Baby's First Halloween

Dick told Jason specifically not to buy any Halloween costumes, not for himself, him, or little Kaden, because he had that covered. Jason was naturally curious, but when he asked, Dick refused to tell him.

"C'mon, not even a little hint?" Jason asked, following Dick out of the kitchen as the man retreated to the living room with a soda. They'd both sworn off beer while the baby was in the house. The man flopped down on the couch with a sigh and a cocky grin and Jason sat down beside him.

"Nope, not even a hint," he replied. Jason huffed in annoyance and sat back on the couch and Dick just giggled at him, pressing a kiss to his cheek.

"Don't worry, you'll find out soon enough," he replied with a mischievous smirk. Jason quirked an eyebrow at him.

"That look on your face has me very worried, Dick," Jason replied. Dick pushed himself up off the couch and cackled as he left the room. Very worried. He looked down to Kaden who was sitting on the floor playing with his ABC blocks. The boy giggled happily when he knocked them over and then looked up at his father with one of those adorable little scowls. Jason scowled back and the baby giggled, drawing a laugh out of Jason.

"I don't suppose Dickie-bird told you what our costumes are?" Jason asked, quirking an eyebrow. Kaden just stared up at him in silence for a few moments a block in his tiny little hand. He let out a shrill giggle and called 'dada!' Jason chuckled in amusement and moved down to the floor to play with the blocks with Kaden, much to the boy's delight.

"Didn't think so. Guess I'll just have to wait and see."

Halloween came a week later and a six PM, Dick had gotten everyone into their costumes and into the car to stop by the manor first to show Bruce their costumes and take some pictures for him. They needed pictures to commemorate Kaden's first Halloween.

Of course, convincing Jason to put his costume on took a lot of extra work. He was completely against it at first, so it took Dick a half an hour of prodding and bribing to get him to put it on. But it would be worth it, especially when Bruce laid eyes on the three of them.

"I mean it, Dick! You owe me huge for this! Rough sex, on the couch-"

"Not in front of the baby!" Dick said with a hint of tease, slapping Jason's arm playfully. They both glanced back at Kaden who looked at them with a clueless grin on his face, letting out a little giggle.

"I hate you," Jason said sourly, but with a hint of amusement in it. Dick snickered and caressed Jason's cheek with his knuckles.

"No you don't, you love me," Dick replied. Jason smirked at the comment as they came to a stop in front of the manor and leaned in for a kiss.

"You got me, once again." Dick smiled at him and kissed him back. They parted and hopped out of the car, grabbing Kaden from his car seat and made for the front door. Dick gave the door bell a ring and minutes later, Alfred was there to answer the door.

"How may I...as, Master Dick, Master Jason," Alfred said casually, eyeing them both carefully. Kaden giggled happily, standing between the two of them, holding their hands.

"Master Bruce is in his study."

"Thank you Alf," Jason replied. He looked back over his shoulder and shot back "and not a word of this to anyone!" Alfred chuckled in amusement.

"Of course sir."

Jason and Dick stood in front of Bruce's study, Dick lifting Kaden up to the door. The little boy knocked a couple of times, Bruce obviously not having heard it, so Dick knocked and they received a 'come in." So the door swung open and in the strolled. Bruce looked up and did a double-take, eyes widening at their costumes.

Dick was dressed up as Superman and Jason was garbed in a Batman costume. And little Kaden was wearing a Robin costume. Jason looked rather sour, but Dick had a shit-eating grin on his face and Kaden giggled happily as he looked up at his grandfather. Bruce quirked an eyebrow and opened his mouth to speak, then shut it again.

"Not a word," Jason said flatly. Bruce just grinned at him and Jason rolled his eyes.

"Happy Halloween boys," Bruce said.

"I hate you all," Jason said.
