Ineffable Husbands Oneshots

Friday Nights

Prompt: Aziraphale gets scared during a horror movie and Crowley comforts him. Or the opposite perhaps?

This is for @Floopofdafloop I hope you like it!! And sorry it happened so late! 

It had been an entirely new development of theirs, this watching of films (as Aziraphale called it). But nevertheless, it became a tradition of the new couple that every Friday night they'd watch a film at Crowley's flat and give their own review afterwards.

All while unabashedly cuddling.

Crowley, for all intents and purposes, did not call it cuddling.

He refused to even acknowledge the word.

Don't even get him started on the word hug.

He's supposed to be a demon for heav-, hel-, oh fuck it, somebody's sake.

He called it Phase I. Why? Well, first is phase 1, with Aziraphale as the warm comforter, then it's on to Phase II...... snogging, and well Phase III is well...you get the idea.

Aziraphale thinks it hilarious how his dearest demon (also a new development that Crowley secretly-not so secretly-loves) named these things Phase I, II, and III as if the poor dear were trying to tempt or better-thwart- him.

Nevertheless, the angel humors him and lets him be.

Tonight, Friday night, was no exception in their new tradition and Aziraphale had said he was ready to watch a "scary film". Crowley was absolutely thrilled about it.

But what should they watch?

There are so many options.

Well......

Actually....

I mean....if he were being very very honest, he doesn't necessarily partake in the watching of any scary movies.

He did though have plenty of involvement in the making of them, however.

It's not like he was scared or anything.

Okay, maybe he was..... alittle.

But he had to be strong for his angel.

So now his options were limited. What would be scary enough for the both of them?

And something with a good plot too.

Think, think, Crowley.....

I got it.

He produced a copy of the film, 'Ghosts' by Michael Jackson.

Not exactly Aziraphale's taste in music, and not exactly scary either, but he knows that the angel was acquainted with the man many years ago. Even met him as a child and gave him a small blessing, he did.

Crowley was actually at the making of 'Thriller' back in the 80s, and was impressed with what he saw. Humans can be really just remarkable.

Aziraphale was already seated at his spot waiting for Crowley so that they could phase I.

Crowley inserted the disc and phased I it.

As soon as the 'Michael Jackson's Ghosts' came on at the beginning, he turned to find his angel with a smile that could light up the world.

Satisfied with what he saw, he turned back to watch the film.

..............................................................................................................

At the end of it, Aziraphale gushed about the musical performance as well as the plot.

"Oh but dearest, did you see the costumes the dancers had on? It looked so real! Oh and the way they all danced, it was simply lovely! Talent, the lot of them have!"

"I know you said that you were ready for a scary movie but I wanted to go easy on you for your first time, angel".

"Dearest, as much as I appreciate the gesture, I am more than capable of withstanding a scary film.........are you sure that it's you that's rather somewhat frightened at the prospect of watching a spooky film, or perhaps watching a spooky film itself ?''

"Me? Nah, big sssspooky fan, me.''

Aziraphale pets his boyfriend, who was now a serpent, curled on his lap.

"Sure, my dear, whatever you say.", he says, smiling knowingly.
