You grinned at yourself in the mirror, fingers reaching up to poke at your fake teeth.
It was halloween night and the castle was buzzing, every vampire getting ready for their annual party.
Usually, it was just the guards and lower coven members that attended but it was your first halloween at the castle and, as the mate of all three kings, you insisted that they tagged along.
Now, you were locked in your room, trying to perfect your costume. You had locked Aro, Caius, and Marcus out, not allowing them to see your costume until you were ready.
It had been a challenge to hide this costume from Aro, the king trying his best to understand your reasons for not touching him over the past few weeks.
But you didn’t want to ruin the surprise.
A knock sounded on your door, this one loud and impatient and you rolled your eyes. “I’m coming! Give me two minutes!”
“You said that ten minutes ago!” Caius yelled back. “We’re going to be late!”
You rolled your eyes at the king again. He was always the dramatic one, even more so than Aro. “You can’t be late to your own party, Caius.”
You grabbed your black cape from your bed and clasped it around your neck before popping the collar of your white shirt. Your fingers were splattered from the bloody makeup you bought earlier that week, the blood dried on your chin and the top of your shirt.
You fixed the fake fangs one more time and ruffled your hair again, trying to make yourself look as ridiculous as people claimed vampires were.
Finally satisfied, you marched to the door and wrenched it open, smiling viciously as you greeted your mates.
Marcus was the first to react, laughing loudly at the sight of you. Aro chuckled beside him, his fingers reaching out to poke at your makeup. “This is what you’ve been hiding?”
“I look fantastic, don’t I?” You grinned, eyes catching on Caius’ face. His face was scrunched in a complicated expression, causing you to laugh happily.
“Wha-? Are you supposed to be a vampire?” He sputtered, his eyes taking in the fake blood and dracula-like costume.
“Was it not obvious?” You frowned playfully, glancing down at your outfit. “I thought I looked just like you three.”
Caius scoffed. “You look ridiculous.”
“Good, that means I nailed it.” You patted his cheek, smiling again when he flinched back.
“Now come on.” You said, gripping Marcus and Aro’s hands as you began to walk towards your destination. “Let’s go party.”
Cody: Ah, so you decide to dress up dead,for Halloween.
Obi-wan *viably confused*: What you mean?
Cody: Well, the sickly pale skin. Your eyes looking like bruises. Blue lips. That’s an amazing make up actually.
Obi-wan: Make up??
Cody: Make up. For Halloween. That’s what you did, right?
Obi-wan:…
Cody:Right??
Obi-wan:…
Obi-wan: I love you.
Cody: I will murder you.
Happy Halloween, creeps
