Guys, I am so sorry for the super late update. I've been really busy lately and I couldn't find time to write it. But don't worry, to make up for it I'm gonna post another chapter first thing tomorrow. I hope you like this one. Please make sure to follow, favorite and review! I promise the next one will be up soon.
Once Fairy Godmother left, the rest of the students began to leave as well. Ben smiled warmly at them, but Carlos only stared at him. He really didn't know what to make of this prince yet.
Ben stepped forward to greet them all, "It is so, so good to finally-," as he approached Jay, Jay punched him in the shoulder as his way of greeting. Carlos smirked at Ben's reaction. "Meet you," he finished, caught a little off guard.
He moved over to Mal and shook her hand. Carlos watched as Ben's expression softened for a moment, staring at Mal. It only lasted a few seconds before Ben snapped up and moved over to him, releasing Mal's hand. Carlos stared suspiciously, that would definitely go unnoticed by him.
"This is a momentous occasion," Ben said formally, shaking Carlos's hand. "One that I hope will go down in history-," He pulled his hand back, biting his nail, tasting what was on Carlos' hand. "Is that chocolate?"
Carlos didn't know what chocolate was, but he was pretty sure it was the candy he was eating in the limo. The remains of it were all over his hands and he assumed his mouth. He brought his thumb to his mouth and licked off some of the chocolate, only staring at Ben.
The prince finally reached Evie and finished, "As the day our two people began to heal."
"Or the day you showed four people where the bathrooms are," Mal said flatly.
"A little bit over the top?" Ben asked, laughing a little.
"A little more than a little bit."
"Well, so much for my first impression," he joked, causing them both to laugh a little. Carlos figured Mal was only being polite again to get on this guy's good side, but something about their interaction suggested something different.
"Hey, you're Maleficent's daughter right?" Aubrey interrupted from beside Ben. Carlos nearly rolled his eyes; expecting whatever was next would be about her. Aubrey seemed like the self-absorbed type. "You know I totally don't blame you for your mother trying to kill my parents and stuff. Oh, my mom's Aurora. Sleeping-,"
"Beauty," Mal stopped her. "Yeah, I've heard the name."
Carlos glanced back at Mal, almost letting out a laugh. Mal definitely knew the name. Her mother ranted on and on about how the 'evil little princess' ruined her life almost every other day. Carlos wouldn't be surprised if Mal hated Sleeping Beauty just from hearing about her all the time. Also, there's the fact she ruined her mother's life of course.
"And I totally, do not blame your grandparents for inviting everyone in the whole world, but my mother, to their stupid christening," Mal said fake-smiling, her voice laced with annoyance as she lied.
"Water under the bridge," Aubrey agreed.
"Totes," Mal said. The two laughed, but anyone could tell it was filled with hatred for each other and it faded out awkwardly.
"Okay," Ben said clapping. "How about a tour? Yeah?"
Carlos perked up at that. As much as he hated all these people, he couldn't help but be fascinated by the building before him, it was amazing.
"Auradon Prep," Ben said gesturing to the building. Aubrey laced her arm through his and they began walking towards the school. "Originally built over three hundred years ago, but converted into a high school by my father when he became king."
