Author's Note: Hey guys! I know I said I wouldn't be writing anymore, but because Halloween is coming, and to honor season 3, I had this idea for a Raura halloween story. This will be a oneshot in three parts, I may even add the second part in tonight if Im not too busy. I got this idea when hearing an interview the cast did about halloween that Calum and Ross were terrified of horror movies, and all the Raura that has been going on, why not make a cute raura fic. You'll see numbers in there too, there are just little authors notes at the bottom. So please enjoy!
Italics=thoughts :)
Halloween was fast approaching, and it was one of Laura Marano's favorite holidays, I mean, who doesn't like dressing up, scaring the pants off of your friends, and she was the Ambassador for UNICEF, hello!.
Her most favorite person to scare though is her co-star and best friend Ross Lynch, just because it is so easy and he's a huge scaredy-cat, though she's never actually scared him bad enough that he lost his pants. Not that she wanted to see him without his pants…
ok, maybe she does, but don't tell him that because he will just get a big head about it. Ross was always teasing her about that sort of thing, her possibly having a crush on him, and she would tease him right back, it was kind of their thing. Although, their siblings and best friends Raini and Calum believe the reason the two tease each other is because they secretly really like the other.
Both her and Ross deny this, shrugging it off, however, working alongside that Ross Shor Lynch boy for three years now, she admits to having a soft spot for him, but only to herself.
She always had wondered if he had one for her. Back on topic, Ross, aside from Calum was terrified of horror movies(1). Despite claiming to be the "brave" and "macho" guys they pretended to be, it was a known fact to everyone that neither boy could watch a horror movie without screaming like a little girl. And with Halloween just around the corner, it gave Laura the perfect opportunity.
*6:00 AM *
A bright smile spread across Laura's face as she made her way onto set, greeting people good morning as they walked by her, as per her usual, no one suspecting anything out of the ordinary from her. Finally, she spotted her latina best friend and co-worker Raini at the Craft Services table, and hurried over, her smile widening as she came to stop beside her friend picking at the muffins.
Raini Rodriguez was like another sister to Laura, having worked with her for so long, they were pretty close, and anytime either had an opportunity to prank, they were each other's partner in crime too. Part of the reason she loved Raini. "Hey Laura" Raini greeted her turning towards her with a chocolate chip muffin in her hand, already biting into it.
"Hey Raini!" she tried to greet as nonchalantly as possible but the thought of her plan was just too great. At the mere sight of the smile spread across the younger girl's face, a similar smile began to form on Raini's, another reason why she loved Raini, she always knew what she was thinking. "I know that smile, you want to scare Ross and Calum" she said excitedly, she too also loved scaring the boys in their foursome, "Whatcha got girly?" she asked. "Halloween is coming up. You want to make Ross and Calum squirm?" she responded.
*5:38 PM*
It was the end of one of their rehearsal days, the four friends were in Ross's dressing room as always; the blonde was on the couch, mindlessly strumming at the guitar that he always kept in there, Laura was sitting on the floor at his feet, pretending to be looking at something on her iPad. Raini and Calum were lounging on the couch across from them , Pixie between them, playing with a toy Calum was tugging, while Raini giggled. It was Laura that broke the silence.
"Hey. Halloween is coming soon, you guys want to watch a horror movie this weekend?" Laura questioned, trying to be discrete as she glanced between Ross and Calum as they seemed to have gone stiff. It was Ross whom regained his cool first."Yeah, sure. I'm up for anything" he said, though both Raini and Laura could both tell that he was still apprehensive as he continued to strum his guitar.
Raini scoffed at his words, "You?. Riker said you couldn't even make it through the Tower of Terror at Disney Land last year" she said(2), noticing how Ross's face suddenly flushed red. Damn, he said he wouldn't tell them!, Ross cursed, taking mental note to hurt his brother later. He tried to shrug it off, "I can handle anything" hoping to hide his discomfort with a smile.
Laura and Raini laughed, only Calum caught the dark look in their faces as they discretely glanced at each other, "Fine, Mr. Macho" Laura challenged, turning on her spot on the floor to face the blonde completely."How about we do it tonight?" she said "We'll do like a sleepover thing, and watch movies but one has to be a horror movie, in the dark, just the four of us" she continued. Ross's eyes narrowed as he noticed a sparkle in her eye, she was enjoying this way too much, and he wasn't going to let her have the satisfaction.
Ross surprised them all as he suddenly leaned forward towards the small girl, stopping a mere few feet away from her. Raini and Calum watched curiously as the smirk slipped from Laura's face, however she seemed to recover quickly. "Great, how about we have it at my house" Ross offered, eyes never leaving Laura's, the two suddenly locked in silent confrontation, neither wanting to back down.
The teasing smile returned to her face, her earlier challenge now disappeared from her face, and her calming, pleasant demeanor returned, catching the other three off guard. Ross began to lean away from her.
"Sounds great" she said nonchalantly, something about the way she said it made Ross terribly uneasy, but as they continued to lock eyes, Laura seemed to remain her usual self, which now scared the blonde boy. "I'll just call Mom then and see if it's ok" he said, also sounding calm and cool as he picked his iPhone up out of his pocket, finally taking his eyes off of Laura as he dialed his house phone.
The other three friends watched patiently as they listened to the one sided conversation between mother and son, Ross nodding and agree every so often. Somewhere in the middle of the conversation, Laura and Raini exchanged a look between them; Calum was the one to feel very uneasy now, quickly exchanging a look with Ross while he was on the phone.
The attention was brought back to the blonde as he bid his mother goodbye, hanging up and turned back to his waiting friends. "She says it's fine as long as we don't make a mess or too rowdy. Everyone's going to be gone that night, but she said they shouldn't be late" he said, keeping his cool in front of Laura and Raini, but once the girls were excitedly squealing, Ross and Calum turned to each other nervously.
"Great, so we'll be by your house around eight?" Laura asked, bringing the attention back to her, turned his attention back to her, now noticing the excitement shining in her big brown eyes.You can't let her down, Ross. Man up!. Forcing a smile, he nodded in agreement, "Yeah, that'd be great", noticing how her smile only spread wider across her face. With a squeak, Laura jumped to her feet, "Great. Raini and I will bring the snacks, you guys make sure we have enough blankets and pillows" she said, already starting for the door, Raini following.
"Great! I can bring my fuzzy blanket!" Calum spoke for the first time, causing the other three to suddenly stop and stare strangely at their friend. Noticing their questioning stares, the red head shrugged, "What?. It's a really fuzzy blanket. All the way from my hometown" he said, a proud smile spread across his other three shook their heads. "We'll see you guys later, we have to go grab our stuff" Raini stated as her and Laura began for the door again. Ross and Calum offered the girls a smile as they bid them goodbye.
Finally out of sight, Ross blew out a breathe he didn't even realize he was holding, that queasy feeling suddenly taking over his body. Like Raini and Laura, the two boys were practically like bros, they basically were like a real life Austin and Dez, so Calum knew from the moment Laura suggested the horror movie, the boys were in trouble.
They had already surrendered to the fact that they could never win an argument against either Laura or Raini(3). Feeling his bro's discomfort, Calum carefully scooped up Pixie, and carried her over to where Ross sat motionless on the couch. Dropping beside his friend, Calum set down Pixie, "This is going to be a looooooooong night" he said, a look of fear mirroring Ross's in his own eyes.
Author's Note: Hey, so that's all for now. Like? Dislike? Thoughts? please no flames.
(1).It was said in an interview that Ross and Calum are afraid of horror movies and that they have Laura and Raini watch it with them
(2).I don't know if this is true, but its true for the story. I don't own DisneyLand.
(3).Again, probably not true, but just for the story. Raura and Caini!
