The wind blew cold and unforgiving, a goosebumps dancing up your arm in meticulous patterns while Tamaki's messed hair blew back in the wind, stray strands from his hair under his beanie was in attempting a dire escape.}

{The warmth of oranged street lights from behind clashed with the bright white of the markets doors opening to your presence, the shrieks of children hurry home after trick - or - treating and laughter of admiring parents swallowing the atmosphere.}
