Sudden Feelings | Marlos

Chapter 6

After they walked back to her room she laid down on the bed and started looking at the ceiling.

''So are you guys good now, or do we have to take care of this?" Evie said as she pointed to her and Jay. Carlos laughed at them and nodded happy. ''Then why's Mal still kinda...weird?" Jay asked, glancing over at Mal who was daydreaming or something.

Evie sat up from her seat and snapped her fingers in front of Mal's eyes.

''Huh? What's wrong?'' Mal said and stood up beside Carlos. Evie laughed, knowing what she was daydreaming about, then shoot her a wink.

"Err.. what was that?" The boys asked at the same time. Mal blushed and laughed it off.

Evie noticed that the sky was no longer a light blue. It was a black with little stars here and there. She gasped and checked the time. "10 PM?! It's really late!" she said surprised and grabbed her stuff. "See you guys tommorow! Gotta get that beauty sleep. Oh, and Mal, tomorrow 3 PM, my room." Mal nodded and waved goodbye.

"Shouldn't you guys go sleep aswell? It's really late." Mal asked Carlos and Jay.

"Um, yeah. Totally forgot. Haha." Carlos said smiling sheepishly. His reaction made Mal giggle as she stared at him for a couple of seconds. ''C'mon Carlos. Let's go.'' Jay said and opened the door, waiting for him.

Carlos followed and before closing the door behind him, he glanced at Mal.

''See ya tommorow, I guess.'' He said while grinning, and closed the door, leaving Mal to her thoughts. She loves how caring Carlos is and he's also protective. He's accepted her for who she really is, unlike Ben who got mad at her when she used magic.

It's part of who she is and Ben can't ask her to get rid of her magic. He shouldn't ask her to change for him. No one would ask anyone to change for them, unless they want to change for themselves.

Maybe I dodged a bullet. Carlos was right. "If Ben doesn't love the real you, then he's not the one." He never really loved me, just the idea of someone he can control. I understand that he needs a Queen who can fit the role, but it's not me. I'm from the Isle and learned how to do things differently from everyone at Auradon.

It's not my fault I have magic. Whatever. I don't care anymore. At least people know to stay out of my way.

I'm not going to pretend to be someone I'm not for anyone. I'm Mal, daughter of Maleficent, best friend to Carlos, Evie and Jay. I'm not going to sit around feeling sorry for myself. Ben doesn't deserve anything from me, let alone me as his girlfriend. He can go back to dating Audrey and be miserable with her because I never loved him.

Mal stood up and got ready to sleep, feeling better about her life.

She's going to take charge of it and won't let anyone take advantage of her again.
