The Big Coronation.

~AURADON CATHEDRAL~

{NO ONE'S POV}

Snow White spoke through the tv, "At last, here we are, broadcasting live from the coronation where Prince Benjamin will soon be crowned King. I'm Snow White, bringing you up to the second coverage of who's the fairest of them all!"

The Evil Queen threw popcorn at the tv, "I'm Snow White." Evie's mother mocked her rival, "Who are you kidding? She's definitely had work done."

Maleficent snapped her head to look at the Queen next to her in shock and confusion.

Classical music played in the background as everyone gathered in the cathedral. Fairy Godmother stood with the wand.

"Oh. Fairy Godmother is looking radiant. But what is happening with Jane's hair?" The tv showed Jane looking lost as people laughed, complementing each other. "And there is Fairy Godmother's wand!"

The wand appeared on the tv and Maleficent leant towards it, "I want that wand!"

"Do you? Hadn't heard." Cruella sarcastically spoke, earning a slight glare from Maleficent.

"Oh, and here comes Ben now!" Snow cheerfully said as Ben and Mal were in a carriage waving to the crowd.

Mal sits next to Ben looking at her lap, with a small blue box in her hands. Ben looks at Mal, taking one of her hands, he gave her a gentle smile. "Don't be nervous." Mal looked up, "All you have to do is sit there and look beautiful. No problem there."

Mal smiled, looking down at her and Ben's interlocked hands. "Thank you."

There was a silence between the two for a minute before Ben spoke up again, "Mal, would you wear my ring?"

"Um..." Mal pulled her hand anyway from Ben's. "Not now. I think it would probably just fall right off of me." Mal pushed a smile out.

"I have something for you." Mal snapped her head back to Ben.

Ben was surprised, "For me?"

"Yeah. It's just for later, you know, when you need strength." Mal nodded along as she talked. "Some carbs to keep up your energy."

"Always thinking." Ben says before the both of them chuckle. "But I can't wait." Ben picks the small cupcake Mal made last night.

Mal jumps, "No!"

Ben hums as he eats, "Mmm. This is really good."

"Uh... Do you..." Mal stutters nervously.

"Mal?"

"Do you feel okay?"

"You bet." Ben nods.

Mal looks slightly confused, "Would you say that you're still in... that..." Mal pauses as Ben licks his fingers. "That you still have very strong feelings for me?"

"I'm not sure." Ben pauses, "I mean, let's give the anti-love potion a few minutes to take effect."

"Okay." Mal nods before realising, "What." Ben laughs. "What? You knew?"

"That you spelled me? Yeah. Yeah. I knew."

"I'm... I can explain myself." Mal panics as she talks.

"No, look, it's fine. I mean, you had a crush on me. I was with Audrey. You didn't trust it could happen on its own. Am I right?" Ben looks at Mal as she looks forward.

"Yes. You're so right." Mal plays along. Mal looks at Ben, "So, then, how long have you known?"

"Since our first date." Ben says truthfully. "Your spell washed away in the enchanted lake."
