Lucy's POV

Today, it's Halloween! I can't wait, every year me and Darcy go trick or treating together, and one or two of our bros go with us.

"Hey, let's go buy you two a Halloween costume each!" Tom comes into the garden, as me and Darcy are kicking a football around.
"Yay!" I say.
"Awesome, yeah," Darcy adds and we walk towards Tom.

We always get a new Halloween costume every year! Luke and or Leo usually take us to buy them, but, this time, it's Tom as Luke is out seeing his mates and Leo is helping one of his friends move house. Harry is doing homework and revision in his room as he's got exams soon.

"Anyone wanna sit in the front?" Tom smirks at us as we walk down the driveway to his car, which is a BMW type.
"Me! Me! Please!" Darcy squeals.
"No! Me!" I laugh, sassing back - we never get to sit in the front when Leo or Luke is around! There's no point asking them.
"Just don't tell Luke or Leo! They will literally kill me! And you can swap, one in front on way there and one in front on way back," Tom chuckles as we get into his car.
"Ok, me first!" Darcy says, I roll my eyes but get into the back.

The car ride was...interesting, that's one way you could put it! Tom had the music really loud, windows all down, and drove pretty fast! Honestly, without Luke and Leo near him, he's so immature - it is really funny though, he always knows how to make us laugh.

We go to a few shops and Tom makes us try on loads of different costumes!

"How about this one?" Tom holds up a little red dress with a devil horn head band.
"Oooh, that's quite cute, but I think I like this one," Darcy holds up a girl vampire costume.
"Scary but nice," Tom nods approvingly.
"Lucy, I think that red devil dress would suit you!" Darcy nods at me, grinning.
"Fine, I will try it on," I take it out of Tom's hands and pull it over my leggings and ti shirt.
"No, too short!" Tom frowns when I show them.
"I like it," I smile.
"Yeah, I think you should wear that," Darcy dazzles her eyes at Tom.
"No, because Luke and Leo will not be happy that I bought you a short Halloween dress!" Tom frowns.
"Aw, come on! Please! I like this costume!" I flutter my eyelids.

We come out of the shop with our costumes, eventually Tom caved in and let me have the dress, though he said he's not taking responsibility for it!

"Hey, did you get your costumes, for tonight?" Harry says, coming downstairs when we get back home.
"Yeah! I got a vampire costume," Darcy smiles, showing Harry.
"Nice," he comments.
"I've got a red devil dress," I hold my dress up against my body.
"Uh oh, it's quite short!" Harry frowns slightly, crossing his arms, "Tom..."
"Trust me, it wasn't me, they made me buy it - they gave me the puppy dog eyes treatment Harry!" Tom puts his hands up in surrender.
"Ok ok, but when Luke and Leo come home then your in for it," Harry smirks.
"Yes, ok little bro," Tom rolls his eyes, laughing.

"What are we having for lunch?" Darcy asks.
"Good question, how about sandwiches because that's the only thing I can make!" Tom says.
"Or I'll make some pasta," Harry replies.
"Yeah!" I grin, Harry was a better cook than Tom...in fact anyone is a better cook than Tom!
"LUCY!" Tom yells, pretending to be angry but laughing.

I run through the house as fast as I can, I go outside and run around the other side of our huge pool, and I see Tom smirking, ready to run and chase me again, waiting, opposite me, on the other side of the pool.

"I said that out loud, didn't I?" I asked Tom, laughing.
"Yep!" He nods. "I'm coming to get you!" Tom runs around, and I squeal.
"NO! Please!" I giggle, sprinting down the longside of the pool.

Alas, my feet slip on the slippery surface, I scream, and over balance, before I know it, I'm falling backwards, into the pool. My body hits the cold surface, and I go under, it's so cold, it's nearly November! It's freezing! I try to swim up to the surface, but my clothes are weighing me down. I struggle, I can't hold on for much longer, I need air, I need to breath, it feels like a lifetime.
