BEN Drowned | Hopes And Dreams

Chapter XV

[ I'm lowkey scared I might not be able to update this book as frequently as I am trying now considering the fact that school starts tomorrow.

I know at some state, summer vacation just started, but it's different here from where I live.

So do forgive me if there was a delay in the updates. Ben and Asriel's story carries on!! ]

Stay Determined, Sweetums!~

If one of us had known, we all would've worn something fancy. If Ben had only told us, we wouldn't have look like a couple of peasants granted the honor to eat at such a fine dining restaurant.

If Ben had only told us..

"Oh, come on! Don't be so melodramatic. It's just a restaurant." Ben gushed unenthusiastically.

"Yeah, a restaurant whose customers wore clothing worth a whole villa!" I retorted and the two beside me couldn't have agreed more.

We were seated on a four-chaired round table inside a very fancy, eye-blinding, rich-filled people fine dining restaurant better known by the name El Grandè Deluxè; although, I am positive that the owner didn't even know the use of è and just put them there in order to look fancy.

The technique worked as it fooled an awful lot of rich people into thinking it was a fine dining restaurant. I mean, now it is. But when it started, it wasn't. The walls were covered with shimmering crystals I didn't even know existed. Some of them may be real, but I'm not a rock expert. There was a grand chandelier at the center of the establishment, covered with different colors of diamonds.

"I think I'm gonna be sick." I gagged and the two; Masky and Hoodie, followed my gagging pattern.

Ben casually rolled his eyes as he said, "Relax, I've been here a lot of time to be pretty popular." He bragged and he was right as the waiter casually strolled to our table.

"Ben! It's great to see you, man." The waiter, whose strawberry blonde hair sat perfectly tousled on his head chimed. His bright brown eyes glimmered in joy at the sight of the blonde wraith. His lips formed a perfect smile that illustrated his perfectly dimpled cheeks(Omg, I think I have a crush).

I must've been staring for too long when the waiter turned his attention to me. Our eyes met and for a second, I felt my heartbeat stop. He flashed that dimpled smile at me and my entire being collapsed(as dramatic as it sounds).

"Hi, my name is Camden and I'll be your waiter for this morning." His sultry boyish voice echoed inside my ears. He was adorable. He. Was. Adorable. Period.

"H-Hi, Camden." I stammered and at the corner of my eye, I could see a frowning Ben staring at me. I could feel Masky and Hoodie's stare as well; but I was too busy gawking shamelessly at the waiter.
