Horror Nights || Oikawa Tooru x Reader

30. October


“How about we do something spooky to really get into the Halloween mood, (Name)-chan?“

“What do you have in mind, Oikawa-kun?”

The brown haired setter smirked.
“Well, the local theme park has an event going on, called Horror Nights. Basically, people dressed as monsters try to scare you.”

“Hmm... I've never been to something like that, so why not? Sounds like fun!” you chirped while giving the boy a closed eye smile.

“I knew you'd say that, so I've already reserved us two tickets for tomorrow! Anyway, I have to go back to practice now. I'll mail you the details later, okay? Bye (Name)-chan, I'm looking forward to tomorrow!”

And with that, the brown eyed boy ran off to the gym, leaving you dumbfounded. Why did he suddenly plan something like this? You had the feeling that your friend had ulterior motives, but since you couldn't point out what was wrong with your date, you just let go of that thought.
Wait. Date?
Suddenly a blush crept up your face. Immediately your hands found their way on your hot cheeks.

'No no no, calm down (Name). This is not a date. You just hang out as friends. Nothing more.'

But it's not like that helped.

Fortunately, the cold fall wind helped you getting rid of the hot blood in your cheeks. Now you just had to be mentally prepared for tomorrow. Although you weren't so sure, if it was because of the monsters or your long-time crush and friend, Oikawa Tooru.

Finally home, you quickly finished your homework and housework. When you looked at your phone, you saw the promised e-mail with the details for tomorrow.

Oikawa: Hey, (Name)-chan~! About tomorrow... I pick you up at 7pm and then we'll walk to the theme park, since it's not that far. Please put warm clothes on!! I don't want you to catch a cold! The end of the event is at 11pm. I hope that's okay with you..? If not, then I'll happily walk you home a little earlier! I think that's it? I hope you're as excited as I am! Good night, (Name)-chan~

A smile found its way on your face. You quickly typed in a reply, before you brushed your teeth, changed into you pajamas and made your way in your cozy bed.

You: Hey and yeah, that's okay with me. I'm looking forward to tomorrow as well! Good night, Oikawa-kun.


31. October


When you woke up, you still had lots of time before Oikawa would come to pick you up. You made yourself breakfast, brushed your teeth, took a shower and chose something to wear later. Time flew by so fast, you almost didn't notice that you had to hurry.
Over your chosen clothes, you put on a thick (f/c) coat and some boots. You quickly combed your (h/l) (h/c) hair with your fingertips and put a fitting beanie on. Just minutes later you heard the doorbell ring. You took a last look in the mirror to check if you looked okay and then opened the door for your friend.
And there he was, looking as handsome as ever, even in his casual clothes.

“(Name)-chan, you look so cute! Are you ready?” grinned the male, making you blush.

“Hello to you too and t-thanks... I am when you are.”

“Okay, then lets go!” and with that he grabbed your hand and energetically dragged you along.

After a few minutes, you two walked side by side, unconsciously still holding hands, talking about your lives and club activities. When you two reached your destination, you noticed the sky already turned dark. Oikawa asked nicely for your reserved tickets at the ticket office, got them and so the two of you walked through the gate of the theme park.
You immediately noticed how crowded it was.
Oikawa seemed to sense what you were thinking, because his grip on your hand suddenly tightened. When you looked up to him, he just smiled at you and said “I don't want you to get lost”.

You nodded with a light blush on your face.
Walking around the park deciding what you would like to start with, you could already hear a chainsaw and screaming not that far away.

“Are you scared, (Name)-chan?”

“Huh? Nuh-uh, not even a bit. I'm prepared for everything that might come!”

Oikawa's smile slightly faltered for a moment, but you certainly were more busy with deciding what you wanted to do first.

“How about we just go there first?”

You pointed at the line not far away from you.

“I think it's called Nightmare. Doesn't that sound interesting, Oikawa-kun?”

You looked up at him with eager eyes.

“Uh, yeah sure. I do whatever you want to do first, (Name)-chan.”

You two lined up together, talking about whatever could happen inside the building. I didn't take long until the girls around you noticed your attractive friend and started whispering behind your back.

“Hey, do you see that guy?”

“Yeah, he's pretty cute, isn't he?”

“Do you think the girl next to him is his girlfriend?”

“Nah, maybe they're relatives or something like that.”

“Are you sure? They're holding hands.”

“Should I ask him, if he wants to come with us?”

You started to feel a little uncomfortable. You looked up to see Oikawa giving you a smile, before pulling you closer to him with a tug on your arm.
He leaned down and whispered into your ear “I think we look pretty cute together.”

You immediately felt blood rushing to your cheeks, whereupon he just commented on how cute you looked when you're embarrassed. You whispered a short and quiet “Shut up” and felt Oikawa pulling you along, since you were the next two in the line to go in.

Entering the building, the only thing you saw was darkness. Somewhere at the end of the dark hallway, you two saw a flickering light. Still holding hands, you made your way to light. Hearing a creepy laughter, your grip on his hand tightened. You opened the door to find a dark, but colorful room full with dolls, toys and a few full-sized clown figures. The light bulb in the middle of the room seemed almost broken, since it didn't stop flickering. Laughter from every direction seemed to fill the room. The moment you tried to open the next door with your free hand, one of the creepy full-sized clown figures appeared from nowhere and took hold of your hand while starting to laugh high-pitched. Oikawa eagerly stared at you, waiting for a reaction.

You just looked up at the clown and asked “Excuse me, could you please let go of my hand? We have to go to the next room. Thanks.”

The clown let go off you, waiting for the next people to (hopefully) scare. Oikawa blinked in surprise. This really wasn't the reaction he expected. All the way through the building, you would just smile at the monsters who tried to scare you, while Oikawa just stared at you with a slight frown on his face.
Why weren't you scared?
When you finally find your way out of the building, you started to giggle.

“This was really fun, wasn't it Oikawa-kun?”

You looked up to him.

“Is something the matter? Didn't you enjoy our way through the house?” you asked, your smile starting to falter.

“N-no it's nothing like that! I just didn't expect you to be so brave, (Name)-chan.” he answered rubbing his neck with his free hand.

“Me neither to be honest. I'm actually quite jumpy, but like I said, I'm mentally prepared for anything that could come.”

A long sigh slipped the setter's mouth and you began to wonder.

“Oikawa-kun? Is it bad that I'm not scared?”

A light blush started to cover his cheeks.

“I-I was hoping you would be scared, so I could protect you...” the boy mumbled.

Now it was your turn to blush.

“H-huh? Why would you want to do that?”

“Because I was hoping you would fall for me, if I protect you from the scary monsters here!”

Silence.

“So y-you-” he cut off your stuttering.

“Yes, I like- no love you! And I was hoping you'd feel the same for me after today..”

Looking him in the eyes, you started to laugh.

“You're such an idiot, Oikawa-kun.”

“(N-name)-chan, don't be so mean-”

“I can't fall for you after today, because I've already fallen for you a long time ago.”

Your blush worsened, but if that's not the best time to spill the beans, then when would that be?
The brown haired boy's eyes widened, before he leaned down, giving you a passionate kiss on the lips.

Well, that definitely caught you off-guard.

You returned the kiss right away when you processed what was even happening.
When the two of you separated, you both started to laugh.

“It seems like my plan still kind of worked.” smirked the tall boy giving you genuine smile.

“You're such a dork, Oikawa-kun.”

“Your now officially my girlfriend. Call me by first name.”

The boy often wanted you to call him by his first name, but you never found the right moment to...until now.

“O-okay... You're a dork...Tooru.”

You were pretty sure, this was the best kind of ulterior motive someone could ever have.
