Ben and I met up an hour later for our picnic. It was really romantic and beautiful. "Would you like a hot orderve?" I asked, holding on up.
"Yes, please." Ben tells me and I smile while feeding him it. "Mmm. This is the best thing I've ever had."
"So you like it?" I ask him a little nervously and hopefully.
"I more than like it..." Ben tells me as he stands up and comes around to stand right next to me and leans down in front of me making me look up at him while he grabs another one. "I love it."
I laugh a little, "Yeah?"
"This is amazing." He tells me eating some more.
"So, did I surprise you?" I ask him.
"Oh, yeah. You surprised me. This is every single dish Mrs. Potts made for my parents. What did it take you, three days?" Ben asks me.
I blew a raspberry, "You know, don't even ask me." I chuckle nervously.
"Well it means alot that you stopped and did all of this for me." Ben tells me sincerely. "Especially with all of the crainess you've been put through." He says, taking my hand. I look down at ut hands before looking back at him. "I've missed you." We smile at each other and Ben reached over and stroked my left cheek with his thumb. "We don't get alot of time to just be ourselves anymore."
"I know." I reply, flicking a piece of food off of the side of his face laughing quietly.
"You can't take me anywhere, right?" Ben jokes. "Do you have a napkin or something?"
"I do. I think I put them in there somewhere." I say reaching over for the picnic basket.
"No' I got it." Ben says reaching into the basket.
"No wait!" I try but Ben just pulls out my spell book.
"What's this?" He asks me as I chuckle nervously.
"Uh actually, I threw that in there at the last minute. Just in case it rained or something." I lie hoping that he believes me but he crushes my hopes as he starts flipping through the pages.
"Speed-reading spell, blonde hair spell," Ben starts reading off some spells before looking up at me and the table in disbelief. "Cooking spell." He slams the book closed making me jump a little. "And I was giving you props for fitting in so well for doing your best." Ben looks at me in disappointment and me freaking out and not thinking started to do something I shouldn't have.
"Take back this moment that has passed, return it...Reverse it." I trail of thinking.
"Are you trying to spell me right now!" Ben screams at me standing up.
"Ben it's been so hard!" I scream back.
"Everything is hard! Do you think learning how to be king is easy for me?!?"
"No, I just-"
Ben interrupted me, "I thought we were doing this together!"
I stood up well, trying to fix this. "Ben we are in this together!" I try and convince him.
"But we aren't, Scarlett! You've been lying and keeping secrets from me! I thought we were done with this. This isn't the Isle of the Lost, Scar."

I was taken back by that response and to be honest a little disappointed about the truth behind that statement, "Believe me, Ben. I know that."
"Then why are you doing this?" Ben asked me more calm now.
"Because, I'm not one of those pretty pink princesses, Ben! I'm not one of those Ladies from the Court. I'm a big fake, okay!? I'm fake, this is fake." I say gesturing to my outfit. "This is fake." I say gesturing to my hair. I then grab my the spell book. "Take this feast, this scrumptious meal and return back to what is real." Ithenwave m hand and the food changes into a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with milk. "This is who I'm really am." I tell him before turning into a lioness and running off with Ben screaming that peanut butter and jelly was his favorite behind me.
