Confession Date

Your POV:

I had spent the night in Jane's dorm, as I had no desire to face my brother. was too mad at him. How dare he pick her over me! She's nothing but a troublemaker and bad news, and I'm his own flesh and blood. His twin for crying out loud!!!

Audrey came in as some point muttering insults at both Mal and Ben. Honestly, I hated Mal so much and I was so annoyed at my brother that I payed no mind to her. However, she started to get annoyed at the fact that Jane and I were ignoring her, so she came over and sat beside us and started talking about Tyler, the son of Princess Tiana and Prince Naveen, and how she was going to the coronation with him now, and how dreamy his was and blah, blah, blah. She just wouldn't stop talking. ' She sure got over my brother quick' I thought to myself.

I went to bed early, as Chad was taking me out on a date tomorrow and I was super excited.

(Time skip to Ben and Mal's date)

Mal's POV:

To my surprise I found myself enjoying Ben's company. He was romantic but I didn't want to throw up. What is wrong with me? He is sweet too, and he doesn't look at me like I'm a villain. He seems to enjoy getting to know me and as much as I want to deny it, I like getting to know him too.

"So what's up with your sister?" I asked Ben randomly. I know Carlos didn't want me to get involved but Y/n's sudden change in personality had caused me to become curious.

Ben sighed and shrugged. "I honestly don't know. It's like she's become this different person you know? Like before yesterday she had zero interest in Chad. Like at all. She never hated him, but that's just who she is. The day I see Y/n hate someone is the day I leave Auradon. And considering I'm gong to be king, well that's not likely to happen.We even got into a fight yesterday after the match. I've never seen her so unlike herself. It's like she's been brainwashed or something"

It was clear that Ben really cared for his sister. I wonder what that is like. To love someone that much that you can't help but worry for them even if they appear to hate you. "What were you fighting about?" I asked him.

"Well at the start it was about Chad, and then it was about you and the other VK's"

"But I thought she was all for this giving us a chance thing?" I was officially confused now. Y/n had been nothing but welcoming ever since we got here.

"She was, but now that I'm dating you she's gotten all paranoid because..." he stopped talking, rubbing his neck with the back of his hand.

"What's she paraanid about?"

"I-I can't say"

"Why not?"

"Because I'm not supposed to"

"Surely you can tell me though right? I mean I can keep a secret" I was batting my eyelashes at him. I didn't know why I wanted to know this secret so bad, but I had a feeling that is was somehow important.

Ben then went on to tell me all about the curse that he shared with his sister, and how it was the reason for the Isle of the Lost in the first place. He even told me about me the time that Y/n fell of her horse during ridding lessons one day, and how they had both ended up with a broken leg and crutches for a few months.

When he finished explaining, I was shocked. My mother had never told me of this curse, she only ever spoke about Sleeping Beauty and her prince. I was confused as to why she had never mentioned this to me before. I was brought out of my thoughts by a hand moving back and forth in front of my line of sight.

"Don't feel guilty Mal. It was your mother, not you. But could you please keep this to yourself? Only mum, dad and the fairy godmother knows and I would like to keep it that way"

I only nodded, as my thoughts were going haywire. Could this curse have anything to do with the love potion I used on Ben? Does the curse work like that? It would certainly explain Y/n's new odd obsession with Chad Charming. I need to talk to Evie about this before I till Jay and Carlos. I don't want to get his hopes up.

I decided to ignore this for for the time being and watched as Ben went to dive into the water. For once I was happy and not I'm not sure if I want to go ahead with the plan.

When he didn't resurface started to panic. I didn't want to be responsible for the death of the future King of Auradon and by extension the only other living heir. Or at least that's what I kept telling myself.In truth I was panicking and worrying over Ben's safety. I had actually began to care for him. Ignoring my brain's protests of not being able to swim, I headed out into the water looking for him.

However it was Ben who ended up saving me, and he carried me out of the water, laughing at my inability to swim.

"Don't you live on an island?" He asked me.

"Yeah, one surrounded by a magical barrier I reminded him.

Then we kissed.

Authors Note:

So I'm back finally. I was planning on releasing  a whole bunch of chapters to make up for my hiatus however that didn't go to plan, but I'm going to get them up as soon as possible.

I watched Descendants 3 and it's by far my favorite movie out of the three, I was in tears at the end when the video for Cameron came on, he was such an amazing angel

The reason Ben told Mal about the curse is because he was still under the spell at the time and he was so "in love" with Mal he would of told her anything I believe

Finally, I know my dialogue may be a bit different to the movies and I'm sorry for that
