Happy Halloween! I decided to put together a little Halloween chapter for you all! I hope you enjoy it and please leave any suggestions or ideas you may have!

A Nightmare on Portland Row

Lucy's POV

"George?" I asked while trying to keep myself calm. I was currently looking down at the empty bowl sitting on our porch that was completely full this morning. "What happened to all of the Halloween candy?"

"Sorry Luce, what was that?" George asked and turned towards me. He quickly wiped off the smudge of chocolate that was above his lip.

We've been decorating the house for at least three hours now and we were both getting sick of each other. Everyone has a limit when it comes to George. Well, maybe everyone except Flo.

I rolled my eyes and pointed at the now empty bowl.

"I got hungry," he shrugged.

"God! You are so irritating and inconsiderate, I swear!"

"Well it was your fault for leaving the candy with me. So really, it's all your fault!" He argued. "Now I'm going inside you grab the rest of the decorations. You're in charge of hanging the lights up while I'm gone. Just be careful on the ladder," he ordered and walked into the house.

"You know, I hunt ghosts for a living! I think I can handle climbing a ladder!" I yelled back at him even though I knew he couldn't hear me.

Although George and I were getting along with each other fine, we still had those moments where we couldn't stand each other. This was one of those moments.

As I started to climb the ladder, the perfect idea came to me. I smiled and climbed back down.

After I made sure that George couldn't see me, I pushed over the ladder. The ladder fell down with a crash.

I quickly ran over to the ladder and laid down next to it, hoping it looked like I fell.

I closed my eyes and laid perfectly still as I heard George open the door very fast.

"Lucy? Oh no, Lucy! Are you alright?" A very frantic George asked as he knelt next to me. I was trying very hard not to burst out laughing.

After a minute of George questioning and shaking me, I decided I couldn't take it anymore.

I shot up and yelled, "Boo!"

George made a noise that sounded like a dying cat and he fell backwards with a fright.

"Gotcha!" I laughed as I got up. Well, that was funnier then I thought it would be.

"Lucy! I thought you were dead!" George cried.

"Aw! Were you scared that I would come back as a ghost and haunt you?" I asked with a fake pout.

"No, I was more scared of what a living Lockwood would do to me!" George confessed as he wiped sweat off of his forehead.

Wow, I must've really given him a run for his money. I almost started to feel bad, until I remembered why I needed to get payback in the first place.

"Look I'm sorry, Let's just finish decorating so we can move on with our lives," I stated while I began finishing hanging up the cobwebs.

~two hours later~

"Can someone please remind me why we decided to do this again!" I asked while I clung to Lockwood's coat.

Lockwood, George, Holly, and I were currently making our way through a haunted house.

You would think that after the problem started, they would stop making haunted houses. Nope! Apparently, having fake ghosts that couldn't kill you made these types of things more appealing.

"Calm down, Lucy! They all fake!" Holly yelled from behind me.

We were all going single file down the creepy corridor. The order was Lockwood in front, then me, and Holly and George in the back.

"Don't tell me what to do!" I snapped back. I guess haunted houses made me more on edge than usual,

"It's alright Luce, I got you!" Lockwood winked at me, making my stomach flip.

I gave him my best smile as I tried to ignore his charming smile. I had to focus on not being scared by the dressed up characters that were trying to scare us.

Suddenly, I didn't know what made me more scared, being this close to Lockwood or the haunted house.

All of a sudden, I felt a hand grab me from my left side.

Instinctively, I turned towards my attacker and punched him right in the face. Which I remembered was against the rules.

"Ow! You shouldn't have done that!" He growled and came towards me as he pulled his arm back.

Lockwood then pushed me out of the way, and kneed the monster right where it hurts.

"Aw! Locklyle!" I heard Holly whisper to George. I rolled my eyes.

We were then escorted out of the house by the manager for not following the rules. We were Lockwood and Co, what did they expect!

As we were walking back to Portland Row for the night, I walked over to Lockwood, grabbed his hand and whispered, "Thanks for protecting me back there."

"Always," he replied with a smile.

We then walked home, hand in hand.
