They decided to meet at Lou's place and take an Uber to the party. Debbie's sitting on the hood of her car waiting for Lou to come down. After the normal 15 minute (at least) wait Lou comes out the door.

"I can always count on you to be-" Debbie cuts herself off as she takes a full look at Lou's costume.

Lou is wearing, possibly, the tightest black leather pants ever made. Candy red leather stilettos, a tight off the shoulder black top, and a black leather jacket with a belt attached. Her hair was curly and teased with maybe an entire bottle of hairspray to keep it in place. She had on red hoop earrings that she could've probably worn as a bracelet if she chose to.

She locks her door and while holding a smile she stops on the sidewalk a couple feet away from Debbie. She pulls out a cigarette and holds in her fingers, but doesn't light it.

"So, what do you think, stud?" Adding emphasis on the last word.

"Olivia Newton-John has nothing on your Sandra Dee."

Lou rakes her eyes over Debbie's costume. Debbie was wearing black leggings and a long sleeved top that could've been a second skin, cat ears and black pumps, and perfect cat eye makeup. She comes very close to Debbie and says to her in a low voice, "do you scratch or… do you bite?"

"You'll find out soon enough."

"Can't you just tell me now?"

"Play your cards right and I'll do you one better, I'll show you."

And just then their ride showed up making Lou suddenly wish she'd never confirmed her appearance at the party.

They made their way into the club and through a crowd that normally wasn't so big, but this place was known for their amazing Halloween parties.

"Let's go get some drinks?" Lou says loudly.

Debbie nods and Lou leads the way. As they wait for their drinks to be delivered someone accidentally bumps into Debbie sort of knocking her into Lou. She wraps her arms around Lou's shoulder to keep from falling as Lou holds her at the waist to steady her. Two tumblers and two shots are placed in front of them. They both down the shots desperately not wanting to look away from each other's eyes.

As they move through the crowd, drink in hand, they move away from the main dance floor up the stairs into the lounge area.

"This place is packed."

"Yeah, they're always at full capacity on Halloween."

"Do you come every year?"

"No, not every year, but every couple of years I do. Haven't been in a while though."

"I usually stay home around Halloween."

"Scared of ghosts and witches, are you?"

"No" Debbie smiles. "Sometimes, my friend Tammy, throws a Halloween party for the kids in her neighborhood so I maybe help her out with that."

"That sounds insane. A dozen kids hopped up on sugar running around while eating more candy? You're braver than I thought."

"Speaking of brave, I recall someone making a promise to reward me if I was brave and went on the death boat with her."

"What did you have in mind? Another penguin?"

"Nuh uh, you made the promise so now you have to come up with the prize. I've already fulfilled my end of the deal."

Lou leans in so she can whisper in her ear, "I can think of a few things that will leave you satisfied" and leans back onto her seat.

How Debbie will make it through this party she doesn't know.

At around 2:30 in the morning the Uber drops the two off at Lou's place.

"Come on, I have a spare room you can stay in. You're in no condition to drive."

"Drive? I'm in no condition to walk." As she says this Debbie missteps and nearly falls as Lou catches her. They both laugh as Lou struggles to place her key in the lock.

Debbie plops down on Lou's couch and Lou joins her a second later. "God, I'm starving."

"I don't think I have anything in the refrigerator. Wanna order something?"

"Let me! I know this great 24 hour diner a few blocks over."

Not even half hour later they sat on the floor in between Lou's couch and coffee table eating a classic drunk meal: burgers and fries.

"Did you see that one guy dressed in a brown trench coat with wings and a halo?"

"Yeah, what was he supposed to be?"

"Holy shit." Debbie absolutely LOSES it. "Get it?"

Lou is now certain that the sound of Debbie's laughter could instantly make her happy no matter what.

"Oh!" Debbie gets up surprisingly fast considering she's still a bit tipsy and grabs her purse, "it's past midnight so it's officially Halloween so we have to watch a scary movie." Debbie puts the DVD into the player as Lou turns on the television.

Debbie sits back down, both on the couch now, and snuggles up to Lou, "I need to sit close to you in case I get scared."

Halfway through the movie and they're both deep in conversation recalling stories of Halloweens past.

"One year when I was 7, I think, I went to a Halloween party and when I went bobbing for apples my loose tooth got stuck to the apple so when I came up for air I had blood all over my mouth. I started crying and screaming and so did all the kids. No one else was allowed to go bobbing for apples anymore because I turned the game into a biohazard."

"My first Halloween in the states I was broke as shit so I didn't have candy for the trick or treaters. My roommate had gone to a party and I stayed home. He said to just hang a sign on the door that said 'ran out of candy' and so I did, but either someone took it down or it got blown out the hallway window. Which meant I had all these children coming to my door and asking for candy and I didn't wanna turn them away so I gave them all instant cup noodles. And since I was broke that meant I'd just given away my dinner for nearly two weeks."

"Oh my God!" Debbie laughed, "what did you do?"

"After two nights my roommate noticed I wasn't eating dinner and asked why and I told him. After he finished laughing he promised not to let me starve to death."

"Well, I'm glad he fed you and kept you alive." She picks up Lou's hand, laces their fingers and rests both their hands on her thigh.

Lou strokes her hand with her thumb. "Me too."

The two share a look and both lean in slowly for a kiss. The kiss is slow, sensual and intense. Both women wanting to let the other know how much they wanted them. Lou slowly brings her hand up to place on the back of Debbie's neck. Debbie remembers Lou's off the should top and takes full advantage of the access she has to her shoulders and neck.

She kisses down her neck, across her shoulder and just where her shoulder meets her arm Debbie gives her a small bite. Nothing hard, just enough to get her attention. Lou looks at her half amused, but fully aroused.

"To answer your question from earlier," she whispers against Lou's ear, "I bite."

Lou lets out a low and seductive moan that leaves Debbie almost dizzy. Lou pulls her over so Debbie can straddle her. "It's not wise to start something you can't finish."

"Can't finish? If there's one thing I do very, very well it's closing a deal." Debbie winks at Lou.

"Yeah? Prove it."

To this day Debbie Ocean hasn't backed down from a challenge and she's not about to start now.

Debbie kisses Lou. Not slow or soft like before. Debbie wants Lou and she wants her to know. She pulls Lou's bottom lip with her teeth slightly as they both pull away from the kiss breathing heavily.

Lou slips her left hand under Debbie's shirt and makes contact with her skin. She moves that same hand and places it flat on Debbie's back. Her other hand she slips into Debbie's dark head of hair, closes it in a fist and gives her hair a slight tug to give her access to her neck.

Debbie let's out a surprised gasp. Lou kisses her and as she does she scratches Debbie's back nearly sending her to the ground as she leans into the blonde's hand.

"If you bite then that means I get to scratch."

Debbie hooks her finger at the front of Lou's top pulling it out so she could look down into it. Lou's hands automatically go up and Debbie slips her top off. To say Lou is beautiful is an understatement. Debbie could stare at her all night, chest bare, and still not run out of ways to tell her just how beautiful she is. But right now Debbie didn't want to talk. She would be using her mouth, but in ways that would make words come out of Lou's mouth.

She didn't waste any time. Took one of Lou's nipples in her mouth as she began kneading her other breast. She sucked on one and pinched the other, the opposite sensations causing Lou to just about whimper.

"Oh, fuck."

She smiles and lightly bites it before she begins to kiss a trail between her breasts upwards until she's back at the blonde's mouth speaking against her lips.

"What was that, I didn't hear you."

Wanting to wipe that smug smile off of Debbie's face Lou looks her in the eyes and says three words Debbie can't argue with.

"Take it off."

Debbie feels Lou undo her bra as her shirt is going over her head. And just as her shirt is coming off she feels Lou's tongue on her nipple. She holds onto Lou's shoulders with one arm and the other around a head of blonde hair.

Debbie knew there couldn't possibly be any sensation better on this Earth than that of Lou's mouth on her body. She had had plenty to drink that night but right now she was drunk on another feeling that she was sure only Lou could give her.
