This is my entry for the 2016 HALLOWEEN STORY CONTEST 2016. I have never entered one of these contests before but I thought it might be fun.
I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I've enjoyed writing it. If any editors out there have comments or suggestions I'd be happy to hear your thoughts as well.

Penny Zhang was married and happily so for a few years now. One of the best things about her marriage was that her husband and her had a great sex life. They were adventurous to try new positions and new situations. Recently Penny had mentioned to her husband that she was interested in trying bondage. Not the kind where the girl is completely incapacitated but where she was given the feeling of being helpless. She wanted be "taken" to be overpowered and for him to take full control of her.
She had explained this desire to him and he was listening between keystrokes of his latest proposal for a new client. He had to work late and was trying to get new clients for his company. Penny wasn't sure how much he caught of her desire but she went to sleep that night both excited and also a bit frustrated because she was not sure if he even heard her. Her husband kept working on the proposal and she fell asleep before he returned to bed with her.
The next few weeks were a blur, fall was a busy time at work preparing for the holidays and they needed additional help working a later shift. Penny volunteered when she heard that there would be overtime. The premium pay meant that she and her husband could afford that trip they were planning sooner than later. The new shift was exhausting and it left her and her husband on different schedules.
He would wake up in the morning to go to work and give her a kiss on the forehead then head out. A few hours later Penny would wake up and go to work but by the time she got home he would already be exhausted and ready for bed. They hadn't done much more than sleep in the same bed for several weeks. The days were flying by but the pay was good and it was temporary so it made sense.
Today Penny went to work as any other day and found that several of her coworkers had put some decorations up. Pretty cheesy to be honest but they were a few stretched cotton fake cobwebs and a clearly fake spider in the corner of the office. It was then that Penny realized what day it was. Halloween already! How could it sneak up on me? Ugh, she didn't have a costume and no party was planned for the evening. The house was far enough away from the city that they never even got trick-or-treaters.
Halloween was a new holiday to Penny since she had only immigrated to the US from China a few years earlier but she did like dressing up every year. She quickly sent a text to her husband "Sorry babe, I didn't even know it was Halloween. Can I make it up to you later?"
A quick reply came back "Sure, I have another client meeting today anyway"
Penny went through her day feeling a bit guilty for not remembering the day. She and her husband had some great times for their first few Halloween. Costumes added an extra spark to their sex lives. One year he had dressed up as a cop and ordered her around all night. Then there was the year she dressed up as a sexy nurse and "took care of him" and his every need. These kinds of games were exactly the kind she loved to play.
Remembering all the fun activities from previous Halloween's she decided she should pick up something on the way home to surprise him. Penny started thinking through several options in her head and with her mind busy, work flew by in a hurry. On the way home she stopped by the costume store. She had been there before and found what she was looking for right away. A "sexy red riding hood" outfit with all the complimenting accessories. She went to try it on in the dressing room. It was perfect! On her narrow frame the short miniskirt with ruffled edges climbed so high that it made her blush. She slipped on the leggings and garter with the teeny tiny lace panties that came with it. Now she was turning red thinking just how naughty she looked.
The top which laced over the skirt was a lace up corset in the back with a white blouse underneath. The corset was a nice touch to push up her small breasts. As is the case of most Asian woman she had the slender waist but paid for it with a less than ample set of breasts. He husband complimented her nipples and breasts all the time but she still felt a bit self conscious about them. The last part of the costume was a hood and short cape that flowed over her back.
She looked in the mirror and was quite pleased with the look. Her husband would freak. She snapped a few pics into the mirror and sent them to her husband with a message "My what big eyes you have!"
While she took the pictures she had spun around to take a pic of the back of the outfit and noticed that the skirt flew up exposing her teeny panties. Penny thought that she better be careful with that. This was Halloween after all and she was already wearing the costume so she decided to bring the packaging up to the front and pay for it without changing back into her original clothes.
This seemed like a fairly regular practice at a costume store but when she walked up to the front to pay the man behind the counter had his eyes glued on her the whole way up. She thought maybe he was going to scold her for not putting it back in the package before going to pay but when he said nothing but had his mouth wide open and stammered while trying to run the register she realized he was just gawking at her. Yes this really was a great look for her.
Leaving the store she twisted her waist playfully to tease the guy behind the counter. He must have gotten a nice view but she was too embarrassed to look back and see his reaction. Once Penny got back in the car she couldn't believe what had just come over her. She was a pretty shy girl but to flip her skirt up and show the teeny panties to that poor boy. She realized immediately that she was getting wet. She needed to get home and fast.
