Bennett xoxo

Status: Right now? My life is perfect. I have amazing friends who I consider family, a beautiful home and nothing can ruin that.

"Well, I believe it does Old One" he stated, smirking as he gulped the rest of his drink, looking into his wallet, seeing how much he had. He decided against more, shoving it back into his pocket. "Ew!" he whined, jumping away, "That was disgusting!". He couldn’t help but giggle though, "I will respect every single one of them, apart from you" he said, trying to keep a straight face but ended with his arms wrapped around her, apologizing for being rude. "If I’m feeling happy I’ll knock you out, if I’m angry then you’ll just have to suffer my finger pulling it out" he mumbled, nodding at her, before turning away.

"You believe wrong, little one." Bennett smirked, signalling to the bar tender to bring over more drinks when she saw that Brennan checked his wallet. Laughing again when the boy apologized for something she found more hilarious than rude, Bennett simply accepted his apology. "Although I'll have to put you in the naughty corner for being rude," she teased before raising her eyebrows. "What makes you think that I won't have people to protect me now that I know your evil plans?" It was a mystery why the boy turned away to Bennett, but figuring it probably didn't mean much, she simply shifted handed the money to the bar tender who had silently crept up. With two beers in her hand, she smiled deviously. "I'm half-tempted to pour this down your back," the redhead joked.

"One year doesn’t give you the right to mock me" he pouted, nudging her ribs, "But I’ll let you call me cute because I like that". Brennan burst out into laughter, "I’m so stupid after I drink" he mumbled, smiling up at the girl, "Amsterdam sounds good. ‘s’where Augustus and Hazel-Grace did the naughty stuff". He covered his mouth as he giggled, as if he were a ten year old boy who had been the first to receive the talk from his father. "I’ll make sure he’s not alone! I look after him for you,  old  one” he promised. “I’ll poke your eyes out” he grinned, whining when she gained her glass again. With a cheeky smirk, he whispered, “I’ll think about it” 

[violetprotectorbennett-blog]

"I believe it does, Little One," Bennett giggled, nodding in agreement as he called his drinking personality stupid. Taking a sip, the redhead spat the drink out, almost choking as she began to laugh when Brennan bought The Fault In Our Stars scenes to her mind. "Respect your elders, little one. Make sure you do that," Bennett tapped the boys nose, nodding before she burst into giggles again. "How do you plan to poke my eye out, silly boy?" Raising an eyebrow, the teen simply raised her glass to her lips again, mocking the boy as she took a long sip. 

[violet-char]

"True." Charlie agrees with a nod. "Though there’s only so much you can forget. Now, what are you trying to forget?" 

[violetprotectorbennett-blog]

"I'm hoping I can forget it all," she murmered. "Well, I sort of have to leave... My dad's remarrying and relocating to Amsterdam, plus there's not really enough money for me to stay in Chicago without a job."

[violet-char]

Charlie raised a eyebrow as the girl rolled across the table, hiding her amusement behind her bottle of beer. “Can I ask why?”

[violetprotectorbennett-blog]

Bennett sighed. "Getting hammered means you don't remember whatever it is you're trying to forget." Picking up her own beer, the redhead took a sip.

[charmaineavrett]

Charmaine shrugs and once again tries for that smile that had failed before. This time it sticks and Charmaine can feel her cheek muscles working overtime. “Well it’s better than nothing,” she says, doing her best to not sound upset. “So let’s go drinking and make you forget why you’re leaving. It’ll be good.”

[violetprotectorbennett-blog]

It's aware to Bennett that Charmaine is forcing the smile, but decided not to bring it up. "Getting drunk sounds fantastic," the redhead grinned. "It'll be better than good," she laughed, taking a gulp from the open bottle of vodka.

[sethjen-eca-blog]

"Not lover boy yet.." he muttered, blushing slightly, "but I could never forget you. You’re my princess, my Bennett-Bear, my very best friend."

[violetprotectorbennett-blog]

"But there's a yet in there," Bennett smiled at the blushing boy. "And you're my best friend too, Batman, forever and always."

[charmaineavrett]

Charmaine knows that she’s trying to lighten the mood but she still can’t help but feel sad, a crushing weight in her prepared to make her heart fold in on itself. She tries for a smile, but ends up failing miserably, her lips shaky and useless to even lift a single corner of her lips. “It’s okay. As long as we spend some time before you leave. So wh- what do you want to do?”

[violetprotectorbennett-blog]

"I'm sorry," Bennett repeated the line she'd told everyone so far, it never really occurred to her just how many people she was hurting by leaving - not that she had much of  choice. "I catch my plane tonight so anything we can cram into the next few hours I'm down for." The redhead felt simply awful.

[lydiabtw]

Lydia could sense Bennett’s sadness, as if it wasn’t enough to only feel her own. She didn’t want Bennett to feel guilty about giving her the bad news, but it was also hard to conceal how it was affecting her. ”Okay,” she forced a curt nod and swallowed, terribly aware that there was nothing she could do and clueless on how to stomach it. “Amsterdam. That’s just so far.” It was as close to an intelligent sentence as she could get in her state.

[violetprotectorbennett-blog]

"Four thousand miles away..." Bennett softly uttered. At least saying 'four point three' was better than four thousand one hundred and three miles,' right? She found it hard to read Lydia, with the curt nod and short sentences, but it wasn't hard to tell that Lydia was just as sad as Bennett herself. "I'll visit..." her voice was quite, the words bouncing around in her head unable to find a sequence to escape her mouth in.

[lydiabtw]

Lydia’s heart sank. At least last time Bennett gave her the hope that she would find a way to come back. If she couldn’t grant her that, it changed everything. Her eyes went to the ground, the ‘i love you’ making it sting more despite it being well-intentioned. ”I love you, too.” She said it without hesitation, stomach churning. “But why are you leaving? Do you have to?”

[violetprotectorbennett-blog]

Smiling despite the bubbling nausea in her stomach, Bennett sighed. Of all the people she'd dread to tell she was leaving, Lydia had been the one to make her feel positively sick each time. "My dad's getting remarried," a small smile found it's way to the redhead's face. "We're moving to Amsterdam, and with the move and the marriage..." a pair of hazel eyes fixed themselves on the fingers playing at the bottom of their owner's skirt. "There isn't enough money for me to be here anymore."

[brennandavidsonx-deactivated201]

Brennan giggled at her bad acting, “You so totally are!” he countered, shaking his head, “I’m a cutie according to everyone here, and I can handle that well… Little one? Really?”. A loud whine escaped him as he crawled across her lap to get his drink back, practically cuddling it to his chest, “S’nice to meet you Bennett… I’ve heard a lot about you. Wait! Where’s the ducks?”

"Why, what’s happening?" he frowned, looking up at her with a sad smile, nodding, "I know, but he doesn’t and that’s pretty damn annoying". Covering his face with his hands, Brennan mumbled, "Shut up! You’ve only just met me, don’t piss me off! But yeah… kind of" he pouted, "You can do that if you want, a good spanking never hurt no one"

[violetprotectorbennett-blog]

"Indeed you are a cutie, Little One. And Indeed you are a Little One, since I am at least a year your senior, hence you're little." Bennett laughed, "It's nice to meet you to Little One. They're in a line, duh!" She told him, having already told him that. "My dad's remarrying and relocating, so I'm going to Amsterdam with him." Bennett shrugged, secretly she loved the idea of Amsterdam, but truthfully was sad about leaving her family at Violet. "I think he does know, I just reckon that he's scared about being alone, which I'll never let happen." Laughing again, the teen poked his pout. "And what are you going to do if I don't shut up, Little One?" After reclaiming her glass of beer and taking a sip from it, the teen almost choked. "I'll save that for if you upset Seth."

[brennandavidsonx-deactivated201]

"Don’t be mean! You bit me! I’m not a baby" he said with a pout, taking her beer away from her, "Not a stalker" he sang, chuckling as he took a drink from the other’s glass. His brows furrowed slightly as he sat up, "You’re leaving? B-but… You’re Bennett! You’re the one Seth wanted me to meet… You can’t leave him. He needs you" he whispered, his cheeks heating up, "I don’t think I’m taking care of him as such, just… just really falling hard for him"

[violetprotectorbennett-blog]

Bennett feigned shock. "I am not mean!" she protested, "you just can't handle the fact that you are what you are, Little One." Rolling her eyes, the redhead simply picked up Brennan's cup, taking a sip from it with a raised eyebrow. "Indeed I am Bennett," she giggled, "and now we have met! I'm getting all my ducks in order before I go." 

"It's not like a have a choice on leaving." A sigh escaped the female. "Seth doesn't need me. He just thinks he needs me. But in reality, he's doing pretty fine on his own." Holding back an 'aww', Bennett nudged her shoulder into Brennan. "Someone's got a crush on my best friend. Listen Mister, you treat him right, because I have enemies that will still give you a good spanking," the teen laughed again, almost dropping the glass as she shook.

[sethjen-eca-blog]

"You and me," he said to her, crying on her shoulder, "always. I love you, Bennett-Bear."

[violetprotectorbennett-blog]

"Always, Batman. I love you more, but now I really have to go," the redhead laid her forehead on Seth's, both against her shoulder. "Don't forget me in amongst all your friends and your new lover boy, okay?"

[brennandavidsonx-deactivated201]

Brennan whined, shoving her playfully, “That hurt!” he whined, taking a sip of his beer. “No, I’ve not been stalking you! I just saw you” he giggled, “I wish we had, but today can always be our starting point! Every weekend can be out drinking weekend, sounds good?” he said with a grin, “I’m Brennan by the way, you’ve probably not heard of me”

[violetprotectorbennett-blog]

"You big baby," Bennett laughed again. "You're such a stalker!" She nodded slowly, taking a gulp from the cup. "Sadly, I'm flying on from the nest," the girl giggled. "Off to stalk the birds as they head south for winter." The male's name clicked inside of Bennett's head. "So you're the person that's been taking care of my batman for me. I'm Bennett, knowing Sethy-poos, you probably have heard of me."

[brennandavidsonx-deactivated201]

Brennan giggled as he rest on her shoulder. He was beyond a lightweight and he was also beyond drunk. “You’re not a random girl” he laughed, poking her cheeks, “You go to VPA! I’ve seen you in the dorms but we’ve never spoke”

[violetprotectorbennett-blog]

Bennett laughed at the already drunk teen laying on her shoulder, playfully biting his finger when he poked her. "So you've been stalking me, I might have to report you to the president for that," the teen joked. "Why'd we never speak? If we had, we could have had a lot of beers by now," Bennett giggled, only tipsy, but evidently a lot less of a leightweight than the male.

[sethjen-eca-blog]

"I hope so…" He told her, "but it’s not goodbye, it’s just a— a ‘see you soon’. Okay? Because we will see each other soon, right? So it’s not goodbye. It’s never goodbye, princess." He gave her a warm smile, before hugging her tightly again. "I love you, Bennett-Bear.. Thank you for bring my best friend."

[violetprotectorbennett-blog]

"I know so." Bennett wrapped her arms around her best friend, "never goodbye," she murmered, her heart audibly ripping in two inside her own skull. "I'll always love you too, Sethy-Poo, and you really don't need to thank me, Seth, I'll always be your best friend, just like you'll always be mine." 

[brennandavidsonx-deactivated201]

Brennan smirked as he slid into the booth beside her, two beers in his hand. He slid one over to the other, “Well I’m totally going to help you”

[violetprotectorbennett-blog]

"Thank heavens," Bennett grinned, nodding appreciatively as she picked up the beer, raising it to her lips. "And why are you helping a random girl to get herself totally drunk?"

[sethjen-eca-blog]

"No— not really. Ok— okay good, at least I’ll see you from times to times," he said, wiping away his tears and smiling softly at her, "but you won’t really be gone, remember? You’ll be a phone call away. I’ll let you go as long as you’re happy but I— I am going to miss you more than anything in this world. I love you Bennett-Bear."

[violetprotectorbennett-blog]

"You'll see me more from time to time, Batman. Bennett returned his soft smile with one of her own small ones, grinning when Seth pulled her up on her own words. "Exactly," the redhead laughed lightly. "No no, there's not going to be any more 'I miss you's, because that means we have to say goodbye and I really don't want to say g-goodbye." Bennett swallowed the lump in her throat again. "I love you too, Batman, more than you'll ever realize."
