A Haunting Romance-A Trick R' Treat RP (Chp2)

*An hour later...the two of them are watching a scary movie with tehir costumes on*

Illust: *was cowering against Luke wen the horror parts came out*

Luke: *held onto her, smiling* We have a guest.

Illust: *looks up* Who is it?

Luke: *bit into a familiar lollipop*

Illust: *noticed* Oh

*so saying, there was a knock on the door, the kind of knock tht Luke was familiar with*

Luke: *got up and headed to the door, opening it* Hey Sam

Sam: *nodded n sees Illust, digging his bag n handed her a bunch of rose buds, tho it looked a little bloody, n his clothes were a bit of a mess*

Luke: *knelt down* Who broke the rules this time?

Illust: *pulled bk, not sure whether to accept the roses or not*

Sam: *held out a torn rag, tht seems to belong to the lady at the nxt corner for always putting out the lights in the lantern before she should*

Luke: *Sighed heavily* Poor Ms. Rose. I kept telling her. *looked to Illust* it's okay, he got those before he did his job

Illust: *took the roses, blushing a little* Does he... "like me" like me or something?

Luke: You're the first. And yes, he does like like you.

Sam: *takes Illust' hand n kissed, tho its more like his sack face rubbing against it*

Illust: *blushed more*

Luke: AWwww that's so adorable

Illust: *takes the flowers to put it in a vase*

Sam: *turns to Luke in a "Wht's her story? Where did u find her?" gesture*

Luke: She's an orphan I adopted last year. Her family were being abusive to her and she ran away

Sam: *nodded, then give him a "Do they appreciate Halloween?" look*

Luke: Did your family like Halloween before I took you in?

Illust: *shook her head* They were vry overprotective of me. They kept me a prisoner in my own home, n didnt allow me to hv friends. They said the world is a cruel plc, n would always beat me n force me to bath in scalding water if I didnt obey them or try to sneak out... *frowned at the memory*

Luke: So no. Damn

Illust: I've nvr celebrated any holidays, evr, not evn Christmas. They said holidays r for uncivilized, sex-rampant, hormone-crazed godless ppl... *starts to cry*

Sam: *came to her n held her close, which was quite a cute sight since they were both almost the same height, Illust a bit taller than him*

Luke: The thing about Sam, Illust. He's been alone all his life till he met me. And you

Illust: *sniffs* Why...? Doesnt he hv any friends? Fellow Halloween guardians or ghouls or something?

Luke: No, he's been alone. Along with you, I consider him family

Sam: *nodded in agreement*

Illust: W...ell...OK then

Sam: *turns to Luke in a "Can I kill her parents" look*

Luke: No need for that, Sam. They're in prison for life. I think that's worse than what you have in mind

Sam: *looked at Illust with a "Did he rescue u frm them?" look*

Illust: *figured tht out a bit n nodded* He saved my life

Sam: *has a "How?" look*

Luke: Sam, do you want to show Illust what you look like under the mask? That's up to you

Illust: I'm...curious too

Sam: *hesitated, then undid the sack to show his face, which shown his face partially blown off by the old man he visited bt slowly healing*

Illust: *shocked bt surprisingly not scared* Oh no, wht happened to u? *tended to him*

Luke: Who did this to you?!

Sam: *held up the chocolate bar he got frm the old eccentric man who nvr celebrates Halloween tht was stabbed thru his penknife, n evryone knew the old man only loved eating this kind of chocolate*

Luke: *recognized it* Wow, you scared Mr. Kreeg?

Sam: *nodded*

Illust: *came bk with a first-aid kit. She wasnt sure whether to put medication or not, so she settled with bandages n gauze, wrapping them up gently as it healed n regenerate itself slowly*

Luke: ^^ Aw look. She's helping you

Sam: *looked like he was blushing, bt not exactly able to see thru coz of his pumpkin complexion*

Illust: *finished wrapping* There, all done

Luke: Do you like scary movies, Sam? I never got the chance to ask that

Sam: *shrugs in a "They're OK" manner*

Illust: Tht's a bit of a trick question, Luke, seeing tht he kills for a living?

Luke: We're watching one right now called Halloween

Sam: *gives a bored look*

Luke: Whatcha wanna do?

Sam: *tapped his chin, then lit up n took their hands in a "come with me" manner*

Illust: Umm, where is he taking us?

Luke: I dunno. *gets his coat on* Get your coat and let's go

Illust: *nodded n got her coat, following Sam*
