Anthology of Love

Disclaimer: I don't own Xiaolin Showdown, or any of the characters in it, so...don't say I didn't tell you that they weren't.

Warning(s):Ok, cursing, malexmale relationship, strong references to sex, but no actual sex scenes, and...probably general stupidity, corniness, or idiocy aside from that.

Notes: Well, lately I've been seeing a good deal of those one-word prompts for short/one-sentence stories, and so I figured I'd give it a try. I did a few, and found something out about myself: I really like them! XD So this would be the result.

491. Impact-

Chase was sure his young lover had absolutely no idea how sheerly massive his impact on the man's life was.

492. Indirectly-

A tiny, obscure reference to a man by the name of Chase Young in a textbook indirectly and forever altered the course of a young, goth teenager's life.

493. Disgusted-

Jack was a creepy little teenager, and he absolutely disgusted Chase.

His pasty white skin, those freakish, red eyes and clearly unnatural red-orange hair, and his ridiculous, excitable behavior: all a revolting mix of traits that came together to form an equally-as-revolting human being!

...or, at least, that's what the warlord tried to tell himself.

494. Trust-

Jack would always do anything Chase asked him to do; it was that blind trust that was a part of true love.

495. Losing-

Chase had never feared losing something or someone in a long time, but now, losing his young lover had become his greatest nightmare, and the very thought was terrifying.

496. Frightens-

Many things could frighten Jack, an admitted coward with a pain allergy, but none more so than having Chase taken away from him, by the man's own choice to reject him or otherwise.

497. Actually-

It was actually surprising how much an immortal martial arts genius now relied on a weak, clumsy technophile for love and attention.

498. Supplement-

Being with Chase truly supplemented Jack's invention life, inspiring him to create more and better things to attain honest praise from his lover.

499. Superiority-

Chase loved the superiority he experienced in his relationship with Jack, the ultimate submission and control the teen practically handed to him on a silver platter.

500. Receive-

Jack loved to be on the receiving end of his relationship with Chase, to have all of that power and passion given to only him by the most important man in his life every single time the warlord made love to him.

A/N:

Since it's a special occasion, halfway to my ultimate goal of 100 chapters, I decided to make this chapter themed, and the theme is the progression of relationship between Chase and Jack from both of their perspectives.

Impact and Indirectly are centered around how they affect each other, Disgusted and Trust are about early stages, like before they're a couple, Losing and Frightens are about how they'd feel about being separated, Actually and Supplement are centered around their co-dependency, and finally, Superiority and Receive are basically how they feel about their respective roles of dominance and submission.

So...I thusly declare this The Relationship-Fluff Chapter, and simultaneously declare it over.

Thanks for reading, and I hope you liked the chapter! :D
