Hi guys! Happy day before Halloween :) I'm really glad that I was able to get the first chapter up in time, I've been procrastinating just a little bit. Well, I hope you like it. Please review, constructive criticism is always welcome, and I'll try to get the second chapter up as soon as possible.


It's about two weeks before Halloween and I don't have a costume yet, so I've decided to go and get one before it's too late.

I parked my car out in front of the first Halloween store I could find and walked to the door.

"Come on, let's go in!"

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I'm with Prussia. He doesn't have a costume yet either so he wanted to go with me, he said that my costume should have his 'awesome approval.' That and I didn't want to go alone and be that guy trying to maneuver through the store without freaking out too much at the decorations.

He grabbed my hand and dragged me to the door. Once we walked in I freaked out because they had one of those moving lawn zombies, I fucking hate those, and of course Prussia thought it was so hilarious.

"Aww, what's wrong Romano? Are you scared?" he smirked.

"No! Now shut the fuck up so we can get our costumes and get out!"

I marched into the store with Prussia following behind, laughing his ass off.

"Don't worry," he said "the awesome me is here to protect any frightened Italians!"

"I wasn't scared!…It just surprised me!"

I began to browse through the multiple costumes. They had some pretty decent ones, but all of the women's looked like something France would make, what the fuck? How the hell were they supposed to be scary?!

After a while of looking I realized it was a bit too quiet. I looked around and couldn't find Prussia, that is until he suddenly popped out of the rack I was currently looking through.

I fell back on the floor. "WHAT THE FUCK?! WHY THE HELL DID YOU DO THAT?! YOU ALMOST GAVE ME A HEART ATTACK YOU BA-"

"Hey, Romano!" he interrupted "you should wear this!"

He shoved the bag in my face and I grabbed it to get a better look.

When I saw the costume I turned an even brighter shade of red than the pair of eyes that were watching me.

Inside of the bag was a blue and purple strapless dress that appeared to come down to my mid-thighs. It was very frilly and had two frilly elastic bands that go on the upper arms. The thing that bothered me the most was the glittery, blue, and purple wings attached to the back of the dress.

There was only one thing to say.

"Hell no!"

"Why not?"

"well, maybe because this is a women's costume!"

"What's wrong with that?"

"I AM A MAN!"

He took the bag back. "fine, you don't have to wear it…that is…" he smirked

"What?"

"That is, if you win a bet"

"…I'm listening" I saw a bit of mischief in his eyes. "If you win I'll be your butler for a day, but if I win you have to wear this costume and go with me to America's party."

That bastard, he had asked me to go to the party with him yesterday, but of course I said no. Last year I was dumb enough to go to the party. There were things popping out of the snack bowls and people coming up behind you with fake chainsaws, but worst of all, they locked me in a closet with some random person! I don't even know who it was because it was dark as hell and I was too busy pounding the door to hear what he was saying. Once they opened the door I ran out of the closet and didn't even bother to find out who I was in the closet with.

"What's the bet?" I asked.

"You and I are going to fright fest at six flags, if you get scared then I win, but if you don't then you win"

I thought for a moment. If I were to lose not only would I have to wear that stupid fairy costume, I'd also have to go to that fucker's party! However…

"Alright, it's a bet." I said, the temptation of having Prussia do whatever I say for an entire day, no matter how stupid or small, was too good to pass up.

He stuck his hand out to me and I took it, it was too late to go back now. It's alright though, fright fest isn't that bad.

Right?

Right…I hope…
