Chapter 1: "Heartbreaks And Happiness"

Evie is brushing her hair with excitement as her purple haired friend, Still in bed, is aggravated at her bestie's early morning routine.

"Evie, why are you up so early? Even 6:00 am is too early for you!" Mal says as she sits up.

"Well, I actually got up at 5:00 so I had time to pick out my outfit. Also, I have to be up very early if I have a special event coming up..." Evie attempts to remind her friend.

"Crap, is it your birthday?" Mal asks still groggy but alert.

"No! No, it's not my birthday. Don't worry." Evie calms her friend. "It's me and Doug's date!"

"Okay. But could you not make so much ruckus? I mean, how hard is it to brush your hair peacefully?" Mal asks more groggy.

"First, I'll try. Second, I'm in a rush."

"It's SIX A.M."

Evie puts down her brush and places it onto her vanity, then grabs a towel along with her outfit.

"It's never too early to get ready. " She opens the bathroom door and steps inside. "Plus I haven't even done my makeup yet."

Evie closes the door behind her and turns the shower on waiting for it to get warm, fully aware the loud water would bother her sleepy friend. Mal huffed and threw herself on her bed, covering her face with her pillow. Even Evie through the loud shower running could hear her moans.

Which made her kinda smile.

~Takes place in the garden after school~

Evie's POV:

I walk through the garden where Doug is sitting. But, he doesn't look happy.

I walk up to him with confidence. As it was one of the Good Things my mother taught me. "Hey!" I greet.

"Hey." He says, but with less enthusiasm as he always says.

"Are you okay?" I ask, concerned. He sits me down with a worried look.

"I've been thinking about us."

"What? Is everything okay?"

"I don't know." He says.

"What's wrong? Did I do something wrong?" I ask, more concerned than before.

"No! You didn't do anything wrong. It's just... I don't know about us anymore."

"What...?" I feel my eyes starting to water. "I thought we were okay. I thought you loved me."

"I do!" His brows furrow. "Did."

"How long have you lost feelings for me?"

"Since yesterday. I'm sorry." He says sadly.

"Oh. It's okay." I lie.

"Is it okay to just be friends?" He asks hopeful that I will understand. And I do. But it is heartbreaking.

"Yeah. Of course." I get up quickly wipe my tears so he doesn't see. Just because I feel bad doesn't mean he has to feel worse than he does now. "Bye." I say, waving to him, trying to hide the tears streaming down my face. Once I get to the cafeteria, I run to my room.

Jay's POV:

I was having my usual lunch with Carlos, when Mal finally came and sat down with us. She pretty early than usual. Only thirty minutes. "Where's Evie?" I asked while chomping on chocolate chip waffle.

"She's on a date with Doug." Mal said as she put her lunch down.

Just as I try to take another bite of my waffle, all of the sudden I see a blurry Evie run from the garden, dashing to her dorm.

At least I think it was her. She was running really fast, which concerned all of us. Especially me.

"Evie?!" Mal shouted.

"What happened?" Carlos asked.

"I don't know. Maybe I should go after h-"

I didn't hear the rest since I was already booking it to their dorm.

Evie's POV:

I can feel tears streaming down my face even more now. I quickly run into my room and lock the door. I lay down and as soon as my face hits the pillow on what I'm pretty sure was my bed, it's really blurry through tears, more and more starts to flow out of me.

Although literally seconds later I hear knocking on the door. "Evie, it's me." I can kinda make out who it is, but I still don't know. "Can you open the door?" It sounds more like Jay, now. But I still don't want him coming in. I sniffle, then finally clear my throat enough to talk.

"Not now." I say loudly, trying to get it through the door. "I'm studying." It was too late as I heard him picking the lock. I sighed and laid my head back down on my pillow.

No One's POV:

Jay opens the door slowly, then closes the door behind him. Evie, still laying on her bed, tried to hide her tears.

"Evie, are you okay?" Jay asked, concerned.

"Yeah." Evie said. Jay got more concerned when she sniffled.

"You sure? Because I saw you run from the cafeteria." The son of Jafar said as he sat down on the edge of her bed. "Come on. What wrong, eve?" She slowly gets up wiping her tears. Which concerns Jay more. She sits beside him and after a moment, decides to speak.

"D-Doug... Broke up with me." She stutters. Jay sits in shock for a moment. He doesn't know how to react to that kinda stuff. He felt terrible but, he wasn't prepared for this. Usually in the Isle, she was the one breaking hearts. He never thought that she would ever be the one with the broken heart.

All he could think about was, how could Doug break her heart? How do people deal with this? Do they pat them on the back? Should I say something? He didn't know what to do. Then he remembered he saw Evie hug Jane when she was upset about... he never really found out. Girl stuff, he guessed.

So he just took a deep breath, and then wrapped his arms around her. Awkwardly I might add. She kinda giggled at the way he tried his best to make her feel better, not knowing how to at all. She actually thought it was kind of cute how he didn't know how to show, or react to emotions.

She hugged back tightly, letting her head rest on his shoulder, assuring him he's doing the right thing. They embrace each other for little a bit longer because she likes how hugging him makes her feel safe, and he likes it because she always feels nice and warm. She breaks away and smiles reassuring him that she feels better now. "Thanks, Jay." Evie says, giving him one last hug. "I feel better now." Evie smiles, and Jay returns it. Jay walks towards the door to leave. "By the way, how did you get in here without a key?" Evie asked as he almost left.

"Oh. Mal lent me hers." Jay said as he twirled he key around his finger. "Thanks again, Jay."

"No problem." Jay said as he closed the door.

~After School~

Evie is studying on her desk as Mal walks in the room. "Hey, Eves. What happened earlier today?" Mal asks, curiously.

"Oh! Doug broke up with me." Evie says surprisingly more nonchalant then Mal thought she would be. "Oh that reminds me!" She pulls out a signature Evie blue dress with darker blue lace short sleeves, and lace forming a small pocket on the chest from her wardrobe.

"What do you think?"

Mal looks at her widened eyes and her brows furrowed. "WHAT?!" Mal asks.

"What?" Evie asks looking for an answer.

"How are you just suddenly Happy?"

"Well, that was a while ago."

"A While ago?! It was this Morning!" Mal exclaimed.

"I move on quickly." Evie says, shrugged while straightening out her dress.

"Clearly." Mal joked.

"Okay. So, how do you like this?"

"It's beautiful! When did you make that?"

"Yesterday." Evie says nonchalant.

Evie puts her dress away and goes back to studying as Mal sits down on her bed, and lays her head down on her pillow. Until she feels something wet, and quickly sits up and looks at the pillow.

"Ew! What is this!" Mal shouts.

Evie turns her head from her homework in confusion. "What?"

"Why is my pillow wet?"

"Oh. I guess I accidentally sobbed on your bed. Sorry. I can make you another one from old fabric." Evie suggests.

"It's okay. I can't tell the difference between your tears and my drool, anyway." Mal says. Evie's eyes widen in realization.

"By the way, sorry I wasn't here. I saw Jay run towards you and I didn't think I needed to come. But he got back to school so quickly, I assumed he gave up trying to pick the lock." Mal asks.

"Oh! He didn't give up. He came in and made me feel better." Evie tells her friend.

"You let him in? You locked Me out when you needed privacy!"

"I didn't let him in. I locked the door. But He used the key you lent him to get in." Evil Queen's daughter explained.

"I didn't lend him my key. Darn it, Jay!" Mal shouts in realization. "That's why I couldn't find my key." Evie giggles. Mal looks over from her bed.

"Hey. Why are you smiling like that?" Mal asks.

"Like what?" Evie asks, still smiling wide.

"Like the Joker." They both giggle. "Last time you smiled this wide, you were with Doug. Sorry for mentioning it."

"It's alright. I'm not those girls who hold grudges." Evie says still smiling.

"Clearly." Mal joked.

"But what's your point?" Evie asked.

"My point is," Mal gets to the point. "You have a Crush." Mal says in a singsong voice.

"No I don't. And if I did, who would it even be?" Evie asked.

"I could guess. A guy, with a beanie, who you can't stop smiling about." Mal says.

"Jay? Why would I have a crush on Jay?" Evie asked.

"Maybe because he has a crush on you."

"He does not. We're just friends. And how would I have a crush on him and not know it?"

"I had a crush on Ben and I didn't know until I went on a date with him. And feelings are complicated. That's a possibility." Mal explained.

"You're just tired. Go to bed, and you'll see tomorrow that all of this is crazy talk." Evie insisted. Mal sighed and rolled her eyes as she laid back down on the pillow she flipped so it wasn't wet. "You'll see tomorrow that you were wrong." Mal said to Evie as she put her books away, got in her pajamas, and headed to bed.

Although, she went to bed late, thinking about what Mal said. Was it crazy talk? Was it true?

Do I Like Jay?
