Ooooooh suspense, sorry but I couldn't resist! Let's jump straight into it! Much love RSD xoxoxoxo.

I wanted to roll my eyes at my middle name but I stopped myself. I grinned at Ben; it was like fireworks had been set off in my chest. Ben had just told me that he loved me and he wanted to get back together. I couldn't believe it; I was over the moon that I had managed to get him back.

"Yes" I said.

"Yes Benjamin Florian Adams" I said again happily. I watched as a large grin spread across his face and I then pulled him into another hug.

"Do I really have you back?" I asked over his shoulder.

"Yes" he confirmed as he tightened his arms around my waist. Happy tears gathered in my eyes; I had Ben back! I couldn't believe how everything can change in a short space of time. Within the last hour I had been adamant that I was going to leave Auradon but now I knew that I was coming back as I had now got back together with Ben. I just couldn't believe how lucky I was; I got a second chance with Ben and I knew one thing for definite - I wasn't going to let him go this time.

"My Ben" I said as I tightened my arms around his neck.

"My Mal" he replied happily as he tightened his arms around my waist. I smiled against his face and then made a decision; I was going to let him in on my secret. I had no reason to hide it from him now; I wanted him to know.

"Ben" I started.

"There's something else that I need to tell you" I said as I pulled away from him.

"Ok sounds serious" he noted as his face dropped into confusion.

"It is" I confirmed. I felt Ben's hands stroke my sides as he started to stare in my eyes.

"Ben I'm graduating in six month but I'm not coming back in six month" I advised.

"What?" He quickly asked as he started to panic.

"But we just got back together" he stated. I felt his hands tighten on my sides like he was scared to let me go.

"Ben" I said as I cupped the right hand side of his face.

"Let me finish" I said smiling at him.

"I'm coming back early" I admitted.

"What?" He asked incredulously.

"I'm coming back in two months time" I advised with a large grin.

"What?" He asked again.

"I'm coming home" I announced happily. Ben stared at me for a few seconds and he then pulled me into a tight hug. I felt him snuggle into my hair and I heard him sigh.

"Mal" he said into my hair.

"You're really coming home?" He asked. I pulled away and looked into his leaf green eyes.

"Yes for the next eight or nine weeks I'll be going backwards and forwards and when I go back for my graduation you can come with me" I answered happily.

"Yes" he said as he rested his forehead against mine.

"My smart beautiful fairy" he said smiling.

"Yes yours" I said as I started to play with the hair on the back of his head.

"Mal there's something I want to do" he admitted.

"But you can stop me" he stated.

"Ok, what do you want to do?" I asked.

"This" he said and he moved his face slightly and pushed his lips against mine. I fell into shock for a couple of seconds but I then moved my lips against his and I fell into the kiss. My heart started to pound in my chest and my stomach fluttered and it felt like me and Ben had never been away from each other. Being with Ben was as easy as breathing and I loved that. This showed that me and Ben were meant to be together - no amount of time was ever going to change this.

"I see" I breathed after he pulled away and I watched as his mouth spread into a large toothy grin.

"Ben" I said cheekily.

"Yes" he chuckled.

"Come back here" I said as I pulled on his blazer and pulled him back to me so our lips collided again. I wanted to feel Ben's lips on mine again as we deepened the kiss I felt Ben's hand cup my face. I pulled away for a second but Ben quickly kissed me again and I smiled against his lips as he wanted to kiss me just as much as I wanted to kiss him. After kissing until we felt an ache in our lungs we finally pulled away and grinned at each other.

"I want to take it slow Ben; we have just got back together I don't want to ruin everything but rushing things" I admitted as we tried to regulate our breathing.

"I agree" he said as he brushed his thumb along my bottom lip.

"I can't believe I've got you back" he said incredulously.

"Same" I agreed.

"I love you Mal" he said proudly.

"I love you Ben" I replied proudly back.

"Now everything is sorted between us; I think we need to sort them two co-conspirators out" I said finally taking my eyes off Ben and looking at the door.

"How?" He asked.

"Let's prank them" I said as I started to smirk at him.

"Ok how?" He questioned.

"We argue?" I suggested.

"Still a joker I see" he chuckled.

"Always" I laughed.

"Just remember I don't mean any of this" I said as I planted a kiss on his lips.

"Same baby" he said as he kissed my cheek.

"We'll kiss and make up later though right?" He asked as he smirked as I unwilling stepped out of his arms.

"Yeah" I said he stood in front of me.

"WELL AT LEAST I KNOW WHERE I STAND NOW!" I shouted at him. Ben grinned at me and I winked at him; I knew that Sam and Evie would start to panic now that I had started to shout at Ben.

"YOU HAVE JUST MADE THIS A HELL OF A LOT EASIER FOR ME!" I roared as Ben turned the music off and put his phone into his pocket.

"YEAH WELL ME TOO!" Ben shouted back as he started to play along.

"Mal are you ok in there?" I heard Evie ask.

"LET ME OUT!" I called out to them.

"THIS WAS A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME!" I shouted. I heard the door unlock and open and I pretended to storm out and Ben followed me with a scowl on his face. I noted that both Sam and Ben looked worried as they watched me and Ben walk into the kitchen that was leading towards the apartment door.

"YOU KNOW WHAT BEN?" I shouted as I turned and looked at him.

"WHAT?" He spat angrily.

"WELL AT LEAST I CAN GO BACK TO COLLEGE KNOWING THAT IT WAS POINTLESS EVEN COMING BACK!" I stated angrily.

"I DONT NEED TO COME BACK NOW" I added.

"EVER!" I snapped.

"FINE!" He snapped back. I heard Evie gasp and I knew what she was thinking; instead of helping she had made things worse. She was now going to think that I really wasn't going to come back home now.

"GOOD!" I snapped.

"Mal" I heard Evie said.

"HAPPY NOW THE PAIR OF YOU?" I shouted angrily as I turned and looked at the pair of them.

"GOT WHAT YOU WANTED?" I mocked.

"Mal calm down" Sam said as he stepped towards me to try and pacify me. I could see that he regretted interfering but it was now too late.

"WHO ARE YOU?" Ben shouted at Sam. I watched as Sam started to ball his fists up and I knew that me and Ben could only push a little bit further before Sam snapped.

"WHY ARE YOU EVEN GETTING INVOLVED FOR?" Ben snapped at Sam

"I'M MALS FRIEND!" He snapped back as he took one step towards him.

"YEAH" Ben shouted slowly.

"DONT YOU DARE TALK TO HIM LIKE THAT BECAUSE HE FIXED THE MESS YOU CAUSED!" I shouted bitterly.

"BEN YOU NEED TO COOL DOWN!" I shouted and I got so stuck in the moment and I picked up Evie's glass of wine and I threw it in Ben's face. We all gasped at me doing this; I tried not to laugh nervously as I had given myself a shock as well.

"MAL!" Ben shouted angrily shouted as he shook himself.

"I'm sorry baby" I said as I put the glass down and picked up a cloth and started to wipe the wine from his face.

"Baby?" I heard Evie say I looked at her and noticed that she was now smirking. I looked up at Ben and we both broke out in laughter; I saw Sam's eyes widen as he noticed that me and Ben were only joking.

"Your two faces" I said as I handed Ben the cloth and he started to clear his face and clothes from the red wine that I had just threw at him.

"Were a picture" Ben finished for me. He grinned and he offered me a high five and I quickly slapped my hand against his.

"Does this mean?" Evie asked.

"Yes" I said nodding at her.

"Sam I think I need to introduce you properly" I advised.

"This is Ben, my boyfriend" I said proudly as I slanted my head to the side slightly as I looked at Ben.

"Nice to meet you" Ben said shaking Sam's hand as he used his other hand to place the cloth on the bench.

"Likewise" Sam said.

"However" he said as he tightened his hand on Ben's as he tried to pull it away.

"Hurt her again and I'll hurt you" he warned sternly.

"King or no King" he added.

"Sam" I warned him. I didn't want him to change anything that had just happened between me and Ben. I knew that Ben wouldn't run a mile at Sam's reaction, well I had hoped. Both me and Ben had changed a lot in the last year; this was another reason why I wanted to take it slow. We both needed to get to know each other again; but I know we would make it work. We both loved each other endlessly. I loved for the look that Ben still had in his eyes when he looked at me; I couldn't help but grinning like an idiot every time he looked at me.

"No it's ok Mal" Ben said politely.

"I promise I won't hurt her Sam, I never wanted to in the first place. But we were in a difficult situation" Ben advised.

"Good and I do understand why you did it" Sam said as he finally let go of Ben's hand.

"Dinner anyone?" Evie said happily as she looked around us all.

"Yes" we chorused which made her giggle. I quickly stole a glance at Ben and noticed that he was looking at me and I grinned back at him. Yes I'm glad that I came over here tonight; otherwise I wouldn't have my soul mate back. This time nothing or no one was going to break us apart.
