Sweet Temptation 3

Soon as I reach home I place my costume on the bed and went to take a shower. After I was finished went in the kitchen to make the cookies for the party. I didn't have time to by any sweets and decided that making it will be okay. Also it saves me more money.

I had made, pumpkins, ghosts, spiders and spiderwebs shape cookies because i had extra time i also made chocolate truffles which was now in the fridge. I was now putting on decoration on the shaped cookies.

"The pumpkins are orange...the spider webs and ghosts are white...the spider....black."

"Phew.."

I was finally finish with the decoration as I place the cookies with the Chocolate truffles in two small plastic bags and tie it with an orange and white ribbon.

"Why did I made two?" I said looking at the bags.

"It's not like he's going to take it.. But what if he does?" I murmured to myself.

I was regretting how easy-going I am, and didn't even realize that Kou was in the kitchen.

"Mina aren't you getting ready for the party?" He asked.

I look at Kou. His white hair was messy and had in a pair of wolf ears at the back was a tail and was wearing a fur like shoes. It was simple yet cute.

"A wolf I see.. I thought you'll go as a-"

"Vampire." he said cutting me off as he continued, "Nah.. I wanted to try something different."

He then pointed on me, "What about you are you going as a ghost housewife?" he asked smiling.

I looked at myself covered in flour and icing then realized I have to go get ready.

"I have to go get ready...But I have to clean up this mess..." I said looking around at the orange and white icing on the table.

"Don't worry, I will take care of this." He said.

"Thank you, Kou!" I said as I continued, "There's some treats on the table help yourself." I knew how much Kou likes sweet, even if he barely shows it.

He nod as I ran off to my room to get ready.

------------------------------------------------------------

I was now looking at myself in the mirror, 'I guess it not bad.' I thought.

I look at the black fur ears on my head. I had decided to let my hair down. Turning my back to the mirror, I glance at it to see the tiny bat like wings.

"I wonder if I flap them if I'll fly?" I joked to myself. I then look at the time to see its almost 8.

"Kai will be here any minute now." I told myself as I picked up my purse.

I then left my room and ran into the already cleaned kitchen where i met Kou sitting while eating one of the chocolate truffle.

"How is it?" I asked taking up the bags and placing it in the purse.

He nodded then swallowed, "It's good." he then went after the cookie.

"Don't eat all of them at once, you'll get a stomachache." I warned him then went in the living room to meet Satoshi sitting in one of the couch.

"Satoshi, you're back." I said as he turn to me.

His honey yellow and cyan orbs observed me as he stood up and walked towards me.

We were inches apart when he spoke, "Sorry for how I acted earlier... and you look great Minako."

"Thank you and it's okay." I said meaning it.

"But what are you?" Satoshi asked as he touched my fur ears.

"Hey. Not the ears" I said. He pulled away, a hint of red can be seen on his face as he apologize , I looked at him and giggle.

"I'm a vampire bat...see." I turn around showing him the wings.

I then muttered, "I didn't want to wear anything that stands out to much."

"No matter what you wear you're still adorable." He murmured.

"What?" I turned towards him but what I didn't realize that he had taken a few more steps towards me.

Inches turned into centimeters and I found myself glued to the floor. He then came closer and whispered in my ear.

"Now go before I stop you from attending the party." He said lustfully as my face turned the brightest shade of red.

At the same time a knocking was heard coming from the door.

Turning my attention at the door for a moment, i turn back to Satoshi to see he was gone.

The knocking continued and wasting no more time I walked towards the door and open it to see Kai in a Dracula suit.

I couldn't shake what had happened earlier as I heard Kai spoke,

"Are you okay?"

I snapped out of my thoughts and nodded at him, "I'm fine, and you look great." I said changing the subject.

"Thank you and you look lovely." he said.

"Thanks." I said.

"Let's not waste anymore time." he said.

I nodded in agreement, then the both of us started to walked towards his car. Opening the door for me, I entered as he closed it and got in the driver's seat. Giving me a small smile, he then starts the engine and drove off.

------------------------------------------------------------

As we walk towards the gates, I look at the grey and gloomy castle-like  mansion that was built out of dark stone that had been stained darker in the rain, with vines running out of it. The windows was boarded like they were trying to prevent something from coming out.

I held on to Kai's cloak and spoke,

"I guess they pick a right place for a Halloween party."

Kai notice my nervous eyes as I looked at the vines that was growing on the building.

"Are you scared?" He asked.

"Kinda." I admit, "Am not really into seeing these things."

"Do you want to go somewhere else?" He suddenly ask. I look up at him surprise.

"No its okay." I said.

" But you won't enjoy it." He said concern. It's nice that he's always looking out for me like this.

I smile, "If I'm with you then I'll enjoy it."

Giving up we continue walking until we met two guys infount the gate dressed as vampires.

"Trick or Treat." They said in sync.

One of them eyed me, seeing I was scared he spoke, "Hey cutie, beware... for there's a tale about a family who died in that very same mansion and buried in the basement." he pointed on the house.

My eyes widened.

The other guy then smack the guy in his head, "Hey watch what you're doing."

"What?" He asked smiling then look at Kai who was glancing at him. He stop smiling, It was like his blood run dry as his body stood still.

I took out one of the small bag and pass it to the other guy. Kai pull out a bag of sweets as the guy pass something in his hand.

"Enjoy tonight." they said as they push open the gates creating squeaking noise.

I look at Kai who spoke, "Don't bother with him. He just wanted someone to scare."

"O..Okay." I nodded as we walk in.
