Mal X Ben: Love

Chapter 4:

Still Mal's POV:

"Where are you going?" Asked Ben. "It's late. You should be in your dorm."

"Why are you not in the castle?" I asked.

"I asked a question, Mal."

"So did I."

"Fine. Because I have king stuff." Said Ben, anger filling his voice. "Now answer my question."

"Fine. I was going to see Jay and Carlos." I lied.

"You just passed up their room." Said Ben, pointing behind me. "Stop the lying, Mal."

"I was...going to get fresh air." I lied again.

"When you want to tell me the truth, let me know." He said, walking past me. I sighed and walked to the museum.

I didn't have my spell book, so I had to get past the guard that's always in his chair.

I took a step near the door and the alarm sounded. I took off and ran back without getting caught.

I opened the door to the dorm and saw Evie sitting up on her bed.

"Uh hey, E!" I said, as if I didn't just walk in.

"Hey, M. Where were you so late at night?"

"I went to get fresh air."

"Oh ok."

"Yeah."

"You're seriously gonna lie to your sister?"

"No I--"

"I would never lie to you, M!"

"Ok fine! I went to...get my spell book back!"

"Mal, we're doing what's best for you! No magic!"

"Ok ok fine."

"Goodnight."

That's ok. I don't need magic to take Wynter down. I got this. 'Cause I'm rotten to the core.

The next morning, I woke up to no one else in the room. I got dressed and walked to school.

I got to my locker and I looked at every girl that passed by. So far none of them looked like Ben's description. Until one girl passed by with that exact same look. I stopped her dead in her tracks.

"Hey. Is your name, by any chance, Wynter?" I asked.

"Yeah."

"Is your mother's name Snow White?"

"Yeah. But who are you and why do you need to know that?"

"I'm Ben's girlfriend. I hear you've been texting him." I tightly grabbed her shirt and pushed her against a locker.

"Stop texting him. He's mine! Go find yourself a pathetic little prince!" I told her.

"Why are your eyes glowing?! Are you gonna hurt me?!" She asked, fear in her eyes.

"I don't know. Depends. Consider this a warning. Next time I won't be so nice." I said, letting go of her. She ran away. Then I heard a voice behind me.

"Mal?! What are you doing?!"

I turned around and saw Evie, Jay, Carlos, and Ben.

Sorry it's short! I'm working on 5 stories right now! I'm trying to improve for my readers. I love you all and I'm gonna try to update tomorrow!
