Chapter One: Tourney Tournament
It's been half a year since Mal and her friends arrived in Auradon Prep, they decided to be good and not be their parents. Of course for Mal it was … difficult to say the least since she was raised to be evil from her mother. It's always been that way ever since she can be remember…in fact things have been amazing for Mal that she always has this weird feeling that someone was watching over her. She kept her guard up just to be sure but, when she turns around no one was there. It was just empty…
"Weird…must be the wind" Mal thought to herself as she was on her way to meet her boyfriend Ben. Apparently there's a Tourney Tournament for her boyfriend Ben, Jay and Carlos (her two best friends from the Isle) she was meeting up with Evie and Doug who just came from the library from a study session as what they called it these days.
"Hey Mal over here," Evie waving her best friend over, next to her boyfriend Doug.
"Hey E, hey Doug," Mal greeted her best friend Evie.
"Hey Mal," they both greeted her.
"Are you guys excited for the game?" Mal asked curiously.
"Of course," Doug excitedly pumped for this "I better get going I'll see you at the quad," he says giving Evie a quick kiss before he headed out.
"You two seem happy," Mal replied happy for her friend.
"We are aren't we?" Evie sighed happily "Speaking of boyfriends how are you and Ben coming along?" she asked curiously.
"We're good I'm excited for the game aren't you?" Mal asked.
"Yes Jay and Carlos been practicing extra hard for this tournament … even Chad is starting to get used to them in the team," Evie hesitated at this.
Mal scowled "Yeah well he should. After all if it wasn't for Jay and Carlos they wouldn't be going this far for the finals," she explained
"True," Evie comments.
Evie and Mal headed to the football field where they were meeting up with Lonnie, Jane and … Audrey who just happens to be Jay's current girlfriend. Since their first day both Audrey and Mal aren't exactly getting along but, Mal is willing to get along with her for Jay's sake because ... Jay is her best friend and his happiness means that much to Mal but, unfortunately they didn't stay together for long so they broke up and haven't spoken since. Jay wouldn't say much except that they were from different worlds which was the last conversation they ever had. It made her worry for Jay but, from what she can tell he seems fine.
"There they are!" Lonnie began to say "Evie, Mal over here!" she yelled waving her arms from the crowd to gain her friends attention.
"You think Lonnie made a statement or something?" Evie whispered.
Mal shrugged not knowing what to say "Hey Lonnie, hey Jane," the girls greeted them.
"Hey guys, you're just in time," Lonnie starts to say as she and Jane scooted to make more for their friends "The game is just about to start," she explained.
"Yay!" Mal sarcastically says.
"Oh look there goes Jay and Carlos about to play," Evie pointed out "And there's Ben too!" trying not to make it awkward between the girls.
"Go Ben!" Mal screamed in the crowd which left Ben to wink at his girlfriend which left her to blush.
"This is for you Mal!" Ben screamed running to the field making another winning goal against the Vikings which Jay, Carlos and Chad helped along the way from the amount of players trying to block them.
"Oh my god," Mal covered her face from embarrassment leaving Evie to give her a playfully shrug trying to hide her smile "Watch out Benny!" Mal shouted not wanting her boyfriend to get hurt which he gave a thumps up.
"And there goes number 9. Jay getting the winning kick and passing it to Carlos and look at him go," the announcer replied.
"Over here Carlos, over here!" Jay shouted in the field as Carlos pass the ball at him.
"Whooo go Jay! Go Carlos" both Evie and Mal shouted for their friends.
"And there goes the winning goal. The Fighting Knights are on fire tonight?!" the announcer replied.
(Half an hour later) …
"And that's the end of the first half!" the announcer replied.
"Who's announcing the game anyway do you guys know?" Mal asked Evie, Lonnie or Jane who shrugged at this.
"Actually it's Doug's cousin I think... " Evie spoke up trying to remember "Umm what did he say it was … again …" she murmured to herself "Oh right. It was Charlie. That's his name" she says nodding to herself.
"Charlie huh?" Mal titled her head curious "Hey! Do you guys want to get something to eat before the 2nd half starts?" she offered.
"Sure," Evie, Lonnie and Jane answered.
"Wait who's going to watch our seats?" Jane asked.
"I will," another person replied who just happened to arrive at the right time.
"Kacey!" Lonnie and Jane exclaimed hugging their friend "I didn't think you'd make it." Lonnie gushes at this.
"And miss my boyfriend play against these guys not in your life time," Kacey winked at this then noticed two girls (Mal & Evie) who hasn't met her yet "Oh you brought friends?" she asked.
"Yeah this is Mal, and that's Evie," Lonnie introduced to one another turning to her friends "Guys this is Kacey. She's Logan's little sister," she says.
"It's nice to meet you guys," Kacey smiled at this.
"You too," Evie and Mal replied.
"Well I'm starving I'm going to get something to eat," Mal announced dragging Evie to come with her which she didn't seem to protest at the moment since she's also hungry too.
"Oh wait let me come with you guys. Jane do you mind that you and Kacey stay here watching our seats so we can get the food," Lonnie asked.
"Sure Lonnie," Jane replied.
"Cool come on guys," Lonnie replied as she, Mal and Evie headed to the food court where one of Lonnie's youngest siblings Kai was one of the servers.
"Hey Kai," Lonnie greeted her baby brother.
"Hey Lonnie what can I get you guys?" Kai asked (a/n: Kai looks exactly like his father Shen but, has his mother Mulan's eyes and hairstyle sort of)
"Hmm…" Lonnie began to say looking at the menu "I'll have 2 hotdogs combo, cheeseburger combo, a plain double cheeseburger combo, a churro and a strawberry twist sundae please, oh and the drinks I'll have the half/half ice tea on both combo's please" she explained
"Coming right up?" Kai replied grabbing his older sister Lonnie's orders looking at Mal and Evie "And you guys?" he asked.
"I'll have a Cesar salad and a cheeseburger combo please," Evie replied with a smile.
"I'll have the same except a double cheeseburger and for the drink I'll have half/half ice tea please" Mal replied.
"Oh make that two of that half/half ice tea please," Evie quickly added.
Kai nodded at this gathering their orders "That would be $21.34 please," he says.
Lonnie paid for all of them "I got this guys," she says
"Thanks Lonnie," Evie smiled.
"No problem," Lonnie waved it off giving her brother a $40.00 which Kai gave her the change of $18.66.
"Here's your change sis and here's your food. Be careful it's a bit hot," Kai replied.
Lonnie smiled "Thanks Kai. Oh and when you get a chance tell Mimi that I'll see her this weekend will you," she says.
"Of course and tell the guys I said good luck with the game okay?" Kai replied.
"We will thanks," Evie replied grabbing her salad and cheeseburger combo
"That wasn't so bad," Lonnie gushes at this eating her fries.
Mal ate one of her fries "Wow this is really good," dipping her French fries with ketchup which she isn't used to it since back in the Island they didn't have much.
"Tell me about it. You guys have everything here," Evie gushes at this.
"Don't you guys have any food back at the Isle though?" Lonnie asked.
Both Mal and Evie stopped with sad expressions on their faces leaving Lonnie to gasp "Oh. I see… That's so sad," she says giving her friends a hug which Mal slowly patted her on the back.
"Enough with the hugs, let's get back to benches before Jane and Kacey before it gets really crowded," Mal quickly added not wanting to be rude since she and Evie aren't used to hugs by anyone unless it was from themselves.
"There you guys are we were wondering what took so long," Jane complained.
"Sorry about that line was long," Lonnie replied passing her a hotdog.
"Thanks I was starving," Jane replied unwrapping the wrapper of her hotdog.
"We didn't miss the 2nd half did we?" Evie asked.
"Nah we have like 5 minutes left," Kacey comments.
"Oh good," Mal replied.
"There goes Ben and the guys!" Lonnie pointed out.
"And there goes the cheerleading squad," Mal sarcastically replied watching Audrey and her team doing their cheerleading performance.
"It's not so bad … I mean Audrey can be nice…" Lonnie tried to defend her friend.
"Really?" Mal raises her eyebrow at Lonnie where she felt an awkward silence between them where she made a defeated sigh "Yeah your right," she says.
"That's what I thought," Mal replied leaving the girls to shake their heads.
"Oh look the game is about to start," Kacey spoke up as everyone started to cheer for Ben and the guys.
"So Charlie is Doug's cousin huh? I didn't know that," Mal asked as they were cheering for her boyfriend and friends.
"Yeah apparently he's really into sports or something like that," Evie nodded to herself.
"That's cool," Mal replied.
"And there goes King Ben who scored the final touch down which brings the Fighting Knights another victory!" the announcer shouted (known as Charlie). The crowd cheered loudly as Ben received another trophy.
"What a perfect day for the end of the season! Go Fighting Knights!" Charlie yelled happily as the players walking off the tourney field. Ben, Jay, and Carlos encountered Evie and Mal.
"Congrats you guys that was an awesome game," Evie exclaimed. Mal smiled in agreement.
"You were great Ben!" Mal complimented her boyfriend. Ben smiled and was about to hug her but, Mal blocked him.
"Up bup, bup, no way mister! Not until you shower," Mal ordered, making Ben chuckle "I'll see you guys at the party next weekend it's gonna be epic!?" he exclaimed before he leaves.
"What party?" Jay asked all confuse since he and Carlos are still getting used to being part of the team with the guys.
"What party?" Ben got all confuse "You know when we have a big celebration because we scored for the final game and-" where Ben stopped mid-sentence realizing they haven't stayed in Auradon that long "Oh right… we usually have a party at my beach house. It's about 2 hours' drive from here we usually stay there for the weekend and have bonfires, play video games. We even have some games to play against one another," he explained,
Mal raised her eyebrow at her boyfriend as he said this "And…" moving her hand for Ben to continue.
Ben chuckled "And we usually have a big celebration at my beach house. Last year we even had a big party at my parents yacht because of the game and it's pretty fun. You guys should totally come," he explained.
(Awkward silence) …
"Oh…" Jay half smiled "Does this happen often? The big celebration after we won the game I mean" he asked.
"Yeah whenever we win we usually have big celebrations parties because of it," Ben told him.
"Sounds like fun when is it?" Carlos asked trying to ease the tension.
"Well we usually have it every month but, since I had it planned for this weekend I had to reschedule for next week because I'm going to be busy this weekend since it's my grandpa's birthday. We even have everyone stay the night or two at my place until the end of the weekend. It's pretty fun," he explained.
"Right… and we just happen to learn about the party now…" Mal slowly said this.
Ben half smiled "It must've slipped my mind since I've been so busy with school and everything and-I could've sworn I told you this Mal," he quickly added turning to his girlfriend who shook her head 'no' at this.
"So basically you're saying is the party that you were having was this weekend but, rescheduled for next week right?" Evie asked just to be sure.
"Yeah and then we have another one in a few weeks," Ben answered; again you can feel the awkwardness between them "Since I won't have time to have one this weekend Audrey is hosting one of her famous 'sleep overs' at her place apparently it's a princess tradition and-"noticing his girlfriend Mal's blank expression on her face which left him to cough awkwardly "I-I mean I'm sure you guys will be invited," he quickly added.
Mal gave a sarcastically smile "No I haven't gotten my invitation yet Benny and neither did Evie," she says.
Is it just me or is it like de ja vu for Mal since this happen exactly towards her mother Maleficent when she wasn't invited to Aurora's christening.
"I'm sure you'll get invited guys Mal I mean you're my girlfriend so technically you and Evie should be invited," Ben assured his girlfriend again.
"Yeah maybe… and what exactly are you guys going to do next weekend while Audrey has ... her 'girly sleepovers' while the rest of us are doing whatever girls do in sleepovers," Mal sarcastically says.
"Well we'd probably play video games, go to the beach, you know guy stuff," Ben replied leaving Mal to blankly stare her boyfriend again.
"Again if you guys didn't get an invite which I'm sure you will," Ben started to say trying to ease the tension between them "You and Evie are always welcome to my beach house okay we even go star gazing since I know it's one of your hobbies that you like to do," he explained.
Mal was about to protest and made a tired "Sure okay," she says with a shrug.
"Great" Ben began to say and gave her a hug quickly despite how he's all sweaty and gross that he managed to kiss her on the lips which shocked Mal to realize what he just did "Don't kill me," he says quickly running away from his girlfriend.
"BEN I'm going to kill you!?" Mal screamed running after her boyfriend.
Ben laughed at this "But, you love me anyway catch you later Mal. I love you!" he says running through the crowd than anyone has ever seen him heading to the lockers no doubt.
"I love you too," Mal smiled shaking her head knowing how much of a goof he can be "I can't believe he kissed me," she huffs after Evie passed her water bottle from running after Ben for tricking her.
"Well he is your boyfriend Mal," Evie pointed out.
"So not the point," Mal exclaimed and made a huff leaving Jay and Carlos to raise their eyebrows at this.
The girls waved bye at Ben despite what just happened earlier, sitting down on the bleachers to rest that Jay decided to begin a conversation with his purple-haired best friend "So… Mal… I need your help on an art project that I'm working on?" Jay asked.
Mal raised her eyebrow at him in surprised "Really?" leaving him to nod at this "Since when did you sign up for art class?" she asked.
Jay shrugged at this "Well actually Ben was the one that suggested the idea that I do it for fun and surprisly it's not so bad," he explained. Mal smiled at that thought on how convincing her boyfriend Ben can be.
"Alright. I'll help you," Mal agreed. Jay smiled and said, "Cool. Meet me at my dorm room later tonight say … 7:00?" he asked.
"Sure see you then," Mal replied. She thought it would be fun to help her best friend with an art project. Just another way of doing good. At least that's what she keeps telling herself that anyway.
"Well I hope you guys have fun because I'll be with Evie in her dorm then," Carlos stated which made Evie smile then she remembered something.
"Oh. Actually, I have to go somewhere with Doug tonight," Evie stated. Carlos looked disappointed. Luckily nobody noticed this.
"Oh. I-it's alright. I guess I'll just hang out with Dude in the courtyard. At night. All alone. All by myself with nobody to talk too except with Dude," Carlos said, emphasizing on the 'at night' and 'all alone' parts.
Evie chuckled nervously. "Well, we'd better get going. See you later, Mal," Jay replied
"Bye," Mal replied as she watched both Jay and Carlos walk away to the lockers.
Evie thought for a moment "I feel kind of bad for Carlos," she started which Mal turned to face her.
"Why?" she asked. Evie sighed "He's going to be by himself and he seemed so happy before I mentioned that I was meeting up with Doug," she explained.
Mal made her thinking face "Maybe he just wanted to spend some time with you. After all you were his first best friend E," she pointed out.
Evie sighed "I guess so," she said, unsure and quickly added "So what are you going to wear for the party that Ben mentioned before?" she asked starting another conversation.
"I'm not sure," Mal frowned at this "Maybe we can go to the mall real quick to find something before I met up with Jay tonight?" she offered.
"Sounds perfect let's go," Evie replied as she wrapped her arm around Mal's as they headed to the mall together.
"Wait how are we going to get there?" Mal asked.
Just before Evie was about to answer they were interrupted by Lonnie who was heading towards them.
"Hey guys wait up!" Lonnie yelled from the distance.
Mal and Evie turned around to see it was Lonnie "Oh hey Lonnie what's up?" she asked.
"Not much where are you guys heading too?" Lonnie asked curiously.
"To the mall we're actually going to find some outfits for the party," Evie answered.
"Really? Audrey gave you the invite?" Lonnie asked in surprise.
"No…" Mal slowly said this "But, even if we didn't get invited Ben said Evie and I can always go to his beach house since it's probably better than any sleep overs anyway," she says with a shrug.
Lonnie gave a sad expression "Awe," she says giving the girls a hug "Don't worry guys I'll make sure Audrey invite you guys since you and Evie are both mine, Jane and Kacey's friends so you guys have to go which it's probably better then what the guys are planning?" she asked.
"What do you mean?" Evie asked.
"Well usually the guys would head to Ben's beach house which is true but, they're going to play video games the whole time or other games that guys come up with and the big celebration would be the same except this time it's with everyone hanging out at the beach really," Lonnie explained waving it off.
"Oh," Mal and Evie replied.
"Yeah so anyway what time are you going to the mall?" Lonnie asked curiously.
"Right now actually we're just trying to figure out how to get there first," Mal answered.
"Oooh do you mind if I come with you guys including Kacey and Jane who also wants to find an outfit too," Lonnie replied.
"Sure the more the merrier," Evie smiled then realized what she just did turning to Mal "If that's okay with you of course?" she quickly added.
Mal shrugged "I don't mind as long as we don't take very long," she says.
"Great let me just gave them," Lonnie smiled running in a distance and seconds later Jane and Kacey appeared which left Mal and Evie to blink their eyes like an owl.
"Well let me just call Ben maybe he can get us a ride and-"Mal started to say where Lonnie cut her off "No need I got us a ride," she says.
Just then a red convertible came through "Hey ladies," Chad smiled but, then saw that Evie and Mal were there, luckily no one noticed except Mal but, she ignored it "I heard you need a ride," he explained.
Mal and Evie looked at each other hesitated at this "Yeah," Lonnie grabbing both Mal and Evie by the grip which was a bit hard to get off "You mind taking us there Chad," she asked sweetly.
"Anything for you," Chad smiled at this, putting the seats back "After you ladies," he offered first.
"Great," Lonnie excitedly says this grabbing Mal who grabbed Evie while Kacey and Jane just followed behind so basically Lonnie sat on the front while Kacey, Mal, Evie and Jane sat on the back.
"So where too?" Chad asked casually.
"To the mall that's near Zoe's fashions, it's near Argrabah" Lonnie ordered.
"Why there? I mean you can just go to the one that's a couple of blocks from here Lonnie," Chad explained.
"True but, my brother's fiancée runs this store and is having a sale so it's 50% off," Kacey spoke up.
Chad shrugged "Alright… if you say so," he says.
A few minutes later Chad and the girls (Mal, Evie, Kacey, Lonnie & Jane) finally arrived to Agrabah where there's a small town center almost similar to a mall except outdoors covered with tents covers at least from what Mal and Evie can tell anyway.
"So where exactly is this place?" Mal slowly said this.
"It's in Rosewood. It's a small town center by Agrabah they have the best dresses in all Auradon," Lonnie stated to say pausing for a moment "Plus Logan gave me a discount so I'm sure it's fine. He said that he'll even give us free gifts if the items that we bought was more than $50.00 so it's not so bad," she explained.
"Who's Logan again?" Evie asked curiously.
"My big brother. He and Zoe just recently got engaged but, their wedding won't be awhile since they're saving up for the wedding," Kacey began to say pausing for a moment before she continued "They want to save up for a house that's decent on their budget and since they're business is very successful right now. Trust me Mal you'll love him he can be very sweet but, can be overprotective though especially after what happen to our mother," she explained.
"What do you mean?" Mal asked.
"Well…" Kacey began to say biting her bottom lip nervously "I don't really remember much but, from what my big brother told me he said that mum was sick. Like really sick and when she got pregnant she was ecstatic because she and my dad been wanting to have a big family… but, then they heard some tragic news…" she explained with a distant tone on her voice.
"Oh? … "Evie asked.
"Yeah … I was only 7-8 years old at the time I think but, my mom was really sick… and when she gave birth to my twin brothers … there was some complication and …" Kacey starts to say leaving both Mal and Evie to give sad expressions on their faces as they had a feeling Kacey's mom didn't make it "Her heart wasn't strong enough… after my little brothers were born.." she whispered.
Lonnie gave a hand squeeze of comfort towards Kacey who squeezed back "I'm sorry to hear that. That must've been hard," she whispered.
"Thanks Lonnie… " Kacey whispered.
"Why didn't you tell us?" Jane asked in whisper tones.
Kacey shrugged "Not something I like to talk about … but, I know if my mom was alive she would've want me to be sad… she would've want me to live my life as best as I could and raise my brothers like she would want me too since daddy was in the army. I'm pretty much the only girl to raise my brothers so it's not so bad and I have my nanny to help out when I'm in school," she explained.
"So Logan is your big brother huh?" Mal asked curiously.
"Yeah he's also graduated from Auradon Prep like 2 years ago he's practically a legend in these parts," Chad spoke up.
"Really why do you say that?" Evie asked.
"Well he's pretty good in sports. He even thought of going abroad to New York because he's into directing but, after what happen to my grandpa he had to stay behind to take care of me, and my younger twin brothers. He's practically a 2nd dad to me after my papa anyway. Even though papa been going to a lot of business trips my big brother practically raised us while our dad was in the navy going to one place to another." Kacey explained.
"Really," Evie replied.
"Yeah my dad been in the army since he was 21 although he thought he was too late to join the army but, apparently they needed recruits at the time so it was a win-win" Kacey spoke up.
"Wow," Mal comments.
"What about you guys?" Kacey asked turning to Mal and Evie.
"What about us?" Mal asked.
"What's your parents like?" Kacey asked curiously which left Lonnie and Jane to look at each other with hesitate looks while Chad he kept his mouth shut because of Lonnie's icy glare.
Mal and Evie looked at each other where Mal decided to speak up "Oh …well I never knew my dad… my mom raised me at the island same with Evie. Both our mom's raised us … just like Jay except with his dad… you know Jafar is his father then there's Cruella De Vil who raised Carlos then Evil Queen is Evie's mom while mine is Maleficent," Mal explained with a shrug.
Kacey dropped her jaw in shock "Y-you mean you're mom is Maleficent the evil queen as the dark fairy evil queen," she slowly says.
"That's her," Mal sarcastically says.
"Whoa…" Kacey whispers biting her bottom lip "And your mom is the Evil Queen Evie? As in Queen Snow White step mother…" she slowly said this.
Evie nodded at this "Yeah. Actually now that I think about it Snow White would be my step sister," she says.
Kacey stared at them in disbelief "Really does that make you a princess too?" she asked.
"I guess so," Evie replied.
"That's so cool," Kacey sighs at this "I wish I can marry a prince but, unfortunately my big brother won't let me," she says.
"Isn't Zander a prince though?" Lonnie asked.
Kacey made a love sigh "He is but, Zander and I are still young for that though since Logan wants me to finish my educations and all that which is totally unfair but, at the same time I guess I can understand his point of view really," she explained.
"So anyway where's this store that you keep mentioning Lonnie?" Mal asked.
"It should be around here somewhere… Chad are you sure you went to the right direction," Lonnie asked looking around the area.
"We're almost there Lonnie don't worry," Chad replied.
"If you say so," Lonnie replied.
"So tell me more about this Logan guy?" Mal asked curiously.
"Well like I mention before he's my big brother, an old classmate of ours except he's 2 years older than us though," Kacey spoke up explaining the situation.
"He and his fiancée soon to be wife makes awesome outfits. She's like the fashion queen after Snow White of course and creates new stuff out of old things to something new. You should've seen her latest treads and creations that she makes from an old backpack to a new improve one it's very popular," Lonnie gushes at this.
"Really" Evie spoke up.
"Yeah she's really cool and sweet. She's like the sweetest person you meet but, can be very stubborn though and very overprotective with her little brother Dustin," Jane spoke up after being quiet during the car ride.
"That's cool sounds like a good guy" Mal replied looking at the sights while Evie was in the middle between Mal and Jane while Kacey sat on the other side of Jane who didn't seem bothered by this since she was looking through the window as Mal was. Both Evie and Mal never been outside of Auradon before so it made them curious where else they could go that was before Chad decided to make conversation.
"So Mal…" Chad began to say noticing Lonnie's icy glare 'you better be nice or I'll tell your parents' look leaving Mal to raise her eyebrow at him "Yeah?" she asked.
"How are you and Ben doing? … from what he told me he said that you guys are going to the big celebration next week at his beach house?" Chad asked.
"We're fine thanks … and yeah we're going to his beach house. He invited us considering I'm his girlfriend and all," Mal replied making sure to put her guard up and make the conversation with Chad short since he's a 'major jerk' face "Why do you ask?" she asked.
Chad shrugged at this "No reason I was just making conversation…" he began to say where Lonnie gave him another icy look that made him sigh "Hey Evie…" he starts to say leaving her to raise her eyebrow at him.
"Yes…?" Evie asked.
"I'm sorry," He sighed, as he was trying to find a parking inside the parking garage luckily it wasn't crowded.
"For… what?" Evie raised her eyebrows.
"For being such a huge jerk after the Parents Day and during especially when I .." Chad began to say wincing noticing another icy look from Lonnie "used you for doing my homework and even though you drugged me and causing more problems for you guys. It was very uncalled for and I hope you can accept my apology," he grunted.
Evie was willing to ignore this apology but, from the expected look from Lonnie that made her stop mostly for Doug though since their friends sort of. She raised her eyebrows when she nodded at this and rolled her eyes with a sigh.
"Fine… you're forgiven," Evie replied with a shrug.
"Really?" Chad asked in surprised.
"Yeah …" Evie comments.
Chad looked at her with a raise eyebrow "Thanks Evie…" he grunted at this.
Evie shrugged at this where Kacey blurted out "Found a parking spot!" she says pointing a parking spot.
Chad parked his car in the empty parking spot "So what exactly are you guys going to buy at the mall anyway again?" Chad asked.
"Well we're buying new outfits for the party next week huh guys?" Kacey spoke up.
"Yeah and I need new shoes and a new dress too. Mom finally let buy my own outfit on my own this time without being all traditional and all," Jane replied.
"New shoes and a dress huh?" Chad asked raising his eyebrow at her.
Jane squeaked hiding behind Evie who patted on her back softly "Don't worry Janie you'll get there… it takes some time to getting use too. Trust me," she says.
"Thanks Evie." Jane softly says.
"Don't worry about it," Evie smiled at this.
"Hey Lonnie I just remembered Evie and I have some plans later so we have to go back before 7:00 sharp okay." Mal explained.
"Got it," Lonnie nodded at this "I wasn't going to stay long anyway since our curfew is at 11:00 so we have plenty of time Mal besides I just wanted to show you guys the mall that I usually go too which the prices are half off today so I thought this was a perfect opportunity to go shopping with the girls," she explained.
"And to visit my favorite older brother," Kacey spoke up.
"Great," Mal replied nodding at this.
"Are you going to hang out with Ben today?" Jane asked curiously turning to her friend.
"Actually I'm going to hang out with Jay helping him with his art project of his…" Mal started to drift from conversation window shopping at the moment since she got distracted by the mall shops at the moment.
"You're hanging out with Jay tonight?" Chad asked.
"Yeah he asked me to help him with his project and he's one of my best friends. I'm always there to help my friends no matter what," Mal answered.
"I didn't know he signed up for art class what brought this on?" Lonnie asked.
"I didn't either but, apparently Ben suggested that Jay tries it for a hobby or something and surprisley he didn't think it was so bad so he asked me to help out since I'm good with art," Mal explained.
"That's true you did a great painting at the coronation. My mom has it hanging up on her wall because of it and she thought it was beautiful." Jane pointed out.
Mal raised her eyebrow at Jane but, shrugged it off "It's not that big of deal Jane," she says.
"Are you kidding my mom hasn't stopped gushing about the painting. You have real talent Mal. You should be proud of that," Jane pointed out pausing for a moment "In fact I bet my mom can help you go to one of the best art programs in the country. The best one that I know of is in New York which is really cool," she gushes.
"Yeah… maybe but, it's more of a hobby Jane it's not like I'm planning on going to college anyway since …most schools are expensive and how am I going to pay for that. I can't really rely on Ben for everything you know," Mal argued back.
Jane was about to protest where Chad speak up between them "Well here we are Rosewood, Agrabah," he says parking his red coverable in the side of the road.
"This is Rosewood?" Evie slowly asked this.
"Yep the one and only Rosewood, I know it's not exactly what you pictured it would be but, it's the only boutique that I know and has good decent prices," Lonnie explained.
"Well let's get this shopping over with" Mal explained.
"Oh look there's Zoe's shop over there," Kacey pointed out at the store which seemed decent enough. It's similar to Forever 21 but, with different styles here and there.
"Wow it's huge," Mal blurted out.
"Yeah Logan wanted to extend the shop a bit and surprisely it made good business," Kacey explained looking around for her big brother as he was by the counter chatting with his fiancée Zoey.
"Big brother!" Kacey spoke up happily hugging her brother.
"Kacey this is a surprise. What are you doing here?" an older gentleman replied.
~*~End of Chapter One~*~
It took me awhile to writ this story but, I figured we need a lot of Jal (Jay x Mal) as a couple in fanfiction since there's not a lot. So what do you guys think? Let me know and I'll answer questions as much as I can. Hopefully you guys will enjoy the rest of the chapter like I have.
