    Summary

    As an orphan, Rey has a love-hate relationship with the cult-favourite children's book series called 'Being Ben'. Perfect little Ben had everything that Rey didn't, and it's hard not to resent him for that while still dreaming of having the kind of life he has as a kid.

    When a new book gets published in her adult years, an unlikely encounter with the real Ben makes her realise that what the golden boy of her favourite books actually needed was love and empathy, not envy.

     

    --- this is an impulse burst of writing creativity for the fanfic artists who drew countless little ben sketches and this is my love letter to y’all, name yourselves.

    Summary

    Ben never cared for soulmates. It destroyed his parent's lives. He'll be damned if it'll happen to him too.

    So when he meets Rey, his 16-year old, rich soulmate, he immediately denies her. Ben is not going to jail. Even if laws are different for Soulmate Connections, he still has some kind of morality!

    But when he finds out about Rey's loneliness, the identical feeling of being unwanted as a child matching his, guilt almost drowns him. Feeling the need to help her from the pain he suffered too, Ben bonds with Rey to fill out her loneliness.
    Totally innocent. Nothing odd.

    But it won't take long before the association starts to affect...
