"Oh."

"I know."

"I look..."

"Say it."

"Not hideous."

"Not even close."

"Ok you got this" Evie said trying to calm me down

"Ok you got this" Evie said trying to calm me down.

"I got this" I said

One wrong move and it will ruin the plan.

Opening the door I see Caspian about to knock

"Wow..." he says with a smile and I blush a little.

On our way Penelope came up to us

"Hey Caspian" she said with a small smile I wanted to slap it off her face

"Oh! Hey Penelope" Caspian said as he stared at her a little. I could see a flicker in his eyes. Like he's deciding something.

I put my hands around his arm.

"Hey Penelope" I say with a smile

"Mal" she says smile dropping a little

"Right, Mal..." Caspian begins "if you'll excuse us we are going on a date."

"A-A date?" She falter a little swaying backwards. Once push and she'd be down. I smile sickly at her while Caspian reaches a hand out to her but I slap it down. He looks at mean confused but I light my eyes up and he's back.

"Yes a date." He says

"Now MOVE" I say as we move away from her while she stills

"Where are you taking me?" I fake laugh as Caspian leads me into the forest.

What if he knows and he's going to arrest me or kill me in private?

"It's my escape" he responds as we cross the bridge. "Tell me something about yourself that you've never told anyone."

"Um... My middle name is Bertha." I don't know why I just said that

"Bertha?" He laughed a little

"Yeah. Bertha. Just my mom doing what she does best. Being really, really evil. Mal Bertha."

"Mine's Kit"

"Kit?" That's... kinda cute "like a first aid kit?"

"Yeah."

"How Regular. Oh, that's almost normal."

"I mean, you know, It's better than Bertha. But it's still not... watch your foot. Yeah. Are you good?"

"Mm-hmm."

"Now, step up. There you go. You ready?"

"Mm-hmm."




"Open. Go on."

What if it's poison?

"Mm..." I hate that it was delicious

"Is this your first time?"

"Mm... We don't really date much on the island. It's more like... Gang activity." Why am I telling him so much? Maybe it's truth telling round things

"Um, I meant, is this your first time eating a jelly donut?"

"Is it bad?"

"You got a... Just a... I mean, yeah, do this." He licks his lips after he tried to wipe it off me

"Mm-hmm. Gone? You can't take me anywhere, I guess."

"You know, I've done all the talking. Your turn. I really don't know that much about you.
Tell me something."

"Well, I'm 16. I'm an only child." I guess " And I've only ever lived in one place."

"Me, too." "Well except the only child thing. We have so much in common already."

"No. Trust me, we do not. And now you're gonna be king."

"Yeah."

"What?"

"A crown doesn't make you a king."

"Well, it kind of does."

"No, it... Your mother is mistress of evil and I've got the poster parents for goodness. But we're not automatically like them. We get to choose who we're gonna be. And right now, I can look into your eyes and I can tell you're not evil. I can see it. Let's go for a swim."

"Hm? What? Uh... Right now?" Maybe he's not that bad

"Yeah, right now."

"I think I'm just gonna stay here."

"No, no, no. Come on."

"I think I'm gonna stay behind and try a strawberry. I've literally never tried a strawberry before. Mm! Mm..."

"Don't eat all of them."

"Okay. Ooh! Mm. Are those little crowns on your shorts?"

"Maybe. Whoo! Ha-ha!"



"Caspian? Caspian? Caspian! Ugh! You scared me!" I was scared when I didn't see him.

Is this a set up? Did he leave to get the guards?

I jump in in search of him. Splashing around because water got in my eye and it started to burn.

Then I felt like I was being carried

"You... you can't swim?" He asked as he put me down.

Hmm we could play with this.

"No!"

"You live on an island!" Correct that's why I'm a great swimmer. Never know if you have to escape sharks set out by Uma

"Yeah, with a barrier around it, remember? Ugh!"

"And you still tried to save me." Make me the hero

"Yeah. And do you thank me? No! All I get is soaking wet!"

"And, uh, this fancy rock. It's yours. Make a wish and throw it back in the lake. What... Uh, Mal... I told you that I loved you. What about you? Do you love me?" Probably fake. I don't need wishes I need the wand

"I don't know what love feels like."

"Maybe I can teach you."
