Hey Bethaners!
I'm sorry for no updating my other stories. And I will. Really.
To excuse myself,
I wrote a one-shot about Bethan ( nooooo, seriously ? :P ) and it's…
Sad.
Yeah, i felt like it.
This is a song fic, including the song "forever and always" by parachute.
I changed the lyrics to fit, since, you know, they're gay.
And they are eighteen in this.
He's sitting at the table
The hours get later
He was supposed to be here
He's sure he would have called
He waits a little longer
There's no one in the driveway
No one's said they've seen him
Why is something wrong?
He looks back to the window
And suddenly the phone rings
A voice says something happened
And He should come right now
Ethan Morgan played with the hem of his shirt while waiting for his boyfriend, Benny Weir. They had been dating for almost three years.
He looks at the clock and sighs. Benny was already half an hour late. Normally Benny would've called, but he still didn't. Ethan was getting nervous. He called Benny's grandma.
She picked up at the first ring, like always.
- Hello?
- Hi Grandma Weir, this is Ethan.
- Oh, hello Ethan, how are you?
- Fine, thanks. Uh, I was wondering…. Is Benny here?
- No, he left an hour ago, saying he was going to get you a surprise… Why?
- Oh, no reason, thanks anyway.
- You're welcome honey! And congratulations again!
- Thanks, bye!
And with that, he hung up. He knitted his eyebrows together, growing more and more worried. But maybe the surprise was taking too long, he should just wait a little bit longer.
Suddenly the phone rang again. He picked up and heard a feminine voice.
- Hello, Ethan Morgan?
- Yes, who is this? He asked the voice.
- I'm Natalia from White Chapel Hospital. Benny was in a car accident earlier today, and you are the first person on his speed dial. Could you please come over so we can talk about what happened?
Ethan's jaw dropped.
His mind goes to December
He thinks of when he asked him
He bent down on his knee first
And he said
I want you forever
Forever and always
Through the good
And the bad
And the ugly
We'll grow old together
Forever and always
He hung up the phone and grabbed his car keys.
He closed the door in a hurry, blinking back tears.
As he started his black BMW, his mind wandered off to March of three years ago, when it all began.
Ethan was sick for a week, imprisoned in his room. Benny stayed with him for comfort.
Ethan was so sleepy, he started mumbling words when Benny held him. Things like "Benny, kiss me… I love you… Benny…"
And Benny couldn't help himself, he kissed Ethan.
Ethan opened his eyes, startled to find his true love kissing him. They kissed for a good minute before they revealed their feelings. And after that, they stayed sick together one more week.
Ethan smiled at the memory.
Then, he thought of last December, when Benny took Ethan to a five star restaurant, and bent down on his knee, declaring the sweetest marriage proposal ever.
Ethan squealed. Like a fan-girl. But it didn't matter, he was engaged to the perfect boy.
He pulls up to the entrance
He walks right to the front desk
They lead him down a million halls,
A maze that's never ending
Finally, the hospital came into view. He parked his car and ran to the front desk, pushing the double doors and rushing past all the wheelchairs. He could smell all the medicine. The nurse informed him that Benny Weir was in room 1605, Ethan was already running to the elevator.
They talk about what happened,
but He can barely hear them
He tries to keep a straight face
After a minute of running, he sees room 1605. Two nurses holding clipboards were shaking their head, while one of them was closing the door. He rushed right past them, started to open the door, but a nurse blocked him.
- You're Ethan, right? We've been expecting you.
- How do you know?
- Benny just continues to say you name over and over again. Anyways, said the nurse, seeing how eagerly Ethan wanted to enter the room, Benny was in a car accident. He broke his leg and he seems to have a problem with his lungs…
Ethan blinked back tears, not listening to a thing she was saying. He just nodded and entered the room.
As He walks into the room
He sits by his bedside,
Holds his hand too tight
- Ethan? Whispered Benny, seeing the door opening.
- Yes Benny, don't worry I'm here! Ethan answered, rushing to take his hand.
Ethan kissed Benny.
They talk about the kids
They're gonna have
And the good life
The house on the hillside
Where they would stay
Stay there forever
Forever and always
Through the good
And the bad
And the ugly
We'll grow old together
But always remember
Whether rich or for poor or for better
We'll still love each other
Forever and always
- Benny don't worry you're going to get through this.
- I don't know Ethan…
- Shhh don't be negative, you'll see we'll have a great life together. We'll live in the house on the hillside, like you always wanted. We'll live with our two boys and our 2 girls, Said Ethan, reassuring him.
Benny chuckled.
- And we'll live with Coco too.
- Who's Coco? Asked Ethan.
- Our dog.
It was Ethan's turn to laugh.
- Sure Benny. We'll live happily ever after, just like in a fairytale.
Then he gets an idea
And calls in the nurses
Brings up the chaplain
And he says a couple verses
He borrows some rings
From the couple next door
Ethan gasped. He smiled to Benny and said he'll be right back. He texts Rory, Sarah and Erica about what he was going to do, and they appeared in a flash right on front of him. They smiled at him.
He calls in the nurses, and runs to the church right in front of the hospital.
He sees the chaplain, and begs him to follow him.
The chaplain agrees, and when he opens the door to see the nurses, and Benny in the bed, surprised, he smiled.
Suddenly Ethan comes in with two rings.
- The couple next door is very nice.
Everybody understood and laughed.
As Ethan got into place, the chaplain began:
- Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to join …
- Benny Weir and Ethan Morgan, said Ethan.
- Benny Weir and Ethan Morgan, repeated the chaplain.
Everybody's laughing
As the tears fall on the floor
He looks into his eyes
And He says
I want you forever
Forever and always
Through the good
and the bad
and the ugly
We'll grow old together
But always remember
Whether happy or
sad or
whatever
We still love each other
Forever and always
Forever and always
Forever and always
Ethan says the vows he rehearsed for a while now. Staring into Benny's eyes, he says:
- Benny, I love you. You're not only my fiancé and my boyfriend, but you're my best friend too. I've known you my whole life, you've helped me through difficult times. I love the way you make me feel, the way you make me laugh…
He finishes the vows,
But the beeps are getting too slow
His voice is almost too low
As he says
Ethan finished his vows and looked at Benny.
He was pale, the machine next to him translated that his heartbeats were getting low.
Benny started, his voice barely audible:
I love you forever
Forever and always
Please just remember
even if I'm not there
I'll always love you
forever and always
- Ethan, I love you too. My childhood was hard because of my parents, but you helped me get through it. That's when I knew we were going to get married. I love you so much, I always have and I always will.
His voice became lower and lower.
Tears were streaming down Ethan's face.
Sarah and Erica started tearing up.
Rory looked at them sadly.
The chaplain continued talking, but before he finished,
Benny's heartbeat stopped.
That was just…. Sad. Well I might a chapter where Benny gets better, maybe with another song…. But that might just ruin this chapter.
Please send me your ideas, should I leave it like that or continue?
Thanks for reading :)
