Peter's Pov:

I ran down the stairs quickly, quite excited, already in my halloween costume. It was finally Halloween. One of my favourite days of the year, besides Christmas, Will's Birthday and Valentine's day. This year my friends and I were all going as ghostbusters characters. Mike was going to be Venkman, Will was going to be Spengler, Dustin was going to be Stantz, Lucas was going to be Winston and I was going to be Louis Tully. We have had this plan for months ever since the movie came out.

This is the costume Peter is wearing for Halloween.

When I got to the bottom of the stairs my dad, Chris was standing there with a camera in his hands, ready to take pictures of me. "Aww sweetie you look adorable" He told me and I smiled "Thanks Dad." My dad took a few pictures of me and I posed for him. After we took a few pictures he had to leave for work. "I will see you later. Have a good day" He waved to me as he walked out of the house. I left after I heard his car pull out of the drive way. I was the last person in the house because Steve left early to pick up Nancy, my other dad and my other dad, Harry had been going to work early. I left my house and got my bike out of the garage. I hopped on my bike and started on my way to school. On my way, I met up with Mike, Dustin and Lucas and we sang the ghostbusters song on our way to the school. "Who you gonna call?" We sang as we rode up to the bike racks at school. "Ghostbusters!" Will sang. We parked our bikes in the bike racks. We all hugged calling everyone by the names of there characters but was soon stopped by Mike. "Whoa! Whoa!" Mike spoke and looked at Lucas. "What?" Lucas asked him. "Why are you Venkman?" Mike asked him, looking at his name tag. "Because I'm Venkman" Lucas told him. "No, I'm Venkman" Mike said. "Why can't there be two Venkmans?" Will asked. "Because there's only one Venkman in real life. We planned this months ago. I'm Venkman, Dustin's Stantz, You're Egon, Peter's Louis and You're Winston" Mike said, pointing to all of us. "I specifically didn't agree to Winston" Lucas spoke. "Yes, you did!" Mike told him. "I don't think he did" I said, quietly. "No one wants to be Winston, man" Lucas spoke. "What's wrong with Winston?" Mike asked. "What's wrong with Winston? He joined the team super late, he's not funny and he's not even a scientist!" Lucas explained. "Yeah, but he's still cool" Mike said. "If he's cool, then you be Winston?" Lucas asked Mike. "I can't" Mike spoke. "Why not?" Lucas asked. "B...because..." Mike stuttered. "B...because you're not black?" Lucas mocked Mike. "I didn't say that!" Mike raised his voice. "You thought it" Lucas raised his voice as well. The two of them continued fighting and I saw Dustin look away from the group. "Guys... Guys! Guys!" Dustin called and we all looked where he was looking and stood directly behind him. "Why is no one else wearing costumes?" Dustin asked as we watched the kids come out of the bus, all wearing normal clothes.

The five of us walked down the hall side by side. There was kids laughing at us and looking at us like we were crazy. "When do people make these decisions?" Dustin asked. "Everyone dressed up last year" I shrugged. "Its a conspiracy, I'm telling you" Dustin explained. "Just be cool" Mike told us. "Who you gonna call? The nerds!" A boy yelled at us.

Dustin, Lucas, Mike and I rode our Mike's down the street after school to the Wheelers house. We peddled down the street at a normal speed until Dustin looked behind us then at the three of us. "Hey, guys?" He said and the car behind us sped up. We peddled faster but the car sped up even more. "Go!" Mike yelled as we all peddled even faster. "Peter you need to haul ass!" Dustin yelled and I peddled as fast as I could. I felt like I was going to have an asthma attack as I could barely breath. "Shit! Shit! Shit! Shit!" Dustin yelled and we all rode to the part beside the road and Dustin fell to the ground once we got there. I pulled my inhaler out of my fanny pack and puffed it into my mouth twice. Once I started to get my breath back I screamed "That was fucking crazy!" Dustin stood up "Holy shit!" Was that..." "Mad Max" Lucas finished for him as we all watched the car drive away.
