My Own Ben

"Ugh, you human spend too much energy in mating alone, no wonder your technologies are so left behind." Grunted Albedo the next day. His body was hurt, and he didn't like it, it destroyed his almost non-exist mood.

"You can't say that you didn't enjoy it, Albedo." Gwen said lightly. She liked to see a pout was built on his face. Once an enemy always an enemy, right? She had been kidnapped once by this alien villain, and she hated that, so torturing him like this gave her some sort of pleasure.

"It wasn't a mental favor, it's totally physically, considering this teenage body was controlled by its human hormone." He said defending his pride.

"Say whatever you must, I'm leaving now." She said and checked on her appearance. She had said that she was going to pursue Albedo to help the human race as the reason to attain the access to Albedo's cell. So dangerous he was that he got an entire block for himself. The authority was careful not to let anyone fall for his sly mouth.

"Aren't you coming again?"

Gwen raised her brows high, "Ah, so you commit that you like my presence here?"

"Of course no, duh," He rolled his eyes here, "Just make sure you get more chili fries when you get here next time."

"I'll consider it. To be honest, I doubt there will be 'next time'; I don't know whether I shall come here again or not." And she closed the cell's door, made sure the automatic door had locked itself completely before stepping away. In the cell was Albedo in total bad mood.

The party was in a basement of a metropolitan building somewhere in town and Gwen had no idea where it was. Kevin was very handsome that night, and it made her smile a lot. He had got her a bouquet of red roses. He picked one and put it on her hair.

"You're beautiful." He said.

Gwen smiled to him as the answer. Wasn't he sweet? The party itself wasn't really bad as Gwen had expected. And she actually enjoyed herself. At the end of the party, around half to two in the morning, Kevin took her to his apartment, and they made a sweet love there. No hesitation for Gwen to do that, for she had done it with the one she truly loved. At least the one which look exactly as the one she loved. Kevin was happy, knowing that Gwen really loved him, and Gwen was happy that Kevin was happy. Ben and Julie were also happy, having a good movie together once again. It was just Albedo who wasn't really happy. He needed chili fries badly.

As weird as it may heard, Gwen did visit Albedo later. Regularly. It wasn't about sex. She usually came to bring him some bags of chili fries and her paper works. She told her parents that she got a friend who could help her with the paper, and being a mad scientist he was, Albedo was a great help for her papers.

Some times, when she was too tired, she would just came, opened the cell's door, held him and kissed him, gave him the paper and had a rest on his bed. While she was trying to have a rest, Albedo would mutter about how bad earth education system was while he made the paper done, not for her sake but to train his mind.

When she had nothing to do, she would just sit down on his bed, watching him mocking human race endlessly. He was a perfect reminder for Ben. When she was with Ben, she usually watched him talking, eating, doing nothing, even when he was playing his sumo games. A great advantage she got from being with Albedo was she could catch Ben's body and kiss his delicious lips whenever she felt like to.

A kiss.

Gwen had never learnt that sharing a kiss meant sharing a feeling. She didn't know that. She kept thinking that he was just a simple substitution of her favorite cousin. There was a long passionate kiss she usually had when she needed to recharge her spirit. There were light sweet kisses on the cheek when she liked to, and a hug as good bye. Truly physically, but the effects were mentally. But she just didn't know yet.

Albedo didn't really like his new imprisoned life with Gwen inside. But he didn't have any choice, didn't he? And he got chili fries. Slowly he got used to the kisses; a gesture showing affections. Typically human. She loved to catch him off guard and pull him onto bed just to kiss him on his both cheeks, eyes, sucking some areas on his neck and upper chest, and off course on his lips. While she did that, wanted or not, Albedo couldn't stop her, for usually she had her pink-glowed magic put around him. Then, he would involuntary smell her fragrant. Her hair fragrant, her skin fragrant, which made him very familiar with beauty products she used.

In that state, she usually called him her beloved Ben.

"I love you Ben, don't you know, Ben? Love you, love you, mmmhmm…" And she would continue kissing him, leaving reddish marks all over his exposed skin. Her favorite scene was him lying motionlessly on his own bed. Once she jumped onto him and asked him whether he loved her or not.

"Ben, say that you love me." She begged.

"I'm not Ben, silly human." Albedo said with rolled eyes.

"You must, or I'll have to punish you." She threatened him.

"I'm not Ben!" He said stubbornly.

"Albedo, say that you love me!"

"Yes, I love you. I love so much. Happy?" Please note that he said this under pressure.

"Yessssss….." And, since the first night with him, Gwen offered him her body again, which couldn't be rejected by his hormonal teenage body. It caused her screamed his name again and again. His. Not Ben's, but his. Albedo's.

"You're wrong." He exclaimed.

"What?"

"It wasn't Benjamin Tennyson's name you screamed last night."

"What's your point?"

"My point is you had missed your goal in… your actions with me."

Gwen realized her fault about the name. It took some seconds to make her get the point. Her face turned red and she forced her eyes to meet his red ones.

"Albedo, I guess I have to make a confession."

He raised his brows, "Confession?"

"You know that I had those dreams. With Ben inside them." She became silent for a moment. "Those dreams have changed with the ones with white haired Ben inside. His eyes are ruby red." She said cautiously.

"You don't mean that you –"

"I don't know, Albedo. I don't know." With that she left him, leaving him wondering about what had happened to her.

Human is just so dumb and shallow yet sometime complex. It was a new lesson for Albedo. Galvan didn't think a lot of relationships. They didn't spend –or rather waste energy for mating. And love? It's a new concept for him. All the Galvan needed when they're going to continue the race's generation was commitment that both parents would take care of the newborns.

There were a bunch of theories about relationships in the galaxy that Albedo had ever heard, and it wasn't easy which one was the closest with this human love. Hormonal? Instinct? Desire? Lust?

The Galvan in the human body just shook his head hard to knock some senses in. He had to make it sure. It was really irrational, inappropriate for a genius for him to be curious over an act of a single earth creature! He had to find how. But how? He was barely free to buy a single bag of chili fries by himself.

It was a lovely evening in the Seven Stars café. At one of the outside tables, Gwen was sipping her tea while watching Kevin telling her a story about a certain car of his friend that needed a special modification.

"And then I told him I had changed it into a jet machine! Can you imagine his face?" said Kevin between laughter. Gwen laughed with him, encouraged him to continue his story. Kevin was about to continue his story when suddenly they heard some screams. Automatically alarmed, both teenagers stood up and turned their face to the same direction of the street. At the corner, they saw one of Ben's alien form, the one which looked like a giant moth and a ghost.

"Ben?" Said Kevin uncertain. But then he realized the omnitrix button on the chest wasn't green. Instead, it glowed in dangerous red color.

"Albedo." Stated Kevin slowly in fury.

"What?" This time Gwen couldn't stop her mouth.

The alien came closer to them in steady movement in the air, its wings moved slowly. Kevin had put his ready-for-kicking-butt pose on, while beside him Gwen stood powerlessly. All the while, Albedo changed back into his evil Ben form and walked casually to Gwen. His eyes nailed to her emerald eyes, clearly ignoring Kevin's presence.

When he was already right in front of Gwen, Albedo just continued to see her straight in the eyes. Silent passed, and it made Kevin uneasy. He had no idea what this mad scientist was up to.

"You haven't been there for over a month." He stated monotonously in a sudden.

Gwen opened her mouth to answer, but nothing came out. Albedo glanced to Kevin, giving him a mocking acknowledgement then turned his body and walked casually to where he came from.

"Albedo, wait!" was all Gwen could say. Of course, being a conceited genius that he was, he didn't stop.

"I'm not your servant, human. You don't tell me what to do." He said coldly without even turn to see her fave or whatsoever.

"Albedo!" She called again, and this time, sure that he wouldn't stop because of his ego, Gwen ran to him, followed him. Behind her, Kevin ran too, trying to unite the messy puzzles. Suddenly Gwen made up her magic glow which allowed her to get to Albedo. She didn't care about the mass watching around.

"Albedo! What are you doing here?"

"Nothing. I'm going back to my cell. By the way, you can discard your next coming there. I'm not accepting any guest from now on."

"Albedo!"

"Gwen!" It was Kevin, he had followed them. Quickly, she made a circle shield out of her magic, covering her and Albedo. Kevin knocked the shield, looking for any explanation from his girlfriend. Gwen eyed him sadly and made the shield lifted up, away from Kevin.

"Albedo, I.. "

"Stop it, I shouldn't believe in human in the first place!"

"I should –"

"I don't want you to explain anything, no please let me –mmphmmm…" Gwen kissed him right on the lips, pressed him to the wall of the shield. Her both hands grabbed him on the cheeks. Her tears were those of transparent pearls, they were running down rapidly by her delicate cheeks. Albedo didn't open his mouth at first, but her shaking body made him to. Out of his control, his right hand found its way to her hair, and his left one on his slim waist. She was taller then he was, and she was on top of his body in the shield, tasting his flavor all over again as if it was for the first time. They looked like two wanderers who had been lost in the dessert for days without water and were struggling to get it from each other. It happened for some long seconds, before the shield broke open and Albedo in his alien form took Gwen in his arms.

Down there, Kevin watched them leaving. He didn't do anything to the crowding mass. He turned his body and ran to his green car. A hand on the wheel steer, Kevin held his cell phone close to his ear.

"Hello?" Ben said on the other edge.

"Ben, it's emergency. That bastard, that evil twin of yours! He has brainwashed Gwen or something! He's got her!"

"What?"
