There were a few different types of people when it came to Halloween. There were the horror buffs, the Christians, the children, and the spooky, but not scary skeletons.
Y/n was definitely a spooky, but not scary skeleton. She adored Halloween, but not the scary parts. She loved decorations, candy, jack-o-lanterns, and even Halloween themed movies. Just not Horror.
The woman was easily scared. Which is why she refused to join her teammates during their scary movie marathon. While the rest of her friends were camping out in the den, she was alone in her room.
It was better this way. She couldn't have nightmares about dying a horrific death, if she avoided the material entirely.
She was in her bed, scrolling through her phone, when her bedroom door opened. She peeked over the screen to see her girlfriend in the doorway.
Natasha walked across the room and plopped herself in the bed. Her arms wrapped securely around Y/n's waist. She placed a gentle kiss on the woman's collarbone.
" What happened to the fright fest in the living room?"
Natasha caught her eyes," I'd rather be in here with you."
Y/n put her phone down," I sense ulterior motives."
Natasha's eyes darted away, "No, just wanted to be with my incredible girlfriend..."
Y/n squints her eyes," For a world renowned spy, you've never been good at lying to me."
She sighed, her hand found Y/n's, interlocking their fingers," Come watch a movie with us, just one."
Y/n shook her head," Natasha, you know I don't like horror movies. I don't get what's so fun about being terrified. "
" I'll protect you from the monsters," Natasha squeezes the other woman's hand.
Usually Y/n wouldn't have caved in so easily, but the mixture of her girlfriend begging and boredom was a formidable force.
" And the demons?"
" The demons, the witches, and murderers," Natasha kisses the back of Y/n's hand.
" Fine, one movie."
Y/n lets Natasha pull her out of bed and lead her to the den. Nat plops down in her seat next to Wanda and Y/n falls onto her lap.
" You guys have my venmo right?" Wanda speaks to the men of the team.
" Y/n, you hate scary movies," Clint complains.
" And you're so stubborn," Tony adds.
Steve shrugs," I told you guys not to bet against Wanda."
Y/n cuddles further into Natasha," Glad someone can profit off of my misery."
" Fear not Y/n, everything on the screen is fictional," Thor tries to comfort the girl.
" She knows that," Sam told him.
Bucky interjects," Well, unless it's based on a true story."
" Can we just put the movie on, before I change my mind," Y/n stops the chatter.
" We're watching SAW, just to warn you," Bruce's words cause Y/n to try to get up and leave.
Natasha's grip on the girl tightens," I promised to protect you, didn't I?"
" Saw is legitimately torture. We couldn't have done like Scream or Nightmare on Elm Street. Or any movie with bad editing and graphics that looks fake and unrealistic," Y/n begins to ramble.
" We watched those earlier," Tony shrugs at the girl.
The movie started and Natasha could feel Y/n's body stiffen. She peppered some light kisses behind the girl's ear. " I'll tell you when to close your eyes, ok? I've got you."
Y/n nodded then whispered," I trust you."
True to her word, Natasha signaled Y/n to close her eyes throughout the movie. There were times when Y/n wanted to close them, but Natasha promised her it wasn't bad. While Y/n still witnessed an abundance of the psychological torture, she missed most of the gore.
Hearing the sounds alone put the girl on edge. She was not having a good time at all. Y/n wished she'd stayed in her room. SAW was definitely a level 8 horror movie, and she could at most do a level 4.
Towards the middle of the movie, she was trembling in Natasha's arms. She kept muttering to herself every time something scary happened," I hate this. I hate this. I hate this."
Natasha felt bad seeing Y/n like that. Maybe it was a mistake forcing her to sit through the movie. Natasha had seen the movie plenty of times, she could miss the second half. Y/n needed her.
" Let's go baby," Natasha stood and Y/n clung to the spy like a koala.
The others were too enthralled with the gore to comment.
When they got back to the room, Y/n didn't let go of Natasha.
" Y/n, baby?"
The girl just buried her head deeper into Natasha's neck.
" I'm sorry, no more horror movies. I promise."
The girl still didn't respond. Natasha walked over to the bed and flopped on the bed with Y/n in her arms. That caused the scared girl to laugh a bit.
" Can we cuddle and watch Scary Godmother?"
" The cartoon?"
Y/n nodded rapidly," After so much psychological torture and murder, I need a cartoon."
" Anything you want, baby," Natasha made herself comfortable in bed.
"And um... no games for awhile," Y/n added as she started the PG-rated movie.
Natasha furrowed her eyebrows," Like any games? Or just-"
" All games," Y/n answered swiftly.
Natasha swung her arm around the woman," Got it, no games."
The two got comfortable watching the childish film. The scary thoughts that had swarmed Y/n's mind during the horror film were slowly making their way out. With the warmth radiating off of Natasha and the silly movie on the screen, she felt safe.
She was still not a big horror fan, but maybe it wasn't so bad if she ended up watching a childish movie in her girlfriend's arms.
