Lucy's POV

"Smell what?" Said Bently, leaning in a little more.

I stood up. As I did, my hand brushed his, sending electricity through my body, making me gasp.

I looked at Bentley, waiting for an explanation. He looked like he wanted to say something but he didn't.

"Bently, it smells like fire" I said.

"I really hope this isn't the Greysons doing" he said, standing up and speedily walking to the house.

I followed him into the house to the kitchen to be filled with light smoke.

It looked like someone was trying to make scrambled eggs but left them on too long.

The smoke started to fill up the other rooms, causing people to cough. Soon everyone was exiting the house. Once everyone was out, it left me, Bently, Camilla, a pretty older woman and a sleeping Greyson.

The older woman ran to the stove and placed the burning pan in the sink.

Then Bently walked over to Greyson who was drooling on the floor. He got real close to Greyson's ear, whispered something, then screamed "Greyson!"

Greyson bolted right up and stood straight. He almost looked like a soldier.

"Did you try to cook eggs again?" Asked Bently.

Greyson's face then lit up.

"That reminds me! I have to check the eggs." He said, running to the stove. He turned when he saw they weren't there.

"Who ate my eggs?" He slurred sadly.

"No one ate them, you dingus, you burned them, making everyone cough and leave the party." Said Camilla, rolling her eyes.

"Oh." He said, almost falling, but Bently caught him, I don't know how, since he was just on the other side of the room. Maybe he just has quick reflexes.

"Camilla, take him to his room," Bentley said, guiding Greyson to her.

"Ben, what can I do? You expect me to carry him with this healing ankle?" She said, pointing to her leg.

"Camilla." Bentley growled, making Camilla jump up and grab Greyson.

Greyson mumbled something into Camilla's ear, making her pissed, "If only you weren't drunk I would kick your ass!" She said, disappearing with him.

Then, suddenly, the basement door opened to reveal Kendra, Ashton, Loren, Aaron, Loren's best friend Riley, and two of Aaron's friends.

"Whoa what happened to the party?" Asked Riley,

"It ended about five minutes ago." Said the older woman, who I forgot who was there.

"Oh, sorry Ms. Kings, well just excuse ourselves." Said Riley, giving a nervous smile before turning away. The two guys followed her out, but Loren and Aaron stayed.

"Bentley! I didn't even know you were here!" Squealed Loren.

Her voice sounds like nails on a chalk board, and Bently must think the same as his face.

"Well, I live here," he said blandly.

"Well duh silly I knew that." She said, walking towards him. She slipped a little, falling into Bentley's arms.

I let out a big sigh of annoyance. I did not like her touching him.

Wait, what? Why should I care? I just met the guy.

When I looked back at the two, Loren was giving me a death glare, and Bently was giving me a smirk.

I rolled my eyes and walked over to Ashton, Kendra and Aaron.

"Hey, you never came down with our drinks." Said Aaron, playing, punching my shoulder.

"Yeah, I was distracted." I replied, which was followed by a grunt, knowing it was coming from Bentley.

"Well, I'm really bummed we couldn't hang out as much. Maybe we can catch dinner sometime." He said, giving me a hopeful smile.

"Yeah, sure just let me know." I said, getting a smile.

"Aaron, can you take me home please. I'm tired and my feet hurt." Whined a drunk Loren. I think we have possessiveness issues. First it was the parking spot, then she's all over Bentley. Now Aaron?

"Yeah sure." Said Aaron, throwing her over his shoulder.

She waved goodbye to everyone but gave me a death glare.

"Guess she's not a fan of yours, huh?" Chuckled Ashton.

"I guess not." I said, shrugging my shoulders.

"Kids, I'm not cleaning this up, you don't have to do it now, but by three o'clock this house needs to be spotless." Said Ms. Kings walked out the kitchen.

I stepped back to look at the house to see it was trashed. Red soil cups were everywhere, paper napkins and plates were crumbled all over the floor.

"We could stay and help clean up if you want?" Offered a yawning Kendra.

"No, you guys should get home. It's almost 2." said Ashton quietly.

"Yeah, maybe we should get going." Said Kendra, taking out her car keys. She then gave us a confused expression.

"I feel like I'm missing something." She said, slowly turning around.

We watched her turning, when she suddenly stopped and her eyes went wide.

"Oh my god, where's Skipper?" She breathed in.

She then started running through the house screaming her sister's name. Both Ashton and I followed her, but then I turned to see Bentley just standing.

there watching me. "Are you going to help us look for her?" I asked, walking towards him.

Once I made it in front of him, he quickly walked passed me not saying a word.

"Is that a yes or no?" I asked, following him,

"You said you weren't seeing anyone." He said, continuing walking.

Huh?

"I'm not?" I said, confused. "Is this about Aaron? I don't like him if that's what you're implying."

He didn't say anything but grunted.

"Bentley." I said, trying to catch up to him. He then took a sharp turn into a dark room.

I followed him in there, saying his name louder.

"Bentl-" I began until he clamped his hand over my mouth and turned, me so I was facing him.

I went to yell, until I saw the room.

It was a giant room that had a big curtain hanging up with a projector playing a movie. In front of the curtains were two large couches and 10 love seats.

And asleep on one of the couches was Blake with Skipper sleeping on his shoulder.

I then relaxed and let out a muffled awh, because Bentley still had his hand on my mouth.

"Did you find her?" Asked a nervous Kendra, walking into the room. She calmed down when she saw the skipper sleeping.

She let out a deep breath. "Oh thank god, she's okay. My parents would have killed me if anything happened to her." She said, looking at the two, then she started to walk over and tap on Skippers tapped shoulder,

Finally, Bentley released me and took a step forward.

"You should let them sleep, you guys are welcome to stay the night if you'd like." He said, looking from Kendra to me.

I looked at Kendra, seeing how her riding was. She thought for a second then nodded.

"But we like sleeping in here so I can keep an eye on these two," She said, nodding her head at Blake and Skipper.

"Fair enough." He said, backing up and leaving the room.

What was his problem? One minute he was really sweet and then, like nothing, he was a douche.

1 looked at Kendra, who was staring at me with her eyes raised.

I just shrugged and made my way to one of the love seats.

I looked over to Kendra who was getting onto the coach, when a shadow appeared, blocking my view of her.

"What do you guys want to watch?" Said the shadow, who I soon recognized as Ashton.

"Can we watch Disney? I'm really in the mood for Disney." Said Kendra, yawning.

Ashton then chuckled, grabbing the remote and sat next to Kendra.

I tried to get myself comfortable in the comfy love seat but I couldnt, and I don't know why.

Ashton finally put Disney and guess what was on?

Beauty and The Beast! My favorite movie.

I really wanted to watch it, but I was so tired.

I let my tired eyes watch the colorful characters sing while I twisted and turned trying to get comfortable, plus I was shivering from the leather seat.

Then, suddenly, a dark figure was standing in front of me. I looked up to see Bentley staring down at me.

"What?" I said, closing my eyes.

Suddenly, I felt strong arms lifting up, bridal style, then falling back down on the seat.

"What are you doing?" I shrieked.

"Shh, your going to wake everyone, and you looked uncomfortable." he said, resting his hands on the arm chair, with me just casually sitting on his lap.

(Hint sarcasm)

"Well, what's comfortable with being on top of a guy I just met?"

"Well, for one, he's pretty attractive, and two, you can use me as warmth." He said with a wink.

"One minute you're really sweet, then you act pissed when another guy talks to me, now your trying to flirt? Yeah no." I said pushing myself up. I tried to walk away, when I was pulled back to Bentley, but to his side. "I know I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done that. You didn't do anything wrong,", he said, staring into my eyes.

I looked into his eyes, then shivered.

He must have felt me shaking because he slipped his hoodie over his head, which, by the way, lifted his t-shirt underneath, revealing his perfectly toned abs, and slipped it over my head.

I blushed as he did it, but I doubt he saw it because it was dark.

"Then why'd you do it?" I asked, playing with the strings of the sweatshirt. He sighed, then let his head fall to his shoulder. I sat there waiting for him to see him but he never did. So I took the chance to put some space between us and tuck my feet underneath me.

I slowly felt my eyelids drop and then the sound around me started to fade.

Then I felt someone switch my body so my feet were draped over them and my head was lying on their chest.

I let out a little gasp as I felt electricity flow through my body when me and the person touched, only meaning that I was touching Bentley,

Too tired and comfortable to protest, I snuggled into his arms to inhale his scent. He smelled like sweet vanilla and cinnamon rolls. My favorite.

Before I was actually in a deep sleep, Bently whispered something in my ear.

"Mine"

And for some reason, I let out a sigh in agreement.
