Thankfully Adam and Belle quickly ended our engagement party and the guests began to leave; however I could hear what they were saying - where did this leave me and Ben? Yes there was still a chance that Uma was wrong; but sadly there was also a chance that she was carrying Ben's baby and this was killing me.

So after Uma, Gil and Harry were invited to stay at Auradon Castle me and Ben went to our rooms, with both of us not knowing what to do about our current situation.

"Mal let's talk about this" Ben said after he closed the door behind us.

"It would appear there is nothing to talk about Ben" I advised as I stood next to our bed.

"There is"' he urged. "Mal I don't remember sleeping with her" he added which made me look up at him.

"I know" I muttered. "But apparently you have" I sighed. "Ben we have talked about you being under Uma's trance and you said that there are parts when you can't remember what-" I started before I looked down to the floor. "You said and done" I added. "But Uma is right you need to marry her" I stated as I looked up at him before I pursed my lips together.

"No I don't" he dismissed.

"And risk civil war in years to come?" I asked rhetorically. "Really Ben?" I exclaimed.

"Mal I don't know how to make this better-" he began. "But I will" he promised. "I promise" he vowed.

"I don't know Ben" I said sadly. All I wanted was for Ben to be able to find a way out for us both; but if he really is the father to Uma's baby then there was nothing that we could do.

"I don't know how you are going to be able to fix this" I sighed sadly again. "You know what hurts me even more than her being pregnant?" I stated.

"What?" He asked sadly.

"The first time we slept together" I said. "I thought it was both of our first times" I said sadly as I sighed again. Yes in all honesty it probably didn't matter; but the fact that me and Ben has found each other and had sex was always going to be a very big deal.

"To me it was" he replied. "Mal I lost my virginity to you" he stressed.

"But you didn't Ben" I answered sourly. "You lost it to Uma" I grimaced. "And I know it sounds like I am taking this out on you and I'm really not" I said hoping that this was going to reassure him. This wasn't Ben's fault; in fact I wanted to kill Uma for doing this to Ben when he was under her trance. "I guess-" I started.

"Yes?" He prompted.

"I am just hurt by the situation" I admitted. "I have lost you" I added as my eyes started to fill up with tears.

"No!" He exclaimed as he wrapped his arms around my waist. "No you haven't" he said as he pulled me into a hug. I sighed at the contact but then my mind spitefully reminded me that I was losing Ben and I had to force the lump down that was trying to build up in my throat.

"Ben Uma is going to be Queen" I said over his shoulder. "You have a baby with her" I advised as I pulled away and looked up at him. "There is nothing that either of us can do" I said sadly.

"Mal I will think of a way" he promised. "I am not prepared to lose you" he urged.

"Yeah" I agreed as I looked down at the floor again. "I'm going to sleep in my old room" I advised.

"Mal there is no need for that" he said as his face dropped and I started to mentally kick myself. Of course I wanted to stay with Ben but right now I needed time on my own to try and digest everything that was happening and what may happen in the future.

"There is Ben" I urged. "I need space" I advised. "To think" I added as I stepped out of his arms.

"Please don't go Mal" he begged as sadness shone in his eyes. "We don't even know if the baby is actually mine" he urged; and I could see that he was hoping that it wasn't.

"Uma said it is" I said sadly. "And she has won" I added as I bit down on my bottom lip. "She always said she would get the last word and she has" I shrugged as I turned to leave the room.

"Mal please?" He begged again.

"Ben I need space" I advised him. "Please give me it?" I asked; and I watched as he slowly nodded at me. "I need to start mentally preparing myself about what could happen; there is a chance Ben that you need to marry Uma" I reminded him.

"But I don't want to" he urged.

"I know" I replied. "I don't want you to either" I answered.

"Mal I will fix this" he repeated.

"I know, you keep saying" I said. "I just don't know how" I added before I quickly ran out of the room, closing the door behind me before me and Ben could fall into any further despair.
