Marauders Spooktober Day 16: Trick or Treat
@deadkaywizard Jegulus, little Harry Words: 528
“Trick or treat!” Regulus opens the door to the cutest pumpkin ever. “Hello there little pumpkin” The little boy beams up at him.
“Hi im harry” Regulus chuckles. Harry smiles at him showing a gap between his teeth. “Hello Harry, my name is Regulus” Harry holds open his little white bag that looks like a ghost and says: “Trick or treat mister Regulus” Regulus holds down the bucket he held under his right arm while opening the door.
"Take what you want" Regulus smiles at him. Harry comes up to his tippy toes and looks into the bucket, searching for something. His little hand ruffles through bonbons and gummies and chocolate. When he found what he wanted he triumphantly held it in the air and showed it to Regulus.
"Thats my favorite" he smiles brightly and bows a little. "Thank you mister Regulus" Regulus straightens himself again putting the bucket back on his dresser. "It was my pleasure little Pumpkin" Regulus bowed right back and heard Harry giggle.
Harry skipped back down the stairs in front of his door and Regulus shut it behind him smiling to himself. Some kids really are cute. After another 4 door chingles and endless groups of kids later, Regulus bucket is almost empty.
He tells him hes only opening one more door and then hes done. As if summoning the door bell rings and with a sigh Regulus gets up and opens the door. Before him again stand a little pumpkin.
"Hi mister Regulus" Harry waves strongly with his hands and beams up at him. "Hello Harry, what brings you back here." Regulus crouches down to be eye to eye with the little boy. At this Harry shyly took a step back.
"I was wondering if i could get a treat for my dad too?" Regulus smiles warmly and nods. "Of course let me get the bucket and then…" But before Regulus can step back and grab it, a little hand wraps around his writs and pulls him out his house down to the street.
"HE SAID YES!" Harry screams at someone, confusing Regulus even more. "i said yes to what?" Regulus quickly looks around and comes face to face with a very very attractive ghost. Harry confusingly looks up at him. "You said yes to my dad?"
Regulus looks down at him and breaks into giggles. He points to himself trying to get words out through his breathless laughter. "Im… Im the… Treat?" Regulus cant stop laughing and has to brace himself on his knees. After a minute or two he stops and takes a deep breath. He straightens himself again and looks the Ghost into his eyes.
"Hi, Im Regulus and i am your treat" He holds out his hand and waits for the man to shake his hand. Perplexed Harrys dad takes his hand and says: "Im James and i had nothing to do with this trick but ill take it."
They smile at each other, Harry alternating looking at each of them standing proud. Their spell gets broken by the sound of a door shutting behind him, but right now Regulus has it little in him to care.
