like my life is split in between this halloween crap and this high school stuff. And... and I'm too scared to put my foot down and find out what he feels." Andrew pouted and stuck out his lower lip at Ivy. "Pleeeeease? For me? If he, like, doesn't give in, just lick his ear lobe. It made him giggle." Andrew blushed something fierce, his eyes flashing devilishly bright. "Now, who can *I* help *you* with, Ivy? Surely, someone like, hmm... Beef is all right, if a little out there. He always has been a nice dresser and stuff. But, I don't know... I mean, Heather's cute and I don't think she has had a boyfriend. And, then there's always Izzy, but I think James is just going to creep out everyone before this is done. What about Todd? He seems cool and he likes all sorts of different music. And he has the craziest hair that you can do all sorts of fun stuff to. And he looks kind of like the guy from Quiet Riot, right?"

Ivy- "Okay okay, I'll tell you more, tell you more, if you do my hair next. It's a total mess. I'll only fess up to my hairdresser, got it?
But first, your dilemma. Okay fine. I'll ask Michael for you and report back.But just remember this kid... you got an advantage. You know what it is...? All the boys think you're a spy, 'cause YOU GOT BETTE DAVIS EYYESSS!"
She laughed loudly with her head thrown back. "Okay sorry. That's been stuck in my head all day. It's so fun to do an impression of that chick's voice, try it! But seriously, you licked his ear? That's kinky."

Andrew swapped spots with Ivy, running his fingers through her hair and using a half-way decent french accent. "O-ho-ho! Der, ma'dam, I weehl feex dees!" Taking a small round brush he began to brush out the mess of knots and tangles gently. He sprayed a little bit of water and used some conditioner to assist him. He spied a small pink clip and stuck it in his mouth. "S'okay- I ga'dis. Yeah, he... he was my first kiss ever with anyone, you know, like ever. I think there is something about ears, though... I might have a weakness there so I just, uhm, tried it on him. He did kiss me first. It was like, almost boring. Don't tell him that! He would be so sad. He said he kissed a lot of older boys, like college kids at this club and said he'd take me with you guys and that'd be all right, but... I don't like the city. And, uh, then he kissed me again and took my head in his hands and I was like... you know that weird white putty? Yeah, I was like that and then, I dunno. It just came over me. It was fun! It was fun but empty at the same time. I don't know if I will ever really feel anything unless he does tell me, right? But, I don't want to know if he doesn't but... OH! I know!" He began to pull her hair over one side of her face, giving her bob an almost 20's look. The pink clip held half of her hair back over the side of her ear, almost creating a straight-betty-boop appearance. Andrew kissed his fingertips and tossed his hand into the air. "Viola! Ma'dam, u-hu-hu, Eet is Feeneeshe'!"
