Guardian of the Proxy (Ben Drowned story)

Chapter 29

The sound of people talking woke me up. I opened my eyes to see Masky, Hoodie and Ben. I sat up on the couch. "Gah. W-what happened?" I inquired, placing one hand on my head. My head hurt.

"Do you remember anything?" Masky asked me. Ben pulled me in for a hug. I hugged him back. I do remember being all irresponsible.

"I do," I started, "my attitude. I-I'm so sorry. I don't know what I was thinking. I'm so sorry, Ben!"

Ben pulled away from the hug and gave me a smile. "It's okay."

I managed to smile back at him. "We're glad you're okay, Mrs. Davis," spoke Hoodie. "Thank you."

I turned to look at Ben and frowned. "You destroyed my necklace. The necklace you gave me--"

"I'm sorry, Freckles. 'Had no choice," he responded. "Slenderman is going to kill you." Masky told Ben. Ben chuckled, "But I'm dead."

Masky and Hoodie both sighed.

"I just can't believe I did all of this. My friends," I quaked. "Will you tell us what happened? We already know, but we would like to hear it from you," said Masky.

And I told them everything that happened to me on that Halloween night.

....

"Elise," called Ben. I turned around to see Ben, panting. "Yes, Ben?" I tilted my head to a side.

"I wanted to ask you something," he murmured.

"What?"

"Would you like to go out with me? Tomorrow night? We could watch a movie," he started to blush slightly as he began to walk towards me. I gave him a grin before nodding my head. "Of course,"

Then, he did something that will mark me forever.

He pressed his lips on mine. My eyes widened, but soon I closed them, enjoying the kiss. This is honestly better than Brandon's kisses.

Wait, do I like Ben?

It's weird because he was my best friend. But now? What now?

We both pulled away. I was blushing uncontrollably, he was just smirking slightly. "I can't believe I'm saying this; but I like you, Freckles-- No, wait. I don't like you, I love you. I've never felt anything like this before. I've never even said something similar. I honestly can't believe what I'm feeling. B-but, I'm just in love with you! It's something I can't explain. But....would you want to be a cool-sexy-gamer-guy's girlfriend?" he smirked. I began to laugh slowly and gently, still blushing. I can't believe I'm doing this.

"I do."

He smiled big as he picked me up and twirled me around. I laughed. He began to kiss my cheek several times as he hugged me tightly. "Cause I'm dreaming, of you tonight. 'Till tomorrow, I'll be holding you tight," he began singing. "And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be, than here in my room, dreaming about you and me,"

I giggled, as he placed me down on the floor.

Let's see how this turns out.

....

A few days later, I was at the mansion, just sitting on a chair at the kitchen and talking with Jeff.

"And then you tell them to 'Go to sleep'. Awesome, right? I invented it," Jeff remarked, drinking a glass of vodka. I was just drinking orange juice. "That's impressive......for a murderer." I stated.
"Well, Snow Queen, for your information, it is quite impressive." he said. I rolled my eyes and grinned.
