Chapter 2
Mal's POV
10 minutes later Ben stopped in front of the Auradon Prep. We stepped out of the motorcycle and I put my shoes back on. I was about to return Ben's coat when he shook his head.
- No. Stay with it! I am not cold but you are! You can return it later… Or not – he said smiling.
- Fine – I agreed smiling too and wrapping the coat around me again. I really was cold. What else could I expect with the dress Evie had made me, which was beautiful, though I would never confess that her…
- Ready?
- Ready
Ben took my hand in his and we walked to where the party was being thrown. He could still hear the music and people laughing and talking. It was so nice.
In all my 16 years, I had never been to a party. I would never be invited to the other kids "birthday parties", if we could call them that, and I never had one. My mother thought parties were stupid and non-sense. Blame Sleeping Beauty's parents…
Anyway, again, although I would never confess it to anyone, I would love to have a party for me. It didn't need to be as big and as luxurious as Ben's but still one with the people who made me happy: my real family – Evie, Carlos and Jay -, and of course, Ben.
Sometimes it's hard to remember how life in the Island used to be when you live here in Auradon where you don't have to worry about anything like whether or not you will have dinner or to please your mom and where everything looks beautiful and nice, too much actually…
When we got to where the people were, I saw Ben's parents talking to the Fairy Godmother. They looked at him and sighed as if they were relieved to know he is okay.
He had been for what 30 minutes and they were so worried? Guess that's what normal parents do. Care about their kids, lover theirs, make chocolate chips cookies for their kids… All of the thing I never had while growing up…
While I whish I had had all of those thing, I also know that not having those things was what made me the person I am today and for that I kinda am glad. I would hate to be a spoiled princess like Audrey… So what people say is right, you are a reflex of what you have lived but not of who raised you because that is choice only you can make and I don't want to be like my mother.
Before, I thought being like my mother would make me happy, that gain the rest of my name was my life goal, but now having Ben and my friends and school I know that I don't want to be Maleficent. I am Mal. And I choose good.
Ben looked at me and said:
- I am going to talk to them. Don't worry, okay? Go and try to find Evie.
I nodded and saw him approach his parents.
I looked around trying to see if I could find Evie but I couldn't.
All of a sudden I saw a blue haired girl running in my direction and throwing herself at me.
- OMG, Mal! I was so worried! – Evie confessed squeezing me to her body.
- I am fine, E. No drama.
Jay and Carlos came closer too.
- Hey, Mal. Everything okay? – asked Carlos with Dude in his arms.
- Yessss! I am fine. Why are you all so worried about me?
- You know… After everything… - said Jay.
- Come on guys! I am fine. Just need some air. Too many people make nauseous.
- You sure? – insisted Carlos.
- Yes! – I said pushing gently Evie away from me. Again, here I was playing the thoug girl, but in the inside I felt so happy that they were worried about me!
- Why are you wearing Ben's coat? –asked Evie with a lifted brow.
- Ohhh… I was cold and he borrowed it.
- Yeah! I know, beauty hurts… - said Evie smiling. – Just so hapy you are okay. But you were with Ben so I kinda new you would be fine.
Jay and Carlos laughed and I felt myself blush a bit.
- Okay, enough attention on me! What about you guys?
- I am tired – said Jay – After so much dance and stuff…
- Yeah me too – agreed Carlos. – Guess I am going to bed now…
- Okay. Bye guys! – Evie and I said ate the same time.
After they walked away, Evie turned to me with the biggest smile ever.
- We are going to our dorm too because I want to know everything!
- What everything? There is nothing to know… - I asked confused.
- Sure… - said Evie rolling her eyes. – Go say goodnight to your King and then we are going to our dorm!
- Fine!
I saw that Ben was still with his parents as well as another couple. When he saw me looking at me he smiled. I pointed to the school letting him know I was going to bed. He turned to the people he was with said something quick and then came to where I was.
- Hi, Ben! – said Evie happily.
- Hey, Evie. See brought her back in one piece!
- I know you would – answered Evie smiling.
- Wait – I said lifting my arms – What you guys talking about?
- I went to see Evie before I went looking out for you. She told me you had gone get some fresh air.
- Ohhh… okay… So I am going to bed.
- Okay! Hope you enjoyed my party! Sweet dreams, Mal! - replied Ben. He then kissed my forehead and I smiled. – Good night, Evie!
- Thanks! For you too.
xXx
Evie and I were already in our dorm. I had gone to the bathroom to change and when I got out, she was sitting in my bed with the brightest smile.
- Okay… Why are looking at me like that?
- I want to know everything! Sit here! – she said touching the spot next to her.
- I don't know what you mean…
- Ohhhh… Come on, M.! Did you talk?
- Yes, we did.
- And believe you?
- You mean about me being good? Yes, he does.
- And did you kiss? – she said looking at me expectantly.
I looked at her with my mouth open and then shook my head.
- No, we didn't.
- You didn't… - she looked at me with a sad face – Why?
- Because we didn't, E. I don't think it's the right moment…
- Why not?
- I fell like… Like he will finally understand that I not worth him and then he will leave me… And I… I don't want to leave more hurt than necessary… - I confessed looking down. I was actually shocked with myself… It wasn't something that was really into confessing but Evie was like a sister so I felt comfortable enough with her.
- Oh, M. Don't be stupid – she said holding my hands. – Of course you are worth him! And Ben will never leave you! You are perfect together! Oh wait… Did he say anything? Because if he did…
It was my time to grab her hands.
- No, he didn't say anything. He is a sweetie… I just… I fell this…
- Mal, you are worth him as much as any girl. More actually because you saved him today. You protected him and chose to be at the right size because you love him. Not Audrey nor anyone could beat that!
- I guess you are kinda right…
- I am totally right! And I think you need to talking with him about this!
- I know. I wasn't into that just today… Tomorrow I will talk with him…
- Great! – said Evie smiling.
She got up and was about to sit in her bed when I remembered…
- What about, E.? I saw you were getting pretty well today…
- Well, you know I have that talent… But now being serious, he came to me and apologized for what happened at Family Day.
- And did you forgive him? Are you guys together?
- Yes and no! Yes, I did forgive him but no we are not together! I decided to make him suffer a bit for what he did in that day…
- So you "forgave" him? – I asked with my hand making inverted commas. She nodded and we giggled. – You evil girl!
We both laughed.
- But you like him? – I asked when he had stopped laughing.
- I think I do, Mal. – she said with a shy smile in her face. – He may not be a prince but he kind is a prince to me… Guess not everyone can get the king!
I blushed a little and threw her my pillow. And that's how we started our pillow fight…
