Clare, Alice, Max, and Lance walked to the mall together. Max was going to hang out at the game store with Lance to help him with running tables and check out the new character pieces they had in. Alice stopped by Clare’s store with her just to see her off. Stella had gone ahead home to “deal with family things” she had said.

Max inhaled as they entered. “Ah, consumerism,” he sighed. “That is our future, friends.”

Alice rolled her eyes around the mall and its budding holiday garb. “Is it just a goth-thing to hate trends or do you really hate commercialism?”

Max widened his eyes hysterically. “How can you not see the doom this country is headed for? Do you want a senseless white-color job that furthers the destruction of imagination and humans as we know them?”

“Hey, Alice,” Flynn said when they walked in. Max and Lance veered off to the game store. “Didn’t know you knew our girl here.”

“How do you know Alice?” Clare asked.

“My dad goes to his evangelical biker party things,” Alice informed her now dumbfounded friend.

“Okay,” Clare whispered under her breath. “So about everything I told you and Lance.” She pulled Alice to the back next to the Venetian masks to whisper. “Thank you for not freaking out and calling me crazy. I was so scared to tell you all. You can’t imagine.”

Alice smiled, her white teeth showing brightly in her dark face. “Don’t worry, Clare. We’re your friends. Do you know what that means?”

Clare faked looking thoughtful and stared intently up at the ceiling. “Um, that you will tell me I need to grow up and not dress up for Halloween?”

Alice smacked her friend playfully on the arm. “That’s mocking Al. Not nice. Besides, don’t your parents say the same thing to you? About going to college and getting a real job?”

They did. Every day.

“I want to find out what a ‘real job’ is for me anyway,” she replied. “Why can’t my life be different?”

“Customers, girls!” Flynn called from the front.
