"OH, I WANT TO SEE THOSE PEARLS. Yeah!" Their mum said as she snapped pictures of Dustin in his ghostbusters costume.

Bea laughed as she heard the music playing in the background and the camera shutter going off.

"Who you gonna call," mum called out and Dustin turned to look at Bea who was sitting on the cat, stroking Mews.

"Careful with Mews honey," Mum said before snapping a few more pictures of Dustin.

Bea picked up her polaroid camera that was sitting on the coffee table, despite what Jonathan said about the quality not being as good she loved the effect that the Polaroid cameras had.

"Come on Stanz, strike a pose," Bea said as she took a few pictures whilst he posed. "Are you sure you are meant to wear costumes?" Bea asked and Dustin nodded his head vigorously.

"Obviously, it's Halloween," he said and Bea walked over, ruffling his hair slightly as she laughed.

"Ok, you two need a picture, come on Bea," Mum said and Bea sighed. She had become a lot closer with her mum in the last year than she ever had been in her whole life.

She leaned in and wrapped in arm around Dustin's shoulders, hearing their mum snap a few photos before stopping and smiling at her kids.

"Have a good day, see you when you get home," their mum said before the two walked out the door. Dustin biked in to school and Bea got in her car, driving there.

They had a free period and Bea, Steve and Nancy decided to go to study hall. About half way through, Nancy broke her pencil and stood up, walking over and sharpening it.

"Hey, is she alright?" Bea asked and they turned to see Nancy staring into the distance, sharpening her pencil too much.

Steve sighed, getting up and placing a hand on her shoulder, snapping her out of her little daydream or whatever. Bea sighed, putting her head back in the book and allowing the happy couple to have their moment. When Bea looked back up she realised that they had gone so she let out an exasperated sigh and looked back at the book.

BEA WAITED WITH THE BOYS AS THEY drove up to the Wheelers house, parking out front.

She ran over to Jonathan who was laughing at her costume.

It was Morticia Adaams from the cartoon, long black dress and long black sleeves with perfectly straight hair.

"Oh come on Jonathan, I love it," she said spinning around before Will got out the car.

"Nice costume Peanut, happy Halloween," Bea said and he grinned at her before watching her get in the car. Jonathan handed Will the camcorder before Will ran off.
