Ben 10 Porn Story: The 7 Things I Like About You Chapter 5

Belated Birthday

Ben

Outstretching a hand toward her cousins shoulder, Gwen Tennyson moved one hand down to her side, where it rested against her laptop bag as it was hung on her shoulder.

What? he snapped in reply, his back turned to her, causing her to withdraw her hand just short of it reaching his shoulder.

II am sorry that I called off your date with Kai tonight.

Called off? Ben snapped again, turning to glare back at his cousin. Called off?! You called nothing off, Gwen, you sabotaged not only my date with her, but my chance of ever being with her! PERIOD!

WELL AGAIN, SINCE YOU NEVER LISTEN, Gwen shouted back, her hands balling into fists at her sides. I. AM. SORRY!

IF YOU WERE REALLY SORRY, WELL, YOU WOULDNT HAVE DONE IT IN THE FIRST PLACE!

UGH! FINE!

Turning her back to Ben, Gwen crossed her arms across her chest, huffily breathing as she added in a low voice,

Next time Ill just let her rip your stupid heart out and stomp on it. Im beginning to believe that maybe you do deserve it after all.

Oh? Ben said, placing his hand on the redheads shoulder and spinning her back around to face him. Thats why I deserve huh? A broken heart?

Well you definitely dont deserve this, Gwen answered him, one of her hands thrusting down into her laptop bag, before pulling out a small box, before shoving it into Ben’s hands.

Happy belated birthday. Jerk.

Blinking, still with a hint of anger in his eyes, Ben glanced down, feeling surprised to suddenly find himself looking down at a box that contained nothing other than the latest Sumo Slammer game. Glancing back up, his mouth now slightly agape, the brown-haired young man shook his slightly as he watched his cousin huffily walk away from him.

Gwen, he said to her, hurrying up behind her and placing a hand on her shoulder as he spoke. Wait up.

Why? she asked, rolling her eyes even a she kept her back turned to him. So you can shout at me some more?

No. So I can do two things. One, well, to say thanks for this awesome, regardless of being belated, birthday gift. And two: why did you get it for me in the first place? I cant remember the last time youve ever done anything this

The word your thick and complicated mind is looking for is thoughtful, the auburn-haired girl said to him, sighing as she turned to face him once again.

Yeah–that, Ben agreed, glancing away, before looking back at her, his gaze meeting hers. So, why did you?

Emitting another sigh, Gwen crossed her arms across her chest before beginning to explain,

Well, honestly, ever since you told me about your plan to go out with Kai a week ago, Ive been wracking my mind trying to figure out two things. One was how to stop the date from happening, and well, it was successful, obviously.

Noticing a flare of anger sparking up in her cousins eyes at this confession, Gwen hurried on.

Well so yeah, I knew that me doing it would be a really jerky thing to do, but I still had to, so I also spent tons of time trying to think in advance of a way to make it up to you, and it was then that I remembered the fact that my, well, our, birthday was last week.

Giving her a curious, slightly confused look, Ben also folded his arms, the game still held tightly with one hand as he replied,

Go on

Well, I had gotten quite a lot of birthday cash. Just enough for me to get the new book I wanted–that one about the study of ancient magic and its origins–but, I also realized that there was probably a better use I could put it to. And though it still might not mean anything, or be enough, I figured, maybe using the money to at least get you this game you wanted, well, maybe itd be enough to make you forgive me for ruining your date.

Looking back at his cousin, Ben slowly unfolded his arms, before reaching out and pulling her into a hug, one that slightly caught her off-guard.

That was really awesome of you–to spend your own birthday money on me.

So she replied, returning the hug, a smile on her face. Does that mean you forgive me?

Eh Ben answered, slowly breaking the hug. It means I forgive you half-way.

Half-way? Gwen repeated, arching an eyebrow as she re-crossed her arms. And just what exactly will make you forgive me all the way?

Just one thing: you staying and playing a round or two of my awesome new game with me.

Sounds fun, the redhead agreed, her expression brightening.

You know what I like about you, Gwen? Ben questioned, glancing down at the back of the game box as he led his cousin toward his room, where his game system was located.

Whats that? she replied.

Still looking down at the box, Ben smiled slightly, and answered,

You know what Im into–you know I love games like these–and you dont think Im nerdy for playing them.

Smirking slightly, Gwen followed her cousin on into his bedroom, retorting,

Oh, I never said that I didnt think you were nerdy.
