"Hey _____! You want to watch some scary movies~?"

Why did your conversations always start out like this?

You were at Alfred's place; he had invited you over because he said he had a 'big announcement'. Had you known it was going to be this, you would have stayed at home.

"No." You stated blankly.

You watched as his shoulders slumped and his eyebrows furrowed.  "Aw, come on, please?" He begged. He looked at you, giving you those glorious puppy eyes of his. You quickly looked away, avoiding his gaze. 'Ah, why does he have to look at me like that!? I must not give in…'

You cleared your throat. "I said no, Alfred! I-I'm not going to watch those scary movies with you." You had been sitting on the couch in his den, you moved to get up and leave, when Alfred rushed over and suddenly grabbed your wrist.

"A-Al..?" You looked at him and he slowly met your gaze. "I'm sorry, please don't leave, okay?" He smiled weakly. His grip tightened slightly, and you looked away, to the floor. "A-Alright fine…" You mumbled.

Alfred beamed and let go of your wrist completely. "Alright! Then let's get started!"  He dashed down the hall with the videos in hand and a giant smile on his face. 'Dammit… why do I always give in to him?' You thought.

You heard his voice down the hall. "______! Hurry up!"

You sighed. "Okay, coming!"

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

You sat on the couch with a bowl of popcorn in your hands. You hated scary movies, but, you knew Alfred did too, so you knew that this was going to be an interesting night.

"Okay, here we go!" Alfred said as he popped the movie into the DVD player. You took a quick glance at the cover. 'Saw 2…..great.' Alfred plopped down onto the couch next to you and dug his hand into the bowl of buttery good-ness. "This is gonna be awesome!" He sang as he scarfed down his popcorn. "Oh yeah. Totally." You said sarcastically, as you set the bowl of popcorn down on the table.

"Hm?" Alfred looked at you. "You mean you aren't having fun?" "Well, the movie hasn't even started yet, and I know how you get during these, so…."  He pouted. "How I get? What do you mean?" "Well you know…Alfred; you tend to get kind of…wussy during movies."  His facial expression changed, as he shouted dramatically; "I do not get wussy!! Look, we'll watch this, and I'll be perfectly fine!"  He went back to pouting as he pulled a pillow into his lap and hugged it tightly.

------------------------------------45 minutes later------------------------------------------------------------------

You looked over and saw that Alfred was trembling; he was visibly shaking as he watched the movie with intense eyes. Every time something would happen, Alfred would jump, or let out a little half shriek. He was determined to not let himself get too scared in front of you. You smiled silently to yourself as a thought came to mind. 'This is going to be fun.' You thought.

Alfred was so glued to the TV that he didn't notice when you had left the couch. You crept away, and a few minutes later, Alfred noticed your absence. Picking up the remote with a  shaky hand, he put the TV on pause and spoke.  "_-____?" Silence. "______, C-come on, this isn't funny… W-where are you…?"
Slowly you snuck up behind the couch, you leaned in close to Alfred and whispered; "Boo."

His scream was so loud you could have sworn you had gone deaf for a few minutes.
Before you knew what was happening, he jumped over the couch and landed on top of you. You were struggling under his weight, and when he realized just who he was on top of, he became crimson. "_-____! W-what are you doing?" "I-I just thought I'd surprise you, I didn't know you were going to freak out on me like that..." "Well, I'm sorry Alfred." He smiled. "That's alright. I would go through hell for you, ______." You blushed heavily and turned you head away from him.

"Alfred?"

"Yeah?"
"Do you think you can…get off of me now?" Alfred chuckled and stepped off of you, and pulled you up into a sitting position. "So, should we get back to the movie?" You asked. "No!" Alfred yelled. "Why not?" You started, teasing him. "Are you still scared?" "No…" Alfred said, looking away, rubbing the back of his head. "It's just; you know how I wanted you to come over, because I had an announcement? Well…I w-wanted to tell you that uh…" He reached into his pants pocket and took out a folded up sheet of paper and handed it to you.

You took it from him and opened it up. You held back a giggle as you stared at it.

It was a drawing, of what you assumed to be you, and what you had guessed to be Alfred, in a Superman outfit. There were hearts all around the drawing, and a short mass of letters underneath. It read; '______ I didn't know how to tell you this, and I know that you would be wowed by my amazing drawing skills, so here it is! I love you, I hope you feel the same way about me.'

You laughed when you were done reading it, and you looked back up at Alfred.  You planted a kiss upon his lips, and watched him turn red again. "I love you too, Alfred, and always will."
