A/N: While I tend not to do anything for All Hallows' Eve, it's still a widely accepted holiday, so I couldn't pass up the chance. Holidays are shiny things, after all. But seriously, this is almost an actual drabble. I pat myself on the back.
Disclaimer: I only own Scoop. I might hate puns in general, but hey. They can be amusing when subtle.
"That's what I thought, but Riku said it was going to be later."
"You can check the bulletin if you do not believe me."
"No, no, that's okay. You're probably right. Riku doesn't do so well with dates."
"As in timewise, or with Niwa?"
"Ha! Meanie!"
"I try."
"You do a great j—"
"BOO!" Hiwatari-kun and Harada-san's conversation was cut off by the shout of a misshapen figure which jumped out in front of them. The first cry of horror came from the startled Harada-san.
The second came from Saehara-kun.
Kneeling in front of the remains of his jack-o-lantern, Saehara-kun lifted the split face from the ground, exclaiming, "Why did you do that? Just look at Scoop!"
Hiwatari-kun lowered his fist and carefully flicked the orange and white from his knuckles. "You surprised me."
Harada-san, her hand clapped over her heart, regained her presence of mind enough to demand, "Saehara, why on earth did you do that? You almost knocked us over!"
"It was just a joke," Saehara-kun muttered, dropping the pumpkin he held back to the ground. "I carved it last night and it looked amazing, so I brought it to show everyone. And then Hiwatari-kun smashed it!"
"If you had merely shown me in a rational manner, you would still possess a whole pumpkin."
Harada-san cut off Saehara-kun's whine, saying firmly, "Just be glad it wasn't your head, because that's what I'll be punching if you don't keep quiet."
With that, the two classmates left Saehara-kun to arrange the funeral.
