It has been two years since the cotillion when Uma disappeared. A few couples were put together that night, Jay and Lonnie shared their first kiss together during the fireworks and Carlos and Jane had a wonderful time at cotillion and also decided to continue dating. dude was so proud of Carlos for actually not making a total flop of himself in front of jane yet.

Me and Ben are still going strong though we have had our ups and downs lately. He's been acting so strange I don't know if it's because of king duties, me or because his father still doesn't like ben going out with me even though Belle is completely over the moon. She loves how when Ben was spelled by Uma I was the one to break the spell via true love's kiss.

right now I am sitting in my room working on my drawing of me and Ben at the coronation. suddenly my dorm room door that I and Evie shared started to open, I quickly put away the drawings hoping no one will ever see them. Ben walked in with a grin on his face.

"whats going on?" said mal

"nothing I was just wondering if you wanted to go to the enchanted lake, and not waste a beautiful day " ben replied "sure"

I got up and walked over to my closet and picked up my purple leather jacket. ben watched me as I put on my boots.

"what?" I asked in confusion

"nothing, you're just so beautiful " he replied again

I got up and walked over to him, I quickly pecked him on his lips before I walked out the door. he quickly followed

a few mins before I picked up the courage to knock on the door I stared at the box I had in my hand. today was going to the best day of my life. I finally knocked on the door. I didn't get an answer so I just walked in moving the door slowly just in case. when I saw mal sitting on her bed I walk closer to her.

I asked if she wanted to go to the enchanted lake. she luckily said yes. (i have a picnic all set up just like our first date) she walked over to her cupboard and pulled out a leather purple leather jacket. she so beautiful.

"what?" she asked

"nothing your just so beautiful," I told her she started to walk over to me when she got close she pecked me on my lips. I know it was only a short small kiss but it sent fireworks to my heart. we both walked out the door and headed to the stone path that led to the enchanted lake. we talked and talked until I realized that we were close. I made mal stop and put on a blindfold. she had a confused look on her face it was expected. I held her hand as we walked down the cobblestone steps, stopping her from falling over when she missed a step. when I made her stop I took her blindfold off...
