"Darling, who's texting you at this hour?" Dallace asks me.

"Don't worry about it, let's just get ready to watch the movie." I say smiling.

Dallace looks at me questioningly but doesn't utter another word. You guys head to your room and play video games together. Every so often, Dallace loses and throws a fit. Refusing to play again unless you let him win and most importantly, give him a kiss.

  Then, after a few hours you two start to get dressed into matching pajamas, lay in bed, and begin to watch the movie. It felt nice to be cuddled up next to Dallace like this. It made you feel warm and safe in his grasp. I wouldn't want anything more than this.

After the movie was over, I gave a heavy yawn and stretched. Tucking myself back into the sheets, snuggling into Dallace once again.

"We should watch another, what do you think sweetheart?" Dallace asks, turning his head towards me.

"Sure, you can pick." I say.

Dallace nods at me as he grabs the controller. I was pretty sleepy already, but I didn't want to say no to him. Dallace picks the movie to watch, and after 30 minutes my eyes began to feel droopy.

'My eyes feel so heavy. I'm just gonna close my eyes for a second.'

Next thing I knew, I drift off to sleep. Dallace was speaking to me but since I had fallen asleep, I stayed silent. He ranted about the character not knowing how to throw a 10 pound sword, saying he could do it easily. He looks over to me for any sign of me being impressed. I begin to snore softly in my sleep. Dallace chuckles at that, noticing how dumb he was being, just for you not to hear him.

Then, Dallace heard a buzz sound. It came from my phone, my lock screen of me and Dallace smiling had appeared. Dallace reaches for my phone and looks at the message that was sent by the unknown number, his eyebrows furrowed.

Today, 10:44pm
Unknown Number: I know I told you to reply when you could, but I want to talk to you. I said it already, but it's me Ben. I'm not sure why you haven't been checking your phone, but please answer.

Who the hell did this guy think he was? How desperate was he to text you at this hour? And to even think about you replying to him was complete nonsense!

Clearly, the only reasonable thing to do in this situation is to text him back. But of course, I couldn't tell him to just get lost and block him right after. Getting information from him would be better, in case I ever needed it. I can't let anything happen to Y/N, not after Ryan. So, I put in Y/N's password "325599" aka, "Dallyy." I smiled as I typed it in, but my smile faded as I clicked on the random guy's chat.

Unknown Number

Today, 10:46pm
Y/N: Ben?

Today, 10:46pm
Unknown Number: Y/N!! I'm so relieved you finally answered. I was scared I had the wrong number

Today, 10:47pm
Y/N: What do you want??

Today, 10:47pm
Unknown Number: Y/N, I've missed you so much. I'm sorry if it's sudden but we haven't seen each other or even spoken to each other in 5 years. I just wanted to know how you were, maybe even organize something to meet up and chat

Today, 10:48pm
Y/N: I'm not sure if that's a good idea at the moment. Wait, who is this? I know many Ben's so I'm asking to make sure this is who I think it is

  Ben had started to type right after Dallace had sent that last message. Out of nowhere, Y/N's eyes fluttered open. She sees Dallace holding her phone, his eyes deep in concentration. He hadn't noticed she had woken up yet.

"Dallace?" Y/N says, her voice sounded muffled and confused.

  Dallace's concentration loosens, startled by her voice. His head shoots up to meet Y/N's gaze. He looked suspicious, and Y/N noticed it instantly. Especially when Dallace tried to hide her phone behind his back, even though he knew she had seen it in his hands. Dallace physically face palmed himself, realizing his stupidity.

"What are you doing with my phone that you need to hide it?" Y/N asked.

"I-I was just... looking at some pictures of you." Dallace answered.

"Dallace, you're terrible at lying. Hand it over"

  Reluctantly, Dallace slowly revealed my phone from behind his back and handed it to me. I sat up and took it. It was off, but when I clicked the power button, the unknown number's messages were no longer there. I furrowed my eyebrows and looked up at Dallace. His face was red and his expression was worrisome.

"Dally, if you wanted to know who was texting me you should have just asked." I said with a sigh.

"I know but-" Dallace stopped when a buzz came from my phone.

  Both me and Dallace looked at my phone. I saw the message and it read, "It's me Ben, your brother?? I thought you knew who this was when I texted you, but I guess you stayed the same haha. Anyway, would you be able to meet to catch up? I'm in town this week for work"

  I giggled when I read it, but Dallace looked at me angrily. I noticed his stare but ignored it and continued to laugh.

"Well? Who is it? Who's texting you this late!?" Dallace asked.

  After I didn't reply and kept laughing, Dallace had gotten impatient and very curious. He scooted himself close to me and took my phone, putting in the password and reading the message. When he saw it, his face turned bright red once again.

"Y/N, I'm sorry! I-I didn't know that he was your brother, if I did I wouldn't have!-" Dallace rambled.

  You only laughed harder at his reaction, while he tried desperately to make the situation any better than it already was.

Sorry for the short and pretty bad chapter. I haven't had much motivation but I'll try to update more often for you all <3
