Work Text:
Benny and Ethan were at Whitechapel High after school
"C'mon Benny, let's just get this over with and go already," Ethan said as he opened the door to the principal's office.
"No need to rush Eth, we are alone, no one is coming for hours"
"I know, but I still don't wanna get caught in case some teacher comes back late for whatever reason."
"Alright, We're going to be done soon," Benny said as he searched principal hick's desk.
Ethan waited by the door for benny to find what he was looking for.
"Got it," Benny said as he jingled a pair of keys in the air.
"Let's just go so we can get this over with before either of our parents know we are not in bed," Ethan said impatiently
"Chill, dude, I put an illusion spell on our beds, they won't know anything, if they look at our beds they will see us sleeping peacefully"
"If you say so," Ethan said as the two of them went into the science classroom.
Ethan and Benny searched the classroom, Benny found what he was looking for, his book of spells.
Ethan also found something he didn't want benny to see, so he grabbed it.
he went to put it behind his back, Benny saw this and was curious as to what Ethan was hiding
"Woah, what's that Ethan?" Benny asked as he attempted to grab whatever it was from behind Ethan.
"It's nothing," Ethan said as he did his best to avoid benny seeing it
"If it was nothing then show me"
"I'd Rather Not, Besides you got your spellbook back, let's just go and forget about this day"
"Permock Abnar Bennynotrath Keyvento Morchuos Abnar bennynotrath" Benny Casted.
"Good, now you are going to do anything I want, now then, Ethan give me what you have behind your book"
Ethan did as Benny asked and gave Benny, the object that was behind his back, it turns out it was a journal."
"Ooh a journal, let's see what Ethan writes in his private little journal"
"It's nothing, please give it back" Ethan pleaded
"Cmon, I gotta know my best friend's secrets," Benny said as he opened the journal to a random page and began reading
"Besides, we spend the majority of our time together and I know you like Sarah," Benny said still reading the journal
"Well, yeah, but there are other things," Ethan said
"Yeah, like what?"
"Just, stuff"
"It's chill, I am probably not going to find anything ba-" benny started before he stopped midsentence
"damn it, this is why I didn't tell you"
"Yeah, I kinda wish I didn't read it, you know what we got what we came here for, let's just go," Benny said as he tossed the Journal back at Ethan and left
Ethan was disappointed that Benny got mad, he and Benny walked toward the entrance of the school, once they were at the entrance, Benny tried to open the door but couldn't
"It's locked," Benny said
"Are you sure?" Ethan said
"Yeah, trust me I don't want me to be stuck in here with someone like you," Benny said annoyed
Ethan tried each key they found in principal hick's desk drawers, but none of those worked.
"We are locked in here," Ethan said
"Oh, great, I'm stuck in here with you," Benny said
"What the hell is wrong with you? I knew you don't feel the same way about me that I feel about you, I wasn't expecting you to act like this" Ethan said upset"
"Feel the same? what are you talking about?"
"You read my journal you know I have a crush on you"
"You do?" Benny asked genuinely surprised
"Yeah, and you know that, that's why you got upset when you read my journal"
"That's not why. I didn't even read that in your journal"
"Then why are you upset?"
"Cause you went to see Galaxy wars without me"
"Oh, That," Ethan said
"Yeah, we planned on watching it together," Benny said hurt
"I am so sorry, my parent's made me take my cousin to the movie, cause he wanted to see it"
"Oh, so you were forced to?"
"Yeah"
"Oh, then that's okay, I mean if your parents told you to do it, you couldn't disobey them," Benny said no longer being annoyed
"Good"
The two of them sat down and just looked at each other in an awkward silence
"So... you know I have a crush on you," Ethan said after a few minutes.
"Yeah, I do"
"You...don't feel the same way about me do you?"
"I feel the same way, but with the whole Sarah thing, it's awkward"
"I uhh actually don't have a crush on Sarah"
"You don't?"
"I mean I used to, but as my crush on you grew, my crush on her weakened until I realized I didn't have feelings for her anymore"
"Oh, then do you want to go on a date sometime," Benny asked hopefully
"I would love to benny," Ethan said smiling.
"Good, we still need to get out of here, I don't wanna have to sleep here."
"But it's locked, how are we going to get out, do you have some kind of spell to open it?"
"Weirdly enough, no, however, I can cast a spell to turn the door into something else, but if something happens and the spell to put it back doesn't work"
"yeah, I see what you mean,
"So what do we do now?"
"We could go on that date"
"you want our first date to be in our high school?" Benny laughed.
"Yeah, I guess not, we can just hang out"
They spent the next few hours wasting time, reading comics, goofing around and just doing anything they can to pass the time
"God, I'm bored we did everything, what time is it?"Benny Complained.
"There is a clock there," Ethan said pointing at a Wall above the Doors to the cafeteria
"I can't read those clocks"
"You...Can't read Analog clocks?" Ethan asked
"No, I always had a digital clock so I never really learned"
"Okay, Well it is Almost midnight, its 11:50 pm"
"I think we should to go sleep"
"Yeah, we can't stay up too late hopefully a teacher or someone will open the door and let us out in the morning"
Wait where are we sleeping, its not like schools have beds"
"I mean i guess we would have to sleep on the floor"
"Yeah, lets just see if we can find anything we can use as a pillow and blanket"
The two of them spent the next 20 minutes looking they found nothing to use as a blanket but found some Pillows in the vice principals office
"Why did vice principal stern have these pillows? Ethan asked
"Appearently he has back problems and he uses the pillows when sitting in his chair"
"Alright well lets go sleep in the gym"
They went to the gym and laid down near each other, they put the pillows down and laid their heads on their pillows qnd went to sleep Ethan was tossing and turning in his sleep "Eth, go to sleep already" Benny said I can't sleep, im cold" "Come here, lets cuddle and get you warm"
Ethan and Benny cuddled and finally Ethan fell asleep
