We get to Auradon once all of the food has run out and Jay and Carlos fell out of the car. Everyone stared at us. I grumbled to myself. Aside from Mal and me, Ben chose a group of fools.

I climbed out on the other side and peered over the vehicle. Ben stood at the front of the welcoming crowd with a girl dressed even worse than Evie usually did. I leaned back into the limo to throw up before joining Mal at the front.

"Or the day that you showed four peoples where the bathrooms are," Mal said.

I looked up and nudged her. "Grammarly says your grammar's bad," I whispered.

"That's because I'm evil," she cackled.

Ben looked like he didn't know what to say, so he tried to handshake everyone. Jay punched him in the arm, Mal did this weird thing where she looked at him for like ten seconds, Carlos shook his hand normally and Ben licked the chocolate off, and Evie tried to give him a makeover. I dodged him. Carlos and Jay pushed their way through the crowd to find more food as Audrey stepped in.

"I'm Audrey," the girl said. "Sleeping Beauty's daughter."

"Really?" I asked. "I couldn't imagine your mom would be beautiful."

It took Ben a second to get it, but once he did, he stepped forward towards me. "Hey," he said. "Don't be rude to my friend."

Audrey glared at him. "I'm your girlfriend. We've been dating for ten years."

"Okay!" Ben said. "So, how about a tour? Yeah? Auradon prep, originally built over 300 years ago and converted into a high school by my father when he became king. Carlos, It's okay. My father wanted his statue to morph from beast to man to remind us that anything is possible."

"Sure!" Evie said. I rolled my eyes as we followed Ben into the garden. The school was a lot more happy and good than I pictured, and there was a significant lack of garbage. I could tell Mal was noticing the same thing.

"So... where are our dorms?" she asked. She did that thing where she put the whole chocolate with the wrapper still on into her mouth but still held onto the end of the wrapper and then pulled it so the chocolate stayed in her mouth but the wrapper came off. She must have saved one from the limo, and I was impressed at her ability to hide the scent from Jay and Carlos.

"Go find Doug," Audrey said. Then she and Ben left.
