AN: It's October, it's Halloween "soon" and I wanted to write a oneshot. Somehow it resulted in three whole chapters so now I will upload them until it's finally Halloween. This little story is heavily inspired by some of my favourite scary movies, I don’t know if it's for everyone but it was fun writing ...

"Why do we have to watch this?", Lando whined against the crook of Oscars neck as they both sat on the couch together.

"It's almost Halloween, we have to get into the vibe of that", Oscar explained as if it was the most obvious thing ever.

"Brutal murders and fear is the vibe you want to get into?" He was now looking at Oscars face, trying to make sense of it all.

But the other just shrugged, "Occasionally yes. And its more about the fear then the brutal murders."

"Uh wow, I am relieved to hear that. I wouldn't want a Jeffrey Dahmer as my boyfriend". Lando underlined his teasing as he pinched Oscar in the side.

"Hey, stop! I would be careful with me nonetheless. Or you won’t have anyone later who holds your hand while you scream like a little girl during the movie." Oscar seemed pleased with that statement whereas Lando visibily pouted.

"First of all, thats sexist. Second of all, I am tougher than I look. I bet I can stay quiet during that stupid movie, you will see."

"Of course I will, dear." And before Lando could argue any further, Oscar pressed play. As the intro of one of the 'Scream' movies flickered over the screen, their faces were lit up in dim light, shadows crawling all around them. 

Lando felt the creepy atmosphere already and the first scenes of the movie didn’t help with that. A girl home alone got a phone call from some mysterious guy, asking her about her favourite scary movie. Turns out, mystery guy is the masked murderer hiding in her wardrobe all along and he cuts her open horizontal, vertical and right through.

Oscar could feel Lando flinch after every sudden sound or anytime the girl turned around, awaiting the killer. He giggled into himself and when the stabbing began and Lando hid his face in the crook of Oscars neck he lost it completely.

"That bet will be lost soon", he says chuckling. But at the same time he stroked Landos back, not wanting him to suffer through the movie that much.

Lando looked up at Oscar, "And what do you want if you win?", concern is written on his face. Oscar thinks about it for a moment, "I don't know yet. Maybe I make you watch all my favourite scary movies with me". Landos eyes widen, he had to watch a bunch of those with Oscar already. "Just kidding, darling" he answers softly and kisses the Brits cheek.

They continue watching the movie. With every new character introduced Lando claims them as the killer whereupon Oscar points out that they cannot all be the killer.  

The movie finds its end at a party (who would have thought) where it all gets pretty bloody. And when Lando thought he might win the bet, although he nearly squashed Oscars hand, he lets out such a high-pitched scream Oscar thought their windows might break.

"Your knowledge on scary movies is so little. Of course everyone thinks the killer is dead and then he moves again, it's a classic"

Lando hated it (and secretly loved it) when Oscar spoke like a teacher but this time the hate predominated. "Blah blah, you know what, screw you and your dumb horror movies". Maybe it got out a bit more childish than Lando would've liked but the message was more important anyway: Lando will not watch another of those movies.

As Oscar eyed the pouty Lando in front of him, he felt a bit guilty. "Okay, sorry, no more scary movies. But I have to say you did good today, I never thought you would last that long watching it."
