Everyone go back to the Masons' house.

Stella went straight up to her room without even saying anything to anyone.

Ben looks at her going up the stairs thoughtfully "Well, tomorrow is the big day" Charlie says "We all better rest, let's wake up early tomorrow" Will says.

"Everything okay Ben?" Marni asks, Ben takes a while to respond "Ben?" Marni says, Ben looks at her "yeah...I'm just tired" Ben says dryly and goes up the stairs, Marni shrugs.

"I can't wait to marry you tomorrow!" Charlie hugs her "neither can I, literally a dream come true" Marni smiles and kisses his cheek.

......................................................................

Ben goes to his room, put on his pajamas, but he can't sleep, he stares at the door and Stella does the same in her room.

Stella bites her lip thoughtfully, imagining what would happen if she walked down the hall.

She runs her tongue over her own lips trying to reconnect with the memory of Ben's kiss on her lips.

Ben gets up from his bed and goes to the door, he leaves his room silently, the hallway is dark because everyone is sleeping.

He looks at Stella's door for a while, he scratches the back of his head thinking that maybe it's a bad idea, he gives up and turns to go to his room, at that moment he hears the doorknob on Stella's door.

Stella opens the door and comes face to face with Ben, her heart races.

"oh Ben!" Stella says surprised, the last thing she expected was him standing at her door.

"Yeah...We have to stop meeting like this" Ben smirk "The ideal would be for us to sleep" Stella smiles quickly.

Ben nods his head "You're right" Ben approaches, Stella doesn't go back she continues standing at the door.

"Uh...about what happened today...I think we should..." Stella says slightly anxiously, Ben gets closer to her.

"...I won't forget it" Ben says before she can finish, Stella looks at him impressed that he knows what she was going to say, but confused.

"What!?" Stella sighs seeing him get closer "I won't forget this, not this time" Ben says softly, Stella takes a deep breath, with butterflies in her stomach.

Stella looks at his lips, slowly losing herself in the feeling "Great" Stella says softly, Ben holds her face and brings it close to his for a delicate kiss.

Stella doesn't hesitate to reciprocate and hold his arm, Ben opens his mouth a little and Stella slides her tongue into his mouth.

Both giving themselves to each other, feeling their hearts beat in sync, Stella holds his hair still trying to believe what is happening.

Ben takes her against the door frame, she moves her thigh up to his waist, Ben releases the kiss and they both try to catch their breath with the hot air between them.

They look into each other's eyes, checking what's happening, and whit who this is happening, they smile at each other.

Ben starts kissing her jaw and neck passionately, Stella takes a deep breath and lets it out, throwing her head back, Ben holds her thigh close to him.

She puts her hand on his back and starts to pull his shirt up, Ben moves his face away from her neck so she take off his shirt over his head.

She throws his shirt on the floor, Ben smiles, brushing her hair off of her face, she smiles gently with explicit happiness on her face.

Stella leans towards him, they reconnect their lips, which once again move in perfect sync against each other, along with the rest of their bodies

Ben pushes her against the wall gently with his body so he can pick her up in his arms.

With her in his arms, and with her legs around his waist, the two kiss passionately while Ben closes the bedroom door to take her to bed.

After he puts her in bed, it doesn't take long until all their clothes are on the floor, Stella holds tight to Ben's chain, pulling him into a warm kiss.

Nothing about what was happening seemed wrong to either of them, and the feeling of accomplishment and pleasure was reciprocal, starting to get difficult for both of them to stay silent.

All the tension they had been fighting for over the last few days was melting away with each touch, melting away in a pleasurable way.

Stella felt the satisfaction, not of Ben saying the apology she had wanted for so long, but of finally having the man of her dreams for her, just for her.

Ben felt complete, he didn't know he needed it and now he feels like he can't live without. without his best friend, who was her from the beginning, but little did he know that she was more.

At one point Stella stops and puts her hands on his face, to just look at him and try to understand why, even though they had both done that before, this time it felt much better.

Nothing ever felt so good, that moment was the moment when their feelings reached the limit that they could no longer keep to themselves.

This changes everything.

......................................................................

Some time later.

Stella finally lays her head on the pillow, she sighs loudly, out of breath, a little sweaty, Ben bites his lip and lies down next to her, equally out of breath and sweaty.

"Damn" Ben says under his breath, Stella closes her eyes and takes a deep breath, processing the information.

"I can't believe we did that" Stella says "Well...Everyone knows that enmity ends in sex" Ben chuckles, Stella looks at him, Ben swallows "I'm kidding" Ben says.

Stella chuckles "Oh you're ridiculous" Stella puts her hands on her face, Ben laughs and looks at the ceiling "But no one knows it feels so good" Ben says gently.

Stella puts her hair behind her ear and goes to him "You're so beautiful... always have been" Ben says, playing with her hair, while she rests her chin on his chest.

"Really? Always?" Stella raises her eyebrows "yes, why do you think I used to stare at you in math class?" Ben asks "Did you used to stare at me?" Stella asks "Yeah" Ben smiles.

"Why?" Stella says "I told you, I thought you were pretty, it was good eye candy" Ben smirks, he pulls her waist so she can get on top of him.

"A beautiful, nerdy and intelligent eye candy" Ben says softly, Stella smiles "And now?" Stella smile "And now all this is, plus sexy as hell" Ben smirk.

Stella fixes his hair and kisses him firmly, while he puts his hand on her waist and softens the kiss.

The two smile happily amidst the kiss.
