Letting his hand cup her cheeks, he captured her lips in a chaste kiss before walking out of the house, leaving her to rest.

Ten days later:

Y/n, Jolene and Townes were on their flight to Las Vegas for a grand party that Beth Harmon was hosting since she had won the title of being the world chess champion.

Townes and y/n were her ex competitors and Jolene...well, she was just accompanying them.

Y/n was seated on the seat beside the window, looking at the perfect lilac sky, wondering about the night she went to the bar.

She was still confused if she got a taxi by herself or someone had dropped her off. At first, she was sure someone had dropped her but then there was no way she woke up in her bed. Then she admitted that she was completely drunk, took a taxi, opened the front door and just got under the sheets.

'What are you thinking about?' Jolene asked her.

'Nothing, just trying to sleep.' said y/n.

For the rest of the flight, she laid her head against her friend's shoulder and took a really long nap.

------------

Benny had already reached the hotel where everyone was going to stay for a couple of days during the reunion and Beth's party.

He was sitting on a couch in the lobby surrounded by a group of men who were fascinated by his interesting chess skills, giving them answers to the twisted questions they asked.

To be honest, he was here to check whether y/n had reached safely since he never got the ticket for the flight in which she was arriving to Vegas.

He placed his feet on the table and laid against the couch comfortably as he talked with the group of men and that's when he spotted y/n with her two friends.

She was just outside the hotel, struggling to carry her suitcase up the stairs miserably.

'I'm sorry that I've to go.' Benny said to the men.

He rushed to where she was, giving her a surprised smile.

'Y/l/n! Didn't think you'd get here so soon!' he exclaimed ignoring Townes and Jolene completely.

'Hello, Benny. Are you upset with me coming here early?' y/n messed with him.

'Of course not my love. Here, let me carry that for you.' he said, trying to grab the suitcase from her hand.

'Please, I can do that for myself.' she declined politely.

'Well, I'm sure a pretty woman like yourself can... but you shouldn't be lifting it. Please, allow me.' Benny insisted, taking the bag from her hand and glaring at Townes.

'Thank you.' y/n mumbled shyly and made him feel butterflies in his stomach.

Townes scoffed under his breath and y/n was shocked to see Benny lift the heavy suitcase with ease. Together they went in and y/n got hers and Jolene's room keys.

'I swear he's creepy.' Jolene whispered in y/n's ear once Benny left after dropping them to their room.

'Yeah, a total nutcase.' Townes said from behind Jolene and y/n.
