I am glad you liked the last chapter, I however found that a tad bit awkward to write, but that is only because my mind couldn't make up it's mind, about how I wanted to lay the story out. Also, because I was trying to write a different style, that didn't work for me. So I am just going to go back to the way I know.
The second chapter for Alternate Reality: *WARNING: MENTIONS OF CUTTING AND RAPE! READ AT YOUR OWN RISK*
Rights Go To: Disney! Everything Except the plotline!
Lonnie: Hi, You must be Mal, I am Lonnie.
Mal: Right, yeah Evie told me you were coming by.
Lonnie: Okay, so did she tell you why I was coming by?
Mal: Something about classes, I wasn't really listening.
Lonnie: Well, you got it right. But I don't think you weren't listening because your Maleficent's daughter. I think there is something else going on.
Mal: What are you psychic?
Lonnie: No, but I do get these feelings when something is wrong. I want to study to become a therapyist.
Mal: That cool. But how do you know?
Lonnie: Like I said just a feeling.
Mal: Look I am only doing this because I need to get this off of my chest, and I have a feeling I can trust you. Can't I? And what is said in this room, does not leave this room, Got it? It goes to you with your grave.
Lonnie: Of course. Should I sit down?
Mal: Yeah, cause your an Audronan, and your going to flip.
Lonnie: okay...*sits down*
Mal: you know how I was in the shower before you came?
Lonnie: Yeah.
Mal: I was in there for a long time...
Lonnie: You weren't...cutting were you?
Mal: No. How do you know about that?
Lonnie: I am not as perfect as you think.
Mal: Apparently, but I was in there because I kind of just spaced out.
Lonnie: About?
Mal: something that happened on the isle..It was a few months ago. I had just gotten the letter from Benjamin, and I was kind of upset. I missed my friends, but I didn't want to come here. So I did what I normal did when I am upset. I went for a walk. While I was out for a walk, I got a visit from Gaston's sons. They-they-*starts crying**then starts reliving the night.**then her crys turn into sobs.* MAKE IT STOP! GET AWAY FROM ME! HELP ME!
*Ben, Jay, and Carlos come running in*
Jay and Carlos Run to Mal to comfort her, but she pushes them away*
Ben: Lonnie, what's going on?
Lonnie: I don't know. She was just telling me something about the isle and then that happened. *Lonnie: I shouldn't lie, but she trusted me.*
Ben: Okay. Jay, Carlos? Let me try? I know something that might work.
Jay and Carlos nod* *Ben Walks over and just sits on his knees looking at Mal*
Ben: Hey, Mal? It's Ben. It's okay, no one can hurt you here, your safe. You have your friends, you have Lonnie, and you have..me. It's okay, *starts rubbing her shoulders* Mal, it's okay. calm down.*She starts to calm down.* *then she hugs Ben* *Everyone in the room is a little taken back, but Ben hugs back*
Ben: It's okay Mal, whatever happened on the isle, isn't going to happen here, I will makesure of it. I promise.
Mal: don't leave me.
Ben: I won't.
*Jay, Carlos and Lonnie leave the room* *then they go to talk in the library*
Jay: What happened?
Lonnie: I don't know, but I do know something bad. She was just talking to me one minute, being snarky, and then she starts talking and she starts crying then sobbing, then she just started screaming. I couldn't get her to calm down. I felt so useless. I want to be a therapist but I couldn't get her to calm down. But then Ben come in there and just starts talking to her. You couldn't even get her to calm down, and your her friends. But-I *just starts crying*
Jay and Carlos hug her, Carlos: Hey, it's okay, it takes practice to be good at something. I mean take Me, Jay, and Evie, it took us a while to be good at being well-good.
*she starts laughing*I guess your right. I just need to learn how to deal with it. Guys, she said that she could trust me, I need to be there for her there right?
*Jay and Carlos look at each, As if saying, She said she trust her?*
Carlos: Yeah, she doesn't trust very many people. She must really like you.
Lonnie: And I like her, I want to be there for her, be her friend. Thanks guys I have to go, I need to learn how to calm people down. *she leaves*
Jay: Did she just say what I think she said?
Carlos: Mal trust her? Something must have happened on the isle. She couldn't even look at us.
Jay: Usually she is happy for a hug from the both of us, but she just..-that's it. I have to go Carlos, I'll see you tonight.
Carlos: Wait! Your not going to tell me?
Jay: Not yet!
*Jay leaves. Goes back to the girls dorm room, to see Mal still hugging Ben*
Jay: Can I talk to you for a minute Ben?
Ben: Um? Yeah, I guess. Um..Mal, I am going to go talk to Jay now, Okay? I'll be right outside the door.
Mal: your going to stay by the door right?
Ben: yeah. I'll be right back okay?
Mal: ok..
*They go outside*
Ben: what's going on? She couldn't look at you guys, she didn't want you near her, why was I different?
Jay: Because you were by yourself.
Ben: What?
Jay: You didn't gang up on her, like me and Carlos did.
Ben: I don't get it.
Jay: She can't look at us, cause she familar to our touch, and we were both touching her.
Ben: I don't follow.
Jay: She excepted you because you were calm, and you didn't atomatically touch her, you told her who you were, and you were being nice to her. But me and Carlos just atomatically went to hug her.
Ben: Okay, I only did that because she was having a panic attack.
Jay: I know. But I also know what it was about.
Ben: What was it about?
Jay: Think about it Ben, she wouldn't let more than one person at a time touch her, and she only let you because you told her who you were, and you weren't rushing to touch her.
Ben: She was-*suddenly getting really mad and upset*
Jay: yeah, and I am guess it wasn't one guy.
Ben: That's why she didn't want you and Carlos touching her.
Jay: Yeah..Ben, she let you, don't let her down. She clearly doesn't want me and Carlos right now. But we can see she wants someone to comfort her. That's you right now. Got it?
Ben: yeah, but I-
Mal: sobbing, Get away from me! Don't touch me!
*Opens the door slowly*
Ben: she's having another panic attack, can you get Fairygod mother?
Jay: yeah.
*Jay leaves and Ben goes in to the room*
Ben: Mal, it's okay. No one is going to hurt you, they can't do that here. *Mal looks to Ben, as if saying I can't make it stop* Hey Mal, listen, I need you to focus on something happy. Okay, um..your friends, um. Art. Anything that you like.
Mal: Ben, it won't stop.
Ben: I know Mal. Do you have a happy place?
Mal: no.
Ben: You want me to show you mine?
Mal nods* *then they leave to the Enchanted Lake*
Ben: Mal, this is the enchanted lake. This is where I go when I need to think or just relax. *Mal's still crying* So let's try something to get your mind off of that. Um.. what's your favorite color?
Mal: purple..
Ben: that's a nice color. Um.. what's your favorite thing to do in your free time?
Mal: paint.
Ben: Okay. what do you like to paint?
Mal: Mom, only wants me to paint her, but when I am alone I like to paint, this place I see in my dreams.
Ben: Okay, what does it look like?
Mal: it has this pool of water, with a while bunch of broken rocks. (AKA The Enchanted Lake)
Ben: That sounds nice. What's something you never told someone?
Mal: don't laugh..my middle name is Bertha...
Ben:I wouldn't laugh, because my middle name is Florian.
Mal: I guess our parents don't want us having good middle names huh? *slowly relaxing*
Ben: It looks like it, doesn't it. okay, do you have any siblings?
Mal: no, my Mother says that I am not evil enough, so she wouldn't trust me to make my siblings evil. do you?
Ben: um okay. I don't either. what is your favorite thing to do with your friends?
Mal: We used to like just watching the people on isle. We would sit from the roof and just watch them. Not make fun of them, just watch.
Ben: Sounds like a movie.
Mal: what's a movie?
Ben: you've never seen a movie?
Mal: no.
Ben: I'll have to take you to one. Do you like swimming?
Mal: I've never been swimming.
Ben: but you live on an island.
Mal: With a barrer!
Ben: Fair enough. I'll have to teach you.
Mal: maybe.
Ben: Well, I sent Jay to get Fairygod mother, so we better get back.
Mal: ok..*before he leaves.* Um. Ben? thanks for calming down. I know you want to know what caused it, and I know you that you don't want to help you, but-
Ben: hey, I don't mind helping, and I don't need to know what happened, until you ready. Okay? I am just here to be your friend and help you.
Mal: thanks. *hugs him*
Ben: *hugs back* no problem. But seriously we better get back. *they hear a camera flash* Then they see the camera flash*
Mal: What was that? *looking around*
Ben: A camera. It was probably the paparazzi. They are always trying to get pictures of me.
Mal: Oh..wait! This isn't going to cause any problems for you or Evie right?
Ben: No, it's fine. *Evie?! Dang it! I forgot about her, and she's my girlfriend. Wait..Did I just forget my girlfriend. It was just cause I was helping Mal. Right? I have got to figure this out*
Mal: You can let go now. I am ready to go back.
Ben: Oh right. Sorry. *lets go of her*
*Mal: theres the warmth leaves again. Where is that coming from? and why do I only get it when I hug Ben*
*Ben: theres that warmth again. Why does it only happen when I hug Mal I just met her today*
Mal: *awkwardly* Well, this was an interesting first day.
Ben: Actually, yours turned out better than when your friends came. But don't tell them I said that, especially Evie! She can be scary sometimes.
Mal: That she can. She just gave me this look, and there I was walking around the isle in a dress.
Ben: hehe. So um..if you ever need to talk, you know where to find me. Or just feel free to come here.
Mal: You wouldn't mind?
Ben: Of course not. I mean I should share it with someone right?
Mal: You haven't shown Evie?
Ben: Um...no...
Mal: Well, I feel honnored.
Ben: I'm sure. Well, come on, I don't need Fairygod mother trying to kill me.
Mal: yeah. But you'll stay when i talk to her right?
ben: only if you want me to.
Mal: I wouldn't have asked if I didn't
Ben: Right.
Well, that happened...I am starting to think I am realated to Maleficent. I just wrote the meanest chapter in the history of chapters. And I thought one of my other chapters for my other stories was cruel. But anyway, What did you think of the new development in Bal's realtionship? What did you think of Ben forgeting about Evie?And what did you think about Ben not showing Evie but showing Mal? I honestly love to hear what you guys have to say, it helps me figure out what I want next. Especially, if you give suggestions! So please leave some!
Lets Talk:
ScarletAvengerLauren: I am glad you liked the first chapter! And I hope you like this chapter, so let me know what you think of it!
starflight34: I am glad you 'love it'. As for Emila being Evie's sister, I am going to give you a little hint, it was in the last chapter, "she couldn't even look at her" It's not what you are thinking right now, she didn't have the same experience as Mal. But she did have something happen. As For the Mal Shower scene: You were actually pretty close, but I will let you know in the next chapter. And I hope you continue to think this is a great story, especially after this chapter.
Miss Fairytales: I am happy to hear that you find the story interesting. And I hope you find this formate easier to read, like I said at the top, I did find that format awkward so I am just going to be writing like this. Let me know if it is better.
Lady Hope 123: Well, here you go. And as far as updates go, I will probably being updating this story every Monday or Friday, maybe both. More than likely Monday though.
Until Next Time,
~Bella
