For suburbs 5th challenge: Holiday Traditions I chose #2. Trick or Treating - This is my traditional submission, I'm thinking of writing one about one of those obscure holidays I found- maybe as a companion to Be Kind to Chipmunks.

Disclaimer: wait let me check... yep- still don't own JONAS.


Grapes

By From the End of Heaven


Nick walked in to see Kevin tying off a purple balloon- he was surrounded with at least twenty blown up purple balloons- all various sizes. "Hey Kevin- what're you doing?"

"Macy and I are going trick-or-treating with Stella's little brother Spencer." He responded matter-of-factly, and little bit out breath.

Well that explains everything.

"So the purple balloons are to float from house to house?"

"I'm going as a bunch of grapes"

"What?"

"See I'm going to staple all these balloons to my brown shirt and pants. And then I have some purple face paint"

"Staple?"

"yep"

"So once you staple all of them on how are you going to put it on?"

His face fell, "Oh."

"Maybe you should put on the pants and shirt and then tape the balloons on." Sometimes Nick thought that if he weren't here to run interference- Kevin and Joe would kill themselves.

"That is a great idea!" His brothers face brightened "Then I'll for sure be able to move my arms. Will you help me?"

"Sure Kev"

"So is Macy going as a watermelon?"

"Maybe- she wouldn't tell me."

"When are you meeting?"

"at 5:30- We want to be back in time to see the Charlie Brown Halloween special- You should come with us!"

"Nah I'm good" Nick had plans to watch a marathon of ghost stories- even if ghost weren't real, it was amusing to watch people freak out. Nick felt like he should at least do something that related to the holiday.

"Nick- Halloween is great for guys like us!" Kevin exclaimed

"Brothers?"

"Famous Rock'n'Roll Brothers."

Nick doubted this "How so?"

"Masks, make-up and a costume No one knows who you are. Halloween was made for us."

It was strange when Kevin made sense. How he could see things Nick couldn't- it was like an unplanned role-reversal.

"So will you come with us?"

Nick released half a grin, "Sure why not?"

"Excellent! I have a pineapple costume that will be perfect for you."


I think Kevin would look adorable as a bunch of grapes. Actually he'd look adorable as anything.
