Levi's POV

Halloween night, and here we are all gathered in the game room with popcorn and chips decorating the table in front of everyone. Sasha of course hogging a bowl each to herself and Connie, who is still just slightly getting away with a hiss or a slight hand slap. Armin and Jean are all cuddly on the floor a bowl of candy corn between them giggling slightly at what each other said. Mikasa and Annie both being ice queens huddle together sharing a bowl of candy not really talking with anyone else, Mikasa casting glances over at Eren ever so often. Reiner and Bertolt opted to skip out on the "fun" that was happening tonight, apparently Bertolt hated scary movies. You would think with he wouldn't be scared of anything with his height he had, but he was such a softy when it came to this type of stuff. Then there was Eren and I sharing the love seat, poor brat still haven't gotten over the flu he caught, but was so hard head that he wouldn't listen to anyone saying that they would save the scary movies for another night. He sat there bundled in two blankets with a box of tissues next to him, the brat also had hot tea sitting next to for his sore throat.

"Hey Levi," Eren's voice was scratchy still, "What is the first movie again?" He asked his eyes glowed a little thinking about the movies that was going to be played tonight, apparently he had a love for horror movies. I would have put the brat in the category as Drama or even just plane action, but not horror.

"I think they said the first movie was Annabelle," I said trying to remember what the other brats were arguing to which was the best horror movie to start with. In all honesty I didn't want to be here to watch these stupid shows, but I didn't want to leave Eren here alone making himself suffer trying to stay up through the movies.

Eren let out a sigh, "that isn't even a good horror movies, in all honesty no movies are as good as the older ones. I would love to sit down and watch Pet Semetery or even Scream they might be stupid, but they are the best movies." I started at him blinking, I have no idea what he was talking about, I hated movies, but he spoke about them with such passion that made his eyes light up, that I would watch them, just so I could watch them sparkle.

"Ohh Jaeger! Those are horrible movies," Jean said looking over his shoulder at us, "You have such a strange taste in horror movies. The best horror movie is Silent of the Lambs!"

Eren just snorted at him, "You know some people count that as a drama instead of horror right horseface?" Jean just narrowed his eyes at the nickname Eren had gave him, "Alright miss smarted pants just don't scream or jump through the movie."

Eren chuckled at that, "Yeah like that will happen, asked Armin to hold you instead of me this time," Jean's and Armin's faces went bright red at what Eren said both stumbling over each other denying what Eren had said.

"Alright ladies your both pretty, but we are about to start the movie," Mikasa said, as she got up to put the movie in. The lights were turned off and the movie began.

Eren's POV

Annabelle as was I said a movie that was so predictable, of course Jean screamed and clung to Armin through most of the movie Armin was white as a ghost when it was over. Mikasa and Annie chuckled at the worst parts possible, and whispered their own commentary to the movie. At one point Sasha and Connie's chips flew all over the place when the first jump scare popped, screaming and ducking behind the couch for cover. Levi was stoned face throughout the movie not a twitch of his lips not a jump in his muscles either, he was un-phased through the whole thing. Then there was me, of course I jumped from time to time that is the whole reasons I watch these things I love the scare that comes from these movies, and the reminder there are worse things in these worlds than that of what I have faced. Of my own demons that hunt my everyday life.

"Okay who chose the movie?" I asked looking around at everyone seeing who chose the first movie and their bad taste. Armin raised his hand, ohh of course the little mushroom chose this movie.

"I did, one of the kids back in a house told me it was good, so when I got some money I bought it," Armin mumbled still a little shaken from the movie.

"It was a good movie," Jean said, coming to aid, "don't let Eren say get to you, even he jumped during the movie."

"It's my turn to put a movie in!" Sasha said rushing towards the DVD player to pop her own movie in.

"What did you choose this time Sasha," Connie asked filling their bowl back up with ammo to have rain down us once again. This is going to be a bitch to clean up after all is said and done.

"Oculus!" She said as she flopped back down with Connie, "Now give me my damn bowl back." I just sighed and got comfy for the next movie, maybe a little too comfy.

Levi's POV

By the end of the Sasha's movie I had an even bigger headache and regretted my choice in joining them in this Halloween spook fest as they called it. The movie was so confusing I didn't know who was dead or who was a live, who was lying or who was telling the truth. I was just about to get up in the middle of the movie and leave when I felt Eren's head on my shoulder, at first I was going to laugh at him for getting scared at this movie, and hiding his face in my shoulder. But when I looked down I saw that he had fallen asleep instead. He was still recovering from the flu, and I was a little surprised that he made it this far into the night of fright.

So when the movie ended and everyone was about to start talking I hushed and nodded to Eren. Of course this made everyone a little sad to see that his horror movie night was cut short, but also happy that he was going to get a full nights rest instead of pushing himself to stay up. I picked him up bridal style a little startled to see how light he was and carried him back to the room, his face distorted just a moment and he mumbled in his sleep, "No take me back…. I... Haven't…" I felt my lips twitch upward into a smile at his sleep talking telling me to take him back. I put him into his bed and watched him as he snuggled under all the covers and listened as his breathing evened back out.

I felt my chest fluttered at the sight of him, he was so cute and not a brat while he was sleep, I just wished I had the balls to tell him while he was wake that. I gave him a quick peak on his forehead and whispered a goodnight all the while feeling my face light up like a Jack-O-Lantern through the whole process. I got into my own bed feeling the dreams of old hallows eve sneak into my head as I sank into sleep.
