You Shouldn't Have Done That(A Ben Drowned Fan-fic)

Chapter 16

Like is a Weak Term for How I Feel About You Part 2

Gene's POV:

  I sat on the couch, talking about every thing that happened between Ben and I last night to T. "How romantic!" She squeeled. I lean against the back of the couch, crossing my arms, "if almost getting killed is romantic, sure." I mutter. Her eyes glinted, "no! He saved you. Then you share a kiss under the moonlight at your doorstep. That's romantic!" Just as I was about to speak, Ben crashed through the door, nearly breaking it down. T jumped in shock. I shook my head. "Gene! Oh thank god!" He shouted wrapping his arms around my neck. "Ben, what are you doing?!" I pushed him back, gasping for air from his death hold. "I had a nightmare, some demon like thing killed you." He squaked. "Jesus Ben." Was all I could get out. T smiled, "so Ben how do you feel about Gene, she said you kissed but she doubts you have feelings for her! Tell us you do! Please!" She begged. Ben laughed for a minute before turning to me with a straight face. "Gene, why would I kiss you without having feelings for you?" I shrugged. He grabbed my hand and pulled me up from the couch. "Of course I like you...no, I..uh...well...I think I...Love you...." My eyes widened. T squeeled in overjoyment. I was speechless. "I mean if you don't feel the same way, that's ok too...." his voice trailed off, he let go of my hand, letting it drop down to my side. I starred at him, too stunned to move. "Oh...ok, I'll just go then..." T looked at me with hope fipled eyes. That's when I did the unthinkable. I grabbed his wrist as he began to walk away, and yanked him back. He crashed into me, confusion was written on his face. Without even thinking, I kissed him. He tensed up for a minute but then began to kiss back. My heart felt like it was about to leap out of my chest. T was squeeling once again. I pulled away and looked into the eyes of a smiling Ben. I quickly began to feel self concious and looked down at my feet. Heat radiated off my face like it was a furnace. Ben chuckled. "So you do like me?" I glanced up at him, then back towards my feet, "well actually, "like isn't enough to describe how I feel." He pulled me into his chest. I burried my face into his chest. "So you love me then?" He whispered in my ear. I couldn't speak with how embarassed I felt, I just nodded like an idiot instead. "I want to hear you say it." He whispered. A chill ran down my spine. "I...love you..." I murmered. I felt his lips curve into a smile on my head. "I love you too." He said softly. The blushing intensified. T was pracitcally jumping with joy, out of her own skin, I'd like to add. She finally spoke up, "Ben you should spend the night with us!" She exclaimed. He laughed and pulled away, "I'd love too. Gene?" I stuttered, "uh..Sure."

  ~time skip to that night~

  I lay down in my bed next to T. She sat up reading some lame book called Ghost in The Attic. I don't know the authors name, though I don't really care. I'm not a big book lover. I'm more of a technology and T.V person. I guess it runs in the family. Ben jumped over us unexpectedly. I let out a tiny squeek in shock. The two of them just laughed. Ben got under the covers, next to me. "I hope we can all fit like this." I muttered. T giggled, "well I haven't fallen over the edge yet." Ben added, "and I'm against the wall so I don't have to worry about that. I'm pretty comfortable." I chuckled. "Well I'm being squished to death." The two of them laughed and closed in on me. I ended up practically throwing T off the bed. She groaned, "my tailbone!" Ben and I lajghed as she attempted to crawl back onto the bed. We all lay down and she turned off the light. I heard Opi scurry along the nightstand and hop onto the bed. He curled up on the pillow between Ben and I. "Just incase you get any ideas." He deadpanned. Ben growled in disappointment, T and I chuckled amongst ourselves. I felt Ben wrap his arms around me and pulled me close to him, I felt my head touch Opi in the process. "That's close enough Buddy boy." Opi muttered. Ben giggled and nuzzled into my sholder. Soon I was out cold.

  I heard a weird noise and I jolted up from the bed. I looked around my room to find a figure looming over my bed, right above T. I let out a shrill scream. Ben jumped up grabbing his sword from the end of the bed. T jumped but remained in her laying fetal position. Ben noticed the figure and leaped at it within a milisecond.they both clattered to the ground hitting each other and rolling around the floor. T stumbped for the lamp and rushed to turn it on. We looked at the figures wrestling on the ground. The person wore an orange hood that masked his face. Ben stopped, his fist in midair, "Hoodie!?" The hooded man looked up, "Ben...what are you doing here?" The both got up, "I should be asking you the same thing" Ben growled. Another man, came out of the corner. He had a mask over his face. "Masky. You're here too?" Ben asked. The masked man nodded. "Well damn you guys. Don't sneak up on me like that!" The hooded one crossed his arms, "like we knew you were here." Ben mimiced his action, "well like I said what are you doing here? It's not like you have the balls to kill anyone. You guys are too sweet to do that." The masked man stammered, "we can kill! We do it all the time!" The hooded one added, "and we aren't that sweet!" Ben's face contorted and he broke into a laughing fit. "T-that's not funny!" The masked man whined. "Ben!" I yelled. He immidiatly stood up and hummed at me. "Who are your friends?" T asked. "Oh these goof balls?" He asked, pointing over his sholder with his thumb. "That's hoodie, and the one over there is masky. Masky, Hoodie, that girl over there is T and the one next to her is my girlfriend Gene." Masky and Hoodie looked at each other, then us, then Ben, "you have a girlfriend!?" The shouted in unison. "Yepp, isn't she purrrtttyyy." He hummed. I blushed. They both nodded. Then Masky asked, "hey. Can we spend the night too? I likr making friends and I've never been to a sleep over!" I chuckled, "sure, but theres no room on the bed, you'll have to...." I trailed off when the ignored what I said and crawled to the foot of my bed, taking some blankets and cuddling up to eachother. I rolled my eyes and lay down, Ben returned to his spot and we were all sound asleep again.
