So they were going to sneak out. Alula had suggested they do so, and Benny decided to take her stargazing. He had done so a few times back in StormClan, and knew that the stars held an untold beauty. They painted patterns in the sky and allowed kids to connect the dots, making endless shapes in the night sky. Tonight was the night. Alu had gone and carefully shut down the alarms so they wouldn't be triggered when they left, good job on her part. Benny had been to nervous that he'd mess up to do the job. They had said their good nights, Benny went off to his bedroom early, and Alu would go in the direction of her bedroom but looped around and went to Benedict's instead. She had a creaky door so it was practical for her to go to her own room. So instead she hung out at Benny's for a while.
And that's the story of how they were there. They were on his bed, patiently waiting for the others to go to bed. Benny was admittedly tired, not used to staying up late, but was determined not to let it show. Now normally Benny was shyer when it came to showing Alu affection, things like hugging her or wrapping his arm around her, but here he didn't really have to fear Dean barging in on him. Dean never came to check on him anyways, not unless some sort of loud noise came from his room. So Benny would grow more bold, and attempt to slip his hand into hers so that they would be holding hands, also shifting so he was a bit closer and their shoulders touched. It wouldn't be too much longer now, now they were just waiting to make sure everyone was actually in their bedrooms and didn't just go to get something or something along those lines. So this would kind of be like a first date wouldn't it?

The alarms had been a pain. It took her forever too figure out how to shut them down and she had been shocked. Twice. By the same flipping button. But she had gotten them now, good job Alula. Well done, pat yourself on your back. Oh. How was it his bed was softer than hers? Or was that her imagination?
Suddenly, his fingers were entwined with hers. She accepted and gladly let him scoot closer, actually sliding towards him as the dip in the bed he made pulled her closer. She herself was tired, but not as much. Yet, she couldn't help but lay her head on his shoulder, giving a small tired sigh. She let her eyes close for a second, leaning against him now in her own tired defeat.

He felt her head lay on his shoulder, and he couldn't help but smile. Though she gave a sigh he wasn't so happy about. "You ok?" he asked, genuine concern in his voice. She didn't usually seem this... defeated. Tired. And if he had heard right then she was kind of hallucinating this guy who seemed really bad. He was messing with her mind or something. It didn't make much sense to Benedict but he figured it would explain a few things. And if she wasn't ok, well he would hope to help her. He was her boyfriend after all, he kind of felt it his duty to help her when she needed it. "It shouldn't be much longer." he said, leaning his own head a bit so that it rested on hers. She would be ok, he was sure. In the end, everyone would be ok. At the very least that was what the elders told during the BHR war, that they had lived through many wars and in the end people would get bored and everything would go back to normal, everyone would be ok in the end. That still applied here, he was sure.

At his question, Alula thought for a second. Was she really ok? She had gotten help and it only made things worse for her... was she ok? Did she need more help? No. She didn't. So, she was ok. "Yeah..." she half whispered. She had decided to tell him she was ok when she didn't even know if she was. He spoke again and it took all she had not to shake her head no. Maybe it would be over soon. Maybe not. She found comfort in him resting his head on hers and tightened her grip on his hand. Yeah. Dean couldn' say anything. This made her happy. Why would he take that away from her?

Benny felt her grip on his hand tightened, and he was perfectly happy with it. He was happy with her, happy being by her side and making her happy. Or at least he was pretty sure he was making her happy. Why would she still be with him if he wasn't? They would remain there in silence, but it was a comfortable silence. He didn't hear anything, he would seem that they were same to go. "You ready to go?" the male would ask, an excitement stirring in him at the idea of their first date. He seriously hoped they didn't get caught, but he was sure that they would have a good time. That would do Alu good right? She needed to relax, to have a good time. He also hoped that this Lucifer person left her alone, so that it would just be him and her. That wouldn't be too much to ask would it?

The house had gone silent. Finally. She stayed there for a while, almost half asleep. Then, she realized she had a date to attend. Sighing at last, she detached herself from his shoulder, briefly letting go of his hand despite not wanting too. It was soft, untouched by hard labor. It was warm, of course, considering it had blood pumping through it. Fresh blood at that. It wouldn't be tainted, like hers had. And, it felt nice between her fingers anyway. She pulled away finally, jumping off of the bed and half bouncing to the door. "Ready when you are," her voice trailed and she got brave and she gave a cheesy smile. "babe."

Their hands were quite different, anyone could tell, but neither of them would mind. His was more childish, hers more adultish. His were more innocent, hadn't seen the world's troubles or evils, hers had. She would pull out of the hand-holding and would go happily over to the door. The butterflies rose in his stomach and his heart would flutter when she called him babe. He wasn't quite sure what the term meant, but he knew it was special. Benny would also rise from the bed and walked over to his girlfriend, giving her a smile. "Well then let's go." he said, reaching out to the doorknob and gently swinging it open.

Alula gave a nod before leaving, silently sneaking down the hall. It was slightly dark, providing shadows for her to slip down. She preferred this type of travel any way. She ducked in andnoutnof the shadows despite the only one who could see her being her boyfriend. She slunk through the main area before bounding silently up the stairs. She stopped at the top, waiting for Benedict with a slight cocky smile.

He hadn't done any sneaking out before, so he would try to mimic Alu's actions. She seemed to know what she was doing. So he to would attempt to duck in and out of the shadows, but probably looked rather silly. He was actually pretty good at stepping lightly though. He soon followed Alu up the stairs, excitement coursing through him. He was hyped for this date, and it would show on his face. This would be his first date ever, if Lark knew what he was doing boy he would have not one, but two adults angry at him. Was it worth the risk? Definitely. He would meet her at the top of the stairs, flashing her a smile. Then he would hold his breath and reached for the doorknob, worry edging up in him that the alarm would go off and ruin their date. But the doorknob turned and he swung the door open without it going off, only letting out the breath he had been holding in when the door was all the way open and the alarm hadn't gone off. "Excited?" Benny asked. He definitely was. He could hardly wait until he was able to lay down with her under the stars, point out constellations he saw and made up on his own. Which, wouldn't be too far off actually.

Alula allowed him to move past her. When he went to open the door, she herself tensed, afraid she had failed to disarm the alarm. What if she hadn't shut them off? Would they run? Would they accept their fate? Who knew. However, the door swung open without a problem and she didn't realize she was holding her breath until then. He spoke and she nodded. "Definitely." She spoke. She didn't have to ask him; he was glowing with it.

It was practically glowing off of him- and it showed in every way possible. From the look in his eyes to the way he walked, from the tone of his voice to how he would attempt to grab Alu's hand to bring her fully out of the bunker. He had scouted out a spot in advance, and had made some preparations. Benny had set out a blanket because he knew sometimes the grass could get itchy, and had sneaked out some snacks and water in case one of them wanted a bit to eat or something to drink. He would of picked flowers for her, but he hadn't ever seen anyone do anything with flowers so he wouldn't know about what they could mean in a relationship. Benedict would take her over to the area he had this in, the smile on his face remaining where it was. No it wasn't anything to big, but he had to be careful what he snuck out and when as to not raise suspicions. Was it enough? He sure hoped so.
And as always, the unrequested and unwanted presence of Lucifer. But he had a reason of his own to be there, and the fact that she was on a date wouldn't stop him. "Aw look at him all bright and happy for this little date of yours. It really warms my heart, you know, this puppy love." he teased, poking Alula in the shoulder. Lucifer would be in a different standpoint on Alu having a boyfriend than Dean was, and would try to lean down to whisper in her ear "Go get 'em birdie, he won't know what hit him." he was still teasing, and knew it would possibly make her feel uncomfortable. He had to wonder if she was still ignoring him like Sam said to, but hey he'd find out soon enough. And in the meantime, why not bug her?

He had her hand and was dragging her with him. She stumbled, but regained it and trotted after him, trying to keep from falling on her face. He had done his part, she guessed. And she guessed correctly, stopping as she saw the blanket, snacks and water. "This is beautiful." She whispered before a familiar voice was in her ear and poking her shoulder. She bit the inside of her cheek and gave a glare at Lucifer, a glare that said 'no'. Her entire body language to him said 'no'. She was through with him, so she would ignore. Instead, taking a breath and getting ready to count stars with Benedict. She padded over to stand next to him, not even bothering to look up at the blueish sky that casted tints onto them, causing Benedict's blue eyes to become more noticeable. They were sparkling, even reflecting the stars and she couldn't help but get hopelessly lost in them. She studied every single different shade of blue, counting the stars she could see in his galaxy like eyes. A smile came to her lips and she forgot all about Lucifer, focusing on the one she loved right then and there.

Well that was harsh. All he was doing was spectating! And adding a comment or two but did it really matter? Apparently to her it did. She pretty much screamed no at him without using words. "Well someone's grumpy." Luci said, making a small pouty face to go with his words. "I'm not all that bad of a guy you know, why do you have to be so mean?" he pestered, simply saying it for the purpose of being annoying. Lucifer would poke her again, still attempting to get her attention.
Benedict had started looking up, trying to get a picture or two of what he would point out to Alu first. This would lead to the reflection the female saw in his eyes. He was unaware of the fact that the devil was currently messing with her mind, and would point upwards and ask "See that?" totally oblivious to the fact that she was lost in his eyes.

Oh how she wished she could murder him. Her gaze would drift from Benedict to the annoying asshole next to her. She shot him glare that said if he poked her again she would probably Bute him. However, Benedict's voice brought her back and she looked up. "Yeah." She answered him, slight tired edge on her voice.

Luci knew he was hitting a nerve with Alula, so that's why he continued with it. She shot him another glare to which he gave an innocent smile. "Looks like Benny boy found a thing." the male would continue, poking her again to tease her. This was fun, he needed to do the poking thing more often.
Poor Alula, she'd have to deal with two people at once, one unaware of the others presence so he kept on going without missing a beat. It ruined a date didn't it? However with Alu'a reply he would smile and say "Well if you connect it with these stars-" breaking off to move his hand in what was roughly the shape of a dog, "You can see a dog." Benedict finished, looking back at her to see her reaction.
