AU & FUTURE-FIC (not really it's just set in senior year). DON'T LIKE, DON'T READ!

In this story, Benny and Ethan have never met, Sarah and Erica are just a couple of hot, bitchy high school girls (and the same age as the guys [but they don't really have anything to do with this story]), and Rory is … well Rory. No supernatural stuff.

Once again, this is a Benny/Ethan story! If you don't like, why do you keep reading my stories? If you do like, THEN THANK YOU!

Still don't own MBAV :(

For all you Bethan-lovers, I bring you A Friend Like Rory

Benny POV:

Just great. First day of senior year, and I'm late. Entering the principal's office, I groan at the line of student's waiting to get their schedules. Looks like I'm not the only late kid this year. I smile as I see my friend Rory walk towards me from the front of the line, a huge smile on his face. He's one of the few friends I'll allow myself to have. Other than him and a couple girls who I talk to every now and then, I really keep to myself, which is the way I like it.

"Dude, whaaaaaaaazup?" Rory practically screams in my ear. I just shake my head and look at him.

"Besides being happy that this is our last year in this hell-hole and being late on the first day, not much."

"Yeah, I figured you'd be late so I got your schedule," he says, shuffling through the papers in his hands and handing it to me. "I looked and we got all our classes together this year and lunch!" he said excitedly. I smiled until I realized he was holding another piece of paper in his hands besides his own schedule.

"What else you got there?" I asked, curiosity getting the better of me.

"Oh my friend asked me to grab his schedule too since he said he was gonna be late making sure his sister got to school."

"I never really see you hang out with anyone besides me and those two chicks…"I say, voice trailing off in confusion as we step into the hall.

"Dude, I've hung out with him since like forever, not to mention that you and him have had lockers next to each other since freshman year," Rory said, rolling his eyes at me. I just shrug, not really caring anymore. What's some unknown dude to me right? "Ethan dude what's up!" Rory yelled, pulling me out of my thoughts. Looking up I see a dark haired guy walking towards us, running his fingers through his hair with one hand and fixing his bag with the other.

"Hey Rory," he says, smiling at the over-excited blonde. "Did you get my schedule?"

"Yeah I did, I had to get Benny's as well," he says, waving a hand in my direction as he hands him his schedule. He looks at me, a bit of a surprised look in his eyes.

"Benny," he says, looking at me with a confused expression on his face. Suddenly it lights up with understanding and a smile forms on his face. "Our lockers are next to each other! I was trying to figure out how I recognized you…"

"Yeah," is all I say, trying not to stare at him too much. He has a really good smile… I shake my head to clear my thoughts. I tune back in to the conversation.

"Ethan, we have all our classes together too!" Rory said, shaking the other guy by the shoulders excitedly, causing the dark haired angel… Angel? Where the hell did that come from? Dark haired guy. GUY. to laugh.

"That's great Rory. Let's get to class then," he said, turning around as he glanced at his schedule. I pulled my eyes away from him to see Rory shoot me a knowing smirk before full blown smiling at me. Just shrugging it off, I shove his shoulder playfully, asking what class we have first. Ethan looks up then, dark eyes sparkling slightly in the hallway lights. "You have this class with us?"

"I have all your classes I assume. Rory said me and him have all the same ones, and since you and him have all the same ones…" I let my voice trail off as he smiles at me.

"Cool. Let's go then," he says, walking away. Rory and I scramble to follow him.

Rory POV:

I can't help but smirk as I see Benny glance at Ethan during the morning classes. I knew Benny would like him. Benny denies it all the time, but I know he's at least bi, he just won't admit it, which is foolish since I am the closest thing he has to a best friend. Oh well. My smirk grows as I see Ethan quickly glance at Benny when he wasn't looking. Oh yeah. Who's the best matchmaker ever? Me. Now it's just trying to get them to admit it to themselves and each other.

Ooh devious Rory! : D
