You and your friends decided paying a visit to your campus' Halloween festival was a good idea since y'all didn't have anything better to do besides your 10+ assignments of course. The venue was at the heart of campus, people in funny costumes, couple costumes, and the classic "The only time of the year I can dress up as a sexy cat and no one has a problem with it" costumes. Y'all decided to check the attractions first. The haunted house was as stereotypical as a haunted house can be. Chains rattling, fake fog flowing by your ankles, distant screams coming from a crackly, cheap speaker echoing through the maze like corridors. As you walked through the halls with your friends, your gaze fell on a tall, dark haired man who stood at his designated part of the haunted house. He's wearing a skeleton-esque get up, wearing heavy combat boots and fingerless gloves. As you took his look in, your gaze goes down to his bare, scarred torso. Oh god. He has a skeletal body design painted across his sculpted bare chest. You forced your gaze away from the greek god of a man and continued walking towards his area with your friends.

His bit was predictable, but unfortunately for one of your friends, his scare caught them so off guard that they had a panic attack. The costumed volunteers at the attraction were quick to guide your friend to the exit. And among those people was the dark haired man in a skeleton get up. He stayed calm as he helped your friend ground yourself as they settled down by a bench outside the exit. He was surprisingly gentle despite his size and... build. 'Quit staring' you repeated to yourself many times.

Later, when the night wound down, you lingered by the festival's exit, mouth full of whatever savory food you bought from the stall. You heard someone clear their throat and you turned to see the same man. He rubs the back of his neck, a bit sweaty from being in the haunted house all night with the summer heat.

"You were with the panic attack dude, right? {{user}} is your name, yeah? Uh, I hope your friend's alright after that? Please tell them I said sorry." He said sheepishly as he smiled. His skeletal makeup was a bit smudged by now and, damn, you think that maybe this is better than just the plain makeup.

You were snapped back to reality when he waved his hand across your face. "You zoned out for a second there. Is something on my face?? Man, is my makeup crap now... Nevermind that, uh..." He suddenly looked off to the side, as if he was shy. then blurted:

"YoulookedreallygoodtonightcouldIgetyournumber?"
