i'll be that somebody for you

3. Halloween

"It should be a crime to be that hot" Yeosang sighed as he stared at his own reflection, stroking his wig.

It was Halloween and Yeosang chose to dress up as Harley Quinn to go to their party. Wooyoung fixed his best friend with a look and sighed. Was Yeosang falling in love with himself?

"And it should be a crime to be that full of yourself" Wooyoung commented knotting his Gryffindor tie.

Yeosang gave him a dark look, making Wooyoung chuckle.

"So, who will be there?" Jongho asked while putting fake blood on his face and clothes.

"Seonghwa-hyung will pick us up in a few minutes and we'll join Wooyoungie's new friends there,"

A former high school friend of Yunho, Mingi and San was throwing a Halloween party at his house. From what Wooyoung understood, that guy loved Halloween. His Halloween parties were always an event at school. It was something they couldn't miss. Yunho offered Wooyoung to come and told him to bring his friends if they wanted to. Wooyoung found it a bit odd, they didn't really know each other (they spent only one night together). Yunho saw his confusion and simply said "the more the merrier". Wooyoung agreed because he really needed to go out and spend a good night far from his work. Maybe he also agreed because of San.

Days after Yunho's invitation, a group chat was created. Yunho created it and added Hongjoong, Mingi, San and Wooyoung. He simply asked if everyone will go to Jinyoung's party for Halloween. Wooyoung saw the message but didn't reply straight away. San saw that and sent him a text, privately, to ask him if he would come. Wooyoung didn't know if it was just out of curiosity or if San wanted him to come. He preferred not to try to answer that question. It wasn't important.

Seonghwa, dressed up as a special agent, came to pick them up. Zombie Jongho sat on the passenger seat while Yeosang Quinn and Wooyoung Potter sat behind. The ride took less than an hour but it didn't feel that long.

It's been a while since they saw each other. It was maybe last summer or for Yeosang's birthday in June, Wooyoung couldn't remember. Yeosang and Seonghwa were in their third year of med school, Jongho entered his second year in Sports and Wooyoung had a lot of work between program writing, editing videos and his project with Hongjoong and Mingi. They saw each other for a lunch or because they bumped into themselves at the university, but someone was always missing. The car was filled with little stories, laughs and music.

Sometimes, Wooyoung thought he was heartless and incapable of love. His former partners always reproach him for being cold or not having feelings. They always said that it was like he forced himself not to get attached. But when Wooyoung was with friends, these fears were gone. He wasn't heartless, he was capable of love and getting attached to someone. Yeosang, Jongho and Seonghwa were the living proof of that.

Seonghwa found a parking spot not far from the house and they walked to the address Wooyoung was given. They couldn't get wrong: the whole house was decorated as if it was haunted. They entered and Wooyoung easily found his new friends thanks to giant Yunho and Mingi who were taller than everyone.

The first was disguised as Thor, wearing a soft armour with fake abs and an ugly blonde wig. Mingi was wearing a black outfit with a black cap that ended at his ankles. At first, Wooyoung thought he was some warlock or something but Mingi turned his head to the left and he saw what was supposed to be blood at the corner of his lips and concluded he was dressed up as a vampire. Hongjoong was dressed as a pirate, not any pirate but Zoro from One Piece. He even bleached his hair in light green to match the character's hair and put on a black headband. As for San...

"You're a Slytherin?" Wooyoung let out with shock.

Wooyoung Potter didn't know what was more shocking between the fact that San and he were almost wearing the same costume or the fact that San chose Slytherin. He could complain about San's choice but dressed up like this, San was hot.
