Warning: Boy/Boy love. Yaoi, shounen-ai. Two boys/men making out and smexing.~ Don't like, don't read. Simple. Ben is 17 in this, and Kevin is 18... I think. Let's just say somewhere around that age. Rated M for possible language use and lemon, probably later on in the story.

Disclaimer: I do not own Ben 10, nor any of its characters. And I make no money at all from this.

Ben 10 © MOA (Man of Action)

Chapter 1

He hates me, he loves me.

He hates me.

He loves me.

He hates me.

He loves me.

That was what went through a certain green-eyed brunet's head, as the dark red petals of a thorned rose fell to the ground. A quiet, but long sigh escaped the brown-haired's lips, and then a slightly tanned hand brushed through that silky auburn hair. Now his thoughts drifted from his crush to his alien watch. It had been years since Ben had last used the omnitrix, but he was still wearing it, he always had been, but truth be told? He was secretly hoping that some action would come one day.

And then his dream came true.

The green and black alien-tech watch suddenly beeped. And not just once. No. It was way too much for Ben to be able to count, but he was excited. Maybe, today. Maybe there was finally going to be some action.

And, boy was he right. A DNAlien burst through his door, soon followed by a lot more of his companions. The brunet glared for a minute, then got ready to slam down on his watch, but was stopped by the red light that had now replaced the green.

He swore.

He swore loudly, then he was running. Running for his life. Not really looking in front of him, the teenage ran into someone, causing him to stumble backwards, and land on his backside. He looked up, eyes a bit wide, hoping that he did not just run into a DNAlien. Relief washed over his face as he noticed it was not one of them, but it was quickly replaced by fear as his eyes met endless black ones.

He had ran into Kevin. He mentally swore at himself. Why wasn't he more careful? God, why? A chuckle came from the man in front of him, and Ben quickly pulled himself up, not daring to look up. He knew the DNAliens were probably getting closer and closer by the minute, so he just huffed, pointed behind him at the quickly incoming uglyass creatures, then looked at his watch. Cheers, it's on! He turned into Big Chill, and froze the ground, making the slimeball-throwing aliens slip and slide all over the room. The young black haired adult rose an eyebrow, then pressed his hand against the metal bar and absorbed the texture, covering his face and muscly body in it.

The now metal-covered male dashed towards the aliens. Something seemed off about this, the last one, all the way at the end. He wasn't like the others, he looked almost like 77. But then, much more advanced. And... Different.

"BEN! LOOK OUT!" The ebony haired man screamed, running into Big Chill at full speed and getting hit by the laser shot instead. He struggled for just a minute, before he stilled, and the metal protection disappeared from around him. The frost-breathing Xenomorph's eyes widened, and he was back to ben instantly, rushing to Kevin's side.

Gwen would kill him. Gwen would soooo kill him. The fact that both of them had a crush on this certain man would kill him even more. The Xenomorph groaned, transformed into Jetray and grabbed the older male, before flying off as fast as he could.

"You could try to lose some of that weight." Jetray muttered, falling down a few meters before landing in his room, dropping Kevin onto his bed, and turning back to his Ben-self. He could see a smirk plastered on the other boy's face, and that made the brunet pissed. Very pissed.

"They're called muscles, Benji. Maybe you should get some too." That did it. Ben had gone through all the trouble to save that hot-headed son of a bi- He took a deep breath, refused to answer the other and simply ignored him.

"Aww, Tennyson. You know I'm just teasing you." The raven haired boy rolled his eyes, sliding off the bed. Fortunately for him, the laser shot didn't really hurt him, but they had to take care of that advanced 77 clone. Kevin suddenly realised where he was. He was in Ben's room. It was relatively big, housed a large plasma TV and a laptop. His bed was a two-person's bed, and his whole room was painted in the same green as the Xenomorph's jacket. Kevin's smirk turned into a grin and he turned around to face Ben.

"A bit obsessed with the color green, Benji?" Kevin teased the brunet, poking his side. What happened next surprised Kevin.

The boy had made a squeak.

He had squeaked.

Oh, hell. That was something he could bug the teen about forever.

"Tennyson. What was that sound right there?" The black haired man said, forcing Ben to look at him. The younger boy squirmed under his look, then suddenly pushed him away.

"Y-you surprised me... Is all..." he mumbled, walking past Kevin without a single look back. Kevin couldn't help but laugh. Why hadn't he taped that? God, he regretted not having taped it. But how could he have known? Maybe he should poke the kid again sometime and tape it then. A grin spread on the man's face again.

Noticing that Ben had left the room, Kevin followed him, and together they went in search for Gwen, Ben's cousin, and Kevin's ex. It was obvious though, that Gwen still liked the ebony haired man. He could see her green eyes trying to get into his pants, and that's what amused Kevin so much.

What he didn't know, though, was that Ben also had a crush on him. If Kevin ever found out, Ben would be teased for the rest of his life. The older man blinked as he realized he had slowed down, then looked around for Ben. Seeing a green jacket in the distance, Kevin ran towards it and caught up with Ben.

"So... We're gonna' find Gwen, get rid of that advanced 77 clone -I'll call it 88, since they all seem to increasy by 11- and continue our vacation. That was the plan, right?" The black haired male asked, looking towards Ben. The brunet was surprised that he hadn't noticed the way Kevin's voice had matured much more over the past seven years. But, he supposed it was obvious.

"Yep. That's pretty much it."

P.S.: Oookay. Sorry if it's a bit short, or if it seems rushed. I'm just in a bit of a hurry, since I need to get off the computer soon and study... and that's why I won't have the chance to finish this today. Exams are a real pain in the ass sometimes. AHEM. Either way, thanks for reading through this, and I promise you it'll get much more interesting the further the story goes.
