Princess of Hearts

New Beginnings

Auradon, it's beautiful, isn't it? I'm Heather, daughter of the Queen of Hearts. I guess that makes me the Princess of Hearts. Anyway, this is my home. It wasn't always. I was born on the Isle of the Lost, where all the villains had been banished, locked away for good. That is until Prince Ben decided that they're children should have a chance. And so, five V.K.s came to Auradon, including me. Long story short, Ben is the king now, and Mal is his girlfriend.

You know, Mal's not the only one to fall for an Auradon kid. Evie and Doug have been dating for awhile; however, they haven't told each other "I love you" yet, but they'll get there. Carlos and Jane have been pretty good. They just reached their 1-year anniversary. Jane's birthday is actually coming up quickly. I'm still not entirely sure what the deal with Jay and Lonnie is, but you've got to admit that they're perfect for each other.

As for Aziz and me, well, nothing's really official yet. It's kind of complicated. We know we like each other: we hang out all the time, we hold hands, we give each other warm hugs, and he makes me smile like no one can, but we haven't exactly gotten to the point where we've been able to say we're "dating". You know?

A lot has changed since we last spoke, hasn't it? Well, it's been a little over a year since Cotillion. My first school year at Auradon Prep came to an end. Last summer was amazing. Ben and the others took us V.K.s on a road trip all across Auradon. It was really cool. I got to meet Aziz's family in Agrabah and visit Wonderland. Alli, daughter of Alice, introduced me to her family. I was terrified at first, but they were actually very welcoming. Alice was so nice to me despite the things my mother put her through all those years ago. The Mad Hatter even threw me a Very Merry Un-Birthday Party. 

School started again. Junior year was pretty tough, but Carlos, Jane, Aziz, and I got through it. Even though summer just started, I honestly cannot wait for senior year. Mal, Evie, Jay, Ben, Doug, Lonnie, and Chad all graduated. Audrey was supposed to graduate with them, but she missed a lot, so she's doing summer school. I kind of feel bad for her, but, you know, not at that much considering how she treated us V.K.s. I mean, I do genuinely feel bad that she was humiliated in front of the whole school at the tourney game; I don't think anyone, no matter who they are, deserves that. Well, maybe our parents.

Since graduating, Mal moved into the castle with Ben. Evie and Doug bought a cottage together, and Evie expanded her shop, Evie's 4 Hearts. Jay got accepted into Sherwood Forest University. He's going to be playing tourney at the college level! Lonnie is going to be playing pro R.O.A.R. for her hometown, Northern Wei. Unfortunately, she had to leave to due early practices, so she couldn't spend summer with us. I miss her. As for the others, I'm not exactly sure what they're doing, but I know they have plans for their future.

Anyway, I almost forgot to tell you all the exciting part! We are about to head back to the Isle to pick what will hopefully be a long line of new V.K.s who get to come to Auradon and find their happily ever afters too. There's this little girl on the Isle. I hope she applied. Sort of like how Dizzy is like a little sister to Evie, this little girl is like my little sister. I am so honored to be apart of this new beginning for both Auradon and the Isle.

Guess who's back. Back again. Guess who's back. Tell a friend.
