The sun shined as the weekend started and signaled it was becoming afternoon.
Kevin's condo was devoid of noise except for the sounds of breathing and light snoring.
The lamp and alarm clock lay on the ground along with two cell phones in the sun.
The nightstand was on it's side four feet away from the bed and the sheets were tangled with both occupants.

Ben was lying on his side with his face in Kevin's chest with both of Kevin's arms wrapped around him.
A smile were on both of their faces as they rested from their night of 'catching up for 5 years!'
The creak of the letter slot on the door being opened as some letters and a thin package fell inside.
Kevin first woke up slowly as he blinked at the brightness in the room and then stared at the sleeping form of Ben.

Kevin carefully moved Ben so he wouldn't wake up and grabbed some clothes as he trudged towards the bathroom.
Kevin lifted the seat and sighed as he answered the call of nature and slowly waking up as he yawned.
Once he emptied his bladder, the toilet flushed and he washed his hands and then putting on a black t-shirt and some black shorts.
Soon loud knocking started him and Ben apparently as he called from the bedroom in a tired and annoyed voice.

" Who is that making all that noise Kevin?"

" Who ever they are, they're dead for disturbing our peace and quiet!"

" Can you do it quietly? My head hurts along with my back and eyes."

"Yea dear. Try not to move so much and last night was perfect."

" Yeah I know is was. I hope we can do it again as soon as my back stops hurting."

Kevin chuckled as he heard Ben groan while walking to get the door to see who it was.
As he opened it, it almost smacked him as Gwen barged in with her eyes glowing pink.
Albedo just walked in rubbing his head and neck as if he was yelled at for something.

" Where is Ben, Kevin? I know he's here with you, he never went home last night!"

" WILL you keep it down! Ben's asleep down the hall and doesn't feel very well. Wait how did you know he never came home?"

" I tried calling him yesterday to meet me and Julie, but he didn't answer his phone so I called his mom and she told me he was a 'date with Kevin?'!"

" I knew someone was following us! I saw you two on the Ferris wheel and I thought the message was pretty clear!"

" How did you see us and yet we didn't see you? Do you have any idea how long it took me to convince Ben to move on? He was almost ready to go out with Julie without being reminded of you and I know what you two did long ago!"

" For the record, Ben was never interested in Julie so why bother setting them up? Why do you care Ben's first time was with me? You didn't trust me at all when we met at the arcade!"

Albedo cleared his throat, hoping to prevent the argument from turning into a screaming contest.

" I know this isn't my business, but it seems Gwen is jealous that you and Ben are together. Also she feels it should have been her, you lost your virginity to and wants you for herself."

Gwen just froze while Kevin snorted at the idea, but then it did explain alot and why Ben was nervous.

" What are you doing here anyway Albedo? I mean I enjoy your company and all, but is there a reason?"

" Oh I can't find Lance anywhere. I tried calling his phone, but no answer and he didn't leave a note so I assumed he came here. You need a box to put your mail in otherwise it'll get foot prints."

Albedo placed the letters and package on the table and soon went to make some coffee for all of them.
Ben walked in the room with just a sheet wrapped around his body, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes.

" Is everything alright? I heard loud whispers and why is Gwen and Albedo here?"

Kevin stared at Ben and felt his lust rise just seeing Ben like this and the love bites on his neck.

" Ummm...Kevin your nose is bleeding?"

Kevin raised an eyebrow before touching his nose and warm dark blood covered two of his fingers.
He walked past Albedo and cleaned his nose free of blood and made sure it stopped.

" Pervert. Hey Ben I see you and Levin had some fun last night seeing you were on a date."

Albedo chuckled as Ben blushed and ran back to the room to change and Kevin glared at Albedo for making Ben put clothes on.

" If I wasn't so tired, I would beat you senseless! Oh a package for Ben and it's from Grandpa Max?"

Ben came back wearing the same clothes from last night and took the package curiously.

" Huh? That's weird it's addressed to come here, but how does my Grandpa know where you live?"

Kevin shrugged as Ben opened the envelope and it contained a hologram projector.
It made a series of beeps before an antenna came out and scanned Ben's face.

' Match confirmed Benjamin Kirby Tennyson.'

Soon the antenna spun around, scanning the room in a wave of blue light before it receded back inside.

' Room is secure for message. Message will commence in ten seconds.'

Soon a small hologram of Grandpa Max appeared as he began to talk.

" Hello Ben, I bet you're wondering why you are receiving this? Well it seems my suspicions were correct for someone is following not only me, but you and Kevin as well. There isn't much time, but I need you to find Gwen and don't worry I have the Omnitrix, it's perfectly safe."

The message ended leaving them confused and Ben sat down trying to take all this in.

" That can't be true, I have the omnitrix stored away, what is Grandpa trying to tell me?"

" So Grandpa isn't crazy after all. Someone is after him, but you and Kevin?"

Kevin sat next to Ben and rubbed his back, hoping to calm him down and Albedo sat near Gwen sipping his coffee.

" I knew something was missing on you Benji. How did you guys remove the watch?"

" It was very difficult, but the Omnitrix was removed. It was around the time me and Ben started school and when Grandpa started acting weird. Who could be behind all this?"

" I don't know, but I have a scary feeling it has to do with Lance. Ever since Max was released, he's been distant and doing late night activities."

" Is Grandpa telling me to put the watch back on? What should I do Kevin?"

Before Kevin could say anything, the condo began to shake violently making the four teens take cover.
Kevin grabbed Ben and hid under the table while Gwen and Albedo joined them as well.
A huge blast tore the living room open as a man and woman came in as if searching for someone.

" Kevin get Ben out of here quick! I'll try to hold them so you can get away!"

" No. Ben has to go and get the watch, I'll stay and fight!"

" Kevin NO! I lost you once before, I can't lose you again after all this please!"

Ben cried as he hugged Kevin tightly and Kevin felt his heart break at the sight.
He brought Ben to face him and wiped away the tears which stopped at the moment.

" You never lost me Ben. We will always be together, side by side, no matter what."

Kevin kissed Ben hard, not caring that they were under attack and then smiled as they both panted from the lack of air.
Ben felt his eyes become heavy and then passed out as a pink mana bubble enveloped him and it soon disappeared quickly.

" I used a sleeping spell and transported him home since he would have left peacefully."

" Ummm thanks Gwen now let's go help Albedo before they beat him badly."

Albedo was fighting the intruders while the trio were talking and was kicking ass.
Hours later Ben woke up in his room and wiped his face free of tears as he went into his closet.
He moved a box and lifted a floor plank to remove a small box and opened it to show the Ominitrix.
He gasped as he realized Gwen teleported him and someone else appeared before him.

" Hello Sweet one. Sorry to meet you under these circumstances"

Meanwhile we find Kevin, Albedo and Gwen in a huge laboratory locked inside a huge metal cage.
Kevin woke up first and looked around the area to find they were hidden somewhere.
Gwen and Albedo woke up trying to find something or a way out.

" There's nothing to pick the lock and were a good distance from grabbing anything useful."

Kevin stated before growling as someone walked into the room and he growled louder as he revealed himself as Dr. Farlo!

" Mr. Levin, welcome back home and it seems you brought some friends. Well this will make everything I've done worth while now won't it. I must warn all of you, this will be very painful, but you be unconscious before the extremely painful part begins."
