No One's POV

Izuku always had a love hate relationship with Halloween. As much as he loved the candy, the costumes and the spoopy atmosphere. The concept of opening strangers doors and being forced to talk to them always drove his anxiety off the wall. But this year would be different, because he had 2 secret weapons.

Skipper and Shinsou
Shinsou had arrived an hour before and was waiting on the couch. He had on an infamous cat costume Izuku had bought him as a joke. He and Izuku and devolved after the incident and became almost inseparable. Much like  Izuku and Skipper, who was splayed out on the rug, fast asleep.

After what seemed like forever, Izuku walked out in a broccoli costume, blushing madly. This costume was in retaliation for buying the cat one. Shinsou broke in a fit of laughter before getting up to greet him. " Hey, Greenie. Finally ready to go." He said slyly " Just, shush" " Okay, but you got yourself into this mess. I told you not to buy that cat costume." He said calmly. Izuku just glared at him before braking into a fit of laughter. What did I do to deserve him Izuku wondered. He slipped back into his room to grab his candy bucket and Skip's leash before strolling into the living room. Shinsou was standing there with a now wide awake Skipper, who was sporting his own angel costume ( because he is one).

The boys said their goodbyes, attacked the leash, and walked out the door. Izuku then proceeded to bolt down the steps of the complex with Skipper's leash in hand, like a child on Christmas. Shinsou just chuckled to himself before following him down. Children lined the sidewalks as they strolled down looking for the first house. Suddenly Izuku took off to a house, his eyes gleamed with childish joy. Shinsou could hardly believe this was the same scared, anxious little boy,  running up to a stranger's house. Maybe he was right.. maybe we were the thing we each needed..

Shinsou followed behind him, He wasn't in it for the candy like Izuku was but willing to come alongside. The door opened and the children surrounding them let out a chorus of " trick or treat"! Suddenly the glow in Izuku's eyes started to fade into the dark look Shinsou recognized all too well. He calmly placed his on his shoulder, snapping him attention from the situation to his soft gaze.

Izuku always loved his eyes. Despite them being sunken in from lack of sleep, they were a soothing purple that always managed to calm him. Skipper also had his cold, wet nose pressed firmly against his hand. The cloud of fear instantly faded and he gave a proud smile to show he was good. Izuku turned back and grabbed a handful of candies. He said his thank you and trotted down the steps off the porch, simultaneously inspecting his bucket to see what he got.

Just then Shinsou elbowed his side, and Izuku looked up. Partly to ready slap him until he saw what Shinsou was pointing at. Kacchan was walking down the sidewalk, opposite of where they were standing. Kirishima was beside him, talking about something he couldn't hear. Kacchan had on a werewolf costume while Kirishima had on a Devil one. Izuku laughed and smiled softly, he was glad Kacchan found happiness after every that happened.

The three continued after that, going from house to house until Skipper and Izuku looked too tired to continue. Around 10 pm they retreated back to the apartment. When they arrived all the lights were off and Inko was dead asleep. They flicked on the living room lamp light as Izuku dumped his collection of candy on the floor. After much bickering and trade deals, each boy walked away with a bit of sweets. Izuku tried to convince Shinsou to stay the night as he cleaned up his share of the candy but ultimately failed as Shinsou made a promise to be home by 11.

He walked Shinsou to the door and opened it for him. Shinsou gave him the best hug he could over the lumps on his costume. Izuku attempted to return it but failed as the costume restricted his arms. Shinsou just laughed and said his fairwells and goodnights. Izuku gingerly shut the door behind him, and retreated to his room. Skip was close behind. Izuku tore of the vegetable costume, flung it into the corner, slipped into an all night tee and sweats,put up Skip's collar and lastly took off the doggo's costume.

" this was a good night" Izuku muttered to himself as he drifted of to sleep, Skipper curled up at his feet.
