"Hold still, you doof!" Jack giggled, placing his hand on Mark's cheek.

"It feels so weird!" Mark whined and chuckled.

"If you wanna get there on time, stop whining." Jack pecked Mark's lips. Mark peeked open his eye, just to look at Jack's adorable face so close to his. "Keep your eyes closed!" Jack nuzzled their noses together.

"But you're so handsome!" Mark whined.

"You must be fucking blind." Jack rolled his eyes.

"Aw, don't say that! You're beautiful." Mark kissed Jack quickly.

"Mark, I'm dressed like the Joker and I have a face full of makeup." Jack giggled.

"You're still handsome." Mark smiled adorably.

"Done!" Jack backed away. Mark turned and looked in the mirror at the blue and red makeup around his eyes. Just under his right eye Jack drew a little heart with eyeliner.

"I look gorgeous." Mark joked, making faces at the mirror. He wasn't wearing any other makeup than the eyeshadow around his eyes, but he still felt odd wearing makeup.

"You do." Jack hummed and lay his chin on Mark's head. He was wearing full Joker makeup and the costume he made himself to replicate what he wore in the movie. Mark remembered the awkward trip to Hot Topic to buy his 'Daddy's Little Monster' T-shirt. "We better get going. We're supposed to meet Molly and Felix in twenty minutes, and it's a fifteen minute drive." Jack bent down and kissed Mark's lips. They walked out the back door and down the stairs to their car.

"Tonight is gonna be awesome!" Mark grinned and started the car.

"Yeah, but it's gonna be difficult for me because I can't kiss you on the cheek because I'll get lipstick on your cheek and if I kiss your head I'll get a mouthful of hairspray." Jack lay his head on the headrest and looked at Mark. Mark wore his 'Daddy's Little Monster' shirt, red and blue pants, and his hair was sprayed at the top fading from blue to red.

"Aw, poor little Jackaboy is sad that he forced me to be Harley Quinn so he could be the Joker." Mark pouted, making Jack giggle. "I love you." Mark leaned over and puckered his lips. Jack giggled and kissed him.

"I love you, too."

"THIS IS HALLOWEEN, THIS IS HALLOWEEN!" Jack and Felix shouted along with the blasting music. There was a huge Halloween Festival invading the streets of uptown L.A.. Everyone was dressed up, every building was decorated, and the streets were crowded with people. Jack and Felix were headbanging along with a rock remix of This is Halloween, while Mark and Molly watched helplessly while they waited for funnel cake.

"Oh god, now I have a headache." Jack giggled and leaned into Mark.

"That's what you get for being an idiot." Molly laughed as she payed for two funnel cakes. She handed one to Mark and Jack as she opened her own box and started ripping pieces off and shoving the dessert into her mouth.

"Guys, Halloween drinking game. Every time you see someone dressed as Harley Quinn, take a drink." Felix joked. Molly and Jack laughed, and Mark grinned and rolled his eyes. "Bonus shot if they don't have the boobs for it." Felix nudged Mark. Jack and Molly giggled stupidly and Mark pretended to be offended.

They turned a street corner and saw a karaoke booth. Tons of people were waiting in line and recording their friends trying to sing.

"Man, I'd love to do karaoke, but I'm afraid people will recognize me and make fun of me on the internet." Jack giggled.

"They'd make fun of you because you'd sing some emo Twenty Øne Piløts song." Felix joked.

"It's sad because it's true." Jack wiped away a fake tear and laughed.

While Mark was wandering and looking around, a teenage girl dressed like Harley Quinn tapped on Jack's shoulder. "Excuse me, can you help me for just a second?" She asked quietly.

"Sure, what's up?" Jack turned to her.

"So I have this friend that lives in England, and I wanna convince her that I have a boyfriend. Can.you take a picture with me?" She held out her phone.

"Of course!" Jack laughed. "Uh, my friend can take the picture?" Jack shrugged and motioned Felix over. The girl handed Felix her phone and stood next to Jack. Jack thought for a moment before dipping her and grinning at the camera. The girl giggled and smiled for the picture. Felix handed back her phone as Jack stood her back up.

"Thank you so much!" She laughed.

"No problem! Now I gotta go find my Harley Quinn..." Jack looked around. "There he is!" Jack shouted and ran off.

"He?" The girl muttered in confusion before wandering off.

"It was so cool to meet you! Can I get-" Some stranger was talking to Mark, but was suddenly interrupted by Jack jumping on Mark's back for a piggy back ride.

"WHAT THE FU-"
"Guess who!~" Jack held his hands over Mark's eyes, interrupting his shocked screeching.

"Jack." Mark regained his balance as a smile spread across his face.

"How did you know?" Jack gasped in mock surprise as he uncovered Mark's eyes.

"You interrupted my conversation." Mark turned back to the grinning fangirl.

"Hello, nice to meet'ya." Jack held out his hand and Mark rolled his eyes.

"Are you Jack? The guy Mark talked about in his vlog?" The asked excitedly.

"I'd hope so. I'm the one and only Jack for Markimoo." Jack wrapped his arms around Mark's neck and lay his head on top of Mark's.

"Ohmygod, your voice is so cute." She hid her grin behind her hand.

"Ohmygod, thank you." Jack mocked jokingly. "I like your pins." Jack pointed to the rainbow lanyard she was wearing covered in several LGBT+ pins. "What are you dressed up as?" Jack asked.

"I'm not dressed up, I just came here to scare homophobes." The girl shrugged.

"Dude, same." Jack giggled. "I mean, I'm dressed up, but I'm sure homophobes are gonna be pissed that Mark is dressed like Harley Quinn."

"Can I get a picture with you guys?" She turned on the front facing camera on her phone. Jack grinned and hugged Mark tightly as he looked into the camera. With how much makeup he was wearing, he didn't even look like himself. "Thank you so much!" The girl thanked the two.

After a few more hours of haunted houses, goofing off, and lots of pictures, Mark and Jack decided to head home. They flopped onto the bed together, completely exhausted.

"Tonight was pretty great." Jack chuckled softly.

"Are you gonna take your makeup off?" Mark tilted his head to Jack.

"Maybe sometime tomorrow." Jack turned on his side to face Mark. They stared at each other lovingly for a few minutes, just admiring each other's beauty, despite the melting makeup and tired faces. Jack softly kissed Mark's lips and closed his eyes. Mark slowly kissed back, lifting his hand to stroke Jack's side. They kissed slowly and passionately, running their hands over each other lovingly and reveling in warmth. Finally, Jack pulled away and half opened his tired eyes. "You look good in red." Jack commented, brushing his thumb over the red lipstick smeared over Mark's mouth.

"You think I look good in everything." Mark smirked.

"True." Jack hummed, allowing himself to drift slowly to sleep in Mark's arms.
