Hi, so I would tell you I have a very good reason for not updating consistently. But I've just been extremely lazy, so yeah. Also, just a reminder these are ONE SHOTS, so unless I say they are connected, they are not. Anyways, here's a chapter dedicated to New Year's Eve tonight!

Mal and Evie were in their room, both attempting to figure out which of the many outfits Evie had made to wear to the New Year's Eve ball.

Both girls knew nothing about celebrating the New Year and why someone would want to dress up get all excited about a new year. Their respective boyfriends' had asked them to attend to the a ball a week ago; throwing Evie into extreme fashion mode as soon as the word "ball" was out of their mouths.

"M, do you think I should go with the sparkely dark blue dress with the leather jacket? Or the black mini skirt and blue top?" The dark haired girl questioned; while holding them both up towards her top.

"Go with the dress and jacket," Mal replied while brushing out her hair, "Makes the sparkles in your hair pop"

Mal slowly put on some eye shadow, using the techniques that Evie had taught her. Thinking, she thought of Ben and how many new things he had taught her, since they arrived in Auradon. He taught her how to swim, how to be good. But most of all, he taught her love.

"MAL!" Evie shouted looking at her best friend queerly.

"H-huh?"

"I said, 'Which dress are you wearing to the ball?'"

"Um," Mal started having not even looked at the dresses Evie speant so much time on. " I think I will wear the purple one"

"M, they are all purple"

"Oh, uh okay, then the one with the sweetheart neckline" Mal decided, blushing a deep red as her friend noticed she didn't even look.

2 Hours Later

A knock was heard at the Girls' room, both boys were stood outside the door; dressed in their suits. Ben's was blue with gold, while Doug's was black with white.

Evie opened the door, with Mal rumanging behind her, tring to finish one final touch on her gift to Ben.

Finally, deciding she was done, both girls and their respective dates headed to the dance.

6 Hours Later

"10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1!" Everyone cheered, blowing their noisemakers and screaming.

Ben and Mal shared a sweet kiss, later Mal learned it was called a New Year's Kiss. Giving Ben his present, she looked down, embarrassed when he said it was amazing.

It was a picture of the lake and their place.

"Happy New Year Mal,"

"Happy New Year Ben,"

Hope everyone has a happy and safe New Year! Happy New Year!
