The rarest thing in the Addams family

Disclaimer: I don't own the Addams family, they are a creation of Charles Addams, I just do this for fun.

It was the 2nd of October, the day of cousin Lumpy's birthday ball. It was 6 o clock and Morticia and Gomez were preparing themselves. Gomez was putting the final touch to his hair while Morticia stood before the bedroom mirror looking at her long black dress that she bought for this ball. She nodded in agreement and sat down at the make-up table. She wanted to reach for the brush but his hand was faster

"Let me do it…" He started to comb her hair "you look ravishing"

"Merci…" she teased

"Oh Tish" He began to kiss her shoulder and continued to kiss his way up to her neck. She patted his cheek "Later darling, we need to go" He moaned in agreement but still continued kissing her neck.

"Gomez…" She tried to say it with a strict tone but she couldn't keep the smile away. He sighed as he backed away.

"Yes later…" She rose from her chair and wrapped her arm trough his arms and they walked out the room. Downstairs everybody was ready, Pugsley was dressed in a white costume with vertical black stripes, and Wednesday had a black dress a bit similar to her mothers, Fester wore his long jacket but in black and with golden buttons. When they were all gathered they went outside to the car and departed to the ball.

They arrived at the ball, Lumpy had rented a hall somewhere outside of town. Lurch parked the car and he opened the car door. Wednesday was the first to go out followed by Joe and Pugsley. When the last one got out of the car, they all went to the entrance. They were greeted by Lumpy himself and went inside. When they arrived at the enormous ballroom everyone went their own way. Pugsley went with Fester to the snack-table while Joe was forced by Wednesday to dance with her. Gomez decided he would do the same as his daughter and her boyfriend and went to his wife who was speaking with one of his thousand cousins.

"Querida?" she turned around to face him. "Can I have this dance?" He asked her.

"I would love to!" His face lightened up "…but your cousin Ivan just asked me to dance" and his face dropped while Ivan took her hand and led her to the dance floor where they began to dance. "Okay maybe later then" he murmured to himself.

The hours ticked away, it was almost time to go home so Gomez decided to try one more time to get his wife with him on the dance floor, "35th time's the charm" He stepped to her but stopped when he saw that cousin Itt went to the dance floor with her. He just sighed.

Eventually it was time to go, they say there goodbye's to everyone and went outside to the car that was waiting for them. The ride home was calm; they only had 3 narrow accidents. Wednesday laid in Joe's arms while Gomez and Morticia, in the back, did the same, well Morticia did because Gomez just looked outside the window.

"Oh Gomez, It was a define ball, don't you think?" She didn't get a reply and looked up so she could see her husband's face "Gomez?..." He snapped out of it"Did you say anything?"

"Yes, I asked you about your opinion of the ball" "Oh, that, well It was good, I think" "Gomez? What's wrong?" "Nothing" was his dry answer while he shrugged and removed his arm from her back; she sat up and looked at him with a questioning look.
