Hey guys, welcome to my final part of my 'Oh What A' series! I say that this is the last part of this series but you never know what is going to happen in the future. So without further ado here is Oh What A Morning... Much love RSD xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox.
*Mal's POV*
We had just pulled to a stop outside of Auradon Cathedral in my closed top carriage; my stomach fluttered. This was it! Me and Ben were finally getting married; it had been six months since Ben had asked me to marry him and to be honest it still only feels like yesterday.
When my mind went onto Ben I couldn't help it but a large grin spread across my face as I started to think about my perfect Beast. I couldn't wait to be his wife so we could start to live our lives properly together. Me and Ben had already had enough drama to last us a lifetime; and I knew that there would be times that would be hard for us but as long as we had each other we would get through it.
"Mal" I heard a voice say which made me look over at Evie.
"Yes?" I asked innocently.
"You've got your Ben thinking face on" she teased.
"I would say I am sorry-" I chuckled.
"But I'm not" I laughed.
"Have you seen my soon to be husband?" I asked rhetorically as I sighed as my mind wandered back onto Ben.
"Yes; but I can't really comment as he's your man" she stated.
"Like Doug is yours" I advised with a smug grin.
"Yes!" she exclaimed and she started to stare into space.
"Well you know what they say?" I teased as I started to feel playfully which made her look back at me.
"What?" she asked.
"The best man tends to get with the maid of honour" I giggled.
"Mal!" she exclaimed as she playfully shoved me.
"What?" I asked innocently as I shrugged.
"It's true. Ben has three best men; and you are dating one of them" I added dismissively.
"Yeah" she agreed.
"My Dougy" she cooed and I watched as she started to stare into space as her mind went back onto her beloved Doug. As she did this I then started to think about my mother; I would have loved her to be here today but we hadn't formed that type of relationship. If anything it was worse since she had changed back from a little gecko and was sent back to the Isle. I had tried to visit her and I had face timed her a few times but they didn't end well; I remained confident that at one day we might be able to have some form of a stable relationship but unfortunately it wasn't in time for my wedding.
"Mal?" I heard Evie say which broke me out of my train of thought.
"Yes E" I advised as I slowly looked up at her.
"What's wrong?" she asked and I watched as her face dropped into panic and concern.
"Nothing" I advised.
"Don't give me that Mal; you're crying" she answered.
"Am I?" I asked in shock and I touched my cheeks and I froze when I realised that Evie was right.
"So you tell me what is on your mind-" she started as she quickly opened her bag.
"While I try to make it look like you haven't been crying" she offered and she pulled a tissue out and she started to lightly dab my eyes and cheeks.
"Deal" I said meekly.
"I was just thinking about my mother; I guess-" I started as I tried not to let my eyes water even more.
"I guess I just wish things could be different; like when she changed from a gecko. I had hoped that she had found some love for me; I know I am asking for a miracle but a girl can dream right?" I asked hopefully.
"Of course" she answered.
"It's natural for you to want a relationship with your mother Mal; everyone wants one" she added as she continued to lightly dap my cheeks.
"Yeah" I said.
"I'm glad that you and your mother have settled things" I stated. I was glad that unlike me and my mother Evie had managed to form somewhat of a relationship with her mother. Evil Queen had come to accept that Evie was with Doug - she even told her that she was proud of her making a life for herself. Yes I might not have that relationship with my mother; but I was really happy at the fact that things had worked out for Evie.
"Yeah" she answered.
"Yes I think there is a part of me that thinks she is still disappointed that I didn't chase a prince. But she can see that I need to make my own choices; whether she likes them or not" she continued as she looked slowly up and down my face.
"Yeah" I repeated.
"I think you should be fine" she advised as she pulled her hand away and placed the tissue back into her bag. I then watched as she closed it quickly with an abrupt snap.
"Now try and not cry again" she teased.
"Until you get to Ben anyway" she giggled.
"Hey!" I said pretending to sound hurt. I knew what she meant; after our marriage ceremony was finished I knew that Evie would need to pull me to one side to help me sort my makeup out again. Over the course of this morning I had been on a very emotional roller-coaster; I loved Ben so much and I kept getting so overwhelmed at the fact that I was marrying my soul mate.
"What is that supposed to mean?" I asked.
"Mal you have been very emotional this morning" she reminded me. This was true I had broken down at least four times in happy tears due to the feeling of sudden overwhelment over the fact that I was finally marrying Ben.
"That would be correct" I agreed.
"I wouldn't be surprised if you and Ben don't cry at some point in your wedding" she giggled.
"Probably" I agreed.
"You are both two very sensitive souls" she noted.
"Yeah. But he's my soul mate" I added happily as I let my mind start to wander back onto my perfect Beast.
"Of course" she agreed.
"One of which will start to worry if we don't leave this carriage" she teased.
"Probably" I agreed.
"We should probably get out of here before he starts to come looking for you" she advised as we both stood up slowly trying not to crease our dresses. I loved both of our dresses; Evie really did do us both proud. I was wearing a white floor length strapless dress, with a sparkling lace bodice that was covered in light purple and green gemstones which dropped from the top of the dress right to the bottom spiralling down. It had a low V-neck and a large underskirt that made the dress fluff out. The crowning glory was the fact that Evie had managed to stitch my double dragon mark onto the left hand side on my corset in light purple thread.
Evie was wearing a deep blue velvet slim line dress that had a red sash around the waist. However this dress was held up by being held up on Evie's left shoulder as the dress diagonally swept over her chest. Blue rhinestones fell down her dress so when the light caught her dress her dress sparkled. Me and Evie both had our hairs up in elegant buns and over my veil I had the silver hair piece that Ben had given me for my first family day at Auradon.
"Yeah" I stated happily as I watched as the carriage door opened and Evie went to step out however I was taken aback as the door slammed shut as the carriage suddenly pulled off causing Evie to land harshly on me.
"OW!" I shouted in pain.
"Sorry" Evie quickly apologised.
"It's ok" I muttered but then as I heard gasps from the crowds outside I started to panic.
"What on the Isle?" I asked as Evie quickly slid off me but we were both unable to get up from the floor due to the speed and force the carriage was going. I unwillingly let panic embed my body; what was happening? Was there an emergency? If there was I don't think Ben would have let me get this far? I should have gotten out of the carriage and walked down the aisle to Ben. Unless... no! Had Ben changed his mind? No if he had changed his mind it wouldn't have ended like this; he would have asked to see me. Me and Evie wouldn't have been dragged away like this; I threw Evie a startled look and we both started to fall into even further into panic - what on Auradon was happening on my wedding day?
