"Why do you do it?" I whisper, looking to the male who sat beside me "Why do you come back every Halloween?"

Han looks at me "Because they deserve to be terrorized, they don't deserve to live in peace"

I look away and down to my lap "They deserve worse Minho, they should be lucky we aren't truly that bad"

I nod slowly "I guess I get it, I just..." I look up and shrug, my eyes on the dark lake ahead "I think I just don't understand the part of y'all coming back" I slowly look to him "If I had chance to leave, I would. I'll never look back"

Han just stares at me, "What's holding you back?"

I look down momentarily, looking back up I say "I can't leave, not yet at least" I notice he was about to question me but I spoke up again. "Why did you invite me tonight?"

Han chuckle and looks away finally, "Why not?"

"That's not an answer"

Han looks at me briefly, a smirk on his face "Sure it is, just not one you want to hear"

I pout and look away from him.

The silence surrounded us again before he spoke up.

"I watched you"

I didn't look him, but I felt his eyes on me.

"I noticed you were different, from all the rest of them" His voice was low, sending chills down my back. "A little wicked, a little devil"

"And what? You wanted to prove that?" I look at him.

"No, I just wanted to know what made you that way"

"Nothing"

Han nods slowly "You can deny it, but something happens to all of us to make us this way"

His hand goes to my face and tucks a hair behind my ear. His hands were oddly warm, cozy and I wanted to lean into the touch but I didn't because he pulled away.
