A/N: Hey, everybody! It's MBAV fan66! With an all new chapter!

Ok! So, in the last chapter we heard that The Big Bad Wolf had struck again and now Ethan's terrified that it'll come for him or for someone that he loves. And we also saw how Benny, being the great boyfriend that is, comforted him and promised to keep him safe. So cute! Lol!

Anyways, in this chapter we once again see that Ethan's fear comes up again, but this time he decided to have a safety blanket in case Benny's not around if The Big Bad Wolf does show up. Aaand, now I'm gonna shut up before I give too much away about the chapter and ruin it for you all. Lol!

Story: Little Red Riding Hood Part 6

Chapter 6: Fear And Reassurance

Main Pairing: Benny/Ethan


So, the next day, Rory had to leave early because he had to go help his father at the shop. Which just left Ethan and Benny all by themselves, to have some alone time with each other. Well, as alone as they could get with Grandma there. But it was nice that the two got to have some quality time with each other.

They did help out with some chores for Grandma, but they also would cuddle with each other and just talk about things. Mostly about interests or the latest 'whatever' geeky kind of stuff that they were into, but sometimes they would even get to talking about their past some. Like wonderful memories that they had shared with the parent that they had lost.

Ethan even learned a few things about wolves from Benny. Like how silver doesn't really hurt them, unless maybe if the wolf has an allergic reaction to silver or if it was made into a weapon, but other than that silver was basically like any other metal to them, completely harmless. And wolf's bane doesn't hurt them either, it just irritates their noses is all.

And on the night of a full moon, they don't lose control and go on a wild rampage through the woods in their wolf form like a wild animal. Instead, full moons just gives them an abundance of energy that sometimes needs to be burned off, which they usually do through a nice good run through the forest, mostly in their wolf form, but it isn't really neccessary to be in that form to burn off the extra energy.

Other than that, Ethan learned that wolves are pretty much like any other human being. Except for maybe the heighten senses, being a little bit more faster and stronger than the average person, and turning into a wolf parts, but other than that completely normal.


As the weeks went by, Ethan and Benny's love for each other grew stronger. Ethan's mom still doesn't know about her son and Benny's relationship or even that he even knew the wolf. Ethan had kept meaning to tell her about him, but every time he kept chickening out. Worrying that she would flip out and possibly try to kill him on sight, if he ever showed up near him or the house.

His mom was no stranger when it came to handling a gun. Ever since his father's death, she had taken up shooting lessons so that way her and Ethan wouldn't be left completely defenseless, in case any danger showed up. Mainly the Big Bad Wolf.

So, yeah! Ethan was pretty scared for his boyfriend's life if he ever showed up at their doorstep. Heck! Just having Benny waiting for him nearby his house when he leaves for Grandma's, always made him nervous. He was afraid that she might spot him off in the distance and start shooting at him.

As Ethan bid his mother farewell to start his journey to Grandma's, like always Benny was right there at little ways from the edge of the forest, waiting for him with a smile.

"Hey, there Red!" greeted Benny.

"Hey, to you too, Wolfy!" greeted back Ethan, lightly chuckling.

"So, I take it that she doesn't know about us?" asked Benny, as they started their walk through the woods.

Ethan looked down in disappointment. "No. Not yet." he answered. "I'm sorry, Benny. I've just been too much of a coward to tell her. I'm afraid of what the consequence might be if I did tell her." he said in a sullen apologetic way.

"It's ok, Red! I kind of see your reasoning for not wanting to tell her, really. To be honest, I'm a little afraid of how she'll react too. But we can't keep this up forever, Ethan. We need to tell her at some point, before she finds out some other way." stated Benny sincerely.

"I know." agreed Ethan, meekly.

"But I'm in no hurry to tell her. I'm happy to wait until you're ready to tell her yourself." added Benny, smiling happily to him. Ethan looked up at him and smiled too at his understanding.

Then a delicious odor hit Benny's nose. "Mmm! Are those your mother's cookies that I smell?!" stated Benny with his eyes closed as he sniffed the air pleasantly, getting excited and making his wolf ears appear.

Ethan giggled at him. "Yeah! They are!" he replied happily.

Benny took another long whiff of the air before asking excitedly, "Can I have some?!"

"Nooo! There for Grandma, Benny! You know that, silly!" he chuckled, drawing out the 'no'. "And Benny?"

"Yeah?"

"Your wolf ears are showing." stated Ethan, smiling.

A look of surprise appeared on the young wolf's face, before he then blushed and looked away embarrassingly and replying with a meek 'sorry'. He then changed them back into his regular human ears and flashed a smile towards the boy in red.

"Now then! About those cookies!" beamed Benny happily, as he made a move towards the cookie filled basket in Ethan's hands.

"Benny! I said no!" said Ethan, slightly raising his voice some and trying not to laugh, as he tried to keep the basket out of his boyfriend's reach.

"Awe! Come on, Red! I'm sure she wouldn't even noticed if just one was missing!" he responded back pleadingly/playfully, as he tried to reach into the basket for a cookie.

"No!" shouted Ethan playfully but was trying to sound more sterner, but when he turned to jerk the basket away from Benny he accidently tripped and fell, dropping the basket. Luckily, none of the cookies had fallen out and the two only laughed about the situtation, until something shiny caught Benny's eye in the basket.

As Ethan got up to dust the dirt off himself, Benny walked over and picked the basket up with a curious expression. When he pulled back the little towel that was covering the treats, he saw that a knife was also stowed away in the little basket along with the cookies.

"Ethan? What is this for?" he asked curiously, as he held up the knife from the basket to show Ethan.

Ethan's smiling face then fell into a frown. "It's a precaution." he replied sullenly.

Benny gave him a perplexed and baffled expression. "A precaution? A precaution for what?" he questioned confusedly. "Ethan. I thought that we had already established that you can trust me and that I would never ever dare hurt you or anybody else for that matter?!" stated Benny questioningly and sounding a little bit hurt, too.

"We did!" exclaimed Ethan pleadingly in a reassuring way with wide eyes. He then looked back down with a sadden look. "It's because of you." he answered glumly.

"Then why?"

"It's just, ever since Grandma told me about that attack that happened a few days ago and the wolf killings starting back up again...I've been feeling on edge a bit. I know that you said that you would protect me no matter what, but there's still those times when you aren't always around. Like when I'm at home alone whenever Mom goes out to do an errand or something." explained Ethan sullenly. "Plus, I don't really know why, but I just had this feeling today like maybe something bad would happen today. So, I brought the knife for protection with me just in case something bad does happen and you're not around or is unable to protect me, to defend myself with." he added.

Hearing Ethan's explanation made Benny relax, some and he agreed with the boy in red. That maybe it would be best if he carried around a weapon just in case he's not their to protect him from harm. Benny placed the knife back in the basket and covered it back up, and then approached the boy in red wrapping his arms around him in a hug and giving him a kiss on the forehead, not saying a word.

Ethan knew that he understood and probably agreed with him and then smiled fondly into the embrace, before breaking it and continuing on with their walk. But not before Benny had managed to snag a cookie out the basket and taking off on ahead of him laughing, with Ethan chasing after him smiling and laughing too. As he tried to catch the cookie snatching thief of a wolf, for disobeying him from when he said no cookies.


Later, as they continued their walk through the woods, Benny had suddenly felt a chill run through his spine as he sensed something bad was nearby. Not wanting to scare Ethan, he tried to play it cool, but failed as Ethan could tell that something was wrong with the wolf.

"Benny? What's the matter?" he asked in concern.

"I don't know...I just got this feeling that we're being watched or something." he said not too sure about the strange feeling.

Then they were both suddenly startled by a mysterious voice from somewhere, that sent chills through out Benny's body.

"Well! Well! Well! Look who it is...?!" mocked the menacing voice, in fake glee at the two teenagers standing there with wide eyes and frighten looks upon their faces.


A/N: Duh! Duh! Duuuh! Lol! I guess you all can guess what's gonna happen in the next chapter, huh? Lol! That's right! The Big Bad Wolf finally gets revealed! AAAAHHHH! Lol!

So, Ethan's got a little reassurance with him, just in case Benny happens not to be around if the Big Bad Wolf does show up and Benny seems to agree that maybe it might be a good idea. And wasn't that little cookie scene just the cutest?! EEK! Lol! Benny the cookie thief. Lol!

So, then until next (and drama packed) chapter, I'll be seeing you all! Bye! :)
