Halloween - a night to disguise yourself, to wear a mask, and a costume; to pretend to be someone you're not...or as the heroes called it 'Friday night'.

"What's this?" Ladybug sat side by side with Chat Noir, a sheet of paper in her hands containing a random list of names.

Bubeleh

Mon Cher

Mon Amour

Querido

"Okay, so I understand two of them but the other's I'm not sure..."

"It's what you're going to be calling me tonight, M'Lady." Chat Noir said, his eyes sparkling with amusement.

"Why am I calling you these names? What's wrong with Kitty, Chaton, Minou?" she asked in response.

"Those are Chat Noir's pet names, tonight you will be using Morticia's pet names for Gomez."

"What's a Morticia?"

Chat Noir burst out laughing before standing up and making his way over to the kitchen table, where he had not one but two suit bags resting on the counter top. Ladybug had been ecstatic when she found out Chat could be here with her, his visits had been sporadic over the past few weeks, only being able to come home on random days and at random times, so having him here was exciting. So exciting they were throwing a belated wedding party with the other Miraculous holders in their apartment.

"Morticia is my beautiful wife, Cara Mia."

"Cara Mia? Not Bugaboo?"

He burst out laughing bringing the outfits back to the sofa, laying them out in front of them.

Stretching forward, she grabbed the zip and painfully, slowly pulled it down to the bottom, pulling the fabric apart and looking at the outfit in front of her. She was squinting, her face showing nothing but panic as she opened the bag to find...

The most gorgeous dress.

It was coated in black lace, long and extremely fitting. She lifted it out the bag, holding it in front of her. The sleeves were flared, the neckline incredibly low, and a massive slit up the side of one leg.

"Did you design this?" As she turned it around, she noticed a glittering of sequins positioned over the lace flicking with the reflection of the sun. It was gorgeous, she couldn't deny it, but she also couldn't deny that he probably had other ideas when he went sourcing the garment.

"No, I found someone who worked on the designs for the film and they remade it in your size, with a slight modern enhancement."

"It's gorgeous. So what am I? A witch?" She watched as he physically facepalmed. "I don't know who she is, Chat," she giggled as he carried on his theatrics.

"She's from the Addam's family."

"Oooooh!" She'd seen that, she's sure she had. Maybe it was about 10 years ago, but she'd seen it. If she remembered rightly, Morticia was elegant, aloof, poised, deadpan, well-mannered; she was outspoken and fiercely protective, not too dissimilar to herself really. Gomez though? Well, she thought she could remember red roses and hand kisses (very Chat Noir), but that was about it.

"So, are we doing this in character? For our costumes of course, not these costumes," he pointed to his suit, "but these costumes." He pointed to his bags still in the kitchen and the exquisite dress in her hands; complete with Ladybug mask. Each outfit this evening was to be accompanied by their hero themed mask purchased in bulk from Amazon.

"Of course Kitty cat, when I do something I go all out."

She watched the smile take over his face, the smile which meant he had a plan, that he was up to no good and straight away she felt her eyebrows raise, her arms coming to cross in front of her body, as well as she could whilst holding the dress.

He held his hands up in front of him, his own eyes widening. The mischievous gleam fading but not disappearing.

"I swear I'm not going to do anything." Her eyes twitched at his words, and his hands dropped down by his side. "Cat's promise."

Rolling her eyes, she turned in the direction of their bedroom as he grabbed his own bag and ran towards the guest room. Both getting changed separately making sure their make up was exactly as it should be, hiding their identities but allowing them some freedom along with the kwamis. It was going to be an interesting evening.

"Welcome," Chat Noir opened the door to 'Carapace' and 'Rena' aka Nino and Alya, the former still having no idea he spilt their identities to the one and only Chat Noir back when they were 14.

"Nice place you have here, dude," Capace aka Jack Skellington held up his fist to bump Adrien's aka Gomez as Alya, aka Sally, followed in with a kiss on the hosts cheek.

Chat Noir was going to enjoy tonight. All holders were coming, Ladybug and himself selling it as their wedding party. He had placed a temporary dye onto his hair; parting it in the middle and combing it out to the sides. His face was coated in white with his black pencil moustache to match his hair; adding to the black mask he wore around his eyes similar to his other identity. He hadn't seen his wife yet, so he was guessing she was having some sort of crisis (internal or external) and wasn't ready to come out yet. Either that or she was watching YouTube videos to get into character.

He let his friends into the living area, professionally decorated to a high standard thanks to Ladybug's creativity. Cobwebs hanging from the ceilings, pumpkins settling on tables with candles inside and headless roses consuming the vases.

"Pumpkins! My loyal followers." Carapace made his way over to pumpkins, inspecting the different faces carved out of each. His two friends had dressed to impress and their facepaint was on point. Carapace's skeleton costume and face paint a perfect match for his ragdoll girlfriend, Sally.

"So, Jack, Sally, can I get you anything to drink?"

As Carapace made his way over to Chat Noir, he noticed Rena moving towards the bedroom, knocking on the door only for it to open slightly and Rena be pulled in. It seems she may have been struggling with her outfit more than he thought.

Almost an hour had passed and Chat was still wondering where Ladybug had got to. Since Rena had entered her room, neither had resurfaced.

"I'm sure they're just having a girlie chat," Carapace placed a wholly white hand on his shoulder, as Chat Noir watched the door wistfully. The apartment was now pretty crowded and yet his Lady wasn't by his side.

They had the whole range; from Shrek and Princess Fiona, to Jason and Michael Myers. There were the three witches from Hocus Pocus plus the girl from 'The Ring' who was chatting it up with a very brassed off Beetlejuice. Finishing the ensemble were Jekyll and Hyde, and Maleficent currently playing 'Eye Ball Pong'. Hyde getting increasingly annoyed with Maleficent's aim, as Jekyll attempted to give him some pointers.

Everyone was here, everyone was having fun and congratulating him...yet one significant person still hadn't made her appearance.

He made his way over to the girl from 'The Ring', and greeted the stoney face of his friend.

"Where's your wife?" Ever the social butterfly, Ryuko aka Kagami got right to the point asking where his wife was. He looked down at his ring instinctively, before answering her question. Hearing the word wife from his friends was something else, and the deep need to announce that Adrien Agreste was the first married overwhelmed him.

"She's just getting ready, I'm sure she'll be out in a minute or two." He responded, before turning to Beetlejuice, aka Viperion aka Luka. "So, what happens when I say your name three times?"

The guy swigged the remainder of his beer, his eyes remaining on Chat's as he did. What was Viperion's problem? It wasn't like he'd married his ex or something?

"I - um - how have you -" before Chat could finish, a squeal was heard over the other side of the room.

Turning his head he thought he'd died and gone to hell.

Standing there showing off her wedding ring was his wife. His horrifying Cara Bella, who pulled off Morticia Addams better than Anjelica Huston ever could. His heart rate smashed through the roof and as he looked from her deathly white face to the little slither of leg pushing through the skirt, he couldn't help but smile.

She was gorgeous and she was his.

Ladybug was stalking to and fro in their bedroom, Rena sitting on the bed.

"I don't get it?" Rena said, leaning back and resting on her palms as Ladybug continued her frantic march around the room. The beautiful room that her wonderful husband had set up for her, the new plush mattress to make sure she had the best night sleep possible 'because she deserved it' and the life sized Chat Noir body pillow 'for when he was away'.

"I'm going to ruin his night, Al, I'm a disaster! A complete disaster."

"Woah! Hold up girl." Rena pushed herself to get up off their bed before moving forwards and placing her hands on her shoulders.

"It's going to be fine. You're worrying about his reaction for no reason. He loves you! He doesn't care!"

Ladybug let out a low growl, stalking back to the mirror and looking herself over once more. The dress was incredible, the design, the fit...everything! It was her that was the problem; the social butterfly that was Ladybug was actually the mess of a clutz Marinette Dupain-Cheng.

"Come on Marinette, don't you think you're making too big a deal out of this?"

"Nope," she shook her head, grabbing her eyeliner to correct one of her eye wings. "He's so excited, if I can't -"

"You're Ladybug, of course you can. Did you watch the videos I sent you?"

"Yes."

"So there's no problem. He's not going to expect an Oscar worthy performance. Believe me, the way you look he wouldn't care if you were mute all night."

Ladybug let out a laugh, giving herself one last look in the mirror, a slight turn to the left and right noticing how her body seemed to have become more womanly over the past couple of months...or maybe that was just how she felt? She grabbed her Ladybug mask from the bedside table and slipped it on, completing her outfit.

"Who would have thought the day would come where Ladybug would fall head over heels for her partner?"

Ladybug smiled, Rena was right. She was completely absorbed in him, everything about him, and since their little rooftop experience they'd only grown closer; physically and mentally.

"Okay, I'm ready."

"Just remember 'Morticia Addams' is pretty much the same as Ladybug, except tonight you need to smile a little less."

"I don't know whether to be grateful or offended by that statement." She brushed her fingers through the extensions she'd taken an hour to clip in correctly, loving the length and making a mental note to try and grow out her own hair. "Let's do this."

Heading for the door, she yanked it open and made her way into the crowd. The first group spotting her being the Sanderson Sisters. Zoé, Rose and Juleka aka Vespira, Pigella and Purple Tigress, ran over to Ladybug and Rena squealing in excitement.

"Ladybug, show us the ring!" Pigella announced, Marinette quite sure she was Sarah Sanderson.

Holding her left hand out, a beaming smile on her face, the girls all squealed in harmonisation as they saw the pretty, spectacular ring from Chat Noir. She looked over to the side, automatically knowing that was where he was going to be and caught sight of his dark brown eyes, a different lens to match his outfit, and sighed. No matter what colour his eyes were; blue, green, brown, she just seemed to be absorbed in them more.

"I would marry Pegasus, kiss Juleka Couffaine and kill Reverser," Bunnyx announced to the room, taking her shot of water for completing the challenge.

"Okay, this is interesting," Purple Tigress mumbled, looking towards Pigella. "I would marry Princess Fragrance, kiss Rose Lavillant and kill Ladybug, sorry."

Ladybug shrugged, stretching forward for a jäger bomb the result of her being 'killed' as Purple Tigress took a shot of water.

"Don't worry about it. My Kitty would just take on the role and girls, you should all see him in my spots." She wiggled her eyebrows and downed as much of the drink as she could, Chat Noir was quite sure his night was going to be spent holding her hair up as she puked in the toilet. As amazing as she was, she could not hold shots.

"Caprikid, you're next." Minotaurox aka Ivan aka Shrek handed over the piece of paper to Nathaniel aka Michael Meyers, before returning back to Polymouse aka Myléne aka Princess Fiona...aka this was getting confusing.

Three hours into the party and it was fair to say Adrien wasn't going to remember much the next day. He'd had at least a bottle of wine, two beers and six of whatever the concoction was that King Monkey and Bunnyx had put into the 'Eye Ball Pong' glasses; and to say he was buzzing was an understatement; he was one drink away from throwing up, but he was having the best time of his life.

"Right, I would marry Reverser, kiss Marinette Dupain-Cheng and kill King Monkey, sorry man. I just find your power kinda useless." Caprikid announced, cringing as he looked over at King Monkey.

King Monkey leaned forward and grabbed a glass. "As much as I'd like to argue this statement, I've been eyeing these up for an hour." The group laughed as he lifted his glass in the air, "bottoms up!"

The crowd greeted him with a celebratory 'cheers', CapriKid a shot of water in hand.

"Okay, who's next?" Pegasus aka Max aka Jekyll asked, Ladybug waving her paper in the air, the last drink obviously pushing her past the line of happy drunk to accident prone drunk as she stood up, tripped over her dress and landed in Chat's lap, completing a movement of bending backwards and handing the paper to King Monkey aka Kim aka Hyde.

"Hey Kitty Cat, how about you give your Lady a kiss?"

"Ma Cara Bella, I would be honoured." He bent down, pressing his lips to hers as he took her in a slow deep, jäger bomb kiss. She tasted like aniseed and red bull, and although the mix with whatever taste was lingering in his mouth made him feel a little queasy, the overall kiss was blood pumping, his hand wandering down to her hip as her own headed for his cheek. The soft tender kiss suddenly increased in intensity becoming a full on makeout.

"You bewitched me, M'Lady." He said, grabbing her hand and peppering it with kisses all over.

"Get a room!" A voice was heard from the corner, as Ladybug climbed off his lap and he managed to catch a glimpse of a smiling Viperion drinking from a bottle of something.

King Monkey opened the paper and then looked to Ladybug. "You could have at least given me a challenge Bug. Kiss - Chloé Bourgeois," Vespira made a slight gagging sound in the corner as she stood from the sofa to get another drink, "Marry - Timebreaker, and kill - Bunnyx."

Chat Noir couldn't help the laugh that escaped his lips as he shared a look with his wife who was also displaying the same look of amusement. Oh, if only he knew he was marrying the person he wanted to kill.

"Bunnyx, you've gotta drink." Ladybug sang, a laugh leaving her lips only to be met by the roaring laughter from behind them. He reminded himself not to let Viperion drink anymore. The dude was so far gone, he seemed to have lost all self control.

King Monkey reached for his shot of water, as Bunnyx grabbed a jäger bomb, both clashing them together before drinking.

"Chat Noir, I've got yours." Purple Tigress aka Mary Sanderson, handed over a list of three names to Adrien, his eyes growing wide as he read down the list.

They were currently playing 'kiss, marry, kill' the halloween version, which involved a Miraculous hero, a civilian and an akumatized villain, Monarch was excluded from the choices; and wow they were coming up with some interesting ideas.

Opening his piece of paper he couldn't help but cringe:

Hero - Rena Rouge

Akuma - Volpina

Civilian - Marinette Dupain-Cheng

He looked towards Alya aka Rena Rouge, before looking at Ladybug and sighing out loud. This was going to go wrong anyway so he may as well watch it burn.

"Ok, kill Volpina, that's a no brainer. Kiss, um," he looked at Nino aka Carapace aka Rena's BOYFRIEND and gulped. Oh dear! "Rena Rouge."

"Bro!" Carapace exclaimed, giving Chat Noir a stink eye, as he looked towards Ladybug.

"And marry Marinette." He held up his hands in surrender only for Ladybug to giggle, the circle to gasp and Viperion to burst out laughing in the corner. But not just a normal laugh, oh no! He was crying, the white and black face paint running down his face as he slapped his thigh and attempted to breathe. What the hell was his problem?

Viperion stood up, stumbling over towards Ladybug and handed her a piece of paper.

"You two," he straightened up with a slight sway, the beer bottle in between his fingers sloshing from side to side as he used the same hand to point between them, before barking out laughing again and heading back to his corner head shaking.

Chat watched as Ladybug opened the paper, her eyes widening as she squealed and slammed it down in front of her.

"Oh, come on bug! You can't just ignore it."

"I don't know if this is a good idea, shall we play charades?" She went to stand up only for Rena to pull her back down, the panic on his Lady's face all the evidence he needed.

"M'Lady, you don't need to do that if you don't want to?"

"Woah, woah, woah! No!" Viperion said, holding his beer bottle aloft, "everyone else has answered theirs, I think she needs to show she's one of the team too. So Ladybug...answer the question."

Chat watched as she opened her paper again, a sigh leaving her lips.

"Fine," she wiggled her shoulders a little bit, "I would marry Adrien Agreste," the sound of 'ooo's rang through the apartment and Chat's face suddenly turned it's temperature up to five thousand, thank god for the white face paint or he was quite sure he'd look more like the devil than Gomez Addams.

"I would kiss Aspik."

"Who's Aspik?" Chat Noir asked, his eyebrows creasing, only for Viperion to once again start howling in the corner.

"He's Adrien Agreste," the laughing hero said, everything becoming even more humorous to him.

"And I would kill..." she turned her head to look at Viperion lazing around in the corner. "You!"

The snake hero swigged the rest of his beer before placing it down. "Honestly," he said wiping under his snake styled mask, "you two should be comedians or actors or something because..." he started to clap. "Bravo!"

Ladybug was hammered. Not tipsy, not happy...dead drunk; but she was also having the time of her life.

"Oh my God, I love this tune!"

After their kiss, marry, kill game they moved onto would you rather? Before people started to leave. Chat (bless his cotton socks) had even made everyone a little party bag to take home with them. The guy really was as sweet as they came; he was also really sexy, even with the black hair and painted on 'tash.

Two large hands grabbed her waist and pulled her backwards into a hard masculine body, each of her curves married into the solid ridges in the most perfect combination. She knew this body like the back of her hand, and she couldn't wait for everyone to leave so she could explore it more.

"Dance with me, Cara Bella."He bent down and whispered in her ear, grabbing her arm and peppering kisses from the wrist up to her shoulder.

Chat spun her around, bringing her body flush against his as he began to move them around to the music.

'I took an arrow to the heart, I never kissed a mouth that tastes like yours

Strawberries and somethin' more, Ooh yeah, I want it all'

Holding her in a strong ballroom hold a familiarity coursed through her as they moved effortlessly in a box step, Chat leading her so precisely and effortlessly. Moving the hand he was linked to over his neck, she found herself grasping on before he swung her around in a lean, lifting one of her legs around his waist he grasped her bare flesh through the slit on her dress, the move causing an electric shock through her heart.

He pulled her back into his chest as he moved them about the room; her clumsiness only taking out a lamp and a photo frame so far.

'Ooh, I love it when you do it like that

And when you're close up, give me the shivers

Oh baby, you wanna dance 'til the sunlight cracks

And when they say the party's over, then we'll bring it right back'

He dipped her into a low hold, Carapace calling over to him and throwing something, something which he placed in his mouth. She looked up to see his lighter lips placed tightly around a red rose. Where he got it from was news to her? Hadn't she beheaded them all?

He stood her up, his eyebrows wiggling as he continued their movements around the room, pulling her body close into his; before taking the rose and slipping it into her hair. Grabbing her wrist tenderly, he kissed from her knuckles all the way up to her shoulder before trailing back down to her fingers.

"I love you, Cara Mia."

"I love you too, mon amour."

Holding her close, he bent his head down and took her in a slow deep kiss; one that made her toes curl and head want to explode. Her red lipstick began to smudge over his face as the kiss deepened and became more intense, the room fizzing away to nothingness as it all became about them. She could taste the lingering remains of whatever King Monkey and Bunnyx had came up with, the sharp tangy taste not even being a distraction to what she was doing, whilst her hands searched for something to anchor herself on and choosing his gelled, crispy hair. She'd been desperate to run her fingers through his hair without gloves, though this was not in the slightest how she expected it to feel.

He broke the kiss, giving her a quick lick across her lower lip; the feeling strange yet not horrible.

"Shall we go to bed, M'Lady?"

"What happened to our nicknames? Mon Cher?"

"I want M'Lady in M'bed." He dropped her a wink sending her in a spiral of girlish giggles. Both heading towards their bedroom door, hand in hand and full of spirits that weren't just the spiritual kind.

The door slammed closed behind them, the rest of the party heroes remaining staring at the closed door.

"I'm guessing we'll see ourselves out then?" King Monkey announced to the wooden object. Heading towards the main door, Pegasus, Bunnyx, Carapace and Rena holding up a very drunk Viperion.

"The party's not over yet, it's just moved rooms." The latter said, trying to move back towards the main part of the apartment.

"I don't think we're invited to this one, Snake Boy." Carapace stated, restricting the time hero from heading towards the after party.

"But, they're still partying!"

"They're having a private party, you moron," Bunnyx sighed, a slight huff in her voice as she walked back and yanked Viperion out of the room.

It was certainly a night to remember.
