Ben didn't even know what he did exactly. He just obeyed his instincts. It wasn't long, but it was intense. A kiss he wouldn't forget so easily and certainly not so quickly.

When both their lips released from each other, they looked at each other in fear and not knowing what to say. He afraid of what she might do, while Mal didn't understand what had just happened. Yes, it was a kiss, but why? Why did the prince do this and why did everything seem like a fog in her head? Too much information and after this fateful kiss, the more confused she was.

"I'm going in."

Little Maleficent said turning away from him, who still didn't know what to say and was surprised she said just that, no swearing or death threats.

"Me too, I mean I'm going too, I'm going to sleep too, I'm going to the car."

Embarrassed and confused Benjamin went to his car.

It was not an easy night, for either of them. How to understand that the voice and the eyes of a dream could be real? They could not deny it, they were the same. The same voice and the similar look. And now this kiss.

Mal, the explosive girl who once got into a fight just because of a can of spray had no reaction to what had happened. And Ben, the loyal boy has just betrayed his girlfriend and even though his conscience is searing in his head, he liked the kiss.

The Beast's Castle

Adam was at home. This rarely happened, yet there the king of Auradon was. Sitting in his study he was pretending to read a book, while his head wandered in a sea of worries.

"Mrs. Potts has made your tea."

Belle's gentle voice caught his attention

"How did you know I was here?"

He asked clearly happy to see her.

"Well, let's just say that having the king in the house is almost an event." She poured her drink and rested next to him. "So, you and I know you're not reading this book, what's going on?"

"Ben. I'm worried about our son, Belle." He confessed and when he heard this the worried mother sat next to her husband to listen. "He's not the same. I can't explain it, he's inattentive in meetings."

"But you said the ministers have started to crack."

"Yes, but I don't know Belle. I can't explain it, but that's not our Ben."

In the morning Evie woke up and found Mal already awake, she might not know so deeply the daughter of Maleficent, however she knew that she was not a morning person.

"Already awake?"

For Evie it was like waking up in a sweet dream. Surrounded by birds, blue sky and a wonderful bed, while for Mal dreams should be forgotten and isolated instances of her life.

"Huh? Yeah, it's kind of hard to sleep around here."

"Really, even with this wonderful bed? You're weird Mal. I saw you come in late yesterday, why did you stay outside?

"No big deal, is your doctor here yet?"

She got up quickly, but didn't know if it would be good or bad to go outside.

"Good morning, I was just about to knock." The medical student said with her hand almost already on the door, however Mal had already opened it. "Ben said I could come in, he let me know he went to see if he could get something for you guys to have coffee." Doug's cousin was talking as fast as she could, for just the look of the girl standing in the doorway scared her, "May I come in?"
