Whooo, another chapter for "TOS"! Soo Bethan kind of broke up in the last chapter :( but no worries! I shall make everything sort of work out for them in this chapter - as TEM said before in the last chapter. Don't kill me or her or the both of us, because you guys won't find out what happens in my chapter which will be good! It's a warning. This is sort of like a second chapter to the last chapter, or something like that, I really wouldn't count it as that, the chapters that are going to be like two parter chapters or something like that is - the before battle chapter, and the battle chapter, just probably won't really count as a two parter chapter, um... it's up to TEM and I to see who gets to write the before battle chapter and the battle chapter... but first we gotta get through the truth coming out between Benny and Ethan!
So any other questions will be answered by me and TEM, if you guys have any questions about the story, you can PM me and/or TEM about it and we'll answer the question as best as we can! And if you don't have an account... we'll still answer your question.
Anywho, I should shut up and let you all read my chapter.
So, let's begin.
Enjoy!
The next day, Ethan found himself staring at himself in the mirror. It felt like a huge weight had been lifted off of his shoulders, but all that was left behind was guilt and heartbreak. He had to get it off of his chest. If not it'd have been more of a betrayal to Benny if he saw Ethan on the battle field on Jesse's side.
He knew telling Benny was the right thing to do. He knew the trust between them would be broken. What they had and were going to have would be gone, and they would be enemies.
Just like it always has been, way before they even knew each other.
Ethan didn't want it to be that way though. He wanted to be Benny's boyfriend, to kiss each other in front of people, to be able to hold each other's hands.
But it was probably never going to happen. After Ethan told Benny the truth, that he was on Jesse's side, that he was the seer and Jesse's weapon. The one to destroy Anastasia's side, to lead the town back to its old days before the Vampire Council ruled Whitechapel.
In the progress of doing that, Ethan had destroyed everything between him and Benny.
Ethan sighed out. He really needed to stop thinking about this. What's done is done. He and Benny were no more. They were now official enemies.
"Ethan! Breakfast is ready!" Samantha's voice shouted from downstairs, breaking Ethan away from his thoughts.
Ethan took one last look at himself in the mirror. "Let's just get through the day, Ethan."
And with that, he walked out of the bathroom.
As for Benny, he felt like complete shit. He probably looked like shit too since he couldn't sleep. He had too much on his mind. He tried to stop thinking, but he had no luck there. Damn Rory made it seem so easy.
The reason why he couldn't sleep? Ethan. No matter how much he tried not to think about Ethan, but he just couldn't stop. Every time Benny closed his eyes there was Ethan smiling right at him.
Benny knew that feelings weren't supposed to go away over night, but he wished that his feelings for Ethan would. He wanted nothing to do with him, but his heart wasn't having any of it. His heart wanted Ethan. It wanted him to stick by Ethan's side.
No, he couldn't do that. He made it perfectly clear. He wanted nothing to do with Ethan. Right now all he wanted to do was push aside those feelings and of course get through the freaking day.
But right now, he was worried about the private meeting between him, his grandma and Anastasia.
He felt like he was just giving Ethan up to a pack of hungry vampires - which he really was. But Anastasia had to know about Ethan being the seer and Jesse's weapon. He was using the information for his side and now they would be one step ahead of Jesse.
Evelyn and Benny entered the Vampire Council chamber where the room was darkly lit as it normally was. And only Anastasia and the other Council members were in the room.
"Evelyn," Anastasia began, looking at the old woman and her grandson. "You told me that you have come across the identity of the seer."
She nodded her head. "Yes, and this is why I requested the important private meeting."
"Then please state the identity of the seer and how you came across the information," she said, waving her hand out in front of her.
"Benny," Evelyn patted his back, silently telling him to step forwards and tell Anastasia and the others.
Benny took a deep breath, closing his eyes as he stepped forwards.
"Well? We're waiting," Anastasia reminded him.
He opened his eyes and looked at the council. "I came across the identity of the seer because the seer was sent into mine and Rory's lives to spy on us. The seer managed to keep his powers hidden from me and Rory. He only got closer when I began to let him into my life more, and it was a huge mistake in doing so. He managed to get a hold of the spell. He had my grandmother, Rory and I all fooled into thinking he was a normal teenager. He admitted everything to me, he admitted that he had stolen the spell, he admitted that he was the seer, and he admitted to being Jesse's weapon."
"Who is he? What is the name of the seer? Tell me now." Anastasia's deepened voice demanded.
"The seer's name is... Ethan Morgan," Benny answered, making Anastasia and the other members stare at each other. If they just heard that right, Benny had said that Ethan's last name was Morgan.
The only people they knew with that last name were allies for Jesse ever since the beginning. They believed he was working for the greater good, but in reality he wasn't. He was evil.
"I should've known the Morgan's would be in this battle," she mumbled, rubbing her forehead forgetting that Evelyn and Benny were there.
"The Morgan's? Are you talking about the Morgan family of powerful seers?" Evelyn questioned.
"What does Ethan have to do with them?" Benny added.
"The Morgan family is a very important ally with Jesse, always have been and always will be. He's trained them from the very beginning. The Morgans are seers and very powerful ones, the council and I have a very strong feeling that Ethan is one of the offspring to two very powerful seers." Anastasia explained.
"But Ethan couldn't be a part of the Morgan family. Morgan is a very common name," Mrs. Weir stated, the vampire child rolled her eyes and sighed.
Benny stayed silent, thinking over what Ethan had told him. He told him that his parents were allies with Jesse, and asked the vampire to train him, everything Ethan had admitted to him. And then it all clicked into place.
"Ethan is a part of the Morgan family. He told me that. His parents asked Jesse to train him, and he agreed because he knew Ethan was a powerful seer. Ethan said he found out that his parents were allies with Jesse. He's a Morgan. I'm sure of it," Benny conformed.
Anastasia nodded. "I thank you both for this information. I'll call in a council meeting for after school day to inform everyone that we now know the identity of the seer."
She waved them off. Benny and Evelyn turned around and walked out of the Vampire Council's chambers. Evelyn sent Benny on his way to school while she went back home to think of another plan to use in the battle.
On his way to school, Benny only had one thing on his mind. He needed to talk to Ethan and now.
Ethan stood at his locker with Arthur by his side. Now that Benny knew the truth about him, he could go back to hanging out with his "friends". He was doing that right now, but he didn't want to hang out with his friends. He wanted to hang out with Benny and Rory. He'd thrown that out the window. Now he was even wishing that he wasn't on Jesse's side.
Thanks to Benny, he had gone soft. As much as he hated to admit it that, he had gone soft. All because of a goofy spellmaster.
"Ethan," Arthur said, snapping his fingers in front of Ethan's face, making the seer shake his head and look over at the werewolf.
He had already told Arthur and his other friends about how he was no longer spying on Benny and Rory anymore, and of course they were happy to have their friend back. They did notice that Ethan would act strangely whenever someone from Anastasia's side would look at him or someone would open the door to a classroom and he'd perk up only to see it wasn't the someone he was excepting to see.
They thought he was just acting weirdly because he was afraid of somebody from Anastasia's side trying to hurt him.
But they didn't know that Ethan was going through a harsh betrayal sort of break-up with Benny.
"What Arthur?" he asked harshly, taking out a book and putting it into his backpack.
"Dude, you were tuning out again. Are you really taking this whole thing hard?"
Ethan glared at him. Of course he was taking this whole thing hard! He basically lost the person he was slowly falling in love with, but Arthur didn't need to know that part. Because then he'd go back and tell Jesse about his perfect 'weapon' being depressed. Jesse wouldn't have any of it. He needed his weapon to be perfect, fearless and not the depressed, weak, bullied nerd with no friends like he used to be when he was younger.
"Arthur, you wouldn't understand what I am going through right now," Ethan stated, closing his locker.
Arthur just stared at him as Ethan walked off to his next class.
He needed to talk to Jesse about Ethan.
Benny entered WC High with a look of determination on his face. He was going to find Ethan and talk to him. About all of this. It was probably the best thing to do now since he wasn't as pissed as he was last night. He had been betrayed. Who wouldn't act like that if they had been betrayed by someone they liked? No, loved.
He didn't want to admit that he was starting to fall in love with Ethan like the seer, Ethan, told him. He'd find that person he'd love. He just hated that it was Ethan. His enemy.
Then he spotted Ethan walking towards one of his classes. Benny bit on his bottom lip and he sped his pace. He took Ethan by his arm and started walking along with him as they passed a few of Jesse's allies leaning against some of the lockers, watching them.
"You and I need to talk right now," Benny whispered very lowly - that way they couldn't hear him.
Ethan nodded his head, silently agreeing. For him it was best not to talk right now. He was saving the questions for when they were out of school. He sent a reassuring smile to the werewolves that were watching them closely.
Thank god, that it was still early in the morning and morning classes didn't start until like ten minutes passed.
They exited the school, through one of the doors and headed to Benny's car. Ethan was nervous, he had been getting nervous a lot lately, thanks to Benny turning him soft.
Benny got into the driver's side of his car while Ethan got into the other side, and closed the door. They both stayed quiet while they were both thinking things over. Benny rested his hands on the steering wheel, waiting for something to come out of his mouth or even Ethan's mouth.
"Did you tell your grandmother?" Ethan asked, breaking the silence between them. Benny nodded, looking ahead of him.
"Yes, I did," he answered.
Ethan sighed. "You didn't tell anyone else... did you?" Benny stayed silent, not answering Ethan's question. And he was slowly starting to get angry. If Benny told Anastasia and Anastasia told all of her little members, then Jesse would find out, get pissed off, yell, scream, shout at everyone and up his training even more. "Did you?!"
Benny looked over at him. "Yes. Yes, I did. My grandma and I told Anastasia everything."
"You told her everything? You told her who I was?! Why - How could you?!" he shouted, Ethan was angry and hurt. Now he knew how Benny felt last night.
"Ethan, please. Just don't -" Benny began to say, before Ethan punched his arm making him yelp and grab it in pain. Damn Ethan had a hell of a punch.
"I should've know you would tell Anastasia and the council everything about me. It's your way at getting back at me. I figured you would, you'd take any chance just to rat me out to the council!"
"Ethan, just let me talk-"
He scoffed. "What else did you tell them? How good did I treated you? How good we made out? Since you told them everything, they pretty much know about the relationship we almost had together."
"Ethan! Stop it! That's enough! I didn't tell Anastasia about you and me. I didn't tell them shit about it. You aren't letting me finish!" Benny said.
"Yeah, right." Ethan rolled his eyes.
"You don't believe me?"
"Why should I? I mean we both lied to each other. I shouldn't believe a word that comes out of that big mouth of yours."
Benny turned to him, his face beginning to turn red. "My big mouth? You got a lot of room to talk."
"You have done nothing but lie to me."
"I lied to keep you safe! Unlike you, who lies because he's trying to destroy any chance Anastasia and her side has so an evil-insane vampire can take over the town!"
"Jesse is not an evil-insane vampire trying to take over the town!" Ethan denied. He shouldn't be saying this. After all he knew it was true. Jesse was an evil-insane vampire.
"Now, look at who's lying." Benny chuckled.
Ethan glared at him. "Screw you."
"Look, I was trying to be nice to you! But then you just had to go be all mean and shitty towards me. You know? What I'm glad that I told Anastasia. Maybe she can screw up Jesse's plans."
"You son of a bitc-"
"Don't you finish that. If you say that, I promise you won't make it back to Jesse's in one piece," Benny growled, Ethan raised an eyebrow.
"Is that a threat?"
"Unless you want it to be, then I suggest you shut your mouth."
"You can't make me do shit Weir." he smirked.
Benny growled, and took Ethan by his shirt. "You shut up. Now."
"It's not going to happen by a long shot Benny," Ethan told him.
Then, they started shouting at each other. Some of the words they were saying to each other they knew that they were going to regret them later.
"I hate you!" Ethan screamed punching, Benny's shoulder, making him whine and grab onto Ethan's shirt again.
"Well, I hate you more!" Benny screamed back, they stared at each other for a second. They saw the pained looks on each other's faces, then they felt guilty knowing that they both caused that pain. Then there was a sudden urge to kiss each other, before Benny jerked Ethan towards him, capturing his lips in a heated passionate kiss.
Ethan curled his hands into fists around Benny's jacket, pulling him closer to him. If that was even possible because they were already so close together.
Benny nipped at his bottom lip, making Ethan moan and open his mouth. Benny took this as his chance and shoved his tongue into Ethan's mouth. They let their tongues wrestle together. This was different then their other kisses that were sweet and passionate, but this kiss was a heated, passionate kiss.
"Benny..." Ethan moaned as Benny moved down to his neck and sucked lightly on Ethan's neck. In his lust-filled mind, he wasn't thinking about what was going to be left behind there. He slowly moved his way back up to Ethan's lips, giving him a lustful kiss.
Suddenly, both of them remembered what they were doing before they started making out with each other.
"Oh shit!" Benny and Ethan exclaimed, breaking away from each other. They looked away from each other, breathing heavily.
Benny looked over at Ethan, before speaking. "Ethan, this never happened."
Ethan bit his lip and looked down at his hands. "This never happened..."
He watched as Ethan grabbed his backpack, and exited his car, he sighed and banged his head against the steering wheel, while Ethan was touching his lips, before sighing out.
Well that just happened, they thought at the same time.
Whoo, another chapter done! I hope that was good, see? I told you I would make it good for them! Just they agreed that it never happened. We know they can't go on without each other. Don't worry about Ethan, he'll start trying to gain Benny's trust back, while in the progress trying to gain Anastasia's trust as well. There's also a hint in this chapter. If you get it, TEM and I'll give you an internet cookie.
So, I will leave the next chapter to TEM, while I write out my Christmas one-shot and chapter for INANL and DWS!
Maybe I should, stop talking now, TEM's chapter is coming soon! I hope you all enjoyed this chapter! :)
Until next time...
