My longest chapter, and it took me a while to write, there is alot of stuff in here and we learn something about Rose. I really hope you all like it, I know I do. Please let me know what you think. Also there is a really long song scene in here in case you haven't noticed I like music.

Rose flopped down on her satin sheets and stretched just as she was getting comfortable, Benny took off in a full run at her and landed next to her causing her to come off the bed a bit. Rose quickly moved all the hair from her face "don't break my bed Weir" she laughed.

"Yeah that might be hard to explain to your mom" He smiled then Rose elbowed him in the ribs.

"Yeah right you geek, I'm your dreams"

"If you insist, only joking I learned from my mistake" Benny promised as Rose smiled again.

"So Benny, are you going to spend the night again?" Rose asked rolling onto her side so she could face Benny. Her pale skin looked extra pale which made her green eyes look even brighter. Benny had spent the last week at her house, they would stay up really late and play video games then fight over who would get more bed space. Nothing happened of course that's why Rose's mother didn't care if Benny spent the night. They would sleep in the same bed but that was it, they had gotten a lot closer since the whole near zombie experience.

Benny stretched and yawned looking out the window to see it was dark and the moon was almost at full height. "I should probably go home tonight" he sat up "Grandma is probably wondering if I completely moved in here."

Rose sat up and looked around, her room was a mess, and boys had that affect. Her room which was usually neat and tidy had Benny's clothes everywhere, there was even a pair of his underwear on her lamp. "I will wash your clothes and bring them over tomorrow" Rose pointed all around the room.

"Yeah sorry I trashed your room, at least you know what you are getting into before we get married" he threw an arm around her.

She twisted his arm and threw him on the bed "If you think that I would marry someone this messy you have another thing coming" and she stuck her tongue out at him. While a lot of things had changed one thing had not, Benny still hit on her every chance he got, though now it registered more as an ongoing joke.

Benny opened the bedroom door to leave, "oh yeah" he rummaged through his bag "I found this book in one of grandmas old chests. I figured you like books and it looks old, I'm not sure what it is about though" he finished throwing her the book.

"Thank you!" she was impressed that he remembered her love for old books; she waited to till her left and opened it. No wonder he didn't know what it was about it was entirely in Latin, good thing she read Latin. The book was a book of old fairy tales; she flipped through until she found her favourite, Sleeping Beauty.

The next morning

Benny woke up and they first thing he did, was the first thing he did every morning, he looked out his window to Rose's room. He didn't see her usually dancing around to her morning music, in fact he did not see her at all, maybe she went to school early. He got ready and got to school quicker than normal, when he got there he walked over to her locker but she wasn't there either. Still not worried Benny went the day on as normal but when it reached lunch time and Rose still wasn't in sight he got a small twinge of worry.

"I wonder where Rose is?" Ethan asked Benny looking around the cafeteria.

"I didn't see her this morning, she usually dances around her bedroom in the morning but I didn't see her."

"You watch her in her bedroom?"

"Not the point dude"

"Maybe we should go over after school and make sure everything is alright" Ethan suggested and once the last bell rang they did just that.

They knocked on the door and it was a few seconds before Rose's mother opened the door worry obvious on her face, "hello boys, Rose isn't feeling well right now."

"Can we go up and see her?" Ethan asked starting to get concerned; Rose's mother paused like she was debating it before allowing them upstairs. They opened her bedroom door and Rose was laying there on her back with her eyes closed and her arms crossed over her chest the book Benny gave her in her hands.

Benny walked over and shook her arm "Rose we came to see where you were today" she didn't move. Benny and Ethan looked at each other than to Rose's mother who was standing in the doorway.

"What's wrong with her?"

Rose's mother looked sad "I'm not sure, I tried to wake her up this morning but she wouldn't move. She is breathing, it's like she is asleep and she just won't wake up."

"She should probably go to the hospital" Ethan said concerned at this point.

Rose's mother paused "trust me that just would not be a good idea."

Ethan put his hand on hers and that triggered a vision, "it's a spell."

"What did you see?" Benny asked worried.

"I saw her reading from that book she is holding, and then a spindle, she pricked her finger and she just fell back onto the bed like she is now."

Benny slapped his head, "It's my fault I gave her that book, it was my grandmas." He took it gently from her hands "maybe Grandma will know what to do." They rushed over to Benny's house and as soon as they opened the door they ran over to his grandma who was sitting in her favourite chair, "grandma! We need your help!"

"What is it boys?" she asked not getting up.

"It's Rose, I gave her one of your old books and now she is asleep and wont wake up" It all came out so quickly.

Grandma got up rather quickly starting to yell "you did what? Benny which book did you give that poor girl?"

"It was one at the bottom of one of your chests" Benny thought for a second "wait I have it here it is" and he handed it to her.

Benny's grandmother examined it "Benny you idiot! This is an enchanted book of fairy tales, whatever story you read it happens to you."

"Then which one did she read?" Benny asked

"I saw a spindle" Ethan added

"Sleeping Beauty" They all said in unison

"How do we wake her up?" Benny asked

"Her prince has to kiss her, like in the story or she will sleep forever" Benny's grandmothers said slowly closing the book.

"Where do we find one of those?"

"That is for you to find out" and with that Benny's grandmother walked upstairs.

Benny scratched his head "but there aren't any princes around here and I'm pretty sure kidnapping Prince Henry would not be easy."

"Is there a spell to make you a prince?"

"Why me? Why can't you do it?"

"Because I'm not the one with a thing for her remember"

Benny crossed his arms, "well I can check but I don't think that there is a spell for that"

"Well maybe your grandmother has a book on it?"

Benny's grandmother popped her head out from around the stairs "you boys really are stupid, I said her prince not just any prince will do" with that she gave them a wink and went upstairs.

"Maybe we should go back over and try to think of something, maybe her room will give us some clues of who her prince is" Ethan stated and they did just that.

Sitting beside her on her bed Benny couldn't help but feel terrible about what had happened. "She looks so peaceful" he muttered.

"Benny are these yours?" Ethan was pointing to the boxers that were still hanging on her lamp.

"Yeah…she said she was going to do my laundry for me and bring them over today"

Ethan got an epiphany "wait what does Rose usually call you?"

"umm…Han Solo?"

"No you idiot she calls you Geek Charming"

"So"

"So Prince Charming was a Prince and Geek Charming well I guess that's kind of Princely" Ethan pointed out.

"No I can't be her Prince" Benny looked at her like he was expecting some sort of answer "Can I?"

"One way to find out"

Benny looked nervous, she looked really beautiful; he leaned down and kissed her warm lips softly and briefly. She started to blink, "what happened?" she groaned.

Benny looked at Ethan and he knew what that meant, Benny did not want Rose to know that he kissed her. I should start keeping count Ethan thought just happy that Rose had woken up.

"You just passed out; you have been out for a while" Ethan lied well it wasn't a complete lie.

The next day went by pretty normal, everything went completely normal and Benny never told Rose a thing. Benny and Ethan were hanging at Ethan's so Rose decided that to head over to Benny's and wait for him there since he said he didn't mind. When she opened Benny's house door, his grandmother was sitting at the table. "Rose my dear, can you come sit with me for a moment, there is something I would like to talk to you about."

Rose nodded and went and sat down beside her "my dear Ethan told me everything about you using a freezing spell to help Benny when the whole down was overrun by zombies." Rose looked away, "my question to you is, how did you survive that? I know that spell and human that uses that would freeze to death."

"I'm lucky I guess" Rose didn't make eye contact.

"Who was it?"

"Who was what?"

"The vampire in your family, you would have to have one to survive that"

Rose looked at her "my grandfather, but I'm not a vampire I promise!"

"I know that sweetie, it's not hard to tell that"

Rose sighed "My grandfather was a vampire and he married my grandmother who was a witch, since she was a witch she used a spell so that she could get pregnant since vampires usually can't reproduce. I'm only a fourth so I'm practically completely human; I can die of old age and everything. Stuff like extreme cold can hurt me but can't kill me, the sun doesn't burn but it doesn't feel good either, that's why I am so pale." She took a breath "please don't tell Benny."

"Your secret is safe with me my dear, you can go upstairs and wait on him if you want"

Rose didn't feel so good anymore, "actually I think I'm going back home, tell Benny I'm sorry."

Benny got home and his grandmother told him what Rose said, he was disappointed when he went up to his bedroom. When he entered his room he noticed that Rose's light was on in her room and she was singing.

If there's a prize for rotten judgment,

I guess I've already won that,

No man is worth the aggravation,

That's ancient history been there done that

She twirled around and then Benny heard other voices but guessed it was from the CD.

Who you think you're kidding,

He's the earth and heaven to you,

Try to keep it hidden honey we can see right through you,

Girl you can't conceal it,

We know how you feel and who your thinking of,

Rose was dancing along to the music, like if she was actually singing it in a movie

No chance no way I won't say it no..no..

She threw her hands up and the CD sang back

You swoon, you sigh, why deny it uh oh

Rose grabbed her heart

It's to cliché; I won't say I'm in love

I thought my heart had learned its lesson

It feels so good when you start out

My head is screaming get a grip girl

Unless you're dying to cry your heart out

She then proceeded to twirl again and collapse on her bed putting her hands over her face as the choir started again.

You keep on denying who you are and how you're feeling

Baby were not buying, hon we saw you hit the ceiling

Face it like a grown up

When you gonna own up that you go it bad

Rose then proceeded to make her way to the window and Benny moved out of the way so she couldn't see him but he could see her out of the mirror.

No chance no way I won't say it no..no..

She propped her head on her hand and Benny swore she was looking straight at his window but when the choir started again she looked away.

Check your grin you're in love

Benny's light was off in his room so when she looked in that direction, she didn't know he was there. After a few more minutes of singing, she returned to looking out her window.

At least out loud I won't say

I'm in love

Benny sat on his bed Rose was in love huh? He looked slightly sad I wonder who it is? He spent the rest of the night thinking about all the guys at school trying to figure out who it could be.
