3/3 of the halloween bash.

a/n: I love the best-friends-to-lovers trope, don't @ me.

a.k.a idiots to lovers

~

sicheng isn't suicidal – but at times like these he's sure as hell he wishes to be dead.

when ten suddenly greets him with a warm beam and lucas in tow (really, when those two are together you should expect some shenanigans to happen) with some hideous-looking costumes in hand. it's already october, sicheng notices (it's hard not to when yangyang decorated the house with lots of fake pumpkins, in various sizes), but he doesn't expect his best-friends-slash-sworn-family would be in the halloween mood this quick.

when he examines them up-close, the costumes are actually animal ones. there's a cat, a bear, a sheep, a wolf (sicheng's not sure, actually, kinda looks like a weird hybrid of a dog and a horse), a dinosaur, a donkey and a chick.

" what are these ?" sicheng asks, fixing his bag strap. he has just finished his class – one he shares with his crush – and his beloved brothers already embarrass him by showing up with these costumes. his classmates walk past him and shoot him a weird look, and he wants to scream I swear I'm not a furry.

" these, my dear sicheng, are our halloween costumes for the party !" ten announces. lucas nods, looking as enthusiastic as the oldest is. sicheng, however, grimaces. " aren't they cute ?"

" define cute. these are ugly and there's no way in hell I'm gonna wear this ." sicheng scrunches his nose up in distaste. he scans the chick one in lucas's hands, and for a second it doesn't look that bad, but still. he's not gonna wear this.

lucas takes full offense at his words, gasping, " watch your mouth, ge! these are tailored with love and passion and made of quality cotton, you know? and they're adorable, mind you ."

before sicheng can open his mouth, ten shoves the chick onesie to him. why is he not surprised? they always associate him with chicks for whatever reason.

the thing is, every students are allowed to go to the annual party their college always hold on every halloween, except for haechan, for reasons unbeknownst to sicheng (something about sleeping with the pastor's son, mark lee? but he doesn't give a fuck), which means his crush will be there, too. and he's not gonna go to the party in this costume in front of his crush.

worst thing worst, literally no one wears such costumes to the party; it'll vary from sexy outfits to weird ones but nothing this... childish. sicheng thinks the costumes will be pretty neat for middle schoolers.

" ten-ge, I don't wanna wear this !" he pleas, but to no result. ten's glare screams finality.

" nu uh. we always match every halloween and this time isn't an exception. you're gonna wear that costume, like it or not ." he says, crossing his arms. lucas nods again, and sicheng hates him for being ten's loyal yessir-and-nossir.

" come on, ge, it'll be fun ," lucas nudges him, smiling so brightly, and sicheng wants to punch him in the face. of course it's fun for him. he's wong yukhei, he can wear a trash-bag and people will still worship him. " you're the chick, it's not bad, kunhang's the donkey ."

ten snorts. " that's for cheating on family game night ."

lucas and sicheng shudder in unison. the mention of their family game night brings war flashbacks. no session ever ended peacefully so far, especially last week, when ten literally flipped the table because kunhang gave him a +8 card and kun had to end it before xiaojun could kill yangyang for playing tricks.
