Watching scary movies on Halloween is a tradition.
Well, at least that is what you continuously tell yourself as you set up your couch with extra blankets and pillows. Thank god you're an Ampora, hot, strong, and definitely not scared of a piece of fake cinema horror. You grin to yourself as you think about how perfect tonight is, Kankri is going to swing by with some junk food and extra candy and you both will hand out candy until nine, then you will sit on the couch to watch some horror movies until he gets scared and ends up on your lap and-
Yes, this plan is foolproof.
By seven-thirty, Kankri comes on over in his costume, oh, so that's what a red pimpernel is, wow, that's a lot of ruffles, whereas you are just a vampire, it goes well enough with your pale skin and hair.
At least ten children come by dressed as a princess from Frozen, four Iron Mans banged on your door, three witches, two Harry Potters (no matter what Kankri says, you didn't give them three times as much candy as the others, he lies), five different kinds of food, a little group of sailor scouts, and a toddler dressed as The Hulk who yelled 'HULK SMASH' instead of 'trick or treat'. After all of that and more, you ended up running out of candy and closed the door with the lights off.
Kankri was sitting on the couch and you just sprawled right across his lap, which made him shove you right onto the floor, scolding you for invading his personal space before he got up to make a few bags of popcorn while you set up the movie.
You both curl up and watch 'Cloverfield', which really isn't all that scary, it makes Kankri cry a bit and has a few jump-scares, but nothing that's really cuddle-worthy; then 'Friday The Thirteenth' is up next, which has you laughing more than really being scared, Kankri has to whack you to get you to shut up more than once; soon you put in 'The Grudge'. Now that's a movie that definitely provokes some screaming and cuddling, only not from Kankri. You have your face buried in him and have covered yourself entirely in the blankets. Kankri holds you with one arm and pauses the movie, gently trying to calm you down.
He has to turn on the lights and assure you multiple times that everything will be ok, but it doesn't help calm you down at all. Holy shit, you didn't think it would be that bad, you thought it would be just a shitty little 80's-graphics movie. He rubs your back and talks to you gently as you control your breathing and relax against him.
It takes you twenty minutes, but it's alright in the end, Kankri wipes your eyes and shows you cute videos on his phone until you deem yourself alright.
He then puts on 'The Nightmare Before Christmas' and you both cuddle close with the lights on. Somehow, the movie ends and you both are holding hands. Kankri's head on your shoulder and your cheek on his head, but you can't bother yourself to think about where this puts the both of you, so you tuck both of yourselves in and doze off happily, not worrying about anything because you have more important things to think about for the time being.
