Anyway, here's the imagine!

"Is Hailey on her way yet?" you asked Jay excitedly as you started to pour yourself a cup of coffee.

"She just texted and said she's on her way. She said she's grabbing coffee on her way here, too," he answered.

"Oh," you slid your mug of coffee towards him. "You can have this one then. Guess I don't need it."

Jay chuckled. "She didn't say she's bringing you anything."

"Hailey loves me," you countered. "If she said she's getting coffee, then that means she's getting some for me, too."

"Well, she loves me more, seeing as I am her boyfriend. So, she'll probably bring me coffee, too. So, I don't need this." He poured your mug of coffee back into the coffee pot seeing as you hadn't drank any yet.

"I hope she gets me a pumpkin spice latte," you said.

"You and your pumpkin everything." He looked at your shirt. "Nice shirt."

"Thanks, wonder who got it for me," you joked.

Last year, Jay had been scrolling through Amazon (because apparently, he does that at work when he's bored and has nothing to do) and he saw a gray t-shirt that said it's all a bunch of hocus pocus. The shirt had some little spooky designs on it and the three witches' outlines from the movie Hocus Pocus in white on it as well. And, you'd be damned if you didn't wear it at the bare minimum once a week during the month of October...the first of October and Halloween were the days you felt it was mandatory to wear your Hocus Pocus t-shirt...unless you got a different Halloween shirt during that month. 

"Why do you like October so much anyway?" Jay asked.

"Because," you started, "you can wear long sleeves without having to bundle up, fall candles are the best, I like the rain, and it smells good...and Halloween."

Jay raised an eyebrow. "It smells good?"

"You know, that crisp outdoorsy smell and the smell after the rain. I like that."

"You're so weird."

You rolled your eyes and then the doorbell rang, alerting you that Hailey was here.

"I gotta go grab some money," you said quickly and ran off to your room.

After Jay let Hailey inside, he beckoned her into his bedroom and handed her a small pile of photos.

"When you're at the craft store," Jay started, "can you get these framed? I'd go, but it'd look suspicious...and I have to catch up on some paperwork."

"Of course," Hailey answered as she started sifting through the pictures. They were all cute pictures of you when you were younger, some of just you, some with your brothers, and some with your whole family. It was obvious that they were all taken around fall/Halloween time. "What are they for?"

"Halloween's Y/N's favorite holiday and I was thinking of giving her these and then us doing a bunch of stuff on the 30th and the 31st together. You can come if you want. I think she'd actually appreciate you coming since all her friends from high school are off at college and all her friends from college work most weekends. I've also told her enough horror stories about Halloween parties I've busted that hopefully, she won't even want to go to one even though she's 21."
