charloft drabbles: Intoxicated!Ben

[mini_dean]

"Shh..." Ben held his finger to his lip, looking at the offensive lamp that had dared to trip him. No, someone had decided to rearrange all the furniture on him while he had been away at the bonfire party at the river.

The soon-to-be Senior Class had gathered for a night of music, swimming, grilling and beer. However, Ben hadn't exactly mentioned that last piece to his parents.

Now did he warn them that he would be stumbling in at two in the morning.

The lights flipped on and blinded him a moment, and then he was able to make out his father on the stairs, shotgun aimed at home. His mother was only a few feet behind him, scowling.

"Awww shit..."

Ben was also "watching" a movie, but safe across the street in Sarah's basement where her parents had a virtual party hangout. Sarah was laying beside him, resting after a small make-out session. Catching their breath at the moment, so to speak.

There was a vibration in his pants, making Sarah jump as Ben reached for his phone and flipped it open to read the text message.

"Your parents finally trying to track you down?" She asked, trying to read over his shoulder.

"Wouldn't answer if they did. It's just Alec."

"He'll tell your parents you're here."

"I know that." Ben pondered on writing back, but he wasn't mad at his brother, and Alec could be a bit emotional at times. No need to make him think that Ben was mad at him too.

Yeah. was his quick response that he sent.

Alec sagged when he got a prompt reply. He hadn't realized he was quite that wound up until he wasn't any more. He thought for a long minute before tapping in another message. Asking where he was would end the conversation. Alec didn't like keeping secrets and Ben knew it, At least not real secrets. So everything had to be Mom and Dad safe. Coming home tonight? If he answered that at least everyone would be able to sleep. Even if Ben wasn't coming home it meant he had some sort of plan.

Maybe.

"Maybe?" Sarah slapped his chest as Ben sent the message. "You promised me you'd stay here for the weekend with me. Really make your folks miss you before going back."

"Babe, I'm across the street. They'll see me eventually."

"Not if I keep you tucked away," Sarah smirked, leaning down to kiss him.

"Maybe?" There was a pause as he stared at the phone. "Jackass." But still he'd take it.

Dean glanced over at Alec at the statement, before raising an eyebrow. "That Ben?"

[smart-alec494.livejournal.com]

"Yeah." He looked up at his parents. "He's okay. Or whatever."

He looked back down at his phone and tapped at it again. Let me know?

[mini_dean]

Ben growled as the phone vibrated again as Sarah was trying to remove his tonsils.

"Forget about it..."

"Give me a sec."

Sure. busy now. he typed, then put the phone on the floor by the couch and went back to his girlfriend.

[hasperkynipples]

Dean knew that from the tone, Ben wasn't exactly treating his brother well either, so he just let it go, leaning back against the couch and continuing to watch the movie again.

[smart-alec494.livejournal.com]

Alec wouldn't say Ben was treating him badly. He was just miffed at the lack of definative answer. Especially since 'busy' seemed a lot like 'not coming home tonight'. "He says he's safe." He shrugged.

[hasperkynipples]

"That's good," Dean nodded. Ben would know better than to lie about something like that -- at least, he thought he would.

[smart-alec494.livejournal.com]

There was a pause. "At least he'll talk to me." Because yeah, he'd been worried. 'Before Dad' was also 'Before Alec'.

[hasperkynipples]

"Yeah," Dean nodded. "He'll come around, it's just -- gonna take a little time."
