Synopsis: Max pick pockets Rapunzel's daughter, not knowing she has a few tricks up her sleeve.
Max Hatter Masterlist Here
Being that daughter of Rapunzel and Eugene, you were bound to inherit some of your parents' traits. You developed a passion for the arts, especially painting and sketching, from your mom. And you also gained a special knack for pickpocketing or getting into places you shouldn’t be, much to your dad’s amusement. You never used these talents to cause harm to others, but if it meant defeating Maximus and Pascal in a game of hide and seek, you never hesitated to use them.
After the barrier came down around the Isle of the Lost, the differences between the HKs and the VKs became much more apparent. Groups began to form and all of a sudden, you were placed with the HKs, not that you minded their company. By the time you were old enough to attend Auradon Prep, it seemed that most people had forgotten your father’s past and therefore had a tendency to underestimate you. Not that you ever corrected them because it was always nice to have an ace up your sleeve.
One afternoon as you are making your way to your heroic leadership class, you bump into Max Hatter as you are turning a corner which sends you tumbling to the ground. Expecting him to walk away and leave you there, you are surprised to see him extend his hand out to you.
“You better watch where you're going princess. You never know who you might bump into” Max smirks down at you while simultaneously helping you up.
“Sorry, I must have been a little distracted” you politely respond back. Noticing the your wrist that was wearing a bracelet feels lighter, you check and see that your bracelet is gone. Instead of calling Max out on this, you decide to have a bit of fun.
Going into full damsel in distress, princess mode you fling your arms around Max pulling him into a hug. “Thank you so much for helping me up. You really didn’t have to do that” you say as sweetly as possible while stealthily removing his wallet from his coat as you pull away from him.
Max, too flustered by the sudden and unexpected display of affection, does not notice his wallet is now missing.
“Yeah, well just..'uh...don’t let it happen again” Max stammers out with his cheeks tinted with a light pink that was not there before.
“Well, I will see you around Max. I better get to class since I don't want to be late” you say with a smile before turning away and setting off towards your class. As you walk away, you can’t help the grin on your face as you wonder how long it will take for him to notice his wallet is gone.
Max, completely dumbfounded by the entire interaction, stands unmoving, and watches you walk away. Realizing what he is doing, he snaps himself out of it and heads to his class.
It would not be until after the final class ends that Max would realize that his wallet is missing. Max is currently sitting in the garden talking with the other VKs.
“You should have seen the look on his face after the reading I gave him” Felix laughs as he recounts his earlier tarot reading with one of the HKs that morning.
“Sounds like a blast” Hazel barely responds, as she is more focused on trying to get the Smees to stop climbing the nearby tree before they hurt themselves.
“I had the strangest interaction with who I think is Rapunzel's daughter. I never caught her name.” Max says to the group now that Felix is done with his story.
“I think it’s Y/N” Felix responds, having met you in his Auradon's history class.
After learning your name Max couldn’t help but notice how much it suited you.
“Well, she crashed into me this morning, causing her to fall down. When I helped her up, I saw that she had a nice bracelet so I snatched it. Then out of nowhere she hugged me before running off” Max tells his friends, still confused by the experience.
“Hugged you? Oh, I wish I could have seen that” Hazel laughs at Max after having successfully distracted the Smees with snacks. “Did she notice the missing bracelet?”
“No, she didn’t. It looks expensive though” Max shares as he reaches into his coat pocket to show his friends the bracelet. While he is able to find the bracelet, his pocket is noticeably emptier. Realizing what has happened, Max exclaims “My wallet is gone! I think the princess snatched my wallet!”
Hazel and the other VKs finding the situation hilarious start crying out with laughter. The image of a princess taking Max’s wallet is too ridiculous not to laugh at.
“The princess took your wallet, and you didn’t even notice. No wonder she hugged you out of nowhere” Hazel continues to laugh while drying a fake tear from her eye with her hook.
“It's not funny guys!” Max responds distressed. “I thought she was just overly nice like some of the other HKs. Now I’m going to have to go find her to get it back”. Max stands up getting ready to go search for Y/N.
“Good luck with that” Felix tells his friend while still laughing.
Across campus, you are happily painting away in the art classroom. Technically no students are supposed to be in here, but after you had picked the lock multiple times, Fairy Godmother got tired of trying to stop you since you weren’t doing anything besides paint. Unsure of what to paint today, you dipped your paintbrush into some purple paint before bringing it up to the canvas. Your brush glides across the canvas, and while you were unsure of what you were painting, you knew it would come to you soon.
As Max passed by the art classroom in search of you, he heard movement coming from inside the classroom. This stood out to him as there were normally no teachers left in the classroom at this hour. Moving closer to investigate, he sees you inside the classroom painting.
Opening the door quickly Max exclaims “You took my wallet!”
Surprised by his sudden appearance you drop your paint brush, which thankfully misses the canvas. “You made me drop my brush” you huff out sadly.
“You took my wallet earlier” Max repeats again, not caring about having startled you.
“And you took my bracelet” You respond unimpressed, picking up your dropped brush.
“If you knew I took your bracelet, why didn’t you say anything?” Max questions.
“Where’s the fun in that? I wanted to see how long it would take you to notice” you laugh, pulling out Max’s wallet from your bag.
“I don’t think stealing wallets is very princessy behavior” Max can’t help but grin at you, intrigued by your behavior.
“Well, my dad used to be a thief, and you were just asking for it when you took my bracelet.” You smile at him. “I’ll trade you your wallet back for my bracelet.”
“Hmm” Max hums. “Or I could keep your bracelet, and you give me my wallet back.” He smirks at you.
“Ha. Very funny Max” You respond sarcastically. “How about I keep your wallet and steal my bracelet back when you least expect it, leaving you with nothing.”
“Fine, your bracelet for my wallet” Max concedes, taking your bracelet out of his pocket.
You and Max trade back your items keeping a close eye on each other to make sure neither of you takes something from the other.
“It was a pleasure doing business with you Max” you tell him as you begin to pack your stuff up getting ready to leave the classroom as it was getting late.
“I never knew a princess could have such sticky fingers” Max says with a smile.
“Well, there’s a lot you don’t know about me” you smile back at him before walking up to Max, reaching up to cradle his face, and planting a soft kiss on his cheek. Stepping back from him, you add with a wink “I’ll see you around Hatter”.
Before Max knew it, you were out the door before he even had the chance to respond. It was only when he heard your laughter down the hallway, did he realize that his hat was missing.
Breathless and rosy cheeked Max knew that would not be the last time he saw you.

Synopsis: The VKs and the HKs finally find you and Max. After a blow up between friends, you and Max finally admit your feelings for each other.
Find the Series Masterlist Here
After searching the Enchanted Forest for over an hour the VKs and the HKs were totally lost. They had passed the same tree at least 4 times now and there was still no sign of Max or Y/N. Who knew that enchanted forests could be so complicated to navigate.
“I don’t think Max and Y/N are out here,” sighed Pink.
“Of course they are out here. Otherwise, we have wasted the entire night in this stupid forest for nothing” snapped Hazel.
“Does anyone have any food that I can feed the Smees?” Hazel tiredly asked.
All of a sudden, the group could hear faint laughter coming from further ahead. They immediately took off running towards the laughter with no regard to the noise that they were making. Any possibility of caring about not scaring their friends had disappeared after the first 30 minutes of walking aimlessly.
Afraid of the sudden noise and not realizing it was just their friends, Max pulled you in closer to him in an effort to protect you. This ultimately led to your friends finding you in a position that did not have the essence of platonic friendship written all over it.
“Oh my hearts, Y/N, you are dating Max! I thought the twins were just making it up” squealed Pink. “Why didn’t you tell me?”
Hazel interrupts leaving no time for you to respond to Pink “You are actually dating this princess! You have to be kidding me Max! All she is going to do is hurt you when you don’t fit into her perfect fairytale standard!”
The VKs and HKs kept asking more and more questions while talking over each other, making it difficult to hear a single thing any of them were trying to say to you. Trying to answer anyone was impossible because the second either of you tried to speak there was someone interrupting you. Finally, Max had enough of his friend's stupidity.
“Enough” shouts Max. “Let me speak for a moment please” he says while standing up and lending you a hand to help you up as well. “We are not dating, but even if we were, it is none of your business. You are just proving my point of why I did not want to tell you about us being friends in the first place. You are all severely overreacting.”
You spot the opportunity to join in and add “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you all where I was going, especially you, Pink, but I just needed to get away from everything for a while. I never intended to run into Max, but I am really glad I did” you say, glancing at Max with a smile.
“What does a Perfect Princess have to escape from? Do you not have enough dresses or did your shoes get a little muddy today, princess” Hazel says, mocking you.
“Okay that is it! You cannot talk to her that way. You are one of my best friends, but she does not deserve this. Y/N is one of the kindest people I have ever met, and I am lucky to know her. We are leaving.” Max sternly responds to Hazel as he grabs your bag in one hand, flinging the bag over his shoulder, while also taking your hand in the other.
Before you could even process everything that had just transpired, Max was pulling you away from your friends leaving no time for them to respond, leaving the group in shock at his sudden outburst, especially Hazel.
After a couple of minutes of walking in silence, you can no longer take it.
“Max” you say. A couple of seconds pass.
“Max” you say a little louder hoping to grab his attention.
Max, too lost in his thoughts, does not respond.
Finally, you suddenly come to a halt, which causes Max to be pulled back towards you as he had never let go of your hand, not that you had minded.
“Hey Max, look at me for a second” you say as you gently take your hand from his grasp so that you can take his face in your hand to get him to look at you. “Are you okay? I know that was a lot back there.”
“No, of course I’m not okay,” he responds rather aggressively. Realizing his unwarranted anger towards you, he continues on but more gently “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have taken it out on you. It’s just that I knew everyone would react like this if they found out we are friends. I mean Hazel has been my best friend since we were kids and even she doesn’t think we should be talking.”
“What does it matter what everyone thinks about us? I know you are a good person Max, and just because your father is a villain does not make you one.” You say with certainty as you move the hand that was holding his face to hold to take his hand in yours.
“I don't know what I would do without you princess.” Max responds to you and for once the word princess doesn’t feel like an insult. “How you always know what to say to make me feel better is beyond me. Are you okay, though? I know Hazel hit a sore spot back there.”
“I’ll be okay as long as I have you Max.” You smile back at him.
With the way you are looking at him, Max suddenly gets a burst of hope. “Forgive me if I’m wrong but I think our feelings might be intertwined. I am tired of being afraid of what others think of me” he proclaims taking both of your hands in his.
“Max, are you saying what I think you’re saying” you question him in disbelief.
“I like you a lot Y/N, and I know that I am just a son of a villain but when I’m with you, I feel like I’m more than that. You make it feel like I can take on the world,” he passionately responds.
“Oh Max, I feel the same way when I'm with you,” and before you can question what you are about to do, you remove both of your hands from his, grabbing him by his jacket, pulling him towards you, passionately kissing him.
~~~~~~~~~At the same time, deeper in the Enchanted Forest~~~~~~~~~
“I think we really messed up,” Red says to the group. “We shouldn’t have come on that strong”
“I didn’t know that Max felt that way,” Hazel responds. “Maybe I was wrong about Y/N”.
“We need to go find our friends!” declares Pink. “But first let's figure out how to get back to Auradon Prep”.

Synopsis: Max deals with the teasing from the other VKs as you continue to steal from him.
Max Hatter Masterlist Here
It’s been two days since you had taken Max’s hat, which also happened to be the last time he’d seen you. He has searched high and low for you, but it was like you’ve disappeared from the face of Auradon. It was almost as if you could sense where he would be and avoid him entirely. Max claims it was only because he misses his hat, but he secretly wants to see you again as well.
“I still can’t believe that the princess stole your hat. Were you too distracted by getting a kiss from a princess, Max” Hazel mocks him for the hundredth time.
“First of all, she kissed my cheek which is different” Max responds, regretting having shared that part of your interaction with his friends. “I was caught off guard. You all are supposed to be helping me find her, not making fun of me.”
“No, we definitely came here to give you a bad time,” Felix says, enjoying watching his friend suffer. “Y/N could steal from me any day” he adds, winking at his friend.
“Watch it” Max aggressively responds.
“Yeah, watch it Felix. That’s no way to talk about Max’s girlfriend,” Hazel laughs while the Smee twins make kissy faces.
Before Max could tell them off, he catches a glimpse of his hat in the distance. He takes off towards it, leaving his friends confused as to what has just happened. What he doesn’t expect is to find you wearing it while making your way to lunch.
“Y/N!” Max calls out, gathering the attention of those nearby.
Hearing your name, you turn around, grinning when you see it’s Max who called out for you. “Hello to you too Max. Do you like my new hat? I think it really completes my look” you say sweetly.
“I think it’s time you gave me my hat back, princess,” Max says, walking closer to you.
“Oh, but I think it looks better on me. Don’t you think” you add mischievously.
“It definitely does, but that does not mean you get to keep it” He responds, taking the hat off your head and putting it on his.
Taken aback by Max’s compliment, and how close he was standing to you, your cheeks are set ablaze. “Well how about…” but before you can finish you are interrupted by Hazel Hook
“Look at that Max. You finally found your girlfriend” Hazel exclaims, causing Max to blush as well.
“She’s not my girlfriend” he stammers out.
Seeing Max distracted, you act quickly, slinking your hand into his right jacket pocket. Your fingers are quick to find the cool metal of a silver pocket watch. Knowing that this is your opportunity to stay one step ahead of Max, you take the watch and stuff it into your own pocket.
Trying to get you away from Hazel before she can say anything else to embarrass him, Max looks over at you and says “I’ll see you around Y/N.”
He begins walking over to Hazel, disappointed that he had to cut the conversation short and not having the opportunity to take something of yours. Max, unaware of what you have done, believes he no longer has an excuse to talk to you.
With the two of them gone, you take the chance to examine the pocket watch. It’s a nice silver watch with a top hat design on the outside as well as his initials engraved. “Well, he's definitely coming back for this” you smile to yourself, knowing that you have guaranteed another interaction with Max.
Once again, it takes Max hours to notice the theft that has occurred.
“You know,” For an HK, Y/N is pretty cool. We wouldn’t mind if you wanted to hang out with her more” Felix brings up as he and Max hang out in their shared dorm.
“Can you please let this go?” Max sighs. He likes you but doesn’t want to give his friends anymore ammunition to mess with him about.
“I’m just saying if you really don’t like her like that, Hazel or I would be more than happy to be with her. I won’t make a move on her if you like her, but I’d be quick before Hazel swoops her up if you do,” Felix laughs.
“Fine. I like her. You happy now” Max admits, preferring to give his friends this information, then to listen to them hit on you.
“Yup, very happy and completely unsurprised. You're not as subtle as you think you are Max” Felix replies grinning.
“It’s not like I have an excuse to talk to her anymore. I didn’t get the chance to take anything of hers cause Hazel interrupted us” Max sighs.
“You sure you still have your wallet this time” Felix questions trying to help his friend.
“Nope I checked my pocket as soon as I left” Max tells him, disappointed. “And my pocket watch is still in my other pocket” he continues, reaching into his right pocket to show Felix. Finding nothing, he exclaims “It’s gone! The pocket watch is gone!”
“Looks like you’ve got your in with Y/N. She must really like you or you’re really just an easy target” Felix smiles, happy for his friend.
“I’m finding her first thing in the morning” Max declares. “I don’t know what I’m going to do when I find her, but that’s tomorrow’s problem.”
The next morning, you wake up bright and early, making your way to the garden. While you had hidden before when you took Max’s hat, you wanted to see him again sooner rather than later. The garden is the perfect spot since it is so quiet and there is no one around to interrupt you. Taking advantage of the peace and quiet, you begin to read as you wait hopefully for Max’s arrival.
A half an hour later Max makes his way to the garden after having a premonition that is where he should start his search. Upon seeing you he exclaims “I think you took something of mine again, Princess.”
“I look at it more as borrowing your things” you grin at him while putting your book down and standing up.
“We have to stop meeting like this. What will the others think” Max grins back at you, making his way towards you.
“They’d think you’d just have a knack for losing things. Afterall would believe that a princess would steal from you” you answer back.
“I’m going to need my watch back now,” Max says, extending his hand out, awaiting his watch.
“And why would I do that?” You respond.
“Because you wouldn’t want to be responsible for making a poor VK late to class because he can’t tell time without his watch” he grins at you.
“I guess I wouldn’t want that” you smile and hand the watch back to Max.
“Oh, and one more thing, Princess,” Max says as he moves closer.
“What” you say, suddenly distracted by how close he is to you.
“I’m going to need this too,” Max says before pulling you in for a kiss.
When you both break away you can’t help but notice the blush on Max’s face and can only assume yours looks the same.
“I’ll see you around Y/N” Max winks at you and starts walking away.
You're caught off guard from the sudden change in behavior, when he suddenly calls out from the edge of the garden.
“Oh, by the way. Thank you for the book, Y/N” Max claims lifting up the book you had been reading before he got there. Max takes off running with your book, leaving alone in the garden before you can respond.
As you stand alone, you can’t help but wonder what you have gotten yourself into. All you know is that next time you see Max, you’re going to have to step up your game.

Find the Series Masterlist Here
Meeting Max Hatter in the Enchanted Forest has become a common occurrence for you. What started out as meetings maybe once or twice a week slowly turned into a part of your daily routine. Some days you and Max will read a new book, taking turns reading it out loud to each other. Other days, the two of you spend hours just talking about whatever comes to mind. Two months have passed since the first day you spent in the Enchanted Forest with Max, and the two of you are closer than ever.
Unfortunately for you, Max's and your frequent disappearances have not gone unnoticed by your friends, and they are beginning to question these changes.
“Hi Chloe, have you seen Y/N anywhere? I went to talk to her after our Magical History class and she was already gone. It was like she was out the door as soon as the clock struck four,” says Pink worriedly. It was so unlike you to disappear right after class. Pink and you normally would head back to your shared dorm room to talk about the events of the day and drop off your bags before going to meet up with the other HKs.
“Oh, hey Pink, no I haven’t seen her today. Now that you mention it, I don’t think I have seen her since our Virtue and Values class two days ago. I thought she had been with you,” Chloe replies. While she had noticed that you had not been around much lately, she figured if anything you had been secluded in your dorm room studying so Pink would have seen you.
“Do you think she is okay? She is rarely in our room, and the VKs have been making more mean comments to her lately. I know they have always bothered her, but she’s always been able to brush them off. Oh, I am such a bad friend for not noticing sooner,” Pink says rapidly as she begins to spiral with thoughts of why you could be so distant all of a sudden.
“Hey don’t say that, Pink! You are the most thoughtful person that I know. You can’t blame yourself for not noticing. What matters most is that we notice now. We should go find Y/N and check on her!” Chloe exclaims with determination. “Do you have any other ideas where she could be?”
“Hmm” Pink wonders aloud. “I know she loves to find a quiet place to read alone when she is sad or stressed out. But I have never been able to figure out where she goes to despite asking her like a million times.”
“Maybe Red or Luis would know. One of our friends has to have some idea where she could have gone.” Chole says.
“That’s a great idea! Let's go find them!” Pink exclaims as the two girls set off to find their friends.
Meanwhile, across campus the VKs are having a similar conversation about their friend Max.
“Where has Max run off to now! I swear that Hatter keeps disappearing constantly. What could possibly be so important that he keeps sneaking off for?” Hazel angrily shouts.
“Maybe he has a secret girlfriend he’s going to go see,” Felix shrugs. Suddenly he feels the sharp smack of Hazel’s hand to the back of his.
“That has got to be the stupidest thing I have ever heard. Max having a girlfriend is laughable enough, but why would he be hiding her from us? We are delightful!” Hazel responds as she paces back and forth in place.
“Maybe his girlfriend is an HK” Squeaky Smee says. “Or maybe she is a princess! Imagine Max with a princess as a girlfriend” Squirmy Smee adds on while laughing.
“There is no way that Max is dating an HK let alone a princess! Whatever he is hiding, we better find out what it is soon. You all know I do not like it when you keep secrets from me,” Hazel declares aggressively.
“But you keep secrets from us all the time. Just last week you stole a stash of tea cakes and didn’t tell any of us,” Felix tells Hazel.
“Yeah, well, it's fine when I do it. That does not mean that you all get to keep secrets. Let’s focus on the more important things at hand. If I was Max and did not want to be found, where would I go?” Hazel ponders out loud.
“Maybe his dorm room!”
“What about the tourney field”
“I’d go to the enchanted forest” The boys respond all at the same time.
“Stop talking all at once. I can barely make out what you all are trying to say. I did hear the enchanted forest though, so let's start there." After no one makes and effort to move Hazel states "Well, what are you all waiting for? Get up, let's go,” as she begins walking towards the enchanted forest.
When the VKs make it to the edge of the Enchanted Forest, they are surprised to see the four HKs having an animated discussion. Pink looks like she is on the verge of tears. Chloe and Red are trying their best to comfort a distressed Pink. All the while Luis is trying to help but is letting the girls do their thing to comfort her because he has no idea what to say.
“What are you all freaking out about?” Hazel interrupts. “Please do not tell me that your mothers have been captured again. While the last trip was fun, I’ve got a reputation to uphold which I can’t do if I am rescuing people all of the time.”
“Y/N is missing and we can’t find her anywhere!” Pink cries out.
“I wouldn’t worry about it. I am sure your perfect princess of a friend is fine. She’s probably visiting her castle or whatever you princess do in your free time,” Hazel says unphased
“No, she’s not okay! Y/N is probably sick and tired of all your comments about her. I don’t get why you all pick on her so much! I mean you're mostly nice to us now, and the three of us are also princesses. What is your problem with my friend!” Pink shouts, surprising everyone as no one had ever heard her yell like that before, not even Red.
“It’s nothing personal. I mean come on; she is the princess of all of Auradon. That takes princess-ing to a whole other level. You HKs proved yourselves when we saved Wonderland, but that does not mean that we are all buddy buddy with every HK in Auradon,” Hazel responds.
“Wait Y/N is dating Max?” Red says, confused as she overhears Squeaky.
“No of course not! Max doesn’t have a secret girlfriend. These fools just think he has one because he’s been disappearing lately without telling us why,” Hazel answers.
“Maybe that’s also where Y/N has been going! Oh, they would make such a cute couple!” Pink excitedly exclaims.
“No, they are not dating! I am sure there is a perfectly reasonable explanation. Why are we just standing here! Let’s go find them before you get any more ridiculous ideas.” Hazel says as she begins to walk off into the forest.
“Well, I guess the more of us there are to look for them, the better,” Red declares. “Let’s get going to find our friends,”
Together, the HKs and VKs set off into the enchanted forest to find their two missing friends.
Deep in the forest Max and you are completely unaware of the worry you have caused your friends. Together you both sit with your backs against the same tree where you first met with your head on Max’s shoulder while he reads to you. One might even mistake you for a couple if they saw you now, but unfortunately for everyone, both you and Max are just too afraid to admit your feelings to yourselves or to each other.
As Max finishes reading, he pauses at the end of the chapter and turns to you and goes “You know I actually made you something.” He reaches into his pocket, pulling out a necklace with a rose made from a sparkling red gem. “It sparkles just like you. I made it in the workshop. It should protect you against harmful magic,” he says earnestly.
“Oh Max, it's beautiful!” You say, looking at the necklace. “I don’t know what to say.”
“Consider it as a gift for giving me a second chance. I figured that with everything that has happened in the last couple of years with our friends and your family, having some extra protection can never hurt. It felt good being able to make something for a good reason” Max replies looking into your eyes.
“You’re a good guy Max. I mean it when I say you are nothing like your father. I am really glad I have gotten to know the real you” you say honestly.
“I am really glad I got to know the real you too. Not just the Perfect Princess of Auradon” Max smiles back at you.
Max helps you to put on the necklace as you both sit in a comfortable silence. For once you both feel as if you don’t have to hide who you truly are.
Little did you both know that the peaceful bubble you had created together was about to pop.

Synopsis: Deciding to get back at Max for leaving you in the gardens you decide to flirt with him in front of the other VKs.
Max Hatter Masterlist Here
After Max had kissed you the other day, all bets were off. You knew that you had to outdo him. I mean sure you could go up to him and ask him out on a date like a normal person, but where’s the fun in that.
When you saw Max and the other VKs eating lunch, inspiration struck. He had been so confident when it was just the two of you, but when Hazel had shown up he could barely string together a sentence. Being flirty in front of Max’s friends was the perfect plan. Mustering up all the charm that was woven into your Fitzherbert genes, you confidently strode over to them.
Sitting down on the empty spot next to Max, barely leaving any room in between you two, you ask “So how did you enjoy my book?”
Completely flustered and surprised by your sudden appearance, especially in front of his friends he responds “Uh.. yeah..I thought it was good.”
Spotting the book on the other side of him, you reach across Max taking it back from him instead of just asking for it back. He had been keeping the book on him at all times for when you found him, though he never imagined it going quiet like this.
Noticing her friend’s face deeply flush at your actions, Hazel can’t help but laugh. “So you must be the famous Princess we’ve been hearing about?”
“Oh I didn’t know you talked about me so much Max” you glance at him smirking, causing his face to turn a deeper shade of red. “Hopefully all good things I’m sure.”
“We didn’t expect an HK to be so good at stealing. Are you sure you’re Rapunzel’s daughter?” Felix questions jokingly.
“I definitely am. Most people forget my father used to be a thief though. I’ve picked up a few tricks from him” you say grinning.
“Max are you okay you seem like you are burning up” you ask with mock confusion, as you bring your hand up to touch his face.
“No, no I’m perfectly fine” Max struggles to get out and just as he is finally starting to regain his confidence, he feels his hat being plucked off his head.
“I really do like your hat, Max.” You say putting it on. “I’ve missed it since you took it back.” The rest of the VKs begin to snicker at you, messing with their friend.
“You should definitely join us more often Y/N” Hazel declares. “And if you ever get bored of Max I’m always here” she adds with a laugh.
“I’d love to join you all more!” You say excited. Laying your head on Max’s shoulder, while also wrapping your left arm around his right one, you glance up at him. “Would that be okay with you, Max”
“Yeah of course” He says a little too quickly.
Happy with the effect you have had on Max you decide that you should probably give him a break.
Getting up from your spot next to Max you tell the VKs “Well I better get going since I have class soon.” Receiving a chorus of disagreement from your new friends.
“I should probably give this back to you Max.” You say putting it back on him. You place a quick kiss to his cheek, quickly grab your book, and as you walk away you call out “I’ll see you around Hatter.” And for once you don’t take anything deciding the ball is now in Max’s court.
“Wow you’re even more down bad for her than I thought” Felix laughs at Max.
“What was I supposed to do? I didn’t expect her to show up and do all that” Max exclaims, frustrated at himself.
“I guess it’s true what they say about Flynn Ryder having been a flirt because that girl just got you good” Hazel joins in with the Smees making faces behind her.
“She didn’t even take anything this time,” Max sighs.
“Well if you really like Y/N I think it’s time you properly asked her out” Felix tells him seriously. “These games between you are fun and all, but at some point they’re going to get repetitive.
“Next time I see her I’ll ask her out” Max says determinedly.
Later that same night you find yourself once again in the same art classroom where Max found you the first time. After days of painting, you had finally realized what your brush was creating. In front of you was a portrait of Max grinning while wearing his hat.
Max makes his way to the art classroom hoping to find you. Seeing you inside, he decides to take a subtle approach, silently opening the door and making his way inside unnoticed by you. You’re so focused on your art that you don’t notice Max until he speaks up from beside you.
“So am I your muse now, princess” Max grins at you, causing you to jump not realizing he was there. Max's confidence has returned in full force now that it's just the two of you.
“And if I said you were? What would you say” you respond looking at him questioningly.
“I’d be flattered. But come on, you clearly are obsessed with me, always stealing my things “ he smirks at you.
“Says the one who’s here with no good reason. I didn’t take anything of yours this time” you smile at him.
“Who says I don’t have a good reason to be here, Princess?” Max responds. “Maybe I just wanted to see you and your pretty face.”
“I highly doubt that’s the only reason you’re here” you state.
“What if I said you stole my heart?” Max dramatically clutches his chest.
“I’d say you have to do a little better than that” you laugh at him.
“Hmm” Max ponders out loud. “If you agreed to go out with me I’m sure you could steal my hat occasionally”
“Now that sounds like a much better offer” you say, taking his hat off his head and putting it on yours.
“So I’ll take that as a yes, Princess” Max asks smiling.
“It’s a yes” your grin back at him.
“I’m going to need one thing for you though to make it fair.” Max explains
“And what is that?” you question.
“This” Max says, pulling you into a kiss while you wear his hat.
You’d never been so happy to have something stolen

idea!!! you should write a story (maybe as like an addition to 'the perfect princess' story) where reader is still ben's little sister. maybe there is like an family event or dinner and reader ask ben or mal to invite someone....and who they didnt expect was for it to be max hatter, a vk. But in the end they see themselves in both reader and max. something along the lines of that!! I just thought it was a super cute idea 😭
Meeting the Family
A/N- I wrote this fic with the Perfect Princess series in mind, but it can also be read as a standalone. I hope it's similar to what the requester wanted, but I also could not imagine Ben judging Max at all due to his heritage after everything that happened with Mal. Also Tangled Thieves Pt 4 should be out in a day or two.
Pairing: Max Hatter x Ben's Sister! Reader
Words: 1.9k
Synopsis: In celebration of Ben and Mal's return, your boyfriend Max is introduced to your family for the first time.
Max Hatter Masterlist Here
Max Hatter is sitting in the courtyard talking with the VKs when all of a sudden, his line of sight is covered.
“Guess who” he hears a voice ask, which sounds awfully familiar to his girlfriend. The other VKs ignore this act, having gotten used to these displays of affection over the past few months.
“Hmm” Max hums back. “Could it possibly be my beautiful girlfriend?” He asks, already knowing the answer.
Removing your hands from Max’s face, you reveal yourself.
“Hi there, Max” you say, beaming at him.
“Hello, Princess” He responds while getting up to give you a kiss. What once had been an insult from Max, was now his favorite pet name for you, after he had made sure you were okay with it of course.
“You look extra happy today. Did something happen” Max asks, curious about your day.
“Ben and Mal are finally back from their travels! My family is hosting a welcome back dinner tomorrow and they said I can bring you! This means you can finally meet them all” you exclaim excitedly.
Max had still not met your family since you wanted to wait for Ben and Mal to return home. You had not seen your brother in almost 2 years as he had been travelling to find more allies for Auradon.
“Have you told them about me yet? More importantly, who my father is,” Max asks, concerned about your family reactions.
“No, I thought it was better to tell them in person. All they know is that I have a wonderful boyfriend who they are very excited to meet” you say gently, taking Max’s hand in yours.
“And that wonderful boyfriend is going to have to dress up for the dinner” you quickly add hoping Max does not notice.
Hazel notices this addition right away, having been listening in on your conversation after she’d grown bored of whatever story Felix was telling.
“Please tell me Max is going to be forced to wear some princely outfit,” Hazel laughs.
“Maybe you should get him a hat with a little crown embroidered on it” Felix joins in.
“Please tell me I don’t actually have to wear any of that” Max quietly asks you, trying to ignore his friends’ amusement at the situation.
“No, I was just going to try to get you to wear the leather jacket that I love so much. There’s not really a dress code, but any excuse to see you in the jacket is a good one” you respond bashfully, no longer wanting to look him in the eye.
“You could have just asked, Princess” Max smiles, fully enjoying your reaction, before placing a kiss on the top of your head.
“I know. But I also knew you would enjoy me asking too much, just like you are now. Can’t have your head getting too big for your hat” you laugh.
“If it did, you would just steal my hat” Max grins.
Later that night at Beast Castle, Mal and Ben have finally returned home from two years of trying to form alliances with far away kingdoms. Originally the trip was only supposed to take at most a year, but some alliances were harder to form than others making the extension necessary.
“Wow it’s good to be home,” Ben sighs in relief.
“You can say that again. At least we convinced Arendelle to align with us. Can’t say I blame them for being more cautious after the last time they tried to make allies” Mal replies, exhausted from the trip.
“I cannot wait to sleep in our own bed again and to see everyone tomorrow. My sister even wrote that she has a boyfriend. Can you believe that, little Y/N has a boyfriend,” Ben says, starting to get worked up, feeling bad he hasn’t seen you in so long.
“Woah slow down there, Benny Boy. Let’s not start over thinking,” Mal says, trying to calm her husband. “Y/N understands why you’ve been gone so long. Let’s get some rest so you can be wide awake when you see her tomorrow. I’m sure she doesn’t want a zombie for a brother.”
“You’re right. I want to make sure I have enough energy for tomorrow. Let’s get some sleep” Ben yawns out.
After barely getting any sleep and your roommate Pink having to physically stop you from leaving to see your brother, it is finally time to head to Beast Castle. You leave your room practically running down the corridors to meet Max in front of your father’s statue. When you arrive at the statue, you are disappointed that he is nowhere to be seen.
“Boo” Max says while grasping your shoulders causing you to gasp in surprise.
“Max, you’re here” you exclaim, pulling him into a hug. Normally you would give Max a bad time for scaring you, but you are too excited to pretend to be upset. “And you’re wearing the jacket!”
“Of course, I am. Couldn’t disappoint my favorite girl in all of Auradon” He grins at you.
“Normally I’d question who your favorite girl outside of Auradon is, but the limo is here” you say as you grab Max’s hand, tugging him towards the limo.
“Limo?” Max questions.
“Yes, limo” you say, reaching the vehicle with a guard opening the door for you both. “Did you forget your dating royalty?” You wink at him.
“No, but I just didn’t expect all of this” Max responds in disbelief. He had never been in a limo before. Being the son of Maddox Hatter didn’t really come with the perk of fancy transportation.
“I’m sorry I didn’t tell you earlier. The limo didn’t cross my mind as it's just how I normally get home” you tell him.
“Don’t worry about it, princess. We better get inside so you can see your brother” Max reassures you.
As both climb in and get comfortable in the limo you can’t help but glance over at Max. “You know what the best part about riding in a limo is” you say.
“What is it?” Max responds.
“Chocolate” you tell him with a smile, as you open the candy compartment.
After a short ride, and multiple chocolate bars, you and Max had finally reached Beast Castle. Suddenly doubt starts to creep into your mind as you get out of the limo. What if Ben had changed in the two years since you had seen him and wasn’t excited to see you?
“Hey Y/N, are you okay?” Max asks, noticing your worried expression.
“It's just been so long since I’ve seen Ben. What if we don’t get along anymore” you tell him sadly.
“Trust me that is not going to be the case. From what you’ve told me about your brother, I’m sure he’s just excited to see you as you are him,” Max reassures you.
“I don’t know what I’d do with you out” you confess. “Are you ready?” You ask him, holding out your hand to hold his.
“As ready as I’ll ever be” Max takes your hand as you both walk up towards the castle entrance.
As the doors open to the castle, you can see Ben and Mal talking to your parents a few feet away. Ben, hearing the doors open, notices you immediately and takes off running towards you.
“Y/N” Ben shouts, pulling you into a tight hug, while Max stands next to the two of you, taken aback by the King of Auradon’s actions.
“Ben” you respond with the same enthusiasm. “I can’t believe you're finally home!”
“I can’t believe how much you’ve grown since I left,” Ben exclaims. Noticing your boyfriend, Ben turns his attention to Max. “And you must be Y/N’s boyfriend,” Ben adds, looking at Max.
“Yup, this is my boyfriend Max Hatter” you introduce Max to Ben. If Ben is at all surprised by Max’s last name, he doesn’t show it.
“Nice to meet you Max” Ben tells him before pulling him into a hug, completely surprising Max.
“It’s nice to meet you too, Ben. Your sister talks about you all the time,” Max says as Ben pulls away.
“I’m sure only good things are right,” Ben responds, glancing over at you.
“Only the best. No embarrassing stories whatsoever, especially ones about how your pjs are covered in little crowns” you grin back.
“Did you say Hatter?” Your father interrupts.
“Yes, Hatter. But Max is nothing like his father.” You sternly tell him as you move closer to Max, holding his hand.
“I promise you, I am nothing like my father, and I have no intention of harming your daughter,” Max confesses to him.
“We’ve already been through this once, dear. Let’s keep an open mind,” Belle calmly tells her husband.
“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have judged you so quickly. I’m just protective of my little girl,” Adam apologizes to Max, wanting to stay on his family’s good side.
“It’s okay, sir. I know my last name causes people to worry,” Max replies gracefully, not wanting to leave a negative impression.
“Well, it will be good to have another VK in the mix. These guys tend to get a little too sappy sometimes,” Mal says to Max, breaking the tension.
“Hey we do not” you and Ben exclaim in unison.
“Oh, you totally do,” Mal says, walking over to pull you into a hug.
“I think I’ve got to agree with Mal on this one. You definitely get all sappy,” Max laughs.
“Do you want to talk about sappy? Cause I can bring up how you acted on our first date” you threaten.
“And I suddenly, a hundred percent support my beautiful girlfriend,” Max says, changing his tune.
“Well, it’s very nice to meet you Max. I hope you are up for dinner and some games tonight. Prepare yourselves for these four to get very competitive. Last time we played charades, Mal almost turned into a dragon, and I swear I heard these three roar multiple times” Belle warns him with a smile.
Max, surprised by the idea of you acting beastly, responds “Roar? I guess I’ll try to prepare myself.”
“It wasn’t that bad!” You exclaim.
“Well why don’t we continue this discussion over food” your mother suggests.
“That sounds good to me, I’m starving,” your father responds.
As you follow your parents, you grab a hold of Max’s hands and whisper “See, I told you they’d like you. And sorry about my dad, he gets a little protective.”
“Don’t worry about it, princess. You're worth it,” he grins back at you.
Unbeknownst to you, Mal and Ben caught this interaction between you and Max.
“You know they remind me a lot of us,” Ben says, smiling at his wife.
“They really do. I think your family must have a type. You all love finding the good in everyone,” Mal smiles back at him.
“Can’t say I disagree when it brought me to you” Ben tells her.
“Well Benny Boo, we can’t keep your family waiting,” Mal says, taking Ben’s hand as they set off to join the rest of you.
It looks like you and Max had nothing to worry about after all.

A/N- I can't believe this is the final part of the series. Thank you all so much for the support you have shown my first series.

Keep an eye out for future fics coming out soon because I have a couple of ideas and requests I am excited to write!

Find the Series Masterlist Here
After your first kiss with Max Hatter, you both walk back to Auradon Prep hand in hand, still giddy from the kiss you shared and also temporarily able to forget the comments from your friends.
“So how do you think your parents are going to react to you dating the son of Maddox Hatter? I’m sure they’re going to be thrilled,” Max smirks at you.
“Please, after everything with Mal and Ben, I’m sure they won’t even be phased. Clearly, my brother and I have the same type. Villain kids with purple hair and three letter names that start with the letter M” you wink at him.
“So, are you saying that you’re only with me because of my purple hair and my name? That’s heartless Y/N. You wound me” he claims while dramatically clutching his chest with the hand not currently holding yours.
“Hey, I've got to break that princess stereotype somehow. Can’t let you think I’m 100% a goody two shoes” you say while laughing. Remembering your friends you ask Max more solemnly, “Do you think that our friends will come around to us?”
After letting out a soft sigh he responds “They’ll have to. I’m not going to stop being with you just because of my friends' prejudices. They came around to the other HKs, and they’ll come around to you too, hopefully”.
“I hope so. I’m sure it was a bit of a shock. I think my friends will come around to you too, if they already haven't. If anything, Pink will be more upset with me about not telling her about us even being friends than about me actually dating you.” You tell him.
Eventually you and Max make it back to Auradon Prep. Curfew is only a few minutes away and while you would love to spend all night talking to Max, you don't want to risk causing any more trouble, after all you are still an HK at heart.
“Well princess, I think this is where we part ways. Oh, parting is such sweet sorrow,” Max dramatically proclaims.
“Look at that. Have you been reading Shakespeare without me Max” you grin.
“What can I say, your love of books may have rubbed off on me” he grins back. “Goodnight, Y/N” he says while leaning down to kiss the back of your hand that was holding his before he lets it go and begins to move away from you.
“How chivalrous of you Max” you say before quickly reaching out and pulling him back towards you to give him a soft kiss. “But I’m dating a VK, not a prince, so you’re gonna have to do better than a kiss on my hand” you smirk at him.
“Oh well guess I have to live up to the VK name then” Max responds before pulling you back in to kiss you again.
“See that was much better. Good night, Max” you say as you start walking towards your dorm.
“Good night, Y/N” Max says back as he watches you walk away.
The VKs and HKs make it back to Auradon Prep a couple of minutes behind you and Max. They spent the entire walk back in silence, not wanting to admit how awful they felt about what they had done. Chloe is the first one to break the silence and to say what everyone is thinking.
“We are going to have to figure out a way to make it up to our friends,” declares Chloe.
“And how would you suggest we do that” responds Hazel, lacking her normal bite. Upsetting Max earlier had really shaken her up.
“Well Pink and Felix share a dorm with Y/N and Max so we should probably start there. The two of you will apologize to them tonight and assess the situation” Chloe starts. “Tomorrow we can regroup and all apologize to them all together. Hazel, you should also apologize to Y/N without Max around to show them you really mean it. I bet that would make them both happy” she finishes.
“You think so,” Hazel asks, unsure of the idea about having to apologize to you without Max around.
“Yes. Nothing works better than a heartfelt apology that doesn’t feel performative. If you talk to her in private and you mean it, I’m sure it can’t hurt anything. But you have to actually mean it, Hazel” Chloe emphasizes. "You can’t just say a quick sorry and expect everything to be better.”
“I’ll try. Apologizing isn’t really in a pirate's nature, but I’ll do my best.” Hazel responds.
“We have to make sure that our friends can forgive us!” Pink exclaims. “I just hope Y/N can forgive me. I don’t know what I’d do if I lost my best friend.”
“She’ll forgive you, Pink, don’t worry” Red comforts her sister.
“You two have been friends for years. You are practically family and a familia always sticks together.” Luis adds on.
“I don’t know if I can get Max to talk but I’ll try. He’s never been the most talkative guy when he’s upset,” Felix says.
“Well now that we’ve got a plan let’s get back to our rooms before curfew kicks in. We can all meet back up together at lunch and apologize to them together. We just have to hope that this plan works.” Chloe says.
A chorus of agreements come from the HKs and VKs before everyone sets off to their own rooms.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~In Y/N and Pink’s Room ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You lay flopped on your bed in disbelief. You are actually dating Max Hatter and have now kissed him multiple times. If you went back to this morning and told your past self about this, she would 100% think this is a lie. Today would have been perfect if it wasn’t for Hazel’s comments and your friends' reactions. At the same time, you can’t help but wonder if Max would have ever told you if they all hadn’t shown up. You just hope that Hazel and everyone can accept you and Max together because you don't want to see Max upset.
Suddenly Pink barges into the room causing you to sit up abruptly. Seeing you on your bed, Pink runs over to you and pulls you into a tight hug.
“Oh Y/N, I am so sorry for today. Please don’t be mad at me. I can’t lose you, you're my best friend!” Pink professes.
“Pink you’re not gonna lose me. It’s okay. We are still friends” you assure her tightly hugging her back. After knowing Pink for so many years, you know she would never do anything to intentionally hurt you.
“I shouldn’t have assumed you were dating Max. I just got so excited since you would be so good together. But I’m also happy you aren’t together.” Realizing what she just said she quickly rephrases her previous statement. “Oh hearts that came out wrong. I mean I support you in whatever you want and just because I think you would be cute together doesn’t mean you have to agree”
“Pink, it’s okay. I totally understand. I should have told you that I was friends with Max in the first place instead of hiding it” you reassure her. “I actually have something I should probably tell you” you say letting go of Pink so you can look at her. “I’m actually dating Max now.”
Pink’s eyes go wide as the realization hits her. “You are! That is so exciting! But I thought he said you were just friends when we all showed up,” Pink says, now confused.
“He wasn’t lying, we weren’t together when you all showed up. After he pulled me away, we got to talking more about us and he confessed to me. I just wish everyone was as accepting as you Pink” you finish sadly.
“Oh that’s wonderful! I am so happy for you Y/N and I'm sure everyone will come around. Hazel felt really bad after you both left and I think she wants to apologize to you, and so does everyone else.” Pink says.
“That would be wonderful! I’d love to put everything behind us for Max. Maybe we could even be friends” you say, full of hope. “Hopefully tomorrow will be an even better day!”
“Well let’s go to sleep so we can find out” exclaims Pink as she hops off from your bed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Meanwhile in Max and Felix’s dorm room~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Max is pacing back and forth in the room as he gets ready to go to bed. He can’t believe that he kissed you let alone that you would want to date him. He thought he was lucky just being your friend and now he gets to be your boyfriend.
Felix enters the room, seeing Max and lets out a sigh.
“I’m sorry about everything today man. I had no idea you’d actually be out there with Y/N” Felix says.
“What does it matter if I was with Y/N or not? Is it that surprising that she would want to hang out with me” Max mutters back, not even looking at Felix.
“No, that's not what I meant. I just mean two months ago you were joining us in giving the princess a bad time and now you are friends with her. Not that there is anything wrong with that. It just caught all of us off guard, especially Hazel” Felix responds.
“Yeah, well you all are going to have to get over it. I can’t have you all treating my girlfriend like that.” Max says, finally glancing over to Felix.
“Girlfriend? I thought you said you weren’t…never mind. I’m happy for you,” Felix tells Max. “The others will come around, don’t worry. Hazel already feels bad for how she reacted.”
“Yeah, well, I’m not the one Hazel needs to apologize to. She needs to apologize to Y/N,” Max says, fully turning to face Felix.
“She will. Just give her some time. You know she’s never been great at apologizing. Everything will work out,” Felix reassures him.
“Well, I hope it does,” Max says, turning away from Felix, effectively ending the conversation and climbing into his bed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The next morning, in the courtyard~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pink and Y/N are walking to breakfast when they spot Hazel and the Smees walking towards them. Hazel, having been warned by Felix earlier that you were actually dating Max, knew she had to apologize sooner rather than later.
“I’m sorry,” Hazel says rather bluntly.
“Yeah, we are very sorry” add the Smee twins in unison.
“Sorry for what” you respond with arms crossed, untrusting of their motives even though you want to be able to put the past aside.
“For what I said yesterday and everything before that. I judged you too soon and I shouldn’t have done that. Clearly you’re more than a perfect princess if Max is interested in you.” Hazels says honestly.
“Thank you, that's really nice to hear. I hope we can be friends for Max’s sake. I really do like him, and I want you to know that I’m not going to hurt” you tell her sincerely knowing that it took a lot for Hazel to admit that.
“You better not or you’ll get the hook” Hazel says miming slicing your neck with her hook and you honestly can’t tell if she is joking or not. From what you know about Hazel, you’re going to assume she is not.
“I won’t. I did always think your hook was cool. Much cooler than your brother Harry’s” you say while laughing at the last part.
“You clearly have great taste then.” Hazel responds while laughing.
“Truce” you say as you reach your hand out to shake her hand.
“Truce” Hazel responds while shaking your hand.
“Now that’s settled, let’s talk about something more important. Breakfast! I’m starving! Let’s go” you exclaim.
“Now that’s the best idea I’ve ever heard from an HK” Hazel laughs, linking her arm with yours.
“Food!” the Smees exclaim in unison.
The two of you set off with Pink and the Smees in tow.
By the time lunch had hit, you and Hazel had fully put the past aside, becoming fast friends and having spent most of the morning together. Neither of you had any idea that you actually shared multiple classes together. Sadly, you still had not seen Max all day, so you were hoping you’d finally get to see him at lunch.
Spotting Max near the picnic tables, you run toward him and call out “Max!” Once you reach him, you quickly embrace him, pressing a kiss to his cheek, not caring about who witnessed this act of affection. “Hi,” you greet excitedly.
“Hello to you too, Y/N” Max replies, embracing you back with a tint of pink on his cheeks due to the kiss on the cheek you gave him.
“Are you blushing Max? I didn’t know I had such an effect on you” you smirk at him as you let go of the embrace.
“Of course, I’m not” he denies while his cheeks flush even more. “Were you just with Hazel?” Max deflects trying to switch the topic after noticing Hazel walking over to join the rest of the VKs and AKs who were sitting at a nearby table, telling them about the events of this morning.
“Yeah, I was! She apologized this morning and we realized we actually have a lot in common” you excitedly tell him.
“That’s great!” Max responds matching your enthusiasm. “I didn’t think she would.”
“She was genuinely sorry for what she had done. Enough of that though. Let’s go join our friends” you exclaim, grabbing Max’s hand, pulling him along with you over to the lunch table.
“Y/N, Max, we are so sorry for how yesterday” Red tells you both having been the first to notice you to make your way to the table.
A chorus of agreement follows from the rest of your friends.
“It’s okay. We know you were just worried and trying to protect us” you say gently with a smile.
“But don’t let it happen again” Max adds more sternly.
“Don’t worry, it won’t happen again. Unless she hurts you, of course,” Hazel says.
“Or he hurts her,” Luis says, looking over at Hazel.
“Don’t get me started again on who would win a fight between us Luis. We both know how that would go,” Hazel responds to him.
“We all know Hazel will win,” Chloe says while laughing.
“Hey, we don’t know that” Luis defends himself.
“Oh, we totally know she would win” you laugh as you and Max sit down joining your friends.
“See they get it,” Hazel says triumphantly.
As the conversation continues on you look over at Max and whisper “I’m really glad this worked out.”
“Me too,” Max responds. “I’m so lucky.”
“Nope. I’m definitely the lucky one here” you argue back.
“I am definitely the one in the right here, Princess” Max says and before you can respond, he pulls you in for a kiss ignoring the sounds of disgust coming from the Smee twins and the excited gasp from Pink.
“That seems like an unfair way to win an argument” you say, smiling at Max.
“Like you said last night, you’re dating a VK. Guess you’re just going to have to get used to it,” Max smirks at you.
“Guess I will” you respond before pulling Max in for another kiss.
Maybe the world would one day see you both as more than just extensions of your parents but as long as you had Max, you knew you were going to be fine.
