I decided to continue this story (I mean, this One-Shot series) with other texts about Mal and Evie relation. I'll be very happy if you leave a review and I hope this third text is pleasant. Good reading!

Descendants is not my own.

"You want make a present to Mal?" asked Ben.

"Yes." said Evie. "Why? In Auradon, you don't make present for your… closes?"

"Yes, yes, of cause that we make. But it's strange that you want to meet me to talk me about it. Never mind, I'm happy if I can help you, Evie. But, are you sure I'm the… best person? You do not want ask Jay or Carlos?"

"Ben, Mal is your best friend. You're the best person to help me. I mean, without you, I'll give Mal a dress or something like that but I'm sure it's not she want. That's why I want you to help me, you understand?"

"Err… Yes, I understand."

"Fantastic! Come on, we have no time to lose."

It's like that Ben found himself walking around in Auradon with Evie, looking for a present to offer to Mal. He even offered to pay instead of the girl but Evie insisted on doing it herself if they found a present worthy of interest.

"You know, you could have asked Audrey for help you." joked Ben.

"Ew! And, after, I ask Tchad to help me with my homework, it's right?" said Evie with a wince.

"It's better to ask Carlos and Jay?" smiled Ben, stuffing his hands into his pockets.

It was cold at that time of the day. It was the perfect time to go home and sleep in a comfortable bed. But Ben had to admit that he liked to go out in the evening. Fortunately for he and Evie, Mal was with Belle, in the Beast's castle. Surprisingly, Malefique's daughter liked to past time with Ben's mother. The two girls had more resemblance than the others would have liked to believe.

"No. Carlos will say to shop a dog or a computer and Jay don't know than a girl want. Definitely no." answered Evie, shaking her head.

"So… Do you have any an idea what Mal wants?" asked Ben, changing the conversation.

"Not really. If not, you'll not be there with me. And you? Do you have any an idea what Mal wants?"

"No. A jewel, perhaps? Or a book?"

"A jewel or a book? Why not…"

"You really needed my help to choose?" joked Ben with a smile.

"Oh, shut up. I want… Oh, I know!" cried Evie, stopping, causing Ben to come in accidentally.

"I'm sorry! Are you fine, Evie?"

"Yes, I'm fine. And, now, I know what to offer Mal." said Evie with a smile, her arms crossed.

"It's cool!" said Ben, without big reaction before he adjusted. "And what is it?"

"Follow me, you'll quickly understand."

A few ten of minutes later, Evie found her happiness and she and Ben were leaving a shop with various bags.

"Where are we going to put that?" asked Ben, pointing fingers at bags.

"I thought of your castle. There is obviously not enough space in our room at school." answered Evie, shrugging the shoulders.

"Err… Yes, you're right. In my castle, yes." said Ben, nodding his head. "… Oh, I'm sorry! Do you want me to carry the bags?"

"No, it's good. Don't worry, Ben." laughed Evie. "I'm a girl who loves to shop. I'm used to it."

"Okay. In that case, let me at least take you back to school and I'll take the bags home."

Evie did not refuse and they returned to school, in the bedroom where Evie and Mal lived. Mal was on her bed, reading a book. A book that probably came from Belle's library. She smiled as she saw Evie, while Ben greeted her discreetly and immediately whished them a good night and left, with the bags.

"You had passed a good evening, Evie?" asked Mal. "You bought clothes to Ben? I thought his dressmaker had good tastes. I guess that I was wrong."

"Clothes from Ben?" repeated Evie, confused. "Oh, no! It's not for he. It's for… another person."

"Another person? Who?" said Mal, amused.

"Err… Never mind. You'll see soon."

"… Okay."

"Then…" said Evie, approaching Mal for to sit in the bed. "And you, M? With Belle?"

"Oh, it was fabulous!" cried Mal, closing her book for looking her girlfriend. "You knew that Belle speak French? Or she loved a strange town named Paris? She said me when…"

Evie laughed at Mal's exalted account of a simple courtesy visit in the middle of the afternoon. Apparently, she had so liked to talk with Belle that Mal was stay much longer than expected at Beast's castle. Happily, thought Evie. Otherwise, she could have been intrigued that Ben was go with me to shop in town. There, at least, she suspects nothing. Good.

"And this is how she met the king." finished Mal, without noticing that Evie did not listen to her. "Oh, and Belle says that if we want to come, there is no problem. I planned to see her tomorrow. Do you want to come with me, E?"

"Obviously that I'll come with you, honey. I want to spend some time with my girlfriend."

And be present when Ben will show her the present we bought today, added Evie, silently.

No doubt, Mal will appreciate her present. After all, she loved to paint. So what better than a painting room just for her, into Beast's castle ?

You'll see, Mal, we did not forget your birthday. Never. You're so important for us, even if you pretend don't notice it, and pretend don't worry about it.

"So…" said Evie, abstractedly. "We still have time to sleep. What do you want us to do in the meantime? Oh, I know! We can make you try dresses."

"E…"

"Please, Mal. Come on!"

"… Okay…" resigned Mal. "Even if I feel than I'll regret this decision."

"But no, but no. You'll see. You'll love it!"

Mal sighed.

"You're lucky that I love you, E."
