Another exhausting Friday night. Mal was groggy and her eyes were struggling to stay open. She zombie-walked to her bed and collapsed onto it. She groaned as she looked back at the day she's had.

Evie, who was sitting at her desk, watched her. "Rough day?" She asked. Mal sighed. "You have no idea," she answered. She stared at the pink sheets of fabric above her bed.

"Hm," Evie said as she slightly frowned, looking down at her homework. They both had been really busy lately. Mal's been going on lunches with Ben and his parents and having art club meetings while Evie has been busy sewing clothes for her friends and studying. They have a free day off tomorrow.

'Tomorrow,' Evie thought. A small smile formed on her face. She looked back at Mal. "How about tomorrow you and I have a girls day?" she asked.

Mal turned her head to face Evie. "A girls day?" she asked. "Yeah. We can get mani-pedis, talk about guys, get froyo..all that stuff," Evie explained.

Mal was intrigued by the idea. She sat up and let her legs fall at the side of the bed. "Alright. Let's have a girls day," she said, making Evie smile even bigger.

"Great! I'll start picking out an outfit," Evie stated happily. Mal smiled nervously and got up to take a shower.

'What have I gotten myself into?' she thought, beginning to worry.

xXx

Twas the next day and all through the dorm, Evie looked in her full-length mirror and grinned. Her knee-length dark blue dress looked shimmery. She decided to wear a black leather jacket with it and black boots with gold studs decorated on. She also wore a little tiara in her hair. And of course, to complete it all, she wore her red ruby heart necklace.

Evie turned around. She had packed a basket full of food for her and Mal. Mal came out of the bathroom. She didn't put much effort to her outfit since she thought it was just another day.

She wore a light purple shirt with black dragon wing-like sleeves and green pants with black claw-shaped stripes. She had on a dark purple leather jacket with black accents over her shirt and wore her fingerless gloves. Her shoes were black with dark green spray paint on it.

"Looks like you still got some villain in you, M," Evie half-complimented half-protested. Mal scoffed. "I do not. I..just...," she looked down at her clothes. "This is my style, E," she defended.

"Alright then. Let's get going," Evie said. She put on her box-shaped purse and headed out the door, Mal following closely behind with the basket.

As they walked through the halls, they heard a wolf whistle. Evie stopped and turned her head to the side. She and Mal saw Jay and Carlos. "Where are you two going?" Jay asked.

"To the enchanted lake," Mal answered. "For a girls day," Evie added. Mal felt a little embarrassed that she would agree to do something so girly and blushed slightly, looking away from her friends. Evie, on the other hand, was confident and proud of it.

Jay smirked when he saw Mal blush slightly. "Hey Evie, don't forget to take a lot of pictures. We don't want to miss seeing Mal painting her fingernails pink," he teased. Mal's eyes widened and she turned her head back quickly.

She glared at Jay, silently threatening him. His only reaction was to laugh. He chuckled a little and said, "Have fun, you two," he said and began walking away. Carlos waved goodbye before following Jay.

Evie waved in response to Carlos' wave. She and Mal started walking again. The walk to the enchanted lake was long, but was worth it. The water sparkled as always and the sun made the old gazebo shine.

"Wow. It's always like this," Evie said. She stared at the scenic nature in front of her. "So...magical," she added. She grinned and turned to face Mal. Mal noticed her best friend smiling so she smiled back.

The two walked down to the old gazebo and set up their picnic. Evie laid down a blanket and began taking things out of the basket. She set down a bowl of strawberries, which caught Mal's attention. She began scarfing down the delicious red fruit. Evie had finished setting up their picnic and she stared at the glistening water in front of her.

Mal had stopped eating the strawberries once the bowl was half full. "So E, what do you have planned?" she asked. "Well, we could talk about some stuff," Evie suggested.

"Like you and a certain brown-haired king?" she hinted that she wanted to talk about Ben. Mal put on a 'seriously?' face. Evie just smiled. Mal sighed and got herself more comfortable.

"Fine, if you insist," she said. "What do you wanna know?"

"Well, for starters, how have you two been doing?" Evie asked before she took a bite of her sandwich. Mal immediately knew the answer to that.

"We're doing good. Not much changing. What about you and Doug?" Mal asked.

"I don't know. Do study dates count?" She asked. Mal chuckled at her answer. She sighed and took in her surroundings. She was sitting in and old gazebo with her best friend having a girls day.

"Do you remember how we were back in the Isle of the Lost?" Mal asked. Evie gained interest and put down her sandwich.

"You didn't invite me to your sixth birthday party, then my mom banished you and your mom, and then after ten years you came back and I hated you," Mal said, making Evie feel a bit of guilt for not inviting her to her birthday party.

"And then I trapped you in Cruella's fur closet and you almost got killed if it weren't for kind-hearted little Carlos," Mal continued. She spoke as if it wasn't such a big deal.

"And then," she kept rambling on, making Evie feel uncomfortable. "I almost had you cursed to fall asleep for a thousand years," Mal chuckled at that thought.

Evie stared at her confused and hurt. Mal acted as if the past was nothing. Evie had suffered ten years of banishment, bullying from Mal and Jay, almost getting killed by bear traps, and almost sleeping for a thousand years, and all that was just hilarious to Mal.

"It's not funny," Evie spoke up. Mal stopped smiling. "I could have been sleeping for a thousand years while you and the boys lived here in Auradon having the time of your lives. I could have missed learning that beauty isn't all that matters. I could have missed choosing good. And you're laughing about it," Evie said sternly. She frowned at that last part.

Mal was surprised. She never knew Evie thought that. She thought Evie would just laugh along with her.

"Evie, that was in the past. I mean besides, all that wouldn't have happened if you had just invited me to your birthday party," Mal said, smiling in hopes that Evie would just let the negative feelings go.

"So you're blaming me?" Evie questioned. Her voice sounded threatening and something told Mal that this wasn't going to end pretty.

Evie stood up and said, "I'm sorry if my mom thought being mean meant being nice." Mal stood up and frowned.

"That's what you're going with right now? It's not opposite day," she retorted. "On the Isle, every day was opposite day," Evie stated.

"I wanted you to be my friend. I did anything for you just so you would like me. Carlos was the only one who cared about me. You and Jay kept on making me feel like I needed to prove myself to you!" Evie ranted.

Mal felt a shot of anger rushing through her. Evie saw Mal's eyes glowing. That was never a good sign. Without warning, Mal shoved Evie into the lake. Evie yelped as she fell into the cold water.

Mal couldn't help but smirk. She turned around to enjoy her picnic, but a hand grabbed her ankle and pulled her in. "Whoa!" Her eyes stopped glowing.

With a splash, she instantly became soaking wet. Evie laughed at the purple-haired teen. Mal growled and sighed in disgust. "Refreshing," she said with a strained voice.

She softened her frown after seeing Evie smile. Mal innocently smiled back then sprinkled water in Evie's face. Evie wiped away the water in disgust.

"Hey, I'm sorry for not inviting you to my sixth birthday party," Evie apologized. "And I'm sorry for torturing you and almost ruining your life," Mal also apologized. They smiled at each other.

The two enjoyed the feel of the cool water flowing around them. Luckily, they were in the shallow part of the lake so they wouldn't drown.

"Do you wanna go get some froyo?" Mal asked. "Definitely," Evie answered cheerfully.

Hope you guys enjoyed that. Next one will be about Carlos and Jane. And if some of you are offended by my idea of a girls day, I'm sorry I don't know how one of those go. I'm a girl, by the way.
