(Wow. I'm doing this. Okay.)

     "Stop!"

Elysia's heart stopped as she turned around. One of the other Halloween party-goers, dressed as a cop, was staring at her, a frown on their face. She blinked nervously, suddenly wondering if this was a real cop? Oh god, what did I do, I don't think I did anything but-?

"You're under arrest," the other demoness said, stalking towards Elysia. As much as she wanted to, Elysia couldn't move, her feet firmly stuck to the ground. Yet in the back of her mind, she couldn't help think maybe dressing as a suspicious individual was a bad idea. Especially at Mila's parties.

"Sorry for freaking you out," she said, showing a sharp-toothed smile. "But the coincidence was too good to pass up."

"Tamarind," the other offered, pulling on the hem of her shirt. "Want to exchange numbers?"

"Sure."

The two quickly pulled out their phones and gave each other their numbers. They then spent the rest of the night together, laughing and getting to know each other better.

They went on a couple kinda-dates, then several more real ones, then years later ended up married.
