Dear Benjamin Novels & Stories

" I nod, accepting his explanation which seems sincere "What is your name?" I ask "Oh, I'm Benjamin– I know it's quite a mouthful so just call me Ben! That's what my family calls me, you see. I don't..." "Are you always this chatty, Benjamin!" Henrik asks with a frown, cutting him off mid-sentence. He chuckles and shakes his head, "No, of course not! Never! This is me just trying to be friendly. Striving to get you guys to like me. I just feel it deep in my bones that the four of us are soon going to be best of friends! Inseparable, you get my drift..."

I greet, pecking Charles on the lips "The girls run off without me, so I'm stuck with you two" "So we're your second option?" Benjamin asks, pouting. "I thought I was more important than that Eli. I thought I held such an important place in your heart" "You do" I laugh "And Eli?" "What I'll be calling you from now on" "That sounds masculine, but I'm not complaining" "You shouldn't" he says and I purse my lips, zipping it and throwing the imaginary key away. The Baby monitor beeps, and Benjamin places his half drunk beer down on the counter. "I guess the baby is awake. I have to get to him before Vanessa does. She's such a protective mother"

Then, with a teasing lilt, he added, “But if you get there safely, make sure to send me a detailed report on how you avoided all disasters along the way.” “Goodbye, Ryan,” I said, still chuckling as I ended the call before he could drag me into another ridiculous scenario. The next minute, another number flashed on my screen—a familiar one. Benjamin. My stomach twisted as I answered. “Hello?” “Olivia. It’s me, Benjamin.” “Oh, Ben. How’re you doing?” I asked, surprised to hear from him. “Well, knowing you’re doing well and that I’m following you to the Trench Bar makes me feel fine.”

Benjamin simply grabbed the papers, his eyes cutting across the room to lock onto mine. "Get up, Jane," Benjamin whispered. "The soft life is officially dead. It's time to run."

Rachel had not replied much then, but the words stayed with her longer than she expected. When she finally got up, she moved around the house quietly. Benjamín was already awake in the living room. He was sitting more comfortably now than before, his body showing clear signs of recovery, even though he was still not fully strong. “Good morning, Miss” Benjamin said lightly. “Huh?” Rachel smirked “Problem?” He asked “No, sir. Thank you. Good morning.” She gave the sarcastic remark. “I think I love being jobless because I can't imagine the stress of going to work every morning.” He said

Please, stop drinking for the sake of your health. Thank you for introducing me to the warm feeling of love. Marry the woman you truly love—just one. I’ll be happy for you both. Bonita --- The weight of awareness slammed into Benjamin, making him leap out of bed. He scanned the room for the suit mentioned in the letter, then approached it. The wedding suit, draped over the back of a chair, seemed to mock him. Instead of lashing out, Benjamin reached out to touch the fabric, his heart aching.

Sir Benjamin who was ignored because of the snack: "...." "Cough!" A loud cough interrupted our focused eating. We looked at the source. Sir Benjamin was standing with a clenched fist over his mouth. When he finally got our attention, he began his introduction monologue. Ah damn. I forgot that we have a new person in the group. This is Sir Benjamin's time to shine. "The two ladies here already know my excellence. But it is the first time for this Sir. I am Sir Benjamin, the renowned eccentric grim reaper. May I know your name, gentleman?"

“I wanted to thank you for bringing me into your pack and nursing me back to good health. I don’t know how to repay your kindness and if you want me to do anything, I will—“ “You need to take it easy on yourself.” He chuckled. “You don’t have to do anything and I’m not going to hold you to that. We haven’t been properly introduced yet.” “Are you sure about that?” I asked. I wasn’t used to good deeds going unpaid for and it was an eerie feeling. I watched in silence as he held out his hands towards me. “My name’s Benjamin, it’s a pleasure to finally meet you. I’ve been waiting for you to wake up.”

I felt disgusted by the scene and somehow Benjamin noticed the type of expression on my face, however; he doesn't do anything about it. "Dad, Can I go out and meet with my friends?".. All of a sudden, Benjamin asked to meet up with his friends, and he didn't even dare look at me as he disappeared from my eyes.. Preparations were undergoing for the machine to be completed, and I with the two girls brought in by the hunters looked at each other in our cages.. "Shouldn't we do anything?".. The girl putting on white dress asked me.. " Yeah, I cannot die,".

The living room opened onto a small terrace where the afternoon breeze stirred the wind chimes. For the first time in what felt like forever… I could breathe. As I unpacked the last of my things, something caught my eye. A folded envelope rested on the bedside table. There was no name on the front. Curious, I opened it. Inside was a single handwritten note. “You don't have to forgive me. You don't have to speak to me. You don't even have to see me. Just focus on getting stronger. I'll keep every promise I made today.” — Zayn.
