"Twick-O-Tweat!" the Allen twins said in unison.
"You two are just the cutest," an elderly woman gushed at the sight of the toddlers dressed as mini pumpkins.
"Thaank you," Danny smiled.
"Wally, my hair wet," Dawn said in a toddler tone.
Wally looked up at the sky and noticed it was starting to rain. The speedster put their hoods on to shield them from the rain that was getting heavy by the second. "Okay, you two its time to go home, because your mommy and daddy are going to be worried that we're roaming around in a storm," he said as he scooped them up both. In a matter of no time he got to the Allen's house.
"Hey, Uncle Barry," Wally said placing the twins in their playpen.
Barry welcomed his nephew and then made his way to the dining room table to look at the amounts candy his children received.
"Did you have fun with cousin Wally?" Iris cooed her son and daughter who were in peals of laughter.
"Wally, you and the twins sure got a lot of candy," Barry said as he devoured a chocolate candy bar.
"Babe, those are the kids," Iris swatted her husband's handful of candy.
"Aunt Iris, I ate some too," he confessed receiving a glare from the red haired woman. "What I was just making sure the candy was safe for them to eat."
"So, Wally, what you else are you going to do tonight?" his uncle asked while Wally smiled in return…

Dick adjusted his Batman mask as he and Connor shared a conversation. Dick sensed something was bothering his friend, but no matter how many times he tried to ask him what was up, he seemed to brush it off or something else would come up.
"Connor, what's troubling you?" Dick asked lifting up his mask. Connor looked over at his wife who was currently talking with Zatanna.
"I don't think Megan is being honest with me," he said with seriousness.
The dark haired man in the Batman costume glanced over at the troubled man's wife.
"What do you mean she's not being honest with you?" Dick asked.
"Lately she's been distant. I-I don't know what it is," Connor his rough hands through his jet black hair. "It's like one day we're talking about starting a family and the next every time I bring up kids she just gets up and leaves the room."
"Do you want me to ask Zatanna if she knows anything?" Dick asked.
"I just want to know what's going on with her," Connor said. "Before we got here I tried asking her what was wrong and she just got upset." The man dressed as Super Man closed his blue eyes recalling the look in his wife's eyes when he asked. Her eyes were filled with sadness and melancholy.
Megan listened to the woman dressed as a magician as she continued to rant about how hilarious it as for Dick to persuade Bruce Wayne into throwing a Halloween party. Megan laughed as Zatanna attempted to impersonate Bruce, but her attention immediately shifted to Barbra Gordon who looked like Victoria Beckham.
"Hey, Victoria, where's David?" Megan smiled. Her smile dissolved when she saw the pissed off look on the agent's face.
"What's wrong, Barb?" Zatanna asked.
"I had a rough date," she said.
Karen and Cassie sprinted over to the table the second they saw Barbra.
"What's up, girl? I just saw your text." Karen gestured to her iphone.
"So, a week ago," she chugged down a plastic cup of punch . "I met this guy Billy. Anyway, Billy asked me out tonight to go to dinner. I ordered a salad with a side order of steamed vegetables. Anyway, right after he paid for the dinner he says and I quote," she said using two of her fingers on her left and right hand to emphasize what the idiotic man said, "I gave you food now I want you to give me one hell of a night in the sack."
The women all around her gasped in disgust, the teenager dressed as scream, Tim noticed the women socializing circle and decided to join in, since he had heard part of the story. Before the women could find words of wisdom the 14 year old going on 15 jumped into the conversation; Zatanna recognized that it was Tim.
"Barbra, you need a man who listens to you, respects you, and makes you feel special," Tim said to the woman, who had been upset not more than 5 minutes ago had suddenly changed into her flirty self.
"What's your name?" she asked twirling a strand of her reddish colored hair with the tip of her index finger.
"Don't you know who I am?" Tim asked with the mask still covering his face.
"Why don't you remind me?" she said in a flirty tone. "Where might have we met before?" she asked tossing him a sultry grin.
"Here Bruce Wayne's mansion a few years ago," he stated the obvious.
She had no idea she was making a pass at a 14 year old till…now.
"Tim!?" Barbra blurted out her face red as a cherry. She couldn't believe she had just flirted with a teenager.
"Trick or Treat," he teased lifting up his mask as he began to walk off leaving while the group of women had their heads thrown back as they laughed. They laughed so hard their sides were hurting.
"What?" Barbra shrugged her shoulders. "I knew it was him the whole time," she lied.
"Yeah, right," Cassie grinned.
"It's true," Barbra said.
"Barbra, you were ready to sleep with him," Karen joked.
"Sleep with who?" Jade surprised the four women.
"Jade, Roy," Zatanna greeted. "It's good to see you both. Is Artemis not coming?" the dark haired woman asked.
"No, it's raining outside and she figured that with her cast and all it would be too much of a hassle," the pregnant woman answered.
"You looks so cute by the way," Zatanna marveled Greek goddess dress.
"Oh, really," Jade placed a hand on her hip modeling for amusement. "Yeah, I'm totally rocking this baby bump," she joked.
"You look beautiful, Jade," Karen said pulling out a chair for the delicate woman to sit on.
"You're practically glowing," Cassie smiled.
Megan silently agreed, "How far along are you?"
"About three months," Jade smiled with pride.
'Three months,' Megan thought to herself. Once again she felt the anguish of not being able to have kids of her own. She knew she had to tell Connor. But she couldn't but fear how he would react. 'Would he divorce me?' 'Will I never have the feeling of life growing inside me?' A single tear fought its way down her cheek. She quickly wiped it away not wanting anybody to notice.
Roy gave his wife a chaste kiss before he went on his quest for a beverage, "I'm going to go get you a drink."

Artemis stood in her kitchen waiting for her popcorn to finish popping. Her long blonde hair cascaded down her back and her attire was just a light green tank top with jeans. When Arrow entered the kitchen her attention immediately went to him, that is until she heard a knock at her door.
"Trick-or-Treat!"
Her mouth molded into a smile when she saw the scarlet haired speedster holding a bag of candy. "I'm sorry, little boy," she teased as she tossed a handful of snickers in the Halloween bag, "But what are you supposed to be?"
"Your boyfriend who comes bearing gifts," he said holding movies one of the movies was her favorite about a ninja daughter who is sent out to kill her ninja boyfriend.
"These are all very tempting, West," she said closing the door behind him slightly limping to get a bowel of popcorn. "But how about we watch Halloween since it is Halloween."
"Whatever, you want, Beautiful," he said as he scooped her up in his arms while she was holding the popcorn.
Artemis would have questioned him why he wanted to carry her, but he answered her question, "The doctor said he didn't want you on your feet," he gently placed her on the sofa.
"How's the ankle?" she asked watching him.
Wally had twisted his ankle many times in lifetime. "It doesn't hurt. In fact I'm barely limping," he said. "Although I'll be honest I limped the whole time I took the twins trick-or-treating, but that was just because I wanted them to get as much candy as possible.
"Who could turn down giving candy to two adorable toddlers and a man with a limp," she teased.
"A handsome man with a limp," he added snuggling next her draping his arm around her waist.
"Comfy?" Artemis asked with a grin.
"Very," he said placing a kiss on her forehead, "You?"
Artemis tangled her fingers into her boyfriend's hair and pulled his face to hers. Their lips met into a soft kiss. The screams and suspenseful music coming from the T.V caused them to pull apart.
"This part always scares he crap out of me," he said watching Michael Myers escape the metal hospital.
"The part that scares me is when she's hiding in the closet," Artemis laid her head against his muscular chest.
"That is scary, but the other part that scares me is when he kills those teens after they have sex," the scarlet haired speedster said while stuffing his face with popcorn. "It's like what that guy in Scream says, the rules for scary movies: you can never have sex, drink, and never say I'll be right back. It's like if you follow those rules then the killer won't get you."
"Well, we're almost out of popcorn," Artemis attempted to get up.
"No, I'll get it," Wally offered hopping to his feet, "I'll be right back," he said without thinking and then realized, "Okay, now I'm scared. The killer is coming to get me," he joked.
"Wally," Artemis called sweetly motioning with her index finger for him to come to her. "You're such a dork," she said planting a kiss on his cheek, leading to another kiss but this time…the kiss was more passionate. Wally fell on the couch with Artemis under him. Their lips never moved from the others as they became lost in their heated make out. The red haired man tried desperately to remove his sweater, but then the sweater got stuck on his head. Artemis giggled as Arrow began to growl believing that his master was in danger by the sweater head monster.
"Down boy," the two said in unison.
Artemis was referring to the dog, while Wally on the other hand was referring to his painful erection.
With a firm yank Artemis released her boyfriend from his claustrophobic sweater. Wally paused taking in the gorgeous sight of the woman that laid beneath him. Her long blonde hair was fanned out on the sofa cushion, her olive colored skin was soft to touch, and her steel colored eyes had a spark in them that he found incredibly alluring.
'Beautiful," he murmured kissing down her neck.
"Oh, Wally," the blonde moaned. "Before this goes too far," she cupped his face in her hands. "I'm still-I don't-I haven't been"-she struggled to find the right words.
"Babe," Wally sensed her insecurity. "We don't have to do anything if you don't want to. I was just going to kiss you, I swear," he said sincerely. He promised never to hurt her again. Their new relationship would be based on trust and honesty.

Megan and Connor's household
"Goodnight," Megan turned away from her husband's.
"Megan, what's going on?" Connor sat up looking directly at his wife who didn't budge.
"What are you talking about? I'm tiered and I have rehearsals tomorrow. Goodnight," she said pulling the blanket over her head.
"Megan, sooner or later you are going to have to tell me. I know something is going on," Connor said yanking the blankets off her. "I'm your husband and I want to know what's going on."
"Connor, please," the pixie haired woman begged. "Please I can't."
The ebony haired man took his wife's hand, "Megan, for better or for worse."
"A few days ago, I saw my gynecologist and she said that our chances of having kids are very low. I'm infertile Connor," her back arched from the emotional pain she was in.
"Sssh," the dark haired man pulled his wife's body to his. "Easy. Megan, I love you. No matter what I'm always going to love you. Please don't cry. Us not having kids isn't the end of the world. We can always adopt," he said while planting butterfly kiss down her face to her neck.

November 11
"Wallace Rudolph West."
Wally smiled as his girlfriend said is whole name. "No, peeking," he said making sure the blindfold was completely covering her eyes. He couldn't wait to see the look on her face when they arrived at their destination.
"Wally, it's your birthday," Artemis laughed. "Shouldn't you be the one in the blindfold?"
"I know, it's my birthday, babe," he grinned. "But my birthday wish is to see you have fun and smile. And here we are."
"Where are we?" the blonde asked stepping out of the car with the blindfold still over her eyes. "Gotham City Park!" Artemis said in amazement as he removed the blindfold. "I haven't been here since I was"-
"10" he knew how long it had been since she had been to this park. He and Jade had a long conversation about it a week ago.
As the two walked hand in hand through the park, she couldn't help but reminisce the history about the history she had with this park.
"You know Jade and I place in this park every day," she smiled as Wally pushed a strand of one of her blonde hair off her face.
He nodded, "You know whenever I'd come to Gotham, Dick and I would play in this park."
"It's a nice park," they both said at the said at the same time.
The two chuckled.
"They say this is one of the oldest parks around," Wally said.
"That doesn't surprise me," the blonde said referring to an old looking sycamore tree.
"Hey," Wally sprinted to the tree pulling her with him. "I carved my name into this tree a long time ago."
At this park it was tradition for visitors to carve there name in any tree they wanted. Once you carved your name into the tree it was a promise meaning you would return.
"No way," Artemis said. "I did too."
"Here you look for my name and I'll look for yours," Artemis suggested. Wally agreed and searched for her name. It was a matter seconds before the two found their names at the same time.
The two lightly touched the carvings believing it was dream. What were the odds that Artemis's name would be right next Wally's.
"Wally," Artemis said wrapping her arms around his neck, "Thank you for bring me here." With that said she pulled his face to hers. Their lips met sharing a passionate kiss.
Sorry! I'm having a little bit of writers block! Please Review!;)
