As they entered the Creature House after returning from a delicious meal at the restaurant Ze had suggested, James had suggested watching another couple of bad horror movies tonight after everyone had been done with their homework.
After said school work was done for everyone and him taking off his beanie and pulling his tail out from his sweatpants, they all made their way downstairs with snacks to enjoy while the laughed at the terrible acted out scenes that would flash by the screen. They sat down in the row of leather recliners as James put in a movie.
After the first couple of credits presenting the movie’s most known actors, James decided to announce important information he probably should have revealed before hand
“By the way, this is an actual horror movie, not a shitty one.”
Everyone shrugged, not really caring much about the sudden announcement, except for him. He gripped the arm rests tightly, making the leather squeak slightly. He was never really comfortable with purposely getting scared, probably because of his past traumatic experiences.
He took deep breaths, trying to remind himself that it was only a movie and that no ghost or demon would pop out the screen or from under his bed during the night. He extended out a shaking hand to the popcorn bowl on Eddie’s lap, who just happened to be the in the seat right next to his.
He grabbed a handful and slowly started eating it, taking one popped corn piece at a time from his closed hand to his mouth, chewing slowly as his heart ponded against his ribcage with edginess.
He gulped loudly as the movie’s title flashed in dark and gloomy letters, the name alone not sounding much more reassuring.
During the entire film, he had been trying his best not to jump at the smallest sounds, but failed each time. He literally jumped and squeaked at every jump scare there was, the high pitched sound being visibly distinguished amongst the ‘manly yells’ of the other Creatures.
As the screen faded to darkness, leaving the ending at a terrifying conclusion that only hinted the continued roaming of whatever creature was lurking in the dark during the film to this day, the lights were turned on to reveal an Aleks who looked scared out of his mind. He had stayed in the same position, clenching both arm rests as hard as he could, hair and fur scruffy and eyes widened in a visibly paranoid manner as he started blankly at the screen.
“You okay, Aleks?” Dan asked with a chuckle, stretching his arms.
He shook his head, snapping out of his fearful thoughts and nodded vigorously as he remembered the question, letting go of the
“Uh, yeah. Yeah, I’m fine, totally fine. Why would you think I’m not? Because the movie scared the shit out of me?” He scoffed before continuing, “Who said that?”
All the Creatures turned to him, some eying him worriedly and others confusedly. Only then had he noticed the absence of the couple in his group of friends.
He looked around, seeing no sign of any of the two, leaving his thoughts to immediately travel to worst case scenarios.
“Uh, guys? Where are James and Seamus?” he asked, hoping one of them would know where they had gone to.
Unfortunately, the five other Creatures, which included Ze and Sp00n who had come to enjoy the movie too, looked taken aback by the sudden remark as they looked around, calling out their names.
After a few seconds, he felt something breathe harshly on his neck, causing him to intake a sharp breath of air as his grip in the leather tightened once more.
“E-Eddie,” he tried squeaking out.
He suddenly felt a hand cover his nose and mouth suddenly, cutting off his links to air. His eyes widened as he yelled Eddie’s name once again, this time muffled by the hand.
The guys turned to him and started laughing, tears brimming their eyes in laughter as their face reddened for the lack of oxygen laughing was keeping from them. The hand removed itself his face and he turned around to see James and Seamus cackling, each one of their hands gripping his recliner to keep from falling to the ground with laughter.
It took him a while to process the situation, but once he did his amusement was brought down even lower that it was previously as he crossed his arms and glared at each of the doubled over bodies of the sniggering YouTubers.
“O-Oh my fucking God, d-did you hear how he squeaked Sly’s name?” James questioned between his gasps for air.
A blush made its way to his face as he glared at the floor embarrassedly without a word, letting his friends have their fun. Once their laughing had died down and the only thing echoing in the large room was Eddie’s short giggles, he felt free to voice his opinion on the prank.
“Like I said before, you guys are all fucking dicks,” he muttered, cheeks still the lightest shade of pink from James’ stuttered out comment.
“I bet on Jordan’s head that Sly thought that squeak was the cutest thing ever,” Seamus said with a smirk.
“Hey, bet your own body parts, man!” Koots retorted.
“You probably would’ve kept your goddamn head, Hordan; just look at Sly right now.”
He looked to see what James was talking about and immediately noticed Eddie’s red cheeks glistening obviously through his tan skin, causing his own blush to flash back again once more as he understood the meaning of Eddie’s as well as his tail to wag rapidly.
“See? They’re red as fucking tomatoes!”
“Hey, your tail wags? That’s so awesome!” Ze complimented.
“More like adorable as fuck,” he heard Eddie mumble quietly as he looked up at him.
He shyly looked away silently as everyone observed his content tail moving back and forth repeatedly, to which he was now begging to stop.
“Okay, guys, it’s late, we need to head to bed,” Jordan announced.
He thanked Kootra mentally as all of them got up and marched up the spiral staircase. After doing his usual before bed routine, he rapidly went to his bed and contently jumped on it and wrapped himself in all the comfortable blankets. His heart fluttered as he recalled the previous events, more specifically the fact that Eddie thought he was cute, making the corners of his mouth twitch into a content smile before slowly drifting into unconsciousness.
