Gisele and Bennett.

Daydreaming: Dark Dark Dark

As Bennett stepped out of the shower he looked down and grinned. Rictus Erectus was looking mighty fine tonight. A bright red caught his eye and he averted his gaze to the mirror.

He had to call Logan. And how was he going to get the lipstick off? Maybe he'd just nick Rey's makeup wipes.

Bennett sprinted out of the bathroom but quickly came back for a towel. Who knew if the intruder was still here? You had to earn the Rictus. No free shows.

"Hey man!" Upon hearing Logan's voice, Bennett immediately bounded into what had happened only to be interrupted by "-sike! Man I got you good didn't I...well yeah, I'm not available obviously. Leave your message and if I like you I'll call your ass back."

Bennett sighed in defeat, about to throw his phone on his bed when he saw a missed call from Gisele. Accompanied with a text that said:

SOS. Call back ASAP.

Gisele picked up on the second ring. "Took you long enough." She snapped.

"The bitch strikes again." Bennett replied, checking out his pecs in the mirror.

Maybe he could go over to her and get some action.

There was a short intake of breath as if she was going to tell him off, but when she spoke, her voice was barely above a whisper.

"I got a note. Someone has a photo of me."

Bennett smirked. "I got many photos of you babe." He couldn't help himself, he was in a mood.

As predicted, Gisele scoffed. "Keep it in your pants. No you idiot, someone has a bad photo of me."

Bennett racked his brain for any photos. Did he share any of her nudes? He knew the boys had come around and seen them...

"The photo of that night."

Gisele sighed when Bennett responded with silence. "The car, Bennett."

It clicked. "Shit! How did anyone get a photo? Where did you find it?"

Maybe he couldn't think straight because there was only one thing on his mind right now: sex.

"My room. Just on top of my stuff. How did they even get in there?" Gisele's voice raised two octaves.

"Someone wrote on my mirror while I was in the shower. They know about Rayna." Bennett told her.

"I'm scared Ben."

"I'm coming over. Stay put okay? Grab a knife. Hold tight babe." Bennett said, grabbing his keys and heading towards the front door.

Before he could however, his mother stepped in front of him.

"Where are you going?" She asked, her arms crossed.

"Gisele's. She's home alone and needs company." His mother loved Gisele. Diane narrowed her eyes at him and looked him over.

"In a towel?"

"Yeah-" Bennett looked down at the white towel wrapped around his waist and mentally face palmed.

"Shit. I need clothes." He ran back to his room and pulled on anything he could find.

Breaking into Gisele's house was like playing football for Bennett. He had done it numerous times before when he was in a 'mood'. She was home alone but it was only natural for him to climb the tree up to her balcony.

When he got there, Gisele was taking off her bra and getting into her pyjamas. Bennett tapped on the window door and startled her.

"You couldn't use the front door." She said, letting him in and shutting the door quickly.

"Too hard." Bennett replied as he draped himself over her sofa.

"And yet you can climb a tree." Bennett shrugged.

He watched as Gisele busied herself around her room, moving things.

"Where's the letter and photo?"

By three am, the pair had a list of suspects.

"I'm telling you, Carmen was drunk that night. She couldn't remember anything. Cross her off the list."

"What list? She's our only suspect Gi."

Bennett glanced over at Gisele. He wasn't sure whether the dimmed lights were good lighting that accentuated her features or if it was her bare face he hadn't seen in a long time but his girlfriend had never looked more beautiful than she did at this moment. Or maybe it was that he was in that mood.

She caught him gazing and frowned.

"What? You're freaking me out, I really don't need to be more freaked out than I already am."

Bennett moved closer towards her and tucked a stray piece of hair behind her ear.

"I like this. We haven't hung out properly in a while. I missed this."

Gisele met his gaze. "Yeah..." She trailed off mid sentence as Bennett leaned in to kiss her.

The list of suspects remained untouched for the rest of the night.
