*sigh* You might not have to wait that long. I mean, "He helped me with my walk, so I figured I would return the favor"? And then the come-hither wave? STOP HELPING MY PORN BRAIN, BEN.
I blame Bravo. As long as it's about some sort of creative competition, they've got me by the short hairs. (The "real" housewives can, however, feel free to die in a fire. UGH.)
It's the wife, dude. She's a buzzkill. And I feel SO bad saying that, because she's some poor girl out there watching her husband flirt with Ronnie and dropping weight like crazy, but Ben just keeps being hot with the cute gay man and it is NOT HELPING.
Yes. And I do feel terrible for her...which is largely why I didn't finish the story. But OMG could Ronnie and Ben be ANY slashy-cuter together? COULD THEY? Because I think it might kill me if they were.
I opened a file. I wrote a header. I came up with a title.
And then I thought, "Oh, Ben's poor wife," sighed, closed the file, and walked away.
I'm probably going to have to do it (under friends-lock, of course) as a sacrifice to my writer's block. I mean, if my brain wants to write Ronnie and Ben making it to the finals so that they can be alone in the house and Ronnie can secretly stick his hand down Ben's pants, I should listen.
Yeah, I keep debating if I want to finish it or not. I think if I do, I'd post it under flock. Which is kind of funny, because I don't have many qualms about RPS. But this is really tough for me.
I just went and cast all my votes for Ronnie. I will cry if he gets eliminated.
WHY CAN'T YOU BE SINGLE, BEN?!
On the other hand, would it be nearly as compelling if he were? As it is, they have the whole star-crossed lovers/pining/this-can-never-be-and-yet thing going on. If Ben were single, right now we'd just be saying "Totally doing it!" instead.
I know. Plus when Ben was standing at the end of the catwalk waving at Ronnie and one of the judge/trainer people said something like 'it's so wrong, but it's working' I laughed, a lot.
SRSLY. Ronnie & Ben have to stick around. They have to, if only so I can imagine the illicit, angst-filled shenanigans going on in that room. Ronnie won't cross that line... unless Ben asks him to.

I would totally read that. Oh, Ben's poor wife...
