[[Taking place after Ben and Juliet run into each other in the flash sideways verse.]]

"Where are you going tonight, dressed like that?" Ben’s father, Rodger asked Ben as headed towards the door.

"I already told you, just meeting up with an old friend."

"Right, just an old friend. Let me guess, this old friend is a pretty lady?"

"Yea, but it’s not like that," Ben said even though he did want it to be like that, but he really didn’t think Juliet was going to consider this a date. This was just him showing her around since she just moved here.

"Don’t you think it’s about time you find yourself someone and settle down? I’m not going to last much longer, would hate for you to be alone."

"Don’t talk like that, Dad." Ben took one more look at himself in the mirror before opening the door. He really wasn’t dressed up that much; he usually wore dress shirts and pants. Just tonight he wore one of his best shirts; a black one with gray pin stripes and a pair of black dress pants topped off with a matching black suit jacket. So maybe this would be a bit too much, depending on what she was wearing. But really, it was nothing, he just wanted to look nice and impress her.

 "Don’t wait up for me." Ben shut the door behind him, not giving his father any time to say anything.

 On the way to her house, Ben decided to stop at a store and pick her up some flowers. It didn’t have to mean anything. Ben told himself that friends got friends flowers and if anything, he’d tell her it was just a welcome to the neighborhood present. Because of that, he made sure to pick out flowers that also meant friendship – he didn’t want to scare her away or anything if she didn’t feel the same way. Every flower was carefully picked out and arranged a certain way. The bouquet consisted of pink camellias (longing for you), white camellias (you’re adorable), pink acacias (concealed love), yellow roses (friendship), red carnations (admiration) and alstroemeria lilies (friendship).

Ben arrived at her doorstep at exactly eight; he was never one to be late. He held the flowers behind his back and knocked on the door with his free hand.

1. So this is it? - Ben arrives at the castle and isn't happy about the situation. He runs into Marco who tells him a bit about the castle and eventually Claire joins them....(more info to come as thread continues) 
2. I'm your villain. - After staying in his cottage, Tiller for awhile, Ben leaves when he hears Kate's voice message about the dog. He is shocked to learn that both Kate and Sawyer are at the castle and heads to the castle to find them, only on his way he runs into Juliet. (More coming soon - Ben is going to get sick here.) 

Staying at the Tiller Cottage.

---- -CHARACTER INFORMATION-
Name: Benjamin Linus
Canon: LOST
LJ: lyinglinus
Character & Media Information: http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/Benjamin_Linus
Character Perception: Ben started off a good person, but the life he lived and the way his father treated him, turned him into something else. All he knew was pain growing up, so by the time he was an adult, he was broken and never really knew how to express his feelings. Of course the man feels, but he doesn’t show it, to his people he seems like an emotional void. He is able to brush his feelings off and carry on like nothing happened. He like to think that he does that because he is a good leader, which is part of the reason, but in all reality he doesn’t know how to handle those emotions.

His dad never really made him feel loved or like he fit in. So once he joined the others, he actually felt like he fit in and had a purpose in life. Becoming their leader was one of the best things that happened to him and he always planned to follow Jacob’s word to the very end; he’d do almost anything for the island.

Ben is a very manipulative person. You never really know the real reason he is doing something. He will manipulate you into doing something, thinking that it was your choice, but in all reality he knew the right things to say to you, to make you do it; he is very good with words. Usually, whatever he is doing, is to help himself and no one else. He doesn’t care if people get killed, just as long as he gets the outcome he wants. You can never trust Benjamin Linus.

Timeline: Sometime during season five, when he is off the island and trying to get back. Before he killed Locke.
Ticket:
You can come back to the Island.
