Another chapter :P and sorry I took so long to update :P
Read and review, all the usual stuff ;)
And also, each chapter begins with a bethan flashback from the series :D
Day 2
Benny and Ethan were walking down the hallway, dressed as cheerleaders. Benny seemed to enjoy his feminine side, while Ethan was a little unsure of the whole idea. He did love to see his best friend as a girl. Ethan thought he looked very beautiful.
- This is your worst idea yet, he said, trying to avoid checking Benny out for the hundredth time, this underwear is riding up my butt.
- I actually find them flattering, said the taller one, chuckling at his best friend.
- I wanted to date a girl in high school, not be one! whined the shorter girl, no one's gonna buy us as chicks!
- Are you kidding they totally will! Reassured Benny, checking Ethan out as well, you're hanging a little low on the left.
After a few seconds of wresting with his fake boob, Ethan shouted:
- Who cares? This just won't work.
After that discussion, Ethan witnessed his best friend flirting with his other friend. And Benny was so good, it made Ethan like him even more!
I woke up today with a smile on my face.
Benny was the only thing on my mind.
I didn't care about the dream, or the vampire after me.
Of course, that feeling stopped when I went to the bathroom and saw the message on the mirror.
Day 2- I'll be watching.
I stopped breathing for half a minute. The shock came to me like a tidal wave, and soon the room became full of fuzzy shapes as I dropped to the floor.
When I woke up, I was on my bed. Benny was spinning in my desk chair, reading a comic book. He soon realized that I was awake.
- Oh, hey E! I was on my way to your room when I found you lying on the floor next to the bathroom. I carried you and brought you to your room.
I almost fainted again by looking at Benny. How could I have never realized that he's so cute?
But this time I didn't. I did blush when the thought of Benny carrying me in his arms came to my mind.
- Oh. Thanks Benny, I said, looking down and smiling like a thirteen year old who just spoke to her crush for the first time.
- No probs. Why did you faint?
My eyes widened as I remembered. I ran to the bathroom to check the mirror. I hoped Benny didn't see it, or else I needed to explain everything to him. And how I must date him in ten days. I'm not sure he likes me that way yet. And if he didn't in ten days… then… I don't know.
My heart stopped beating when I saw the mirror…
Nothing.
Not a trace of the message. I could've imagined the whole thing, except I know I didn't.
Day 2- I'll be watching.
I could see these words everywhere I looked. I almost fainted again, but Benny caught me.
- E, are you ok? Do you wanna not go to school today? I'll tell your mom so you can rest-
- No no, thanks Benny, but I'll go to school. I got stuff to do today, I answered as I moved Benny's hands from my waist. I really didn't want to, but...
- I'm not letting you go until you're sure you're not gonna faint again.
I chuckled.
- Benny, I'm fine. Really.
- Oh-kay, he said, releasing me.
As I got ready for school, I tried to think of everything except the message on the mirror. Then I realized it said day 2. Does that mean yesterday was day 1? I wasted an entire day because I was trying to find the person that I liked?!
That is so not fair.
If I ever meet this vampire, I'm gonna, I'm gonna…
Chicken out and ask Benny to do a magic spell on him.
And as usual, it won't work.
God I love Benny…
- Ethan! I've called you three times already! Breakfast is ready and if you don't come downstairs in the next 30 seconds there won't be any for you!
- Benny! Don't you dare eat my breakfast again! I shouted from my room.
I rushed downstairs in time to see Benny stuff a pancake in his mouth. An entire pancake. I guess his mouth is pretty big. In a cute way. I wonder what it would be if we kissed. With his big mouth, it would be great! Imagine us kissing, tongues dancing in his mouth-
- E? You've been staring at me for like 10 seconds. Eat before I do!
- Right, I said shaking my thoughts out of my mind.
Then we went to school like any normal day, debating about Spiderman and Superman.
As I opened my locker, a note fell out. I had a feeling it was gonna be from creepy dream vampire.
And guess what?
I was right.
The note said:
Date him before someone else does.
It was only the second day! What could happen?
I would soon find out.
The morning passed quickly. In science, Benny tried a magic spell on the teacher, hoping it would give him a small electric shock. Except it made the frog he was holding jump out of his hands and race down the hallway. We laughed for the whole hour while the teacher raced after it.
At lunch, Sarah and Erica flashed out of the cafeteria to go grab a bite. That left Rory, Benny and me. It wasn't the best conversation that I had with them.
- Dudes, so are you going to ask me who I like now? Asked Rory.
- Why would we? I asked absentmindedly.
- Uhh, because we always talk about girls when they aren't around. I thought you'd be happy to talk about your smokin' babesitter! Rory answered, nudging me. I saw Benny flinch when Rory said babesitter.
- Dude! I invented the word babesitter!
- So? You don't own it!
- Yes I do! Ugh never mind, I would flick your forehead right now, but it won't make a difference since you can't feel anything.
Rory smirked, stuck out his tongue at him and Benny rolled his eyes.
- Yeah, so anyways, I don't like the " babesitter " anymore, I said, changing the subject.
- Really? Asked Rory, forgetting his fight with Benny completely, so who do you like?
I hesitated before answering. Benny was looking at me, eyes full of curiosity.
- B- uh, Britney.
- Who's Britney? She sounds hot! Shouted Rory, a huge smile on his face.
- Yeah, who is she? I never heard of her, what is she like? Is she at school? asked Benny, curiosity still in his eyes.
- Geez Benny, calm down, he's gonna tell us who this Britney chick is anyways. It's almost like you're jealous, said Rory, punching Benny in the arm playfully.
Benny blushed and widened his eyes. He chuckled, punched Rory back, and said:
- Why in the world would I be jealous? I don't like Ethan!
- Oh. I thought you knew Britney… and that you were jealous of Ethan knowing her too.
- Right… well I don't know her.
- Okay well, Ethan, tell us about your mystery woman, continued Rory, wiggling his eyebrows.
- S-she has brown curly hair that stops at her shoulders, she has hazel eyes and she loves to wear… special designs on her shirts. She was a cheerleader, but she quit because it wasn't really her thing. And she's my mom's friend's daughter that I just met 2 days ago. She's really pretty and-
- Dude! We get the picture! You must really like her if you can't keep talking about her for two minutes without stopping to take your breath! Cut Benny, slight anger in his voice.
- Okay, sorry Benny, I answered, looking down.
- Dude! She reminds me of someone that I know…
My heart stopped. What if he realized I was talking about Benny? My life would be ruined. He'll never liked me if he knew now…
Wait… Rory isn't that smart!
That theory was proved.
- Betty! Oh, my love! I miss her so much! Sighed Rory, staring at the wall dreamily.
- Yeah, I chuckled, looking at Benny who was laughing too, she looks like Betty a lot.
- Anyways, Rory said, suddenly out of his trance, Benny who do you like?
- Who, me? Benny asked, surprise written on his face.
A deep scarlet blush spread across his cheeks. I felt something spread across my cheeks too. Except it wasn't from embarrassment. It was jealousy. A girl could make him blush like that in under three seconds? Erica.
I gritted my teeth, waiting for Benny's response.
- E-Erica.
- Oh, so nothing new there. But did Della talk to you this morning?
- Uh, the last time she talked to me, I turned her dead dog into a zombie.
- Right I forgot, continued Rory, well anyways, there's a rumor that she wants to ask you on a date.
Benny's eyes widened, before he said, staring at her from across the cafeteria:
- Really?
He did his famous " hey girl I think you're hot " face, and Della noticed him. She giggled.
- So are you going to ask her out? Asked Rory.
That was the last I heard from the discussion. The bell rang, I got my stuff and ran away from them, my heart sinking faster and faster into the ground with each step.
Riiinnnnngggggggggg!
I groaned, and searched for my phone, my eyes still closed. I found it, pressed the green button and said, in my sleepy voice:
- Hello?
- Dude! Why did you ran out of the cafeteria today, and why did you avoid me the whole afternoon?
I recognized the best voice in the world. Benny's.
- Benny sorry, I just… wasn't feeling well. I was taking a nap when you called me, actually.
That wasn't a lie. I was feeling " broken-hearted pain ", at least that's what I called it. And I was taking a nap, tired after eating a whole ice-cream box.
- Oh, Benny said, I thought we could play video games tonight, but I'll let you sleep.
- Thanks.
I yawned, and said:
- Good night, Benny.
I heard a chuckle from the other line.
- G'night, E.
I hung up, stretched and looked at my alarm clock.
9:54.
Oh well, I guess it's time to go to sleep anyways, I thought to myself.
Chapter two done :D I hope you like it! And keep the reviews coming, they push me to upload faster :P
How awesome was Benny in " village of the darned " ?
Anyway,
Peace and Bethan!
