Chapter 1: Battle of Power

It was summer break again, the sons now graduated from high school. They were now in college, Ipswich University or IU. They were in dorms again, Caleb and Reid being roommates, and Pogue and Tyler being roommates. Kate and Sarah were roommates once again, which they were overjoyed about. The sons had just got to campus after a night at Nicky's – yes, they still go there as their main hangout spot – and were now walking to their dorms.
"Man, did you see that girl?" Tyler said with an amused smile.
Pogue laughed. "She looked like she never turned anything in her life."
Reid smirked. "With the way she was handling it – no pun intended – she probably never has. Hope she doesn't handle a dick like that or I'd feel sorry for the poor guy that ends up with her,"
Pogue and Tyler laugh while Caleb let out a soft controlled laugh – him having more self-control and all.
"Thank God I won't ever have to deal with that problem." Reid gazed over at Caleb with a proud smirk after that statement.
Caleb smiled back at him when he met his gaze and saw that Reid wanted a kiss right then, so he leaned over and gave him a short kiss, Reid and Caleb both smiling through it. Caleb reached for Reid's hand so their hands were joined once they ended the kiss. Reid then leaned his head down to rest on Caleb's shoulder.
Tyler rolled his eyes fondly at the couple. "Alright, love birds, don't get too touchy before we even get to the dorms."
Reid kept his head on Caleb's shoulder and his hand locked with Caleb's as he answered back. "Ah, you're just grippin' cuz you don't have someone."
"Sure, Reid, that's my reason." Tyler shot back sarcastically.
They were talking about a girl playing foosball at Nicky's. She couldn't turn the handles properly to get the figures to hit the ball. It was quite sad considering how simple foosball was. Once they got to their dorms, they split up and said their goodbyes to go into their rooms.
"Tonight was fun." Said Reid contently when he walked in his and Caleb's room and sat down on their bed and stretched.
Caleb smiled and walked over to their bed and sat down as well and took off his shoes and clothes.
"Yeah, it was." The eldest said in agreement.
Reid and Caleb have been together for a month and two weeks now. They've never been happier and people could tell easily, especially with Reid since he's so bubbly and giddy now. And Reid was never bubbly and giddy, plus he was much more expressive than before.
Reid smirked. "You know what would make tonight even better?"
Caleb knew that look. It was that mischievous I'm-up-to-something look. "What?"
"You making love to me." Reid said softly while looking at him playfully.
Caleb smiled as their faces got slowly closer. "Is that so?" He said teasingly.
"Mmhmm, been wanting you. Please, C." He whined submissively.
Reid seemed like a different person when with Caleb. He would beg, whine, mewl, be cute, and compliant when it came to Caleb. He bowed down to everything Caleb said, but only to Caleb was he like that. Other than Caleb, Reid listened to no one, nor did he care what anyone thought. So to see him turn a complete 180 in personality from the tough, headstrong Reid to this completely compliant, totally submissive, listen to everything you say and bend to your every word Reid was just incredible, even for Caleb it was still incredible to see since he hasn't seen this side of Reid that much himself until they started dating.
Caleb grinned. "Alright, baby."
Reid grinned happily.
An hour and a half of making love later~
Reid draped over the front of Caleb's sitting form panting with a sated grin as he caught his breath from the grade A sex.
"God, I don't know how you're so good at sex. It's illegal for it to feel that good."
Caleb chuckled and rubbed his back lovingly. "I guess I was just made to pleasure you, perfectly intune to your body's needs."
Reid smiled as he nuzzled into Caleb's shoulder, his heart melting at the romantic words. "I love that,"
Reid lifted himself up from Caleb's lap and laid down on their bed, Caleb laying down too. Once he did, Reid snuggled up with him and nuzzled his chest.
"Love you." Reid said softly.
"Love you, too, puppy."
Reid's heart melted and swooned again and he let out a happy hum. Yep, completely different Reid when it came to Caleb.

The next day all four boys were hanging out in the courtyard of their college campus all standing at the railing of a pond, a few ducks swimming in it. Caleb was next to Reid, Reid next to Tyler, and Tyler next to Pogue. Tyler was telling a story, Reid and Pogue smirking from it.
"No way, Ty." Reid chuckled.
"Way! I beat her by 3 seconds." Tyler stated matter-a-factly.
"Against Lauren? She's one of the fastest swimmers on the female swim team. It's a little hard to believe you won against her without magic. It's tough for even me and Caleb to hold our own in the pool against her." Pogue stated incredulously.
Tyler rolled his eyes beginning to get annoyed by his unbelieving friends. "But I didn't. You know as well as I do that I don't use magic on little stuff like that very often like some of us." On the last three words Tyler looked at Reid disapprovingly.
Reid smirked more as if he wasn't getting reprimanded. "What's up." He said in a smartass way.
Tyler rolled his eyes again while Pogue just laughed. Caleb was listening to them barely. He couldn't really focus on them because of how tired he felt. He was slumped heavily against the white railing around the pond, giving up a few minutes ago to keep his eyes open. He then started to feel dizzy, his head spinning. Then…..he was falling, falling to the opposite side his friends were at next to him. He was so out of it, he couldn't grab the railing to steady himself and just continued to fall. Until he felt arms around him. He guessed they stopped him from falling just before he hit the hard ground. Then everything went away and he was out.
Reid caught Caleb just in time before his head collided with the hard cement of the ground. "Whoa, Caleb, hey, are you okay?" Reid asked with wide shocked eyes, now kneeling on the ground with Caleb's upper half in his arms and lap.
Tyler and Pogue rushed to them and kneeled on the ground as well looked down at their leader.
"Whoa, dude….did he just faint?" Tyler mused in a bit of panic.
Reid groaned feeling helpless. "Damn it! I knew I should've listened to myself."
Pogue and Tyler gazed over at him. "What do you mean?" Tyler asked.
"He told me this morning that he felt unusually tired. I told him to stay in bed, but he reassured me that it wasn't that bad. He told me he would be okay." Reid said growing increasingly distressed.
Pogue laid a hand on Reid's shoulder comfortingly. "Hey, don't blame yourself. You couldn't have known it would get this bad. Let's take him back inside and in bed. Everything will be okay."
Reid took a deep breath and Pogue helped Reid get Caleb back inside to their dorm, Tyler helping with opening doors for them. Once they got to Reid and Caleb's dorm, Pogue and Reid laid Caleb down carefully on their bed. Reid then began taking off Caleb's clothes not fit for wearing in bed starting with his shoes and socks. As he did so he turned to Pogue and Tyler.
"Thanks, I got it from here."
Pogue and Tyler agreed with worried eyes and started making their way out of the room.
"Tell us when he wakes up." Pogue said before they left.
Reid nodded and continued to get Caleb ready to go under the covers. Caleb was only in his boxers now and Reid gently got the covers out from under him and placed them over him with care and stayed there by his side the whole time. An hour later while Reid was sitting up on their bed next to Caleb reading a book, Caleb finally awoke. Caleb groaned first and shifted to his side now facing Reid, who's eyes widened and immediately put the book on the nightstand and shifted to lay on his side as well to face Caleb and laid a hand on the side of his face and stroked soothingly.
"Oh, Caleb, thank God you're awake. I was about to take you to the nurse. Are you okay? What happened?" He asked softly.
Caleb brought a hand up to lay on top of Reid's that was on his face and met his eyes.
"I fainted, didn't I?"
"Yeah, scared the absolute hell outta me."
Caleb smiled apologetically. "Sorry, I was hoping I wouldn't faint, but I guess I failed on that. I thought I could power through. I should've listened to you."
Reid pouted. "Ya damn right, you should've."
Caleb chuckled at Reid's half playful, half serious sassiness and slipped Reid's hand off his face and held his hand over the covers. "I'm fine now. I was just so tired, I guess my body just went into forced sleep mode."
Reid nibbled on his lower lip in thought. "But you didn't lose that much sleep last night for that to happen. It's never happened before, actually."
That put Caleb deep into thought too. "Yeah, you're right. I don't know then. I can't think of anything different I did that would cause me to be tired, dizzy, and then faint."
Reid perked at that. "You got dizzy? Now, that worries me for sure. You don't just get dizzy from nothing. Something's going on."
"Maybe I'm just sick and caught something." Caleb ventured.
Reid nodded considering it. "Yeah, maybe. I'll take you to the nurse and make sure. I'm gonna call Tyler and Pogue. They wanted to see you when you woke up."
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"His body shows no signs of infection or any sickness. According to our tests, he's completely healthy. My guess for his symptoms is just a change in life style. Very minor and harmless, and an easy fix." Their college nurse said as she and Caleb walked back into the waiting room.
"Okay, thanks." Pogue said before she left them.
"Well, that's good news, at least." Caleb commented as they left the nurse's office.
"Yeah, but there's obviously something wrong with you. There's always a reason for fatigue, dizziness, and fainting. You didn't do anything new recently either, right?" Tyler asked.
"Not that I'm remembering, no. None that would cause something like this. Maybe we just need to think on it more to find the answer." Caleb responded.
"Just hope it doesn't happen again." Reid said softly.
Caleb slipped his hand in Reid's and rubbed the back of his hand with his thumb in comfort, knowing Reid felt scared for him.
"Don't worry, I'll try my hardest to assure it doesn't."
Reid griped Caleb's hand back in response and laid his head on his shoulder as they walked down the hall. Whatever was wrong with Caleb, Reid swor to stop it. And he knew Tyler and Pogue were going to be right with him every single step of the way.

End chap. 1
Ooh, now things get interesting from here. How do you like it so far? This is basically my idea on what the second movie should be like, minus the boys love of course. xD It's highly unlikely they would put boys love in the actual sequel, though, that would be awesome if it was since it's super cute. xD Anyways, in the next chapter the sons finally figure out why Caleb is experiencing fatigue, dizziness, and fainting, soon after, Caleb's symptoms hit him again which made the decision for the sons to get help from someone magically knowledgeable immediately. They go to the best person for this situation, Caleb's mom. Once they are told more of what's happening and what they must do next, things get serious as it grows into a race against time to save Caleb's life, but is Caleb's life the only one in jeopardy? See ya next time. ^ - '
