*15 minutes later the car pulls up outside the school, Ben gets out, heads over to her side, opens her door and helps her out*
Mal: thank you
Ben: a pleasure my fair maiden
Mal: do I look like Audrey to you?
*he chuckles a little*
Ben: well....
*she shoves him, mostly playfully although a little aggressively*
Ben: I thought I already clarified you're much more beautiful
Mal: come on
*she walks infront trying to hude the fact that she was blushing, which was how he knew she was blushing and made him smirk a little, it was wiped off his face by a bit of a stern look from the receptionist, it was hard for him still to go from a comfortable and normal conversation like that with his girlfriend where he was just Ben to being all right and proper, the King of Auradon, his father always made it seem so easy, maybe it was because he didn't change much as he went from one to the other, it was belle changing him more than him doing it himself, Mal didn't quite have the same affect on him, maybe because he didn't have the same temperament as his father, although as he came to think of it, he and Mal were his parents reversed, he calmed he temper as his mother calmed his father's, he snapped out of his own little world as Mal began to speak*
Mal: hi, the headmistresses are expecting us
*the receptionist makes some sort of call and in come flora, fauna and merryweather  'the three good faries' Mal could literally hear her mother's voice in her ears saying it to her*
Fauna: your highness, thank you for coming
Ben: it's my pleasure
*he was still stuck a little in his own head, another thing he found it a little hard to evade, himself*
Flora: everyone's very excited for your visit
Mal: we are especially so
*she tries to sound as proper as she can although it's clear that she barely understood what she was saying, Ben took her hand discreetly and gave it a little squeeze which they both tried to not acknowledge*
Merryweather: yes, my lady, we weren't sure if you'd be joining us
Ben: I don't do any official events without her, well as a matter of fact I haven't done much in general without her since my surgery
*they look at him slightly like he's joking*
Mal: he's serious
Flora: well, the kids and their teachers are preparing an assembly for you for later but until then we were hoping you'd sit in on a few classes with the kids, they'd love it ever so much
Ben: of course, id be happy to
Fauna: follow us then
*they walk on, Mal till holding onto Ben's hand rather tightly which makes him smile at the thought she was under the impression he was protecting her, also at the fact that she appeared to be under the impression she needed protection from a bunch of cute little kids, he guessed they might not be so cute where she grew up*
Mal: you want your crown?
Ben: nah, I don't need it here
Mal: okay, perhaps we can find you a little kids p.e. class, get you some exercise
*she grins at him cheekily*
Ben: haha
*he replies sarcastically, she turns around and kisses him, he looks at her a little confused by the sudden PDA*
Mal: what? I figure better I do it now than infront of the little kids
Ben: yeah I guess, now come on let's go
*they jog a little to catch up to the fairies*
Mal: umm, I'm really sorry about what my mother did, I hope you don't hold it against me
*they look at her for a second as they continue walking*
Mal: you are the three fairies that raised aurora aren't you?
Merryweather: yes we are dear, but you aren't your mother and you've proved you have a good heart
Mal: thank you
