Chapter 11: Ya Wha'?

Hazel's POV:

I take a look around, and the gang's all here. Ben, Mal, Evie, and Jay. With Carlos of course in the, driver's seat. "It's SOOOO nice ta, see, all of ya again.", I say while gesturin' ta everyone. Mal crosses her arms. "Seriously? You go dark for two days, then message us out of the blue to drop everything to come rescue you. You better know where Uma is.", Mal snaps. Ben puts a hand on her shoulder. "Hey let's all just take a deep breath okay? Let's just remain calm.", Ben quickly says. "1ST OFF, it's not like I could just whip my phone out every 5 seconds ta give ya an update. Besides, there wasn't anything ta update ya on anyway til taday. 2ND, no 1 RESCUED me, I didn't need any rescuin'. I ask ya ta come get me cause I have all the information there was ta get, there was no point of me HANGIN' around there any longer than necessary. No 1 there knows where Uma is. She's NOT back at the Isle, she HASN'T contacted anyone, and NO ONE knows when she's comin' back.", I rant. Ya know, if this was ANY other time, I'd find Mal's aggravated tone quite amusin'. Right now though, I'm just not in the mood ta mess with her. "ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!", Mal screams. Ben immediately goes ta rub her shoulders. "You can't be serious.", Jay adds. "Did you talk to Harry, Gil, the rest of Uma's pirate crew.", Evie asks me. I glance away for a second before takin' a DEEP breath. "Ya, I talked ta EVERYONE, like I said.", I reply.

I look out the window, and we're halfway across the, bridge. We'll be in Auradon in a few minutes. In a few minutes I'll be stuck there once AGAIN. "Did you just walk up to them and ask where Uma was?", Mal asks while rubbin' her temples. How STUPID does she think I actually am? I am NOT in the mood for this right now, Mal's really startin' ta get on my nerves. "NO. I infiltrated their lil crew, and durin' 1 of their lil meetin's this guy said that there still wasn't any sign of Uma. Everyone looked pretty sad about that.", I snap. Evie looks hella surprised, and I'm sure Jay looks about the same. I don't really feel like lookin' over ta check. I've never actually snapped at any of them before. "How do you know they weren't just saying that to throw you off Uma's trail?", Mal snaps back. We reach the school, and I throw the car door open before hopping out. It looks like it's gonna get dark pretty soon, at least I won't have ta pass ta many people on the way ta my dorm. "Hey! Where do you think you're going?!", Mal shouts as she runs in front of me. Ben quickly slides in between us ta prevent any blood shed, how HEROIC of him. "I'm goin' back ta my DORM.", I tell her. "Mal, you need to calm down before you cause a scene.", Evie says as she moves ta stand next ta her. I can't BELIEVE she's pissed with me right now. I went on this lil mission of HERS. What MORE does she want?! "It's fine, E. Because Hazel here is gonna go BACK to the Isle, and she's not coming back until she finds out where Uma is.", Mal coldly says.

Harry's POV:

I come ta when I feel someone shakin' meh. I groggily open me eyes. Wha'? Where am I? I look ta me left 'nd Uncle Smee's standin' o'er meh. He must've been tha one who woke meh up. "Harry, son, are you okay? You've been unconscious for about 30 minutes now.", Uncle Smee 'ells meh. I let out a groan as I rub me head afta I force meself ta sit up. I glance 'round, I'm 'n me room o' tha crew's ship. Did I fall 'sleep here 'r somethin'? I sit up straighter with a jolt. It all comes floodin' back ta meh. Tha fight I had with Hazel, tha' dream.. "Where's Hazel?!", I shout as I jump up. Uncle Smee steadies meh as I almost tip right o'er. "Woah! Take it easy, Harry! What happened?", Uncle Smee asks meh. I quickly shake me head. I can fill him 'n lat'r. "Where is she?", I ask him 'gain. I have ta find 'er 'fore it's ta late. She can' leave meh here like this. Uncle Smee lets go o' me 'fore removin' his hat. NO.. "She stopped by my ship just before I walked down here. She asked me to take care of you, and not let you go back to your father. She told me where you were, and that I had to come get you. She left a giant burlap sack. Told me to open it after she left, and boy did she take off in a hurry. I-", Uncle Smee 'tarts recallin' 'til I cut him off. "Which way did she go?", I frantically ask. "Son.", Uncle Smee says. "NO I HAVE TA FIND 'ER 'FORE IT'S TA LATE!", I scream. I can' lose 'er.. Sure, she might've lied and manipulated meh a bit, but e'eryone lies and manipulates each other 'ere.

I know I should probably hate 'er, but 'or some reason, I just can' bring meself ta. "Harry, I'm so sorry, but that was over 30 minutes ago. I tried to wake you up, but I couldn't get you to wake up for the life of me.", Uncle Smee tells meh. I can feel me entire world shatter 'round meh. I plop back down 'n me bed. "Why didn' ya stop 'er from leavin'?!", I snap. "She took off before I could so much as thank her for leavin' us all that money!", Uncle Smee exclaims. I look up 'nd quirk me brow at him. Wha's he 'en 'n 'bout? "Wha're ya talkin' 'bout? Wha' money?", I question. "That's what was in that giant burlap sack she left. There was also a note in there stating what exactly the money was for. It's for your living expenses, and paying off your father if necessary so he'll finally leave you alone.", Uncle Smee clarifies. So she was thinkin' 'bout meh e'en as she was makin' a break 'or it? She must've kept meh knocked out 'or this long so I wouldn' be able ta stop 'er from leavin'. Ugh, I shouldn' 'ave lashed out at 'er like tha'. I was just feelin' so hurt tha' this person I actually 'tarted ta care 'bout, wasn' exactly who I thought she was. "I'm not sure how exactly she could leave per se, it's not like she could take the next cargo boat out of here. I'm sure she's hidin' around here somewhere, don't you worry Harry, she'll turn up soon enough.", Uncle Smee says 'n attempts ta cheer meh up. I slowly shake me head 'gain. "No she LEFT left, went back ta Boreadon.", I sigh.

Hazel's POV:

"Mal, hasn't she done enough?", Carlos asks her. APPARENTLY NOT. "She was there for only TWO DAYS before throwing in the towel!", Mal exclaims. "EXCUSE me? I got in, got the information, then got OUT. I'm SORRY if what I found out wasn't what ya wanted ta hear, but there's nothing ELSE I can do!", I say as I push Ben ta the side. If Mal thinks I won't fight her because we're in Auradon, then she's got another thing comin'. "She did her best and that's all we could really ask for.", Ben comments. I just LOVE how Mal seems ta be the only 1 here with an, issue. I get that Uma and her HATE each other, and Uma's 'evil' and all, but I think she's losin' her marbles. That's comin' from ME of all people. "Did she really though, Ben? Are you absolutely sure she tried her hardest?", Mal asks Ben. Yep, she's CRACKIN'. This would be interestin' ta watch if I didn' feel absolutely HORRIBLE right about now. "Mal, we want to find Uma just as much as you do but-", Jay starts before Mal cuts him off. Wow, someone's bein' a grumpy grouch, lol. "Really?! Cause it seems like I'm the only one who's ACTUALLY trying right now.", Mal emotionally cries out. GODS, don' tell me she's gonna cry over it. Ben envelops her in a hug. "Hey, hey. It's alright, we'll find Uma I promise. Everything will work out in the end, you'll see.", Ben soothes. Mals starts cryin' in his arms. Ya've got ta be shittin' me. She's cryin' over THAT? She better be cryin' outta frustration, because otherwise, she's bein' HELLA overdramatic.

Pretty soon that whole, mess, turns inta 1 big group hug. That I OBVIOUSLY stay out of of course. I manage ta sneak away without them noticin'. Either that or they just didn't care anymore if I, left, or not. I walk back ta the dorms, clomp up the stairs, then finally reach my room. I snap my fingers, and the door flings open. I step in before SLAMMIN' the door behind me. A quick look around and I can determine that everything's, in order. A certain sense of, emptiness, washes over me as I sit down at the edge of my bed. I wonder what Harry and I would be doin' if I were still over there.. I quickly shake my head ta clear THAT train of thought. I've never MISSED someone I messed around with, before. So why should I start now? "Cause ya actually care about this one.", I mutter ta myself. Oh who asked ya ANYWAY? It doesn't matter, he lives in his own world across the water, and I live HERE. This is the way it has ta be. "Unless Ben invites them ta go ta school here?", I point out. Ya think Mal would stand for that? Her and her friend group aren't exactly buddy buddies with Uma's crew. They DON'T like Uma, so by association, they don't like her crew. Ya've heard how they've spoken about Harry before, not ta mention that he was the 1 who kidnapped Ben in the 1st place when he went ta the Isle. Face it, Harry's never gonna get ta come here. Why would he even want ta? Ya've heard how HE talk about the people here. Besides, he probably hates me now.

Harry's POV:

"Borea- oh you mean Auradon?", Uncle Smee asks meh. I prop me head 'n me hand 'fore noddin'. "What was a girl from Auradon even doing here anyway?", Uncle Smee asks meh. Ugh, tha last thin' I wanna talk 'bout, is WHY she was here ta 'gin with. "It doesn't matter, cause she's gone now. She's back ta where she belongs.", I grumble. "I suppose, but she didn't really strike me as a princess. Anyway, come on son, we'd better get you back to my ship before it gets dark.", Uncle Smee says 'fore gently pullin' meh ta me feet. "She said she wasn't a princess.", I whisper as I follow him out. I should've fought 'or 'er, I should've done more, I COULD'VE done more. 'nstead I just SLEPT while she walked out o' me life. She's probably ne'er comin' back either. Wha' reason would she have ta? She got tha information she needed, end o' story. We leave tha crews' quarters 'nd go 'bove deck. "I'm sure you 2 will see each other again some day. You won't be here forever, and she won't be there forever. You never know where life will take you.", Uncle Smee tells meh. We're soon off tha ship, 'nd 'n tha docks. We walk back ta his ship 'n silence. We climb 'board. "Ya t'ink I'll leave this place 1 day?", I ask 'im. He opens tha door ta b'low deck, 'nd ushers meh ta go 'n 1st. He closes tha door 'hind us. "Of course I do, Harry. Now that might not be tomorrow, or next week, but never lose hope of that you'll get to accomplish more in your lifetime than being a pirate on the Isle.", he replies.

I take a seat 'n tha couch tha lass was lyin' on, just hours 'go. Uncle Smee has a seat next ta meh 'fore givin' meh a pat 'n tha back. "Do ya e'er regret bein' me da's 1st mate?", I ask him afta a moment. He looks slightly off put by me question 'or a moment 'fore composin' himself. "There are times when I look back at my life, and wish I had done certain things a little bit differently. I don't regret serving your father though, he was a great pirate. Who just, made 1 too many mistakes. He didn't used to be like this you know, constantly drinking, I mean. He just finally snapped after being put in this place. He misses his old life terribly, he misses being out on the sea. That of course is no excuse for how he's treated you, but he does have his reasons for being the way he is.", Uncle Smee explains ta meh. I figured he was a drunk 'or SOME reason. Didn't put together wha' tha source o' it was. Uncle Smee stands up. "Well, why don't you take it easy and get some rest? Your bed's already made up.", Uncle Smee suggests. I nod 'fore standin' up. I move ta go ta me room, but stop meself. I turn back, 'nd give Uncle Smee a quick hug. "Thanks, 'or bein' here.", I awkwardly say afta I pull back. Apologies aren' me strong suit, but I know I lashed out at 'im ta harshly earlier. I run ta meh room 'or he can 'spond. I've been 'n enough o' a emotional roller coaster 'or 1 day, I can' handle anymore sentimental crap. I close me door afta I'm inside, then throw meself on me bed.

*Time Skip*

Hazel's POV:

Ta give ya a lil CONTEXT, ta this, time skip. It's been a HOT MINUTE. I've just been goin' ta my classes and fuckin' with people's heads as usual. NO ONE even suspects that I'm a hot mess, insert upside down smiley face here. I miss Harry so much, and I don't know WHAT I'm supposed ta do about it. As, temptin', as it seems ta sneak across the water on a regular basis, that wouldn't be right. It would only hurt him more in the end. Gods, I can't BELIEVE I'm that one bitch who fell in love with a guy she just met. Ya'd swear I was Queen Anna's daughter or somethin'. Yes, I know, ya're probably thinkin', how in the HELL did she go from 'I think I like him' ta 'I'm in love with him'. Well afta all this time, my soul still hurts whenever I think about him. I can't seem ta move on. I don't WANNA move on, I wanna be with him. I've never felt this strongly about ANYONE in my entire existence. Bet ya're also wonderin, do I regret comin' back so soon? Well, yes and no. I do because now I spend all my free time feelin' depressed as FUCK. I don't because it's what was best for him. I shouldn't have let him get even REMOTELY attached ta me in the 1ST place. I should've known better. I KNEW I would have ta leave eventually, I just didn't plan on formin' such a connection ta the pirate in question. Sometimes I use my magic ta check on him, like a Evie's magic mirror, except I don't need a mirror ta do it lol. Every time I do of course, I get overly emotional and ball my fuckin' eyes OUT.

SWIFTLY movin' on from, that. Ya're probably wonderin' how everyone else is doin' huh? Well Jane and Carlos are still together, Jay kinda has a thing with Lonnie going on, Evie and Doug bought a castle together, and Ben just proposed ta Mal. She said yes of course. I wasn't there for it in person, I watched it from the tv in my room. Because ya know DAMN well that that shit was broadcasted. My favorite part was when a still salty Audrey shouted 'NO!' in the background before Mal said yes. Ya know, I can't really tell what Audrey ACTUALLY misses, Ben himself, or havin' the whole 'queen of Auradon' thing in the bag. I'm leanin' more tawards the, latter. Wow, some people are really THAT entitled. Like, bitch is a PRINCESS, her grandmother is QUEEN Leah. Oh, and Hades tried ta escape and stuff, which sent practically EVERYONE inta a huge panic. It was HILARIOUS! There are also 4 new kids comin' ta Auradon, hand selected by Mal's friend group. Which of course means these are kids they're all FOND of or, friends with. They CLAIM that 1 day they'll bring ALL the kids from the Isle here, but I know that's a crock of shit. All the kids they don't like are stayin' on that floatin' trash pile, forever.. ANYWAY, Jane's birthday is today, and for some reason I've been invited. Probably out of, pity, ugh. I've become more of a, recluse, than I already was ever since I got back. So now I have ta meet Mal and her lil friend group at Evie's castle, 'dressed appropriately'. DEFINE, dressed appropriately.

Gee, that's a REAL, head scratcher. OH, I'VE GOT IT! I waltz over ta my mirror, then with the SNAP of my fingers and the glow of my eyes, I'm ready for the party. I go with a black leather cropped vest that have short sleeves that dramatically flare out. A red leather mini pencil skirt that has 2 big slits down the sides, that're done up with red laces. Red leather high heels that have a strip of leather that wraps around my ankles, that also have thinner laces. For makeup I have this red ta black ombre theme goin' on, and for my eyeshadow it's THAT with white speckles dotted everywhere. Then ta finish it off, I have a silver pirate hook and spyglass charms that're strung on a chain that I've been wearin' around my neck every day now. Pffttt, who knew I was THIS sentimental? I decide ta keep my eyes red, it goes better with the color scheme I've got goin' on here. With that all done, I teleport ta Evie's castle with the snap of my fingers. I POLITELY, kick the door open. "I'm here, let's get this over with!", I screech. Jay runs, sees me, and smirks. HERE we go, again. I roll my eyes as I kick the door closed. "Well don't you look stunning? Love the black on you, babe.", Jay flirts. I swear, sometimes Jay's a bigger flirt than I AM. Though, I'm not really much of a flirt, anymore. Not even for, manipulative purposes. "Thanks.", I flatly reply. Jay shoots me a frown as I saunter past him. I enter the kitchen, and everyone's busy doin' stuff. Carlos briefly looks up and smiles at me before returnin' ta his 'work'.

Jay places a hand on my shoulder, so I whip my head in his direction. "Hey, what's up with you lately? You've been acting weird ever since you got back from the Isle.", Jay asks me. That, for some reason, catches the attention of everyone else. I dramatically roll my eyes before strollin' up ta the counter, Jay follows me. "I don't even know what ya're talkin' about.", I say. "Please, you're not fawnin' over Carlos or being suggestive with Jay. I'd say that counts as weird. Not that I'M complaining though.", Mal remarks. I shoot her a forced smile. "I never 'fawned' over Carlos, I just verbally expressed how precious I think he is.", I argue. "The Isle tends to change people, I'm not really surprised that you're not the same.", Evie says. More like the PEOPLE on the Isle. "The Isle's not the only place that changes people.", I snort. Jay chuckles. "Now THAT'S more like the Hazel we know and love.", he jokes. I try not ta stiffen at the, L word. I'm AMAZED at how easily they can just, throw, that word around now. Especially since they tolerate me at BEST. "Love's a bit of a strong word.", Mal quips. Well isn't she just full of sass taday? "Agreed, 'tolerate', seems more fittin'.", I add. Mal frowns as she looks over to make eye contact with me. I quirk my brow at her. "Oh come on, even though we joke around and stuff, we're friends.", Mal tells me. Which EVERYONE seems ta nod and agree with. OH REALLY? I throw my head back and BUST out laughin', because that is RICH comin' from Mal of all people.

Ah well, I'll let them have this. If they think we're FRIENDS, then I guess we're friends lol. "Hey, what happened ta Jane's cake?", I ask while pointin' ta it. Even though it's perfectly clear that someone couldn't WAIT til the party ta have some. Carlos rushes over ta it, and VERY loudly asks who took out a slice. Afta everyone gets things all, packed up, Mal heads out carryin' a shiny purple gift bag. "Was I supposed ta bring a, gift?", I ask afta Mal leaves. "You HAVE been to a birthday party before right?", Jay jokes. I giggle at his attempt ta 'get me out of my shell'. "I'll just magic somethin' up when we get there.", I say as I make a dismissive gesture. Which makes Carlos look HELLA worried, and it's adorable. I bust out laughin', then Immediately stop. I perk up as I sense somethin'. "Somethin' feels, off.", I comment. The air feels, stale. "Oh no, it's the cake isn't it?", Carlos worries. "The cake is perfect, and I'm sure Jane will understand once you explain to her a minor dent.", Evie soothes. I sense, magic, the DARK kind. My eyes flash, it startles Mal's friends. "Mal's in trouble.", I breathe out. The gang wastes no time in haulin' ASS out the door. I take my sweet time of course, whatever's happened has already HAPPENED. Me breakin' a heel just ta see the aftamath isn't really worth it ta me personally. I walk out JUST in time ta see Audrey disappear in a puff of pink smoke. WAIT, was she wieldin' Maleficent's scepter while wearin' the queen's crown?

Annnndddd the award for saltiest and most entitled ex gf goes ta... AUDREY! I walk over ta the group as that girl I met in that hair salon on the Isle runs ta the doorway with Smee's twins in tow, and some other girl I've never seen. That other girl joins the group as we discuss what the Hell we're gonna do about Audrey and senile Mal. Apparently they're goin' back ta the Isle ta get Hades' Ember, ya good luck with that. They're also draggin' that other girl with them. I start ta feel slightly anxious at the thought of POSSIBLY havin' ta go back ta the Isle. "Hazel, you and Dizzy stay here and take care of the twins til we get back okay?", Evie instructs. I salute her before runnin' inside along with everyone else. I can' tell if I feel, relieved, or disappointed. I wanna see Harry again more than anythin', but I don' think I could handle all the hateful thin's he could possibly dish out in my, direction. So Dizzy, the twins, and I just plop our asses on the sofa as Mal and her crew heads out. "So, are you from Auradon?", Dizzy asks me. Oh goody, another round of 20 QUESTIONS. "Technically, no. I just go ta school here.", I reply. Are you from the Isle?", Dizzy immediately asks. Well THIS won' get annoyin' real fast. Insert upside down smiley face emoji here. "No, who was ya're lil friend that went with Mal's group?", I ask back. If she's gonna ask questions, then I'm gonna ask QUESTIONS ta. "Oh you mean Celia? She's the daughter of Dr. Facilier. Where're you from then?", Dizzy answers then asks.

"Originally? I don't know. What're the names of THESE 2? I briefly remember seein' them at Smee's ship.", I reply. That's basically all that, happened, a REALLY long game of 20 questions. I won' bore ya with all the back and forth. THEN the pink mist rolled in, and ya can guess where it came from. Dizzy let out a pretty big yawn before her head LOLLED ta the side. "Dizzy?", I question as I hop up and try ta shake her awake. I whip my head ta the side, and the twins are FULLY lyin' down. I try ta shake them awake, but they wouldn' budge. I throw back my head and let out a cackle as I make my way ta the kitchen. The irony of this ALL, is fuckin' hillarious. So I just kinda chill in there, drink some punch, munch on some cake. Cause it's not like Jane'll be enjoyin' this ANYTIME soon. BESIDES, I can always just magic up some more when need be. Then afta what feels like an ETERNITY, I hear sense the front door open. I don' detect a particularly scorned woman wieldin' dark magic, so the gang must be back! I overhear Celia sayin' some comfortin' words ta Dizzy. I'd be lyin' if I didn' admit that my breathin' hitched when she said ALL the kids from the Isle were comin' ta Auradon. Then of course REALITY set in. As if Mal would let the people she has beef with come here inta the, 'promise land'. I walk in, and IMMEDIATELY freeze when I spot Uma of all people. "Well LOOK at that! Ya finally found Uma!", I exclaim. That makes everyone slightly jump, lol. I let out a giggle.

I stroll further inta the room, and it looks like Mal, Evie, Uma, and Celia are all HERE. We live for a cast of powerful and strong women. "HOW are you not asleep right now?", Mal asks me. I walk over to her. "Other people's magic doesn' work on me, silly!", I inform her before gigglin'. "Okay, who's this?", Uma asks while pointin' at me. "I was wondering the same thing.", Celia chimes in from the back. I snatch Uma's hand and give it a quick shake before she can YANK her hand back. "I'm Hazel, nice ta meet ya, both.", I say while throwin' a quick glance over my shoulder at Celia. Uma looks me up and down before noddin'. She's no doubt tryin' ta size me up. "Who're you the daughter of?", she asks me. Mal and Evie stiffen while I quickly glance away. Even THEY know it's a sore subject. "WHY does it matter?", I counter as I look Uma DEAD center in the eyes. Afta a hot minute our lil, starin' contest, comes ta an end as she breaks eyes contact. "Ha, I like her.", Uma comments before we all collectively decide ta walk over ta the other room for some reason. As soon as we step inta the doorway, we see Doug on the floor. "When did he get here?", I ask right before Uma asks who exactly HE is. Evie rushes over ta him, and ACTUALLY tries ta wake him up by shakin' him. LOL. I bust out laughin' at that, which causes Uma ta give me a weird look. "You'll get used to her after a while.", Mal comments. Then Evie's informed that true love's kiss will break the spell, cause duh.

She asks us ta leave the room, yada yada yada. We stand in the doorway anyway. She's on the fence about it cause she doesn't know if he loves her back, yada yada yada. Then afta an ETERNITY of her procrastinatin' later, like time's of the essence and Audrey's still out there or whatever but anyway, she FINALLY plants 1 on him thank HADES. He jokes about still bein' asleep for a second and all that jazz, then we leave them so they have their lil moment. We head ta the kitchen for some, cake. Mal and Uma have this moment, and everythin's all PEACHY. "Not that I'm opposed ta sittin' here and eatin' cake, but why exactly are we just sittin' around?", I ask as I'm leanin' on the counter. Mal looks back ta respond, but before she can, ALL the windows are magically boarded up. Everyone gathers around in a cluster, for like safety or somethin', IDK. Mal tries a spell, it flops lol. Uma's shiny necklace glows, they chant together, and the boards just FALL OFF. I guess teamwork really IS important. Uma hands Mal Hades' Ember that I DIDN' know she had. "She had it this WHOLE time? Why does no 1 TELL me anythin'?", I question. Then all of a sudden Ben's outside, so of course Mal RUSHES out. Everyone else hurries out ta greet him, and it sounds like he's not alone. Ah, Jay and Carlos must be with him. I hear the, greetin's and cheers, start ta die down so I walk inta the doorway. I notice Jane, then, my FUCKIN' HEART STOPS. Harry and Gil are here too. I- why couldn' they have told me.. I don' know if I'm ready for whatever happens next.

Gil locks eyes with me, and the BIGGEST shit eatin' grin appears on his face. "Hazel!", he exclaims before runnin' up and huggin' me while spinnin' me around. I let out a squeal and start ta giggle at his antics. He finally sets me down, and I shoot him a smile before boopin' him on the nose. "It's good ta see ya again Gil.", I say. I glance around, Jane, Uma, and Doug look confused, Mal and her group look pleasantly surprised, and Harry has a blank expression on that pretty lil face of his. I nervously look over at him. Gil either doesn' know what happened, or just really can't read a 'room' ta save his life. "Hey Harry! Look who it is! It's Hazel!", Gil excitin'ly points out while LITERALLY pointin' ta me. "I can, see that, Gil.", Harry breathes out. I could probably try ta get a read on his emotions, but I'm ta scared ta. I can feel my breathin' gettin' shallower. I wish I could act like I don' care, but I CAN'. I never thought I'd see him again in person, let alone Auradon. "How're ya both here right now?", I manage ta pant out. "We hopped through tha barrier 'fore it closed, when they went o'er there ta get tha' blue rock.", Harry replies while wavin' his hook in Mal and her friend's direction. How can someone feel overjoyed, YET terrified, at the exact same time? What I would'n give ta be able ta run up ta him and jump inta his arms. "I-", I start before cuttin' myself off. Ugh, WHY does this all of a sudden have ta be so hard? "Ya wha'?", he asks while crossin' his arms. "Okay, am I missing something here?", Uma asks while gesturin' between the 2 of us.
