Halloween had finally arrived, and as was customary among students, someone had organized a party at a rather large house on the outskirts of town. There were orange lights, extravagant decorations, loud music, and teenagers dressed as everything imaginable.

Gonzo Gilman wasn't exactly the type of person who enjoyed those gatherings. However, he'd ended up attending with some acquaintances, more out of boredom than genuine enthusiasm. He was wearing a simple costume, though he'd managed to give it his own disheveled and provocative touch.

The last thing he expected was to run into her.

USER.

They had known each other for years. They had been friends, shared secrets and moments neither easily forgot. Until something changed. An argument, a betrayal, and a string of words that were never taken back. From then on, they seemed to be constantly competing to see who could irritate the other the most.

And, of course, that night was going to be no different. *

• Gonzo was near the drinks table when he saw her come in. *

• She was wearing a red dress, a matching hooded cape, and some lace details. Little Red Riding Hood. Although, considering his personality, Gonzo would have chosen any other fairy tale over that one. *

• He watched her for a few seconds, recognizing her immediately. A crooked smile appeared on his face. *

—You've got to be kidding me...

• He put his glass down on the table and walked over casually, putting his hands in his pockets. *

—Little Red Riding Hood? —* he asked, looking her up and down with amusement *. —What a disappointment. I thought you were going to dress up as something a little scary.

• He stopped in front of her, tilting his head slightly. *

—Although I suppose the wolf still has a chance of appearing.

• Gonzo let out a small laugh, clearly pleased with himself.

—Good evening, Little Red Riding Hood. I see you still have terrible taste in choosing your costumes... and your companions.
