Bethany's P.O.V.

The next day after my date with Mason, I had been hanging out with him more and more.

 However, I still felt a pang of hurt, since I figured out I was under a love spell.

Also, he's been a little distant. That didn't even stop me from my feelings.

Mason probably thinks I've been faking my feelings for him, but I haven't. I actually have feelings for him and whether or not he thinks I'm faking, I'll still continue what I am with him.

I was currently getting my dress finishes for the coronation. Lonnie and Audrey were with me just to keep me company. Audrey was painting her nails while Lonnie was braiding her hair. 

I was on a stand as the seamstress continued the measurements and stitching. 

"So, Beth. How's everything with Mason?" Lonnie asked. 

"They're good. I just hate it when he sometimes tends to distant himself." I answered. 

"What do you mean?" Audrey asked. 

"Well, ever since yesterday, he has been distant from me. He saved me from drowning and we almost kissed. Ever since, he hasn't really been talking to me." I explained.

"Oh, Bethany. I'm so sorry." Lonnie said as she placed a hand on my shoulder. 

I could tell both of them were trying not to cry. They really shipped me and Mason together. 

Despite everyone else's opinions, these two were the most supportive ones. 

All Audrey and Lonnie wanted was for me to be happy. Something my parents have wanted as well, but are finding hard to accept the moment.

After 20 minutes, my dress was finally finished and I was ready to go. 

"I'll be right back, girls." I told them. 

They nodded and hugged me before I walked out. I ended up outside the castle and I looked at the Enchanted Forest in the distance. The place Mason and I had our first date.

Don't try to explain your mind
I know what's happening here
One minute it's love and suddenly
It's like a battlefield
One word turns into a war
Why is it the smallest things that tear us down
My world's nothing when you're gone
I'm out here without a shield
Can't go back now

Both hands tied behind my back for nothing, oh, no
These times when we climb so fast to fall again
Why we gotta fall for it now

I never meant to start a war
You know I never wanna hurt you
Don't even know what we're fighting for

Why does love always feel like ...
a battlefield (battlefield)
a battlefield (battlefield)
a battlefield (battlefield)
[repeat]

Why does love always feel like

Can't swallow our pride,
Neither of us wanna raise that flag
If we can't surrender
then we both gonna lose what we had, oh no

Both hands tied behind my back for nothing (nothing)
Oh no, these times when we climb so fast to fall again
I don't wanna fall for it now

I never meant to start a war
You know I never wanna hurt you
Don't even know what we're fighting for

Why does love always feel like ...
a battlefield (battlefield)
a battlefield (battlefield)
a battlefield (battlefield)
[repeat]

I guess you better go and get your armor
(get your armor)
Get your armor (get your armor)
I guess you better go and get your armor
(get your armor)
Get your armor (get your armor)
I guess you better go and get your

We could pretend that we are friends tonight
And in the morning we'll wake up and we'll be alright
Cause baby we don't have to fight
And I don't want this love to feel like

A battlefield (oh), a battlefield (oh), a battlefield,
Why does love always feel like a battlefield (oh),
A battlefield (oh), a battlefield

I guess you better go and get your armor
I never meant to start a war (start a war)
You know I never wanna hurt you
Don't even know what we're fighting for
(fighting, fighting for)

Why does love always feel like ...
a battlefield (battlefield)
a battlefield (battlefield)
a battlefield (battlefield)
[repeat]

I guess you better go and get your armor
(get your armor)
Get your armor (get your armor)
I guess you better go and get your armor
(get your armor)
Get your armor (get your armor)

Why does love always feel like
(whoa ooow)
Why does love always feel like
(whoa ooow)
A battlefield, a battlefield..

[(whoa ooow) throughout to end]
I never meant to start a war
Don't even know what we're fighting for
I never meant to start a war
Don't even know what we're fighting for
(whoa ooow)

I sighed as I turned around. I walked back inside the castle and saw that Mason was there as well. He seemed to be in a conversation with my best friends. 

"What's going on?" I asked. Mason looked at me and began walking forward. 

"Mason, what are you-" I started, but he cut me off. "I'm done hiding." he said.

He cupped my face and captured my lips in his. I froze as I heard the girls clapping and cheering. I slowly relaxed into the kiss and wrapped my arms around his neck. 

It felt...perfect. 

It felt like...true love. 

I think I probably found my true love. 

What does this mean for Auradon, though?

We pulled away and he pulled me into a hug. "I didn't know any other way to show you how I feel." he told me. 

I smiled and hugged him back. "You didn't have to. I think I knew from the moment we began dating." I told him. I heard him let out a chuckle before he pulled away. Mason grabbed my hand and we walked off together.
