Locking the door behind me, Carlos slips his hand into mine and I don't miss Jay blinking back his tears as he hooks arms with Mal and Evie.

"Smile pretty now, I want you all to fake it till you make it." I finally speak up as we walk down the hall to the front of the school.

They all glance at me and give me a thankful smile, our sense of humor all messed up the same way. Joking about it helps.

As we make our way down, I begin to realize how formal and proper every Auradon kid looks, I glance down at my dress and feel slightly uncomfortable knowing I have a slit down my chest, my inner boobs on full display.

As if sensing my discomfort, Evie comes to my side.

"I designed it this way on purpose, you're a goddess, beautiful, and you look extremely hot, I'm so proud of myself!" She whispers with excitement. I take in her words as I smile, I'm a goddess, I may have let my guard down for Ben, and these four friends of mine, but it's time I start acting like me again.

"You're right, thank you." I whisper, as Jay pulls the front door open and we all walk out. Carlos helping me since this dress had me tripping over myself.

Once I got over being blinded by the amounts of camera flashes and the bright sun, I saw many paparazzis and interviewers standing on the sides. The guards giving them a limit.

I kept my face with a small smile, my eyes searching for a certain brown eyed boy.

"Oh..." Evie said her eyes looking at something.

"My..." Jay followed, looking somewhat surprised but sent me a smirk. Before I could look at what they were looking at Carlos finished.

"Gods..." His eyes went wide and I finally turned to what they were looking at and saw Ben walking towards us, in a blue fitted suit and a single red rose in his hand. I looked behind him and saw a carriage decorated in red roses, and I mean every part, it seemed so fake but it left my heart churning. What the hell?

I saw his eyes go wide as he looked at me, his mouth parted slightly and he stopped in front of me, at loss for words, that makes two of us.

"You look so gorgeous." He whispered, still standing in front of me.

"You look handsome little prince." I grinned up at him, as if that broke him out of his little day dream, he finally let his signature smile take over and he gently took my hand, placing the rose in it.

"The first of many more..." he bow down to me, before taking my hand in his and I swear I fell for him about a million times more in those few seconds.

I smiled at my four friends and found them looking at me sadly, but with big, seemingly forced, smiled on their faces. Waving a quick bye to them, I let Ben lead us to the carriage, feeling all eyes on us.

As he helped me on I heard the interviewers going crazy on the sides, and for the first time in forever, I felt a bit nervous but loved the attention. For the first time it wasn't because of something bad, it was because I was beside Ben, their future king.

"It's very hard not to take you on here right now." Ben speaks up, slipping his arm around my waist as he smiles at the crowd, but I don't miss the glance he throws at me chest.
