Okay. I'm ready for him to come over now. I've showered, brushed my teeth and even done my makeup. I'm excited! I really like him. I think today is going to be super fun!


*Some time passes*

Hmmm weird. He was supposed to be here 40 minutes ago. Maybe he's stuck in traffic... or something. I guess I'll just watch some YouTube while I wait.

I sat down and started watching some PewDiePie.

My mom knocked on my door, and entered the room. "Wasn't Benjamin supposed to be here forty minutes ago?" My mom asked while still holding on to the doorknob.

"Yeah he was, but something probably came up. I'm sure he'll be here anytime." I answered in a cheerful manner.

"I hope so, you were so excited for him to come." My mom added, worrying about me.

I looked up at her and flashed a big smile.

"Come on mom, I'll be fine. Benjamin is a good person, so he's probably doing something really important." I said while stretching my arms.

Mom let go of the doorknob, and walked over to me, kissed my forehead and smiled, then walked out of my room again closing the door behind her.


*1 hour passes*


I'm actually really worried now. What if something happened to him. I should text him. 

I searched my room, trying to find my phone, and it ended up being under my pillow.

I texted him:

*30 minutes passes*

I heard my doorbell ring, and a sigh of relief left my mouth. "Thank God. He's finally here." I muttered to myself, while walking towards the front door.

I grabbed the handle, and opened the door. "Hey! I was worried si-" I didn't get to finish my sentence before he tightly embraced me in his strong arms, and once again his familiar scent returned to my nose.

"I'm sorry I fell asleep. I didn't mean to upset you. I'm sorry." He whispered while embracing me.

I blushed, and let go of his body while looking down at my feet.

"Oh, yeah, heh. Well at least you're okay." I said while still looking at my feet.

Suddenly I could feel his thumb and index finger on my chin, slowly lifting it, so I was now facing him.

His gaze completely paralyzed me, in a sense of euphoria. His fair complexion was highlighted by the lighting from the moon, and his black hair suddenly appeared lighter.


We went inside and took off our shoes. Hand in hand, we walked up the stairs to my room, and sat down on my bed.

He put his hand on my thigh, and gently squeezed it. My face reddened, so I delicately lifted his hand away. His hands are so big compared to mine.

"Look! Your hands are like the double of mine!" I cheered while holding my hand up against his.

"Heh, you're right." He smirked.

He suddenly intertwined his fingers with mine, and we were now bound together. 


"Hey, have you tried the new feature on Snapchat?" I suddenly asked.

"No, I havn-" I grabbed his phone, before he could finish. He tried to take it away from me, but I kept running away.

I tried to open his phone, but it had a password.

"What's your password?" I asked while still running away from him, laughing.

"I'm not gonna tell you." He said in a serious tone.

"Why the sudden seriousness...?" I asked, worried that I might have done something wrong.

He snatched the phone out of my hand, and I just stood there, speechless.

He seemed upset or angry, but, I didn't do anything. Did I?

"Look, just don't take my phone again, please." He said while looking down at his phone.

"Yeah, sure. I won't do it again." I stammered while looking at my feet.

He then, out of nowhere, walked over to me and hugged me.

"Don't worry. I forgive you, I'll always do." He said in a sudden cheerful manner.

I was confused for a second, because of the change in mood. But I just hugged back, and tsked queitly.


Are boys supposed to be so moody, or did I do something wrong? I'm new to all of this, so I don't know anything about boys and that stuff. Maybe it's supposed to be this way?

I don't know, I could ask Kaite on Monday. She and Dylan have been together for about a year or so, so it should all be fresh in their memory, so they could teach me.


We were getting ready for bed, so we brushed our teeth, and got into our pajamas. I was sleeping in my bed, and he was sleeping on a blow-up mattress on the floor next to my bed.

"Good night, sweetie. Sleep tight." He whispered in a soft voice, while giving my hand a light squeeze.

"Nighty night Bennie Boo." I whispered back, also giving his hand a light press.

"Heh, I like that you call me Bennie Boo." He smirked.

"Hey, stob it. S-t-o-p   i-t." I joked back at him.

Soon after, while still holding onto Ben's large hands, I could feel my eyelids becoming heavier and heavier, and my body felt like a rock.


The next morning I woke up because of the sunlight that was hitting my face, but when I looked around, Ben was nowhere to be found. 

Where is Ben?
