"Are you all ready for this?" Mal asked the group. Everyone nodded. Fairy Godmother heard the knock on her office door, but when she went to open it, she wasn't expecting the group of six to be standing on the other side. She invited them in with a simple hand gesture and in filed Mal, Evie, Uma, Ben, Doug and Harry. "Fairy Godmother, we have something we need to tell you," Mal started. "I'm pregnant."

"Bibbidi-bobbidi... Oh, my," Fairy Godmother gasped.

"So am I," Evie added.

"Me, too," Uma said.

Fairy Godmother gaped before continuing to speak, "Is there anything else?"

"Mal and I are engaged," Ben blurted.

"You are?!" everyone exclaimed at them.

They nodded happily. "We're announcing it to all of Auradon today," Mal told them. "I wanted to tell our friends and family before we do tell all of Auradon, though. So, let's go tell everyone else. Fairy Godmother, Ben and I only have thirty minutes to get back to the palace to make the announcement, and by that I mean we only have fifteen minutes, so can we come back and discuss this further tomorrow?"

"You go ahead," Fairy Godmother replied, giving her warm smile.

The group exited the office and headed off to tell their friends all of the exciting news. The VK's and AK's had gotten closer since Uma had found out that she was pregnant. Due to her abandoning her VK life, she had ordered her crew to do so as well. They started to mingle with the students of Auradon Prep, and, to their surprise, found the AK's not... Terrible. Uma and Melody decided to put their family history behind them, and became incredibly close. The group of six (or nine, if you want to count the babies) came up to their hangout, where, sure enough, the rest of their posse were chilling, talking quietly to one another.

"Guys, we have an announcement," Ben said, then looked at his friends.

"We're pregnant," the six said in unison.

CJ, Jane, Lonnie, Dizzy and Melody squealed. Jay and Carlos gaped. Then Harriet, Gil, Audrey and Chad burst out laughing. Everyone looked at them all questioningly.

The four looked at each other, before saying in unison, "So are we!"

Everyone was laughing now. Except for Harry.

"Harriet, who?!" he demanded.

"Gil, duh," Harriet replied, still laughing. Harry gave Gil the scariest look that Uma had ever seen on his face.

She stood in front of him. "Harry, calm down," she pleaded. "You got me pregnant, plus, Harriet is old enough to take care of herself. She's nineteen."

Harry closed his eyes, took a breath and his muscles relaxed. His clenched fists became un-clenched, and he opened his ice blue eyes to see Uma's calming brown orbs.

"You're right," he told her, turning to face his sister and her boyfriend. "Congratulations, you two."

"And, we're engaged," Ben said, holding Mal by the waist.

The congratulations was shared between the group before Ben and Mal had to rush back to the palace. Ben, Mal, Belle and Adam stood on the balcony as all of Auradon were watching. Whether it was from below in the courtyard or on the TV, the whole land was tuned in to listen to what the royal family had to announce.

"It is with greatest pride, and deepest pleasure, that we announce that..." Ben paused, and just about every Auradon citizen leaned forward in their seats. "Lady Mal and I are engaged!"

The whole of Auradon cheered, save for the few girls who wept at their lost chance with the king. The family went back inside thirty minutes later after fielding questions, where Mal and Ben's friends were waiting for the lunch that they had been invited to. Somewhere in the middle of lunch, everyone was talking, so Gil tapped Ben on the shoulder.
