AppleBlossom's Drabbles

[AppleBlossom]

I decided to make some drabbles for you guys! I don't know how many there will be, but I'll try and get to one hundred!! Wish me luck!

(Ace and Caleb are boyfriends. They have been together for several years. Ace is the caretaker to Caleb, Ace is known for his tough personality, being the best at any kind of sport, and generally being a bit bossy. He has extremely dark ebony hair, and warm hazel eyes. Caleb is the complete opposite to Ace. He is known for his love of books and being a complete nerd. He's quite clumsy and childish, and he wears huge black glasses which keep falling off due to his constant sneezing because of his wide range of allergies. Caleb has large, deep green eyes and messy blond hair.)

1- Books

Caleb had taken one of his many trips to the library once again. His hands full of his favourite books, they almost towered above his head. Walking up the stairs to their apartment, was hard enough, let alone carrying 10 books! His feet shuffled towards the door, finally going inside.

Suddenly, two large hands tried to grab the novels effortlessly, and but Caleb somehow managed to keep them in his grip.

"H-Hey!" Caleb cried.

"You really should carry that many books y'know." It was Ace, his strong, yet calm voice echoed in Caleb's ears 

"I can handle it!"

"I don't think you can, remember how accident-prone you are."

Ace's stern eyes rested on his.

"I'm not accident-prone!!" Caleb began walking back to his room, going a few steps before feeling a familar tickle inside his nose. He couldn't stratch it, his hands were full, plus he couldn't stop it.

"Heh.... heh- Ehh-khoo!"

His foot somehow managed to get caught in the rug, tripping him, sending him and the books flying. He landed with a thud, Ace quickly came beside him.

"You might want to rethink that judgement."

"Shut.. Shhhu- Ehhtshoo!!"  

[Zane]

haha that sounds really cute! I'm looking forward to more. thanks for writing this!

[queenie]

Mmm... I could have fun with this!

[Anonymouse]

Omigosh this is so cute. Sounds like an interesting pairing with such different personalities, but it seems to work. I love how Caleb refused help. Poor thing.

[AppleBlossom]

Aww! Thanks you guys! You're awesome, thank you for commenting!!

2- Idiot

"Heh... Eh-choo! Ehtshi!"

There it was again, that sound. Ace knew that Caleb's sneezes were a part of him, and he never wanted to change that, but seeing as Caleb wasn't helping himself by ignoring his calls to come to bed, and trying to do his work at midnight. Caleb's eyes were like headlights in the glow of the laptop screen. They looked like deep green shards of glass, from the constant sneezes. Another congested sniffle came from his scarlet nose, a light blush creeped into his smooth cheeks.

Suddenly, his eyes became like slits, lips trembling, nostils quivering. A small hand quickly clamped over his nose, inhaling as much air as he could take.

"Eeshoo!"

That's it! Ace charged out of the room, putting a large hand on Caleb's shoulder.

"Uhh... Snf! W-What?"

"Y'know what. Go to bed."

"But.. I need to finish this by tomorrow! I don't have enough time-!"

"You're coming to bed. Save it then." Ace moved away slightly, waiting for Caleb to turn off the laptop.

"I told you, I- "Eh-shoo! ..heh-choo!"

"Come on!" Ace pulled the boy into his chest, one huge, strong arm around his tiny waist. Caleb tried his hardest to squeeze and wiggle his out, with no success.

"Hey! I haven't saved it!" In a flash, Ace pressed the save button, and switched off the computer. With that, he flinged poor Caleb over his shoulder effortlessly. Caleb banged his fists against Ace's back, barely having enough energy to hurt him.

"Put me down! Put me down, NOW!"

"No, we're going to bed. You're sick."

"I can't! I need to finish this! And I'm not- Heh-ekshoo!" Ace turned and blinked at Caleb blankly. Without a word, Ace walked back to the bedroom, Caleb still on his shoulders.

"You're a... heh...HNXXT! Snf! -idiot!"

[Zane]

these are really cute! I really like the idiot one. thanks so much for writing this and I hope you write more.

[lalaland~]

wow. I love these!

[AppleBlossom]

Thanks again for reading this everyone! Comments are wonderful, and make me up on my bed!

3- Sweat

"Caleb.."

A velvet voice echoed inside the small boy's head. Darkness clouded over him, as he tried to come to his senses. He was lying down, he knew that, but where? The air surrounding him, felt like it was squeezing his head. There was so much pressure, he felt like his head was caving in. Wait...Was it? He wasn't sure.

"Caleb.. Listen."

The voice spoke again. It seemed familar, but his mind felt so numb, he just couldn't focus properly. The dark became nothing more than a strange blur. His vision was hazy, but soon the fog began to clear. A face appeared, one he had seen many times before. Obsidian, casually-rough hair, a shaped and defined face. Skin lightly tanned and smooth. Eyes, sweet sticky pools of honey that could draw you in. Lips, more soft than silk, and more sweet than a lemon sherbert. He was his secret weapon. His protecter. His Ace.

"Ace..? What's happening?"

"I don't think this is working anymore."

"W-What are you saying?!"

"....I'm breaking up with you."

His monotone voice struck cold, hard into his centre. Caleb could almost feel his heart slip down through his body, and fall to the bottom of the floor. Panic began to set in, as his chest became tighter. A hot wave of fear washed over him, which made him feel sick to his stomach.

"B-But.. But why?" He somehow managed to whisper out.

"..Everything that you do, just annoys me so much. You don't listen to me. You never so me affection, so why should I stay with you?"

"..Because I love you." There was a large pause from both of them. Silence echoed across them, before Ace spoke up.

"Too little, too late."

Caleb could feel the wetness around his eyes grow.

"Wait! I- heh..."

His head shot up off his pillow, he managed to realise that we was sleeping, before his eyes squeezed shut, and his nostils flared.

"Heh-CHOO! Heh-tsiu! Eh-choo! Ah...ah-CHOO!"

A wet congested sniff filled the bedroom. A few uneven breaths cut through the silence. Caleb noticed that his eyes and cheeks were cold with the wetness of his tears. The tears themselves had slid down his slender neck. A warmth layer of sweat rested on his brow.

"Caleb.."

The boy let out of muffled gasp, before sharply turning to face the male next to him. There he was again, amazing as always, a hand resting on his cheek, eyes still unfocused with tiredness. Caleb began to tremble madly, deep-green eyes began to surface more warm, salty tears.

In a instant, Caleb had launched himself into Ace's chest. Tiny fingers clinging onto his soft t-shirt, burying his face into the curve of his neck, Caleb just laid there and cried.

"I'm sorry Ace. I'm so sorry. I love you! I love you! Please, please don't ever leave me!!"

Caleb began uncontrollably rambling, hiccuping throughout his muffled words. Ace wrapped his arms around Caleb protectively, a large hand smoothing the boy's matted locks.

"It's ok, Caleb. It's ok. I promise I'll never leave you."

"Really? Heh... Nxht!" Caleb stifled a small sneeze into the fabric of Ace's shirt.

"Bless you."

"I'm sorry-"

"Don't apologise." Ace grinned with him, soon enough, they had both returned to their sweet dreams.

Suddenly, his eyes became like slits, lips trembling, nostils quivering. A small hand quickly clamped over his nose, inhaling as much air as he could take.

That second one was cute, but the third one - so sad! I'm so glad he was dreaming! I love Caleb's sneezes, they're so cute, especially the one he stifled against Ace's shirt.

I just wanted to mention that the last line says 'they had both returned to their sweet dreams,' but Caleb was having a nightmare. Just thought I'd point it out in case you wanted to change it.

Will we ever see Ace sneeze?

Awww! Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Yeah, I know the wording wasn't really that good at the ending, I just didn't reall know what to put!

Yes, yes. We will see Ace sneeze, I'm not gonna torture you that bad! Haha! :L

[Zane]

I love these! they're really good! I think I like the 2nd one the best still but the 3rd one was really awesome! thanks so much for writing these. I'm so looking forward to when Ace sneezes! hehehe thanks again

[RSB]

These are so cute!!! Seriously. The end of the third especially. Also love the detail about Caleb's "huge black glasses which keep falling off due to his constant sneezing" in your intro.

[OnlyInMyDreams]

Oooh.

I love these. THat last one was so sad, a bit painful to read, but the ending was sweet.

Not entirely sure what a drabble is, though.

[AppleBlossom]

I'm sorry about the wait! Exams are horrible, and I'm really busy! However I am thinking about doing another drabbles for you guys! Loving the comments through!!

4- Pencil

It was that time of day again. The time when students rushed through the hallways, the slamming of classroom doors, and the tapping of dozens of feet on the wooden floors.

Class had began in their university that afternoon. History class was where both Ace and Caleb were. Caleb stared silently out of the window, watching the world go by, while Ace sat quietly next to him, listening to the teacher. Caleb's eyes quietly wondered over the trees, gazing at the sunlight dancing over the emerald leaves. He sighed a little, listening to the same old chatter he had heard so many times before. However, at that moment, he heard something, he hadn't for a long time.

"Eh-Hnggxt!"

A huge hand was wrapped around Ace's mouth and nose. His index finger and thumb gripped the end of his long, pointed. Ace's yellow rimmed pencil knocked and clattered onto the floor, by the force of the sneeze. The harsh stifle echoed in Caleb's ears. His emerald eyes were wide as saucers, underneath his black frames. Had he heard that right? Did Ace, -wait his Ace just sneeze? He couldn't remember the last time he did that, let alone remember what it sounded like!

"What?" Ace's strong, commanding voice shook Caleb out of his gaze.

"You just sneezed." Caleb blinked.

"Yes, I did." Ace replied, blankly. Reaching down, he picked up the thin pencil with his fingers.

"B-But you never sneeze!" Caleb cried, quickly checking that the teacher still had their back towards them.

"Well I did. So don't worry your pretty, little head about it!" Smirking, he poked Caleb's forehead with the rubber end of the pencil.

Pouting, Caleb quickly returned back to his original position, head in his hand, watching the outside once more. His eyes, gazed as his paper, when he saw a flicker of movement. A beaming smile quickly spread across his face, when he saw a tiny pencil-marked heart in the corner of his work.
