A/N: I got my first review (and a few more!), you guys have made me one happy writer. I don't want to say much, but what you're waiting for is coming, 101 times over ;)

Monday morning dawned bright and early for the villain kids, classes were tolerable, except goodness 101, that made them all want to scream. If a kid was crying you ignored it until it's parent shut it up, nice and easy.

They settled into a schedule with ease, Jay would spend his day flirting with every female in the school and his nights cuddling with Carlos. Carlos played Tourney and made friends with Dude, the campus dog. He also gained a small addiction to video games, but no one seemed to mind. Evie showed everyone she was more than just a pretty face and currently had the highest grades in their classes, she was also involved with the sons of the seven dwarfs. Mal, Jay and Carlos worried about her sexual relations, but decided to let it go, after all it wasn't their business what or who she did after hours. Mal had the biggest change of them all, she was happily dating Ben, after he very publicly dumped his girlfriend and asked Mal out. Most people didn't know he'd actually asked her out in private before he dumped Audrey, but Mal had practiced being good and told him to ask again when he was single. Ben's parents were less than thrilled at the development, but both kids seemed happy so they left things alone.

Two months into school Fairy Godmother announced a school dance. Jay caught Mal's eye across the room, her face made it clear she was no happier than him. Evie and Carlos looked happy and terrified at the same time. Jay knew Carlos loved to dance, but usually it was around their room, not at some formal event.

Carlos grinned, a dance was perfect. With any luck he could convince Jay to go with him to the dance, the last two months they spent their nights together. Weekends often had cuddling as well, but that was it. They weren't officially a couple, they didn't kiss or anything and Jay seemed to have made it his goal to make out with every girl except Mal under the bleachers. Rumors said he'd even been caught with Evie once. Carlos wanted to be mad, he wanted to be jealous and demand Jay stop it, but he knew that would just drive him away. Instead he began to plot, while he may not be inherently evil, he was raised by it, he could out scheme Mal if he really tried.

Jay was torn. Part of him wanted to bring one of Auradons stunning young princesses to the dance, but another part of him wanted to bring Carlos. He shook his head, this was stupid. Jay knew he had a crush on the smaller boy, he had for ages. He also was sure it would never be returned, which was why he kept going from one girl to the next. He still had a shallow hope he'd find someone that madefeel as alive as he did with Carlos.

One week before the dance Carlos was laying on the couch, his head in Jays lap. Jay was counting his freckles while Carlos watched TV. Right on schedule the program was interrupted for a commercial, Carlos stretched out and laid on his back so he was looking up at Jay. Jay offered him one of his parented smirks.

"So you got a date for the dance?" Carlos asked. He'd plotted and planned and in the end it turned out he couldn't come up with a scheme that didn't make him feel like an ass, so he'd given up and decided he'd just go to the dance alone.

"Nah, I was gonna ask Lonnie, but recent events stopped that idea" Jay said with a small chuckle. The school had been abuzz earlier that day when Mary, daughter of Merida had lost all patience with Lonnie and pushed the taller girl against a locker. After a short make out session Lonnie asked Mary to the dance and that was two more girls no one could bring. "What about you?" Jay asked.

"No one asked me, but I'll probably go anyway, I mean there isn't a rule that we have to bring a date. Besides you know me and dancing." Carlos grinned. Everyone knew about Carlos and dancing, it was the boys favorite thing. He'd even figured out how to use his moves in Tourney to avoid the bigger players; a feat that made the coach suggest cheer-leading rather than band.

Jay made a small humming noise that Carlos knew meant he was thinking, which knowing Jay wasn't a good thing. He was just about to ask him what he was thinking when the commercial ended, he immediately flipped back on his side to watch the show.

As the show ended Carlos took a deep breath, trying to calm his nerves. He'd told himself he'd ask jay as soon as the show was over, now that it was over he was second guessing that. While he had an internal debate their door banged open to admit Mal. While they had started knocking elsewhere, with each other they still didn't bother. Besides the doors had locks if one really wanted privacy.

Mal walked in, stumbling slightly before catching herself on the back of the couch. Clasped in her hand was a bottle of amber liquid, that she dropped in Jay's lap, narrowly missing Carlos' head.

"A little gift for the love birds." She giggled before staggering back out the door with a "I'm going back to Ben, ta!"

"What the hell?" Carlos wondered aloud.

Jay looked at the bottle, Jack Skellington's Whiskey. They kids on the Isle had some experience with alcohol, after all their fruit was half fermented when they got it. But no one in Auradon threw out Jacks.

"That my friend was a drunk Mal." Jay grinned, him and Mal had gotten totally wasted together before. The girl always turned into a giggling mess when she was drunk.

Carlos thought for half a second before grabbing the bottle from Jays hand and spinning the cap off, he'd just gotten the bottle to his lips when Jay pulled the bottle back, "hang on, have you ever drank anything before?" Jay was all for underage drinking, but that last thing he needed was a barfing Carlos. Carlos didn't say a word, just pulled the bottle back, Jay let him this time. Carlos tipped it back and took a swallow, smirking as it burned down his throat. "Yeah, I've drank before" was all the small boy offered before handing the bottle back.

Jay was in shock, Carlos, Isle nerd who never partied could drink whiskey without so much as a flinch. Mal still made a face on her first shots of anything stronger than wine, and she could be considered borderline alcoholic. Oh well, when in Auradon, he thought before taking his own gulp and handing the bottle back to Carlos. It had already been hit pretty hard when they got it, but between the two of them they finished it off. While they drank neither talked, just enjoying the warmth spreading through their limbs.

"I drank a lot on the Isle, kinda missed it here." Carlos said, his speech came out much better than Mal's. "Use to steal from Cruella and drink in my room. Helped keep everything numb." Jay stared at his friend, absently carding his hand through Carlos hair. "I didn't think Auradon of all places would encourage underage drinking."

Jay laughed. "I don't think it's encouraged" Jay said, pausing between each word as if he had to remember how to say them. "I mean, kids are kids right?"

"Mhmm" Carlos hummed while attempting to move, he sat up and smiled as the room spun. That was his favorite effect of alcohol. He scooted around until he was leaning against Jay, who laughed and pulled Carlos into his lap. "That wasn't the plan" the white hair boy protested weakly.

"Was still a good idea" Jay said while wrapping his arms around Carlos. A few minutes passed in silence before Carlos had, what he felt was the best idea of his entire life. Sure he'd had it before, but now it seemed like a really good idea.

"Mhmm, speaking of good ideas, why don't you go to the dance with me."

"Pretty sure Mal planned this" Jay lamented before smiling down at Carlos, "sure I'll go with you".

"Like more than friends, go with me?" Carlos asked

"Like Evie can make us matching outfits and we'll pose under that stupid arch, go with you." Jay agreed.

Both teens fell asleep on the couch, when morning came neither was very happy.

"Turn off the fucking sun" Jay groaned while Carlos hid from the offending light against his chest. Both had just been rudely awoken by Evie bouncing into their room. She spotted the bottle that had been discarded on the floor between them and started laughing. Both boys groaned at the noise, Evie took pity on them and quieted down. "I see Mal decided to share with you two." She said quietly sitting on the other end of the couch.

"And here I thought she loved us" Carlos whined.

"She does, she's probably in worse shape than you if it's any help."

"Sorta" jay said

"So anyway I can to find out if you guys wanted to go shopping for clothes for the dance, we're allowed down to the village today and FG said she'd give us a small allowance to get clothes." Evie continued "something about not wanting us left out".

"Well" jay started "Me and C are kinda going together and he mentioned last night that he'd like you to make our outfits."

The noise Evie let out had both guys holding their ears and wincing, "Oh right, hang over." She laughed "I'd be thrilled, I think FG won't mind of we use the money for fabric rather than clothes. Why don't you two get ready and we'll go?" Evie bounced off the couch and in an extraordinary show of goodness pulled the heavy drapes over the windows which threw the room into a near pitch black state.

"Oh thank evil!" Carlos said as he picked his head up, only to drop it back onto Jays chest. "Son of a bitch, my head hurts."

"Mine too" Jay said, while Evie walked out the door to get Mal and Ben.

Carlos took a deep breath and got up, after a minute of rummaging he came up with a small foil packet inside were two pills. He gave one to Jay who looked at him like he had two heads, "After a night of drinking you think I wanna add drugs?"

"Wrong drugs, it's for the headache" Carlos grinned as he took his pill.

Nearly an hour later the boys were ready to go, Jay had even gone so far as to reopen the curtain while telling Carlos what a genius he was. "All I did was pilfer garbage." Carlos said, I've had them since the Isle, those were my last two though.

"We'll get more then" Jay said, " I mean those are really fucking cool"

Carlos smiled, medications of any kind were rare on the Isle. Everyone was out to kill each other so unless you took it yourself from the ship, you didn't want to take it. Carlos often had to go to the wharf for his mother, so he'd gotten good at getting everything he needed, his slight size helped him slip into gaps left between larger villains.

Shopping was an adventure. Ben already had his outfit for the dance, and Evie was almost done with Mal's, both however wanted shoes to match, which Evie didn't make, so they tagged along to the village. Jay and Carlos stood by nearly useless while Evie picked fabrics for the outfits, "why are we even here" Jay grumbled after twenty minutes of Evie flitting around the fabric racks.

"Your cheerful disposition" Ben said.

"I'm rubbing off on you!" Mal laughed

"In more ways that one, I'm sure" Carlos mumbled, which made Jay and Evie laugh while Mal and Ben blushed.

"Okay, I'm good. I have measurements and stuff for you guys in my room, so this was all I needed you for" Evie said.

"I still don't see why you needed us!" jay said.

"I didn't, I wanted you here" she replied while flitting to the counter.

"You four are like one, really messed up family" Ben observed.

"We are not" four voices answered him.

"Not helping the case any" Ben laughed at them.

"We can't be family, I've kissed all of them" Evie shot over her shoulder. That made Ben pause. Carlos bit his tongue, him and Evie had never kissed but he was in no hurry to ruin her fun.

"I did say really messed up, didn't I?" Ben asked exaggerating the word really, even more than last time. That made the four laugh. "Lets get lunch, my treat" he told the group, "There's this awesome diner down the way". The Isle kids gladly followed him, none of them had been out to eat before, all they had was a coffee shop that sold glorified mud.

Evie finished both outfits in record time, but refused to let anyone, but Mal see them. The purple haired girl reassured her friends that they were brilliant, just like everything Evie made. Saturday morning Evie brought the outfits over to the boys, and left immediately, she needed all the time she could get to perfect her hair and make up.
