You're My Saviour // Ben Bruce (EDITING)

Ten

I had just finished packing when Ben came thundering up the stairs shouting for me.

"Lace! We gotta get going. Like, now."

"I know, I'm ready to go."

"Promise you'll be good while we're there, I don't want you actually getting pregnant."

I rolled my eyes and gave him a cheeky grin.

He put his arms around my waist, and I wrapped my arms around his neck.

Our foreheads were touching and I could smell smoke and alcohol on him.

Somehow I liked the smell. Whenever I was close to him, I felt at home.

"Promise me one thing?" He closed his eyes and his mouth slightly opened.

"Okay, what?"

He opened his eyes, ran his hand through his hair, and pulled me into a big bear hug.

"Promise me... you will let the guys at Warped know you're MINE." He made sure to make the word 'MINE' be heard.

"I promise. I'll probably just chill at the bus most of the time."

"James is one of the people I'm really worried about around you. He tends to get... Touchy Feely with any girl that's attractive, and over 18. You're both of those."

Just when I was about to speak, Danny screamed that we had to get going right away.

I grabbed my bag, but Ben took it from my hand and told me he'd hold it for me.

He was so good to me. One of the amazing things about him was, he could be a wanker and a twit, but he could also be a gentleman, and treated me with respect.

"Well, looks like we better be going." I smiled at him and grabbed his free hand.

He nodded and we walked out to the bus, which the rest of the guys were already seated inside of, impatiently waiting for us. Shouting out both our names for us to hurry the fuck up.

I was climbing the steps into the bus when James turns the small corner and bumps into me, causing me to fall backwards onto Ben, who wasn't prepared for impact and fell backwards as well.

"Fuck! I'm sorry Lacey! Apologies to you too, Ben." he had a fake worried look on his face.

James leaned onto me and put his arm around me. He was smiling at me, and getting awful close to my face. When I could feel his breath on my cheek, his face bacame distorted and smushed when Ben's hand shoved him away from me.

"The fuck, James?" Ben didn't look happy. Not one bit.

"I was just helpin' er up, mate." he had a confident smile on his face, as if he'd done nothing wrong.

I scoffed at his behavior. He never acted like this around me until now.

"You fucker, don't touch her when we're on Warped, or anytime! I swear I will fucking kick your ass."

Danny, Sam, and Cam heard the arguing and came to see what the problem was.

I pushed past James and Ben, neither of them even gave me a side glance.

"What's goin' on with em'?" Cam tilted his head slightly back and gave me a questioning look.

"James was flirting with me, and kind of looked like he was about kiss me." I was actually quite entertained at how the two gave eachother sharp stares.

"James is a prick, love. He's always going after Ben's gals." Danny squinted his eyes and a smile creeped onto his face.

"Why only Ben's girlfriends?"
