Halloween was upon Nicole and Amy, they'd managed to steer clear of Eva throughout the month and now they could relax while going out to a Halloween party. Or so they thought, Chris and Juliana had been invited out last minute to a Halloween party. The original plan was for Chris and Juliana to stay home and take care of the trick or treaters, but because of the exclusive nature of the party Nicole and Amy were stuck on candy duty. "We are so sorry Nicole, Amy. But please, I promise you can have a good time while staying home. Rent any movie you want, and any leftover candy is yours." Nicole wasn't that bothered by the sudden change, and neither was Amy but Juliana felt bad and felt she needed to add incentive. "We'll be home around three, so don't wait for us. Bye girls, don't do anything stupid." They chimed in with a simultaneous 'We won't'. And then they were alone, mostly the constant stream of young trick or treaters kept them somewhat occupied.
"Do you want popcorn Amy?" The stream of trick or treaters began to fade and the girls decided to settle in for a calm night of horror movies and leftover candy. Amy was allowed to pick the movie this time, to ensure she wouldn't be absolutely petrified the whole time. She decided on an old zombie flick with cheesy makeup.
"Sure, I'll take popcorn. Extra butter in my bowl please!" Amy was still waiting at the door in anticipation of more trick or treaters.
"Get away from the door, we won't have to deal with any trick or treaters until the late crowd. And then we just need to tell them where they can go for some munchies."
"Fine, but I find it concerning that you know where these 'munchies' are." Nicole was of course referring to post high hunger.
"The old lady down the block always gives out chip bags, it's not a big deal. Now get over here you chose the movie you're going to watch it with me." Amy moved away from the door and took the stool she had used to put the bowl of candy on, back to the counter. "Your popcorn is in the blue bowl, don't touch mine, it's the green one." Amy nodded and snuggled closer to Nicole in anticipation of a jump scare off the bat. This made Nicole feel flushed again, she found the close intimate contact extremely distraction while they watched the movie. It wasn't scary, even by Amy's standards, so halfway through they tapped out and opted for a more current horror movie. This one had Amy practically hitting the ceiling every time the main antagonist showed her face. "It's a movie, don't be scared." Nicole was forced to hold Amy close to her to control the shivering and shaking that the movie had caused.
"That's the point, it's a movie, it's not real but it's meant to make us think it's real." Amy was biting her nails from nerves. It was making an awful cracking noise as she bit closer and closer to the skin. So Nicole did the only logical thing she could think of. She grabbed both of Amy's hands in one of her and pinned them down on the couch.
"Stop, you're going to get hurt biting your nails like that. If you need to bite something, get some gum or candy. We have plenty of both." Nicole had an extreme oral fixation so gum was not a problem, and the candy bowl was still half full.
"Maybe I'll just bite you." Nicole turned her head, causing a heated sensation to run up it, but she didn't care. Was Amy flirting with her? Once Amy's hands were secured to the couch Nicole hesitantly put her hand on the side of Amy's face and turned it towards her. Amy hadn't bothered looking at her, even after making that comment. Amy's face was red, from fear or embarrassment Nicole couldn't tell, and she didn't really care. All she cared about at the moment was kissing Amy. She slowly pulled Amy's face towards hers and softly pressed their lips together. Was it sad to say that this was Nicole's first kiss, slightly. But it was also somehow perfect, Amy pressed back lightly, it was chaste and sweet, nothing sexual came from it. But that also confused Nicole, wasn't something sexual supposed to come from it? Amy reached towards Nicole's face and grabbed it, pressing their lips together more, still no tongue was involved. But since this was Nicole's first kiss she decided to stay chaste and simple. Amy pulled away finally after a solid minute of kissing
"That was a very bad idea Nicole, a good one, but I can't right now." Nicole was confused, hadn't Amy been resturning Nicole's feelings, why would she kiss her otherwise. "I can't, this isn't right for us to do." Nicole was still dazed from the kiss. "We can't date." It hurt Amy to say these things but she was thinking ahead, when Nicole's parents found out and were disgusted with Amy. She couldn't take that.
"Can we still kiss?" Nicole was left feeling deprived when Amy pulled away. She didn't mean to sound desperate, or like that was the only reason she was interested in Amy, but she so desperately wanted to kiss her again. Amy shook her head and pushed Nicole away.
"We can't do that. What will your parents think?"
"That I'm lucky to have snagged such a good person. Please just one more kiss, and if you still don't want anything I'll drop it." Amy gave in way too easily to this. She leaned back in and ended up being the one to initiate the kiss. This one was heavier, more passionate. Nicole could tell Amy wanted this by the way she gripped the back of Nicole's neck; even if she wasn't ready to admit it. Amy was the first to pull away, she wiped her lips and moved away from Nicole.
"I don't feel anything. I want to go to bed now. Goodnight Nicole." Amy shut off the lights and went to Nicole's bedroom, leaving Nicole heartbroken, and in the dark. Nicole took the couch that night leaving her parents confused as to what had transpired in the few hours they were gone.
