Chapter 1

"Hey E, I need help with a science project" Mal casually said as she threw her bag next to her bed as she launched herself on it. Evie trailing right behind her answered, "I can definitely help you with that, what is it on?"

"It has to do with the effects of hormones in the body, specifically the happy hormones. Like seriously there are happy hormones? I should've known about this long ago, it could've been a great trick to have on that dreaded Isle." Evie flinched at Mal's comment, remembering that their life on the Isle of the Lost had been full of misery and pain. She knew what Mal meant, it would have been nice to have some sort of escape from all the abuse their parents put them through. She sighed, the past is past. Mal looked at her with a small smile apologising.

Evie accepted her apology and just explained, "Well yes, happy hormones can help you relieve stress and are what essentially makes us feel excited, awake and active." She then put on a wicked smile as she had an idea.

"Uh Oh, what's up with the smile?" Mal asked with an excited gleam in her eye, she knew her best friend and when she had that face it only meant it was either trouble, fun, or both. Evie shook her head and started putting some things in a bag that from what Mal could see included towels, water bottles and a tube of something she couldn't tell.

Evie then went to Mal's closet and threw something at Mal that she had barely caught and when she set it up at eye level she recognised it as the only bikini she owned. She then threw another set of clothes her way. It was an understatement to say that Mal was confused by Evie's train of thought, but she had to roll with it. She then saw the blue haired girl tornado to her own closet and take out her own two piece bathing suit. "Get ready M, we are going on a study trip." She said as she laid out her stuff on the bed and left the room, confusing Mal even more.

Mal shrugged and started to get changed already taking her shirt off. She then heard the door open quickly, and crossed her arms over herself in instinct. Evie's head peeked inside the room and for a moment she just stared at the purple haired girl taking in how the slight light in the room made a beautiful shade on her bare shoulders and chest, noting that Mal had a slowly creeping blush on her face she shook her head and explained, "I'll be back in a bit, get dressed and pack the second set of clothes I threw you on a bag." With that she left again, leaving a puzzled Mal in the room with the blush slowly going away.

Mal had gotten dressed and packed a bag with her extra clothes. She was about to drop on the bed when she saw Evie with a large picnic basket come through the door. "E, I love you and I try to just roll with you most of the time but seriously what is up?"

"Oh now that I think about it it I didn't explain myself." She expressed sincerely.

"Yeah." Mal said in a "duh" tone.

"I just thought it would stick to you more if you experienced the happy hormones, instead of just studying it from paper." She said with a smirk and a gleam in her eye that screamed mischief.

"O…k… I'll trust you, but only because you promised fun."

"Oh trust me we will have fun…" She raked her eyes up and down Mal, taking in how long her legs looked in those purple shorts and how much skin she was showing with her lilac tank top. Her pale skin a beautiful complement to the colours.

"Earth to Evie, what's with the look..?" Mal asked blushing by the critic look her friend was giving her. Or was that something more?

"Oh sorry, just got distracted…" She blushed at her own actions. Then she unashamedly undressed right in front of Mal heading to her own bed to put on her bikini and then her matching outfit to Mal's but in blue shades.

All while this was happening Mal knew she shouldn't stare, but how could she not? The not-so-evil princess was beautiful, but as soon as she saw her breasts exposed she turned around rapidly, her face hot in embarrassment. Mal get your shit together! She told herself.

"So are we ready to go?" Mal said, still not turning around. She was afraid Evie might see how excited she had gotten, and not in the "let's graffiti the castle walls" way.

"Yes, let's go!" Mal heard the door open and she finally looked at Evie, her face still warm from all the blushing that had happened in the last couple of minutes and hoping that Evie hadn't noticed.

Mal didn't know how Evie knew of the lake but she did, and coming here was giving her flashbacks of when she dated Ben. She pushed the thought away, not wanting to re-experience the roller coaster of feelings she had when dating Ben. She was glad they were still friends, after all he had been extremely nice to her. She just couldn't date him anymore, she had started noticing him less and noticing a certain blue haired beauty more. Now that she thought about it it was ironic that now she was here with Evie.

"Alright, I rushed us here because I wanted to make sure we experienced the sun out." Evie turned to Mal and winked at her "I'll explain in a bit."

Now she paced herself down and set up some towels on the edge on the ruins, taking out some strawberries, chocolate and a set of different flowers which Mal could smell from where she was standing. The smell leaving her in a pleasant state.

"Hmm noticed you just experienced your first happy hormone, now what was it? The sun, the sight of strawberries, or the smell of flowers?" Evie voiced her observation. And Mal lightly blushed at how Evie had been paying attention.

"Uh… I-I don't- It was… As soon as the smell of the flowers hit my nose, I just felt instantly relaxed." She struggled to say at first because Evie was taking off her clothes and putting them aside as she laid back in her bikini.

"That's good, that smell triggered the endorphins on your brain to be released. Aromatherapy is often used to create a stress free environment, you can guess why. That is one of the many happy hormones, but we will focus on 4 today." Evie said as she lay with the sun hitting her directly. She had a tube of sunblock on her hand and pointed at Mal. "Endorphins can also be released with laughter. Good thing we're always making fun of Audrey right?" Evie chuckled.

Mal approached giving Evie a small laugh and took the tube. Understanding the signal before she dropped some on her hand and quickly started rubbing her hands on Evie's arms. She felt herself getting lost in her thoughts as she covered all of Evie's exposed skin. E feels so soft, gosh she's gorgeous with these curves, she said as she passed her hands over Evie's waist, and this tan skin is to die for. Evie let out a few satisfied sighs as she finished up her treatment covering her thighs, where she had hesitated and bit down a creeping blush, then down to her feet, where she prolonged the massage that Evie was enjoying.

"Alright now I'll do you." Evie said matter-of-factly and Mal was blushing as her mind turned that into a dirty thought.

"Ok…" Mal softly answered as she laid down next to Evie's spot where her own purple towel was. She then felt two expert hands massaging her shoulders and squealed in surprise as it was cool to the touch. Soon the cream warmed up and it felt godly, she just relaxed a lot more and felt herself dozing off and like she was up in the clouds.

Evie's hands didn't hesitate, unlike her own, to get every inch of her skin, including her face, arms, stomach, back and when she got to her thighs it felt intimate but she didn't stop it. Instead she let the arousal hit her without shame as her best friend and crush turned to her other thigh and then down to her feet.

"What you are feeling Mal," Evie paused and Mal felt alarmed, could she tell that she was aroused? Oh god, I'm busted. "Is the happy hormone oxytocin," Mal's alarm turned off "it's triggered by physical contact with others, including deep lasting hugs, rubs on the back and holding hands. It can also be released when spending time with a loved one."

"Hmmm.." Mal moaned in pleasure, half listening to what Evie actually said. "You're so good with your hands…" Mal then realised she said that outloud and blushed intensely.

"So I've been told." Evie answered with a teasing tone. "You're not too bad yourself" she added with a smirk in her eyes.

Mal felt hot to the face but oddly relieved that Evie had liked her massage, so she had to ask "Is that also a happy hormone effect?"

"What do you mean?" Evie asked uncertain by what she meant

"Feeling that I did something right."

"Yes actually, dopamine, it is also a hormone linked with addiction. That is because it is often mentioned with cigarettes or cocaine. But actually it varies in effect depending on the pathway it's on." Mal looked confused now and Evie sighed

"Forget about the details, we'll get into the more technical things later, for now… just feel." Evie said while taking Mal's hand in hers.

"Ok, so we've covered endorphin, oxytocin and dopamine. What's next?" Mal said actually paying attention

"Serotonin." Evie said as she looked at Mal with seductive eyes, Mal didn't know why she was giving her that look but it was making her arousal even worse, or better?

"Alright… What's the example for that one?" Mal asked suddenly really hot and bothered by how Evie looked at her and how she started tracing her stomach with a finger.

"Shh… we'll get there." Evie put a finger to her lips to assure her. Suddenly she pushed her finger inside her mouth while looking at her with an intense smolder.

Mal's stomach flared up, finally completely turned on by her best friend's behaviour. She sucked on Evie's fingers and then the blue princess pulled them back so unexpectedly quick that Mal let a whine slip out in response. Suddenly wondering if what she did was wrong she looked expectantly at her best friend.

Evie was perfectly calm, looking at Mal with a twinkle in her eyes that could only be described as lust. Well then, I guess that she wants me too, Mal finally figured.

"Oh I forgot to mention, the sunlight also increases serotonin, which is why I wanted us to get the sun on our skin. I know you prefer your dark and light-free envoronment but it was fitting for the occassion."

Oh don't worry about it, I very much enjoyed seeing the sun hit your beautiful skin, Mal thought to herself, or so she thought because as soon as she thought that Evie threw her a seductive smile her eyes looking her up and down. Oh shit I said that outloud, didn't I?

"Yup, you did. But it's quite alright M. I've seen how you look at me," Evie caresses Mal's cheek and it made Mal shuddered in delight, noting that it was probably both the oxytocin and dopamine in her body. "It's the same way I look at you" The blue haired beauty got close to her and merely inches away asked, "Do you want me to explain or show you the last one?"

At first Mal didn't understand what she was talking about, but it clicked she was talking about hormones, serotonin specifically. That was what they were supposed to be doing, but up until now all she knew and felt was how good Evie made her feel. She was completely entranced by her beauty, the way her hair flowed, the way her eyes looked at her, the tiny knowing smile on her plump lips, her never ending curves, the feel of her hands on her stomach, on her cheek, on her neck.

When Mal's mind got back on track she realised she was in Evie's arms, pulled by the waist to her body with one arm and the other using it's hand to trail her jawline and soon reaching her lips. She also realised she hadn't answered the question.

"I-I'd like for y-you to sho–" she didn't even finish her embarrassing display of illiteracy caused by all the different feelings her body was reacting to. She didn't get to let out a full sentence laced with her burning anticipation for more of Evie's touch. But that was only because said princess had pressed her lips to her own.

Suddenly Mal felt extremely relieved and relaxed as she smiled kissing Evie back with full force. Gosh, her lips are so soft, they both thought. Evie parted her lips and kissed Mal again wanting to get more of them. Mal happily did the same. Their lips softly pressed and perfectly molded to their own, and it felt magical.
