Not only is BEN a total sweetheart, but he's a gentleman and a total romantic. He would call Kendra a different pet name almost every day ranging anywhere from Zelda (which she didn't know how to react to), to sweetheart. If Kendra remembered right, she was pretty sure he called her his warrior princess at one point.
Now that Kendra had agreed to be his girlfriend, BEN hardly ever let go of her hand unless it meant cuddling. Honestly Kendra loved the attention. She had never had an actual boyfriend before, and the experience was thrilling. Sure, she had gone on a couple of dates, but they were mostly group ventures with a guy she had no interest in and no heart to turn him down.
Kendra learned a week after they started dating that BEN could actually make his eyes look normal if he wanted to. Because of this, he was the one who went out to buy the necessities everyone living in the house needed. She now knew how clothes that fit her were in her closet and dresser, though she refused to think about the underwear.
When Kendra first saw his normal eyes, she couldn't stop staring. They were so vibrant and filled with blue, she couldn't use any one word to describe them. The best she could do if she tried was beautiful. Of course she didn't feel like the word did them justice. BEN had ended up getting uncomfortable, rambling about things Kendra didn't hear. When he changed them back, she frowned and demanded to his amazing eyes again. He complied, blushing deeply.
Kendra had taken his face in her hands, and kissed him. When she saw his face again, she started giggling uncontrollably at how red it was. He punched her shoulder playfully, making her giggles worse. After that, they would sneak into each others room every night just so she could stare at his eyes while they talked.
As their relationship progressed, Jeff started snapping and glaring at BEN more than what was normal for him. Though when Kendra got involved to stick up for her adorable blond, he went quiet and reluctantly apologized. She thought he was just grumpy, but was proven wrong when they were alone in the living room enjoying the quiet. Slender was somewhere currently unknown, BEN went out shopping, and the freaky clown Kendra avoided at all costs was nowhere to be seen. She didn't know any of the others who stayed in Slender Mansion, but at that moment she didn't care.
When Jeff sat next to her, Kendra gave him a smile. "Hey, what's up?"
"Nothing. Which is beyond bizarre for this house."
"No kidding. I'm enjoying it while I can, who knows when this will happen again?"
"Probably never," they said simultaneously, making Kendra start laughing. She was surprised when she heard Jeff join her, but she didn't comment.
"I love it when that happens," Kendra said, her laughter taming to the occasional giggle.
Before Jeff could say anything, his expression turned sour at something behind her. Kendra turned, and grinned widely when she saw BEN.
"Benny bunny!" she shouted, moving to stand up and hug him.
He laughed and hugged her back. "Hey, sweetheart. I got you something at the store, I can't wait to show you!"
"What is it?!" she asked excitedly, matching his childish tone.
"Not yet! You gotta wait until later!"
"But BEN," she whined, stretching out his name.
"No but's! Gotta wait, honey bee."
"Ugh, this is going to be torture."
"Watching this is torture. I need to gouge my eyes out and shove them in the garbage disposal."
"Oh gross, Jeff! That is not an image I want, damn it!"
"Ha! That's too bad then."
"Asshole."
"I know."
"Hey! What about me? I got you a gift, I deserve your attention!"
