Rachel and Tobias were invited to Jake and Cassie's annual Halloween costume party. Tobias was going as Zorro, but Rachel refused to tell Tobias her costume. But on the day of the party, Rachel became ill.

"You go anyway," she said. "I'll be fine."

Reluctantly, Tobias donned his Zorro costume and went off to the party.

A few hours later, Rachel felt much better and decided that she would go the party after all. Tobias didn't know what kind of costume she was wearing, so she could test him and see how he acted without her around.

When she arrived, the party was in full swing. She spotted Zorro right away—he was dancing with a buxom milkmaid. Then he had a couple of drinks with a sexy female vampire. Afterwards, he returned to the dance floor with a leggy blonde dressed in a parochial schoolgirl uniform.

After the dance, Rachel decided to test Tobias' fidelity. She sidled up to him and said, "Could you get a lady a drink?"

After a little chatter, they headed out to the dance floor. She whispered in his ear, "I don't suppose they have any empty bedrooms around here."

"I know they do," Zorro replied. "Let's go."

The two hurried upstairs and slipped into an empty bedroom.

"Keep the lights off and your mask on," Rachel said.

"Anything you say," Zorro answered.

After making love, Rachel kissed her masked lover and whispered him goodnight. Then she hurried home, hid her costume in the back of the closet, and climbed back into bed.

About an hour later, Tobias returned.

"How was the party?" she asked.

"Not so great," Tobias replied. "I really didn't have much fun without you."

"You're so sweet. So what did you do all this time? It's after one in the morning. That's a long time to be miserable at a party."

"Oh, I spent the night in the hot tub," Tobias replied. "Marco came without a costume, so I loaned him my Zorro outfit. He told me had a terrific time tonight."
