Mal's POV
When we finally arrived to Arendalle half of the kingdom was there to congratulate Jay and Evie. Since every wedding in Auradon is televised everywhere they already knew that Doug bailed on the wedding. I never knew why weddings were such a big deal in Auradon but of course this was coming from someone who was raised where you were lucky to gain eye contact with someone without them running in terror. Aside from the crowd of monstrosity this place was amazing! Strings of floral garland hung on every other electric pole, kids danced through the streets, designs painted on every sidewalk as far as the eye could see, and most importantly it wasn't -32 degrees anymore. I was practically gawking at the beautiful scenery. After about 2 minutes a handsome young man with a stocky build walked up and took our bags but he paused to look at me. "Hi I don't believe we've met. I'm Chris. And you are?" He asked shaking my hand.
"Mal. Nice to meet you." I said as politely as I could even though this whole run-in was making me uncomfortable.
"Mal, what a beautiful name for a beautiful girl." Okay now this was getting straight up creepy.
"So tell me Mal have you ever been to Anna and Kristoff's indoor garden? I could give you a tour maybe. Anna and Kristoff are my mom and dad. Also interesting fact it's an amazing date spot." I leaned into Ben for comfort to which he delivered by wrapping his arms around me. With new found confidence I said, "Actually I have plans with my fiancé."
Ben looked down at me and stared.
"What?" I asked nudging him.
"Nothing. You've just never called me your fiancé in public. Sounds nice." He smiled before giving the stink eye to Chris.
"Okay I'll see you around Mal. If you happen to come to my dorms later my dorm room is 309. Don't be shy." He returned the stink eye to Ben, set our bags back down and walked away.
"I officially don't like that guy. But I kinda feel bad for him." He said keeping me in his embrace.
"Oh yea why's that?" I asked turning in his arms.
"Cause he can't have you!" He chanted kissing my forehead.
"Yea that's unfortunate but lucky for you I'm all yours." I said pulling away from his grasp and walking over to talk to Evie. I have a feeling this trip is going to be very interesting

Later in Evie and Jay's hotel
Evie's POV
"Babe have you seen my flat iron?!" I called to Jay from the bathroom putting my earrings on.
"2nd drawer on the left. Why?" He called back walking to the doorway.
"I'm gonna go out with the girls and look around." I said pulling the iron out.
"But it's our honeymoon! I thought I could have you." He whined.
I put the iron down and walked towards him with a sly smile and said, "Who says you can't have me?"
He followed me to the bed and the whole time I was thinking: This'll have consequences. Am I ready? I'm so ready. I love this man so much. I need this.

That Morning
Evie's POV
I slowly opened my eyes to scan my surroundings. Everything seemed exactly the way it was the night before. Ah the night before. I thought. I turned over to look at Jay when a searing pain shot through my legs. I guess I'm still sore from last night. When I got completely situated I probably woke Jay up because he started to stir.
"Hey beautiful." He said groggily proping himself up on his elbow.
"Hey." I said pulling on my underwear and jeans. When my jeans came up to my knees I winced and whimpered loudly.
"What's wrong?! Did I hurt you that badly?!" He ran to my side and bent down carefully rolling my jean leg up letting his fingers graze over one of the bruises on my calf.
"No Jay. You probably accidentally kicked me when you had your boots on its no big deal." I said softly wiping a tear from his cheek.
"Are you feeling pain anywhere else?" He said a little bit more at ease.
"A little bit in my groin. But they say that's normal for your first time and a little in my shoulders and back but other than that I'm fine." I said stretching out my arms as I put my bra on.
"Okay well hurry up and get dressed we're meeting everyone in Elsa's palace for lunch." He urged already pulling on his jeans.
"Lunch? What time is it?" I grabbed my phone off the nightstand and looked at the time. It was 12:04.
"Yea let's go we don't wanna be late!" He yelled from the bathroom.
I quickly ran a brush through my hair and put a shirt on.
Jay rushed out of the bathroom, grabbed his keys, and ran out the door.
I followed him stopping along the way to make sure I had my purse.
Once we got to the car Jay opened my door and helped me inside. He walked over to his side and got in. He started the car and we were off. I hope no one suspected anything.

Mal's POV
"Ben turn off the camera!" I yelled running away from Ben. Sadly due to his superior speed and agility he caught me.
"Fine. You know someday when we have kids and they ask, 'Mommy, daddy how was your relationship when you were younger' You'll say, 'Well your dad tried to make a video for you guys but I told him to turn the camera off' So that's on you."
We sat down on the bed and picked up our phones to text Jay and Carlos that we'd be late for lunch.
Suddenly a toxic smell filled my nostrils making me sick to my stomach.
"What's that smell!?" I gagged holding my nose.
"I made eggs earlier for us. What's wrong?! You love eggs." He said walking toward me cautiously. I didn't get a chance to answer him cause the vomit was coming on strong. I ran to the bathroom and kneeled in front of the toilet puking my guts out. Ben silently crouched behind me and rubbed my back soothingly.
Once I was done I went over to my purse to grab my toothbrush when I seen my box of tampons and it brought me to a horrifying realization.
"Mal are you okay?" Ben asked sliding in next to me.
"Ben...I think I'm p-pr..pregnant." I said through gritted teeth.
I honestly didn't think Ben could pull off the whole "deer in the headlights" look but it was spot on.
"Really? Are you sure? When was the last time we...ya know?" He asked in shock.
"About a week ago. I remember it was the day after our engagement." I said digging through my purse for a pregnancy test.
"And how late are you?"
Gosh he's question central today.
"5 days." I found the test and pulled it out.
"What's that for?" He asked eyeing the box in my hands.
"I'm gonna use to play fetch with the dog! What do you think it's for?!" I shouted pushing him out the door. I slammed it in his face. Jeez I don't even know if I'm pregnant yet and my hormones are already going insane.
After I peed on the stick I set it on the counter. The few minutes I had to wait were agonizing. When it finally beeped I felt an unusual sigh of relief escape my lips. I picked up the test afraid to look but when I did I seen the most shocking and amazing symbol I've ever seen in my life. Positive. I am pregnant. First there was an overwhelming sense of shock and then a burst of joy. Now for the hard part. Telling Ben. I walked out of the bathroom slowly as if my legs were stuck in jelly. I hid the test behind my back. As soon as Ben looked me I bit my lip out of nervousness.
"So???" He asked stepping toward me.
I started to tear up a little bit.
I took the test out from behind my back and flipped it over so he couldn't see it.
Then I smiled.
"Ben we're having a baby!" I showed him the positive sign.
At first I seen fear and horror in his eyes then a smile almost as big as mine appeared on his face.
"Oh my god. I'm gonna be a father!" He yelled hugging and spinning me around.
Right in that moment nothing else mattered except the fact that I was having a baby with the man I love and in 9 months we'd finally have our happy family. Just then both of our phones went off and it was Jay telling us lunch was cancelled cause Elsa had the flu. Good thing because we had a lot to think about.
