It was a perfectly normal day at Auradon Prep, it had been a month since the Cotillion and all had been well amongst the VKs. Dizzy had come over and was at Auradon Jr. Prep, and was loving it. Ben and Mal were stronger than ever, while there were times Ben wasn't around for a short time he was always there when Mal needed him.

Though today was one of those few times where Ben wasn't available. He had meetings and paperwork that would take him until tomorrow, and that was if he was lucky. He hadn't seen Mal for more than a few minutes in 2 days, but once these few days were over he would be able to spend a whole day with her, and then a little more. While 4 to 5 days seemed like a lifetime, Mal knew she would get through it knowing that she would be able to spend hours with him after.

That thought is what carried her on through the days 'just 1 or 2 more days until it is just Ben and I' and it would have worked, if not for a certain still slightly spiteful, jealous frenemy.

Mal was sitting beneath a large oak tree in the courtyard after her classes drawing a picture of Ben and herself sitting on the ruins by the enchanted lake together on her sketchpad with a content look on her face. When her peace and serenity was ruined.

"Hey "Lady Mal of Auradon" " Audrey said in a chipper mocking tone doing the quoting gesture

"Hi Audrey" Mal replied in a dry tone

"You know that really won't last, just because you got that fancy little title, doesn't mean it can't be taken away. Or just, ignored." Audrey said with a smug look on her face

"Just hush Audrey" Mal said rolling her eyes at the jealous girl, continuing her sketch

"Oh I am sorry, but Princess out-ranks Lady. So I don't take orders from you. PLus when is the last time you saw your precious little King? What? Three? Four? Days ago?"

"Audrey, I really don't care what you have to say so just leave me alone"

"Aww, what are you going to do? Go running to your little Benny Boo? Telling him somebody didn't listen to you? Send them to the Isle?" Audrey said trying to find a button to press that would set her off "Oh but he would only do it because he is still love spelled, please we all know that that kiss back on the boat that everyone is just raving about, wasn't "True Love's Kiss" Psh, you and Uma were just plotting together, I mean all you needed was to have some of the anti-dote on your lips and BOOM, everyone thinks it's "True Love's Kiss" please I am his true love"

"First of all, Ben is not under any sort of Love spell. Second of all, I don't go running back to Ben everytime someone does something I don't like and expect him to fix it, like you did. Third of all, I don't care what you think."

"Well to bad for you, you're just like your mother. You have one little plan that you don't think past, and then never see your ultimate demise coming. Even turning into a dragon when things don't go to plan." Audrey said with a smug look on her face, one Mal wished she could slap right off her face, when she was joined by Chad

"Awww, look who it is?! Girl who ran off to the Isle when the "Pressure" of being perfect was to much? Psh, you can't handle a few reporters, how are you going to handle being Queen? Not that you will ever make it that far anyway. Because you are just the King's little Charity case. He could never Love a villain kid, much less a Villain. Especially a purple headed rebellious little misfit who doesn't fit in anywhere."
