This is the last chapter that I'm remaking before I start writing new ones. I'm so excited.

Benny's Point of View:

I ran out of Maggie's house before she saw me break and ended up running into someone who knocked me onto my butt. I looked up and saw that I'd hit Erica and she was smirking down at me, her hand sticking out. When she pulled me to my feet I realized how much I'd grown over the last year. She was looking up at me instead of down like I was used to.

She must have been thinking the same thing because she smirked, "You've really grown up over the summer, Benny. You're actually pretty hot now."

Before I could say anything in response, she pulled me to her for a kiss. I ignored the little voice in the back of my head and wrapped my arms around her waist, hoping to get rid of all the thoughts of Maggie that were clouding my mind. But instead of seeing Erica in my head she turned into Maggie, making me get more into it. Her nails threaded into my hair as she scratched at my scalp. Someone bumped hard into us and caused us to break apart.

I heard Erica let out a little yelp and knew that Maggie must have burnt her. "Watch where you're going bitch, your powers aren't going to save your ass.

"Why don't you fucking bite me?" Maggie spat at her before slamming Ethan's door behind her.

"Was that a direct invitation?" She asked. Then she ran towards the house, "Who am I to turn her down with an invitation like that? I can't wait to sink my fangs into that bitch's neck."

I ran as fast as I could and pushed her out of the way so I could make it into the house before her. I shut the door and locked it behind me before shouting, "Lock all of the windows and doors, Erica's on the warpath and Maggie's the target."

I looked around and saw that I was talking to an empty room. I could hear Maggie in the kitchen talking to Rory and I assumed that Sarah and Ethan were up in his room. I ran into the kitchen because it was closer and saw Erica walk in through the back door. She jumped onto the counter and bit into an apple, snapping her fangs together.

"Did you seriously think that I was going after your little girlfriend?" she teased, rolling her eyes. "She burnt my ass so that tells me she's way too bitter. Plus she's got Earth Priestess blood running through her; it'd make me explode from all the goodness."

"I said it earlier and I'm going to say it again, bite me bitch," Maggie snapped, zapping Erica again in the ass and making her jump.

Sarah came into the kitchen with Ethan staring hopelessly after her. She seemed oblivious to the awkward tension when she asked, "Why don't we all go play truth or dare in the living room? It'll be really fun."

I heard Maggie sigh before grabbing Rory's wrist and dragging him into the living room. The entire time we were in the kitchen she didn't even glance over at me, acting like I didn't exist. Either I'd really hurt her or she was really pissed that I found out about the bet.

We all ended up sitting on the floor in a giant circle. Maggie was on my left and Erica was on my right, this was going to be an interesting turn of events. I really hope things stay civil between them because I'm right within clawing distance.

I saw Maggie staring straight ahead again, trying her best to not look at me. I really hope I was wrong about this bet thing, I don't think I can handle having her act like this towards me forever.

"Mags, you go first," Sarah smiled. "Truth or dare, dollface?"

Maggie's lips turned up into a smile and she said, "Dare me, babe. Do your worst, I can take it."

Sarah's face was the perfect picture of smug when she looked over at Rory. "Maggie, I dare you to kiss Rory. And when I say kiss I don't mean a little peck, I mean an actual kiss."

Maggie crawled over to Rory and placed a hand on the back of his neck, pulling him closer to her. I tried to watch but I couldn't handle all of the anger that was building up so I focused on a spot on the wall behind them. When they pulled away from each other I had to put my hands underneath me to keep from knocking the stupid grin off of Rory's face.

"It's my turn now, Sarah, and revenge is sweet so truth or dare?" Maggie asked. When Sarah said truth I saw Maggie relax, the tension leaving her shoulders. "What was our bet about earlier? Tell the complete truth about it."

I saw Sarah's eyes grow to the size of baseballs before she read Maggie's face. Then she slouched and said, "Our bet was that whichever one of us kissed the boy we liked or told them about our feelings first won. The loser had to buy the winner mani-pedis."

Maggie's eyes were boring holes into me as the game continued on without my attention. I'd been a total dick to her when she was telling me the truth the entire time. I really needed to go talk to her and set everything straight.

I turned to face her and whispered, "Can we go outside for a minute? I need to talk to you about everything and set some things right."

She grabbed my hand and excused us out onto Ethan's back porch. It was dark out now and the temperature had dropped unnaturally low on a summer night making Maggie cross her arms over her chest to try and keep warm. Before I thought about it I wrapped my arms tightly around her and held her close to my chest.

"I told you that I wasn't a liar," she whispered quietly against my chest.

The feeling of being the biggest dick in the entire world engulfed me again. I walked over to the porch swing and pulled Maggie down onto my lap. She was shaking now so I held her tighter to me in hopes of pushing the chill away.

"I know that you're not a liar, I just overreacted this afternoon. You're really important to me, Maggie. I want to be with you so much but you're such a hard person to figure out," I said, the swing slowly moving as the wind picked up.

She turned around and straddled my hips, taking my face in her hands. "I really want to be with you too, but you've got to believe me when I say I'm telling the truth. Tell me one time that I've lied to you since we've been friends."

I didn't know it was possible to feel any worse than I already did but she proved me wrong. "You've never lied to me before and I was stupid to think so."

"This is going to be harder than we thought, isn't it?" Maggie murmured, laying her head against my chest. "Us being together, I mean. Are we going to be able to work it out?"

"The way I see it we don't' have a choice. Now that I know you love me back I don't think I'm going to be able to let you go," I said, laying my chin on top of her head.

She giggled and I felt my heart flutter slightly before she said, "I hope you don't let me go. I want to stay like this with you forever."

We sat in silence for a while, basking in the glory of our newfound relationship. I regretfully broke it, "Do you realize how cliché we are? Best friends falling in love with each other."

She nodded against my chest and I felt her breathing slow down as she fell asleep. I sat there looking up at the moon while I thought about how much we'd already been through. This was just the beginning, a milestone we'd look back on one day and laugh.

"I guess Maggie ended up winning the bet didn't she?" Ethan asked when he walked outside later that night and saw Maggie sleeping on my chest. Then he scratched the back of his head and awkwardly asked, "Who do you think Sarah's crush was?"

I realized this is how I must have looked to Maggie for all these years; hopelessly in love with her and completely clueless about it.

"Man, you're an idiot! She's in love with you," I whispered, trying to not wake up Maggie.

He sat on the porch steps in front of the swing and put his head in his hands. "I don't know what to do. She can do so much better than me. I don't understand why she'd ever want me out of all of the guys that adore her in school."

Before I could say anything to comfort him the back door opened again and Sarah walked out. "Rory and Erica let so it's just us again. You guys can come back inside; you're safe, unless you just want to stay out here where it's cold and dark."

I gave Ethan a pointed look before picking up Maggie and walking back inside. She sighed before wrapping her legs around my waist and nuzzling her face into my neck. I couldn't believe that she was finally mine.

"Does this mean that I won or did Sarah already kiss Ethan?" Maggie murmured sleepily from my arms, her lips brushing my neck every time she spoke.

I lay down on the couch with her against my chest before answering her, "Not if you hurry up and kiss me first. You never know if they're kissing outside or not."

She looked up at me with a sleepy little smile on her lips. I placed my hands on her cheeks and guided her lops up to mine, pausing before they connected. She took her precious time before connecting our lips gently together.

It wasn't a passionate kiss, it was slow and sweet but I don't think it could've been more perfect if we tried. We ended up sleeping together on the couch that night with our arms wrapped tightly around each other.

Review and tell me what you think should happen in the story now. I need all the ideas I can get.
