Another shorter one. I know. The next one is probably gonna be short too. Expect 4-6 more chapters of the 'main storyline'. And then just more connecting one-shots afterwards. Um ... I'm surprised no one commented on the small Once Upon A Time nod I had in the last chapter. Although someone did notice a small little error in last chapter where I forgot Carlos's name. So thank you for pointing that out reviewer (I forgot your name.) There were other things I was going to mention but I forgot them. So enjoy the chapter, leave a review (they make me want to write faster), and the next chapter should be out in a few hours. (Probably not though.)

After the graduation ceremony, everyone moved out into the courtyard where a large tent was set up with food and tables. Everyone moved around congratulating the students.

Ben and Mal stood together. A small plate of food in Ben's hand that they snacked off of between people.

Evie and Doug, not wanting to stand or sit in one place for a long time, made their rounds around the tent. Saying hello to their friends and family.

Carlos and Jay were were outside of the tent playing croquet with their girlfriends' parents while Jane and Lonnie watched.

Everyone was having a good time.

Later in the evening, when everyone sat down for dinner, Mal noticed Ben wasn't at her side. Looking around, she noticed him standing on the raised platform the band was set up on.

Ben grabbed the microphone. "Excuse me. People of Auradon." Everyone turned to look at their King. "Two years ago, I made my first official decree. It allowed four teenagers from the Isle of the Lost to come to Auradon. A few weeks later, I fell in love. Mal, I knew from the moment I saw you step out of that car, that I wanted to be with you. I want to be with you. Forever. Mal. Will you marry me?" By now, he had made his way over to Mal, he was on one knee in front of her, waiting for an answer.

Mal looked at him, and keeping a neutral look on her face said, "You're an idiot." A smile cracking on her face.

"I'm not hearing a no." Ben whispered.

"Yes. Yes, I'll marry you."

Ben stood up and yelled, "She said yes!"

Chucking the mic back to the stage, he pulled Mal up and kissed her square on the lips.

All around the two, applause sounded for their King and new Queen.
