To love a creepypasta ( BEN ROMANTIC fanfiction )

Chapter 37: The Decision

=== Ben's POV ===

Siren froze. She looked at me with a surprised look. She then drops her head and starred at her feet. "W-What do you mean?" She griped my hand as she said it. "Just like I said... I think we should leave the mansion." She didn't look at me. She was silent for a moment. "Why do you want to leave?" Siren finally said. I sigh, "This isn't a safe place for you... It was my mistake bringing you here." She stepped back and asks, "So do you want me to leave?" She looked up at me with a face mixed with emotions. I couldn't tell what she was thinking. "Well, I'm coming with you. Don't worry about that. We'll move somewhere... Safer." I said quickly trying to reassure her.

"By 'we' do you mean you, me, and the others? Or..." I shake my head. "No... Just you and me." She started to think to herself. "A-Are you serious?" I look deeply into her eyes. "Dead serious."

"What about everyone else? Will you just leave your friends behind? The people you've known longer than me?" I was starting to get a little pissed by that statement."That's not true at all! I've known you longer than everyone! I went to see you before I even went to the mansion! Plus, I care about you more than any of them!" She looked startled after I said that. I didn't care... I just wanted her to understand. "I love you siren..." I grabbed her wrist and said, "I'm doing this to keep you safe!" She looked a little scared. My eye was starting to twitch.

I feel like I'm about to lose myself to insanity.

I step back and realized how I was acting. I started to pull my hair over my face. I was slowly fighting my insanity. If I'm going to convince her to leave with me, I have to be fully sane. "Ben calm down!" Siren yells grabbing my head, forcing me to look at her. She stared intensely into my eyes. "Come back to me..." I was starting to calm down.

She looked at me with a concerned look and asked, "Are you feeling better? Are you sane again? Is what I'm saying even getting to you?" I nod. "I... I'm feeling better." She sighs with relief. "Did I lose it?" I ask. To be honest with myself, I wasn't really sure what I did was real or not. "For a minute there... I can't believe I actually got you to calm down." Siren said with a relieved expression.

Idiot...

"Of course you did... Your Siren." I said with a smile. She sighs and let's go of me. "Well... I'm going to my room..." I call to her, "Don't forget to pack." She looks back to me and said, "But... I don't want to leave the mansion." I sigh. "This is non-negotiable, Siren... Your coming with me, whether you like it or not." She looked terrified by what I said. "B-But..." I open her bedroom door and walked in. "I'll help you... If we leave while everyone's occupied, we can escape without attracting any attention." I open her closet and pulled out a suitcase. "What about food? What about shelter and transportation? What about money? How could we even pull this off?"

I thought about what she said and sighed.

"How do you think us Creepypastas get our food? We steal it or someone pays for it." I start to fill Siren's suitcase with clothes. "I can repair a car I found in the forest. We can get a job." I stop packing and look up to her. "The point is that we will find a way. We just have to use my powers wisely." She sighs and says, "Isn't this a little much? Why did you suddenly want to leave?"

I give her a sad smile. "I'm sorry... It's my fault you're always in danger..." Siren started to yell, "That didn't answer my question!" I stand up and say, "I want to protect you! ...Okay?! You saw how you reacted to the food! This mansion is too much for you!" Siren walks up to me with an irritated look. "Too much for me?! Are you saying I can't handle the living environment here?!" I didn't answer back. We both started at each other with an angry look.
