All Hallows Haunt and All Must Have Fun
The fog had begun near the dusk hours, coating all the plants and flowers in the garden. It settled, heavy, and blanketed everything with a new cover that was only matched in mood by the graveyard that had unearthed itself from the grass and the moss. Names were etched on each gravestone, but the most unnerving part was that every few steps, if you stopped and listened very, very carefully, you might hear a knock of a human hand against hard wood. It was almost as if the dead were being called upwards.
The maze stood normal, but inside around the corners, there were things lurking and waiting.
Outside might have become frightening and gloomy, but the contrast to indoors was stark. Inside, carved pumpkins lit with candles turned the ballroom and restaurants into amber-lit abodes, costumed partygoers twirled to the music played by the band in the lobby (while the DJ had set up in the conservatory). Candy and small hors d'oeuvres circulated on the trays of immaculately clad waiters and though outside it was stormy, foggy, and spooky, inside was a delight of themed drinks, delicious food, and the manic and half-crazed mood of people in the midst of their fun.
The party for Halloween had begun.
And there was no telling when it might ever end.

"Is there a reason I shouldn't?" he asks, digging into the basket of candy for something chocolate. "I can leave if you'd rather I not stay." If he wasn't interested, he'd've already gotten up to leave.

"Coconut?" She hums a few notes of this song, a smile playing on her lips.

He waves a finger in a circle between his shoulder and her head. "What is this?" he asks, tone far more gentle than it might seem. He's not objecting.

She tosses the wrapper to the side onto a growing pile of empty wrappers. "Tomorrow I might find a beach and work on my tan." Which is hilarious given her pale, porcelain skin. She does not tan. She burns.
