So it might be a bad idea to work on this story late at night after working on a six page paper for college English. Sorry if this chapter doesn't seem as good as usually or as long, but at least you got a chapter this week! I'm adding this chapter early because I feel bad about you not getting two this week. I hope you will forgive me since something good happens this chapter.

Uma appeared completely stunned by Naveen's sudden proclamation. "Are you serious?" She whispered so no one could or would eavesdrop on them. "You want to marry Freddie?"

"I haven't been more serious about anything else in my life." He swore with everything in his heart. "What do you think she'll say?"

"Probably yes."

"What do you think?" The sea captain tilted her head in inquiry, so he explained, "Do I have your permission to marry your sister?"

Uma gave him a reassuring smile. "Absolutely," she agreed. "You can marry her as long as you promise not to be a pain-in-the-ass brother-in-law."

Naveen played along teasingly. "Then what's the point of marrying her if I can't mess with you?" He let a sigh of relief escape his lips. "I only have one other person to ask before I can plan the proposal."

"Other person?"

He raised an eyebrow in wonderment. "Do you really think I'm the type of person that doesn't ask the father permission to marry their daughter?"

That shocked Uma even more than the earlier statement. "How do you expect to ask our father if he's not even in Auradon?"

"That's where you and Fairy Godmother come in." Naveen insisted already having a plan prepared. "I'm going to have Fairy G. set up a video call and you're going to be the mediator in case something goes wrong."

Uma sighed in annoyance and exasperation. "Naveen, I haven't spoke to my father in a very long time; probably in ten years. I highly doubt that I'll be able to help you in any shape or form." She sighed one more time as she shook her head. "However, since this is for Freddie, I guess it won't hurt to do so for her. When are you planning on asking him?"

"Friday," he answered confidently. "That way Fairy G has enough time tomorrow to set up the video call and I can get a general idea of what I need to say."

Uma returned to the table a lot happier and less embarrass than she was ten minutes ago. In fact, she seemed to be in such a good mood that her friends were wondering what caused a sudden change. Uma only smiled (watching the way the couple was interacting) and insisted, "You'll find out eventually. Maybe sooner than even I think."

About an hour later the diner had closed for the night and everyone was walking to their rooms. Gil went ahead to his room while Harry and Naveen walked the five girls to their dorm the group was chatting out in the hallway, Uma quickly sneaked in her room, grabbed the note, sneaked back out, and placed the note in Freddie's pocket without anyone noticing.

Ally, Jordan, and Harriet went to their respective rooms first. Naveen and Freddie shared a good-night kiss before Freddie went to her room and Naveen walked back to his dorm room. That left only Harry and Uma in the hallway.

Harry was about to leave when his beloved captain grabbed his arm. "We need to talk," Uma insisted.

The first mate raised an eyebrow in question. "Talk about what?"

"Do you remember what you told me three month?" She wondered with all seriousness, clarifying, "On my first day of school?"

Harry gave her a strange look, maybe because he forgot or maybe because he didn't want to get rejected. "I have no idea what you're talking about."

"You told me you love me." Uma provided. "And you said you'd wait until we see each other again for me to say the same to you."

Before Harry was given a chance to speak, he felt Uma's lips on his. He stood frozen for a slight moment. He had always wondered what Uma's lips would taste like against his own. The taste of sea salt and fish combined (which surprised him considering how long she's been away from the ocean) made Harry close his eyes while he melted away from the kiss. He wrapped his arms around her petite form, pulling her closer to him.

Uma had always wanted to kiss Harry ever since he became her first mate. She wished for Harry to be the one to take her first kiss and it came true in that moment. She couldn't imagine it with anyone else. She felt herself melting in his strong arms while their lips danced slowly as they both took what they could in the kiss until the need for air came between them.

"Uma. . ." Harry whispered in shock of what just happened.

Uma smiled at his surprise expression and confessed, "I love you, Harry. I always have and nothing is going to change my mind."

A smirk arose on his lips as he muttered, "I love you too, Uma darling."

He leaned down and kissed her lips hungrily. Uma felt herself melt into his arms again while he kissed her. All of her thoughts washed away as he moved his hand into her luscious hair, gripping it tightly as their kiss grew heated, full of want and desire, their breaths becoming more rigid.

Maybe if they weren't too focused on each other, they would have noticed the spoiled princess that was ready to make their life hell.

Cliffhanger! Story is ending soon! Actually, probably next week it will end.
