Serena pov:
Mal kept staring at me during the ride to Auradon and I felt so uncomfortable.
"Here, try." Carlos told Squirmy as he handed him some sort of candy.
Squirmy hesitated but Carlos nodded.
"Trust me."
Squirmy's eyes widened as he tasted it and Carlos chuckled.
"Told you."
"Yea about the candy. Here Diz, try that." Evie said and Dizzy got a huge suger rush.
I tried to ignore the others and was busy focusing on my own problems...
"Are you okay?" Mal asked me and suddenly everyone stared at me (except Jay, he was driving).
"Y- yea..." I mumbled nervously.
"Must be weird to get away from your sisters..." Squeaky said and I got to admit; I didn't know he could talk.
"It's not that- N- nothing is going on." I said and Mal looked at me.
She apologised without making a noise and I just wished to get the heck out of that car.
I was nervous and uncomfortable and hell!

We arrived at Auradon and I pulled Mal aside.
"Please don't tell anyone yet. I- I'm not ready to tell people and-" I said and I started to freak out.
"Relax... Take a deep breath..." Mal said and I did.
"I won't say a thing." Mal promised.
I looked at her and let out a sigh or relief.
"Thank you..." I said softly.
"Come on, you're lucky you don't have to shared your dorm; just like Dizzy." she said and we quickly went after the others.

Ofcourse my dorm was all guy-type and I sighed when the others left me alone.
It felt like it was some sort of gender-prison...
I sighed and zipped my bag open.
Harriette stuffed some of her old clothes in it and I quickly stuffed them in one of the drawers of the closet.
Including a small box filled with some make-up.
"Dammit sis." I cursed under my breath.
I love that she did it but it would only make it harder for me to hide it at first.
"Hey Hook, are you done unpacking? The others and I are going to show you and the other three around soon." Jay's voice said and I sighed as I just shoved my bag under the bed.
"I'm coming..." I mumbled as I walked to the door.

"So you four have seen the dorms and most of the school. But there's a lot of other things which is amazing about Auradon!" Evie squealed and Mal walked next to me.
"If you're going to ask again if I'm okay, shut up." I sissed and Mal sighed.
"I was going to ask if you needed help." she whispered.
I ignored her, pretending that I didn't hear her.
We were introduced to a few places; the enchanted lake, the rest of the campus (sport fields included) and a small 'marketplace' but instead of tents there were actual shops.

"When can we return to the dorms?" I asked after a while.
"Oh, we were actually going to show-" Carlos said but Mal cut him off.
"I'll show Harry later." she said and she walked with me back to the dorms.

We sat in my dorm in silence for a bit and she looked at me.
"How long have you known?"
"Ever since I was twelve..."
"Do Uma and Gil know?"
"Hell no!"
"Okay... So I know, your sisters know... Who else?"
"Dizzy and me; makes five."
"Dizzy knows?"
"I caused a bit of a scene when my dad forced me once to get a haircut... long story..." I mumbled.
"Your dad doesn't know...?"
"He'd kill me if he'd know."
"Okay... So, do you want to tell the others?"
I looked at Mal.
"I probably should huh?"
"It would make things easier for you." she said and I knew she was right.
"Besides, Evie could give you some-"
I opened the drawer which I could reach from the bed; revealing the old clothes of Harriette.
"I was going to say advice about both fahsion and make-up, but that you got clothes from your sister could be usefull."
"She also stuffed a box of make-up in my bag."
"How long has Harriette known?"
"From the beginning."
"And Cj?"
"24 hours."
"That's... a small difference." Mal mumbled.
She looked at me.
"But hey, both Evie and I could help you with the make-up part."
I chuckled briefly.
"Thanks... So far Harriette used to drag me to her room whenever we were home alone without Cj or our father; putting eyeliner on my face and trying different kinds of lipstick now and then."
"Awww that's cute!"
"Oh shut up..." I mumbled.
Why did I even tell her that?!
"You don't have to tell the others yet if you don't want to y'know... Just, take your time."
"Would you help me?"
"Of course! And Dizzy could and would too, since she knows too." Mal said and I felt a bit more comfortable now.
"Serena." I said out of the blue.
"What?" Mal asked confused.
"That's my girl name, Serena."
"Oh. That's what you meant. It suits you." she said and she stood up.
"Text me if you need anything. Okay?"
I looked at her.
"Could you and Dizzy help me with preparing to tell the others... ASAP?" I asked and Mal smiled a little.
"I'll return when I find Dizzy." Mal said and she left.
