Title: Ficlets: Of Life, Love and Power
Author: Mickey Stone
Fandom: The Covenant
Pairing/character: The Covenant Boys (Caleb Danvers, Pogue Parry, Reid Garwin, Tyler Simms; multiple pairings)
Rating: All ratings! K - M

Notes: I wanted to do a ficlet/drabble challenge on Livejournal, but I couldn't find one with prompts that interested me. So, I took a prompt table from the 1sentence challenge community and decided to use that. There will be 50 ficlets in total, of varying length and content, but ALL WILL BE SLASH! Some will be graphic, some will not, but all will be properly labelled with pairing and rating.

Each ficlet is a stand-alone piece, meaning that they are totally seperate from each other, unless otherwise stated.

And please excuse the title. It just...came to me. It might change at a later date.

Right, on to the ficlets!

Kiss
Caleb blinked. He hadn't seen that coming. Not in a million years did he ever think that Reid would render him speechless like that. The aforementioned blond seemed to be just as shocked; eyes wide and mouth working silently, trying to find something to say. Colour rose to his cheeks in an uncharacteristic display of embarrassment.

"What just happened?" Caleb asked quietly.

"Err...we argued?"

"After that."

"You called me a dumbass."

"After that."

"I called you a bastard and told you to get off my case."

"After that."

"I...err...kissed you?"

"Yeah." Caleb said. "That. Why?"

"It...seemed like a good idea at the time?"

There was an awkward silence, and then Reid took a deep breath and spoke.

"I'm gonna g—"

Before Reid could finish his sentence, Caleb's fingers had twisted in his hair and brought the blond's lips to his own. Reid let out a muffled squeak (something he'd strenuously deny later), eyes wide with shock. It didn't take long for him to melt against the older male, tongues invading each others mouths hungrily.

They parted, lips bruised and breathing harsh but still clinging to each other like their lives depended on it. They stared at each other, searching each other for their intentions.

"What was that for?" Reid said quietly.

Caleb smiled, "It seemed like a good idea at the time."
