This is my entry for the
Literotica 2021 Halloween Story Contest
. All characters engaged in sexual situations are above the age of eighteen. I'm a new author here and still just getting my sea legs so any rough spots in my writing mechanics or storytelling are purely my own responsibility. Comments and constructive criticism are welcome, just please don't be a douchebag about it. We're all just doing this for fun, after all. All that being said; on with the story about a fun, sexy married couple and an equally fun and sexy -- and quite mysterious -- Halloween visitor. I hope you enjoy.
When the Seelie Fae Come Knockin'
It was The Big Night, and for once both my wife and I were in the house to greet the Trick Or Treaters. Our eleven-year-old daughter, Eve, was out TOT'ing with some friends and their parents and would be spending the night at a slumber party. Terri and I were looking forward to a rare night alone and were currently having fun toying with the kids as they came to our door. The kids especially liked when Terri did the greeting, as she was a teacher at our local elementary school and they already had a warm relationship with her. The flow of loot-seekers was slowing to an occasional trickle and it looked like we would soon be shutting down for the evening. I was in the kitchen getting a cold drink when the doorbell rang.
"Trick or Treat!" The sweet, piping little-girl voice was instantly followed by a gale of laughter from my wife.
"Jake! Come in here!"
I entered the living room where Terri leaned against wall next to the front door, shaking her head and silently laughing. The wee darling stood in the doorway with an ear-to-ear grin, looking up at my wife and turning around to beam at her mother on the porch.
Her costume was a downward-pointing cone of fabric that was airbrushed with various whorls of blue, white and gray winding around it. Some white puffy material -- probably that stretchy cobweb stuff you have to pull apart for Halloween decoration -- was likewise tacked to the fabric for texture. The top was some sort of hoop or foam disk that sat atop her shoulders, below her chin, and was also topped by puffy white. And attached to the costume, in random places all over, were heads, tails, and fins of little plush toy sharks. Her sleeves were long shark sock puppets and her face peered out of the mouth of a big goofy shark mask. I grinned from the archway and did a loud, slow clap. One of my favorite bad movies of all time had come to life in our living room.
We rewarded the adorable Sharknado girl with several full-size candy bars and I threw in a handful of quarters to boot; she was clearly the best costume of the night. We gushed over her costume and sent her whirling along her way with a huge, proud smile. Another happy and satisfied customer. After 20 minutes or so of quiet we decided to call it a night. Terri gave me a warm and happy hug and kiss. Interacting with the kids on Halloween was her favorite holiday activity of the year.
The neighborhood kids loved her, and she loved them back. She'd been heavily involved in theater since grade school, performing in every play she could. She loved to perform, and her enthusiasm for make-believe just naturally radiated into the kids and encouraged them to do the same. Playtime with Evie was like watching fantasy worlds unfold into existence. Terri nurtured imagination and, while always being careful to point out the difference between fantasy and reality, encouraged imaginary play to be unfettered.
Much to my eternal marital bliss, this quality extended far beyond the world of innocent youth. Her adult play was equally creative. I had never been into role-play; to me it just felt silly and awkward. But Terri reveled in it. Bless her soul; she never assigned me a role to play during sexy time and expected me to live up to it. No, she'd just do her own thing and I'd passively get swept up in it and assume the role naturally. She'd be the naughty schoolgirl, alternately misbehaving and submissively begging for lenience until eventually I would feel myself become the strict disciplinarian teacher or principal, extracting atonement from her nubile teenage body. Or she was the incompetent employee, willing to do anything to keep her job, and I became the domineering asshole boss forcing her to pleasure me.
She could just eventually draw the games out of me; she's quite the actress and her enthusiastic, earnest performances would just sweep me up. It's magical. It's one of the main reasons I love her so much. We both deal with mundane life every day, but Terri can make life fun and adventurous just by deciding that it's time to do so. And the fact that she's sexy as fuck doesn't exactly hurt.
But even beyond that, she'd set up these little scenarios just for the fun of acting. She'd play pranks on me, or serve dinner in character as a gum-chewing bimbo truck stop waitress, or dress up to give elaborate game-show prize-babe reveals for the Amazon package that arrived before I got home from work. She just liked performing. And I ate it up.
So... the good part... I know, you're like, "Jake, cut to the chase. What does she look like?" Okay, I'm getting to that. Terri is five foot five, with thick, raven-black, shoulder-length shaggy hair, and big, dark brown eyes that are like bottomless pools of liquid love. Her face is soft and full, and when she smiles -- which is often -- her cheeks dimple adorably. As for frame, I'm sure some guys would call her plump or chubby, but I wouldn't go that far. I would acquiesce to describing her as thick -- or thicc, as the kids are calling it nowadays -- just to differentiate her from slim or athletic-looking. But I prefer to think of her as All Woman. Shapely legs and thighs, generous round bottom, more than generous beautiful bust, and proportional curved tummy that suggests a taste for the good life without sagging into the "dunlop" stage. Not that I recoil in horror from women that cross those lines to some extent; she knows my taste for curvy females and knows I would be more than happy to spend some hot naked time with a bigger woman. But she also knows that I'd be just as happy to spend that time with a petite, tiny-titted waif as well. I like women. Sue me.
Tonight, Halloween, she was wearing her Elvira dress, but with a white ruffled lace dickie and red-ribbon choker that concealed her bounteous cleavage; of course, kids, family friendly and all that. The previous weekend however, at the company Halloween party, she went full-out Elvira, Mistress of the Dark. Her cleavage was not just on full display but boosted by a specialty shelf bra that would probably earn her a fine if she wore it in public. Despite her own naturally black and fairly bushy hair, she got the appropriate bouffant wig with waist-length hair befitting the character. She'd spent hours on YouTube studying Elvira's speech and mannerisms in preparation for the party, and when the date rolled around she had the character pretty well nailed.
At first, every male eye was glued to her (or at least to her tits) and the wives were eyeing her with harsh glares, but Terri-- God bless her -- spent most of her time talking with the wives, staying in character the whole time, and had them rolling with laughter. She had all the mannerisms down; the head tosses, the confused looks, the silent laughter; the whole campy, trampy, valley-girl shebang. When the wives warmed up to her, she started flirting outrageously with the husbands, but in that same over-the-top, clumsy way, all the while maintaining a connection with the women. She was pretty much the hit of the party, and when we left -- Terri hanging onto my arm -- I could see the envy in a lot of the guys' eyes. That night was good for the ol' male ego, let me tell you.
But I digress. It had been a good 15 or 20 minutes since the Sharknado had menaced our porch and we went outside to look for any evidence of remaining costumed bandits. All the other houses had doused their porch lights and turned off their projectors and inflatables, so we decided it was time to call it a night. Terri flicked off the porch light and gathered up the digital camera and skulls from the outdoor table while I walked to the tree that held our projector. I pulled the plug and our singing jack-o-lanterns went silent in the middle of "Grim Grinning Ghosts" and became ordinary pumpkins, sleeping in the shadows. I carried the projector and extension cord inside while she went to fetch the third camera out in the yard which had recorded the TOT'ers approaching the house. When our valuables were all inside we locked the door and started deciding on the next steps of our rare and treasured night alone together.
She sauntered up to me and wrapped her arms around my waist, beaming up at me. I bent down and our lips met in a gentle, leisurely kiss. She rested the side of her face against my chest. "So... what are we going to watch tonight?" The post-treater Halloween movie was tradition for us.
"Well..." My mind went over my list of favorite Halloween movies. "We've got Trick or Treat , Halloween of course, The Thing, Trick 'R Treat (the anthology), It, Creepshow..."
She looked up into my eyes. "I want to watch Ghost."
I tried -- and failed -- to suppress a smirk and rolled my eyes. This earned me a punch in the arm and a pouty frown. Terri knew my opinion on the film; I felt it was just a sappy chick-flick. But she loved it, and of course Patrick Swayze was a total panty-moistener for her. My disregard for the movie was mostly feigned; it always put her in a warm and romantic mood, which, for Terri, required only a bit of skilled, seductive nudging to guarantee a night of hot, passionate lovemaking. And I was most certainly down for that, which is why I never argued the choice and always conceded. Hey, I'm no dope. When you're married to a sex machine -- and I am -- You don't look a gift horse in the mouth. You saddle up and ride when the opportunity presents.
I gave her a quick kiss on the forehead and turned toward the kitchen. "I'll start the popcorn, you find the DVD. Drink?"
"White wine'll be fine, babe."
I got 2 glasses out of the cabinet and pulled a magnum of pinot grigiot from the chiller. I then put a medium saucepan on the stove, found its lid, and went searching for the oil, butter, and bag of popcorn kernels. None of that microwave shit in this household; we have standards here.
