Part Six
Benjie and Crystal
Ch. 5
‘Benjie your late… and you snuck out.’ Riku came went into Benjie’s mind.
‘Sorry Dad… I was…’
‘Don’t explain, regardless you’re grounded.’
‘Dad… listen… I… I…’
“Alright, talk to me.” Riku said opening the door and sitting on Benjie’s bed.
“But won’t Mom hear us?”
“She can’t read my mind and if you don’t want her to read your mind you have to stop thinking about whatever you’re doing.”
“Alright…”
“So what’s up?” Riku asked.
Benjie remembering what his father said spat out everything in one shot. “Yesterday I went over see Crystal and we were alone and I ended up kissing her and spilling my heart to her and it turns out that she loved me and I left and I promised I’d come back and I end up kissing Tundra’s daughter and Crystal was there to see it and I helped Imani get the guy she wanted and-”
“Whoa, hold on, you kissed Crystal and then less than twenty four hours later kiss another girl? Son, what the heck is wrong with you?”
“Dad, Tundra’s daughter is clumsy, she tripped and landed on me and that’s how we kissed.”
Riku raised an eyebrow and then chuckled, “I think you shouldn’t tell her parents that one.”
“If she hasn’t told them already.”
“Ouch, you’re right. Doki’s going to kill you.” Benjie didn’t laugh with his dad. “Right, anyway, um… you’re just going to have to tell her.”
Benjie folded his legs (Indian style) and lowered his head. “She thinks I kissed Imani…”
Riku gazed off to the door and then at Benjie, “I did something worse before I married your mom, she’ll forgive you.”
Benjie looked up, “What did you do?”
Riku sighed, “I slept with my ex before I admitted my love for your mom.”
Benjie was wide eyed. “Dad… you did?”
“Yeah, and what’s worse she found out before she admitted her love to me.”
Benjie lowered his head but kept his eyes on his dad, “Whoa… your ex… was she…”
“Raven was alone and tired and sad… I couldn’t turn her away and I was alone too…”
Benjie was wide eyed. “Crystal’s mom!”
Riku sighed, “Yeah,” he said.
Benjie tried to keep his faces from twitching, he couldn’t believe his dad was once with Raven. “Um… Dad… I’ll go to see her in the morning to talk to her… is that okay?”
Riku nodded, “Okay, and if you’re going to run away at least tell me, your mom will fight you down to the ground to keep you from running off. But I’ll at least try to give you a chance… if you tell me.”
“So am I now not grounded?”
“Well, if your mom finds out yes, for me you’re off the hook.”
Benjie smiled. “Thanks dad.”
“No prob… sleep tight and go off to see her tomorrow,” Riku left the bed and closed the door behind him.
Benjie sighed and turned out the lights and went to sleep.
The next day Benjie woke and rubbed his head. He had a headache. Benjie got dressed and ran down stairs. He kissed his mom on the cheek and waved to his dad. “Benjie, where are you going?”
“I’m going to Doki’s place, Mom,” Benjie answered her. And before his mom could read his mind he opened a corridor and was gone.
Mai looked at Riku and Riku shrugged and turned back to the cooking.
Benjie arrived at the Old Mansion. He swallowed. He had to tell his true love that everything that happened was an accident. He knocked on the door and waited.
After waiting for a good ten minutes the door opened. “Oh crap…” Benjie started to turn away but was pulled back by his collar.
“YOU…” Doki had an evil deep voice.
“Doki listen, I swear I didn’t mean to do anything to her! I swear! It was all an accident!”
Doki pulled the frightened Benjie in. As he pulled him in, Benjie whined like a dog. “You hurt my daughter’s heart. Now… I’m going to break you…”
Benjie whined louder. “Babe, let him go, let’s at least hear his side of the story first, he’s our best friends’ son, let’s hear him out first before we cast him out,” Raven came to Benjie’s rescue and calmed Doki down… a little. Benjie was thrown on the sofa and Doki flopped down on the opposite chair waiting and drumming his fingers. “Alright, Benjie, we’re listening.”
Benjie sighed and explained what happened. “Tundra?” Doki asked.
“Yeah, her daughter is clumsy and she tripped and that’s how we ended up kissing, I couldn’t hurt Crystal… not like that,” Benjie cried. “I know it sounds fake, I know it sounds made up but that’s what happened.”
Doki groaned, “I believe you… but she’s really hurt.”
Benjie nodded. “I wanted to tell her that it wasn’t… I wasn’t two timing her, I could never do that…”
“Alright, I’ll go get her. Benjie stay here,” Raven stood from the chair and left to go get Crystal. Raven went up the left set of stairs on the left side of the first room and went into Crystal’s room. Raven came back with Crystal. “Babe, Benjie has something to say to you.”
Crystal looked at Benjie from the stairs. “Crystal, I swear I didn’t kiss Imani, it was an accident.”
“How can I believe that? You boys are all the same! You boys can easily jump from one girl to the next without any regret or remorse as long as you’re not caught!”
“But…” Benjie’s eyes of red and ice blue were filled with tears. He looked up into her hazel and green eyes. “I swear…”
Crystal turned away, “Benjie, I never want to see you again.”
Benjie whined like a dog and then he howled as his body slowly transformed into a dog. He continued to whine and he started to walk away… on all fours, and walked towards the door. Benjie’s clothes were left where he was kneeling and he was near the door when Crystal ran to him.
“Crystal, you should give him a chance, him transforming means he’s really down. I don’t think he’ll go through this much trouble if he did do something,” Raven said. She glared at Doki, waiting for him to help in some way.
Crystal looked at small dog. He continued to whine and weep. “Benjie…”
Benjie sat in the corner of the room once clawing at the door didn’t work. Doki groaned. “Crystal, sweetie, I think Benjie’s telling the truth,” Crystal looked at her dad. “Look you’re worried about him, if you truly don’t believe him you shouldn’t show affection.”
“Dad… you’re right, Benjie hasn’t lied to me before… even when he could have lied to me he hasn’t…” Crystal sighed. She walked over to the small dog and picked him up, Benjie, although very sad and upset didn’t snap at her, he just whined as she held him. “Benjie, it’s okay.”
Poof!
Crystal waved away the smoke. When she looked at Benjie she saw his him human ice blue and red eyes. “Benjie?” Crystal said holding him.
“Crystal…” Benjie said. “I’ll never hurt you again,” there was a laugh from the group. “What, I mean it! I’ll never hurt you again Crystal.”
The group laughed. “Benjie, you’re going to need to put your clothes on…” Crystal said.
Benjie looked down and saw that his… growing manhood was exposed along with the rest of his body. Benjie turned hot red and quickly got his clothes and vanished into the bathroom.
~Later~
When all was settle Benjie and Crystal sat with their parents. Benjie and Crystal held hands and waited for their parents response. Benjie was worried that his parents would be ticked off. Raven and Doki sat waiting. Zexion and Imani were there too.
But Benjie and Crystal stared surprised as Mai and Riku let out a laugh.
“You two were made for each other, weren’t you?!” Mai laughed. “Benjie,” she said with a sigh, “I’m happy for you but you shouldn’t go into Heart Haven like that. You are a prince and I don’t know who’s a friend or not, so you have to be with me when you go or at least tell me.”
Benjie stared amazed. “Okay… but what do you think about me and Crystal dating?”
“Well,” Riku sighed, “I’m cool with it but you guys can’t go sneaking out.”
“Really?! You’re okay with it?!”
“Why wouldn’t we be?” Mai asked.
Zexion rested his elbows on his knees, “He figured that with all the mess that happened last night you’d guys would be against it.”
“Hm… I see,” Mai nodded. “Zexion, I’m glad you’re alive too, being that you’re around I need you to organize and read books in the royal library.”
“Saix told me already, but I’ll gladly do it.”
“Alright, good. Well, it’s settled. You guys can date… no sneaking out and be home by ten on weekends and on week days be home by eight thirty. And if your grades drop at all I will have you, Benjie, will be grounded in Heart Haven for a long long time.”
Benjie swallowed. He understood clearly that although he’d be in Heart Haven for maybe a week it wasn’t the same amount of time in the Human realm so he’d be without Crystal for maybe thousands of weeks… if not months. “Got it…” he nodded.
Mai smiled. “Doki?”
Doki grinned at Mai, closed his eyes and leaned forward to Crystal, “Listen, I love you but don’t think I won’t have a field day with your punishment either. I’ll send you to live with Tundra, and we all know how she’s strict.”
Crystal swallowed, grinning, “Yeah, Dad, I got it.” She nodded.
“Riku?” Doki turned to him.
“Benjie, no contact until you’re both married. Got it?”
Benjie nodded, “Yeah, Dad.”
“Good, Raven?”
Raven nodded to Riku. “Crystal, don’t try to provoke him.”
Crystal rolled her eyes. “Yeah, like I’d do that.”
Raven narrowed her eyes, “Crystal, if I know anything in this world is that you learn how to control people, and you get that from me.”
“Got it.” Crystal said with a nod.
“Well, that’s that.” Mai smiled.
Riku stood. “Well, I guess this is done now.”
“Yeah,” Doki stood. He met Riku’s gaze. “So are we going to donate the money or what?”
“I want to, we have too much left over as it is…” Mai, Riku, Raven and Doki left the room and left the teens alone.
“Well, thank you Benjie,” Imani grinned.
“You didn’t keep your side of the deal, Imani,” Benjie said.
“Oh… right…” Imani blushed. “How should I repay you?”
Benjie grinned, “Just be our friend.” Benjie wrapped his arm around Crystal’s shoulders.
Crystal sighed and rested her head on Benjie’s shoulder. Zexion smiled and stood, “C’mon, I gotta get home.”
“That’s right, Saix is your ‘dad’. Okay, I’ll go with you.” Imani said. “See ya Benjie and Crystal, I’ll see you soon.”
“See ya… I wonder what they were talking about donations and stuff,” Crystal said.
Benjie grinned, “They’re planning to donate millions of dollars to a ‘stop starvation drive’, so they’re basically going to feed a lot of mouths and this is coming right of their pockets.”
“It pays to read minds. You’re lucky.”
“You’re right.” Benjie pulled her into a kiss. “I love you.”
“I love you too…” she kissed him again.
~And they all lived… in some cases… happily ever after~
