Chapter 15: "I waited for you"
I wake up feeling warm and nice. I open my eyes to see Ben's sleeping face. I look around noticing Ben's arms around me. I look back staring at his childish smile.
He may be thousands of years older than me, but he sure does look like a little kid.
"So cute." I whisper staring tiredly at him. But suddenly Ben opens his eyes and says, "well, your more cute." I blush startled.
"W-what?! Your awake?!" He smiles sweetly at me and says, "I never slept." I look at him still startled, "w-why?...why didn't you sleep? Aren't you tired?" He smiles rubbing my head. "Creepypastas don't sleep that often, I've noticed we probably sleep like...2-3 times a week. We don't get as tired as humans do. That what makes me the best boyfriend you can ever have. I don't just simply get tired of people and move on...I love you."
I smile and say, "your getting off topic...and I love you too...-and don't worry. I already said I'm not leaving. You don't have to keep persuading me to stay."
Ben looks at me surprised and says, "you-you really know me well...too well." I smile and look him straight in his eyes.
Ben smiles back. "What do you want for breakfast?" I look outside his window to see daylight. "Oh. We- I slept through the night...sorry." Ben sits up and says, "it's ok, I like watching you sleep...it's cute."
I smile a little and look down. "Bacon...and eggs sound nice." He smiles and says, "your wish is my command." We laugh as I get out of bed. Ben follows me off the bed. "Hey, why don't you play Ocarina of time till I get back?"
"Where are you going?" I ask concerned. Ben takes my hand and says, "no no, don't worry. I'm not going anywhere. In the pantry, we have powdered eggs. Hmm, is it ok if we don't have bacon?"
I smile and sigh relieved, "its totally fine! No worries! As long as your not going to ditch me here it something." Ben kisses my forehead and says, "now why would I do something like that? I love you." I smile relieved and say, "don't know, I love you too."
Ben smiles and leaves his room. I sit next to his TV and plug in the controller. All of a sudden Ben walks back into his room and says, "don't worry, I'm not leaving. Got it?" I nod. He sighs in relief and walks slowly out.
-----time skip----
After about 7 minutes Ben walks back into the room and says in a sing-songy voice, " I'm back." I smile looking him.
I follow him to the table where it was all set up. Two chairs next to each other with eggs and waffles. "Hey, where'd you get the waffles?" Ben smiles and sits me down at the table. "I uh..."
He sits down next to me and says, "ok don't get mad, I went over to the house where they already made breakfast and I brought it here..." I start eating and say with a full mouth, "why didn't you just have me go with you and eat there?"
Ben looks at me a little ashamed and says, "I wanted you and me to stay here, I still have things to show you...but I didn't want you to worry...after you said all those things...I-I was afraid, you might worry. Sorry..."
I stop eating and look over at Ben. I swallow my food and say, "it's ok, Im sorry I worried you. thanks for at least telling me...um, what else do you want to show me? "
Ben laughs and says, "I'll show you after breakfast." I continue eating with a smirk.
------time skip----
Once We finished, Ben took our plates and washed them in the sink. "Hey, need any help?" Ben turns to me. "No it's ok, thanks." I nod and walk to Ben's room.
On the dresser was Ben's heirloom, exactly where I left it. I put it in my hair and smiled.
It's hard to believe that he would give something like this to me. I smile widely like an idiot. Suddenly I feel arms wrapping around me, I flinch startled. "Hey hey, it's me." Ben says in a calm voice. I smile holding his hands.
"Sorry, I-I was just startled. Oh, and thanks for the breakfast...I appreciate it."
Ben kisses my head and says, "your welcome, anytime... Oh, I have a question, about
Your locker." I turn around facing him and ask, "h-how'd you know? About the locket?" Ben smiles. "Come on, Ive known you your whole life. How would I not know?"
I smile. "Hey, if you've known me my whole life, why did you wait to meet me till I was in the forest?" Ben hugs me harder. His smile slightly fades.
"Gosh it was agonizingly hard. So hard to do. But I kept patient. I waited for so long. It was-" I interrupt him confused, "y-your not making sense. Start over." Ben calms down a little.
"Ok sorry, um...well, Jadusable told me about you and showed me your address. When I got there you were about two years old. I knew I loved you from when I first saw you, on the floor playing with your dolls-" We both laugh. "-but, you were a toddler...so I waited...and waited. But this one time, When you were around 12. I was so tempted to approach you...but I waited. At least till you were my age.-" I smile as we both sayin unison, "-fourteen."
"I-I thought...it would be more appropriate that way. T-To wait...but It was harder, the more I had to wait...the more my affection grew towards you..." He began to cry a little. But was smiling at the same time.
"I'm just so thankful your here, with me...finally." Ben looks down crying a little. I don't usually cry...but right now. here. In this moment. I felt I might break down.
"You-you really waited that long?" I ask, voice breaking. He nods and started hugging me. Pressing my face into his chest. I start blushing. I noticed he started crying as well.
I push him away. And Look him in the eye. "Ben...I'm here now, right now, In this moment. So you don't need to worry, or cry...or anything...I'm here..." Ben smiles a little opening his eyes.
I take his hand. "Ben, I love you too..." I than take the back of his head and pulled it close to mine. "I love you..." I whisper.
I than started kissing him. Ben just stood there eyes wide. I know why I did it. I felt bad for him. And I love him, I really do. I wanted to do anything possible to keep him happy. I couldn't take it. just sitting there and watching him this way.
Ben than closed his eyes kissing me back. He slowly calmed down, hugging me tighter. Once We both release from the kiss. Ben smiles staring me in my eyes. "I'm sorry for breaking down like that in front of you. I'm just...digging up the past and I-" I shush him interrupting his sentence. "It's ok, it needed to be said. And needed to be dealt with. I glad you told me..."
I wipe his tears. "Come on, let's go for a walk." I was about to walk out the room when Ben grabs my hand. "wait...siren-" I look back towards him. " thank you. F-for doing that. What you did. I Know what you did. And I appreciate it. " I smile at him dragging him along with my.
"Here sit down on the couch." I tell him as I walk into the kitchen. When I come back I give him a tissue. "Here. Let's get you cleaned up before we go. " Ben smiles and says, "hey. I'm supposed to be the one taking care of you." I smile sitting next to him on the couch. "Now that's not very fair, now is it?" Ben smiles setting the tissue on the table.
