Halloween Eustace fluff
The sun was setting as you and the crew went into town, the street filled with bright colors of orange contrasting with colors of black and mixed with crowds with colors of the rainbow.
Everyone was going around giving and/or receiving candy, running around in their costumes screaming, “Trick or Treat!”, and those who are standing, waiting for the time to reunite with their deceased loved ones.
You smiled, looking at your crew who accompanied you, you saw that they were also wearing costumes. Everyone looked amazing in them but what really caught your eye is how… good-looking Eustace is in his costume next to you.
Wearing attire that would resemble what vampires wear, he had on a long black cloak, the inside of the cloak filled with a deep blood red, matching with his suit as well, a dark black with red on the inside of the fold of his sleeves.
However, the back of his top suit exposed his back, making him more ravishing, and to finish it off, strapped around his waist and thigh is where his weapon is held, decorated with red, gold, and mixes of brown.
You stared in awe and said, “Wow, you look so hot in that.”, not realizing what you said, you continued looking into him. He saw you looking at him and gave a small chuckle, “Well, I say that you look adorable in your costume, Danchou.”
The way he said ‘Danchou’ snapped you back into reality, immediately blushing as you placed your hands over your face and whined a little bit. ‘The way he says it is so cool like why is he so perfect. Ahhhhh.’, you mentally screamed as you tried to recollect yourself.
After a few seconds of panicking over his beauty, you gave a sharp sigh and immediately went into a battle pose, holding your staff, you said with the most playful smile, “Careful Eustace, you might get cursed by a witch. Woooooh.”
You moved your fingers around, pretending to be a scary witch and turned to him, going up to him. What you didn’t know is that he jumped away from you the second you turned.
“Wooooo- What the-!”, you saw that Eustace wasn’t in front of you and turned around to see nothing. You turned again and saw that he was walking ahead, “Eustace! Get back here!”, you yelled at him.
“Is he trying to test me?”, you huffed in playful annoyance. “Ugh, I’m too lazy to go after him. Uh, I mean, it’s my time to relax. I don’t want to go around chasing someone… I know!”
You cleared your throat and yelled in the most exaggerated tone, “Aww, what a cute puppy!”, hoping that it would catch Eustace’s attention. The man absolutely adores dogs and you knew that.
Within a few seconds, you saw Eustace practically appear out of thin air, his eyes lit up and ears fluttered ever so slightly. You could practically see a tail wagging excitedly, but you started to feel a bit bad that it was a trick.
You kicked your foot around slightly before saying, “Haha, I’m sorry Eustace. It was a-” “I know.”, Eustace smiled slightly, he came up to you and gave you a hug.
“But you’re wrong. I do see a puppy.”, he said to you in a whispery tone. Confused, you slightly separate yourself from him in order to look at his face.
He gave a smile and said, “My puppy is right here with me.” He gave a small pat on your head and chuckled a bit.
Your face starts to feel warm, flushed with embarrassment, you dug your face into his chest.
He chuckles some more and you could feel the vibrations of his voice, you also heard how rapidly his heart was beating.
“E- Eustace… Do you like me?”, you stuttered nervously, looking at him in the eye as you felt your heart beat faster than before, feeling it in your throat.
He looked down at you as he held your face ever so delicately and said in response, “Yes, I do. For quite a while now.” Your face felt hot and you removed yourself from the hug, just squirming in excitement.
‘WELL, I LOVE YOU TOO!”, you shouted, not realizing that the adrenaline made you confess. He laughed a bit and held your hand as he said, “I know.” and gave you a small peck on the head.
“That was my treat to you, Danchou.”, he smirked a little as soon as he gave you the kiss.
You were practically on the verge of exploding from the love, screaming in happiness, and many mixed feelings.
But you just held his hand and a happy tear came down your face as you said, “Happy Halloween, Eustace.”
He held your hand a bit firmly as he replied back with so much love in his voice, “Happy Halloween, (Y/N).”
