Prompt from PinkSakura271.


As was usual for Jay's weekends, he was sat in the palace in Agrabah. He had become rather close to Jasmine and Aladdin and often wished he could have been raised by them and not his father. Although he's never told anyone that. But as he sat there with Aladdin he couldn't help but remember something he wanted to ask. "Can I ask you something, Aladdin?" Jay questioned. Turning to face the teen Aladdin nodded almost instantly. "What was your life like before you met Jasmine?" He asked.

The question confused Aladdin a little. He wasn't sure why Jay would ask him that but he decided to humour the teen. "Honestly, my life wasn't great." He stated, gaining Jay's attention immediately. He wasn't exactly proud of his past but he wouldn't lie to the teen. "I was living on the streets before Jasmine came into my life, it was just me and Abu." The dark haired man explained. "I would steal food to eat and survive." He stated. As he noticed a shocked but hopeful look cross his face Aladdin knew why Jay had asked, he thought he wasn't good enough for a girl because he was from the Isle.

"I was called a street rat, worthless, everything you could think of." He told Jay. "Everyone looked down on me because I was on the street, because I stole to survive. It wasn't the best start in life I could have had but without all that I wouldn't be who I am today." He stated. "You're worried you're not good enough for a girl right? That's why you asked?" Aladdin questioned, unable to keep his questions to himself any more.

Nodding Jay's gaze drifted down to the floor. "Yeah. I mean she's not a princess but she's amazing." Jay told the only father figure he's ever really had in his life. "She smart, funny, beautiful and likes the same stuff I do. I'm just not sure I'm good enough. I'm from the Isle, I stole, I fought, I terrorized. She deserves better then me." The long haired ex-thief admitted to the royal, his gaze never leaving the floor.

"Jay, look at me." Aladdin said and Jay immediately looked up. "I felt the exact same way you do know when I found out Jasmine was the princess." He admitted causing Jay's eyes to widen. "I tried to change myself into the prince I thought she deserved, but she loved me the way I was not as who I thought she deserved. Why don't you tell this girl how you feel and let her decide. If she can't see the amazing young man you are then she doesn't deserve you because you are good enough, Jay. You deserve someone who likes you for who you are."

The teen sat there silently for a while digesting Aladdin's words. He couldn't help but think of Lonnie. She had always treated him the same as she treat anyone else in Auradon, so maybe Aladdin was right. Maybe he should let Lonnie decide if he was enough for her. "Thank you." Jay said before hugging the royal. Aladdin was shocked by the hug but instantly returned the embrace before watching Jay leave the room. He just hoped his words would stay with Jay and the teen would give himself a chance. Because he meant what he said. Jay was good enough for anyone he deemed worthy of his love, just as he had been good enough for Jasmine.
