Vanessa pov

Dream...

I was strolling in a field of flowers. The sun was warm to my face and I was twirling in place feeling all so happy and relaxed with the world. I saw a bright rainbow appear before my eyes sparkling and shinning and lighting the world with so many beautiful colors. I closed my eyes and let the sounds of nature fill my ears and bring but happy thoughts in my mind.

I felt someone tap on my shoulders I turned around and smiled looking into the face of my charming man. "Well hello stranger" I giggled.

"My you look more beautiful every time I see you" He said kissing my lips. I felt him grab my hands and then he started twirling me around like there was no tomorrow, we spun and spun till we fell in the soft flower patch all out of breath and giggling. I turned over to my side to face him and he tilted his head to me as the sun caught his face and made it shine.

"Benzin I just want to tell you that..." He put his finger to my lips

"Don't say anything, just kiss me" He whispered to me.

I smiled and lowered my eyes to him as we leaned closer and closer to one another I closed my eyes feeling his breath blow to my face, I felt my lips just mere centimeters from his, this was it he and I were about to lock lips and kiss and...

*Banging* VANESSA!" I was shocked awake when I heard a terrible pounding and banging at my door. I hopped up and it ended my beautiful dream.

"Oh why did it have to end so soon!" I cried seeing as my fantasy dream came to an end. I heard more pounding on the door and I got mad.

"WHAT DO YOU WANT ALREADY!" I screamed in anger.

My door flew open and my evil, demon sister walked in showing her usual scowl. "Vanessa!" She snapped at me.

I rolled my eyes "What do you want? can't you at least wait till I'm up to torture me!" I snap at her.

"Mum sent me up here to wake you up!" She snapped at me.

I glared hard at her "Just get out of my room!" I demand she slams the door and I shake my head "Of all the sisters in the world..." I sighed.

I got up from bed and opened my window letting in the sun and the fresh air of a brand new day. "Good morning world!" I smiled. I had a feeling today would be a good day. I looked over at my calendar and gasped at the date, It's valentine's day at last, this surely was going to be a great day. I slipped on my robe and walked to the bathroom, of course my siblings had a line started so I had to wait till it was my turn. I got myself nice and clean, I walked back to my room and looked for something to wear on this special day of love.

I found my low cut fitted neck wrap red valentines dress with the pink red and white hearts. I put on my white headband with the red heart on top and my pink bracelet and finally my plain black boots. I put glossy red lipstick on my lips and pink blush on my cheeks, my hair I fashioned into a ponytail that went over my left shoulder with twists and a bit of hair glitter to make it sparkle and to finish the look a few spritz of perfume to give me a pleasant scent.

I checked myself In the mirror and smiled. "Looking good Vanessa!" I said giggling to myself. I merrily skipped out of my room and outside of the greenhouse, my family was in the garden just standing around. I walked over to them with a smile.

"Good morning!" I said waving, the second they all caught sight of me they just looked.

"Wow sis you look Hot, like really Hot!" Jr. said smiling.

"Thank you"

"I don't know it's a little too revealing" Dad frowns.

Mum nudged him "Oh Gnomeo she looks great! Why so flashy today?" She asked.

"I just wanted to dress up for the day" I explain.

"Oh yes I'm sure whoever you're trying to impress is going to be very pleased too" Violet smirked.

I glare at her "I'm not trying to impress anyone!" I state "I just felt like dressing up"

We heard someone knock at the gate and then it opened up a bit and someone walked in. I gasped when I saw Benzin strolling in here with a smirk on his face, I blushed red and fixed myself up a bit more as he walked over to us.

"Hey Hey good morning to the whole Bluebury family!" He said smiling.

"Thank you Benzin!" Mum smiled. "What brings you here?"

"Just came to wish you all a happy Valentines day!" He grinned.

"Same to you Benzin" Mum smiled.

"I also came to see one Vanessa bluebury, where is she?" He asked.

I sucked in the nervous pain in my stomach and walked into his view "Hey Benzin?" I said doing a small pose.

Benzin went blank when he saw me all dressed up. "Wow! HOT! HOT! HOT! You look gorgeous!" He announced. I giggled and twirled my hair curl a bit.

"Thank you, that's sweet of you to say" I said and flashed my eyes at him "What are you doing here?"

He walked up to me and said "What a boy can't visit his girlfriend on the most romantic day of the year!" He smirked and flashed a large bouquet or roses in my face along with a box of heart shaped candies and even a small little teddy bear with a heart message. "All for you baby" He whispered to me.

I gasped and took them from him the roses smelled so sweet and the bear and the chocolates were just so good "You are too good to me!" I said almost crying.

He placed a hand to my hips "You're my girl, I have to be good to you" He winked, I smiled and brushed against him. "I also promised that today would be all about you and me, alone" He whispered in a flirting voice.

"That sounds pleasant" I whisper back to him.

"Is there any place you want to go? cause I can make it happen, today is all about you" He said leaning up against me so our cheeks touched.

I held the roses over my mouth so he couldn't see the huge smile I was showing "What about you, where do you want to go?" I asked him

"I just want to be alone with you someplace quiet" Benzin got closer to me and started moving his eyebrows up and down making me smirk at him.

I held his chin down to me and smirked with happy smile "Well maybe we could go up to my room for a while and-"

"And what?" I shudder when I heard that voice, I see dad looking over me, I got nervous.

"Daddy, h-how long have you been standing there?"

"Long enough" He said with his arms crossed. My dad was not exactly happy to know I was dating, mostly because he didn't trust boys.

I looked over to Benzin who was trying to avoid eye contact with my dad. "Well I was just going up to my room with Benzin to talk in private for a while" I say.

"Vanessa you know the rule; No boys in your room, alone" He said sternly.

"Uh sir, I'll be with her you can trust me" Benzin said grinning. Dad however was not letting that go.

"Still Vanessa I don't feel comfortable having you alone with boys"

I rolled my eyes "Daddy I'm 15, stop treating me like a baby"

"You'll always be my baby girl!" He said hugging me, I smiled and hugged him back "But still no boys in your room" He said and I rolled my eyes, He looked at Benzin and gave him the I'm watching you look and walked away.

"Your dad freaks me out"

"He does that to us all.,,But we still love him" I say

"But now where do we go?"

I shrugged "Maybe we just go to the main garden"

"Yeah there's no privacy there at all" Benzin huffed. "What if we just pick a shady spot in this garden" He asked

"In this garden privacy doesn't exist" I sighed "But I do know this one place we can go?" I whispered into his ear.

"Where?" He asked me.

I made him be quiet and took his hand as I guided him into the farthest part of my garden away from the greenhouse and the viewing eyes of my Dad and my meddling siblings. We walked slowly by the hedges that created a wall of bushes and flowers.

"Here it is. I tied the ribbon here so I wouldn't forget the way in"

"Way in where?" He asked.

I pushed the leaves back and revealed a small door hidden away in the back of the hedges. We walked to it and I opened the door. The inside of it was a whole new world, there was nothing but skies of the brightest blue and acres of freshly cut green grass in the greenest of green. The sun shined down on everything shining so bright making everything much brighter. In the not to far distance there was this humongous Oak tree surrounded with smaller trees' formed in a giant semi circle and right in the middle of it there was this giant pond of icy blue water with small little Lilly pads floating freely, it was like a little oasis in a grassy landscape. Surround the background of the oasis there were fields of flowers and Valley landscapes everything around moved with the land where the land rose and curved and fell steep. This was like a portal to a whole new place, a place where you could be free. We walked hand-in-hand deeper and deeper until we got to the little oasis and looked around.

"Vanessa what is this place?" Benzin asked.

"My secret hideaway! I come here all the time when I need to get away" I sigh closing my eyes. "It's so beautiful here isn't it?"

Benzin nods his head "Yes it is" He said then he took my hand "But all the beauty in the world couldn't compare to yours" He said lifting my chin up to kiss me a short second

I smiled at him and then walked away from him and looked over the pond, I could see my reflection in it and then Benzin came over to see his reflection in it. A fish jumped up and splashed around getting our faces sprinkled with water as we both chuckled. I took off my boots and socks and dipped my feet in as a chill from the water overcame me.

"Nice cool water to dip your feet in" I said splashing them about making tiny waves.

"Wanna swim?" Benzin asked.

"I don't have a swim suit"

"You don't need one just strip and dip" He said taking off his clothes and stripped down to his boxers. He was very well built with a nice six pack for a 16 yr. old. I couldn't stop staring at him until he jumped into the water and got me a little wet.

"Well you coming in or what?" He asked me.

I smiled and nodded. I walked behind a tree and stripped down to my bra and underwear, I was a bit uncomfortable exposing myself to Benzin but it's not like it was anything wrong we were just going for a swim. I slowly walked into view and stood beside him at the bank of the water I sat down with the water up to my knees he grabbed my hand and pulled me into the water.

When I popped my head up I shivered "It's chilly"

Benzin swam closer to me and lifted me up out of the water a bit and wrapped his arms around me even though he was soaked "Does this help?" He asked grasping me as close as he could.

I leaned my head backwards on his shoulders. "Oh it helps a lot, thanks" I said closing my eyes.

"Good. Cause get ready for this" Benzin said and just like that he fell backwards in the water taking me with him as he tussled me around under the water. We resurfaced and then we started laughing.

"I can't believe you did that, Jerk!" I said splashing him.

"Hey you're one to talk" He said splashing me back. That was the start of an all out splash war between us it lasted for quite some time until my hands began to get tired, That was when I noticed Benzin was gone he wasn't in the water and he wasn't on the shore either.

"Benzin?" I call his name, next thing I knew I was being lifted out of the water and I saw Benzin pick me up now I was sitting on his shoulders.

"Surprise!" He said flipping me backwards into the water as I sank down into it. I came up and spit water in his face for doing that and we just laughed.

He moved my wet hair from my face to see me smiling passionately at him and we just floated there closely together with my hands to his shoulders and his hands were down my back. He and I moved our faces closer together with each other, we didn't kiss but rather we just barely rubbed our lips to one another as he was gazing into my eyes and I was gazing into his blue/orange eyes.

Benzin moved his hand off my backside and reached down in the water picking up a Lilly flower floating by and stuck it in my hair. "Lovely" He whispered to my ear and then I rested my head to his shoulders feeling his racing heartbeat.

"Let's get out of the water I'm getting cold" I said leaving his warm arms and swimming back to the grass as he followed me. I rung out my hair and he shook like a dog. I walked behind the tree to put my clothes back on and then when I came out Benzin was gone again.

"Benzin?" I asked looking about for him. Where'd he go this time?

"Vanessa" I heard his voice but didn't see him.

"Benzin where are..." I started to say until I heard rustling in the trees

"BOO!" And then just like that he popped up in front of me from the tree branch hanging upside down.

"Benzin!" I snapped with my arms crossed.

"Scared you didn't I?"

"Yes!" I got a bit upset with him by that.

"Oh don't be like that, now give me a kiss" He said puckering his lips.

I smiled at him and then gave him a friendly 'Spiderman' kiss as he held me upside down. "You kiss even better when you're upside down"

"That's a first" He said making me snicker.

I push him back on the branch and giggle "Try and catch me!" I say as I run away. He jumps from the tree and starts after me, I run through the flower fields as he gets closer. I spread my arms like birds wings and just let the sun heat me up and feel the breeze as I ran like it would just pick me up and carry me away. What I didn't realize was that Benzin had caught up to me and lifted me up from my waist off the ground so now I was in mid air as he twirled me around and I was still doing my Queen of the world bid. Benzin set me down as I got to my knees and he got to his, I looked around at all the pretty flowers there were. I grabbed a handful of dandelions and blew the puffy seeds away as the wind carried them off. There came a strong yet gentle breeze that blew the landscape forward and blew more dandelion puffs away as they passed me by they tickled and brushed my face, I kept giggling and blowing, every time one caught my eye I made a wish, the same wish; That Benzin and I would always be there for each other no matter what, cause I loved him so much. I watched them all lift up into the sky and disappeared into nothing. I looked over to Benzin who was now on his feet and he offered me his hand as he pulled me up. The next thing I knew he was twirling me around as we were dancing and running freely like wild free horses. He raced me through a field of tall grass where there were all these butterflies that fluttered about in the sky and around some even fluttered around me if they were big enough I could ride them into the sunshine and look at the world below me. Then we made our way back to the oasis and climbed up the tree to the place where all the fruit was located and we gathered together a big fruit salad underneath the shady tree. I laid down in Benzin's lap as he fed me fruit slices and berries and I did the same to him shooting them into his mouth.

"You've got berry juice on you lips" He said to me.

"Really where?" I asked

"I'll get it for you" He said leaning over and kissing me I closed my eyes as we laid in the grass holding each other and kissing freely without fear of being seen by anyone.

"My heart Is beating fast because of you" I whispered in between kisses.

"My mind is all about you right now" He flirted going back for another kiss. I felt so loved in his arms being with him I was a whole other girl, but not really because I could always be the sweet kind girl I was and he wouldn't say anything about it.

Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am home again

Me and Benzin just walked hand in hand with each other all over the place not caring where we were going, as long as we were with each other.

However far away
I will always love you
However long I stay
I will always love you
Whatever words I say
I will always love you

For a while me and Benzin found a nice shady place underneath the comfort of a weeping willow tree who's leaves moves brisk fully against the warm spring sun there were tiny little flower petals that were being blown in by the breeze so I started picking a few from the air and weaving them around a thick string and made a tiny little flower necklace. I looked at Benzin who smiled and held me closer in his arms as we watched the sunset upon the skyline. It as soon time to go home and Benzin decided to be a gentlemen and carried me all the way back to the garden.

"Wow I have to admit that was a fun day" He said holding me close to him.

I placed a hand to his cheeks "I know I got to spend the most romantic day of the year with you my Boyfriend"

"And I got to be in the arms of my sexy girlfriend!" He said winking at me.

"You're a little young to be calling me sexy aren't you?" I eyed him.

"What can I say I call 'em as I see 'em and I see a lot from you" He whispered, I blushed hot red on my cheeks and wiped my forehead.

I walked leaning on Benzin's shoulder as he walked me back to my greenhouse door. "Goodnight, I'll see you tomorrow" I said softly.

"One last goodbye kiss" He said. I smiled and gave him one final kiss, he wrapped to me and I wrapped to him as I stroked his blended stripped hair and he pulls me closer on him, he leaned me back a little dipping me and we kissed like that for a while.

"You're the best girlfriend I've ever had" He whispered to me.

"You're the best boyfriend I ever had" I smiled and he kissed me again. He lifted me up and pressed me against the door and kissed me even harder, I smiled underneath his kiss and I could tell he felt it too.

"You taste sweet like bubblegum" He said to me.

"That's so cheesy! You're cheesy!" I said nudging him

"You like that about me" Making that face at me again.

"Yeah I do" I confess touching his face and closing my eyes.

I could stay like that forever but I had to let him go now "I better get inside" I said trying to walk away.

"Wait before you do" He said pulling me back and kissing me again, I was shocked and then I kissed him back again and we just stayed glued like this.

"I could stay like this all night" He whispered to me.

"Why don't we?" I said between kisses and he pinned me on the door again leaving me covered in kisses.

"How long do you think before your parents find out we're doing this?" He whispered to me.

"I think they found out!" I froze in place and turned to see my dad glaring at me and Benzin with his arms crossed at me.

"Daddy!" I said nervously.

"Hey Mr. Bluebury!" Benzin said as nervously as me. "I was just bringing your daughter back home for the night" He said pushing me forward a bit.

"I'm sure you were" Dad said narrowing his vision.

Benzin got nervous and looked another way for a moment "Well Vanessa today was fun but I better go home now"

"Okay I'll see you tomorrow then" I grinned.

"Yes you will!" He flirted with me and blushed again.

"Ahem!" Dad snapped glaring still.

Benzin moved away from me and we looked from each other "Goodnight Nessie *Kiss* Sir" Benzin said to me and my dad before he walked away from me. Right before he walked out the gave he waved back at me and I blew him another goodnight kiss and waved back at him. It wasn't until I felt my dad yank me inside I felt sad again.

"Dad you want to tell me what you were doing?" I asked a little upset.

"Funny, I was about to ask you that same question?" He glared at me.

"Benzin and I were on a date and he was just saying goodnight to me with a kiss" I explain.

"Oh yeah as passionately as he was kissing you I bet he was expecting an 'Good night'" Dad said air quoting that last part.

"What do you have against Benzin anyway? We've been dating for months and you still make him uncomfortable to be around you"

"That's the idea" He smiled and I just glared at him. "Vanessa I just want to make sure you're with the right type of guy who do you wrong" He said holding my face.

I shook my head "Benzin's not like that, He's the most charming, caring boy I know" I sighed. "And you're not making it any easier to bring him around here if you're just gonna scare him like that"

"I'm just being very cautious" He said.

I rolled my eyes "Dad, Benzin and Jr. are best friends, if you can trust him to be Jr.s friend then you can trust him as my boyfriend"

"Alright if you're sure. But I'm still gonna be watching you"

"Daddy you are hopeless" I snicker and then race up to my room. I jump into my night clothes and then rest in bed, I rubbed on my hair and felt I still had the lily pad flower in my hair, I smiled and set it in the small teacup of water I kept by my bed. I laid flat down looking up in the ceiling thinking of the wonderful day I had with my boyfriend

I got shocked when my phone rang and I answered it "Vanessa speaking" I answered.

"Nessie-boo" I heard a witty voice

I giggled "Benzin Hi, didn't expect you to call so soon"

"I just missed my flower baby" I could hear the flirting in his voice

"Oh you and the nicknames" I giggled twirling a strand of my hair around.

"You know you love them"

"I do!" I admit "And look I'm sorry about my dad he's so overprotective of me" I groaned

"No worries, your dad's cool and he's got one fine looking daughter"

I laughed "Benzin, you really need to stop that, what if my dad heard you say that"

"I'm on the phone he can't hear me"

"I know but still" I smiled, I let out a slight yawn after that.

"You sound sleepy should I let you go"

"No I'm fine *yawns* today just wore me out"

"You need to go to sleep and rest that pretty face of yours. I'll call you later" He said and I grinned

"Alright good night" I said softly

"It will be a good night when I dream of you" He said I smiled at that

"You're sweet!"

"You're my everything good night"

"Goodnight" I said slowly and turned off my phone.

The next morning...

I woke with the best feeling ever, yesterday was the most romantic day of my whole entire life, and I got to spend it with the most wonderful guy ever. Benzin and me were a perfect match for each other he was everything I wanted from a boy and I probably mostly everything he wanted from a girl. Other than my friends I felt like he was the only guy who could really understand me in the way that no one else could possibly understand.

Now forever we will live as one,
Floating in love's atmosphere.
If love is a piece of dust,
Shining in the sun...

I picked up the photo of me and him on our first date it was at the Ice cream shop and he and I were sharing a big Ice cream sundae. I felt it flat as I could to my chest making my heart beat and then I dance around my room while music played in my head.

All I want is a song of love,

Song of love to sing for you.
All I need is this song of love,
To sing for you.

I smile and set my picture frame back down but before I did I kissed the picture and held it closer to my heart just like where Benzin was. I set it down and then plopped my lily pad flower from my teacup and cupped it in both my hands as I danced around my room once more. Then I twirled out my room and danced through the halls to the top of the stairs. I slid down thee railing and flipped off to my feet, outside the greenhouse I saw my mum and my siblings in the daylight I wasn't paying them any mind when I pranced over to them.

"Good morning Vanessa!" I hear mum say to me but I was too deep in a romantic feeling to respond to her. I was sure they were all wondering why I was happy today, but I was not happy, I was in love.

I danced right past them all with my eyes closed in a daydream and then I hit something sturdy when I looked over my shoulder I accidentally hit Dad.

"Oh Morning Daddy!" I say kissing his cheek and then dancing away humming to myself.

I danced right out the gate and then when I was alone in the alley I slid down to the floor with my knees buckled high on my body. I looked down at the lily flower he gave me yesterday so soft and beautiful and smelled so divine; just like my love for him. I started to pull the petals till I got to the last few

"He loves me!" I smiled and tossed that aside to pick up the next one "He loves me not" I frowned throwing that aside, the last petal was unanimous "HE LOVES ME!" I shout as it blew off my hand. "I knew it!" I get to my feet and up to the garden gate and happily strolled inside, where I find the girls talking.

"Girls!"

"Nessie!" They all said running to my arms, London squeezed me super tight "Oh girl tell me everything"

"About what?"

"Your date with Benzin yesterday how was it?" She said getting in my face about it.

"It was...Enchanting like something out of a wild fairy tale come true!" I said twirling and then falling back into the grass beside them.

They all came and overlooked me from their feet "Sounded very intimate?" Scarlett smirked.

"Oh it was...not intimate in that way but it was something close to that" I said plucking grass from the ground.

"And how was Benzin during all that?" Fuscia asked.

I sighed and thought of the words to say "A god to my eyes" I said starting to blush pink. London pulls me back to my feet and then I hear someone say.

"YO-HOO!" We turn around and I smile wide when I see my charming guy come our way, probably for me. "Girls!" He said playfully bowing to us.

"Hi Benzin!" We all said with girly pitched voices.

He looked up to us, mostly me and smirked "Or should I say Girls and..." He took my arm and yanked me into him with one hand on my backside and the other he had to my putting me in a dipping pose "My Lady" He said putting on his bad boy smirk.

"Good morning to you too" I giggled as he brought me in for a kiss.

"The flames of my heart are burning as hot for you more than the suns flames" He whispered in my ear.

"Nice use of a haiku as a pickup line" I compliment him.

"Thanks I do fancy the pick up lines myself" He boasts and I roll my eyes.

"Yo! Benzin" I hear someone say as he leaves the kiss and looks back to find Jr. and Jackson waiting for him. "C'mon are you coming with us or what?" They yelled.

"I'm coming give me a moment!" I called back and then looked at me. "I don't want to leave you" he whispered nuzzling our noses.

I snickered to him "Go on you need a little guy time!"

"I'd rather have you and me time" He winked.

I blushed even more "Maybe some other time" I said and frowned a little "Just go I'll be fine"

"Okay, I love you!" He said kissing me once more and then ran off. I waved at him with even more blush on my cheeks and then I turned back to the girls who were all giggling at me.

"Benzin sure seemed hooked on you for a moment" Scarlett eyes me.

"He must still be getting over yesterday, it was quite an unexpected experience" I said with a twirl of my hair lock.

"Oh daddy hi?" I said still with a loving look on my face.

"You're in a good mood today?" Dad said eyeing me with a grin.

I nodded and shrugged "Yeah well yesterday lived on through me, I had such a great date Benzin was so enchanting when he held me in his arms and made me feel so happy" I said wrapping my arms around me as if it were Benzin doing it to me.

Dad looked at me with narrow eyes "I see and what happened on this date?"

"Let's just say Benzin showed me the better side of him" I smiled and then skipped away.

That whole day I was just so locked on one thing and that was Benzin. There was no boy like him in the entire world and I loved him dearly, Sometimes without knowing it I would sit under the apple tree and look into the sky daydreaming about me and him and what would become of us in our future years. I knew we were both young but just to fantasize about my future with him by my side, to picture me one day walking down the aisle and into the arms of my most beloved, to raise a family of our own, to forever be a part of each other till the end of all times.

That night I got myself tucked away in bed and my mum and dad came inside to check on me "You were very happy today sweetie" Mum said sitting on my bed side.

"I felt overly happy today mum! Benzin is such a perfect guy" I sighed

"I wouldn't be getting to close to him Vanessa, boys are not always what they seem, trust me" Dad said.

I rolled my eyes "Well I know Benzin is exactly what he seems, and so much more" I sighed.

I heard mum giggle and she kissed my forehead "Goodnight sweetheart"

"Goodnight mum"

"See you in the morning baby girl I love you" Dad whispered in my ear.

I gave him a kiss on the cheek "I love you too daddy, sleep tight" I said giving him a hug and then they left the room.

I picked up the framed picture of Benzin and me again and smiled "Benzin you are truly the guy for me"

Dream...

Me and the love of my life were merrily walking through the sand at the beach in the bright afternoon sunshine. I was wearing a crisp tank top and long flowing skirt and sandals all in the purest of white and my love was holding my hand wearing a white tank top and swim shorts with his sandals too. He and I were strolling alone as our feet made tracks in the sand only to be washed away by the sea waves that tickled my feet when they crashed upon the shore. Benzin scooped down and picked up a shiny pink seashell that looked as though it was bejeweled with glitter.

"It's so pretty" I said holding it to my ear to hear the ocean breeze

"That's nothing compared to you" He said kissing my cheek.

I snuggled up to him close as we just kept walking along the shoreline, where the sand touched the sea. We climbed up a few black rocks covered with green algae and tiny starfish and other sea life. We could see all the way out to the seas and then some. I jumped from the highest rock and into the shallows waters, There I stood water up to my ankles and sand squishing in my toes. I closed my eyes and lifted my hand down to the water scooping a hand full of water and then splashing it up as tiny droplets splashed in my face. They sun was so war, the sky was so clear and the water was so refreshing.

I saw 2 hands appear on my shoulders as they snaked their way down to my waist. Over my shoulder I saw Benzin wrapping his arms around me as I turned around and wrapped m arms around him. I could feel his heart beat in his chest and I bet he could feel mine too. I looked back up at him and he leaned down and kissed me tenderly as I brought his face closer to mine.

He reached for my hand and dragged me out to the depths of the sea with water splashing in our faces and he spun me around as we both fell into the sea. It was like I was breathing underwater like a mermaid as we dove down deeper into the underworld like together. I swam over him and clung to his back as he propelled us through the waters and mixed us in with the sea life. There undersea world was so beautiful, coral reefs of all colors were everywhere and such beautiful fish and sea flowers decorated on the ocean floor. We looked up to where the surface was as the sun light seeped through and shined down on us and all the waters making everything glimmer and shimmer.

I looked over to him and hugged him from behind as he tried and hug me back. He took me off his back and began to twirl me around, like we were dancing underwater and then we spun up higher and higher until we shot back to the surface to engage in another kiss

Somehow as the sun was setting we stood wrapped to each other waist to waist in the ocean looking away from the beach as the sun looked as though it was setting right into the water.

*Tap noise*

I hear taping on the glass that woke me up and I opened my window to see. I looked about but it was too dark to see anything, I shrug and close my window.

"Vanessa!" I hear someone shout and I look out my window again, that voice sounded very familiar "Down here!" I look below my window and see a happy loving face.

"Benzin what are you doing here this late?"

"I couldn't sleep I was thinking of you too much I had to sneak out and see you again" He said, I smiled and placed my hand to my heart feeling it pump faster.

"And since it's such a clear starry night I wanted to ask you if you wanna go star gazing with me?"

"Star gazing?"

"Yeah you know you and me could just go and lay in the grass, look at the stars, see what we can see...maybe make out a little" He said flirting with me.

I covered my mouth and giggled "I'd love to, but where do we go?"

"How about your little hideaway" He suggests.

"Okay I'll be right down" I raced over and put on my boots and wrapped my jacket over my pajamas and to my window I went.

It was a long drop to the ground "How do I get down?" I asked.

"Grab the rope" He said flinging a rope up to my and I tied it to my bed frame and climbed down it like I was rock climbing down a wall. I jumped down and into Benzin's arms and then we made our way across the garden to my secret hideaway. The stars there were even brighter and not a cloud in sight you could see them a lot more clearer here than I ever could back at the garden. This was the most beautiful sight of all. I was really dark so I couldn't really make out a lot of things but luckily Benzin brought his flashlight to guide the way. We sat in a soft patch of flowers and just looked up at the stars, seeing what we could see and making pictures in our minds.

"The stars sure are shining bright tonight" I said as they twinkled in my eye/

Benzin leaned on his arm and looked me over "They're not the only things shining bright tonight" He said kissing my lips.

"Oh hey look I see a constellation?" I said pointing.

"Where?"

"The big dipper right there" I said pointing to it, the big dipper was usual the easiest to find in the night sky.

"Oh yeah...Hey I can see the Lion constellation right there" I turned to where Benzin was tracing the outline, it did look like a lion.

"Good eye!" I compliment.

All those starts twinkling above us seemed so magical and beautiful. I reached out my hand like I could touch one and I felt a green flicker dance around my finger in fact there were a lot of green flickers above our heads that mixed in with the stars.

"Fireflies!" I said as they started dancing above our heads getting mixed with the stars.

One of them landed on my nose making everything bright green, it tickled when it crawled on my nose and I started to laugh "Gotcha!" Benzin said as he snatched it off my face.

"Hey let it go!" I said nudging him. He rolled his eyes and let it go as it joined the others dancing and flickering the night away. I was so mesmerized by it all those tiny green firefights dancing about. The fireflies danced around our heads and then the whole swarm of them just took off in a certain direction, and for some reason I had the urge to follow them.

"Hey let's follow them" I said getting up and following them to wherever they were going. We raced them through the tall grass and through the open fields till we made it into the woods, but I was all alone and Benzin was behind me.

"Hurry up slow poke!" I shout to him.

"I'm coming!" He was all out of breath by the time he meet me at the woods and I had to stop and wait for him to catch his breath.

"Now c'mon!" I cried racing through the woods and trees but now we had lost the trail of fireflies by that time.

"Great I don't have a clue where to go now" I sighed.

"Wait babe look down there" Benzin points to the distance where there was a flash of green light eliminating from the trees.

"That must be them let's go!" I said taking his arm and running with him to the light at the ends of the woods. when we got there and ducked through the bushes, we came face to face with the big river.

"Vanessa!" Benzin said yanking me back before I went falling inside.

"Phew thanks love" I said kissing him slightly.

He moved from the kiss and gasped "Nessie Look" He said, I turned back to the river and above it there were all the zillions of fireflies hovering together in a swarm of a bright green ball. They stayed that way for a moment before they began to spread off in groups and hover and dance about like they were putting on a show. I looked around and saw that all the animals near the woods had come out to see the fireflies show. I saw them do all sorts of things like create cool shapes of flowers and animals and they did cool pattern and flashing designs. At one point of them came and flickered over to my face and I gently blew it back to the group, then the whole swarm of fireflies came by me and they did the most amazing this they literally lifted me off the group about 2 feet up and now I was floating with my arms out spread like I was flying as they all came and covered me from hat to toe so I was shining bright green and purple all over.

I looked down to Benzin and he waved at me and I winked back. Then the fireflies started to hover around Benzin covering him in bright green and blue lights and they lifted him up to where I was so now we were once more face to face.

"Nice fireflies"

"You too"

He reached out his hand for mine and I grabbed it as we got slowly spun around one another still locking hands as hard as we could we were now hand in hand like the king and queen of the world. Our fireflies moved us closer as Benzin held my body close to his and we danced slowly in circles in the air, this all felt to good to be true. That's when the fireflies started to lower Benzin back to the ground and then they just flew right from underneath as I fell quickly.

I landed right into Benzin's arms and looked at him like I had never looked before, and he looked at me the same way, I felt a sudden click with him and my heart was racing like crazy. Benzin gave me a warm grin and I stroked his cheek with my palm, smooth and fuzzy and tender to the touch, it wasn't long afterwards that we leaned until our noses nuzzled and we just stayed that way with our eyes closed feeling a pleasuring moment, I slowly opened my eyes and got a surprise, the fireflies had forms a large heart around me and Benzin and then a few dropped flower petals down over us mixing themselves sin creating such a dazzling mood scene.

I felt Benzin set me to the floor but we still stayed close together with his arms around my waist and my arms to his neck. Somewhere within that we locked lips together and never wanted to let go. I felt like I was in a dream I never wanted to wake up from. We turned our attention back to the fireflies as they left the heart shape and flew higher and higher into the sky and then burst onto a pattern that looked so much like fireworks bursting in the skylines. Lights showered down on our faces and me and Benzin just stayed lock with one another. He smirked at me and I smirked at him, then he leaned down and picked up and another flower and put it back in my hair. I wanted to say something to him but I didn't want to risk spoiling this beautiful moment we shared.

"Benzin I..." I tried to say but he blocked my words.

"No don't say a word...Just kiss me, Kiss me now!" He said, not holding back, I practically leaped into his arms I kissed and held him tightly wrapped in his body.

"You have no clue how in love with you I am right now" He whispered to me

"Don't speak you'll ruin the moment" I said kissing still.

We let go and we walked back to my garden, it was still dark out but the sun was going to be out in a few more hours and I needed to sleep. We crept up to my greenhouse and right under my window.

I looked back at him one more time "Well Benzin...I-I don't know what to say to you, that was...This night, was just so romantic" I said holding his arms tightly in mine.

"We should sneak out more that more often" I whispered in a giggle.

"Maybe we will" He said leaning closer to me for another kiss. "But I don't think your dad would approve"

"He'd never know we got away with this one we can do it so many more times"

He smirked and grabbed my waist "I look forward to it" He said as we engaged in more lip action with each other.

I grabbed the rope I used to sneak out my window while still on his lips and I slowly moved away as I claimed back up and into my window to my room. I jumped through my room and looked back down to my beloved.

"Sleep well fair maiden"

"Same to you my brave knight"

He blew me a farewell kiss before strolling into the bushes and disappearing out the garden. I stayed at my window looking at the last few stars shimmering before the first break of sunlight appeared. I picked the flower Benzin gave me from my hair and laid it gently on my window sill. I closed my window and drew the curtains as I snugged back into bed to sleep.

...

The next day at the garden while I was with the girls just talking my mind was focused on other things, while my friends were having a little group discussion I turned my attention over to the garden and I saw the boys over by the wishing well talking, actually Jr. and Jackson were talking I saw Benzin there minding his own business drawing in his notepad occasionally looking up at the boys every now and then. I couldn't felt but feel such a strong pull of attraction on him, he made me feel warm and fuzzy inside.

"Vanessa what do you think?" Fuscia said but I was nowhere near listening to her I was too focused on her brother to notice.

"Uh Vanessa" I hear London say to me, but once again I was not listening, she tried waving her hands in front of me but I was already lost in a deep trance associated with Benzin.

"Is she okay?" Scarlett asked

"I think she's in some sort of trance" Fuscia said.

"Why?" Scarlett asked

"She has that look on her face, and I know that look, Vanessa's in love!" London cried out, noticing I had that longing puppy love look on my face.

"Love?" Scarlett and Fuscia said at once

"With your brother, she's been staring at him this whole time" Violet said noticing I had been gazing helplessly over at the boy of my affection.

I felt someone pelt me with a face full of water and I snapped back to normal "HEY!" I snapped looking at the girls "What was that for?"

"Hey London was the one who splashed you" Violet said and I turned to London.

She was smiling a little "Sorry Vanessa but you were zoned out on us"

"I was?" I said not even noticing.

"Yeah you were like gone and You had this look on you face" Fuscia said copying my love sick facial expression.

"I wasn't making that face" I denied.

"Yes you were, you kept sighing and looking like that"

I shrugged and looked away a little "I was thinking of something I like is all"

"Something or someone you like!" Violet eyed me.

I gave her a hard look "Whatever Violet"

"Oh come on Vanessa we all know how much you're crushing on Benzin"

"So what?"

"Nothing I think it's sweet" London said hugging me.

"I think you're a little obsessed with him" Violet says.

I glare at her "I am not!"

"Yes you are! all night long I can hear you mumbling in you sleep about you and Him, all night it goes!" Violet said covering her ears.

I gave her a frown "So what he's special to me and I'm special to him"

"But there's such a thing as overdoing it" She says.

"I don't over do anything"

"What about yesterday you went all out on the whole attractive meter" Violet argued.

"Oh yeah Benzin was going on and on and on last night when he got home about how hot you looked yesterday" Scarlett said as she and Fuscia snickered.

"Oh he said that, that's sweet" I said blushing and then looking back to him, he was still drawing but he must've had a feeling I was staring at him cause he looked over to me and winked doing that smirk I loved so much. I held my body with one arm and waved slowly with the other before turning back to my girls who were all giving me deep smirks.

I got nervous "What?"

"You are so helplessly in love with him!"

"Bahumbug"

"Oh come on now Benzin feels the same way about you!" Fuscia said.

"He does?"

Scarlett nodded "Yes all he talks about is you!"

"Really?"

"You should see his room he has pictures of you everywhere, everything in his life has you in it. He sing about you in the shower and he thinks about you when we're eating dinner, there can't be a day that goes by he doesn't think about you"

I smiled knowing he thought about me so much "He must really love me"

"I know he does"

"And I overheard him say he was planning something extra special for one of your dates" Scarlett tipped me off.

I got excited "What is it?"

"He didn't say but he said it was going to make you very happy"

"Did he say when it was happening?"

"Why don't you go ask him yourself" Fuscia said.

"Oh I can't he probably wants to surprise me or something" I said then I turned back to him and saw he was now talking to the boys. "But I guess it wouldn't hurt to ask him" I said starting over to where he was.

Meanwhile with the guys Jackson and Jr. were having a conversation and Benzin was there drawing In his doodle pad, with only one thing on his mind, his sweet love interest.

"I'm telling you bronze greatly surpasses brains in fighting" Jackson said.

"No you're wrong!" Jr. said back "It's all about strategy when fighting, get the better of your opponent" He smirked

Jackson shook his head "That's the dumbest think I ever heard"

Jr. smirked "Maybe to you"

He glared hard "Benzin will you please tell him who's right here?" Jackson waited for an answer but Benzin was too busy with his drawing to even hear his friends.

"Benzin? Benzin!" Jr. screamed at him

"Huh? what? oh yeah what you said Jackson" Benzin said back not even trying to hear them.

"Ha told you I was right" Jackson said and Jr. rolled his eyes.

"Benzin are you even listening to what I said" Jr. asked.

"Yes Jr. I agree with you on that" Benzin said to into his drawing to pay attention.

"What you drawing?" Jr. asked.

"Stuff" Benzin replied to focused on his drawing.

"What kind of stuff?"

"You know stuff stuff" He shrugged.

Jackson yanked the pad from him by force "Hey give that back!" Benzin shouted trying to pry it from Jackson's meaty hands.

"So what is this?" Jackson said looking at it. This whole time Benzin had been drawing a very well illustrated detailed picture of Vanessa with little hearts all over.

Jr. and Jackson started to laugh hysterically "Oh isn't that cute! Benzin's drawing pictures of his little girlfriend" Jackson cooed

"Talk about obsession" Jr. said still laughing

"Give me that!" Benzin demanded snatching it away "I'm not obsessed with your sister thank you"

"Yes you are, you have pages of paper with drawings of her and you" Jr. said.

"So what? she's great for drawing" He said making up something.

"Dude you really need to chill out, before Vanessa thinks you're a creepy stalker or something"

Benzin rolled his eyes "She doesn't think that, she's the sweetest, most kind-hearted girl in the world" He sighed happily.

The boys gagged Benzin rolled his eyes again "You guys just don't know her" Benzin smiled.

"I'm her brother I know Vanessa" Jr. points out.

"Not the way I do" He sighed happily

"Oh god why don't you just ask her to marry you"

"3 years from now that'll happen" He said.

"Like I said...Obsession" Jr. mocked him.

"I am not obsessed!" Benzin denied again

"Benzin and Vanessa sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G" Jr. and Jackson started to sing.

Benzin shook his head and rolled his eyes "You 2 are such 5 yr. olds" He said in a very annoyed tone.

"Hey Benzin 3 yrs. from now when you and Vanessa are husband and wife which one's that gonna make you?" Jackson mocked as they both laughed.

"Very funny" Benzin said unimpressed.

"Why wait 3 yrs. they're so into each other they're practically married now, all they need are the rings" Jr. said as they laughed even more. Benzin tried so hard to ignore them but they were just making it so difficult.

"I'm warning you guys, knock it off!" Benzin glared.

"Why this is so much fun?"

"You 2 are dating Violet and London how would you both feel if I started mocking you about your relationships?"

Both boys looked at him and smirked "You wouldn't have too" Jr. said

"Yeah we're not obsessed with our girlfriends! Unlike some guys who are drawn to their knees for their girls" Jackson snickered

"I...AM...NOT...OBSESSED!"

"Oh is Benzin getting mad? Jr. maybe bring his wife over here to calm him down *Kiss noises*" Jackson mocked him

Benzin slammed his notepad on the ground and glared to them both. "Okay let me spill this out for you both once and for all! I'm not obsessed with Vanessa ok, she's not all that to me, there would be any other girl that would be better for me than her. She is not the only girl I could get, I could have as many girls as I wanted and Vanessa would just be one amongst them all with nothing special at all about her. For all I care she would be the last girl I ever dated with every girl more prettier and smarter than she is, so for the last time I am not obsessed with Vanessa and never tie me to that again!" Benzin snapped at them. The guys both had shocked and nervous faces on them looking pretty worried.

"Why are you guys looking like that?" Benzin asked

"Uh, Benzin" Jr. pointed.

Benzin turned around and Vanessa was there with her mouth dropped open and tears running down her face overhearing what Benzin had just said about her, but out of context.

"Vanessa!" Benzin announced shocked to see her there "Uhm H-how much of that did you hear?" He said smiling nervously.

Vanessa just stood there with tears in her face and her mouth twitching, she was about to blow at any second.

"Vanessa let me explain what you think you just heard" Benzin said walking toward her but Vanessa took steps back. "Oh come now Vanessa you can't possible think that I..." But before Benzin could finish Vanessa violently shoved him to the ground and then ran off crying with her face buried in her hands.

"VANESSA ,NO WAIT A SECOND!" Benzin called out to her, she was already out of there.

Vanessa pov

I ran right out the main garden and crashed into mine, I was so furious and hurt right now. After all this time I didn't think Benzin would lie about ever loving me, after what I just heard him say, his true feelings for me were not all what I had thought, he didn't love me he cared nothing for me. Everything he ever told me was fake, just to lure me in so he could beat my heart out, well he succeeded. I had never been in more pain than I was right now.

While I was crying I toppled over my parents and just stood there crying even more. "Oh mum, dad I'm sorry" I said standing up.

"No worried sweetie" Dad said helping mum up. I started to wipe my tears so they wouldn't see me but the tears were coming out faster than I could clear them.

"Vanessa what's wrong?" Mum said concerned seeing me crying. I just covered my face and dashed right past them into the greenhouse and up to my room.

I jumped in bed and cried and cried my heart out. I should've known Benzin never really liked me, no boy has ever liked me because I wasn't thought or whatever. I thought Benzin was different from other guys but I guess I was wrong, he was just playing me and I was stupid enough to fall for it.

"I hate boys!" I screamed to myself.

I heard banging on the door, the last thing I needed was company. "Get lost!" I screamed as loud as I can.

"Honey It's me!" Dad said walking inside and seeing me crying my eyes out.

"Not now daddy I'm too busy wallowing in sorrow" I sighed turning away from him.

He sat on my bed and lifted my chin to see his face "That's why I'm here. What's wrong?" He said to me.

I turned my face away "I don't want to talk about it"

He pulled me closer as I rested on his arm hiding my face a bit "Well I do, I don't like to see my baby girl in so much pain. Now tell me what's wrong" He started brushing my hair and back.

I looked up at him and sighed. "Well you see what happened was..." Just as I was about to tell him.

"Knock knock, hey you too" I heard mums voice come through the door as she walked in on us.

"Hey mum!" I said grinning a bit. She smiled and then turned to Dad.

"Giving our daughter a little comfort" She snickered.

"I was until you rudely disturbed us, and for what reason might I add" Dad said joking which made me and mum smile.

"Vanessa Benzin's here to see you" Mum said to me.

I gasped and then burned an angry red "NO! TELL HIM TO GET AWAY FROM ME I NEVER WANT TO SEE HIM AGAIN!" I snapped like crazy.

"Whoa! What's the matter, Benzin is your boyfriend he can help you with your problem" Dad said to me.

"Don't you see Benzin is the problem" I cried

"How?"

"I was walking up to him to ask him something important and I overheard him talking to Jackson and Jr. about how he really feels about me. You should've heard what he said about me it was awful!" I said kicking and screaming.

"Oh it couldn't have been that bad"

"YES IT WAS! HE DOESN'T CARE ABOUT ME AT ALL! HE BROKE MY HEART!"

"He broke your heart and he has the nerve to come here I'm going to have a few words with that disrespectful little...

"Gnomeo please don't make this worse!" Mum asked him "Just go ask him to leave politely"

"How do you be polite to the boy who makes your daughter like that" He said looking to Vanessa who was kicking and screaming like crazy.

"Just do it!" Mum said pushing him out the door to go downstairs.

Gnomeo walked down to the door and saw Benzin waiting there who seemed a little scared to see his girlfriend's father "Hey Mr. Bluebury you're looking nice today" Benzin said smiling, but Gnomeo was nowhere near smiling at him "I see, you're not a fan of compliments...Can I speak to Vanessa please?" He asked changing the subject.

"No! you can't speak to her! Better yet you can't get near her ever again!" Gnomeo snapped like crazy.

"Oh that's a bit much don't you think?" Benzin asked

"For the boy who broke my daughters heart it's not" He glared.

"You don't understand this was a huge misunderstanding I really need to speak to her"

"I don't care you're not speaking to her ever again!"

"But-But" Benzin stammered

"Now will you please leave" Gnomeo said closing the door on him

Benzin tried to hold the door open "I can't go until I speak with her" He said.

"Then you can wait all night cause she's not seeing you and you're not seeing her again!"

Benzin was a bit shocked "But...But..."

"Daddy what is going on down here?" Vanessa said coming back downstairs.

"Nothing sweetie I was just handling something" Gnomeo said

"Vanessa!" Benzin screamed behind the door.

"Benzin what are you doing here?" Vanessa said crossing her arms.

"Don't worry sweetie he was just leaving" Gnomeo said still trying to push him out.

"Wait, Vanessa I really need to say something to you" He called to her.

"I said you were not speaking to her anymore!" Gnomeo snapped again

"Vanessa please you don't understand, what you heard from me was not what you think at all"

"It wasn't?" Vanessa said slowly.

"Of course it wasn't I would never say anything bad about you. Just let me explain" He begged.

I thought it over a moment, I was still mad with him but at the same time I wanted to know the truth before I made any hazy decisions. "Daddy could you leave us alone for a while" I asked him

He looked at me "I don't think that's the best I deal right now"

"Daddy I'll be fine you can trust me" I tell him with soft trusting eyes

He smiled and kissed my forehead "Ok but if he gives you any trouble I can get him for you"

"I know" I smiled as he walked away and then I walked outside where Benzin was. "Start talking"

"Vanessa listen to me what I said back there was not the truth"

"Then why'd you say it?"

"The guys were just mocking me about liking you so much and I said what I said just to get them off my back about it"

"You're telling me the truth" I said wiping away tears

"Vanessa you and I are meant to be together I would never lie to you about"

"So do I really mean anything to you?"

"You mean more to me than anyone ever has"

"But what you said about you dating any other girl besides me, what do you think about that?" I asked

"You can date a lot of girls Vanessa, but you can only have feelings for one of them"

"And how do you know I'm that girl for you?"

"Well how do you know I'm the guy for you?"

"I can feel it in my heart" I said placing my hand to my heart.

Benzin placed his hand on my heart and I placed my free hand on his heart "Then what do you think my answer is" He said smiling

I frowned a bit "Benzin I...I...I..." I tried to get out of me but before I could I felt his lips press to mine and rather than fight it I just kissed him back.

"I love you too" He whispered in my ears and then we just went back to kissing wild and freely.

"I'm sorry I doubted your love for me"

"Don't be my love for you is strong my beauty" He said to me as I kissed him even more.

"Ahem!" I heard a voice and then my dad popped up leaning on the side of the door.

I let Benzin go and stood up straight "Daddy good news Benzin and I worked it out and we're still going out together" I said smiling nervously.

"I see" He said with a glare.

"Trust me sir I will take good care of your daughter, I love her as much as you do" Benzin said holding my side.

"You trust me right daddy?" I said giving him those eyes.

Dad smiled and shook his head "Of course I trust you sweetie, but I'm watching you boy" Dad said to Benzin before we walked away.

"And now that he's gone" Benzin said surprisingly dipping me and then kissed me all over again. I giggled and then kissed him hard again as well. He

"Easy there Benzin I'm only 15 remember" I said pushing him off my neck a little.

"I know it's just *Sniff* I'm attracted to your scent" He said sniffing my neck making me laugh.

"My perfume and stop sniffing me it tickles"

"Oh it does, does it?" He smirked

"Why are you smirking at me like that?" I asked getting a weird feeling.

"Come here you!" He grabbed me and started to tickle me all over the place

"HAHAHA BENZIN HAHA BENZIN QUIT PLEASE, I CAN'T STAND BEING TICKLED" I said rolling on the floor laughing.

"Don't act like you don't love this" He said to me.

I was rolling all over the ground getting dirt in my hair and holding my sides in pain "Benzin please top you're going to make me wet myself" I said with tears running down my cheek.

"Gross!" Benzin said finally letting me catch a break and I stood up and coughed and gagged trying to get my breathing bad.

"Man you're as red as your mum?" He said noticing the red flashes in my face.

"Hahaha very funny" I said sarcastically

"Thanks I try" He boasted

I slapped my forehead "That was sarcasm fool" I giggled

"You know you like my sense of humor" He said to me leaning in closer

I closed my eyes and leaned in closer to him about to kiss him "Yes I do!" I said softly still leaning forwards. I opened my eyes to see Benzin's were closed and I smirked. "But not as much as I'm going to love this" I said then stood up and tossed a water balloon filled with black ink and it got all over his face turning him black in all over.

"What the heck Vanessa" He snapped wiping his face clear.

I couldn't help but laugh hard "Serves you right for tickling me" I said throwing another ink balloon at him this time it got on his body.

"Vanessa!" He screamed.

I laughed even more "Well gotta run, see ya!" I said making a break for it before he got up and came after me.

"HEY COME BACK HERE SO I CAN GET MY PAYBACK!" He shouted after me as he and I ran through my garden laughing and smiling. Yes Benzin was certainly the best there was.

...

Another day another time for me to be in love. I got myself all dressed up for another day with the best guy in the world, the day was just right for a day with him, Benzin made me feel ways I had never felt before and I just loved it.

I waked into my garden to welcome the day with a nice relaxing stroll.

"Vanessa!" I hear someone shout my name and from the corner of my eye I see mum struggling to move a big bag

"Hi mum" I smiled trotting over to her "What you need?"

"Could you help me love this bag of fertilizer, it's really heavy!"

"Sure!" I said grabbing the need and dragging it along with her.

That's when we heard a lot of crashing inside the house and then Jr. burst out running with Violet on his heels, they ran around us in circles making me dizzy.

"What are you 2 doing?" Mum asked

"Getting Payback on Jr.!" Violet hissed.

"Oh I'm standing here!" Jr. said not afraid of here.

Violet grabbed a handful of fertilizer and threw it at him, But Jr. had quick reflexes and instead it hit me, getting me covered.

I shrieked "Gross! Violet now look what you did?" I began scrapping it off.

"Oh a little dirt never hurt you!" She rolled her eyes.

"You missed me Violet!" Jr. smirked running off.

"GET BACK HERE!" Violet raced after him.

Mum came to my side and helped me scrap the dirt off but it just smudged everywhere "You ok Nessa?"

"I have a date with Benzin in a few minuets, now I have to go clean up!" I snapped stomping away.

I raced upstairs and hopped into he shower really quickly and then I searched my room for a dress to wear, I didn't want anything too flashy or revealing nor did I want to wear anything too casual and plain. I needed a stylish, fashionable, yet everyday dress for this date, I didn't know where he was taking me but I just wanted to look decent for whatever we did.

"I better hurry he'll be here soon" I race upstairs to clean off.

...

Meanwhile outside the gate walked in Benzin and walking with him a bouquet of roses, to give to his beloved Vanessa. He looked around the garden and saw his best mate walk by.

"Jr. mate what's the haps?" He said with a smile.

"Benzin good to see you. Nice roses" Jr. mocked.

Benzin rolled his eyes "They're for your sister during our date, where is she?" He asked

"In her room" Jr. says.

"Thanks mate see you around" Benzin said walking along.

He walked up to the greenhouse and knocked on the door as Juliet opened up for him. "Benzin what a surprise" Juliet smiled.

"Hey Juliet looking very stunning today" Benzin chuckled, he liked Juliet because she was cool with him dating her daughter, Unlike Gnomeo. "A rose for you Madame" He said offering Juliet one of the dozens of roses he had.

"Why thank you, Vanessa has herself quite a gentlemen" She snickered

"Thank you"

"Vanessa's up in her room if you want to go see her" She said pointing I smiled and raced upstairs but was stopped when Gnomeo came walking down.

"Benzin what are you doing here?" Gnomeo asked narrowing his face a bit.

Benzin gulped a little "Just going to see your daughter sir" He said trying to get past him.

"Yes and Gnomeo you can help me in the garden" Juliet said tugging at his arm. Gnomeo Gave Benzin that 'I'm watching you' look before following Juliet, Benzin gulped, he never understood what Gnomeo's problem was with him I mean His father and Gnomeo were best friends, you'd think he'd like the son of his best friend. But pushing that aside he carried on upstairs...

Vanessa pov

I was standing in my room dressed only in my underwear and bra trying to decide between 2 dresses to put on, I just couldn't decide right away but I gave it some time and I picked the purple one with the black stripes. Just as I put it on...

"Vanessa!" I heard the door fling open and Benzin just barged in. "Are you ready for our...AAHH!" He screamed seeing me half naked.

"AAHH! BENZIN!" I screamed covering myself.

"Oh God I'm so sorry" He said covering his eyes.

"You ever heard of knocking?" I snapped still covering myself.

"Sorry I didn't expect you to be under dressed" He said closing the door and walking inside.

I got confused. "Don't come in leave, I'm in my underclothes here!" I said with anger.

Benzin chuckled "What? I've seen you in your underclothes all the time when we go swimming, why should now be any different" He said coming closer to me. I covered myself more because I was still uncomfortable.

"Besides..." He said wrapping his hands to my body as I shivered at his touch "You look cute this way" He smirked.

"Why thank you" I smiled wrapping to his neck and bringing my face closer so that was touching his nose. "Your breath feels warm" I tell him

"Yours smells like cinnamon" He said leaning closer to he as I giggled even more. He looked at me with a smirk "I wonder if it tastes the same way" and then he just kissed me hard and tightly wrapped to my waist. I was shocked at first but then I kissed him back wrapping to his neck.

I pulled his head farther over his body as I leaned back even farther. I lost my balance and then we just fell over on my bed with him crushing me. "Oops sorry" I said blushing.

"Don't be, this is much better" He winked at me and I giggled. I smiled as we started kissing again He felt so warm against my half covered body, but I wasn't complaining.

He moved down from my lips to the side of my shoulder and then my neck "Benzin that tickles" I laughed moving around.

"Wow is that perfume you're wearing?" He asked sniffing me now.

I laughed from the touch "No! It's my natural body scent" I said.

"Well it's such a heavenly smell, and your my heavenly angel" He whispers to me. His words were so sweet there was nothing bad about them and no denying how in love I was with him.

As flattering as this was I was still under dressed with a boy in my room "Benzin I really have to put on my clothes now" I said pushing off him.

He grabbed on me closer "Just can I kiss you a few more seconds?" He begged looking at my lips.

I smiled "I guess you can" I said not wanting to let go of the kissing either. He wrapped around my bare back and I clung to his, Suddenly I found myself crawling onto his lap and wrapping my legs to his waste and at the same moment Benzin was making his way down from my lips to my neck and I was grasping him tighter trying to feel the pleasure. I moaned happily as he kept kissing my neck and tickling me a little I just wanted him with me like this for always. He ran his hands up and down my back making me flinch but at the same time enjoy it all. Then he grabbed my lower backside and I opened my eyes

"Whoa take it easy Benzin I'm only 15 remember"

He moved his hands off me "Believe me, my parents would kill me if I tried anything on you!"

I snickered and cupped his face bringing it closer to me "It doesn't count if it's just kissing!" I flirt looking at his lips again.

I pulled him back to my lips to feel his kisses and then just like that I felt backwards in bed taking him with me, Now he was on top of me and we had no clue, to distracted by the make out session to pay attention. He wrapped around my body again his hands were cold but the 2 of our bodies together made everything feel warm.

"Vanessa me and your mum need you too..."

"Aaaahhh!" Me and Benzin screamed when someone walked in on us, and because I was half nude, that someone was the last person I wanted to walk in on us.

"VANESSA!" Dad screamed at the top of his voice.

"DAD!" I cried jumping up in bed and Benzin did the same.

"Gnomeo, sir" Benzin said nervously. He jumped right off of me and then stood away from the bed as I just sat in bed covering myself with my blanket.

"Vanessa what the hell is going on in here?!" He snapped getting a bit red in the face

"Nothing daddy I swear" I said trying to tell him this was not what it looked like.

"Yeah Sir I can explain, see I was just..." But before that could happen My dad yanked Benzin out of my room by his shirt collar.

"Daddy, Daddy what are you doing?!" I shout at him. I throw on my dress and race after them just as dad dragged him down the stairs.

"I want you out of here and out of my daughters life for good!" I heard dad say to Benzin as he yanked him downstairs

"Daddy stop you don't understand what you're doing" I said running after them down the stairs. My dad finally let him go but he choked him a lot of the walk down so Benzin was coughing a lot.

I ran over to his side "Benzin are you okay?" I asked

"*Cough* I'm good just a sore in my neck is all" He said smiling, I smiled too knowing he was okay, but judging by the look on my dad's face he wasn't going to be Ok much longer.

"I am about to really hurt you right now" He warned him

I stood in his way, protecting my love "Daddy please!" I begged him.

He shoved me away a little "You're in deep trouble yourself young lady so don't make this any worse" He warned me.

"But you don't understand"

"Oh I do understand...I understand my daughter is a tramp!" He screamed in my face.

I gasped and then glared "How dare you? I am not!"

"Oh then what were you doing upstairs with him in your room?"

"He and I were just making out"

"In your bed? With you half naked?" He crossed his arms.

I got a little embarrassed by that now "Okay I know what you must've though we were doing but we didn't and we weren't going too"

"Yeah Gnomeo I was just..."

"I DON'T WANT TO HEAR IF FROM YOU!" Dad yelled as I backed away.

"Gnomeo what is going on in here?" Mum said coming in with all my siblings after hearing this whole argument "What is all the screaming about?"

"Juliet I have something to tell you, turns out our daughter here is a tramp!" Dad said my mum and my siblings gasped a little bit.

"I am not!" I screamed at him.

He glared at me "You better stop mouthing off to me" He gritted through his teeth.

"What are you talking about?" Mum said confused

"I found our daughter and Slick over here upstairs in her room, and Vanessa was stripped down to her underclothes and when I walked into her room to get her these 2 were snuggled in bed" He explained. I heard all my siblings gasped aloud

"Vanessa is that true?" Mum said with a shocked face.

"Yes!" I smiled nervously.

Mum gasped and then turned to a small glare "Vanessa what were you thinking?" She said snapping at me.

"No mum you don't understand, nothing happened it was just false perspectives" I tried to explain

"What we're you doing having him in there in the first place?" She went off again.

"He just walked in my room..." But then I was cut off

"...And he just stripped you down into your underclothes" Mum said glaring at Benzin now thinking this was all his fault

I stood in front to defend him "No! I was already like that when he walked in..."

"I had bad timing?" Benzin joked but this was not the time for that.

"And then we just started making out for a while and things got carried away" I said rubbing my next. My mum looked so disappointed in me and she looked ready to cry.

"But we weren't going to take it that far, honestly!"

"Yeah I'm too young for that sort of stuff anyway! I would never try to do that at such a young age with your daughter, my parents would murder me for that"

"Funny cause I'm thinking of murdering you right now too" Dad threatened.

"Why? I never touched your daughter anywhere I wasn't suppose to, I would never try to violate her in any way and what you saw up there wasn't it either!" Benzin explained.

"There you see that daddy, nothing happened" I said hoping that would cool his nerves a little

"Yeah but just to be sure of that" Dad yanked Benzin hard and threw him to the ground outside the greenhouse.

"BENZIN!" I screamed running towards him but my dad held me back

"I never want you near my daughter ever again!"

"No! daddy you can't do that!" I yelled.

He eyed me "I just did" He said to me.

I bury my face in mum's chest crying hard "It's okay Vanessa, It's going to be alright" Mum said to me.

"NO! IT'S NOT GONNA BE ALRIGHT!" I screamed running out over to Benzin's side. "Benzin please I don't want to be away from you, I love you!"

"I love you too Vanessa, but your dad obviously has his mind set on us"

"I don't care I need you, I don't want to let you go...AND DAD YOU CAN'T MAKE ME!" I snap at him.

"Vanessa don't make this worse for yourself"

"You're making this worse on your own"

"I'm just looking out for what is best for you"

"Benzin is what's best for me. Daddy I love him!"

"You're 15 you don't know anything about love"

"I know it when I feel it and I love him!"

He crossed his arms "And it's a shame you're never gonna see him again"

I glared harder "You can't keep me from him" I snapped hard.

He walked to me and I walked back in fear."If I see you anywhere near him again I'm gonna..." He raised his hand to hit me, but he wasn't going to with my mum watching and because he saw I was already in a lot of pain. I saw him let his hand down and take in a deep breath "Vanessa I know what's best for you, and he is not it" He said in a calmer tone.

But calm or not I was still mad "You don't know him like I do, and I don't care what you say you're not keeping me from him"

"YES I AM!" He said dragging me back to my mum.

"Daddy please!" I begged him but mum held me in her arms.

"Enough Vanessa! I never want to see you with him ever again!"

"But-But..." I said trying to fight back my tears.

"VANESSA THIS IS DONE WITH!" He raised at me.

I started to breath and pant super hard and then I just snapped in rage "I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU! I WISH YOU WEREN'T MY FATHER!"

"Right now I'm wishing you weren't my daughter either!" He said back to me.

I released myself from my mums grip and then I just ran away into the farthest part of the garden and into the bushes to where my secret door was hidden. I raced over to the oasis and scattered up the tree to the highest branch and cried long and hard. My heart was aching and my world was coming down around me. Nothing mattered to me anymore, what was the point of anything if I didn't have anyone to share it with anymore. The only guy I ever loved was taken away from me and no one would listen to what I had to say, I was about to lose my entire love life and there was nothing I could do.

"Why is my life so unfair, what did I do to deserve this?" I cried even harder, till my eyes burned.

"Vanessa!" I heard a voice that I thought was in my head and just went back to crying. Until I heard it again "Vanessa!" I hear that so familiar voice and then I look down from my tree to see Benzin walking around looking for me

"Benzin?!" I said looking down.

"Vanessa!" He asked again looking for me.

"Up here!" I said waving, he looked up and saw me smiling at him. He smiled too and climbed up to the branch I was resting on.

"I thought I might find you here" He said smiling. I smiled back at him and then looked away "Benzin I'm so sorry for my dad, he's not himself anymore" I said frowning hard and with sorrow.

"I can see that" He said letting me rest my head on his shoulders.

"He's just not the daddy I use to have growing up. It's like he's changed" I said covering my face in shame and sadness. Benzin put his hand on my shoulder and then handed me a tissue from nowhere. I blew my nose and just cried even more.

Benzin gently rested to me "What do you suppose your dad has against me anyway?" He asked me. "I mean I'm the son of his best friend, you'd think he'd like his best friends son"

That made me smile a bit and then frown "I don't know he's always had a problem with me dating" I sighed "He just doesn't understand how special you are to me" I start to rub my face in his chest.

He lifted my chin so I could see him better "You're more special to me" He said as he kissed my cheek.

"My dad will never let me be with you ever again" I frowned "I don't know what his deal is but he's not going to keep me from you

Benzin chuckled "I don't know he sounded very serious about that"

I glared "He might be my father, but he doesn't control me or who I put in my life. And you are a part of my life Benzin" I said holding his hand tightly. "I just don't want to let you go"

"And neither do I. But your dad won't let me around you for much longer"

"What if you and I never went back" I said thinking of something

"What?" He asked

"You and me could stay here and be together and my dad would never find us"

"Vanessa I don't think I can do that. I love you but I have a life back home and so do you, and what about our friends and family? I don't want to give that up" He aid being a bit more reasonable than I was being.

"True neither do I, but I don't want to lose the biggest part of my life either" I say softly.

"You won't I'll always be with you" He said touching my heart and I smiled.

"But my dad will never get off me about this and he might try and hurt you and I can't stand to be put through all that" I said.

"Well would it be better if we just broke up" He said.

I looked at him in shock "WHAT NO!" I screamed as loud as I could "Benzin I..." But he put a finger to his lips.

"It's okay Vanessa, I can see your dad has made his choice and because I care about you, and my health, I think it be better to just break up"

"But I don't want to break up" I cried.

"But you also don't want me to get hurt either right?"

"No I don't want either but if we don't break up you could get hurt but if we do I'll be hurt" I said crying. "I don't know what to do"

"Well, would it be easier if you broke up with me" He asked.

"What?" I asked confused.

"Why don't you just break up with me and then maybe your dad will loosen up, and then we can be together when he finally cools down"

"I don't want to break up with you!"

"Well it really wouldn't help if I break up with you!" He says. "Vanessa this is the only way your dad will let us be together, By not being together at all!"

"Benzin..."

He placed his hands to my lip and took both my hands "I know this is hard to accept not but, you and I will see each other again...I promise!" His eyes meant what he said, and my heart was telling me it was true, but in my head I knew what the real answer was.

I looked down "That won't be happening for a while thought will it?" I said softly

"You never know it could be sooner than you think"

"Not soon enough" I said looking at him with passion. He rested a hand to my cheek before he leaned in and Kissed me...for what may be the last time.

I know Kisses are suppose to be happy but mine kiss was sad because this might be the final time I ever got to feel the warm tenderness of his lips pressed against mine. I felt so much spark and passion released in that one single kiss, this was probably going to be the most romantic moment me and Benzin got to spend together before we went our separate ways.

"This may be the last in a long time we ever get to spend together" I said after the wonderful make out session

"Then let's not waste it" He whispered to me.

I held him tight to my grip "I never want to waste it. I want to savor every precious moment we still have together" I said leaning to his chest.

"Then do you think we could have one more swim together!" He asked looking to the pond right below us.

"Does this answer your question?" I said pushing him out of the tree as he feel right into the pond. He came back up and looked at me with a shocked face

"Hahaha, Got wet much?" I asked

I was dangling my feet over the tree branch and laughing "Very Funny. You coming in or what?"

I smiled and stood up in the tree "Cannonball!" I scream as I plummet right beside him in the water. I plop up right next to him and we begin to splash fight with each other. I had such an amazing time with him, the time we had now was precious to me I had to savor every last moment we had together.

"Benzin...I'm going to miss you so much. What you and I shared was something I will never let go of" I said crying.

"You will always be that one girl for me Vanessa, and I hate to let you go. But when it comes for your safety I will let you go, but just know no matter who else we meet I will always see your beautiful face in anyone" He kissed my head afterwards

"That's the most romantic thing I've ever heard" I said crying.

I gave him one final kiss as a tear rolled down my eye and then we just stuck noses together for a brief moment "I will always love you" I whisper to him.

"And I will always love you" He said holding me tighter to his body.

I looked over and reached for the door as we left my, no wait, our secret hideaway and we walked back into my garden. It was still early in the day and I couldn't really see much from where I was but I did hear a lot of commotion.

"VANESSA!" I hear my dad yell.

"Oh no My dad!" I raced to cover the entrance to my secret hideaway and Benzin help me put the leaves in place, and just in time too when my brother came walking up.

"Vanessa there you are" Jr. said smiling.

"Here I am!" I smiled acting casual.

"Benzin what are you still doing here?" Jr. said worried

"Oh I was just..." Benzin said but he was cut off.

"Listen mate your my best friend and I don't want to see you get hurt, so you better go before my dad finds you here..."

"Before I find who here?" I hear a voice as dad popped up behind him.

I frowned in disappointment and Benzin was a little startled in fear."Dad!" Me and Jr. said with smiles, even though I was still upset with him.

"Vanessa I have been looking all over for you" He said worried.

"And I was just...

"Benzin what are you doing here? and with my daughter? Didn't I make it clear that" Dad was about to go off

"Dad calm down he was just leaving" I say before things get out of hand

"Yes sir, I was just going I was just saying goodbye to your daughter...Farewell My little Nessie" Benzin hugged me and slowly moved away.

"Goodbye Benzin" I said as he walked away from me and out of my life.

"Vanessa I thought I made it perfectly clear when I said..." I cut him off before he went at me again for no good reason.

"Dad give it a rest, I broke up with him!" I announced.

"You did?" He asked

"Yes I had to you kept trying to tear him away from me and I wasn't going to let that happen. I broke up with him so he wouldn't have to deal with you again" I could see the confused look in his eyes but it was being overruled by the deep burning pain in my eyes. "Now I can just be alone and miserable for the rest of my life, Are you happy now daddy?" I cried running away from him up to my room.

I cried till my heart would exploded from over adrenaline and then I just painful passed away from a broken heart, literally. This was officially the worst day of my life I lost my boyfriend and the respect of my dad all in one hour. How could it get any more depressing or heartbreaking than that. I looked down at the silver locket dad had given me for my birthday I always kept it on, but since I was ad at him I yanked it off and tossed it to the floor.

I heard a knock at the door. "GO AWAY, LEAVE ME ALONE!" I screamed.

The door opens and my dad walks in with a small grin but I just frowned "It's me baby, I came to talk to you" He said taking a seat at the bottom of my bed I just quickly turned away from him.

"I just don't understand why you have such a problem with me dating guys" I say.

"That's it! That's it baby girl right there, you don't understand" Dad said patting my back. "I know how you must be feeling, upset and angry with me. Just like how it went with me and your mother, you see a pretty face come into your life and then the next thing you know your married, not that she had a choice I am quite a catch"

I eyed him "That's nice for you daddy but what does that have to do with me?"

he huffed and walked to me and laid my head on his shoulders and rubbed me "Vanessa you've grown up so much in the last 15 years, why I remember when you were still my cute playful little girl and now you're blossoming into a beautiful young lady. And I know you reach that certain age where you want to be out and do things on your own but, Vanessa I just care about you too much to let anything happen to you" He said.

I still looked away from him and said "Daddy I know I might not be like the others, as strong or brave or tough, and it's not that I don't like you watching over me but, when it comes to me meeting new boys you tend to get...Well you're not yourself"

"I do!"

"I mean whenever I get near a boy you just have this sudden notion to scoop me away from him and embarrass me"

"That's just being a good father, Boys aren't always as they seem"

"How would you know that?"

"I'm a guy I speak from their point of view" He said making me start to smile.

Me and dad laughed a little "That's what you get for not trusting me" I said grinning.

Dad smiled as well "Oh Vanessa I trust you because me and your mum raised you right. It's boys I don't trust because I didn't raise them and I just want to make sure you know what your doing when it comes to dating"

"Daddy I know you just want to protect me but, you don't have to protect me Benzin. Yes he's a guy but he's not like other guys, he's sweet, charming, funny, cool, smart, brave...actually he reminds me a lot of you daddy" I admit.

"He does?"

I nod "Yes because you and him have one thing in common"

"What's that?"

I take daddy's arm "You both have me!" I leaned on his shoulders as he wrapped an arm to me "Daddy I know you worry because you love me but, you can trust me to know the difference between right and wrong"

"I know I can, it's just the part of me that has to worry about my family that gets to me!"

"And we all love for being the type of father you are..."

He but in "And just what type is that?" He eyed playfully.

"The providing yet overprotective type!" I laughed and he rolled his eyes.

I leaded closer on his shoulders and continued "But in the future could you try to be a little less on our cases about everything, including our relationships" I gave him the puppy eyes.

He gave me a hug "We'll see. I'm glad we had this talk sweetie"

I nod my head "I love you daddy!"

"I love you too Nessie" He said kissing my forehead.

"So I can go out with Benzin again?" I said hopefully

He turned back to me with a smirk "I'll think about it"

"I'm not hearing a 'no'" I said smiling.

"I'm not saying a 'yes'...yet" He laughed and left me alone to laugh too.

"Daddy!" I whined

He let out a laugh "Ok I'll tell you my answer tomorrow" He said walking to the door.

"Ok that's fair!" I smiled as he turned to the door and back

"Oh and by the way you're grounded for tonight"

"Ok that's not fair" I argue

"Nope, that's life, see you later baby girl...I mean young lady!" He closed the door. I rolled my eyed with a smile, Dad always knew just what to say. Before I rested I picked up my locket off the gerund and placed it back around my neck, It was always good to know my dad would be right there when I needed him, and also when I didn't need him too.

Next day...

I walked into the Garden with everyone early one morning after spending so much time in my room from yesterday. "Hey Vanessa how are you feeling today?" Mum said giving me a hug.

I nuzzled into her chest and smiled "Better, I'm still upset but I'm better now"

She lifts my chin "So you and your dad worked things out?"

"Yes! yes we did" I grinned.

"Morning to my 2 favorite girls!" I ear Dad's voice and turn to se him there

"Morning Daddy" I raced into his arms.

"Feeling better?"

I nod "After that talk I am" I said hugging him.

That's when I heard a knock at the door "I got it!" I said racing to the gate to open it, I was surprised when I saw who was behind it "Benzin!?" I said I shock and fear.

"Hey Vanessa may I come in?" He said, I let him in but I was worried.

"Benzin what are you doing here?"

"I came to see you" He smiled

"No! Benzin you have to get out of here if my dad sees you he's going to" I shoved him, but he stopped me.

"Actually your dad asked me to come here" He said,

I froze in place for a moment what he said "My dad? He wouldn't-" I said but was cut off

"But I kinda would" I hear my dad say as he walks up over to us. "Nice to see you again Benzin"

"You too sir, I hope" Benzin gulped

I looked back and forth between them "Dad what's this all about?" I asked.

"Vanessa after our talk yesterday I realized that you were right. I was being a bit over reactive but that's only because I was worried about you. But I realized that you're growing up and I have to let you live your own life..." He paused then looked at Benzin a while "And chose who you want to date"

"Wait so you're saying I can date your daughter again?" Benzin hopped.

Dad smiled "Yes you can"

I was so overjoyed I leaped into his arms "Thank you daddy I love you" I gave him a kiss on the cheek.

He gripped me tighter and smiled "My pleasure, you kids have fun. And Benzin take care of my daughter" Dad said winking.

"I will Gnomeo, thanks!" Benzin said and then he came and gave me a surprise kiss. "So I guess your my girlfriend again" He said winking at me

I giggled "And you're my boyfriend" I said sweetly as we kissed once more.

"I think this calls for a celebration, you up for a little alone time?" Benzin asked tickling me under my chin.

I smirked at him "Depends where will said alone time take place?" I said flashing my eyes at him.

He smirked back "You know! Your secret hideaway" He whispered to me as I giggled.

"No Benzin, Our secret hideaway" I said as we kissed again.

We chuckled and laughed all the way to our secret hideaway and then we climbed up the tree to the largest branch where we spread out in each others arms.

"I'm so glad everything worked out with me and your dad. I thought I'd go insane without you"

"I know it was torture but at least we can be together now" I said kissing him.

He looked at me and snickered "You want to know the dream I had last night" He asked and I lean to him all ears "Well we were in this exact spot and I was holding you in my arms and all of a sudden I began to sing to you this song that I always keep hearing in my head"

"A song?"

"It kind of expresses all my feelings for you" He blushed looking away from me.

I got a lot closer so our hips were pressed together "I'd love to hear it!"

"But I can't sing!"

"Please, I bet you can sing?"

He shifted his eyes and shrugged "A tiny, tiny bit!" He did that finger gesture to show it.

"Sing for me, just this once" I said leaning on his chest.

He lifted my chin and went in for a kiss and then began to hum the tune of the music.

I need you boo, (oh)

He spun me all around the big tree and down by the pond where all the water flowers floated by. He picked a bright purple one up and placed it in my hair and twirled me around again.

Oh girl!

He nuzzled our noses singing that last part to me, I knew that was so very true.

I need you boo,
I gotta see you boo
And the heart's all over the world tonight,
Said the heart's all over the world tonight

Woo oh yeah

They need it boo,
They gotta see their boo,
Said the heart's all over the world tonight,
Heart's all over the world tonight

Oh! I'm into you,
And girl,
No one else would do. '
Cause with every kiss and every hug

You make me fall in love.
And now I know
I can't be the only one,

I bet there heart's all over the world tonight,
With the love of their life who feels
What I feel when I'm...

With you [x5]
Girl.
With you [x5]
Oh.

Hey yea...

He finished the last verse and I felt tears running down my cheek and my mouth was covered in happiness and joy. that was the sweetest thing I had ever heard from him and he was actually a decent singer as well.

I practically threw myself at him and kissed him hard and long "I love you Benzin I love you so much right now" I cried gripping him to me.

"So I take it you enjoyed the song then?" He smiled with me

"Oh yes I did, it was beautiful" I cried

"It's not my song but it's just how I feel about you"

"That's so sweet...And I should tell you that I have a song that makes me thing about you too" I blushed

"I'd like to hear you sing it" He said looking in my eyes.

"No you wouldn't"

He crossed his arms "C'mon if I can sing to you and do a half decent job you can do it too and be better"

I shake my head at him "I'm not a good singer" I started pulling on my hair a bit.

"I doubt that...Please let me hear it" He said sweetly.

I smiled and stood up straight "Alright if you're sure" I cleared my throat and began to sing.

I still hear your voice, when you sleep next to me.
I still feel your touch in my dreams (my dreams)
Forgive me my weakness, but I don't know why
Without you it's hard to survive.

Cause everytime we touch, I get this feeling.
And everytime we kiss I swear I could fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last.
Need you by my side.
'Cause everytime we touch

Yeah, yeah Mc OZ
Yea Cash Cash
Yeah, uh what

Cause everytime we touch,
You light me up like Los angeles
Girl, the Hollywood lights can't handle this

Hold on, tell my momma this chick is my future miss
I never knew a chick like this before
And momma I can't ignore
It doesn't take a genius to feel it this time
But if it does, you can call me Einstein

After feeling this much, I'm down for a game of two hand touch
What you feel it two? I feel it three.
Four on the floor, who's next, me?
That's right a round of applause

Mc OZ, came with a cause, but it's never enough
Everytime we touch

Cause everytime we touch, I get this feeling.
And everytime we kiss I swear I could fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last.
Need you by my side.
Cause everytime we touch, I feel the static.

And everytime we kiss, I reach for the sky.
Can't you hear my heart beat slow,
I can't let you go.
Want you in my life.

'Cause everytime we touch, I get this feeling.
And everytime we kiss I swear I could fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last.
Need you by my side. (2x)

Forgive me my weakness, but I don't know why
Without you it's hard to survive.

Cause everytime we touch, I get this feeling.
And everytime we kiss I swear I could fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last.
Need you by my side.

Cause everytime we touch, I feel the static.
And everytime we kiss, I reach for the sky.
Can't you hear my heart beat slow,
I can't let you go.
Want you in my life.

I finished the song and looked over at him. He had the most surprised face on him I had ever seen.

"Benzin?" I snapped my fingers at him and he snapped back. I nervously looked and brushed my hair back "Did you like the song?" I asked weakly.

He suddenly grasp me in his grip "I never knew you had the voice of an angel" He said taking my hands and kissing me.

"Thanks No one's ever said that about me before" I grinned.

"They should because you are" He said getting closer to me. We brushed our cheeks together his were a bit cool and mine were warm, together they made the perfect blend.

He left my side for a second, reached down into his backpack and pulled out a long rolled up sheet of paper and gave it to me "For you" He said with a bow, like I was royalty.

I took it from him with a snicker "What is it?"

"Open it and see"

I unraveled the paper and gasped. It was a beautiful extremely well drawn, realistic picture of me and him, He was holding me bride style and I was holding a large lily pad flower cupped in my hands. We were surrounded in a large bright red heart with white wedding bells over it and tiny little fireflies fluttering about, the background showed that we were under the fruit tree in our secret hideaway place.

For the girl who sets my heart/soul on fire xoxoxo- Benzin x Vanessa forever

I was at a loss for words looking at this "Benzin...I don't know what to say, I love it!" I said crying.

"I was going to get you a real present but I just though you'd like this better"

"A gift from you doesn't have to be flashy I love this because you made it for me...I just wish I had something to give you"

"You can give me this!" He turned me around and planted yet another kiss on me.

We walked back to the garden and into the greenhouse. I walked into the kitchen and made us a strawberry smoothie that we shared together. "You make good smoothies" He said slurping it all down.

"I know me and London make them all the time" I said.

Just then someone walked inside and my dad's face lit up when he saw me "Hey look at you 2 lovebirds" He said joking.

"Hey Daddy!" I said running to his embrace.

"Have you 2 been in here all day?"

"No, we just came here to get a snack"

"Oh well you 2 have fun" He turned away and walked out.

"Wow he didn't give me a bad look that time" Benzin smiled

"Because he's finally cool with us dating now" I said taking his hand in mine.

"It's a good thing too otherwise I couldn't do this!" He pulled me to him and gave me the biggest kiss of all I giggled and kissed him back too

He pulls away from me and gave me a serious look "Nessie?"

"Yeah?"

"You know I'd never try to...you know...violate you don't you"

"I know you wouldn't do that to me"

"Unless you were ready"

"I know" He smiled at me "But I'm not ready"

"I know me neither" He says we both laugh and Kiss once more, by the love we both shared for each other.
