CHAPTER 1
Benjamin Tennyson, a now 15 year old high school student, waits anxiously for the arrival of the Rustbucket on their driveway.
"I wonder what's taking grandpa so long."
He couldn't wait to get back on the road with his grandpa Max and his cousin Gwen.
Gwen… That's right they were just cousins nothing more, and that fact bothered him the most. It was just a crush back when they were 10, he thought that he would eventually get over it, but the exact opposite had happened. He never expected that the admiration he had for her could turn into love.
He heard the screech of tires outside causing him to leap from the couch. The sound of a knock sent him running to the door, but to his disappointment only his grandfather stepped out of the RV.
"Ben it's great to see you again it's been a while."
He effortlessly picked him up into a tight bear hug. A huge grin splayed across his face.
"Uh yeah grandpa…. Could you please put me down? It's getting kind of hard to breathe"
"Oh sorry"
"No its fine, after all it has been 5 years"
"Whoa! That long already? I guess I have lost track of time"
Max placed his hand on the back of his head and smiled innocently.
Yeah that long. How could he not count every waking moment he wasn't spending with the girl of his dreams?
He was forcing himself not to ask, but he just had to know why she wasn't here right now.
"Hey grandpa where's Gwen?"
"She isn't here yet. We'll stop by her place once you get your bags"
"Alright then let me just grab my stuff"
Ben ran into the house, grabbed his suitcases and rushed outside.
"That was quick. Aren't we excited to see Gwen?" Max grinned.
A hint of red was noticeable on Ben's cheeks, although his grandfather was far too occupied with loading in his things to have seen it.
"Seriously grandpa I just want to spend my summer on the Rustbucket again"
"Sure you do. " He remarked sarcastically
Ben rolled his eyes and ignored the statement all together.
"By the way where are your folks?"
"They've gone to work already"
"Is that so?"
"Yup. Hoping to talk to them?"
"Yeah sort of. Well, we better get going don't want to keep Gwen waiting now do we?"
He gave Ben a playful wink then climbed into the RV.
Man, grandpa is getting on my nerves.
Ben took a seat on the same place where they used to hang around until another alien wreaked havoc. Bored he reached into his pocket and took out his music player. He plugged in his earphones and selected a random song to play.
Silence filled the air as he listened to the intro and slowly fell asleep. Seconds later he felt like he was watching a music video in his head, his mind was filled with the memories he had with Gwen.
The images stopped when he was sent crashing to the floor with the RV's sudden halt.
"Hey Ben, you alright back there? We're here"
The pain he felt was completely forgotten, because what mattered most to him right now was seeing her again.
"Gwen"
