I do not own MBAV or any of their charters. I haven't gotten many reviews so I worry that I'm not doing a good job. Please review and I hope you enjoy, things are about to get interesting ;)
…Benny's house…
"Benny!" grandma screamed up the stairs. "Grandma its 7:00 on a Sunday" benny moaned walking down the stairs. He would have stayed in bed, but last time she turned him into a bug. "You didn't clean up your potion. It smalls horrible down here" the old woman complained, glaring at her grandson. Still half asleep, Benny sat down on the armchair. "Sorry grandma I'll do it later." Sitting across from the sleepy boy, she stared intently at him. "Grandma what are you doing your freaking me out" benny grumbled. "What did you discover" she asked? "Huh?" Benny gave her a confused look. After a few moments of contemplation realization dawned on him. "It's personal" He told her. "It had to be important for you to attempt such a difficult potion." Benny looked up at the ceiling before finally opening his mouth. "I think I'm in love with Ethan. It surprised the spell master that he had told Grandma that. "Why did I tell you that" he moaned. "I already knew" that she chuckled. "What" Benny exclaimed, now fully awake. "I'm surprised you needed a potion to realize that. It was clear as day. If it makes you feel any better I think the feeling's mutual." a range of emotions played across his face, surprise, fear, sadness and hope. "I don't think so benny replied frowning once again. "He's straight and even if he wasn't he won't even tell me what's wrong." "Let him tell you in time. The poor boy is in a dark place." She patted the young spell master on the shoulder and left him to his thoughts. Benny stood. "I'm done waiting" he said before rushing out of the house.
…Ethan's house…
The two vampires lay on Ethan's bed. Ethan was curled up into Sarah sleeping peacefully. "Oh Ethan" Sarah whispered watching him sleep. Her eyes were wet from crying with him. Sarah was feeling guilty. Her first reaction had been anger. She had given up her humanity to save Ethan and now it felt like it was worth nothing. But that had to be put in the back of her mind. Right now she had to comfort her friend and get him back on his feet. The door opened with a crash and Benny stood in the doorway watching his two friends cuddling with each other. Benny's mind blurred. His eyes began to fill with tears and all he could feel was the hole in his heart. Taking off down the stairs he was out of the house and into the street by the time Ethan could react. "What was that about" Sarah exclaimed, shocked and confused about what just happened. "Uggg Benny must be so angry" Ethan moaned. "I'm sure he thought I told you what was wrong and didn't go to him." "I need to get a move on" he said releasing his grip on Sarah and hopping out of bed. "I need to find benny. "Ethan you really need to drink before you go out. You are in no condition to be running around chasing after people. How much are you drinking" The teen asked. "I think I've had about a liter of blood since I was bitten. That was three days ago." Sarah grabbed her thermos from her bag and handed it to him. "You're not drinking enough. You need to be drinking two and a half water bottles a day." Gulping the entire thing down Ethan ran out of the house after benny.
…The Park…
Benny was sitting on the same swing his best friend had been sitting on not too long ago. Tears rolled down his cheeks as he silently cried. "Of course he likes Sarah" Benny thought to himself. "He doesn't need me. That's why he didn't want to tell me, he wanted Sarah's comfort not mine. And of all the times to fall in love with Ethan, it had to be when he just doesn't care anymore." A stick cracked nearby and benny heard footsteps on the woodchips. "Go play somewhere else" He screamed, not caring if he scared the kids. "It's me B" Ethan said resting his hand on Benny's shoulder. "Go away" The tall boy sniffled." Ethan released his hand and hesitated before sitting on the next swing. "Benny, I'm sorry" Ethan whispered. "I really want to tell you what's going on but I can't, not yet." Benny glared at the boy who had fallen in love with. "I don't care. Go back to your girlfriend. I don't matter to you anymore" Benny squeaked out between sobs. Ethan grabbed benny in a bear hug. "I do care about you B. You're my best friend. You're my brother. Those words stung even more than if Ethan had just walked away. Benny felt his entire being just drain out of him. He didn't even notice when the smaller boy went completely stiff. "Oh my God, what's that smell" Ethan thought. "It's benny's blood! I have to get away. But it smells so good." Ethan's vampire instincts fought with his conscience. Without really thinking the new fledgling brought out his fangs and slowly bent his head next to the human's neck. "Just go" Benny whispered snapping Ethan back to reality. "Just go" His friend whispered even softer. Rushing off, Benny ended up once again sitting alone. "Benny are you ok" asked a short blond haired girl rushing toward him? "I don't wanna talk about it" Benny sniffled, looking away from Tina. "You can tell me" she said lowering herself down to be eye level with the boy. Benny just looked into bright blue eyes, like looking into the ocean. "Ethan and I might not be friends anymore" Benny said calming down some. "What did he do" she asked, holding Benny's hand. "He's keeping a secret. Something's wrong and he won't tell me. I thought we were best friends." Pulling on Benny's hand Tina pulled him up. "Come on Benny lets go for a walk. It'll make you feel better." The two walked hand in hand out of the park.
...School the next day…
Tina led benny through the halls like a puppy. He was too depressed to argue, or even think of leaving. All he knew was that it felt nice for someone to be holding his hand, even if it wasn't Ethan. "Benny" Sarah called rushing over to the pair. "Umm hi Tina. Why are you and Benny holding hands?" She gave an odd look at her friend's empty stair. "I'm helping him through his problem. He needs a friend now that Ethan left him." "Ethan didn't leave him" Sarah said directing the comment at Benny. "He did" Tina responded. "He just threw him out like the trash. It was a horrible thing to do" she moved closer to benny. "I'd like to hear Benny's opinion on this" Sarah said. The sad boy just sniffled and looked down. "B isn't feeling like talking. He's just too sad right now" Tina replied, her hand now on Benny's waist." At Ethan's locker benny stared at the seer, eyes locked intently on the boy. "Ok what's up" Ethan sighed. I'm just thinking, now that you're a creature of the night we really should give you a makeover. Remember how evil Benny dressed. We need to get some of those cloths for you. "You know Ethan hit his head against the locker. "I'm the one that was spying on you" the blond vampire said proudly. "You were spying on me" Ethan said, trying to sound angry but just too depressed to really care. "Ethan, Benny's with Tina and their holding hands. She also called him B" She gasped out. "That's our thing" Ethan moaned. "He must be so mad at me. I don't think he even wants to be friends anymore" Ethan whispered the last few words. "Then tell him" Sarah shouted at him, causing a few glances from the other students. "But…" Ethan tried to say but was cut off. "Just tell him dude" Rory said. Ethan stayed silent for a few moments. "Ok I'm going to go tell him" He announced walking down the hall.
