Requested By: pxn. pxnk (I hope this one-shot was worth the wait. I wasn't sure if you wanted a romantic pair or a friendship pair with the two; so I went with friendship).
(Besides, I always saw Evie/Carlos having more of a brother/sister relationship then a couple one).

Summary: Set during D2. Evie helps Carlos with his Cotillion outfit and the two have a friendly chat...

Chapter 9

Theme 42: Fashion

Carlos/Evie

The Cotillion was an upcoming formal school dance that all of Auradon was talking about.

The only reason it was such a big deal was because it was a dance to help celebrate Ben's recent coming of a King and Mal a recent coming of a Lady of the Court.
Of course, that was the main reason it was being held and celebrated, but another reason, was just so the princes and princesses of Auradon could have a social gather that was in a way overdue need.

But, before there could even be a dance, many things needed to be considered.

For one, where it was held? This year, Ben had decided it was to be on their local kingdoms cruise ship.
Secondly; decorations? Color wise, and theme wise. Which, of course, was decided and being set up as we speak.
Thirdly; dates. It was that time of year where princes and princesses talked about who was going with who and who was dumping who for who. So really; it was a big drama deal.
And, finally; outfits. For the princesses, it was a bet on who could wear the finest tux or suite. For princesses, it was a bet for who could wear the finest and richest dress.

At least, that's how things normally went...

This year, there was a different saying in the fashion statement thanks to one of Auradon's recent Villain Kids residents.
Evie the daughter of the Evil Queen had started a new fashion line décor named Evie's Four Hearts and everyone wanted the latest fashion from her.
Not only (has Evie learned as she worked) did the normal residents of Auradon want the latest fashion, but her three friends from the Isle of the Lost did as well.
Which, was why, on this day and time, Evie found herself working on her friends Carlos's (the son of Curella De Vil) outfit.

"Now; turn..." Evie instructed as she stepped back to allow her friend to turn on the stool he was standing on.

Once he turned, Evie got back to work.

"Are you sure this outfit will look okay?" Carlos asked with slight nervousness as he watched his friend work in the mirrors reelection.

Evie nodded, "Yup. I'm going with not only your usual theme colors, but a style that matches your personality as well." Evie finished explaining as she continued to sew one of the side seems.

"Alrighty...I'm trusting you." Carlos muttered as he bit his lip in thought.

While he did, Evie eyed him with slight thought. For the past couple of days, (ever since this whole Cotillion thing started to be the big talk), she, along with Mal and Jay had noticed that Carlos started acting a little unusual.
Lifting her head after she fixed another seem, Evie eyed him with interest. Watching her friend look at his almost complete outfit in the mirror; she smiled.

"So; speaking of Cotillion, are you planning on asking anyone to go with you?" Evie questioned with sweetness, (in hopes of not making it awkward for her friend) as she stopped sewing and took a step back to check her work.

Carlos seemed to blush at the question, "Um...there is someone in mind." Carlos began to explain with a nervous tone.
"But, uh, I-I'm not sure i-if she'd even c-consider going with a v-villain k-kid like myself." Carlos finished with a sad sigh.

Evie frowned and crossed her arms, "Carlos; that's ridiculous!" Evie stated as she shook her head and placed a comforting hand on his shoulder.
"If anything; she'd be lucky to go with a guy like yourself." Evie finished as she smiled at him.

He eyed her in thought. "Really?" Carlos wondered as he straightened his poster and smiled. "You really think so?" Carlos wondered as he began to think of his happily-ever-after.
Once more, Evie nodded and hummed in agreement. Before she could say anything else, Carlos spoke up again. "But, uh, what if people don't approve of it? What if - " Carlos began to question before Evie interrupted him.

"Oh stop, would you!?" Evie questioned as she shook her head, bent down to grab more sewing supplies and began to work once more.
She continued to talk, "Who cares what anyone thinks right!?" Evie challenged as she looked up at her friend. "Look at where we are Carlos; Auradon! And, in Auradon anything is possible, right?"

Carlos sighed in hesitation, "Yeah, but..." Carlos began once more only for Evie to stop him again.

" - But, what!?" Evie snapped suddenly as she pulled away from her work to eye her friend and cross her arms. To, Evie, this was starting to get ridiculous! Sure, she always knew Carlos was a little self-conscious (thanks to Curella) but, she didn't know he was this self-conscious. Shaking her head, she sighed, finally breaking the awkward silence that formed around the two. "Carlos, take it from me. From the time, I've known you, you've got a big heart. At least, that's what I've learned." Evie began to explained as Carlos eyed her with interest. "And, believe it or not, your nothing like your mother and I think your funny, kind, sweet, caring and an amazing, loyal friend. I don't know why you're thinking about all this negative stuff, but I do know that it's wrong! You need to just be you." Evie added as she pulled her friend into a hug. They stayed like that for a moment, before Evie pulled away and eyed him with interest once more. "So; whoever the lucky girl is, ask her. Because any girl would be lucky to call you their prince." Evie finished with a huge smile.

Carlos chuckled to himself at the thought, "Thanks Evie, you're a really good friend. I need that." Carlos finished explaining as he smiled.

Evie got to work once more, finishing the last touches on his outfit. As she did, Carlos broke the silence again.
"Well, I do have one question though." Carlos began as he sighed. "Say I did want to ask this girl, what advice would you give me, if you could give me some?" Carlos wondered as he shrugged and began to think things over.

"To be honest, if a guy was asking me to the dance, I'd want him to just be himself." Evie explained as she smiled. "I'd want him to be up front and ask me, sure you see guys making romantic gestures, which is nice and all, but sometimes, just the simplest ask is all you need." Evie finished as she stepped back and admired her finished work. "If it were me, I'd just want a guy who would treat me like an equal and love me just as much as I love him." Evie finished as she began to clean up her sewing stuff and put it away.

"Awesome! Thanks for the advice E!" Carlos stated as he smiled, he then began to think of ways to ask the girl he wanted to ask, out.

"Well, you're welcome! Anytime you need someone to talk too, I'm here." Evie finished as she finished putting her stuff away.
She then turned to Carlos. "So; what do you think of your finished outfit?" Evie wondered as she watched her friend look at himself in the mirror.

Carlos looked it over for a moment, before turning to Evie, "I love it! Thanks a lot Evie!" Carlos finished once more as he hopped off the stepping stool and hugged his friend.

"Your welcome." Evie replied as she smiled, she really loved what she did with fashion. "Now; if you want to use our bathroom to change back into your other clothes; I can keep the suite until Cotillion so it doesn't get ruined." Evie suggested simply.

Carlos nodded, "Sounds good to me." Carlos finished.

So, taking Evie's suggestion, he grabbed his normal clothing and went to change while Evie finished her work. While she finished writing up the information, Carlos came back out of the bathroom, changed into his previous outfit.
Handing her the suite he just had on, the two bid their goodbyes to one another until they saw one another again later that day. All while Carlos left, Evie wished him good luck on asking his supposed mystery girl out to the dance.
It was only later, when she found that he had been trying to ask Jane, and couldn't be happier for the both of them...
