Roman's POV

I was out shopping for Halloween candy, since there were plenty of kids in the apartment building that can't really go door to door. It's also gonna be the first Halloween I spend with Virgil, my amazing, talented, Halloween-obsessed boyfriend. So, even though Halloween isn't my favorite holiday, I've gotta make this perfect for Virgil, mainly so he won't break up with me. He's already assured me that he has plenty of decorations for our apartment, most of which he took from his parents when he left for college.

I'd also have to figure out what I was going to dress up as this year, and yes I'm still dressing up as an adult don't judge me. It's gonna be hard to top last year with my absolutely astonishing mummy costume.

(I know Ro dressed up like that in a video, but this is a human Au just to clarify)

Virgil had been secretive about his own costume, but I had caught him experimenting with fake blood the other day, so it's safe to say he's going to go as something 'scary' again. As my boyfriend, it's hard to be scared of the guy. Intimidated? Yes, but not scared. So every year I have to pretend to be terrified or face the consequences. Those consequences being no Disney and cuddles nights for a week. What kind of monster would leave me cold and alone, when I could be hugging my stormcloud like a teddy bear?! A true crime indeed.

There's nothing wrong with going back to the basics, zombies, witches, etc. Except that none of them are original! I need to have the most unique costume around, something that no one else would be dressed as. The first thing that comes to mind is Santa Claus simply because of the irony. It's way too hot for that though.

Damn, at this point I might have to resort to asking Remus, no matter how crazy he is, his ideas are original, much as I hate to admit. Then again he'd probably suggest male stripper or something. Actually, I could go as a lifeguard, it'd be fun to see Virgil's reaction to that. And that costume would still count as kid friendly, if someone has a problem with it then I can just put on a swim shirt or something. That idea will have to do for now, unless I can think of something better.

In the meantime, I grab the last bag of king sized candy bars we'll need. PSA: you might as well not hand out candy if you're not willing to give out the good stuff, okay? Okay. Seriously, no one likes tootsie rolls anymore, and I've never been a fan of licorice. As a kid, I was lucky enough to have Remus for a brother (never thought I'd say that) who didn't like most of the good candy. So, I could always trade him for Hershey's, Reese's, KitKat's, Butterfinger's, etc.

That might be the only good thing about being related to Remus, other than the fact that you don't have to worry about getting mugged. Once he was waiting outside for me while I was buying Virgil a gift, some guy pushed him into the alley and pulled a knife on him. Remus being Remus, immediately started moaning and screeching 'yes daddy!' at the top of his lungs. Needless to say, I walked outside and found and had to stop Remus from chasing that guy down and tormenting him further.

I head home, still contemplating what my costume would be, and I decide to ask Virgil for ideas. He is the Halloween master out of the two of us, even though he'd suggest something that requires a lot of fake blood and makeup.

Man, why is this so freaking hard? "Hey Virgi-" I stop not even a second after opening the door to our apartment. This place looks like a room gay out of The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Everything's dark, there are purple and orange LED lights lining the wall, and there are more fake spiderwebs than I count at the moment, "Virge?" I called into the seemingly apartment.

"Welcome back," I spot him sitting on the counter, petting what appears to be a fake spider, "Like what I've done with the place?"

I take it back, Virgil is freaking terrifying, "Yeah, looks great. Are you okay though?"

"Perfectly fine, thanks for asking," His words are clipped, and sound fake. Does he have some kind of Halloween-induced split personality I never knew about? Because that would have been great to know beforehand, "I'm just excited for All Hallow's Eve."

"You mean Halloween?" Literally the only person that I've ever heard call that is Logan.

"Yes exactly!" He exclaims, hopping up into a standing position on the counter.

"Okay emo, I think you've had a little too much caffeine," I set the bag of candy down and carefully approached him. This happens a lot, and sometimes he'll willingly get down and rest. Other times, like now, he hisses at me and throws an unopened thing of paper plates at me, "Virge!" I warn, before wrapping my arms around his legs and picking him up that way.

He struggles, and I loosen my grip enough for him to touch the ground. From there, I pick him up bridal style and carry him to our room, far away from the coffee maker. Maybe it wasn't a good idea to introduce him to Remy...

He ends up simply pouting in my arms, giving up on the whole escape plan. I set him down and pulled the messy covers over him, "You try to get some sleep now sunshine, I'm gonna make sure the candy doesn't melt."

"'M not sunshine, I strike fear into the hearts of my enemiesss," He slurs sleepily, crashing from the caffeine overdose.

"Mhm, sure ya do." 

A/N: This chapter is such a mess XD My only plan going into this was just a mental image of Virgil in his vampire costume, on a counter, screeching
