Pairings: Covenant/Lita

Ch.5

The rest of the school day passed quickly, but all of the sons of Ipswich were tense after they had seen firsthand Chase's display of his power. Lita had been right, and they were even more protective of her after finding out that Chase had been stalking her all day.

She refused to leave the dorm until after she did her laundry and washed Caleb's clothes as well. She saw the jealous looks that the other guys gave Caleb when they thought she wasn't looking.

"All right, now we can leave," she said while carrying a bag of essentials and Caleb's clean clothes.

"You're riding with me," Caleb told her wrapping an arm around her waist protectively.

"We'll go get the pizza," Reid said motioning towards him and Tyler.

"What about Pogue? He'll be by himself," Lita said as a bad feeling started settling over her when she saw Pogue holding his motorcycle helmet.

'Chase could hurt him or even kill him easily when he's riding that,' she thought before taking his helmet away from him.

"You're riding with Caleb and I," she told him while hiding his helmet behind her back.

Pogue shook his head and laughed it off even though he could see some worry in her eyes. "I'll be fine, Lita. I'll be careful and take my time," he said trying to reach for his helmet. However, he froze when she put her hand on his chest over his heart and her pendant glowed a dark blue.

"You know he has powers like you guys and he could easily seriously injure you when riding your motorcycle. Please just ride with Caleb and I. We can get your motorcycle another time," she said softly as the bad feeling grew in her heart as she thought of what might happen.

He gave a sigh before wrapping his hand around hers. "I'll ride with you guys. Reid and Tyler you two be careful," he told them in a firm voice since he had been able to truly feel how much Lita was worried about him.

The glow in her necklace made his heart skip a beat though because she was truly the key to saving all four of them from dying a wrongful death because of their powers. She was their stabilizer.

"We will, come on Reid," Tyler said before the five of them split up and went to two separate cars. Caleb gave a little frown when Pogue pulled Lita into the backseat. So Caleb was up front driving alone.

They took the road that Pogue would have taken to get to Caleb's house, and the boys were shocked to see Chase had hidden off the side of the road. Lita flipped him off as they drove by him since she had had a bad feeling that he would have been there.

"I told you so," Lita muttered still glaring out the window at the area where Chase had hidden.

"We'll need to do something about him soon," Caleb muttered looking in the rearview mirror at Pogue.

"I want to help," Lita said before the guys immediately shook their heads.

"I'm still going to help," she grumbled to herself before they pulled into the driveway of Caleb's house. The beauty of the home would not be lost to her if ever. She was the first one of the car and running towards the house. She wondered if Caleb's mother would be awake, but the woman was passed out on the sofa again this time too. 'I want to talk to her once,' she thought before rushing to the kitchen.

Pogue and Caleb took their time entering the house, but they laughed when they spotted Lita holding a frying pan in the kitchen. She was practicing swinging it as if she was going to use it on somebody.

"What are you doing?" Pogue questioned while Caleb walked around grabbing essentials for when the pizza would be here.

"I'm practicing my swing since I'm going to bash Chase in the head with this," Lita said with all seriousness. She never messed around with frying pans. Mina taught her well that frying pans are the best weapons against jerks.

Reid and Tyler soon entered the house as well carrying a few delicious smelling pizzas. They did not even question why Lita was swinging a frying pan, which Pogue was still trying to get from her at random times.

He almost got hit by the pan on accident. However, Reid and Tyler were able to distract her from her weapon with the food. Reid smirked when she gave them both kisses on the cheek for the food. They too smirked at the sight of the pendant glowing.

"Movie night," Tyler suggested and soon he and Reid were carrying Lita up the stairs, which she was not too happy about, but she dealt with it.

Caleb and Pogue followed while rolling their eyes at the trio. They carried the food and plates up to Caleb's room, where the movies would be watched. Pogue and Caleb felt a twinge of jealousy hit when Reid and Tyler were sitting with Lita in between them on the bed already.

"I'm not a teddy bear," Lita yelled as she tried to struggle to get out of Tyler and Reid's grips so she could get food. She pouted at Pogue and Caleb, who just chuckled at her obstacle.

"Give each of us a kiss and we'll let you get food," Reid said while smirking at her pout. His eyebrows raised as she gave back her own challenging look. He was shocked at how quickly she turned back to him, kissed him on the lips and then kissed Tyler.

"Freedom," she shouted as if she was riding with William Wallace into a fight. She jumped up to grab some pizza and a plate, but both Caleb and Pogue moved them out of the way.

"Not you too," she grumbled before kissing them both on the lips before stealing the pizza and a plate. "Now you have to do something for me before you guys get food," she told them with a devious smile.

"What kiss you back?" Caleb asked and he felt his eyes start to dark when he saw her smirk.

"Well I was going to suggest you guys sit around shirtless, but if you're too chicken," she muttered looking at each of them wondering if they'd rise to the challenge. She knew they were on the school's swim team, and she wanted to see what all that swimming did for them.

"Not a chicken," Reid grumbled and he as well as the other guys took off their shirts.

Lita felt her heart stutter as she took in their bodies. 'I'm in heaven,' she thought before happily giving them some pizza. She also happily kicked their shirts under Caleb's bed so they would stay shirtless throughout the night. She was enjoying the view too much to tell them where she hid their shirts.

The next morning was interesting, as she found herself snuggled up in bed with all of the boys. She looked down to see the pendant glowing a beautiful blue color as she noticed that all of the boys had comfortable expressions on their sleeping faces.

'Oh yeah, I need to ask them about this because I know more magic is going on here,' she thought before chuckling quietly when Tyler snuggled his face into her hip.

"Guys, I know it's the weekend, but it's time to wake up and talk about some stuff," she whispered softly as she ran her hands through Reid and Pogue's hair.

Some unhappy grumbles and tighter snuggles ensued before the boys finally started to wake up. Caleb surprised her by pulling her into a good morning kiss, which got him a few glares from the other boys. She smiled happily at him before noticing the looks from the others.

"Fine, come here," she said with a shake of her head before giving the other three a kiss of their own.

"Now that that is done, we should enjoy some breakfast and talk about this beautiful necklace that enjoys glowing every time I'm around you four," she said with a wink and smile before jumping out of the bed and racing to the kitchen.

"Last one to the kitchen doesn't get extra pancakes," she shouted while rushing down the stairs.

"That's not fair," Reid shouted as he was soon to follow her downstairs.

"That was the best I've ever slept," Caleb muttered and Pogue gave him a grin.

"You're ascending soon so I'm sure, you know we need to tell her about that too," Tyler muttered and Caleb gave a sigh.

"We'll tell her everything after breakfast, she has a right to know," Caleb said with finality before they joined the others downstairs.

Breakfast passed without any incidents, but Caleb's mother did wander into the kitchen. A gasp of shock left her when she saw the pendant hanging around Lita's neck.

The biggest smile appeared on her face before she rushed over to hug Caleb, and the woman even hugged Lita before rushing to go grab a bottle of champagne to celebrate.

"Well it seems this is more important than I know," Lita whispered even though she was happy that Caleb's mother was so ecstatic at her presence around the boys.

"Come on, we'll tell you everything now," Caleb said wrapping an arm around her waist, then he led her and the others towards the study.

He took a seat on the biggest armchair in the room, and he pulled her onto his lap. "You'll want to be comfortable for this talk," he told her with a wink and she just rolled her eyes.

"Well I'm definitely comfortable, so how about we start at the beginning? Why do you guys have powers and what's my significance in all this? I'm not complaining, just curious," she replied before looking at all of the other guys.

"Our families have always had this power, but only in the men of the family. However, every time we use our powers, it takes away our life force," he began to explain with the other guys filling in certain points at different times.

"And here is where you come in, there has been a prophecy that there will be a center for the men in this family one generation. The center gives us parts of her soul and we give her parts of ours, and by doing so our magic no longer kills us. Our magic is then strengthened and harnessed in safer ways. The center also becomes protected by our powers because of the pendant, which only one of us can remove from your neck," Caleb continued to explain until she gasped in surprise.

"So that's what happened when Chase grabbed me and then the pendant shocked him," Lita exclaimed with wide eyes.

"Did he harm you?" Pogue shouted and acted as if he was ready to stand up and do something, but when she shook her head, he calmed down a bit.

"There used to be another family in Ipswich with magic, but we thought they were dead. It seems Chase is part of that family, but I'm not sure why he's here now," Tyler stated rubbing his chin a bit.

"Well you talked about ascending at a certain age, which you're about to turn, Caleb. Could there be any way he would be able to take somebody's power from them during that time?" Lita questioned while looking straight at Caleb.

"Sadly, there is a way, but he has no reason to make us give him our powers," Caleb said rubbing her cheek softly when he saw the worry in her eyes.

"The only way that would happen is if he did something to you," he finished.

"But I'm your center so I'm going to be his prime target, does that mean I can carry around a metal baseball bat at all times? I'd happily bash his face in multiple times," she said sweetly, which got her a lot of laughs from the others.

"If we weren't in a school then sure, but we are, so that'll be difficult. We just won't leave you alone and there won't be a chance for him to get to you. We will never let him hurt you," Pogue said walking over and stealing her from Caleb's lap.

"You'll be safe with us," he told her lightly rubbing their noses together.

"Well that's wonderful to hear, but I have one last important question. Is there some kind of ceremony or ritual that needs to be performed to solidify the connection between all of us? I just think the connection being finished would make it more difficult for Chase to do anything," she mentioned before trailing off softly at the looks from the others.

The looks ranged from smirks to small blushes. "Oh it's that," she whispered before nervously giggling and getting out of Pogue's hold.

"I'll just carry the baseball bat around because we haven't known each other long enough for that," she continued before yelping when Reid grabbed her around the waist.

"What's your hurry?" he questioned close to her neck.

"Bathroom, yeah, I need to go to the bathroom, too much coffee," she shouted trying to ignore the fact that her face was bright red.

"Reid, let go," she grumbled and finally she was able to run to the bathroom to escape.

"Give her time, it's not like she's going anywhere. Now what to do about Chase?" Caleb said with a laugh before the atmosphere became tense.

"We need to get rid of him before he does something, we can't give him that chance," he finished and the other sons of Ipswich nodded as their mind thought of what might happen to Lita because of Chase.
