โDarling did you find the movie you wanted to watch?โ
โYup! Finally. Itโs hard to find good movies these days.โ you sighed โThey characters either do the most stupid decisions, the plot is boring or not scary at all. And I want some good stuff.โ
Moments like this were rare. As the boss of the port mafia he was a really busy man. If he wasnโt busy with paperwork and organizing, he was busy resting or fulfilling Eliseโs needs and requests. Of course you were mostly present in the last part but you still hadnโt much time alone. Just you two. It was simply a prize you had to pay if you wanted to be with him.
โAhhh itโs been a long time since I watched something.โ he said thoughtful while leaning back onto the sofa โIf I remember well it was more than a year agoโ
โWell letโs see if some horror will be your cup of tea then. The ratings of this movie are pretty high and the reviews are nearly all over good.โ
You sat down beside him and leaned your head on his shoulder while he put an arm around your waist. As the time went by and the plot in the movie developed you noticed by the look on his face that he could easily spoil the whole plot. The movie was pretty scary but you doubted that this could scare a person who had done things worse than that. And now as one of the main characters ran to the last train you could only think โRun, Run, Run! Donโt turn back. Just Run!โ the tension was high and you were curious what would happen next. But as often seen in horror movies he turned around. A black matter pierced trough his face making it a quite brutal and gore-some death. At the same time you let out a short but high pitched scream. This movie had a high rating for gore after all.
With a โHmm?โ he lowered the volume of the TV. He looked at you with curious and a bit surprised eyes. It wasnโt like you never watched horror movies, in fact when he sometimes passed by you he often saw someone get murdered in your phone. But he guessed that seeing some get pierced right through the mouth was a bit too much.
โYou alright?โ he asked
โYes I am. Can you turn the volume up? I donโt hear anything.โ
โAwww my Y/N-chan youโre so cute when you are grumpy and fearless.โ he exclaimed pulling you closer into his arms
โIโm not afraid, I was just simply surprised. Thatโs all.โ you explained
โOf course, of courseโ he smiled
โI have a brilliant Idea!โ he exclaimed โLetโs watch something Elise friendly next time. Iโm sure โUpโ or โFinding Nemoโ would be nice for both of you. Last time when we went to the aquarium she enjoyed watching the fish.โ
โIsnโt โFinding Nemoโ old?โ
You werenโt against old movies or movies for children. Quite the opposite: It was nice to remember old childhood memories. It was refreshing but sad at the same time to remember old bygone days when life was easy and problems were small and unimportant.
โPerhaps, but old doesnโt mean bad. I hope I find some time soon to spend it with you two~โ

โHow about this one?โ
For the last 5 minutes your conversation sounded like this. It was rather hard to find a movie that he would watch with you. He was at your place and since you didnโt plan anything to do you offered to watch a movie. The main quest was: Find a movie. You offered him many from different genres but he didnโt seem to like any of them. He was picky since he liked movies with a good and interesting plot. He declined every movie until you came into the horror section. You enjoyed horror movies but not all of them. Some were just too scary to handle. But it seemed he found the one among the others.
The description of the movie was interesting so you agreed to watch it. But after a while you kinda regretted it. The beginning was interesting and not scary at all. But right after the first 25 minutes the horror began. No question the movie was well made but the tense atmosphere, the dark and abandoned scenes and the empty bloody black holes that the person in front of the protagonist had instead of eyes made shivers run down your spine.
โAre you scared?โ he said and looked at you
โNope, not at all.โ you said
The movie was more unsettling than scary. But he seemed to like it. Such moments were rather rare when you both could just sit together on the sofa and do nothing and the silence was still a pleasant one. Now around halfway through the movie there was a rather claustrophobic scene underwater. You were already nervous for the protagonist even if you knew that it was just fiction. You were hugging your pillow tightly and when you thought the main character made it the โthingโ that was following her jumped out. A typical jumpscare but enough to make you let out a high pitched scream. He looks at you concerned and pauses the movie.
โYeah yeah I'm alright don't worry...โ
But you didnโt sound very confident and he on the other hand didnโt dive deeper into it and pressed the play button again. You sat on the sofa, hugging your pillow tightly with a unsettled look on your face when you felt his arm sliding around your shoulder that was pulling you softly to him. You turned your head a little bit to him but he was looking straight at the TV not paying attention to you. Affection wasnโt something that Akutagawa gave often or liked. But you didnโt decline his offer and snuggled up to him. Not too much but quite enough so you both were comfortable. With his other hand he covered his mouth to cough but he seemed unbothered and focused again on the movie. His gesture didnโt make the movie less unsettling but it made you calm down and be less frightened by it.
โWellโฆโฆ.since the movie is over should we go into the kitchen? I think I have some figs left in my refrigerator and I bought some tea yesterday too.โ
You didnโt quite know what you should do after the movie but you didnโt want him to leave yet. You thought he would say no but with a nod he covered his mouth with his hand to cough. As you stood up he quietly followed you to the kitchen to continue this lovely night.

โA-are you sure that you want to watch that movie?โ
โYeah Iโm pretty sure. Why? Are you afraid?โ you teased him
It was a lie. He was scared of the movie. Even though he himself probably wrote some scarier mystery novels than that movie he still didnโt feel right with this one. The bright red 18+ mark, the dark cover with blood and tools that were used in old psychiatryโs (also covered in blood) made him curious and frightened at the same time. Psychological horror wasnโt his cup of tea after all.
โYou sure? If you donโt like it we can always watch something else. I know some great comedy movies too.โ
Even if his reaction were funny you still cared about him. The last thing you wanted is to make him uncomfortable but he insisted that he wasnโt scared at all so you let him beโฆfor now. You were looking forward for your movie night the whole week but till the end you didnโt quite know what to watch. In the end your choice fell on a horror movie from the 90s. You placed the snacks and drinks on the table in front of the sofa and clicked on โplayโ after you both got comfortable.
The first hour of the 3 hours long movie were fine. The plot was pretty good and didnโt fall into typical clichรฉs that you often see. Poe almost thought that it was just an old detective movie and not a horror one. Almost. Slowly the movie became creepy. The visions of the mental ill patient got worse, the paranoia and schizophrenia made the line between reality and vision blurry and the attempts to escape the psychiatry became more and more desperate. Even you both couldnโt tell if something was reality or just another projection of the twisted mind of the protagonist. Poe started to fell more frightened than in the beginning. Chills ran down his spine and you could see on his face how unsettling the movie was for him. Near the end when the movie reached its peak of action and the most horror already happened he felt a bit better. But in the end the last jumpscare got him. It was too calm in the movie and he sensed that something was wrong but this came a bit unexpected. Even you were taken aback but the short high pitched scream didnโt come from you. It came from the person beside you who hugged the pillow. In the end you just waited for the credits to approach him.
โAnd how was it? Too scary~?โ
โYeah, yeah we will just ignore the little scream of yours near the end~โ you smiled innocently
Behind his black hair that was covering his eyes you could see a blush. He opened and closed his mouth searching for words to defend himself from your teasing. After all, he didnโt watch as many scary movies as you so he was easily terrified of them. Before he could say something you stopped him.
โAlright before you say anything letโs watch some TV-shows. There are some channels which show late night comedy and contests so letโs watch something before we go to sleep.โ you said and reached for the TV remote.
He felt defeated. But he didnโt say another word and just leaned back on the sofa holding you close to him. Holding you was relieving since he knew he wasn't alone. You snuggled up to him and were quickly using the remote to find an interesting show.
โI was not scaredโฆโ he said silently but determined
โI know, I know.โ again you chuckled a bit
