Mimi bustled around the rooftops, cursing the fact that New York got so cold quickly, and the riduculously small size of the apartments. They were obviously not designed with the idea of having a party in mind. Otherwise they'd be a kajillion times bigger. A shiver running down her spine as the breeze picked up, she tugged uselessly at her dress, hoping to God that she didn't catch a cold or anything while she was out here. The last thing any of them needed was to get sick. Not when their lives hung so precariously in the balance. With a last placement of decorations and turning on of a stereo, she stood back to admire her work with a grin. "And the madness begins," she commented to herself, rearranging her hat on her head.

Anna's Whole CostumeAnnaliese put the finishing touches on her Halloween costume as she had already worn this before last year and still had all the Queen Anne fake jewelery. Usually Anne wore her hair up but Annaliese thought that the old English queen needed a little sprucing up so she curled her long curly hair in a regal fashion and she placed the face crown on top of her head and graced her hands over the necklace she wore. She arose from the chair in her room and straightened her skirt. She grapped her bowl of wrapped Hersley{sp?} chocolates and opened the door to her apartment,closing it as she locked it. She has a set of extra keys under her doormat,it was taped underthere so that no one could find it and/or tear it apart. With her bowl under her arm and a hand grasping onto her skirt as she walked to the rooftop and opened the door,seeing a woman as a witch...she then asked,"Mimi Marquez,right? Am I late for the party?"

Carson's whole costume
Carson Davis was VERY excited for the halloween party being throne at her new apartment building that night. Halloween was always one of her favorite holidays (tied with Christmas) and she ALWAYS dressed up, no matter how old she got. This year she decided to go as Miss Freddy Krueger. She was sitting on her bed at that moment tying up and buckling her boots. She stood up when she finished and straightened out her red and brown striped sweater dress, making sure her jagged hem and slashed torso were straight. She picked up her brown fedora and placed it on her head over her straightened dirty blonde hair. She pulled on her slasher metal-clawed glove (with fake blades) and walked over to her mirror. This was sure different than her usual look. Maybe she'd scare her older brother, Roger. Who knew what the night would hold? She pulled off her glove for a moment as she opened the bag of Blow Pops, the lollypops with the bubble gum (her favorite that she hoped others would like), and dumped them into a plastic halloween bowl she had "borrowed" from home before she left, since it was her favorite bowl. She slid her glove back on, grapped her bowl and headed out the door. After she locked the door and taped her key under the mat (after seeing there was no little ledge near her door to hide it on). She went up to the roof, where the party was being held. She saw a girl dressed as a witch and another girl dressed as a nobel woman from old England who she didn't reconize at first. "Am I late? For the party, I mean..." Carson asked, then looking down as she turned red, embarrassed. She looked back up and reconized the girl dressed as a noble woman as Anna, who she had met not too long ago. "Oh, hey Anna!" she said.

Roger was not that into Halloween. He knew that he could get brutally attacked by the people who still enjoyed visiting childhood through the holiday for even thinking that way, but it was the truth. He really thought it was all a little cheesy, and yet here he was, with a cape and fake fangs, on the rooftops. To be honest, he felt absolutely ridiculous. Mimi, it's a damn good thing that you're dressed the way you are now, or I would've just stayed home, he thought, glancing sideways at his girlfriend. And he called Mark a sucker. He actually didn't know what his best friend was dressing up as...he was too embarrassed over the fact that he had to dress up at all to really think of asking.
Pulling out the teeth that were both cheap and annoying, Roger strolled toward where he saw Mimi, his little sister, and the girl had had scared half to death on the roof not that long ago. "So I guess the party's already getting started?" he asked. "Do you have any idea of how annoying these things are? How kids can deal with wearing them all day is beyond me." Still, he was smiling once he got to Mimi, wrapping his arms around her from behind and kissing her on the cheek. "Hey babe..." Then he glanced toward his sister and Anna. "Nice costume sis. I've got to say, it's clever. Hello Anna, nice to see you again without me giving you a heart attack."

Anna placed her bowl of chocolates on the table as she saw Carson and replied,"Hey Carson! Wow,nice costume. I would have never expected of you but then again,no one would suspect me of being Anne Boyelyn."Annaliese then twirled around and asked Carson,"What do you think? It's a repeat costume but eh,oh,well..."Anna then giggled lightly until she saw Roger and replied,"Hey Roger,that's not funny...you don't have to repeat what happened. I get scared easily,especially on Halloween and dressing up as Dracula? Really?"Anna then laughed and replied,"I'm only joking, I tend to make jokes that either sound good or they sound horrible."

"Nah, don't worry guys. You're the first two to show up. And even if you two were alst, not like I'd pitch a fit. So long as you show up at some point, I'm happy. Nice costumes, by the way. Roger's gonna flip at yours, Carson." Rearranging the candy dishes on the table, she glanced up as she heard Roger, smiling brightly and unable to keep from giggling a little as she took in the costume. "You look hot, babe," she greeted, standing upright as he stood behind her. "Be good and you can suck more than my blood later..."

"Thanks Mimi." Carson said with a smile to her brother's girlfriend, "I like yours too." "Roger's gonna flip at yours, Carson."She laughed. "Doubt it, Mimi," she said with a laugh. "Nice costume sis. I've got to say, it's clever." Carson wrinkled her nose at her brother's comment. She moved her slasher gloved back into to a position that looked like she was going to stab Roger but she then burst into a fit of giggles, a huge smile reappearing on her face. "I can't be scare, can I?" she asked, through her giggles. "I like yours too, Count Rogula." she said trying to be funny and probably failing miserably. "Hey Carson! Wow,nice costume. I would have never expected of you but then again,no one would suspect me of being Anne Boleyn." "Hey, thanks Anna. I love yours. Anne Boleyn suits you." she said with a smile to her friend. "What do you think? It's a repeat costume but eh,oh,well..." "It's so pretty." she said, "I would have never guess it was was a repeat."

Apparently, he wasn't the only Davis who knew Anna. "Carson, you didn't tell me you knew Anna," he noted, a slightly teasing tone in his voice. "Oh is that the case? Well, don't worry. I have no intention of using any accents..." Upon hearing his sister's nickname, he rolled his eyes good naturedly. "Or accepting that name at all. I won't answer if you call me that sis, I mean it." But he really wasn't taking anything seriously at the moment. Really, if he was going to look this ridiculous, he might as well be able to allow himself a few laughs, even if it was at his own expense.
Still, if Mimi thought he looked hot, that was pretty comforting. He couldn't help but smirk at her comment. Well, when she put it that way, looking ridiculous was well worth it. "Well, I'll be sure to be next to angelic then."
It was really pure chance that had led Adrian to this party. He had heard his neighbors, a young lesbian couple from what he could tell, talking about it, and he had heard that it was essentially an open house. Or, he supposed, in this case, an open roof. Truthfully, Adrian didn't have that many friends or really anything to do on Halloween. That was just insanity, and he wanted to fix it somehow. He supposed that this would be the best way to make friends. All the same, he found himself feeling rather awkward, almost as if his footsteps were a thousand times louder than they were as he walked onto the rooftop.
He had to admit, though....the place had an amazing view. Perhaps he could just look at the world that was happening all around them, while they were nearly at the clouds up here, would be enough to calm him down. He just didn't want to bring that much attention onto himself. He had had enough of that in those few years in France. Although it seemed that the people who were already at the party were quite engaged in conversation. One girl in particular, one dressed as a lady of the court apparently, caught his eye. He couldn't help but smile, which he knew was partially because of how well their costumes seemed to go together...but it was something else too. He mentally noted that once he felt ready that she would be the first he would speak with.

Anna laughed to Roger's reply and she replied,"Yes,Roger,actually your sister was the first person I met here in New York. I'm a girl from Sante Fe,so that's a great thing to me!"Annaliese was now walking backwards,not knowing where she was going and the next thing she knew,she bumped into someone. She gave a surprise gasp and she replied,"Oh,I'm so sorry. I...."She then turned and her heart literally stopped as she came face to face with the most goregous blue eyes she had ever seen in her life. She bit her lip and replied,"I'm so sorry,I...I wasn't watching where I was going....how clumsy of me...."

Cathy walked up to the rooftop, with Faith in one arm and a package of Butterfingers in another. She loved Butterfingers, they made her smile and they made Faith smile too so everyone won. She was excited...it was a party...on a roof. She'd never been to one of those. She giggled in delight, imaging the faces of the New York citizens when they saw a party on the roof. Oh, this would be fun! Too bad Adam was missing it all. He said he had to work, and, while she knew they needed money, he worked to hard. Poor guy would burn out completely before the age of 20. She knew he just wanted to make sure they got everything they needed, but, he still should have some fun too, right?
"Down, mommy!" Faith said as soon as they were on the roof. Cathy smiled and gently set her daughter the ground, who instantly giggled and ran around the roof.
"Don't get too close to the edge!" Cathy said to Faith, suddenly realizing how high this roof really was and how easy it would be to fall splat to the ground.
"Ok, Mommy!" Faith yelled happily back and smiled when she saw a familiar face. It was the nice lady who helped her with her sandcastle. She hoped over to her and said, "Hi! You look really pretty!"

Annalisese gave another surprise gasp as she found herself pulled away from the look of the mysterious stranger's eyes but a little chat with Cathy and Faith could not hurt anything. Anna grinned and kneeled down to Faith and replied,"Well,thank you,Faith. I am Queen Anne Boyelyn so I have to look pretty,don't I?" Anna then giggled lightly as she smiled. Seeing Cathy,smiling and replying,"Nice to see you two again,Cathy. Your daughter is absoulty adorable as usual." She looked at the mysterious stranger behind her and she couldn't help but try and hide a blush. Something in him had caught Anna's eye for the night.

"Carson, you didn't tell me you knew Anna," "Well, I haven't really seen you until now, have I?" Carson told her brother. ,"Yes,Roger,actually your sister was the first person I met here in New York." "Yup," she said, "Anna was the first friend I made here in New York." "Oh is that the case? Well, don't worry. I have no intention of using any accents...Or accepting that name at all. I won't answer if you call me that sis, I mean it." "Aww," she said, disappointed, "You're no fun, Rog." She stuck out her tongue at Roger. "Well, I'll be sure to be next to angelic then." "That'd be impossible for you, Roger." she said with a laugh.
