No Flash in the Pan (by Cowgirl8)

Summary: This is a story that I wrote for my English class. My teacher really liked it. It’s about the boys while Ben is out of Town. There is foreshadowing. And we weren’t supposed to have blood and Gore so nothing gruesome in this story. Any spelling or grammar errors are my fault.

Rated: K+ (1,545 words)
