Chapter 3 : A Villain's First Kiss

The morning sunlight sprawled through the window of the boy's dorm room, with little birds chirping outside the window. Carlos slipped out of his deep sleep, rubbing his eyes as he sat upright. He let out a yawn, gazing across the room. Jay's bed was empty, and Dude was nowhere in sight.

Carlos crawled out of bed, now realizing he was still in his tourney uniform. "Jay?" He called out, walking towards the open bathroom door. Empty.

Did he take Dude out for a walk?

That didn't sound like Jay; but after last night, he accepted the fact his friends would probably be babying him all day. Being overly nice and never bringing up what happened at the game, even though millions of rumors have probably spread around the school by now. Hell, maybe all of Auradon knows by now.

He stripped himself of his jersey and gear, before peeling off his shorts, undershirt, and compression shorts. Now in a pair of black boxer-briefs, the young villain walked towards the bathroom, before starting the shower.

Ben stabled himself on the horse, smiling to his mother, who was nervously watching him attempt to ride it. Belle loved horses, just not when her precious son was riding them.

"Darling, I think we need to talk about what happened yesterday." Her voice was calm, almost radiant.

The sixteen-year-old nodded, petting the horses mane.

"Aurora's not happy about what you did to Audrey..." She added, "I received a very... colorful... letter from her this morning. Audrey's devastated."

"I didn't love her, Mom."

Belle sighed, "I realize that, but did you have to say that in front of the entire school? And I'm sure Carlos didn't appreciate it either."

Ben looked down at the horse, "He didn't..."

"Look, you're going to be King in less than a month, I know you're only sixteen, but you should know better than that. It's almost like you aren't even yourself."

"It's called being in love, Mom."

The Queen nodded, "Maybe so, and I'm glad you've finally accepted your sexuality. Even though it was a shock, I didn't bat an eye. But sweetie, this is big news. It's news you shouldn't tell the entire school during a tourney game. Especially when Audrey was in strangling distance."

They both smiled at the last sentence, before Belle added, "I mean, that girl was always such a kiss-up."

Carlos stepped out into the hallway, seeing a few students down one end of the corridor. Walking the other direction, he found his way into the main hall, where he ran right into a few students. Of course, Cinderella's son had to be the one that saw him first.

"Well," Chad began, "If it isn't Ben's little boyfriend."

The freckled-teen tensed up, eyeing Chad and the two other boys behind him. He looked so much taller when he was closer. Carlos stepped back, turning his heels and tried to head back the way he came. He heard them laugh after he turned the corner.

His fists clenched as he walked down the other direction of the hallway, happy that the students were gone now. But he was even happier when he ran into Jay, holding Dude in his arms.

The dog barked in excitement, jumping into the other boy's arms.

"Whoa!" Carlos exclaimed, quickly gripping the dog to his chest, "You surprised me!"

"Glad you're finally awake, I thought you might have pricked your finger on a spinning wheel or something." Jay smiled, "I was just about to get breakfast, you hungry?"

He nodded eagerly, feeling his stomach growl. "Starving."

After putting Dude back in their room, the two of them made their way to a table outside. Mal and Evie were already there, enjoying their fully-appetizing meals. Who could blame them, rotten apples was their main food source back on the Isle. But soon, after taking over Auradon, the villains will be treated to food only royalty could eat.

Carlos couldn't help but look down at his feet as some of the students looked at him, smiling and giggling with their friends when he passed them. Jay noticed too, glaring back at them menacingly.

"Hey, guys," The young villain said softly, taking a seat next to the daughter of Maleficent. Jay sat next to Evie, quickly swiping her fresh apple.

"Finally, you're awake. I thought my mother got to you or something..." Mal nudged his shoulder, before biting into a strawberry. She quickly took a liking, chewing down more and more.

Evie stole back her apple from Jay, before handing it to Carlos. Jay scoffed in retaliation, while Carlos eagerly took a bite.

Holy crap. This is way better than rotten apples!

"Any news on the Ben situation?" Carlos asked, still chewing his first bite. The three villains before him tensed, unsure if they should talk about it.

"I-I don't know... I haven't seen him today." Evie replied, her look softening.

Mal nodded, "He's listening to orders, we told him to give you your space. What good that'll do to the plan of getting the wand, I don't know. But-"

She zipped her lips when Evie and Jay glared at her, before looking back at Carlos, who silently took another bite of the apple. "Sorry..." Mal whispered.

"It's fine," Carlos was quick to respond, "You're right. We need to stick to the plan, we need to get Fairy Godmother's wand so we can free our parents."

"So does that mean you're gonna tell Ben that you love him too?" Jay asked; his concerned look growing.

"That's the plan."

Ben swayed back and forth on the porch swing, watching the hedge trimmers touch up the Beast-bush from his bedroom balcony. He missed Carlos deeply, he missed his adorable smile that would form whenever he spotted chocolate or when he was with Dude, he missed his frosty-white hair, and his dark brown eyes. He missed his freckles, he missed the constant black and white clothing. He even missed the sound of his voice.

"Hey..." The Prince's eyes averted to the boy in the doorway.

Carlos' smile made Ben's heart skip a beat, he jumped up, and walked towards him cautiously. "Carlos, I am so, so, so sorry about yesterday. I didn't mean-"

"It's okay." The villain cut him off, "I thought about it, and... I think I love you, too."

Ben's smile couldn't have been wider, "S-So what does that mean? A-Are we... dating?"

Carlos grinned, "If you're still interested in me, then yeah. We're dating."

The Prince pumped up his fist, "Yes!" He whirled around, grabbing Carlos by his wrist and pulling him close. Heat flushed both of their cheeks as Ben's hands wrapped around his new boyfriend. Their faces were a mere inch from each other, before they quickly closed the gap and locked lips. After pulling away, the younger teen touched his still sizzling lips, a smile spreading across his face.

"Was that your first kiss?" The soon-to-be-King asked, his eyes sparkling.

Carlos nodded, "I'm glad it was with you..."

Ben smiled, "Wanna do it again-"

The fourteen-year-old leaned up, kissing the Prince once again, his arms curled around the older boy's waist. Ben easily took over, pressing down on the soft lips that belonged to the love of his life. He never wanted the heavenly sensation to end, not even for air.

But alas, they separated. Both of them feeling their lips as they tingled.

"And to think, all that was separating us was that stupid barrier..." Ben beamed, Carlos nodded, "Someone should get rid of that thing..."

Okay, sorry it was such a short chapter, but don't worry, I'm super excited about this story, and I plan on the next chapter being longer. Tell me what you think by leaving a review. Thank you for all the support, and I'll see you next time!
