Tyler yawned from his spot on Reid's shoulder, watching Caleb and Pogue play Guitar Hero had gotten dull. Reid had even taken to trying to distract the two, by singing along with the song off tune.
"Reid! Quit it! You're messing me up!" Caleb cried.
The blonde laughed as he began to sing again, making Tyler joining in as they sang a horrible rendition of 'Deck the Halls.'
Caleb finally threw his guitar down as he lunged at Tyler, covering the boy's mouth.
"Why? Why are you caving in to his evil ways?" Caleb asked, as Tyler laughed.
Pogue was still playing the game, making Reid even laugh, before Caleb looked behind him to see that he was in the red.
"Shit!"
The two on the couch grinned as they shared a small high five. When Pogue had beaten Caleb, the two shut the game off.
"You two win okay, we quit." Caleb said, making Tyler stand up.
"Where are you two going?" Pogue asked.
"We're going to go take a nap." Caleb said, as he pulled Tyler up the stairs.
"We are?"
"Yes Baby Boy we are. I want to try something." Caleb said.
Tyler nodded his head as Caleb led him to his room. When they got into the room, Caleb's eyes closed. Tyler shivered when he felt a large pulse of Power sweep the room, spreading into the tiniest corners of the room.
Caleb arms wrapped around Tyler, the younger boy leaning into Caleb's chest.
"Cay…what're you doing?" Tyler asked meekly.
"Just testing something." Caleb said, "Now lay down."
Tyler nodded as he sat on Caleb's bed. He curled on the bed when he laid back. Caleb lying next to him as Tyler's eyes drifted shut.
Caleb watched the boy as he slept, Reid and Pogue coming in not even an hour later.
"What's going on Cay?" Reid asked, shivering, "The room smells like the Power."
"I'm trying to see if Chase can get in."
Pogue nodded as his eyes went black, his own power adding to Caleb's. Reid's turning black at the same time as he added his power to the mix.
"Four times the power to his two." Pogue said, "It'll be hard as hell for him to do it."
Caleb nodded as he ran his fingers through Tyler's hair, seeing the boy smile in his sleep, leaning into the touch.
"It's so fucked up that he's using Tyler's fears against him." Reid said, as he sat next to Tyler.
"It's fucked up that he's invading Tyler's dreams like he is." Caleb said, "The next time I see him I'm going to fucking butcher him."
"Not without our help." Pogue said, grinning, "Reid ascends tomorrow afternoon."
Reid stuck his tongue out at Pogue.
"Make fun of the odd one with the afternoon birth okay?"
"I plan on it!"
"Ass."
"Idiot."
"Jerk."
"Asshat."
"Fuckass."
Pogue laughed at Reid, who smirked, knowing he'd won.
"If you guys are done being jerks, what are we going to do?"
"We could go to Nicky's." Reid suggested.
"Chase will be there. I don't want him trying anything."
"It's a public place Cay, he won't try shit." Pogue said.
The older boy bit his middle finger, he nodded his head.
"We don't let Tyler out of our sight though, agreed." Caleb said, as the other boys nodded.
Caleb sighed as he nudged Tyler.
"Baby Boy, come on, time to get up." Caleb said, as the power vanished.
Tyler's eyes opened slowly as he looked at Caleb, a smile still on his face.
"Chase?" Caleb asked.
"No Chase…just dreams." Tyler said, as Caleb smiled at him.
"Good, then our plan works." Caleb said, "Which inevitably sucks, but until we get rid of Chase, it's going to have to work."
The other two nodded as Tyler snuggled into Caleb.
"Do you feel up to going to Nicky's?" Caleb asked.
Tyler's eyes widened as he sat up and away from Caleb.
"I thought we decided that Nicky's was a bad idea. He and Aaron will be there."
"He won't try anything in public." Caleb said, "Nicky's is crowded, he wouldn't do anything."
"Plus we aren't letting you out of our sight." Pogue said.
"You'll be safe Ty." Reid told the boy.
Tyler looked at them before nodding his head, "Sure."
"Alright, here are the rules though." Caleb said, "No hustling Aaron, no getting into any unnecessary fights, and absolutely no drinking."
Reid's face went sour at that.
"Jeez, ruin my fun why don't you."
Caleb gave Reid a look, the blonde sighing.
"I know, I know. Chase is a psychotic killer with daddy issues that we don't need to taunt. Ya da ya da." Reid said, rolling his eyes.
"Exactly, so we need to be as nonthreatening as possible." Caleb said.
"B-But if you guys seem nonthreatening then he might try something to test the water." Tyler said.
The other boys looked at him as they nodded.
"Maybe not too nonthreatening then." Pogue said, "Point is, let's not piss him off."
Tyler snorted, making the boys look at him again.
"He's going to be pissed with whatever we do. He hates you three and he's infatuated with me, remember? He's also pissed that I'm going out with Caleb." Tyler said, "How do you think he's going to feel when he finds out Caleb took my virginity? He'll fly off the handle, and you guys know he will."
"Tyler does raise some good points Caleb." Pogue said.
"Okay then we try not to piss him off more than he already is!" Caleb groaned.
"The room is filled with smart asses today." Reid sung.
"Don't I know it?" Caleb said, as he stood up.
Tyler slid off the bed to stand as well as they stood in a circle.
"Okay, so we'll go to Nicky's for an hour or so and then come back."
"Ugh Cay, that totally tanks!" Reid whined.
"What's more important Reid, Tyler or Nicky's?"
Reid glared at the boy, and offended look on his face.
"If you have to ask me that, then you don't know me at all Caleb." Reid snapped.
"Well that's what it comes down to." Caleb told the boy.
"Fine fearless damn leader."
"Thanks." Caleb said.
Reid nodded before they walked out of the bedroom. The boys took their time getting downstairs. Caleb snatching his keys off the table as they walked to the mustang.
As Tyler slid into the passenger seat, he had a bad feeling sit in the bottom of his stomach.
