A/N: Yo! Yo! What's happenin' my fellow songficers?! It's me, the one and only DJ, MBAV fan66! Bringing you all another hot beat! :D

This one is coming to you all from my homie, Bennyweirlover17! Who requested the song and pairing! In fact...I believe this is the first time I've ever did a Benrah pairing, EVER! In any of my stories! :o Lol! Anyways, I just hope I did all you Benrah fans out there proud with this one. ;D

By the way, there will also be mentions of Ethan in this, as well. Like probably several times, but it's still more of a Benny/Sarah one, though, regardless. You'll see. ;)

Anyways, enough with the jibber-jabbering and let's get to it! Shall we?! :D

Shout outs to:

TiredAssMuggle- Thanks for adding this story to your favorites and following lists! I much appreciate it! :D And for adding me to the ones for authors, as well, as for adding some of my other stories (The Origin Of Ethan Morgan and MBAV Book Of Fairytales) to those lists, too! :D

Stretch Snodgrass- Yeah. For some, it's just so hard to accept when it wasn't meant to be, relationship-wise. Especially, if you loved them more than they apparently did you. And if the other person was your first love/crush, too. I have a feeling that if Sarah did ever start to lose interest in Ethan (if they were dating, that is), then that's how Ethan probably would've taken. Like, he just couldn't go on without her, even though she no longer loves him in the same way, though (but still wants to be friends). He'd take it pretty hard, but I like to think that he'd be able to bounce back in time, though! After all! There's plenty of fish in the sea! :D Lol!

TiredOfBeingNice- Yeah. Heh-heh. Sorry, about that. *rubs back of neck awkwardly* I didn't mean for it to hit so close to home for yah. But thankfully, like Ethan did, you managed to move on to someone even better, now! :) Yeah, I totally took the girls out of character, there. Almost, like a total personality swap, even! Lol! But I agree! How can you NOT love the adorkableness that is Ethan Morgan?! *hugs self tightly, smiling happily just thinking about him* Oh! Uh...sorry about that. *blush with a weak smile* Anyhoo! Lol! You're very much welcome, friend! :) And I'm happy that you really liked it, too!

Bennyweirlover17- Thanks! I'm glad you liked it! :) And I hope you'll like this one, too! ;D

jessgood- Ok. Thanks for letting me know. Sorry that your jessicak71307 account got messed up somehow and you had to switch accounts. But at least you're still with us, though! Lol! :D And guess what?! Your request is up next! Number 43! :D I bet you're excited about that, huh?! *giggles* ;P

Songfic #42

Song: Stay

Artist: Rihanna

Pairing: Benny/Sarah


After the Lucifractor explosion (about a couple of months ago) things were never the same again for two teenagers who had lost a dear friend on that dreadful day. You see, on that day, Ethan Morgan had lost his life trying to save his best friend and the girl that he loved from their evil and psychotic vice principal. When they weren't looking, he had went back in to face Stern alone, which ultimately led to his death, as Ethan was able to distract the man long enough for the dark power that was following into him to become unstable and thus wind up frying his brain due to lack of proper concentration. When this had happened, it was already too late for Ethan to escape as the building was already caving in on itself. Ethan knew what his fate would be, but in the end he had no regrets of what he had done. He would gladly do it all over again, if it meant his two dearest and closets friends were able to survive the blast and live to see another day.

Since that tragic day, Sarah and Benny were never the same. Both had blamed the terrible loss on themselves and had wished that things would've been different on that night. Sarah was probably the most hardest on herself, out of the two. She couldn't believe that he was gone. And right when they were finally starting to get close, too. She never did get the chance to admit her feelings for the dorky young seer, to him directly. Oh, how cruel fate can be sometimes.

That's when Sarah had fell into a dark depression, that nobody would understand. Erica tried her best to comfort her best friend, but not even she could lift Sarah's spirits any. There was only one other who understood what she was going through and that was Ethan's best friend, Benny. He too, felt lost and empty inside without his best friend there, by his side. Ethan was like a brother to the young spellmaster. And so both Sarah and Benny decided to grieve and comfort each other, over the next coming weeks, in order to maybe someday completely heal from their emotional wound of lossing someone so close and special to them.

But in doing so, something unexpected and unimaginable happened, that neither one of them ever saw coming.

They began to...fall for one another.

All along it was a fever

A cold sweat, hot headed believer

I threw my hands in the air I said show me something

He said, if you dare come a little closer

At first, it had started off with them hanging out every now and then, just to talk. Mostly about their feelings and Ethan. Or to even maybe stop the other from doing someting stupid and reckless. This lasted for about a month, now. But then over time, they began to make each other smile and laugh more, as their friendly little meetings started to become more and more frequent. Neither one of them had caught it at first, but eventually they did. They had become a lot more closer than they had realized, while grieving together over these past few weeks.

Round and around and around and around we go

Oh now tell me, now tell me, now tell me now you know

At first, Sarah wasn't really sure what she was feeling, except for maybe a little bit of happiness, again finally. She thought maybe just having someone around who also knows the pain and hurt she's going through, was it. But then she eventually started to notice certain little things about the spellmaster. Like, how his smile lights up the room. How his laugh makes her want to laugh, as well. The way his eyes sparkle in the light when he looks at her just right. How there's always this...warm and tingly sensation on his skin whenever they accidently touch one another. All these things about Benny just seemed to...make her heart a flutter, everytime she's around him! That's when she realized it. That she was falling for him.

She had no idea how to feel about the fact that she had feelings for Benny Weir. Her dead crush's best friend.

Not really sure how to feel about it

Something in the way you move

Makes me feel like I can't live without you

It takes me all the way

I want you to stay

Sarah didn't want to feel like this, but she couldn't help it. She wanted to be with Benny, but at the same time...something told her that she couldn't. That it would be a betrayal to Ethan's memory if she ever started to date his best friend and act on the feelings she now has for him. And she could never do that to Ethan. He was still too important to her to ever do such a thing to him. Even if he is dead!

So, she decided to stop seeing Benny so much and to push down all those feelings she had for him, as well. Even if she did really enjoy spending time with him and it helped ease the guilt and pain she felt inside over Ethan's death, just a little each time she saw the spellmaster's handsome face.

It's not much of a life you're living

It's not just something you take, it's given

Round and around, and around, and around we go

Oh now tell me, now tell me, now tell me, now you know

But it was hard for her, though. Not seeing Benny anymore, only made her even more depressed, now. She hated herself for doing this to him! She felt like a terrible friend, by avoiding him, like is! And to make matters worse, her mind also wandered to how Ethan's probably looking down on her, thinking how disappointed he is at her for ignoring and probaby hurting her friend, like this.

Sarah wasn't sure whether or not Benny felt the same way about her, but she knew that she didn't want to find out, either way, though. If she did, then...well...she didn't really know what she'd do, really. But in her mind, it was best not to know, for now. If Benny really did share the same feelings as she did, then hopefully in time he'd just get over them and move on with someone else, then. But...still, though. Sarah couldn't deny the heartache she felt inside at the thought of him possibly being with another girl, other than her.

Not really sure how to feel about it

Something in the way you move

Makes me feel like I can't live without you

It takes me all the way

I want you to stay

One day, while at home alone, there was a knock at Sarah's front door. It was Benny. She was surprised to see him at her place, but what surprised her more was the serious look he had on his face. Very rarely has she ever seen the wild and charismatic teen look so dead serious before. It kind a worried her, to be honest.

She let the spellmaster in, who entered her house as if he had something really important to say to her. That's when he came on out and just said it. How he was sick and tired of her just ignoring his phone calls and texts to her and how hurt he felt when she just suddenly decided to cut off all contact with him! Even going as far as avoiding him in the hallways! He told her that friends don't do that to friends, especially ones who were so badly hurt by their best friend's recent death and relied on one another for support!

Of course, Sarah was taken aback by his outburst of fury towards her, but what really shocked her the most was when Benny then went into detail about how he has fallen for her and is in love with her, too. Hearing him say that, had brought tears to her eyes.

Seeing Sarah crying like that, caused Benny to feel bad all of a sudden. He didn't mean to make her cry. But Sarah quickly reassured him that it wasn't him that made her cry, but herself, instead. This confused the spellmaster, greatly. That's when Sarah told him that they needed to talk.

Oh the reason I hold on

Oh 'cause I need this hole gone

Funny you're the broken one but I'm the only one who needed saving

'Cause when you never see the light, it's hard to know which one of us is caving

She told him how sorry she was for having been ignoring him, lately. She told him the truth about how she really felt about him and that she actually loves him, too. Then Sarah went on to explain her reason for why she's been shunning him all this time. It was because she was afraid. Afraid that somehow by being with him, it would be like betraying Ethan's memory.

Hearing this from Sarah kind a shocked Benny a little bit, but he could see where she was coming from. That's when he told her that he too, had mixed feelings on the subject of being with her as a couple, as well. How it felt as if he would being betraying his late best friend's memory, somehow, if they did. But then he went on to tell her how eventually he came to realize that Ethan wouldn't also want them to suffer like this. To deny their feelings for one another and to turn away any chance of pure happiness that they had again, all because of him. Benny told Sarah that Ethan would've wanted them to be happy. Even if it means being with each other. Because that was just the kind of guy he was. Someone who always put others happiness above his own.

Sarah then realized what Benny just said to her, was right. Ethan wouldn't of wanted this! Not if it meant they both had to sacrifice their own happiness just because they thought it would make him happy in the end. Ethan loved both of them and had always wanted what's best for them. And if dating his best friend is what's best for her, then maybe...maybe she could actually be able to accept that and start to live again. Figuratively, of course, that is. But maybe all that guilt and anguish she's been feeling inside now for all these months from having to live in this world without Ethan, would finally begin to go away. Like, sunlight finally breaking through a dark and cloudy sky after several days of nothing but storms.

Not really sure how to feel about it

Something in the way you move

Makes me feel like I can't live without you

It takes me all the way

I want you to stay, stay

I want you to stay, oh

This made Sarah smile. She was finally ready to do this! She knew that there was no point in drawing out her feelings for Benny, any longer, now! She was ready to be his girlfriend! Besides, if it was one thing she learned from Ethan's death, is that, you can't afford to waste time in telling the person you love how you feel about them. Because your time with them might be more shorter than you think it is and you might miss out on the opportunity to be with them, to see where things would have went. All because you decided to wait too long to tell them that you love them. Like, what happened with her and Ethan. Now, her chance with him will never come, but at least now she knows. And this time...she was going to go for it and be with the man she loves, now!

Feeling so overjoyed with love and happiness, Sarah spontaneously lurched forward to plant her lips on Benny's for a deep and passionate kiss. Which took Benny by surprise at first, but eventually he quickly got over it and started to kiss back, happily.

Once the kiss was over with, both were panting slightly, as they stared deeply into one another's eyes with love and adoration for the other, with both of them smiling. Being the gentleman that he is, that's when Benny decided that it was time to go before her parents came home. But he was soon stopped as he was about to get up from the couch and leave, by Sarah reaching out and grabbing his hand before he could even stand up. That's when he heard her tell him how they still had plenty of time before her parents would return and how she really wanted him to stay. If anything, for the company at least. To which, Benny happily agreed to, right before leaning over to kiss her again.


A/N: And that wraps up another amazing songfic tune, my peeps! ;D

So, what'cha think? Was it rad or just a plain drag?! ;) A bit sad at the beginning, but it eventually turned around into something positive, though! And just to let you know, ghost Ethan's is perfectly a-okay with his two favorite people hooking up with each other! I mean, it's not like he can date her, now?! *shrugs* Cause he's dead! Lol! But I'm sure he'd be happy with it if it meant their happiness! :D Especially, considering they're still grieving over him!

Sorry, if it sort a centered around Sarah more, but hey! Benny still gotta bit of the limelight in, though! Am I right?! Lol!

Alright, my peeps! That's it from me DJ, MBAV fan66, for now! ;D I'll catch yah all around on the flip side! Peace! ;D
