As Willow's plane touched down she decided to just walk home.
She her door opened, Willow was soon greated by her small cat. She picked it up lovingly and closed the door behind her.
Willow walked around her apartment, making sure her friend Dawn had taken good care of it.
After securing everything Willow sat on her bed and called up Dawn.
It was 3 am when Ben's flight touched down. The flight itself was tirering.
Ben stepped into the baggage room. After picking up his luggage, he got a cab and went home.
When Ben opened his door, he threw his bags in off to the side, tossed off his shoes and colapsed on his couch and fell asleep instantly.
When Dawn walked into Willow's appartment she saw Willow laying on the couch watching Much Music.
"Any good videos on?"
Willow looked up and smiled at Dawn, "You just missed the Dave Mathews Band. And you missed Bill in a seriously hot tight shirt.."
Dawn sat on the chair and laughed, "I don't think your in any right of gawking at Bill.."
"Oh shut up!" Willow said laughing, sticking her tounge out at Dawn, "I'm really sure Ben wouldn't bother gawking at all the females down there, and the weather too, they're all running around in sting bikini's.." she slowed down a bit as her mind drifted, "Ok, I shouldn't have told myself that! So how are you?"
"I'm fine. What about you? Do you have Ben stashed around here somewhere?"
"I'm ok myself. No, Ben's at home, or still on a plane.. We are going to get together later though. Gawd, both of us want this so bad, but I'm just so scared it's not going to work.."
"Ah, it's ok. If you two are really ment, it'll happen. So, what do you want to do?"
"You can answer some of my email," Willow suggested, pointing toward her computer, "You know, it's horrible. I have so much damn stupid email it isn't even funny!" Willow started naming off some of her more recent emails, "There's been, 'What does Darren wear to bed, underwear color?', 'How rough is Ben in bed?', 'Do Anna and Darren really share a one bedded room?'.. Gawd, it's horrible Dawn! All this damn crap I have, I'm just making this BIG main message and I'm sending it to anyone who sent me a BS question.."
Dawn read through a few emails then laughed out loud, "Boy, 'Just how close ARE Ben and Karl?' I didn't know there was gay rumours sorounding those two!"
Willow turned around to look at Dawn, "Neither did I!! You're joking!? That's an actual email?" She asked as she started to walk over to Dawn.
"Yup, it's real! Look!" Dawn said as she pointed to the screan.
"Here, get up. This damn one is getting a reply." Willow sat down and typed fastly telling the girl off. "I can't believe she had the nerve to ask me, the female who is like currently dating the guy, if him and his best friend are gay.."
Dawn cleared her throat, "Dare I mention Darren and Daniel's other halves?"
"Gawd, your right! The poor lasses.."
Willow clicked around a few more times before looking up at Dawn, "Cover me! I'm going in,"
It took a few seconds for Dawn to realize Willow was referring to her logging onto mIRC, "Oh Will, it's not THAT bad.."
As Willow joined the savage room she was greated by, 'Oh, look who decides to show up, my good friend Hecate![she's the greek goddess of darkness] What's brings you here today? What good news have you?'
Willow looked up at Dawn, "I hate this room.. I hate her! I'm going to get her ISP one day and get someone to fry her.."
< Hecate > Why hello to you too..

Willow turned to Dawn who was watching the screan, "See, look at that. Miss Hate My Guts finds out I know the guys and she's all nice to me..."
Ben woke up at 10 am to the sound of the telephone. He had to sit up and search for it before he found it to answer it.
It was one of his friends, Karl had told him they were back, wanted Ben to go out to a club with a bunch of them later that night. Ben smiled and told him he'd be there.
Ben stood up and walked to his kitchen to grab some breakfast.
He looked around the place suddenly, "Damn this place is a dump!" He then scoffed, "And it's not going to be me cleaning this either.."
He took out something tin foiled and unwrapped it to give it a smell. Ben then choked and threw the thing in the trash can, "Damn that was nasty.."
He pulled out another foiled object and carefully opened it, pizza. He walked over to the counter and placed the slices down. He then proceeded to pull the pepperoni off and toss it in the garbage.
Opening the microwave door he tossed the pizza in and reheated it while he went into his fridge again and pulled out a can of Pepsi.
Walking back into the living room he flipped his tv on and put the can on his coffee table. After flipping through the various stations he found some trashy talk show and left it there. Then, walking back to his kitchen, he grabbed his pizza out of the microwave and put it on a paper plate.
After getting bored of the 'females cheating on their boyfriends with another female' talk show, Ben suddenly remembered he owned an answering machine. After listening to a few of them, he lowered the volume of the tv and switched it to the news, he had to seem responsible, and he called his mum up.
"Hello,"
"Hi mum.."
"Oh, Benny! When did you get home?"
"Really early this morning, I've been sleeping, just sitting down to, uh, breakfast.."
Ben talked to his mum for a bit, answering all her questions before she mentioned some relatives that were 'just dieing' to see how he's grown.
"Um, well sure mum. I can head over noon, or within the hour.."
"Well, what about your place? It's just your cousin.."
Ben surveyed the damage at his place, "Well, you see mum, my place is..kind of, well, occupied.."
"Oh! You've got another one of your friends staying with you? That drummer boy?"
Ben tried not to laugh, "Karl you mean mum?"
"Yes, that's his name.."
"No, he's not here. None of my friends are crashing here.."
"Oh, it's..a..girl then?"
Ben sighed, 'I wish', Ben commented to himself. "No, it's not a girl mum. It's just, well, it's just that my place is a dump right now.. I need to get it cleaned before anyone human comes in.."
"Oh, but it's fine for you and your friends?"
Ben laughed, "I did say human mum! So when you'd you like me?"
His mum talked a little longer before letting him go.
Ben went and changed into something alittle more appopriate for meeting family, then stripped down again and went for a shower.
Ben finally emerged all dressed when he heard a pounding at the door.
He opened his door and looked at Karl, "Hey.."
"Hey, could I like stay here tonight?"
Ben looked at Karl, "Gawd, my mum was right.." He looked behind him, "Yeah sure.. What the hells wrong with your place?"
"I think I saw a rat or something," Karl shrugged, "I don't know, it was gross. I'll give it a few days to get it's ass out of my place before I go back.."
"A rat?!? Karl what the hell are you talking about? It was probably a damn sock you saw.."
"Why don't you think it could have been a rat?!"
Ben gave Karl a face, "Because rat's don't... Just because your place ain't THAT bad.."
"Well it was a rat..or a damn big mouse. It wasn't a sock stupid, it moved.."
"It ROLLED Karl.. It was a brown sock or somthing.. I've got to run. There's pizza out, and there's a few cans in the fridge.. You know, help yourself or whatever.."
Karl nodded and walked into the hallway, "It wasn't a sock.. I'll probably just call up some of the guys.."
"Hey! Don't call them here! I got to clean this place up.."
"No, I was going to get them out, maybe check out some pubs,"
"Hey, are you coming tonight? A bunch of us are going to a club.."
"It was my idea Ben!"
"Ok, well bye.." He looked at Karl again, "Shouldn't you have some clothes with you or something?"
Karl looked around, "Uh, yeah. I'll grab some later.. Bye"
