Be Alright

"If you are broken, you do not have to stay broken"

-Selena Gomez

Mal POV

It was a very depressing day in Auradon.

The kingdom had just lost a very important person, and everyone felt the pain.

Especially our family.

Adam died at 11:28 PM, three days after our daughter's 9th birthday.

He was hospitalized after suffering from a stroke, at about 6 pm, and he was put into a coma. Ben, Belle and I stayed by Adam's side, our daughter Bryanna asleep in my arms.

After about 3 hours of staying in the hospital room, Ben told me to take Bryanna home.

"But what if something happens when I'm gone? Ben, I'm scared, what if..."

"Mal, just go, take Bryanna home, I don't want her to see-" Ben's voice cracked and my heart shattered.

Just then Bryanna started to wake up. She has Ben's hair and my eyes and is the most beautiful little girl you could ever imagine.

"Hey baby girl, We're about to head home but uh why don't you go give grandpa a hug before we do," I tell her, having the gut feeling that this may be the last time she ever sees her grandfather.

She has tears in her eyes after I tell her to say bye. She's a very smart girl and Ben and I both know that she knows what's going on.

I put her down and she walks over to Adam's peaceful body lying on the bed, and what she says made Belle and I break down right there in that room.

"Grandpa, I don't know if you can hear me, but I want you to know how much I love you. I'll always remember our walks in the garden, and how you would always throw grapes at me and I would fail to catch them in my mouth. I remember when you always made me laugh when I was sad and how you always made me smile. I love you so so much."

Belle sobbed and so did I. Adam and I have gotten so close and all of that was going to be taken away. He was the dad I never had, the only father figure I ever had in my life. Ben finally gave in to our crying when Bryanna said this last sentence.

"I want you to know, that it's okay to let go. Everything will be alright. We love you and when you leave, we'll see you again, and just promise me this grandpa," All four of us in the room were all in hysterics, crying and praying, hoping that this wasn't the end, hoping that we would be able to hear his laughter one more time, to hear his voice and to see his eyes, just one last time.

Bryanna then continued, tears spilling out of her eyes and sobs coming out of her every now and then as she spoke. "promise me that you will watch over us, and Auradon, and help my daddy govern this kingdom from heaven, keep granny company every day until she's able to be with you, visit my mother in her dreams, and for me, just know that I love you with every piece of my heart."

She kissed him on the cheek and I walked over to her, wiping my tears, only to find more that fell, and did the same as Bryanna.

"I love You Dad" I whispered in his ear. I then grabbed Bryanna's hand and walked back over to Belle and Ben. We both gave them hugs and cried with them, the five of us all together in one room for the last time.

Ben POV

I continued to be strong for my wife and daughter, but when they left, I broke down in my mother's arms, and she broke down in mine.

I've never felt this pain. It's a physical pain in my chest. I don't know what to do or say. The only thing I can do is cry, cry and pray.

the worst pain of the night was when the sound I would never forget filled my ears.

The sound of that disgusting machine notifying that my father, the man I've looked up to my whole life, was gone.

My mother let out an ear piercing scream, which was followed by nurses and doctors ushering us out of the room. We screamed, shouted and cried, but it was no use.

He was gone.

Mal POV

I put Bryanna down for bed and sat down on the couch. I put my head in my hands and just cried, cried and cried. When I thought I ran out of tears, I proved myself wrong.

After about 10 minutes of this, I heard a door creak open, and little footsteps moving across the marble flooring. I felt a small pair of arms wrap around me and soft little kisses on my tear stained cheek.

The phone rang, and Bryanna looked at me with fear in her eyes, I'm pretty sure that fear in her eyes got stronger when she saw mine.

I answered the phone, my hands shaking as I held it up to my ear.

"H-hello"

Ben took a shaky breath and sobbed into the phone.

"He's gone Mal."

Ben and Belle came home 2 hours later, and the four of us sat together on the couch, holding each other, and we ended up waking up the next morning, forgetting what had happened last night, but when we remembered, the tears came back.

It didn't help Ben that he had to do a press conference, telling Auradon that their past king had passed away.

For the rest of that week, it was like there was a dark gray cloud just hovering over Auradon. Ben bottled in his emotions until they just exploded out of him one night, a few days after Adam's death. Belle was depressed and so was Bryanna. The two of them usually slept together, to keep each other company, while ben and I slept together in our room.

It was the day after the funeral when Ben finally let go of all of his emotions.

I was reading a book silently in bed, which was my way to cope with everything when all of the sudden I heard Ben sob.

"Oh, Ben..." I hugged him and held him.

"I know, baby, it hurts. But look at me."

I lifted his head up and looked into his sparkly, tear-filled, green/hazel eyes.

"I will be right here next to you every step of the way, everything's gonna be alright. We're going to be okay."

"I don't deserve you Mal, I love you so much."

I kissed him and said "I should be saying that to you Ben, you're so strong and loving. It's okay to not be okay"

We fell asleep, holding each other, and Adam kept his promise to Bryanna.

He visited me that night.
