Descendants 4

Chapter 1

Mal sat in the castle library trying to write her wedding vows. She was struggling with trying to get them right, she wanted to make sure she said the right things to Ben. He meant the entire world to her and if she said something wrong she would not only disappoint the entire kingdom and embarrass herself in front of all of them but she would disappoint the man who she was saying them to. But just as she had paused for a moment to think a little more she felt the arms of her fiancé wrap around her from behind as a small smile made its way onto her face.

"What are you working on there?" Ben asked her as he caught sight of the notebook in her lap.

Mal glanced down at her lap where he was pointing towards the notebook as she then closed it so he wouldn't be able to see what she had written so far. "Oh that, that's um that's just.."

"Just what?"

Before Mal could think of a response Belle entered the room to find the couple. "There you two are, there are still just a few details left for you to decide on."

Mal let out a small sigh of relief after Belle was able to get Ben distracted with the wedding. She just didn't want him to think that she couldn't even think of anything to promise him or tell him she loved him. She did, she loved him more than anything, but she didn't want to say the wrong things.

Jay was at the tourney field getting in some extra practice with himself. It was a nice way for him to be able to get away and distract himself when he needed a break from certain things, and also just to be able to think too. But his focus was interrupted when he caught sight of Audrey making her way onto the field to see him.

He set down the tourney stick before going over to see what had brought Audrey to see him. But before she got the chance to say anything she was stopped as Jay planted a kiss on her lips. Audrey smiled as she kissed him back before pulling away from him. "How much longer before we can actually tell your family about us?" Jay asked her as he didn't want to have to keep hiding their relationship from them. He wanted to be able to feel completely free to express his love for her.

"I don't know, I'm just still worried about how they'll react." She told him.

"And by them, you mean your grandmother?"

Audrey's head slowly nodded in response as she always worrying about her grandmother reacting in the wrong way about everything. She was still upset over the barrier being brought down. She was afraid to imagine how she would react to finding out she was dating one of the vk's and the last thing she wanted was to be forbidden to see him.

Jay sighed and glanced down disappointingly. Audrey saw and she felt bad when she saw his look of disappointment. "I promise that I'll tell her when the time is right." She told him as she planted a kiss on his cheek.

Jay smiled as he nodded again before walking off the tourney field with her.

Evie was sitting in her workroom trying to work on some more designs but lately it just discouraged her. She had just recently launched an online website for Evie's 4 Hearts but it just hadn't taken off like she had hoped and as of lately she wasn't getting that many orders anymore. She had Mal's wedding dress to work on to at least keep her busy and distracted, but she wasn't sure what she was going to do after Mal's dress was finished.

Things just hadn't been going according to her plan like she had thought. She thought her starter castle was just that, a starter castle before she got her real castle. But she didn't even know if that was going to happen anymore, she didn't know if her happily ever after was real anymore. She and Doug were no longer together after realizing they weren't truly compatible, even their true love's kiss was a fraud after Doug told her he had faked being asleep just so she would kiss him.
