This is for Alley Petifier, who really REALLY wanted me to post the newest chapter, so here you go and hope you like it :) I'll be posting new chapters for BNC & DL eventually.

So, ya'll ready to find out who (and what) Josh is? Sorry if this is a letdown to some of you who expected something big and dramatic.

Also, still don't own anything MBAV except what I have on iTunes, my wild thoughts, and the few dozen pictures, which are all the courtesy of Google and YouTube.

Well, here goes nothing!

…

"Calm down young vampire, I'm here to help them."

"What?"

"I said, I'm here to help them."

"I heard you the first time… But, you called me a vampire? I'm not a –"

"Drop the human act Sarah," Josh interrupted her, making her mouth fall open in shock. "I know you are not what you used to be."

"And how do you know that I'm "supposedly" not human?"

"Because I'm not either."

"Excuse me?"

"Are you hard of hearing?"

"No, it's just everything you say surprises me smart-ass," Sarah said, her anger flaring up.

"Once again, calm down. I'll explain everything if you wish."

"Oh yeah, I wish you would."

"We should go somewhere more private," Josh says, looking around to see students beginning to arrive for the school day. Sarah nods and grabs his arm.

"I know the perfect place," she says, dragging him behind her. Soon, they're in front of the old dark room (yeah, I know I use this location a lot, but I figured it was the perfect private place since (I'm assuming) Whitechapel High doesn't use it anymore. I've only got so much I can work with)."We can talk in here," she says, opening the door and shoving him in first, then closing the door behind her. "Now," she says, turning to face him, "explain everything. Why you're here and why you're so interested in Benny and Ethan."

"Like I said, I'm not here to hurt them, but to help them," Josh said, brushing his hair out of his eyes. "I was called here. By them."

"Care to elaborate?" Josh rolled his eyes but continued on.

"I'm their own personal cupid. Their distressed, hidden love called me to them. I enrolled at Whitechapel High so I could get closer to them and find out what is keeping them apart."

"… Personal cupid? Okay, I know I've seen some pretty weird things, but that's crazy. Prove it," Sarah said, crossing her arms and watching him intently. He sighed but put his backpack down and looked at her. He held out his hands and closed his eyes. Sarah watched curiously, wondering what he was doing, until his hands began to glow, and when the glowing susbsided, a bow and heart-tipped arrow were in his hands. (Totally cliché, I know, but hey, what better way to prove you're cupid right?)

"Is that enough proof for you?" he asked, smirking at her.

"Yeah," she said, watching as his hands glowed again and soon enough, the bow and arrow were gone. "Okay, so why are you here exactly?" He sighs again but looks at her.

"I need to get them together. They belong together. Soul-mates. But something's keeping them from being together, and I need to find out what. But, they can't know who, or I guess what, I am. That's against the rules. Other beings like myself, like you for example, can know, but they absolutely cannot know about me, unless of course one of them guesses or finds out on their own."

"Wow… So does your being here have anything to do with their dreams about each other?"

"Pretty much. I'm basically stuck here until they realize how they feel for the other and act on it. These dreams … they're only going to get more intense as time goes on."

"Intense?"

"Yeah. They'll get so strong, that they'll either stop sleeping completely, get lost in a dream and stay asleep for an extended period of time, or more commonly, begin daydreaming their dreams, while they're awake," he said, stressing the last part.

"Oh," Sarah said in understanding. "That would not be good."

"No it wouldn't," he said, frowning. But then he smiled. "You! You can help me!"

"Help you? How?"

"Watch them; see if you can help me find out what's keeping them from being together."

"I don't think I'd be much help," Sarah said, shrugging. "Sorry."

"No, you're perfect," Josh said, standing up straight and holding out his hands again. Sarah watched as they glowed for a couple of seconds, then the glowing ended, showing a heart-shaped necklace in his hands. "Wear this. It'll help you see their love auras."

"Auras?"

"The light surrounding their bodies. Only I can see it, but with this necklace, you'll be able to see it too. It's very faint right now, barely noticeable, but you can still see. The more they realize how they feel for each other, the more their aura glows. This particular necklace only shows theirs, so it won't work on anyone else."

"Okay…" Sarah said hesitantly, taking the necklace and looking at it then looking at him. "So I just wear this and what? Report back to you if they glow brighter?"

"Yes! You're closer to them than I am. Please Sarah, help me. For them," he begged, eyes wide and desperate. Sarah sighed but slipped the necklace on anyway.

"I guess I can keep an eye on them. How do I know if they grow apart or something?"

"The aura will dim the farther apart they drift, romantically speaking. The closer they get to realizing their feelings, the brighter it gets. Let's say they kiss, they're auras would practically explode in excitement."

"Wow… Well, class is going to start soon," Sarah said, grabbing her bag and heading towards the door. "I'll let you know at lunch what I find out."

"Thank you," he said, smiling gratefully. "Oh and Sarah?"

"Yeah?" she asked, turning back to him curiously.

"Please tell Ethan I have no interest in Benny."

"I will," she said, shooting him a smile and disappearing quickly out the door.

…

Sarah POV:

I walked towards Ethan's locker, where I figured him and Benny would be. As I round the corner I see them sitting on the floor in front of the lockers, sharing headphones. Benny's head is on Ethan's shoulder, eyes drifting shut. I frown sympathetically until I see them begin to glow. Wow this thing really works I think, looking at the necklace around my neck. They're both surrounded by a dull amber colored light, barely visible, but blended together since they're sitting so close. Looking back at them, I see Ethan also has his eyes closed. I hope Josh gets them together soon, otherwise these dreams really will be the end of them. Plastering on a fake smile, I walk up to them and sit next to Ethan.

"Hey Ethan," I say quietly, not wanting to scare him too badly. His eyes snap open and he looks at me in surprise.

"Oh. Hey Sarah," he said, shifting a bit, Benny's head still on his shoulder. I smile at him, watching the light glow a bit brighter around Benny as he smiled in his sleep.

"Shouldn't you wake him up? By that look on his face, his dream might be getting … interesting," I say to Ethan, who looked at Benny tiredly.

"I guess you're right," he says, and I watch his own aura glow as he shakes Benny's shoulders. How can they not see they're crazy about each other? I wondered, watching Benny lazily open his eyes and smile tiredly at Ethan.

"Hi," he said quietly, smiling such a small and sweet smile that I can't help but giggle at their oblivious-ness. Benny's aura fades a bit as he moves away from Ethan, as does Ethan's as he moves away from Benny. I frown for a second before plastering on my fake smile.

"Well you guys, I talked to Josh," I say, standing up then helping Ethan up, who in turn helps Benny up. Every time they touch, I can see their auras light up a little bit more before dying down again.

"And what did he say?" Ethan asked, and I was surprised to see his aura flair up suddenly, almost blindingly bright.

"Why? Jealous still?" I ask, testing him. His aura brightens even more as he glares at me more.

"No," he says, obviously lying. "I just wanted to know if he's dangerous."

"Well he's not," I say, watching him step a bit from Benny, the light around him dimming back to its almost vanished look. "He's actually pretty cool. And he's not interested in Benny that way," I say smugly to Ethan, who smiled briefly before sulking again.

"Well… Okay. I guess I'll be nice to him then," Ethan said, yawning as Benny slung an arm over his shoulders.

"Come on dude, let's get to class," he says to Ethan, who nodded tiredly. Seems like that nap woke him up some, I think, watching them walk away, their aura's shining just the tiniest bit brighter.

…

At lunch, Josh met me by the snack machines, where I explained everything that happened this morning. He was ecstatic by the time I was finished talking.

"This is great! It sounds like they're both slowly beginning to realize it," he said, smiling happily at me. I can't help but smile back at him.

"What happens to you after you get them together?" I ask, hoping I didn't offend him by asking this. He smiled wistfully at me before speaking.

"I'll probably be reassigned to someone else. Only two things could keep me here," he says quietly, looking through the snack machine's options.

"And what would those two things be?"

"I find someone else who needed my help, or they need to be watched over still."

"Is there anyone else who needs your help?" I ask, watching him. He looks at me sadly, and is about to answer when Ethan walks up to us.

"Hey Sarah. Hi Josh," he says, attempting to be nice. I see Josh shrug at me then turn to Ethan. Guess we'll finish our conversation some other time. I smile at Ethan, but quickly leave him and Josh alone. Glancing at Benny, I smile as I see him watching Ethan, his light glowing a little brighter.

…

Ethan POV:

I had saw Sarah talking to Josh, and decided I would go and try to be nice to him, since Sarah said he was okay. I glance at Benny to see him staring tiredly at my math homework, which he was sleepily copying onto his own sheet.

"I'm gonna go say hi to Sarah," I say, getting up quickly. I hear a mumbled "k" before I walk off too far. It looks like I interrupted Sarah and Josh's conversation, but Josh doesn't seem to really care, since he turns to me, smiling that happy smile of his. I watch Sarah quickly walk away, leaving us alone.

"Hi Ethan!" he says, drinking from his water bottle.

"Hey Josh… I wanted to apologize if I wasn't too nice to you yesterday. I haven't been sleeping well, so I've been kinda irritable," I say. It's not a complete lie.

"It's fine, I understand," he said, still smiling happily. I smile back and turn to leave when I stumble slightly. He reaches out and grasps my arm, making me gasp and sending me into a vision.

Josh standing there, smiling happily.

A bow and heart-tipped arrow in his hands.

Him pointing it at someone and shooting it into their chests, hearts surrounding them.

As I come out of my vision I hear Josh asking me if I'm okay. I look at him in shock before nodding.

"Y-yeah. I'm okay," I say, trying to figure out what I just saw, and what it meant. Who are you Josh? I think, watching the still smiling boy let go of me.

Who are you?

…

Dun-dun-duuuuuun. Hope this chapter wasn't complete crap. I actually kinda liked it. I hope everyone else did too!

Can't wait to see your thoughts/reviews on it :)

Peace and Love to you all!
