Ben x Jeff

Found and Fixed

In the morning, Jeff went out to look around one last time. He wasn't gonna lose what was his. They just got together and he didn't even get to talk to Ben about what happened. He searched all around, yet no luck. Red and a few others helped look for him. But none had no luck.
Jeff sighed and sat against a tree. "We're never gonna find him.." He mumbled.
"Don't speak like that" Red said, sitting next to him. "We'll find him eventually. Maybe he's somewhere in town?" He asked.
"Maybe.." He said. "We should go look."
Red nodded and got up. Jeff put up his hood and Red put on sunglasses. They headed to town while others continued to search the forest.

~at the cabin~

EJ was in the kitchen, cooking and contemplating whether what he was doing was wrong or not while his precious laid in bed, still sleeping. On one hand, all he's ever wanted was his little elf being with him and being able to cuddle him, hold him, kiss him, be flirtatious towards each other and just be happy. He was able to do that while they were both there in the cabin! And it felt amazing! Yet on the other hand..he never wanted to force it. He hates keeping his precious chained to the bed, forcefully mating with him. He hated seeing his precious unhappy. It saddened him. But if he let him go, he'd go back to that jerk-face that broke his heart. Maybe he should've listened to his offer and if he and the jerk broke up, he'd be able to be with his precious. He sighed and finished cooking. He went to Ben and gently shook the sleeping elf. "Hey baby.." He said softly.
Ben groaned a little, slowly waking up. "..huh..?"
EJ started unchaining Ben's wrists from the bed frame. "I made some food..you should really eat" He said softly.
"Mhm.." Ben responded, not wanting to disobey him. He was afraid he'd get punished again. He hated being punished when all he wanted was to be free. Sure, punishments would be fun if he gave consent. But he didn't. It was just assault.
EJ helped Ben to the table and served him and himself. He sat down next to Ben and they both started eating.
After a few moments of silence, EJ finally spoke. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry I kidnapped you and kept you here. I just..wanted you..so bad. And you were so upset about Jeff but wanted to get back together with him and I didn't want your heart to break again..after you eat and do whatever you gotta do, feel free to leave, okay? I don't want you unhappy..and Im really ashamed of what I've done to you. It was selfish and cruel and I'm so so sorry." He said.
"...I understand. I can't forgive you or trust you yet. You have to earn my forgiveness and trust. But I will give you a second chance.." He mumbled. "Do something against my will again, I won't ever look in your direction again or speak to you.." He mumbled.
EJ nodded. "I understand. Thank you." He said.
They finished eating and EJ did the dishes after and Ben went to take a nice bubble bath to relax some and to take his mind off of everything. He knew as soon as he was done bathing, he'd go straight out that door. He'd find Jeff, talk things out with him and apologize. Then things will be better. He just relaxed for a little while before getting out the tub. He dried off and got dressed and left the bathroom. EJ was sitting on the bed.
"..I'm leaving now." Ben said.
EJ nodded. "Alright. Is it okay if I come with you?" He asked. "I sorta don't wanna be alone right now" He said.
Ben nodded. "I guess..just..don't stand too close, okay?" He said.
EJ nodded and got up. The two left the cabin and started heading back home.

~with Jeff and Red~

Jeff growled, growing frustrated. "God dammit! He wasn't in town!" He growled.
"Calm down..he'll turn up eventually.." Red said. "But you can't lose your cool." He said.
Jeff nodded. "You're right..we'll never find him if I let my temper get the best of me.." He mumbled. "Let's walk around in the forest one more time.." He said.
Red nodded and they spread out, looking around. After a long while of walking, he saw two figures walking towards them. Not just any two figures. His elf and EJ. He started running towards them.
Ben saw Jeff running towards them and squinted a little bit before realizing it was Jeff. He started running up ahead.
"Wait!- hold up!-" EJ said, running after him.
As soon as the two were close enough, Ben practically tackle hugged Jeff and Jeff held onto him tightly. "I finally found you.." He mumbled. "Everyone looked everywhere for days.." He said. "I'm so sor-"
"No! Don't apologize! I'm the one who overreacted, I should've let you explain instead of getting mad and running off..its just- with the nightmare I had and all, I was on edge..you betrayed me in the nightmare and killed me but I know you wouldn't ever do that but it still made me upset and when I saw the photo I-" He panted, running out of breath from speaking so quickly after running.
Jeff held him. "I should apologize to, I shouldn't keep secrets from you" He said.
Ben looked up at him. "I hated being without you..it was terrible.." He said.
Jeff smiled and held his waist. "I practically broke down when I couldn't find you.." He said. The two shared a deep kiss, holding each other for awhile.
EJ looked away, taking a deep but silent breath. 'As long as he's happy..Im happy.." He thought.
"Where'd you go?" Jeff asked.
EJ tensed up, thinking he was done for.
Ben glanced at him and back at Jeff, contemplating whether to tell the truth or not.
"...I stayed at a cabin for awhile..EJ gave me company when I needed it and helped me out..I just needed to cool off..then something happened and I stayed longer than I intended.." Ben mumbled.
"I'm just glad you're safe..c'mon, let's go home." Jeff said, smiling.
Ben nodded. The three went back home. Jeff and Ben went to their bedroom and got on the bed. They cuddled for a long while in comfortable silence.
