At 1am, I’m sitting cross-legged on my bed, stuffing leftover candy from trick-or-treaters mindlessly into my mouth. Jennifer’s Body is playing on the TV, and I’m completely engrossed in a scene where she’s eating some emo dude. I’m still dressed in my makeshift Halloween costume, so I have a towel underneath me to not get any blood on my bed.

It turned out to be a pretty good night. I did a little photoshoot in my bedroom, then helped Sara hand out candy. We didn’t have a lot of kids come by – hence the candy I’m shoveling into my mouth – but I ended up having fun hanging out with Sara.

I’m unwrapping a mini-Twix when my bedroom door slams open, making me almost jump out of my skin.

Carson appears in the doorway, and I slap a hand to my chest before I yell at him. “You scared the shit out of me, Carson!”

He laughs, swaggering into my room and dropping down onto my bed so hard that my discarded wrappers fly in the air. I shake my head at him. “Excuse you?”

He peeks into the candy bowl between my legs, poking through it before pulling out a mini-Snickers. “Whatcha doing?”

I watch him as he unwraps it, then stuffs the whole thing into his mouth. “I’m watching a movie… What are you doing?”

He grabs another piece of candy from the bowl and holds it up to show me, speaking with his mouth full. “Getting some candy.”

I roll my eyes. “I mean, aren’t you supposed to be at a Halloween party?”

He chews between words, shrugging his shoulders. “Eh, it was boring. Wanted to come home. Hang out. You know?”

I look at him like he’s speaking German. “No, I don’t know.”

He sighs, swallowing the last of his candy before he meets my gaze. “I didn’t feel like partying, I wanted to hang out with you.”

I scrunch my face up. “Why?”

He laughs. “Don’t play stupid, it’s not a good look for you.”

I huff. “Every look is a good look for me.” He laughs, and we both pull another piece of candy from the bowl. We sit in silence, both eating sweets and staring at the TV.

At some point, Carson got comfortable on my pillows, crossing his legs over one another on my bed. He turns to me. “So, the point of this movie is… what?”

I look at him out of the corner of my eye. “That men ain’t shit.”

He hums between his lips in thought. “Except she has to eat them to survive, so… they are shit.”

I laugh. “She chooses to eat only boys because they’re the worst – you should know this, being a boy and all.” I wave a hand. “It’s symbolic of how men are the worst.”

“Ah.” He nods. “Gotcha.”

I stand up. “I need to wash all this blood off of me, feel free to finish the movie.”

He grabs my hand as I’m passing him, pulling me back a little. “Show me the pictures you took first.”

Laughing, I shake my head. “Absolutely not.
