Kiss the Girl
Prompt: Could I request an imagine with Carlos from Disneys descendants where he uses one of Mel's love potions to make you fall for him since you're from Auradon and he doesn't think you'll go for someone like him
Note: Aaaaaaaah that’s really cute. I loooove Carlos and I’ve really been in a Descendants mood since Ways to be Wicked and What’s My Name came out.
Warnings: None??

“I need a favor.” Carlos approached Mal with a fair amount of uncertainty. At this point, he wasn’t even sure he wanted to go through with his ridiculous notion anymore. Sure, he wanted to date you, but using a love potion…he wasn’t so sure. Maybe this was a bad idea.
“With what? Your love life?” Mal didn’t even bother looking up from her book.
“How did you know?”
“Evie told me. All right, who is it? Spill.”
“(Y/N).”
“Ariel and Eric’s kid,” Mal stated in disbelief and looked up at her friend. Carlos smiled sheepishly. “Well, I see why you’re here.”
“She’d never go for a guy like me. I’m just a VK.”
“You’re right. You’re just a VK. A VK that’s about to get the girl.”

Carlos found you sitting at your favorite part of the courtyard: in front of the fountain. You often sat here with your friends, but today you were there alone, watching the water. Carlos cleared his throat, took a breath, and then sat down beside you.
“Hey, (Y/N),”
“Oh, hey Carlos!” You turned around to face him. His heart raced. Practicing this in his head and in front of his mirror was entirely different than actually sitting in front of you. He felt like Evie’s mom about to offer Snow White a poisoned apple. And while this wouldn’t send you into a death sleep, it was still magic.
Maybe he shouldn’t go through with this. Mal glared at him from behind a nearby tree. Right. He shouldn’t waste magic either. He had come this far, he may as well go all the way.
“So, Jay and I were baking cookies, and we were wondering if you wanted some?”
“What kind of cookies?”
“Chocolate chip.” He held up the plastic baggie.
“Thanks, Carlos, that’s really sweet of you.” You accepted a cookie and took a bite. It was warm and chewy and the chocolate just about melted in your mouth.
“H-how are they?”
“I think…I think this is the best cookie I’ve ever had.” You couldn’t explain the feeling that washed over you. It was a sort of euphoria. Your vision was fuzzy, your hearing was muffled, and for a few long moments, all you could think about was Carlos.
When had he gotten so cute? Had he always been this attractive? No, you would have noticed.
Suddenly, your senses returned to you, and Carlos was still there, a mix of concern and guilt strewn across his handsome features.
“What’s wrong Carlos?”
“Are…are you okay?”
“I feel…Great. I don’t think I’ve ever felt this good in my entire life. Carlos, have you always been this handsome?”
“Um…yes?” He hesitated, hastily stuffing the rest of the cookies back into his bag. If one bite had done this to you, there was no telling what the rest of them would do. You slipped your hand into his, intertwining your fingers. “So do you want to go see a movie or something?”
“I’d love to.”

The love spell lasted about a week. When you finally woke up from it, your feelings for Carlos had definitely dulled a little. You weren’t obsessed with him anymore. But, you had always harbored a crush on him, he had just been too timid to ask you out because…well, you weren’t sure why. He had relied on magic when he could have done it without the aid.
You approached him at lunch. He was sitting with Jay, Mal, Evie, and Ben.
“Carlos, we need to talk.” You offered a small smile. He nodded, folding up his lunch box before getting up to follow you. Once you were out of sight of the others, you hugged him, taking him by surprise. Hesitantly, his arms wrapped around you.
“What’s this about?”
“I know you spelled me.” When the words came out, you only hugged him tighter. Carlos’ heart raced. This was it. It was over, then. You wouldn’t want him anymore. “But I liked you before the love potion, and I still like you now.”
“You…did. You do.” He paused. “This is news to me. So…you still want to go out, then?”
“Yes, Carlos, I still want to go out with you.” You pulled away to look at him. Even without the love potion filtering your sight, he was still just as handsome as you remembered. Your eyes flicked down to his lips. You wondered if they were as soft as they looked.
They were.
