"My mother never got over losing Rapunzel but when when I came around she was slightly more okay with letting me out of the house. I'm allowed to actually go to school, though of course you know that It's only Dragon hall, nothing like your school but it's still school. Now I even get an hour and a half after school that allows me to do so much more than I could when you guys were still here. I was at Jafar's store when I met the man who said he could get my letters to you, I don't know if you even actually know anyone who brings supplies over to the Isle, but he heard me talking about you and Jay with Jafar and he spoke so many praises. I heard that Jay was on the tourney team, the delivery guy says he's amazing. He said that you were on the team too but he told me more about your brain. He said that you made the 3D printers better and that you're on the path to become an engineer. Though I don't exactly know what a 3D printer is but I'm sure what you did is amazing. I'm a little jealous of you, you get to have the big brain and the nice school. Carlos I'm so proud of you. Tell Jay that I'm proud of him too, it's so crazy that the cocky lab partner I got my freshman year of highschool would be a hot shot in Auradon."

I sigh, staring at the sheet of paper in front of me, it has been months since I saw them. My writing to Carlos wasn't exactly what I wanted it to be, in all honesty I can't even tell if I want to be writing to him at all. I wanted him to know how my life was of course, but the true person I wanted to talk to out of the group is the boy who used to sneak up to my window every night. The one who would sneak up that old dying tree and sit on the thickest limb there was up at the level of my window and sit there until the sun was rising so we could just talk. The one who would send me exhausted smiles across classrooms and cafeterias the day after we stayed up talking. The cocky lab partner that became the perfect friend and even at some point a little bit more than that. The one who would climb into my windows on the worst nights and just, hold me.

I doubt that he would want to hear from me, I'm sure there's a new girl in his life, maybe even a boy. I hope they're both happy with whatever the two of them found to occupy their time. I hope that the shy, scared, little boy who walked up to me in the library during lunch and asked if I would want to be friends with him on our first day of school has found a large friend group and maybe even a girlfriend of his own in Auradon. I hope she's good to him, and gentle. But none of my hopes for him and Jay are things I can bring myself to write down. I don't know how to tell him what my life is like with out them, and I'm scared that if I write down my hopes for him that it would come back to my biggest hope. I'm scared I'll tell them that I want them to come home to me. Telling him that would be the most selfish thing in the world and that's why I can't seem to write this well.

I pick the pencil back up, twirling it between my fingers, "How do you write to someone about what is going on in your life without telling them what they shouldn't know?" A sudden knock on the wall outside causes me to jump out of my skin and drop the pencil, breaking the tip of it. I jump to my feet, turning to look at the window that sat behind me. The face I saw at the window making me feel like I was going crazy. "To answer your question, if goodness class taught me one thing, it's that lying is never the answer." "Jay?" He smiles softly, letting himself climb through the window, "You should really keep that locked, Princess, what if the villain of your story climbs through it instead of me?" "Well, Spidermonkey, I guess that would be really bad for me," the familiar words seemed to roll off of my tongue as I look at him, still trying to figure out if he's real. Jay steps closer to me, placing his large hand back onto my hips and pulling me up to him.

"I can't be here as often as I would like to protect you, Princess, I need you to have those windows locked," he whispers, leaning down so that our foreheads and noses touched. "What are you doing back?" He hums, "Mal ran back to the Isle, we had to come to get her back for Ben, but it turns out we were all too stupid to realize that bringing Ben was a bad idea." I look into the dark eyes before mine and felt the familiar calm wash over me, "You always were one for bad ideas Jay." He chuckles, pecking my lips, "I guess you could say that I've only ever had one good idea." I hum, reaching up to peck his lips back, "What would that idea be?" "Well, you see, in Auradon they have this thing called love, it was a foreign concept to me when I first found out about it. But it makes me think about this one girl back on the isle, who spends all her time reading books and hiding me from her mother." I bite my lip to hide the smile that is trying to cross my face.

"Is that why you're here Jay?" He smiles, pulling his face away from mine, "Actually I'm here because Carlos wanted help from the biggest brain on the Isle, but I needed to tell you that before I told you that he wanted you." I giggle softly, "Of course Carlos sent you." "But I was going to come see you anyway before we went back. I needed to see you." I smile up at him, "You have no idea how much I missed you." His hand leaves my left hip to cup my cheek, "What were you working on when I scared you?" "I was actually writing a letter to Carlos, the guy who brings supplies over said he would get the letter to him." "You weren't writing me a letter?" I bite my lip, looking away from him, "I was scared that you forgot about me."

"He couldn't forget about you, he talks about you every single day. Did you ask her yet?" Carlos' voice drifts in through the doorway causing me to smile. "He asked me but he had to confess his undying love first. Not like I'll ever get to see you again," the last part came out as a whisper. Jays lips found their way to my jawline for the first time in months, "We are going to see each other again. Every chance I get." "Come on if you help us save Ben we'll guilt him into bringing you back with us," Carlos smiles from the window, "Now Jay, can you just ask her to be your girlfriend so that we can go? I've listened to you talk about wanting to ask her out for months but you're taking forever to do it!" "Look who's talking!" Jay laughs as he snaps at Carlos. "Oh there's a girl?" I ask with a smirk, watching a pink blush spread across his face, "You have to tell me everything Carlos." "I will, now I will be waiting at the bottom of this tree, and if you two aren't down here in five minutes I will be dragging you both out of here,"Carlos' laugh brought a familiar smile to my face.

The last of his salt and pepper hair disappeared before Jay turned me back to face him. "So, the pup kind of ruined my plans on how I was going to say this but-" I cut Jay off with a smile, "Yes Jay, I will be your girlfriend. But you have to promise if you and Carlos can't talk Ben into bringing me with you guys that you will come to see me." "Promise," he whispers, leaning back down to kiss me. "We better get down that tree now though, we can't have the big ad dog drag us out," Jay chuckles, grabbing my hand to pull me to the window. "Would you look at Jay and (Y/n), falling back into bed together," Mal's voice drifted up to us causing Jay to roll his eyes. "We're the next Flynn and Rapunzel, Mal," he laughs, grabbing my hand to help me out of the room. "Well, then I'll help you get her to Auradon," Mal says with a smile from beneath us. "Me too!" Evie's giggle comes up to us as I step out onto the tree branch. "Guys shut up before you wake up my mom!"Jay chuckles slightly,"It takes a lot to wake her up." "Oh shut up, Spidermonkey."
