°❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:・
Carlos was everything you had been warned about.
A Villain Kid.
The son of Cruella De Vil.
Trouble wrapped up in a leather jacket.
So naturally...
You couldn't stand him.
"You seriously can't go five minutes without breaking a rule?" you snapped after watching him skate through the castle hallway.
Carlos rolled his eyes.
"I wasn't breaking a rule."
"You literally skated past three 'No Skateboarding' signs."
"Sounds like a design flaw."
"It's called reading."
"It's called having fun."
"You wouldn't know fun if it hit you in the face."
"And you'd probably write it a detention slip."
You shoved past him.
"Glad we understand each other."
"Oh, crystal clear."
It became a routine.
If you entered a room...
Carlos found another exit.
If Carlos walked into class...
You sighed dramatically.
Jay swore you argued more than an old married couple.
Neither of you appreciated the comment.
One rainy afternoon, Fairy Godmother asked several students to help organize one of the old storage rooms beneath the castle.
Unfortunately...
You and Carlos were assigned together.
"No."
Fairy Godmother smiled kindly.
"Yes."
"There has to be someone else."
"There isn't."
Carlos groaned.
"This is punishment."
"It is community service."
"Same thing."
An hour later...
Boxes were stacked.
Shelves dusted.
Neither of you had spoken except to argue over where everything belonged.
Then—
CLUNK.
The heavy wooden door slammed shut.
You both froze.
Carlos tried the handle.
Locked.
"...Seriously?"
You crossed your arms.
"Great."
He knocked.
Nothing.
"You've got to be kidding me."
You slid down against the wall with an annoyed sigh.
"This is your fault somehow."
"My fault?"
"I don't know how yet."
After nearly twenty minutes...
The silence became unbearable.
Carlos wandered around the room before pulling an old photo album from a shelf.
"Huh."
"What?"
He flipped it open.
"These are pictures from when Auradon was first built."
Despite yourself...
You looked.
The pages were faded, corners curled with age.
Kings.
Queens.
Students.
Families.
Carlos stared at them longer than you expected.
"They all look..."
"What?"
"...Happy."
His voice was so quiet you almost missed it.
You blinked.
"You've never...?"
He laughed once.
"No."
Not a sarcastic laugh.
A sad one.
"Happy wasn't really a thing on the Isle."
The room felt strangely smaller.
"My mom didn't exactly do family game nights."
You didn't answer.
Because suddenly...
Carlos didn't look dangerous.
He looked...
Lonely.
"So..." you asked carefully.
"...What's it actually like?"
He hesitated.
"You really want to know?"
You nodded.
Carlos leaned back against a stack of boxes.
"You learn pretty quickly that trusting people gets you laughed at."
His fingers traced the edge of the photo album.
"If someone is nice, it's because they want something."
"And if they don't..."
"They're usually trying to survive."
You stared at him.
Nobody had ever explained the Isle like that.
At Auradon...
You'd only heard words like evil.
Never survival.
"I'm sorry."
Carlos looked up.
"For what?"
"I think..." You sighed.
"I decided who you were before I ever met you."
A tiny smile appeared.
"You weren't exactly friendly either."
"I know."
"You called me a walking detention."
"You were being annoying."
"I was."
"And I threw your notebook into the fountain."
"...Yeah."
"Sorry."
"You should be."
Both of you laughed.
The first real laugh either of you had shared.
Hours later, the door finally swung open.
Ben stood there looking relieved.
"There you two are!"
You stood quickly.
"We're fine."
Carlos nodded.
"Yeah."
As everyone walked away...
He stayed beside you.
Not too close.
Not too far.
"So..."
"So?"
"Friends?"
You smiled.
"I think we can try."
His grin was brighter than you'd ever seen.
"I'd like that."
As you walked back toward the castle together, you caught yourself laughing at one of his terrible jokes.
You stopped for half a second.
Because somewhere between the arguments...
The eye rolls...
The locked room...
And seeing the boy behind the villain's last name...
Something had changed.
You weren't looking at Carlos De Vil anymore.
You were just looking at Carlos.
And somehow...
That felt completely different.
