We Belong - a Descendants story (Bal)

Chapter 3

3th POV

'And? Is she there?' Jay asked Ben, as soon as he walked out of the chip shoppe again.

'Oh, yes, she's there,' Ben said, in a kind of sad tone.

'What's- what's wrong then?' Evie asked, not understanding his mood.

'It appears that she has already found someone else,' Ben said, walking further, just wanting to go home.

'Someone else?' Carlos asked rather confusedly.

'Yeah, that pirate with the eyeliner was all over her,' Ben said, feeling not only sad, but also a bit angry.

'Harry?' Evie asked worriedly. 'Mal would never do that... he must've forced her into it or something.'

Ben scoffed. 'No no, she was gladly letting him,' Ben said. 'No sign of resistance.'

'There has to be a logical explanation for that,' Jay said.

Ben abruptly stood still and turned around. 'Yeah, which is that she's just moved on because we broke up. And now she's found someone else. No one's gonna stop her from doing whatever and whoever she wants, neither am I.'

'Jesus, man, do you actually think of her as someone who'd do that?' Carlos asked him, not liking the way he thought of his sister.

'Well, why wouldn't she?' he asked. 'She's not cheating or anything, y'know. She can't help herself.'

Jay rolled his eyes and started walking again. The drive home was as quiet as ever. No one said a word, not even when they parted ways in the corridors to go to their dorms.

'So, what's the deal with Mal?' Uma asked Harry. 'Since that whole royal wedding announcement she stopped resisting you, didn't she.'

Uma was kinda right. After that announcement Mal realized that Ben and her were just nothing anymore. So there was nothing keeping her from being with someone else.

It might've also been some kind of "revenge", but she knew that being with Harry would be fun.

Their relationship wasn't all that serious, it was more just fun and not caring.

'She just finally stopped pretending like she doesn't want me,' Harry told her.

Uma looked at Mal who was talking to some pirate by the bar.

'She's also really beginning to turn into a pirate,' she said.

'To think she once was a princess,' Harry said grinning.

Uma laughed. 'She sure is the best actress ever,' she said. 'People actually bought that.'

'Auradon people are so naive,' Harry said chuckling. 'A villain who turns good, like that's possible.'

'Why'd you want to be good and kind when you can be bad and do anything you want?' Uma asked.

Harry shrugged his shoulders. 'Some people are just that stupid.'

Uma chuckled and then looked at Mal.

'Hey, I don't know, but you might wanna break that apart,' Uma said as she pointed her head toward Mal and some guy who was getting a bit- well- too close to Mal.

Mal seemed to be quite uncomfortable, as the guy had her kinda blocked between him and the bar so she couldn't really get away.

'Now he's gonna get it,' Harry said angrily and walked up to them.
