"Okay, boys, well, we can choose from over here," Ms. Patti said, guiding them through her shop.
"I can't believe we're doing this," Dean said, rolling his eyes as he looked skeptically at the racks of costumes. "Explain to me why we're doing this again."
Sam shook his head. To tell Dean the truth, he didn't know either. So he lied, "So in case Angela wants to make a visit, we're there." He kept his voice down low.
"I got my costume," Sam said, taking the first bag he saw, that said serial killer on it. The appeal to the outfit was its simplicity. Camo pants, black jacket and an orange ski mask. There was something eerily familiar about it, but Sam shrugged the feeling off.
"Whoa, dude," Dean said, picking up a can of green hair dye in a spray can. "That'd be awesome." Sam laughed. "Where'd you get that?" Dean pointed to the costume.
"On the rack," Sam said. Duh.
"Good," Ms. Patti came out from the back room, "You found one. You can try it on in the back to see if it fits." Sam went back into the enclosed office. Ms. Pattie began lighting candles around the place to put into the carved jack-o-lanterns. Dean flipped through the costumes.
He pulled out baggy black pants and a white tank top. It had a black leather jacket complete with a silver chain around the left arm. The tag on the outside read, in curly handwriting, "Extra Costume- Punk- Grease. See accessories #121." Dean shrugged. Hey, he got to wear a leather jacket.
Sam came out, the ski mask pulled down on his face. "I like it!" He said, muffled through the orange fabric. "What's that?" Dean showed him, and Sam laughed and nodded. "See accesories?" Sam walked over to the shelves of accessories and pulled off the bag of accessories for Dean costume. "Whoa."
Dean had ruffled his hair, short as it was, up into some kind of a faux-hawk, and spray dyed it green. "This better wash off tomorrow," He said. He pulled the choke necklace around his neck. It was the kind of like pitbull collar with the spikes.
"Wanna finish the outfit?" Sam held up the eyeliner that was supposed to go with it.
"No guyliner for me," Dean laughed, and pulled on the boots that went with the outfit.
"Aw, come on," Sam teased, setting the pencil down next to Dean. "Your outfit makes mine look like I pulled it out of the trash." He walked over to where all the jack-o-lanterns were lined up. There were some spare candles lit and off to the side.
Dean was holding the eyeliner pencil like he was second guessing it. Sam picked up one of the candles. "Don't you love how the rest of the world makes a big joke out of halloween," he said. Dean had decided to go for the eyeliner after all, but he wasn't sure how exactly to put it on right. He looked in the mirror.
"How's this for bad ass?" He said.
"If only you weren't so short," Sam said, and Dean shot him a look.
"At least I'm not a giant," Dean retorted.
"Ow!" Sam exclaimed and dropped the candle. Some of the wax has shifted off onto his finger. The candle went out on the way to the ground. Sam peeled the wax slowly off his finger, peeling off layers of skin with it.
"At least it was just your finger," Dean said. Sam had a weird feeling like he'd done this before as he got the rest of the wax off. "Dad knew a guy that got covered in hot wax."
"No word about this ever again," Dean said to Sam, still looking in the mirror. Sam pulled the ski mask off his face and looked at the two of them side by side.
"We look like we're ready to kill someone," Sam said, and Dean smirked. He pulled the gun that had been in his other jacket out and tucked it into the back of the black pants he had on.
"Or something," Dean said, but stopped talking as Ms. Patti came in.
"Good!" she shrieked. "You found something. Oh, very imposing," she said to Dean. Taylor came rushing in.
"Patti!" Ms. Patti looked up and rolled her eyes. "Patti, do not roll your eyes at me, I really am missing the pieces to the bucket game."
"Taylor, that is not my issue," Ms. Patti replied.
"I left them right outside, and you said you'd look after them!"
"I never said that, and they were there earlier and I figured you took them so you could set up," Ms. Patty said, clearly irritated. Sam and Dean exchanged glances.
"Let's go," Dean said, keeping his voice low. They grabbed their stuff and got out of there.
A/N: Just a little fun with the costuming (Sam's is from CryWolf, a movie Jared was in and Dean's is based off of Jensen's upcoming role in 10 Inch Hero.) I fought the urge to dress them up as ghostbusters but that might be too reminiscent of Harry and Ed (Am I the only one who misses them?) Hope you guys enjoyed it! Luvs!
