I jumped in shock when my vision suddenly came back; however this time I was in Ever After nightclub sitting in the VIP section with Chad and Az. The loud music hit me; and I winced at the volume of it. Bright and multicoloured flashing lights danced in the background; as everyone continued to enjoy themselves however I just felt empty and like time was going slow until Chad playfully shoved my right shoulder.
"We need to get you a girl" he teased with a large grin.
"What?" I questioned incredulously. Why would I want anyone else apart from Mal? I would and could only ever love Mal, my perfect purple haired princess.
"Come on Ben!" Chad exclaimed as he playfully shoved me again. "You can't mope over Mal forever" he dismissed which made me grimace. "We need to get you laid," he winked at me.
"Chad!" I fired at him. "I love Mal" I urged. I couldn't understand why he couldn't see that it was only Mal for me; and I wasn't going to stop fighting for her - ever!
"Well she left you" he dismissed. "Sorry to break it to you," he added harshly.
"Chad!" Az snapped. "Ben loves Mal, try to be compassionate" he offered; and we both shared a warm smile.
"Sorry dude" he apologised. "Just trying to make you feel better," he added.
"Well there is only one thing that will do that" I answered and my eyes caught a flash of purple on the dance floor underneath us. I squinted and my eyes widened when I realised that it was Mal dancing with a tall, muscular brown haired man. "No!" I exclaimed as I quickly stood up and started to walk towards the dance floor.
"Where are you going?" I heard Az and Chad shout out together. I chose to ignore them; I needed to get to Mal. I needed to stop her from making a mistake that she might regret; this man looked older than her, around his twenties. Yes it might not be my place to get involved; but I would always care and love Mal - and I didn't think this was ever going to change.
When I got to the dance floor I started to panic at the fact that I can't see Mal any more so I pushed myself through the sea of people in a frantic bid to try and find Mal. I didn't like how close they looked; he had his hands on her hips. Normally Mal would have pushed him away but instead she stepped closer to him. My body started to take quick involuntary deep breaths as I started to panic; colours started to swirl around me and I started to feel dizzy. I put my head in my hands; and the music got even louder and when I pulled my hands from my face I froze and gasped at the sight before me.
Mal and this mystery man was now in a very tight embrace with his arms around her waist as her arms were around his neck. She giggled at him before his lips pressed against hers; I felt like I wanted to be sick. This couldn't be happening! It looked like I had lost Mal forever! As I watched him deepened the kiss as his tongue slid into her mouth I stumbled back; I felt like I was falling for a very tortured eternity as I couldn't take my eyes from Mal as she continued to make out with this man, until darkness quickly assaulted me once more.
