"What was that about?" I shrugged and walked towards Ike. "What do you mean shrug? You were talking with her so you should know!" I shrugged again, just to bug him, and looked in the bag. "Which is mine?" I stuck my head in the bag and dug around. "The white and black one. Don't touch the other stuff." I pulled at the costume he describe and it was cool looking. "You got me a skeleton costume..?"
"Yeah, cause you have skinny little noodle arms so it'll match the outfit, plus you have white hair!" I rolled my eyes and poked his stomach. "What did you get?"
"You'll see when you get out from changing, now go change!"
"Okay mum." I grabbed my costume and walked the the bathroom that was down the hall.

~time skip because I'm not writing about him putting on clothes~

I knocked on our dorm door, "Are you done yet?!" No answer. "Okay I'm coming in I swear if your naked!" I opened the door and Ike was standing in front of the mirror looking at himself. "Hey why didn't you answer the door?" He turned to me and he was holding back a laugh. "What's so- oh my god." Ike was dressed up as Ike... From Smash bros and Fire emblem. I started to crack up, "No one will get that joke if they don't know you, but you look awesome!" Ike gave me a small smile and walked over to me, "and you look like a dork." I puffed out my cheeks and pouted. "I'm joking! Anyway close your eyes I still have to put the costume stuff on." I closed my eyes, "I thought the blue hair spray and stuff was your costume?"
"Nah, I still have one last detail to add." I heated the sound of bags moving and then a tap on my shoulder. I opened my eyes and turned around. Wow classic. "What do you think?" Ike spun around like he was a fashion model or something..."It's a t-shirt saying "This is my Halloween costume.." He nodded and stopped spinning like a dork. "Yup! Ready to leave and free load off of food and drink?" I nodded and joined him as he started to walk out the door.

We arrived at the address Todd gave us. It was in a kind of field area that was surrounded by trees and had a lake near by. People walked around in costumes, holding cheap beer in their hands, eating food, standing around a bonfire, and either walking to the lake.
"Hey Addy!" I yelled as I ran toward her, dragging Ike with me by his wrist. "Hey guys! I'm actually surprised you showed up since you guys don't like being around people."
"Yeah you co-could thank H-Hunter for that." Ike stuttered, was he nervous? "Ike if you want something the drinks are over there," she pointed to an area were half the people were at. Ike nodded and looked at me, "Want something?"
"Pepsi or anything that isn't beer." He blushed and nodded, but he didn't leave. He looked down at his arms and stared till I did to, I was still holding his hand..."S-Sorry!" I let go and Ike left.
"So this is the plan for you and Ike!"
"Wait what?!"
"Remember I said I'm going to help you guys get together, okay before you kill me I asked someone to help."
"Wait you told someone I like Ike?!" She shook her head and did sort of a jazz hands thing. "Nononono, I told Todd I wanted to embrace you guys so I told him these things from his point of view wouldn't help you, but for yours it will." I stood there staring at her, mouth wide open. "See I'm smart enough to plan this all out!" She smiled and put her hand on my shoulder. "I'm going to help you get laid tonight!"
"W-w-what no! Nothing like that!" I smacked her hand off my shoulder and blushed feriursly. "Oh hi Ike!" She pushed passed me and waved at him. "Here's your not beer." Ike handed me a can of Pepsi and smiled. "Soooo" Addy leaned on Ike, "I heard they're doing a haunted house thing near the lake, you should totally go with Hunter!" Oh god was this her dumbass plan? "Yeah...that kinda sounds fun, right Hunter?" I wanted to say no. I should of said no, but I said yes....just for Ike I'm going to get over my fear. "Okay so... When do you want to go?" He asked looking at me as Addy winked and walked away. "R-right now?" He nodded and grabbed my sleeve, dragged me to the lake area.

"Y-you sure you w-wanna go?" The hunted house was a huge corn field that was hidden from the rest of the party. "It's going to be fine Hunter... I p-promise!" I nodded and we moved up in line, we're next. I stood there looking around, looking at the different people. Mainly looking for Addy's purple and blue hair.  What is she- "Next in line please!"  Deeeep breaths buddy, you'll be fine. "You ready Hunter?" I nodded and Ike started to lead the way. "So how have you been?" Ike looked behind me, as he pushed passed corn leaves that would some point hit us in the face. "W-what do you mean, we live together?" He shrugged and kept moving. "Just trying to start a conversation till we get- Gah!"
"W-wha- OHGODNO!" I screamed at the most crappiest jump scare ever, and clung to Ike. I aspected Ike to laugh his ass off at me doing that, but he didn't really do that....well...he laughed and pulled me next to him, having his arm around my shoulder.  Which is odd, since he usually teases me and also he's taller so I'm kinda his  arm rest. "You okay?" Ike asked me, as we continued to walk through the field. "I m-might not like the d-dark..."  I heard a small chuckle and the sound of  corn being trampled. Addy. "Is that why you didn't like the movie..?" I nodded, and he stopped moving, which also made me stop as well. "Why did you want to go in the maze, you know spooky, dark, jumpscares?" I shrugged and kicked the rocks that were at my feet. "Wanted you to be happy..." Ike sighed and grabbed my hand, I blushed. "Well if you're s-scared you can hold my hand." 
  We kept walking, and I kept getting scared thanks a lot Addy and Todd. But finally we made our way out, still holding hands. "I-if you want you can l-let go.." Ike looked down at our hands. I didn't want to let go, his hand was kinda soft and weird feeling.  I shrugged as usual, "I guess.." He let go and I think he blushed or something. "Heeey gu*hick*ys!" Todd waddled over with Addy and Dave. "Haave fun in the maze?" He laughed and leaned on Dave, who simply brushed him off him.  "Yeah.." Ike answered for us, clearly not comfortable with what was going on. "Hunter and I got scared but it wasn't that bad- " "You guys were holding hands, how scared were you?" Dave, please shut up. "We were scared and it was dark, so we held hands so it would be easier to make our way out." Ike please you don't have to talk we can walk away. "Or maybe you're guys are gay!" I looked at Ike and his face was beet red, okay time for me to step in.
"Dave shut up you freaking homophob! We aren't gay and if we were it's not a crime!"
"You are gay don't you even hide it! People like you shouldn't even be a thing and you can all just die!" I clutched my fists and stepped closer to him. "We don't need people like you, just shut your stupid ass mouth and leave! No one wants you here!" And then everything went black..
