Authors Note: Hey guys. So sorry this is rough. I am pretty new to writing Fan Fiction. I have been reading fan fiction for as long as I can remember, but I wanted to try my hand at writing it. I hope you enjoy as I have enjoyed the many fan fiction stories I've read. The Devie pairing really inspired me to start writing my ideas on paper (more like computer, but you know what I mean). I just feel like this is my favorite couple because they are so different, but still work well. I just wish I had more content from the movies about them. I have read some great stories on Devie and wanted to contribute some of my own ideas. If you have any suggestions on my writing then please leave it in the comments. I would like to do better in formatting my stories in the future. If you have suggestions on ideas then please comment as well. I know some may not like my writing, but thank you for reading anyways. I hope you enjoy. Thank you again!
Note: I don't own the Descendants world, characters, ideas, etc. I just am a writer who wants to expand on the relationship that Doug and Evie have. Thank you again.
Chapter One: Foretelling the Future
After pushing Mal out of the way through the magic mirror Evie paid the price. She knew she shouldn't have gone through her mother's magic mirror but what choice did she have? She had to save her best friend. She doesn't regret her choice but now she has to make the most of the time she has left.
After they promoted and went through VK day, graduated, and dealt with Audrey and made amends with Uma (all the events of rise of the isle of the lost and descendants 3) Evie knew she didn't have long before her eternal sleep. Even true loves kiss won't break this curse. Now onto the story
After briefly visiting her mother with the rest of the core 4, Evie was sitting in her sewing room making clothes for all of her esteemed clients: Jasmine for her upcoming party, Mulan and the soldiers to create new and improved uniforms for training and combat, and everyone attending the wedding of the decade-Mal and Ben's wedding.
This thought made her grow nostalgic and she stopped her sewing and stared off into space. She knew she most likely wouldn't make the wedding of her best friend but she was sad at this fact. Mal even asked her to be her maid of honor. At first she didn't know what it meant since they usually didn't go through the formalities of a wedding back on the Isle of the Lost, but she knew this was a big deal. That's why she wanted to start making everyone's clothes now so that Mal's wedding and guests would look perfect. She stopped staring off into space when she finally realized someone was staring at her with eyes filled with worry.
"Evie, are you ok? You look like you're somewhere else right now." Doug her wonderful boyfriend asked her. Evie got herself together in her head and put her smile back on her face and tried to dispel Doug's worry.
"Doug! I'm ok. I just have so many orders that I have so many design ideas in my mind. Plus I have to get ready for the beginning of Auradon Prep's school year. I need to help Dizzy, Celia, Squeaky, and Squirmy get all their supplies today at 1:00." Evie said with her usual bright smile.
Doug came up to Evie and touched the slight bags under her eyes that were hidden under her make up. "I can see you're tired. Why don't you go to sleep for a little bit while I take the four to get what they need for school?" Doug said.
Doug was very worried about her especially when she told him that she was turned into stone for a little bit by Audrey. Even though she was safe Doug was always worried about Evie. He may not be strong, but he wanted to try protect her the best he could.
Evie knew she only had only a little time left so she wanted to spend as much time with Dizzy and the rest of the VKs but she really wanted to spend more time with Doug. Once he leaves for college in three days he won't be able to visit as often and she knew she wouldn't last two more weeks.
She knew the curse would take her before then. Even though she was the Evil Queen's daughter, no one was immune to the Magic Mirrors curse of eternal sleep. The longest anyone ever held out before they succumbed to eternal sleep was 1 month.
"It's ok Doug. I want to spend all the time I have with you before you go to college. I will get more sleep when you leave for college." Evie countered seeing the irony of her statement.
Doug looked at Evie with a dubious look, especially when she didn't comment about how he inadvertently said he saw bags under her eyes. But in the end he accepted her reasoning and agreed with her wanting to spend time with him. "Ok... but the only condition I have is that when we get back from shopping you will not sew for the rest of the night." Doug could see Evie was almost going to throw a fit, but he put a finger in front of her lips. "Instead you will be with me in my room watching a movie." Doug smiled his dopey like smile that Evie loves and made her give in.
"Oh Doug. Fineeee. I give up... WAIT WHAT TIME IS IT RIGHT NOW!" Evie said standing up eyes wide.
Startled, Doug replied "It's 12 right now. Why? What's happening?"
"I only have one hour to get ready to go shopping!" Evie freaked.
Doug has a look of disbelief for a second then after chuckled. Before Evie could run to her room Doug caught her and hugged her before she left to get ready. "You never fail to surprise me Evie. I can't understand what I did to deserve you. I still can't believe this is real."
Evie blushed and hugged Doug back. Then she remembered her initial mission. "Don't interrupt me Doug!" Evie laughed and playfully slapped Doug's arm once he released her.
Doug smiled his usual smile that made Evie smile too. He led her to her room in the cottage and before she closed her door to get ready she pecked a kiss on his lips. "I'm the one who doesn't deserve you." Evie said with so much affection then closed the door.
Doug was startled by the impromptu kiss on the lips. He internally thought 'This was the first time she kissed me since I was spelled. Heigh-Ho'. Once he could move he went to the living room area of the house to see the four new VKs sitting at the kitchen table just hanging around. They had their stuff in boxes ready to go so they could easily move into their dorms for their first year at Auradon.
"Hey everyone. Evie is getting ready then we can go shopping for your supplies for the school year." Doug explains.
Dizzy, granddaughter of Lady Tremaine, was the closest to Evie and knew that an hour was not much time for her to get ready. "Wow Evie really must have been absorbed in making her dresses. She only has an hour to get ready!"
Squeaky and Squirmy, sons of Smee, were as quiet as ever and just nodded as acknowledgement.
Celia, daughter of Dr. Fraiser, rolled her eyes and pulled out her cards. And looked at Dizzy. "Since we have time why don't we have a gander at the future? No?"
Dizzy knew her best friend would trick her out of her money so she replied, "No way Celia. Not again. You already got $20 out of me!"
Celia just frowned and turned to the twins and they immediately shook their heads veraciously.
Then Celia's attention was all on Doug. "Well? We don't have anything else to do." Celia persuaded.
Doug had a few dollars to spare so he gave in and picked a card and gave it back to Celia.
Celia had a grim looking face and didn't speak for a little while. Doug looked nervous and asked "what is it? Is something wrong?"
Celia looked up and said "The cards say you're going to lose something very soon to death itself. No one has ever picked this card. Here or on the Isle."
Doug felt a chill from inside him and knew something was going to happen but he didn't know what.
