Hey guys, it's Sugarcat again with a new chapter of my Bethan story. For everyone's disappointment, the chapter number ten ended up a little shorter than the other ones. I know I kinda took too long to update it and I realize you all expect the sooner the better, but I had some issues I had to take care and at the same time I had to come up with an update for all of you subscribers and guests.
Well, let's answer the reviews, which I was kinda delighted that even after a long time since the last update, I still received them:

Ch. 10 – Can You Read My Mind?
After a while, Ethan was himself again. The only thing he wished was that Benny didn't put his heart on the shelf, afraid that he might get hurt anymore. He remembered the times there were only the two of them, having fun by themselves like there was no tomorrow. And then he thought of a life without Benny, like if somehow they were separated by the destiny. After that, such cold overtook his body and he stopped thinking about that.
By the time they were all asleep, especially Benny, Ethan moved towards the window and watched Benny sleep. He hated himself for doing that, but he had to wake him up and talk to him. He called Benny's name inside his own mind and echoed in the wizard's ears. It was enough to make Benny open his eyes and sit up. He saw Ethan floating in the air outside Sarah's house and, scared of what was happening, he walked up to the window and opened it slowly to not wake up the other girls.
"E, what you're doin' here? And where did you learn to fly?" Benny whispered looking at the flying teenager in front of him.
"It doesn't matter now. We need to talk. Come with me. I wanna show ya somethin'." Ethan replied holding his hand out for Benny to grab it. And again Benny couldn't say no to the love of his life. With a little hesitation, the young Weir reached out and their hands locked together, before Ethan pulled Benny a little towards himself.
'I'm so scared of what he'll say…' Benny thought and what happened next, took him by surprise. Ethan pulled Benny once again with much more strength this time, and it made their lips lock in a kiss Benny longed so much to receive. It was a quick kiss, but enough to make Benny melt in Ethan's arms.
"Don't be sacred. There's no reason for it." Ethan said after they broke the kiss. Benny stood there, like kid at a school, holding hands with a vampire. It was like Ethan could read his mind. Like he could picture the things Benny was thinking of. But right now Benny was wondering why Ethan was all the wonderful things he was. "Remember when we watched that Superman movie and you cried at one particular scene. Well, I'm gonna make you live it."
Silently Benny wrapped his arms around Ethan's neck while the new vampire held Benny's waist, to avoid him from falling. And then all of a sudden, Ethan took Benny through the clouds above, but at the same time, taking Benny to the highest peak of love. It made the wizard feel that thrill inside once again.
Now they belonged to the sky, and more than that, they belonged to each other. Benny looked down at the things they flew above while Ethan's hands slowly let go of his waist and held one of his hands. Benny understood his friend and lover's intentions and opened his arms being held by one of Ethan's hands. They both had their arms out, smiling at each other while enjoying the landscape below them.
"Dude, don't let me go!" Benny exclaimed scared that he might fall because of a lack of attention.
"Never. I love you too much to ever think about that." Ethan replied and it made Benny's heart melt more than ice on a campfire and his cheeks to heat up. The wizard looked down in embarrassment and in doubt, believing he was still in Sarah's house, sleeping so tight that it leaded him to a dream that could never be real. "It's real. And if it's what you want, I'll make it better everyday of our lives."
Benny now knew Ethan could literally read his mind. And then, Ethan pulled Benny closer to him again in an embrace, while flying above all the buildings of the town. They flew above the school, their houses until Ethan took Benny out of the town. They landed on the foot of a mountain, looking at the dim of the lights of the city. Benny had his back lying against Ethan's front as they both sat down beneath a tree.
"We could build a home by the foot of the mountain, and never come back. This way we would be far from all the strange things we have to face every single day." Ethan commented holding Benny closer to his chest. Now that Ethan found this very special love inside his best friend's heard, and counting that both of them weren't lucky with lovers before, Benny was one person that Ethan could count to love him.
"I won't mind the strange things as long as I'm with you." Benny said and looked backwards to kiss Ethan. The seer quickly understood Benny's intentions and sealed their lips in a sweet kiss. But at the same time, Ethan could notice that the wizard's thoughts were somewhere else. He just prayed Benny wasn't disappointed with him by not being the Ethan he'd been dreaming these days.
"Something wrong, babe? Am I a bad kisser?" Ethan asked after they parted worried of what might be Benny's answer.
"No, you're the best, 's just… I dreamed your arms would always hold me, and that your lips were mine alone to kiss. But after all those things you told me about Sarah, I never thought we might end like this." Benny confessed and it was time for Ethan's heart to melt.
"Don't worry. Now that we are like this, I would never let you go." Ethan told Benny, but when the wizard tried to give Ethan a smile, Benny yawned softly and his eyelid looked heavier. "Let's go, I'm gonna take you back to Sarah's house. You gotta sleep."
"No, dude… I'm wide… *yawn*… awake." Benny said and Ethan was convinced the opposite. He pulled Benny up in his arms and took flight going over the buildings once again. But… Little did they know what was happening beneath them.

"C'mon Scott, you know you don't need to stay after the business hours. Go home, you need a little rest." The Converse store manager said to his employee of the month, but it was like talking to a deaf.
"I need some extra money. I gotta buy somethin' special for someone special." Scott answered putting the last shoe boxes back to its respective place on the shelf of the store stock. "And don't worry, it's over for today."
"Let's go, I have to lock everything up." The young manager said walking to the door with Scott right behind him. By the time everything was locked up, they went separate ways and when Scott was outside, he looked up and saw something that called his attention. He saw Benny being carried by Ethan, while they kissed hovering above the shopping mall.
"Ok Benny, if I can't have you, no one can." Scott said to himself crushing a soda can that was in his hand…
~Bethan~
Soon enough, Ethan and Benny were back at Sarah's house. Ethan put Benny back inside while he stood there floating in front of the love of his life. They kept on changing glances before Ethan moved forward to kiss Benny. The wizard was on the tip of his toes and resting his hands on the window frame to reach for the kiss. When the kissin' time was over, Ethan still had something to tell Benny.
"I don't wanna lose you. I know I didn't realize what I felt for you right then, but now that you're mine… I-I believe I won't last a day without you." Ethan's heart spoke for himself and actually the seer let it go. It was so much better now that each one of his feelings were clear.
"If you need a friend, I'm the one to fly to. And most important, if you need to be loved… Here I am, read my mind…" Benny whispered inviting Ethan for one last farewell kiss.
After Ethan was gone back to his own place, Benny lied down above his mattress, praying that all of what happened wasn't just a dream…
That's all folks.
I know it's horrible but it will get better.
Next chaper: Benny goes missing and Ethan goes crazy looking for him. Will our Ethan be fast enough to save his new love?
