A VK heartbeat

Chapter 12: Have you heard of the word 'Shut up'?

A/N
Hello!!

Just letting you know this will kinda be a chapter about how people are reacting to the change of soulmates.
I will put who they are down here if anyone was confused:

Mal x Harry
Uma x Ben
Chad x Evie
Audrey x Doug
Jane x Jay
Lonnie x Carlos
Harriet x Freddie
CJ x Anthony

Also Sofia being saying there's a lot of night filming they have to do in a forest like area....I wonder what they're doing?

~1 day later~

Evie's POV
I grumbled as Chad kept talking and talking about himself.
He hasn't stoped since FG forced us into a room together so we can get to know each other.
That was 3 hours ago.
"Ok, ok, Chad, have you ever heard of the word 'shut up'?" I snapped, making him stop talking "You know what? Have you even consider other people's feelings?"
He looked confused.
"And your mother is known for it..." I muttered as I walked to him "Chad, the world doesn't go around you and just because your a prince doesn't mean you can tell everyone what to do"
I touched his shoulder.
"Here, I can help you...people can see the real you, you have the bravery of a knight but now you need the kindness and consideration" I said.
He looked determined.
"I will do it!" He exclaimed "For the ladies!"
I glared at him.
"You do realise your technically doing this for me? Since I'm your...soulmate now?" I asked.
He immediately groaned.
"You sounded just like Audrey" he said.
"Okay, I won't do that anymore then" I said, making him surprised.
"Really?" Chad asked "Audrey never considered my feelings at all; the real reason she was with me was to get back at Ben for leaving her for Mal"
I looked into his eyes.
"Hey, I won't do anything like that...that's something I can promise" I said "Although, you can't buy me out like in chemistry"
We both laughed.
Maybe we will be okay?

Audrey's POV
I groaned, checking my nails in my locked room with the nerd with me.
Why am I stuck with the nerd?
"Audrey?" Doug asked, making me look at him.
"What?" I snapped, making him jump.
"I was kinda ask if you wanted to talk about things since we're stuck together now, but maybe not" Doug said with sass I have never heard from him before.
I have never heard him answer back to me.
"No" I said softly "I'm surprised"
Doug rose his eyebrow.
"No offence but I was really surprised when you answered back, I mean, you used to be scared of me" I said softly.
Doug sat next to me on my bed.
"I guess being Evie changed it a bit" he said "If you don't mind me asking...why have you been acting this way?"
"What way? What are you talking about?" I snapped.
"Just like that?" Doug asked "You have like a mask you hide under but you're a sweet girl underneath it"
I shrugged, which is unladylike.
"I guess...with having my mother as Aurora and my grandmother as Lela...I had a lot of pressure on me...and it didn't help with..."
"You can talk to me...I won't tell anyone" Doug said.
I sighed.
"...My grandmother. I know it would be hard to believe with my good looks now but I was a tomboy, you might even remember" I said, he looked at me confused "Wait, that was before I went to school form homeschooling well anyway, when Lela was always saying how I wasn't fit to be a princess nor my mother's daughter...it shattered me so I changed to be the princess she's always wanted me to be"

I looked away.
Why am I saying this?
"Even now, I still get comments from my grandmother and...I feel like I'm not good enough"
Doug held my hands, making me look into his eyes.
"Audrey" Doug said "I must admit I don't know you well but you don't have to go up to any expectations; just look at the VKs for example, they completely changed what their parents wanted from them and they went from harsh and lonely to happy and carefree people...I've heard your mother was exactly like that when she was younger...she lived in a forest so there's no excuse to where you got that gene from...you need to embrace it"
I smiled a kind smile.
"Thank you Doug, you know, you aren't that bad as I thought" I said, making us both chuckle softly.
"You aren't either" he said.
