The Little Things

by egg10rru

A series of small, one- or two-paragraph chapters that portray little memories and things that Tory and Colin think about.

1. Jealousy

I admit I sort of stole the idea of small drabble-ish chapters that alternate between Tory and Colin's perspectives from gravitationfiend's stories A Gift For Tory and A Gift For Colin, so...uh...yeah, I'll just...dedicate this fic to gravitationfiend to make up for the style steal! xD

The theme of this fic is: "Because it's the little things he does that I like about him." It will take turns between Tory and Colin, portraying small "memories" of theirs: that is, small ideas that I have but can't put into fics, sort of like The Necklace. In fact, The Necklace should probably just be a chapter of this fic...

I love how this introduction was as long as the actual chapter content xD

~*~Tory's first memory, entitled Jealousy~*~

Once when I was scribbling a lot down in my current notebook, I noticed out of the corner of my eye that Colin was staring at my busy hand with a very irked look. I thought it was maybe because he was remembering the time when he found the notebook with all of his info in it, but I thought he was over that? When I paused in between lines to think what I wanted to write next and flex my fingers, he snatched the pen from me and grabbed my hand. I looked at him in confusion, and he flushed and muttered self-defensively that the warmth from another's hand is the best cure for writer's cramp. He then proceeded to scowl at my pen and snap it in half. It's utterly adorable when he gets jealous of inanimate objects.

They'll generally be about this long or a little longer, but always less than a page. Hope you like them, I think of them as little pick-me-uppers during the day, just something small to put a smile on my face. Love~!
