Hey guys, we only have a couple of chapters left! Woo! I hope that I will be able to post soon; but it totally depends on working on other stories and other unrelated commitments. Much love RSD xoxoxoxoxo.

A couple of weeks had passed and I had now returned to Schwatzwald for the last time; I had finished at the cafe and I had now been released from university. So all I had to do now was to pack my things together and say goodbye to everyone; I had planned to leave next week. This would give me enough time to get everything sorted here; I had to sign agreements to say that I had left the flat and it was now Sam's. It made everything seem final but me and Sam were both determined to make our last week perfect. I had told Sam countless times, just like Evie, that he could visit and he wanted to do this and couldn't wait to see everyone again.

It was now Wednesday morning and after having a lie in I decided to start packing my things; Ben had paid for my things to be shipped over to Auradon. However I didn't really need to take everything with me; as there was already a bed and other furniture in my room at Auradon Castle so certain things were getting left here. However if I wanted to take anything back in particular it was coming back with me. As I was packing my books into a box I heard my phone go off and I looked at it and noticed that it was a withheld number. I wonder who this could be? I thought to myself as I answered the phone.

"Hello" I answered uncertainly.

"Good morning, I'm Caroline Burton I'm ringing from Auradon Graphic Designs. Is this Mal Faery?" I heard someone say. I sighed to myself as I knew that I was waiting for a couple of companies to ring me; but this was the job that I wanted the most. I started to get really nervous as this could go either way. In all honesty when I left the interview I thought that I had ruined my chances; Ben had tried to calm me down but I couldn't stop the lingering thought that I had ruined my interview.

"Yeah. Hi. I've been waiting for your call. Thank you for ringing me back" I answered politely.

"You're very welcome. I'm just ringing to let you know that you have been successful in getting the post of one of our new Graphic Designers" Caroline said happily. My face dropped in shock - I had managed it. I resisted the urge to shriek down the phone as I reminded myself that I had to remain professional.

"Wow!" I finally said.

"I mean thank you so much!" I quickly added.

"You're very welcome. You're start date isn't until the seventh of September; you will be joining a completely new team and department but we look forward to working with you" Caroline advised.

"I can't wait to work with you as well. Thanks again" I said happily as I still couldn't believe it. I couldn't wait to tell Ben!

"You're very welcome again Miss Faery. Our HR department will send you everything to your email but I will be in touch shortly to get further information from you" she advised.

"I look forward to hearing from you" I replied.

"Same. Speak soon" Caroline answered.

"Speak soon. Bye" I said and then Caroline ended the call. I stood in silence for a few minutes just clutching my phone to my chest before I heard a voice.

"I take it that you got the job then?" I heard Sam say. I turned around to look at him and noticed that he was leaning against my door fame.

"Yes" I confirmed as the shock was still with me.

"Well done girl" Sam said as he quickly walked into my room and pulled me into a hug.

"It looks like everything is going my way" I said happily as I still couldn't believe my luck over the last two month.

"Well you deserve it" Sam said as he pulled away and looked into my eyes.

"Thanks" I replied.

"I'm going to tell Ben now" I informed him as I stepped away from him and jumped onto my bed.

"Ok well I will leave you to it" I heard Sam chuckle as he left my room, closing the door behind him so I could have some privacy when I spoke to Ben.

"Can't wait until later to speak to me?" I heard Ben say as he appeared on the screen of my phone.

"No" I stated which made him laugh.

"I need to tell you something" I advised.

"Oh" he said and his face dropped.

"Is something wrong?" He asked and I saw him pick his phone up from where he had it balanced so he could speak to me better.

"No" I said shaking my head as I large grin started to spread on my face.

"Why are you grinning like that?" Ben questioned.

"I got the job" I admitted. I saw Ben's eyes widen at my admission and then he started to grin at me.

"The one you wanted?" He asked.

"Aha" I said as I nodded.

"Congratulations!" He said proudly.

"Thank you" I answered.

"You're welcome" he replied as his grin got larger.

"Why are you grinning like that?" I asked.

"Well now you have a job in Auradon you don't need to stay in Schwatzwald" he answered.

"Ben even if I didn't get a job I was still going to come home" I said as I pulled one brow up.

"I know" he replied.

"But you were still worried though?" I questioned.

"Of course" he advised.

"Mal I'm always going to be scared of losing you again" he admitted sadly.

"Ben I'm not going anywhere" I said with a small smile hoping that this would reassure him.

"I have my full life planned and you are at the centre of it" I added.

"Good to know" he said with a grin.

"Not long till you come back" he stated.

"Yeah I've started to pack things away" I said as I flipped the camera on my phone and showed him before flipping it back around onto my face.

"Thanks for sorting out the shipping for me" I said happily.

"Anything to get you over here" he joked.

"Really?" I laughed as I pulled one brow up.

"Yep" he laughed.

"What are you like?" I said as I giggled as I shook my head which made my purple locks bounce slightly.

"When's your night out?" He asked changing the subject.

"On Saturday" I advised.

"Then I'm flying on Monday" I said as I winked at him.

"I'll be waiting at the airport" he stated as he pulled a face. I grinned and bit down on my tongue and I resisted the urge to laugh at him.

"Can't wait to see you" he added.

"Me neither" I admitted. I wasn't lying. What I wanted to do right now was to cuddle into Ben but there was no way of me doing this - well I could go home early but I still had a few final things to sort out.

"No more Face time or Skype" he teased.

"Yeah it's good so I can see you but I would prefer to be cuddling you" I admitted which made him grin.

"Well that's because my cuddles are awesome" he stated smugly.

"Of course" I agreed.

"I miss getting hugs from my cuddly Dragon as well" he said which made me grin at him.

"I'm so glad my earphones are in so Sam didn't overhear that" I said as I felt my cheeks start to heat up.

"I wouldn't care if he did" Ben stated as a smug grin started to spread across his face.

"I know you wouldn't" I laughed as I watched as his grin turned into a smirk.

"So how was your day?" I said quickly changing the subject which led into a four hour face time before Ben had to go into a meeting with the Charmings. As I ended the call one thought crossed my mind - I love Ben, and nothing or no one was ever going to change that.
