The Other Harmon (Benny Watts TQG)

Part 11 : Choke

I smiled as at last, I was off the horrid plane. I never liked flying even with mother and Beth but alone it was worse, at least on the way home Benny will be with me. I walked through the busy airport with my suitcase and my bag in my new pretty dress looking at all these things here and there

"Honeydew!" I heard Benny smile as he saw me as he stood with his one beaten up bag he obviously wanted a hug but I kept my distance "what? I haven't seen you in months and a wave is all I get?" he complained

"Sorry it's just been a rough flight"

"You wanna go to the hotel and have a nap?'

"Yeah" I nodded

"Me too, I'm more jet-lagged then you are" he laughs holding my hand to lead me out the airport

"Yeah well your use to it"

"True" he shrugs as we got outside and got a cab to our hotel Benny went and sorted the room as it was all in his name and I stood looking at the board of all the people here I was already scared "relax you'll beat them. All of them"

"What if I choke?"

"Then... we get a nice long holiday," he says

"Why? I might choke first game you'll still go on to the finals at least"

"No I won't," he says

"What are you talking about?"

"You choke, I resign. I'm not playing without you honeydew"

"No Benny you can't-"

"It's my decision I'm not leaving you all alone far from home, if you lose I'll lose then we can just go have a holiday" he explained "come on, 285 that's us," he says so I got my things following him off to our room and eventually we found it and we both had heart attacks as there was one king-sized bed in the middle of the room. "Shit. They said we'd have two" he sighed

"It's okay" I smiled

"What?"

"It's fine, we can make do, better than changing around again' I sighed putting my bags on the bed as I did I noticed something the door shutting and locking as I unpacked

"Now we're in our room? Can I have a hug now?" He complained

"Yes' I giggled Giving him a tight hug and he cuddled me too

"I missed you" he muttered

"I missed you Benny" I smiled moving away for a moment but still in his arms I could tell he wanted to kiss me everything about his face read it so obviously "Benny... it's really obvious what your next move is"

"Is it? Am I getting that predictable honeydew?"

"Maybe you are Benny," I smiled leaning in a little too try to hint to him I wanted him to but he gently pushed me back and went to sort his own things out looking nervous "Benny are you okay?"

"Ohh yeah sorry jet lag," he says
