Hi, everyone. I feel guilty for not posting anything lately.
Anyway, I didn't write this – it was done by my friend, Brenna. (I know it's not Halloween, but whatever.) She's just too lazy to GET HER OWN GODDAMN FANFICTION ACCOUNT and post this herself, so she asked me to do it. And how could I say no? She's my friend, and I think this piece is as funny and well-written as it is short and sweet.
Neither she nor I own KHR.

You are cordially invited to attend the 13th annual
Vongola Family Halloween Party
Oct 31, 8:00pm
Sawada residence
*costumes required
Gokudera scanned the invitation gleefully. He loved being at the Tenth's house, and the fact that there was going to be a party there made him all the more happy. Only one problem: he had nothing to wear. He supposed he could just do something lame and go in his own clothes – say he was himself in 10 minutes or whatever – or maybe a sheet with holes cut in it. But this was Juudaime's party. No way could he show up in some half-assed, thrown-together outfit. But he had no money and hardly any time to go out and buy something. After all, the party was tonight! He could dress up like his beloved Juudaime. After all, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, right? Nah, that was a little too weird, even for him. WAIT! He had forgotten all about the birthday money Shamal had given him. He hadn't had time to spend it yet because Shamal had given it to him late as usual (that man just could not comprehend that Gokudera's birthday was SEPTEMBER 9th, not October). He checked the clock: four hours until the party. Gokudera grabbed his coat, grabbed the money and sprinted out the door. He stopped at all the Halloween stores in the area, but they were picked clean. "Well, what did you expect?" he asked himself. "The stores aren't going to restock the day of Halloween."
Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted a plastic princess tiara and a tangled shoulder length blonde wig. Suddenly, an idea came to him. It was perfect! He was sure it would be a hit and probably one of the scariest costumes there. "How much for the wig and the crown?"
One hour later, "Belphegor" sauntered into the Sawada household where the party was in full swing. He spotted Tsuna through the crowd wearing a (strangely appropriate) fish costume. "Juudaime, there you are! Hey do you like my costume? U-shee-shee-shee-shee."
"Oh, yeah, it's great Gokud – I mean, 'Belphegor.'"
"And your costume is amazing, too! Juudaime really embodies the essence of a fish!"
"…Thanks, Gokudera-kun…"
Suddenly, the door burst open. "Ushishishishi~. Who decided to have a party and not invite me?"
Gokudera's complexion suddenly became 5 shades paler.
"And who is this imposter who thinks he can use the prince's likeness without permission, hmmm? Maybe I ought to carve some sense into him."
Gokudera let out a squeal bested in pitch only by the ones frequently emitted by the Vongola Decimo, and fled from the room.
…
"So," remarked Tsuna, "Great costume, Yamamoto. And your Belphegor impersonation is really coming along great."
"Thanks," replied the imposter, "I've been practicing."
