Home Safe

While you had always known that Audrey was a bit of a bitch you'd never expected her to actually turn evil, let alone for her to be able to command Maleficent's scepter and take over the school. You'd been with Mal, Evie, and Uma when Audrey had trapped you inside, and you had known that you were in a dangerous situation, but you couldn't help but worry more about what was happening to Ben; after all, you hadn't seen your boyfriend since this whole mess had started.

You supposed that was why you felt such a rush of relief when the girls broke the spell on the cottage and Celia looked out the window, turning to face you with a grin, "Hey," she'd said, "It's your bae!"

You'd rushed out of the cabin without a second thought, hurrying to embrace him. "Oh god, I was so worried about you," you murmured, wrapping your arms around him and holding him close. "I wasn't sure what she would do to you and I-" you trailed off, arms tightening around Ben's waist reflexively.

"I'm okay," he replied softly, hugging you back and tucking his face against your shoulder. "She- um, she turned me into a beast. Like my dad. I'm only okay because Jane and Carlos had water from the Enchanted Lake." He took a shaky breath, and the movement made you notice the odd texture of his jaw against your skin- like he hadn't shaved in a few days.

You pulled back to look at him, eyes widening as you took in his altered appearance. You took his face in your hands, remaining quiet for a long moment as you studied him. "It's kind of a good look for you," you said eventually, trying to coax a smile out of the forlorn brunet.

It worked, and the sight of his amused grin was enough to help ease the tension in your chest.

"What about those?" Uma asked from behind you, gesturing to the newly revealed fangs protruding from your boyfriend's lips.

You paused, a little stunned at the new additions, "Well, those are new."

Ben's grin widened and he bared his fangs at you playfully, "I kinda like them. I'm sure we could put 'em to good use."

"Good luck explaining your new fangs to the dentist," you teased with a roll of your eyes, but you leaned in to press a light kiss to his cheek.

Ben just laughed, tucking himself comfortably against your side and grinning up at you. He knew that your teasing was just your way of showing that you loved him, and that you were relieved that he was safe. He really couldn't fault you for that though; with you he was finally home, safe and sound
