Title: Halloween Ball
Author: therubyone
Summary: This short story was based on the intro to the Season 3 episode The Drake and Josh Inn, from which I created the drabble presented below as Chapter 1. Drake and Josh attend a Halloween party at the Megadome, sometime between Season 2 and Season 3. Here's a glimpse at one of the incidents they talked about (and I wished they had shown)!

Chapter 1. - Introduction (The Drabble)
Halloween Ball, Drake and Josh, Drake/Josh, prompt: nail polish, implied slash, Rated PG
"Hold still, I'm almost finished" commanded Josh, applying nail polish to Drake's squirming fingertips. "Here's some lipstick."
"I can't believe you're making me do this."
"A bet's a bet!"
"But we TIED," Drake whined.
"I'm wearing the killer-clown-from-outer-space costume - despite my morbid fears!"
"But the mask covers your whole head. I'm all exposed here."
"You've got black tights on."
"And a green-sequined mini-dress!"
"You look gorgeous." Josh plopped a wig onto Drake's head.
"How do girls walk in these shoes? More important: what if somebody tries to grab my ass?"
"They'll have one big scary clown to deal with!"
