At the end of it, Jack got everyone's attention.

"Alright, everyone. Assume the positions," Jack told them and they all left.

"Jack, what's going on?" Y/N asked.

"I want you to see what it's like around here as soon as Halloween comes. Then we go do our jobs. And as soon as the holiday is done, we will go on a romantic honeymoon," he answered.

She smiled and said, "I look forward to it all."

They kissed for a minute until they heard a howl.

"That means they're ready," Jack informed.

"Then let's go," Y/N told him.

They went where it all started and they traveled through the whole town as the monsters sang. Then when Jack had to get ready for the last part, she was a little confused until she saw what happened.

"Boys and girls of every age
Wouldn't you like to see something strange?

Come with us and you will see
This our town of Halloween

This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Pumpkins scream in the dead of night

This is Halloween, everybody make a scene
Trick or treat till the neighbors gonna die of fright
It's our town, everybody scream
In this town of Halloween

I am the one hiding under your bed
Teeth ground sharp and eyes glowing red

I am the one hiding under your stairs
Fingers like snakes and spiders in my hair

This is Halloween, this is Halloween, Halloween! Halloween! Halloween! Halloween!

In this town we call home
Everyone hail to the pumpkin song

In this town, don't we love it now?
Everybody's waiting for the next surprise

'Round that corner, man hiding in the trash can
Something's waiting now to pounce, and how you'll scream!

This is Halloween
Red 'n' black, slimy green
Aren't you scared?
Well, that's just fine

Say it once, say it twice
Take a chance and roll the dice
Ride with the moon in the dead of night

Everybody scream, everybody scream

In our town of Halloween

I am the clown with the tear-away face
Here in a flash and gone without a trace

I am the 'who' when you call, 'Who's there?'
I am the wind blowing through your hair

I am the shadow on the moon at night
Filling your dreams to the brim with fright

This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Halloween! Halloween! Halloween! Halloween!
Halloween! Halloween!

Tender lumplings everywhere
Life's no fun without a good scare

That's our job, but we're not mean
In our town of Halloween

In this town
Don't we love it now?

Everybody's waiting for the next surprise
Skeleton Jack might catch you in the back
And scream like a banshee
Make you jump out of your skin
This is Halloween, everybody scream
Won't ya please make way for a very special guy

Our man jack is King of the Pumpkin patch
Everyone hail to the Pumpkin King, now!

This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Halloween! Halloween! Halloween! Halloween!

In this town we call home
Everyone hail to the pumpkin song

La la-la la, Halloween! Halloween!" [Repeat]

Y/N enjoyed every minute of it. Then when Jack fully stepped out of the well, he held out a hand to her, which she accepted. He gently pulled her to his chest and they held each other.

"I love you, Y/N," he told her.

"And I you," she responded.

They kissed, making the monsters cheer. When they parted, Y/N then whispered something to Jack, who nodded. They got on top of the well and quieted them all down.

"Now, before we go, we need Sally and Ryan up here," Jack requested.

They went up there, slightly confused.

"Sally and I made a deal about something with our men. If one us told our man this one thing, the other needs to say it to their man," Y/N explained.

Sally immediately started blushing as she faced Ryan. She took a deep breath.

"Ryan, the deal was whoever said 'I love you' to their lover first, the other would do it to their lover after them," she explained.

"And do you love me?" he asked.

"Yes, I do love you," Sally answered.

"Well, that's great. Because I love you too. And I want to know if you'll marry me," Ryan said as he pulled out a ring.

(A/N Ring.)

Everyone gasped in excitement and Sally started tearing up as he got down on one knee

Everyone gasped in excitement and Sally started tearing up as he got down on one knee.

"So what do you say?" Ryan asked.

"Yes," Sally answered.

He put the ring on her finger and they kissed, making everyone cheer. Then the Pumpkin King and Queen kissed as well and they all knew that this was the best Halloween ever.
