As the crisp autumn air filled the room, Y/N and Felix sat at the kitchen table, surrounded by a pile of pumpkins. Halloween was just around the corner, and the two had decided to spend the evening carving pumpkins together. It was a tradition they both looked forward to every year.

Felix had selected a particularly large pumpkin, its bright orange skin practically begging to be transformed into a work of art. Y/N, on the other hand, had chosen a smaller one, with just as much potential for greatness. The table was covered in newspapers, carving tools, and a multitude of pumpkin guts, ready for the artistic battle to commence.

"Alright, Felix, let the competition begin!" Y/N declared, her eyes twinkling with excitement.

Felix grinned, his eyes equally bright with anticipation. "You're on, Y/N. Let's see who can create the spookiest, most amazing pumpkin!"

As they began to carve, their creativity flowed freely. Y/N meticulously carved out the classic face of a jack-o'-lantern, complete with a wicked grin and triangular eyes. She took her time, wanting to make every detail perfect.

Felix, on the other hand, went for a more whimsical approach. He decided to carve a friendly ghost, its arms outstretched in a welcoming gesture. The design was intricate and charming, showcasing his talent for artistic detail.

As the hours passed, they worked diligently on their pumpkins, occasionally glancing at each other's progress. The competition was fierce, and neither of them wanted to back down.

When they were both finally satisfied with their creations, they set their pumpkins side by side on the kitchen table, stepping back to admire their handiwork. Y/N's jack-o'-lantern had a classic, sinister charm, while Felix's ghost was filled with whimsy and charm.

Their friends and fellow Stray Kids members had gathered around to witness the pumpkin showdown. Changbin, Hyunjin, Jeongin, and Minho were all in attendance, ready to judge the competition.

"Alright, everyone, it's time to cast your votes!" Y/N announced, excitement in her voice.

Each member carefully inspected the pumpkins, deliberating over their decision. After a few minutes, they each held up a piece of paper with their choice written on it. The results were unanimous: Felix had won the competition.

Felix beamed with pride, taking in the praise and congratulations from his fellow members. "Thank you, guys! I put my heart and soul into that pumpkin."

Y/N couldn't help but feel a twinge of disappointment, though she masked it with a gracious smile. "Well done, Felix. Your pumpkin is amazing."

As the night wore on, Y/N's disappointment lingered, but she did her best to enjoy the rest of the evening, filled with laughter and camaraderie. Felix noticed her subdued mood and decided to address it when they finally had a moment alone.

He led her to the back porch, where they could gaze at the starry night sky and have a quiet conversation. "Hey, Y/N, I noticed you seemed a bit down after the pumpkin competition. Are you okay?"

Y/N sighed, her shoulders slumping. "I guess I just really wanted to win, and I put so much effort into my pumpkin. But I'm happy for you, Felix. Your pumpkin was truly fantastic."

Felix took her hands in his, looking deep into her eyes. "Y/N, I want you to know that if it were up to me, you would have won. Your pumpkin was incredible, and it was so classic and spooky. I loved it."

Y/N felt her heart warm at Felix's words, and she couldn't help but smile. "Thank you, Felix. That means a lot to me."

Felix pulled her into a warm embrace, holding her close. "Remember, it's all in good fun. I know you have incredible talent, and there will be plenty of other opportunities for you to shine. Plus, I think your pumpkin was the best."

Y/N's spirits lifted as she hugged Felix back. She realized that winning the competition wasn't as important as the time they had spent together, creating memories and enjoying the Halloween season with their friends.

As they stood on the porch, surrounded by the laughter of their friends and the twinkling stars above, Y/N and Felix knew that they were winners in the most important competition of all—the competition of love and friendship. They shared a sweet kiss, grateful for each other and the warmth of the season.

The night continued with pumpkin-spiced treats, ghost stories, and laughter, reminding them that the spirit of Halloween was about more than just competitions; it was about togetherness and the joy of celebrating with the people they loved.
