From the way she looked
To the way she smiled
She captured him unlike no other
From the first hello, that's all it took
Then suddenly they had each other

A/N i just seriously love music and i seriously love over and over again...now onto the story...

Mal POV
I sit down in the library of the castle, while Ben is in a meeting. We are supposed to go on a picnic at the enchanted lake. I'm waiting for Ben to finish up and we can go. Suddenly I smell smoke. Lots of it. I run to the door to find a blazing trail of fire in the hallway, and its getting bigger by the second.

Ben POV
"Meeting Dismissed." I say as the council leaves the room. I text Mal since we're going on a date in a few minutes.

Ben: Hey mal the meeting just finished and im on my way to pick you up. R u in ur dorm?

Mal: im actually in the library

Ben: k ill come and get you

That's when the fire alarm went off. Doug, who works as my adviser and assistant, runs to me and says "There is a fire in the hallway by the library and its moving towards the stairs!" My eyes grow big and my heart drops. Mal. Mal is in there. "MAL IS IN THE LIBRARY!" The stair railing came crashing down onto the floor below, almost hitting the chaotic group of employees as they're scurrying out of the building.

Doug, obviously not hearing what i just screamed, grabs my arm and leads me out of the building. Outside there is a group of people waiting to see if i made it out safely. I cant think. Can't speak. My parents run to me and hug me. I quickly pull out of the hug and ask them frantically if Mal made it out of the library.

My mother's eyes nearly pop out of her head, which were watery from all of the crying she had done, while watching her beloved castle burn. "MAL IS IN THERE?!?!?" she yells at me. My mother loves Mal so much, sometimes i think she loves her more than she loves me, and i don't mind one bit. Focus Ben. I look around as the Auradon Fire Department comes to the rescue. No sign of Mal. I pull out my phone and call her. The tears in my eyes are threatening to spill.

*Ring* *Ring*

Mal: *Cough Cough* "B-Ben"

*Bookshelves crash onto the floor in the background along with the sound of crackling fire*

Ben(who was now full on crying after realizing Mal was still in the blazing building): "M-mal are y-you still in the library?!?!"

Mal: "Y-yeah *cough* the fire blocked the *cough* d-door I-I cant get out *cough* i d-dont think i c-can be in here much lo-

*The line disconnects*

I run towards the building, but my father holds me back. My mother runs to the firemen,and explain how their future queen is in the building and how we expected her out of that building and alive. The firemen move as fast as they can to get into the building.

Mal POV

I can barely breathe. the only thing I can do is wait. I don't know what i'm waiting for whether its for someone to save me, or for my death. i didn't expect to die this way. I didn't even see Ben today, didn't hug him. didn't tell him i love him,one last time. I'm lying on the one part of the floor that isn't covered in fire. my face and clothes are covered in ash and my eyes are slowly closing. my eyes get heavier and heavier. The last thing i see are three firefighters entering the room, two are putting out the fire and one is coming towards me. I guess Ben jut wouldn't let me die like this. "I love you Ben," was my last thought before darkness overcame my mind.

Ben POV

After about 4 minutes of waiting frantically outside, trying to hold back my tears and negative thoughts, with nothing but chaos behind me. I finally see my purple haired angel, conscious and alive, being carried out the castle." Relieved. I run to them as they are putting a now unconscious Mal into the back of the ambulance. They tell me to come in, knowing I'm her boyfriend. I look back at my mother for reassurance that she'll be ok. "go Ben, we'll meet you at the hospital." I nod and head to Mal. when i reach her i grab her hand and kiss her. Being grateful she's alright. Even when she's unconscious and covered in ashes, she's still so beautiful.

A/N i feel like this one could've ended a little stronger but hey I tried

Did i mention I love Nick Jonas's new album. Like OMG Unhinged is AMAZING. So is Comfortable, Champagne problems, Close, and Chainsaw....

yeah i'm slightly obsessed.
