Summary: Mitchel and Christian have a spooky date night in.

As spooky season is now upon us, get ready for some scream-worthy stories (this one isn't smut, unfortunately; however, some nice kinky Halloween smut?!) 😏

______________

   "Ready?" Mitchel whispers in the dark living room of the couple's apartment.

   Mitchel slips a DVD into their television. The once black screen lights up red. The red light bounces off all the furniture in the small room, hitting Mitchel and Christian's pale skin, illuminating the room around them.

   "What is this?" Christian wiggles his butt further into the couch.

   The rough material of the cheap couch presses against Christian's skin as he gets comfortable. The springs beneath the cushions squeak as he wiggles around. Mitchel grabs the remote off of the television stand and situates himself next to Christian. He grabs a fluffy blanket with a black cat pattern and throws it over their legs. The bowl of popcorn justles as Mitchel leans over and grabs it from the end table.

   "It's a scarRrYy movie," Mitchel says in his best ghost impression as he runs his fingers along Christian's side.

   The blonde erupts into laughter from Mitchel's light touch. Mitchel presses his fingers harder into Christian's side making the other boy laugh harder.

   "Okay.. okay!" Christian heaves.

   Mitchel removes his hands from Christian and holds them up in the air, "Alright."

   Christian places a firm kiss on Mitchel's mouth before leaning away to catch his breath. The boys turn to the screen that is now full of a start screen for the movie Scream 4.

   "This again?" Christian groans.

   "It's a Halloween classic. We have to." Mitchel grabs Christian's hand under the blanket and gives it a squeeze.

   Christian gives Mitchel's hand a squeeze back as the movie starts. The screen floods with the opening scene. Characters run around the screen as eerie music plays in the background. The two boys on the couch scoot closer together as the movie starts, Christian resting his head on Mitchel's strong shoulders.

   Mitchel twists his head and places a gentle kiss on the top of Christian's head. The light from the screen reflects off the blonde's glossy eyes, making them shine more than ever.

   "I love you so much," Mitchel whispers before turning back to the screen.

   As the movie whines down, Christian stretches out his long legs. His knee pops, releasing the built-up pressure from sitting still for so long. Mitchel lifts his arm from the back of the couch as his hand lets go of Christian's shoulder. He lifts the blankets off of his legs and hoists himself off of the couch.

   Mitchel's bones crack as he stands up. He glides his hands down his shirt, straightening all of the wrinkles.

   "Now what?" Christian inquires.

   "Huh..?" Mitchel lets out a yawn.

   "What else do you have planned for our little Halloween date?"

   Mitchel's brain slowly realizes what Christian is saying, "Ohhhh! It's a secret." he giggles.

   Mitchel runs off to the kitchen pantry. He slides open the painted wooden door, revealing shelves full of canned and boxed food. The boy squats down and pushes aside a big cardboard box. He pulls out two large pumpkins and a plastic bag full of pumpkin carving tools. The tools crash into the table as Mitchel tosses them in the air.
