So so so so so SORRY everybody!

That's all I can say.

Let's carry on...


Ethan was sad. Yes, they had opened up to Erica. Which means they can be romantic around her, but everyone else? Around his family and Benny's grandma they were project buddies and friends. Around school they had to act civil. And around their groups they had to act like they hated each other. Ethan hated this. He knew that much. But unless the werewolves and vampires suddenly called off the battle and started having picnics with each other there was no way they could be together. He knows he's being negative but to him the chances of them actually being allowed together are 0 to infinity.

So sitting in his desk and dropping his backpack next to him, Ethan laid his head on his folded arms. He looked up when he saw Erica take the seat next to him. She had a smug look on her face.

"I still can't believe you're dating a-"

"Shhh! Do you want us to get caught?" Ethan looked around frantically to see if any vamps or wolves were over hearing.

"Sorry. It's just... seriously?"

"I thought you said you were okay with it!"

"I said that, yes. But you know as soon as something bad happens he's going to turn on you."

"Be-he wouldn't do that!" Ethan mentally cursed himself for almost letting Benny's name slip.

"How do you know? You told me yourself: they can't control themselves."

"And neither can we. So can we please finish this conversation later?"

"Fine." Erica huffed before starting to rummage around in her purse.

Ethan sighed and turned his head toward the front of the classroom. He fought the urge to get up and hug Benny once he saw him enter. So instead he settled with a small smile to which he was returned. Almost immediately his boyfriend was swarmed by a group of students. All in which Ethan knew were werewolves. He watched as Benny glared at them all then sat in a seat a few desks away from him. 'Risky move Benny,' Ethan thought. Suddenly one of the female wolves, a girl he recognized from his 3rd period math class, turned around and stared at him fiercely. She whispered something too quiet for Ethan to hear and the whole pack turned and scowled at him.

Once the teacher and all the stragglers came in everybody took their seats. He could sense Benny's pack still staring at him from all angles but kept his eyes focused on his history teacher.


"Sorry about that." Benny apologized, plopping down on the couch beside him.

"Sorry about what?" Ethan asked, clearly confused.

"For what happened in history."

"No. No. It was my fault. I shouldn't have been stupid enough to let myself get caught like that."

School was finished and Benny was over for another 'project session' while Ethan's family was out.

"You looked pretty upset when I came in. What happened?" Benny asked.

"It was nothing really."

"C'mon tell me."

"Erica said that as soon as something big happens you'll turn on me," he confessed.

"Ethan listen to me," Benny said taking a hold of Ethan's hands. "Nothing. Nothing will make me ever turn on you. I love you."

This caused his boyfriend to blush.

"I love you too."

"Why would Erica say that?"

"I don't know. She's just protective I guess."

"Well she doesn't have to be. I'm going to protect you now."

"And she thinks you won't be able to control yourself. She thinks you'll hurt me."

Benny stared at him in disbelief. Then suddenly at high speed he grabbed Ethan's phone off the coffee table.

"Benny! What are you doing?"

"Calling Erica and inviting her over," he responded, clicking her number.

"Why?"

Benny opened his mouth but Erica had already picked up.

"Hello? Ethan?" Her voice sounded in Benny's ear.

"Hi Erica. It's Benny. I'm at Ethan's house and we need to talk to you."

"Um, okay? I'll be over soon."

And with that she hung up the call.

"Benny why did you say that? The 'We'? I didn't want her over." Ethan protested.

"Well I do. I need to talk to her."

"You're not seriously making a big deal out of this are you? It's just Erica being Erica. I'm sure she didn't mean it. Now just give me my phone so I can tell her she doesn't have to come over anymore!"

Benny's head jerked towards the front of the house.

Smiling wickedly he ran to the door.

"Too late."


Sorry for the really late update everyone! I think this is short and probably not my best work but I hope you still enjoy! There was a lot of dialogue! I sort of left a cliffhanger ending for if y'all don't mind I'm going to watch TV now because I'm sick.

Byezzzz!
