Chapter 22

"Sylvain" Jessie whined as she stood in the living room of her dad's house "we need to pick out an outfit for you".

"I still don't know why I have to dress up" Sylvain complained "it is the children we are taking Trick Treatsing not me".

"Honey" Jessie said, wrapping her arms around him "its Trick-or-Treating and you have to dress up because I am".

"Are you going to be something sexy?" Sylvain purred, leaning down to kiss Jessie.

"I'm always sexy" she murmured as their lips met. "So any ideas on what you're gonna be?"

"Mon cherie" Sylvain moaned "why do I have to decide now?"

"Because" Jessie told him "as soon as dad and Trish get him ready we're taking Kevin to go get his costume, oh and we're taking Rosalyn too".

"Are you happy that we decided to adopt her?" Sylvain asked Jessie.

"Of course" she replied "I couldn't have standed giving her up".

"It doesn't bother you that we're not married yet we have a child?" he asked her.

"Does it bother you?" she countered. Instead of saying anything Sylvain pulled Jessie into another kiss.

"We're ready" Trish called. Jessie and Sylvain turned and saw Trish and John coming down the stairs, Kevin in John's arms. Both Sylvain and Jessie laughed when they saw Kevin he was dressed in head to toe Red Sox gear. When they got to the bottom of the stairs John sat Kevin down and he ran to Sylvain who picked him up.

"Looking good Lil' Man" Sylvain said to Kevin who laughed.

"Dada 'ase'all team" he said, motioning to the jersey he had on "you 'atch 'ase'all?" he asked Sylvain.

"No" Sylvain said "I have never watched it".

"'At a crime" Kevin exclaimed, making everyone crack up with laughter.

"It sure is kiddo" John said to Kevin "maybe we can convert him later on". He kissed Kevin on the forehead "be good ok, and pick out a good costume, something cool".

"Ok dada" Kevin said "I will". With that they left to go pick out costumes.

"Ok" Jessie said "we have Tigger, Spongebob, Bugs Bunny, Spiderman..."

"'Pidey" Kevin exclaimed "'pidey".

"Ok" Jessie said, taking the costume off the rack. She handed it to Sylvain "take him in the dressing room and make sure it fits" Sylvain grabbed the costume and took the excited toddler into the dressing room to help him try on his costume. "Ok Rosie" Jessie cooed to the toddler, looking through the babies costumes "what do you want to be huh? What do you want to be?" She looked through the costumes before coming across an adorable bunny costume. It was pink and had long ears on it. She tried it on Rosalyn over her clothes and it fit perfectly. "It'll keep you nice and warm too" Jessie said, noting the soft material. She took the costume off of Rosalyn and put it in the shopping cart. About that time Sylvain and Kevin came out of the dressing room.

"Fits nicely" Sylvain said, putting the Spiderman costume in the shopping cart.

"Good" Jessie replied "now let's find our costumes, Kevin any ideas on what Sylvain can be?"

"Swy be 'owdoy" Kevin said, looking at Sylvain.

"Oh yes, a French Canadian cowboy" Sylvain muttered under his breath.

"I think that's a good idea" Jessie said, letting her elbow smack Sylvain in the stomach as she rifled through costumes. She found an adult cowboy costume. It was a yellow shirt with red checks, black and white cowprint vest, blue jeans, and brown boots. It also came with a brown cowboy hat. "Go try it on" Jessie said, shoving the costume at him. Sylvain took it and made his way to the dressing room, muttering French expletives under his breath.

"What he say?" Kevin asked Jessie, pointing to where Sylvain disappeared.

"Oh he's just being a grumbly old bear" Jessie said. Sylvain came out of the dressing room in full costume and it took all Jessie had not to bust out laughing. The pants fit but were a bit on the tight side and Sylvain was walking funny in the boots. "Perfect" Jessie said "now go take it off" Jessie noticed as Sylvain walked away that the jeans hugged his ass and made it look delicious. She smiled a bit before turning back to the costumes.

"Whatcha think of this one?" Jessie asked Kevin, holding up a hippie costume.

"I wike" Kevin told her, studying the costume. She waited until Sylvain had came back out before trying the costume on. She went and modeled it for them, taking note of the way Sylvain's eyes darkened in lust.

"Come on baby" Randy said to Alexis "its not a bad thing, I'm a pimp and you're my hoe".

"If you say that once more Randall Keith I will smack you so hard your great grandfather will feel it" Alexis told him, glaring at him only the way a woman can.

"Baby..." Randy tried to suck up.

"I'll make you a deal" she said, rubbing her aching head "I'll be Jeannie from I Dream of Jeannie. I've got the costume from a few years back and I can still get into it".

"Jeannie..." Randy said, thinking about it "sexy.."

"Mama" Kevin said coming into the kitchen where Trish was putting candy into big, huge bowls "dat canny for me?"

"No honey" Trish said with a patient smile "you're gonna be getting candy tonight when you go trick or treating with Jessie, Sylvain, Matty, Sydney, and Rosalyn".

"I 'Spidey" Kevin said, tugging Trish's shirt.

"I know honey" Trish said, picking the little boy up and tickling him lightly "are you ready to go get a bath and get ready? By the time we get you dressed it'll be time for you to go".

"Wet's go den" Kevin said "you can help me since we wate and dada is gonned".

"Dada isn't gonned" Trish said, laughing "he's picking up mine and his costumes".

"What you be?" the little boy asked her.

"I'm Marilyn Monroe" Trish told him "and daddy's gonna be a marine".

"You mean like da toops" Kevin asked her.

"Yep" Trish said "but only pretend for daddy".

"Oh" Kevin said, looking thoughtful "wet's go get my bath, we needa hurry". Trish laughed and took him upstairs to give him a bath and dress him in his costume.

"Cherie" Sylvain told her as he pulled at his pants "I won't be able to sit tonight".

"That's good" she said "because we're gonna be doing alot of walking, oh and carrying since we have two kids who can't walk and one of us is gonna have to lead Sydney too, probably you because for some reason she takes to guys more than she does women. The only woman she's close to is Lexi, she's kinda close to Trish and Randy and Lexi's mom's but she'll go to Randy or dad before she goes to one of them".

"How did they get their...disabilities?" Sylvain asked "I have never known, I didn't really spend time around them until you and I started dating".

"They were born prematurely" Jessie told him "they were underweight and had all kinds of infections and crap the first few months of their lives. Later on it was discovered that Sydney was blind when like Randy or Lexi would call her and she wouldn't look at them she'd like look toward the wall to the side of them or something and her eyes were always glassy. Finally a specialist diagnosed her when she was like 2 I think. As for Matty when he didn't start walking when he was supposed to Randy and Lexi started getting worried, plus he'd like pull himself up and fall alot and if someone held his hands and tried to help him walk he'd fall to his knees and all".

"Poor kids" Sylvain remarked.

"I know" Jessie said as she adjusted her peace beads "but I mean you would never know anything's wrong with them by their personalities, they're the most loving kids I've ever seen, Kevin too. I mean my mom's family all the kids were huge brats but these kids are like not normal" Sylvain laughed at Jessie's joke.

"DESSIE" Kevin's voice broke the silence "SWY HURRY 'ET'S GO" both Sylvain and Jessie laughed and walked down the stairs to the living room. They saw Trish trying to tie Kevin's shoes but she was having trouble because the little boy wouldn't stay still. "Mama" he said to Trish "Pidey don't wear shoes".

"Of course he does" Sylvain said, sitting beside Kevin on the couch, even though he winced when the pants hugged closer to his body "just think, Peter Parker had to go fight some villain and in his haste to get their quick he forgot to take his sneakers off".

"Ohhh" Kevin said, after that he sat still and let Trish finish tying his shoes. When she was finish Trish mouthed 'thank you' to Sylvain who just smiled in reply. "We weady to go?" Kevin asked.

"We gotta wait on Sydney and Matt" Jessie told him. Kevin nodded. Not long after she said that there was a knock on the door. Jessie went to get it seeing as she was the only one standing. Sylvain and Trish looked at each other when they heard her exclaim.

"AWWW" when everyone came into the living room they saw what made Jessie coo so loudly. Sydney was dressed up as Cinderella and Matty was dressed in some kind of suit.

"Matty" Trish said to the little boy "who are you for Halloween?"

"I daddy" Matty told her, making everyone laugh.

"You don't know how many places I had to go to, to find that suit" Alexis told her "he had to have an exact replica of something Randy's worn on tv so I went to every place in St. Louis to find it".

"Randy" Jessie remarked "I just don't know what to say about that costume. It's...you, very you". He was wearing velvet purple pants with matching velvet jacket with a yellow silk shirt. He had on obscenely large fake gold chains and a cane in his hand.

"Thanks" Randy said, smiling cheesily at her, when he did everyone could see fake gold teeth.

"Ready to go kids?" Jessie asked. The kids cheered. "Ok" she said to Sylvain "you take Kev and Sydney I'll push Rosie's stroller and carry Matty" Sylvain nodded and got up off of the couch, with Randy's help, and picked up his designated children. The kids said goodbye to their parents and Jessie and Sylvain took off down the sidewalk to begin the door to door tradition of trick or treating.

"I'm gonna go get ready now" Trish said to Randy and Lexi "John should be back soon with mine and his costumes so I'm gonna do all I can until he gets here". Both nodded and Trish went upstairs to get a shower and all while she waited on John. About 10 minutes after Trish had went upstairs John came in the house, lugging two garment bags with him.

"'Bout time" Randy quipped, John shot him the bird.

"Where's my woman?" John asked.

"Upstairs getting ready somewhat" Alexis told him.

"Ahh" John said, a devilish smile on his face "I'm gonna go get ready too, be right back".

"Don't start anything" Randy called after him "we don't have time for hanky panky, we'll be late".

"That's not what you said earlier" Alexis said to him, smiling sweetly. Randy leaned over and kissed her on the lips.

"That was then" he told her "and that was us, if I'm not getting any I don't want to wait while someone else is". Alexis laughed loudly and smacked his arm, Randy however shrugged and smirked telling her it was the truth.

"Hun" John said, sticking his head in the bathroom where Trish was taking a shower "I'm gonna sit your costume on the toilet".

"Ok thanks baby" Trish called over the water running. John put her costume down and went into their bedroom to change into his. He stripped off his jersey and jean shorts before putting on the black pants, white shirt, and overcoat. He finished it off with the white shoes and gloves, adding the hat and was ready to go. John looked up from tying his shoe when he heard a wolf whistle. He laughed but quickly stopped as he noticed Trish. She was wearing a replica of the famous white dress that Marilyn Monroe wore. She had on make up and her hair was curled just like Marilyn's was. High heeled shoes boosted her height a few inches.

"Damn baby" he said, going over to her and wrapping his arms around her waist "your lookin' all kinds of fine".

"I could say the same about you" Trish said, pulling back to look him up and down "uniforms suit you. You got me all hot and bothered".

"You know" John said, leaning in to kiss Trish "I could buy this uniform and we could do a little role play".

"I think I like that idea" Trish told him "I've always wanted to be swept off my feet like at the end of An Officer and a Gentleman". John proceded to pick her up in his arms and carry her downstairs where Lexi and Randy were still waiting. Not long after that the four left to go to the Halloween costume party Vince McMahon was throwing for the company.

"This party's pumpin'" Lexi yelled over the music as they made their way into the ball room of the hotel Vince had rented out. It was packed with people who were all laughing and having a good time. "Let's go dance" she said to Randy when 'Monster Mash' came over the loud speakers. She pulled him to the dance floor where they grooved to the music.

"Hahaha" Trish busted up in laughter "look at Glen". Trish pointed to where Glen Jacobs was having a conversation with Shelton Benjamin and John laughed so hard tears came to his eyes. Glen was wearing an adult Dino the Dinosaur costume. Complete with long tail. As he gestured wildly about something he almost knocked down Lilian Garcia who was making her way to the punch bowl, with his tail.

"Ya'll are late" Dave Batista said, coming up to John and Trish. He was wearing a Tarzan costume, complete with fake chimp wrapped around his neck, his wife Taylor was holding his hand. She was dressed as Jane. They made a striking pair.

"We had to get the kids out hittin' up the neighbors for candy" John said, doing the manly handshake hug thing with Dave and kissing Taylor on the cheek "that held us up".

"Actually" Trish said, stepping into the conversation "we got held up because John had to go get our costumes. He forgot until today". John stuck his tongue out at her and pouted childishly, making everyone laugh at his antics.

"Damn John" Maven said coming over to the group after Dave had dragged Taylor off to the dance floor to 'show Randy and Lexi how to get down'. "You better keep an eye on your girl, I may have to steal her from you".

"Hmm" Trish said, pretending to decide between the two "a GI Joe wanna be or a sexy marine, I think I know who I wanna pick".

"Aww" Maven pretended to be disappointed "hey if you want me to drop and give you 50 just come find me" with that he walked off to talk to someone else.

"Let's dance" John said as the song changed to 'Let's Make Love' by Tim McGraw and Faith Hill. Everyone had fun at the party that night. They unwinded and mingled with each other, putting behind them the stress of the day to day job.

Later that night John, Trish, Randy, and Lexi came back to John and Trish's house. Trish and Lexi were both carrying their shoes and John and Randy had both shed their jackets and unbuttoned a few buttons on their shirts.

"What's wrong with you?" John asked as he walked into the living room. Sylvain was sitting beside Jessie on the couch, dressed in sweatpants and a sleeveless t-shirt. His feet were sitting in a bucket of ice water.

"His feet are blistered from those boots he wore" Jessie supplied "he took them off and their like one big blister, it was pretty gross".

"How were the kids?" Lexi asked.

"Great" Jessie told her "they all got along, got their candy and crashed as soon as we got home" she pointed to the other side of the room where Sydney and Matty were laying side by side and Kevin was laying with his head on their feet, Rosalyn was asleep in her carseat near them.

"Aww" Trish cooed "that's adorable". Randy picked the twins up and he and Lexi left back to their hotel suite John picked up Kevin and said goodnight to Jessie and Sylvain as he took him upstairs to go to bed.

"Did you guys have fun?" Jessie asked Trish.

"Oh yea" Trish said as she took off her earrings "it was a blast, I love the company parties".

"Maybe next year we can go" Jessie said.

"That'd be cool" Trish remarked to her "well I'm gonna head to bed too, I'm wiped out and knowing Kevin he'll be up at the buttcrack of dawn". Trish told Sylvain and Jessie goodnight before heading upstairs.

"Cherie" Sylvain said "are you ready to go to bed?"

"Yeah" Jessie told him, trying to suppress a yawn "all that trick or treating took alot out of me. Now I know why I stopped at 11". Sylvain laughed and picked Jessie up in his arms, carrying her to bed. Once she was in her room he came back downstairs, grabbing Rosalyn and hauling her upstairs. He put her in her crib before getting into bed with Jessie, they fell straight to sleep.
