Carlos P.O.V

It's almost time. The limo is going to pull up soon. We can do this. Even though neither me or Jay could sleep last night. We were too anxious about today. We're all standing in front of the school, like how they were when we came.

"You guys ready?" I ask the group. Mal & Evie look at me while Jay keeps looking ahead.

"I guess. We are all prepared if anything goes wrong." Mal assures me. Yeah. Sure. I'm not scared of Gil, gotta keep telling myself that.

"Jay? Are you alright? You've been quiet all morning." Evie asks him. He looks over at her. "Yea. I'm good. Just…. Trying to keep my temper in check. I know if I don't, and then I see Gil, I'm gonna lose it." He says, squeezing my hand. I look up at him and kiss his cheek. "Everything will be just fine".

The AKs walk over to us. "Hey guys. You all set?" Jane asks. We all nod. "Jay! My man! How was your night? Sounded like you had a blast! You keep forgetting the walls are like paper thin." Chad comes up and pats him on the back.

I instantly blush. When Jay said I was his, he meant it. As soon as we entered the room, I knew I was doomed. My chest and neck are covered in hickeys. Jay definitely made his mark. I pull my collar up, trying to hide them.

"Don't be ashamed Carlos. We all know that Jay placed his claim. He's a very possessive person." Lonnie says, smirking. Did I ever mention I hate all of them?

"Oh shut up. You act like Ben's any better. You guys know he made his claim. Mr Princey isn't all innocent." I say, looking over at him and Mal. Mal smirks, pulling down her collar, showing a bunch of hickeys. "Oh, he's definitely not. When I told him about Harry, I think something sparked in his brain." She said.

"What can I say? Jay and Chad are rubbing off on me. They aren't great influences." He says, shrugging. We all start to laugh. I'm gonna miss this. Once that limo gets here, everything is gonna change.

"Guys. The limo gets here in 5 minutes." Audrey says, looking at her phone. Suddenly, we hear the band start playing and the sound of a car. The limo came early.

"It's here." I say.

The limo comes to a stop. Fairy godmother goes up and opens the door. Out steps Uma first. She looks the same as when I last saw her, a permanent smirk on her face. I look over at Mal. She's gripping Ben's hand.

Then Queenie steps out. Her head's much smaller than I remember, and she looks a lot prettier. Oh no. I look at Evie. She has a look of shock on her face.

Next is Gil. He immediately looks around the crowd, until his eyes land on me. He smiles. Most people would find it sincere, but I know it's not. Jay grips my hand and clenches his other fist. "It's okay, Jay. Breathe." I whisper to him. He loosens his grip and takes a deep breath.

Finally, Harry steps out. Damn. He looks, well, a lot different than before. He was always good looking, but now. Wow. He looks sexy as ever. Jay can never know I thought that.

"Welcome to Auradon Prep. I am Fairy Godmother." FG announces. The VKs try smiling sincerely, but it's so fake. "It's a pleasure to meet you Fairy Godmother. But if it's okay. We would like to catch up with our friends. You know, the kids you brought last year." Harry says. We didn't tell Fairy Godmother about what happened. Crap! She smiles.

"Of course. We want you as comfortable as possible while you're here." She beckons us forward. "I'll leave you to it then." She leaves. Ben goes forward. "It's a pleasure to meet you all. I am Ben. This is Chad, Lonnie, Jane, Doug, and Audrey." He points at each of the AKs. "And I'm sure you know the other VKs."

Harry walks up to Mal. Oh no.

Mal P.O.V

"Baby. Hey. It's been so long. I've missed you." He leans in to kiss me. I push his face away. "We're over. Through. Done. I tried to tell you this on the Isle." I tell him. He laughs. "Oh. You weren't serious. You love me." I walk over to Ben, grabbing his hand. "I love Ben now. So how about you go to Uma."

He frowns, then smirks. "Oh well. Didn't need you anyways. You were never a good fuck anyways." He struts over to Uma. "Oh and Ben. I hope you know that your little girlfriend right there, how do I put this gently. She's a slut, she practically begged me for sex."

I can feel Ben's grip tightening. Please don't let him get to you. Please don't let him get to you. I keep repeating in my head. "I'm going to ignore that little comment so that I don't mash your brain in." He says, cheerfully. I can't help but let out a laugh. Even threatening people, he still sounds happy. Harry rolls his eyes.

I look over at Evie, checking if Queenie tried anything. "Hi Evie! Look! Uma found a potion to shrink my head. So now I'm much prettier than you. And what a shame. You're still a pig. Too bad." She laughs. Then she looks at Doug. "And you got yourself a dwarf! Ha! I knew it! No prince would go for you!" She skips off, standing with Uma and Harry.

"Mal, don't." I hear Evie say. I hadn't noticed, but my hand was glowing green and most likely my eyes were too. They laughed. "Us? Scared of Mal? Ha!" Uma says. That's it. I rip my hand away from Ben's, and mumble a spell. Suddenly, Queenie's head is back to it's hugeness. She screams. "What have you done!"

Evie starts laughing. So does some of the other AKs. Ben gives me a look. "Change her back Mal." I mumble again and slowly her head changes back. I suddenly remember Gil. I turn around and look at Carlos.

Carlos P.O.V

While the other VKs are dealing with each other, Gil walks over to me. I hear Jay growl. I look up at him. "It's okay Baby. I got this." I let go of his hand and walk closer to Gil. He smiles. "I knew you'd come back to me." He says.

Suddenly, all the pain and suffering comes back to me. Next thing I know, my fist is connected with his face. "I'll never go back to you. Ever! You hear me!" I've never been so angry. "Don't ever touch me again. I'm not scared of you anymore. I refuse to let you bully me!" I go back over to Jay, grabbing his hand.

"You're serious? You left me, for him? Wow. I knew you were pathetic. Didn't think you were stupid." He says. Can't stop Jay now. He kicks Gil in the dick. "If I were you, I'd think long about who you're talking to. Carlos isn't afraid of you and can fight you off. But I'll always be there you to kick your ass after."

We all walk off, leaving the new VKs and Ben behind. He's supposed to give them a tour, but after that, I wouldn't be surprised if he showed them their rooms and left.

"That went better than expected." Evie says. We nod. It honestly did. "It could've gone better. They're in their rooms. I called FG to show them. I was about ready to kick Harry's teeth in." Ben walks up behind us. I laugh. Knew it.

"This is just the beginning. Just you guys have to promise. No matter what you hear, what they say about us. Always ask us first. Don't listen to anything they say until you talk to us first. Okay?" Jay says.

"We promise." They all say. This is gonna be interesting.
