*this story is based during descendants 2. It follows Alexandra, Ben's twin sister and Belle and Adams only daughter.
AleX was betrothed to Ethan son of Ariel to ally the kingdoms and secure Alex a future as a queen. Only two weeks before her weddi...
Jay and Lonnie rode up front while Mal, Alex, Ben, Evie, Carlos, Ethan and Dude rode in the back.
"Oh thank god you're okay Alex." Evie leant swamped her in a hug.
"Yeah Thanks for getting me out of there guys." Alex blushed.
"We wouldn't have had to if you hadn't tried to run away." Ben huffed.
"Ben that's not fair...." Mal started.
"You two put our kingdom in danger with this little adventure of yours."
"This 'little adventure' was actually suppose to be long term for Mal Ben, you've been so caught up in being our parents you have completely neglected your girlfriend, your friends, I don't know the last time we actually spent time together when it wasn't at some meeting or royal dinner. We used to be so close now I feel like I don't even know you, you've turned into someone cold and I don't like this version of you Ben." Alex was furious.
"I may be like our parents but Alex your reckless, childish and irresponsible it's about time you learn we don't live in a fairy tale, life isn't going to always go your way, we are royalty we have to make sacrifices for our kingdom life isn't fair for us. Its about time you grow up !" Ben's voice was course and harsh.
"You don't think I know that! Ive given up so much for this role I never even wanted! Ive given up more than you could even know Ben! I never asked for any of this I'd give anything to just be normal and that may be selfish but it's the truth for once in my life I don't want to be Belle and Adams daughter, king Bens twin, princess of Auradon. I want to be just plain Alex the girl who was in charge of her own future." Alex eyes glazed over as she refused to let the tears that had build leave her eyes instead she blinked them away.
"What like that pirate?! Yeah I saw how you looked at him Alex, you may not like it but you are the princess of Auradon you cant run off to go play romance with villains!" Ben was practically growling.

"You know what Ben yes I liked him alright ! I was reckless to run away and follow my heart but I don't regret it at all! You used to believe everyone was worth saving and now you're turning your back on the people who love you the most, I may be irresponsible but atlease I'm staying true to myself. I Will never turn my back on our people like you have." Alex was shaking and had to clench her hands together to resist knocking some sense into her brother.
"Your a embarrassment to our family!" Ben yelled before huffing and turning his attention to out the window, knowing his sister wouldn't back down.
"You're nothing but a puppet." Alex huffed looking out her window.
"Awkward.." Dude spoke up making Alex aware that they wasn't alone in the car. In that moment she just wanted the ground to swallow her up, she could feel all eyes on her one pair standing out burning holes into her soul. Ethan. She had just confessed to liking Harry to the guy she was supposed to marry.
"Dude no, just because you can talk doesn't mean you should." Carlos and Evie fumbled at the dog trying to hush him.
The rest of the limo ride was silent and awkward. But when the group got back to school Jane came running up to then in the gardens.
"Oh Ben!" She called as she rushed across the grassy field clip board in hand. "I just had some questions about cotillion." Mal and Ben answered a few quick questions before he left and the Evie and Mal went to go talk But was stopped by the boys. Alex said her goodbyes to Lonnie before noticing Ethan walking back towards his dorm.
"Ethan!" She called jogging over to the boy who swamped her in height. "I should explain."
"You don't have to." He tried to dismiss it as if it was nothing.
"I do though Ethan, please just hear me out." He nodded before the two toke a seat on the near by bench. "Neither of us asked for this." She gestured gingerly at their rings. "We was only babies when it was all planned out, our parents planned every detail out for us before we had even met. I like you Ethan your one of my closest friends but I don't think we ever fell in love with each other. It doesn't warrant what I did by running away and things with Harry and for that I really am so sorry..." Once Alex started her feeling just flowed out.
"Alex I'm not mad..." Alex looked up confused at his words only to be more confused when he looked more nervous than she did.
"Ethan what's wrong?" Alex knew straight away he was holding a secret of his own.
"As you said this wedding was formed by our parents before we even grew up, before we even formed our own personality's and identities. My parents wanted the alliance so much, to have a princess of Auradon in the family is everything to them. But love isn't easy is it?" Ethan was stumbling over his words so Alex rested her hand on his arm to support him he soon found himself lost in her blue eyes. "I'm gay Alex, I just don't want to let my parents down so I kept it to myself."
"Ethan you should tell them they wouldn't think any differently of you, you should be proud to be who you truly are." Alex smiled happy he had opened up to her.
"As Ben said we have a role to play Alex, we have to unite our kingdoms, we'll be a step closer to bringing isle kids over to Auradon. That was always our goal Lex, if you're still willing to marry me I think nothing should change."
"But Ethan.." Alex resisted.
"Alex they need us to make the first step, we are royals we don't get happy endings." Ethan stated.
"Okay... we'll do it for the isle." Alex finally agreed.
"Thank you Alex, I couldn't be marrying a better girl." He nudged her playfully.
"I guess it's not awful marrying one of my best friends." Alex let herself smile.
A/n- so that happened Harry's in the works and Ethan is gay.
