"CASSSSS!" Sydney shrieks as bursts open the door to his bedroom. "Cas! Cas! It's less than a week until Halloweeeeen!" She jumps onto the bed, shimmying in-between Cas and Dean. She presses her back into Dean and her bosom against Cas' back. "Casss! Halloweeen!" She pinches his ear, waking him. He rolls over and squints at her.

"What are you doing in here? You're not Dean.." He rubs the sleep out of his eyes and yawns. "What time is it, anyway?" He stares out the window, noticing the sun isn't out yet. It couldn't be that early.

From the other side of the mountains Cas hears a lonely call. "It's five in the morning.." Cas lets out a sigh.

"Cas, we have to get going! We need to go and get our costumes!" She eagerly bounces around in the bed causing both men to groan.

"Sydney, it's five in the morning. The stores don't open for another five hours." She grunts and rolls over into Dean.

"Hey, you." She pokes his face. "You're going with us." Dean grunts in protest. "Well, then I'll make sure the costumes I pick out for us are going to be slutty as can be. Hell, I might even just go right to the sex shop and buy jock straps for you two." Dean sighs in defeat. "I'm glad you see things my way." She smiles and crawls over to Dean and heads out the door. Cas rolls over to face Dean.

"Do you think she knew we weren't sleeping?" Dean shakes his head.

"She definitely knows we were spooning for a whole other reason." He pauses for a moment. "Oh god, I hope she doesn't bring this up later." Cas kisses him on the nose. They hear the front door close.

"We could always finish up what we were doing..?" Dean just grins.

They head through the doors of the Halloween store. Cas holds on to Dean's hand with a death grip as they follow Sydney through the store. She spots a "STEP HERE" pad on the floor and glances over her shoulder at them, their attention is drawn to a large spider hanging above their heads. She laughs to herself and she stomps on the pad causing a zombie to pop up from behind a tombstone scaring them both, resulting in Cas' nails digging into the back of Dean's hand. He glares at Sydney as she snickers at them.

They browse through some costumes before Cas finds the perfect one. He holds it up so they can see it. "Guys! Look! Isn't it cute?" His smile spreads from ear to ear. "And hey, I know how we can string the costumes together." Dean pops his head up from the isle to look at the costume.

"Oh my goodness. You're going to look absolutely adorable in that and look what I just found." He pulls the costume off the shelf and holds it up. "They go together like a horse and carriage." Down the isle they hear Sydney laugh to herself. She struts to them with her costume behind her back.

"I've got mine and Sam's." A devious grin on her face, she holds them both up. Cas and Dean look at each other confused. "They go together too."

"Is that what Sam wants..?" Cas gets closer to get a better look at their costumes, or what's left of them. She shakes her head.

"Probably not, but he's outside on his phone instead of picking his out so he's getting what I choose." Cas looks at Dean for some help with convincing her to not buy the costumes, but he only shrugs.

"I hate to admit it, but she does have a point. He should have come in and he wouldn't be getting stuck with this costume." Cas frowns as he doesn't think they're being entirely fair to Sam, but knows there's no way he can prevent her from buying it. He lingers behind them as they check out and head out of the store, hoping Sam sees his costume before it's too late and he has nothing else to wear. Outside they run into him.

"Hey guys, I have an idea for Halloween night!" He's caught their attention now. "Why don't we head out to the woods? I heard there's a cozy cabin in the woods and we can spend the night there." Sydney's eyes light up with excitement.

"Absolutely. Yes. Please. Cas?" She turns to him and he has the same expression on his face.

"Oh my. Yes. We have to." Dean looks at them with his face scrunched up.

"We're not going to spend the night in some abandoned cabin in the woods on Halloween so we can get hacked up by a chainsaw wielding maniac who just escape from the freakin' asylum. No way, not happening." Cas looks at him with a sad look on his face. "Oh come on, don't do that to me. You're going to make me feel bad." He sighs and rolls his eyes. "Fine. We can go to the woods on Halloween night, also known as Devil's Night because that's not a bad sign, and sleep in an abandoned cabin where we'll face our demise dressed like assholes."

"Oh, hey, what costumes did you guys decide on?" None of them say anything. "I get it, it's a surprise because it's the idea I had and it's too good to spoil now. Just as long as you got mine." Sydney nods with a smile.

Halloween ?

Cas, Dean, and Sydney are already in their costumes as they wait for Sam to put his on. They sit in the living room of Sam's bungalow. They hear the bedroom door open and Sam walks in the room. Sydney lets out a snicker. Dean gasps. Cas tries to compliment Sam's interior design hoping to take away from the elephant in the room.

"Which one of you decided on Wizard of Oz characters?" Sydney and Dean point to Cas who looks uneasy. "Cas? You did this?"

"Well, I can assure you that my intentions weren't remotely close to this..." His eyes wander around the room trying to avoid Sam's gaze. "I wanted to be Cowardly Lion and Dean Scarecrow, Sydney would be a less provocative Dorothy and you would be Tin Man. Unfortunately, she came across the Toto outfit and they both decided this is what you would've wanted. Plus, she's pretty scary and I was afraid to disagree with her on this...though I did try to reason with them or mainly Sydney."

"Hey, at least you're a puppy. You would've been a scantily clad Dorothy instead. Ruby red slippers and all." Dean attempts to see the bright side of this. Sam just shakes his head.

"Whatever, guys. Let's just get this disaster over with." He grabs his keys and heads out the door, the other three trailing behind him. They pile into the car, Sydney forcing herself into the passenger seat leaving Cas and Dean to the backseat. It's not like she expected one of them to sit up front, she just wanted to assert her power she thought she had. The entire drive there, Sydney complains to Sam about his driving as Cas snickers in the back seat. When they finally arrive, Sam is on the verge of punching a hole in Sydney's face.

"Oh look there's a few other cars here. Maybe they had the same idea we had." Cas ogles at the other cars parked along the road. Dean sighs.

"Yeah, a bunch of other dumb assholes trying to get themselves abducted by aliens." Sydney turns around in her seat, gritting her teeth and glaring at him.

"Shut up, Dean. Aliens are no joking matter." Dean squints at her. They get out of the car and Dean is still glaring at Sydney trying to find out if she was being serious or not.

"Um..Sam, are there any flashlights?" Sam laughs and shakes his head. "How are we going to see where we're going?"

"You don't, that's how." They head across the street following behind Sam. "Just make sure you stay close, guys. I don't want to lose anyone out here, there might be bears or something."

"Well, Sammy, maybe if you gave us flashlights, we wouldn't need to be worrying about getting mauled by an asshole bear!" Dean grumbles. Sam just glares at him.

"You really use that word an awful lot, I'm beginning to think you like assholes or something." Sam doesn't realize what he's saying before the words have come out of his mouth and Cas is doubled over laughing, on the verge of peeing his pants. Sam rolls his eyes unable to believe he actually said that.

"I think there are things more important than that, like the fact that there's been a mysterious silhouette darting in between the trees that none of you took notice to." Those words send chills down their spines. Someone or something was out there and it was stalking them.

Sydney scoffs. "Come on guys, it's probably just some dumb kids playing around. It's completely harmless." Dean shrugs.

"Yeah, of course. Unless, you know, it's banjo playing mutant hillbillies planning to make us squeal like a bunch of pigs." Sydney punches him in the shoulder. "Ow! You know it's probably what's out there, but like you said it's completely harmless." She lets out a whine. "We just have to turn around and go back the way we came, no biggie. Unless we're in something like the Suicide Forest, then in that case, it was nice knowing you all." Cas jabs him in the rib and Dean turns to face him. "Hey, what's with everyone hurting me? It's not my fault you guys wanted to come out here." They bicker back and fourth.

Sam laughs at them. "At least we don't have to deal with that, ri-" He turns to Sydney, but she's no longer standing beside him. "Sydney? Stop playing around and come back." He begins to wander around in hopes of finding her.

Dean turns back to where they should've been, but realizes they're both gone now. "Oh great, big dummy and little dummy have gotten themselves lost." He grumbles.

"Maybe they just snuck off for a quickie..?" Cas shrugs with a smile on his face. Dean sighs knowing he's probably right.

"Maybe we should do the same." He grabs Cas around the waist causing him to turn red.
"Do you really think that's a good idea? I mean, that thing, whatever it is could get us.." Dean looks over his shoulder and then back at Cas with a wolfish grin on his face.

"That's a risk I'm willing to take.." He presses a kiss to Cas' lips. "Besides, we all die sometime. Some sooner than others. At least I would die in your embrace...well with your nails and teeth embedded in my skin." Cas rolls his eyes and Dean goes in for a kiss, but Cas pulls away. "Oh, man. I'm sorry, Cas. Am I being too pushy? I don't want to pressure you into it or an-" Cas cuts him off.

"No, but you do talk a lot. I can barely tell you that I'm pretty sure I see the cabin from here." Dean lets go of him and turns around. In the distance, he can see the low lights from the cabin illuminating the surrounding shrubbery.

"Wanna make a bet those two went without us?" He turns back to Cas, only to notice he's already headed toward the cabin without Dean. "Hey! Don't leave me out here alone!" He jogs up to where Cas is. "Aren't you supposed to be the Cowardly Lion? I don't think he'd just waltz through the woods at night like this."

"At least you're like the Scarecrow, you don't have a brain." Cas laughs at his joke. Dean purses his lips and resists the urge to have his way with Cas and leave him in an orgasmic mess for someone else to find.

It isn't a far walk before they reach the cabin. Dean's hesitant about opening the door, but he has no choice once Cas is pushing him through the door and into a room full of familiar faces. They both awkwardly stand in the doorway, completely unsure what they should do next. What is one supposed to do when they run into friends in a cabin in the middle of the woods.

Dean turns to Cas. "Is this like a setup or something? Did Sammy set us up?" His shocked expression becomes one of annoyance.

"Actually, Dean, I think this is a Halloween party. I think Sam 'set us up' to have some fun." Cas doesn't stand next to Dean much longer once he spots the candy apples. He's too distracted by the refreshments table that he doesn't notice the scheme Dean is conjuring up. Before he knows it, Dean's grabbing his hand and pulling him into a closet. Before he can protest, Dean shushes him.

"Hey, you're going to get your straw stuck to my apple!" Dean shushes him again. "Do not shush me while you're about to back into my Frankenstein cupcake. I will stick this apple up your ass. What are we even doing?" Dean turns around to him.

"We're keeping quiet, that's what we're doing." Cas looks at him as he takes a bite of the apple. A loud crunch following after. "Okay, okay. We're going to get back at Sam and Sydney. Everyone else is hidden all over the place, except anyone dressed as a clown. When they come in and see the clowns, we'll strategically turn the lights off and they're likely to both shit their pants. Honestly, I'm hoping they do shit themselves. If you stay quiet, I'll make sure you can take the rest of the apples home, okay?" Cas looks at him as he thinks.

"Okay, but you better not forget the apples." They hear the front door creak open.

"Did you really need to go picking at that dead deer?" The annoyance in Sam's voice reaching an all new high. Sydney just shrugs. "Now we have no clue where Cas and Dean disappeared to and we'll probably need a search and rescue team to find those two." He opens the door and allows her to go in first, following behind her only to run right into her. When he looks up he sees the clowns ominously lurking in the room. They're both frozen in fear, unable to let out a scream or to run right back out the door they just came through.

After what seemed like a millennium to them, Sam grabs her arm and turns to walk out the door only to be stopped by another clown standing on the front porch. Sydney lets out a whine and as she turns back to face the room, the lights go out masking the clowns in darkness. Knowing that going out the door would result in a confrontation with the clown, they both panic. "SAMMM!" Sydney moves further into the room, reasons unknown, dragging Sam along by the wrist. Feeling along the wall and hoping not to encounter any other clowns, she finds a doorknob in the darkness, praying to anyone willing to listen, that it was a door back to the woods. Unfortunately for them, it feels like another room. Even more unfortunate is something touching her leg causing her to let out a scream. Sam feels around for a light and finds one. Pulling the string, he looks down. Sat on the floor of the closet were a smiling Dean and a sticky Cas looking back at them.

"'Was this your idea?! Dean, that's not funny!" Dean laughs at them before standing up.

"Bravo, guys, what a show! Is there another showing?" He chuckles as he walks past them. Sam and Sydney are left staring at Cas who's too busy enjoying his apple to notice them looking at him. When he looks up, he's confused.

"Cas, you were in on this?" He stands and crumbs from the cupcake fall from his lap. He brushes the excess crumbs off.

"Technically? Yes. Actually? No, I just sat here eating this yummy boy." They just look at him. "Not Dean! I meant my apple..oh, he's going to give me apples too for being quiet...that's not synonymous with sex or anything either...Okay, I'm going to leave now before this gets even weirder." He exits the closet and Sam looks at Sydney.

"They probably had to sneak away because they couldn't keep their hands off of each other." The words come out before she can stop herself. She covers her mouth. "Oh, god."

"Are they..are they like a thing or something?" She tries to get out of the situation she caused.

"Ha, no, no. It's just a joke because they were in a closet.." She hurries out of the closet knowing Dean is likely to kill her when he finds out.
