Carlos POV

I woke up at 6 am and went to go take a shower after I was done I put some clothes on and Jay says to me.

Jay: So, Carlos today is the day you finally tell Mal how you really feel anyways good luck telling her how you really feel.

Me: Thanks Jay.


Mal's POV

Right before school was about ready to start I was standing by my locker talking to Evie, Jane and Lonnie about the Coronation Ball.

Jane: So, Lonnie do you have a date for the Coronation Ball?

Lonnie: In matter of fact I do have a date to the Coronation Ball.

Jane: Who is it?

Lonnie: It's Jay he asked me to be his date to the Coronation Ball the other day.

Evie: So, Lonnie are you two dating or something?

Lonnie: No, we are just friends.

Evie: I don't care what you say about yours and Jay's relationship because I totally ship it. I think you two would make a cute couple. I have this feeling that you two would one day fall in love with each other.

Lonnie: Yeah right that's never going to happen.

The rest of the day flew by during lunch Evie was talking to me, Jay and Carlos about the sing off.

Evie: Hey guys, Family Day is in six days which means we only have a week to prepare for the sing off against the Poison Apples. I was thinking maybe after school we practice for the sing off in the music room.


Evie's POV

After school was over, I meet up with Carlos, Jay and Mal in the music room so, we can discuss what song we are going to sing on Family Day at the sing off.

Me: Does anyone have any suggestion of what we should name our song that we sing on Family Day?

Mal: How about we named our song "Rotten to the Core" because we are rotten….

Then me, Carlos, Jay and Mal all say "to the core" in unison.


Carlos POV

After dinner, I headed to the music room to practice playing a song on the piano that I'm thinking about singing to Mal to tell her how I feel. I know how to play a little bit because when I was younger everyone had to take music class and everyone was taught how to play the piano. I have been practicing how to play this one song I really like from Liv and Maddie on the piano. The song is called "True Love" by Dove Cameron. I guess the reason why I like this song so much is because the song reminds me of the girl, I am in love with which is my best friend Mal. I started playing "True Love" on the Piano then Mal walks in the music room.

Mal: I didn't know that you are great at playing the piano.

Me: I am honestly not that great.

Mal: I think you are very talented at playing the piano.

Me: Thanks, Mal you're the best.

Mal: What song are you playing?

Me: I have been practicing for fun how to play this one song I really like from Liv and Maddie on the piano. The song is from the prom episode where Liv performs a song at prom about how she feels about her crush.

Mal: I know what song you're talking about it is called "True Love" by Dove Cameron.

Me: Yeah that is the song I am talking about.

Then Mal sits down next to me on the piano bench.

Mal: I love that song because I can relate to the lyrics.

Me: Mal, there's something that I need to tell you.

Mal: What is it?

I just need to tell Mal the truth that I've been secretly in love with her for years. I need to tell her that every love song reminds of her. I love every single thing about this girl and would do anything to be with her.

Me: Never mind it doesn't matter.

Then I start playing the song on the piano and started singing along to the melody.


True Love by Dove Cameron and Jordan Fisher (Piano duet)


Me: If I could do it all over maybe I'd do it different. Maybe I wouldn't be here in this position.

Mal: I found you then I lost you. Looking back is torture and it hurts to know I let you go you live around the corner.

Mal and Carlos: And I could've had it all, could've had it all. True love, I knew I had it. True love was so hard to find. True love, if I could get it back I'd never let it go this time.

Me: True love.

Mal: Is an inspiration.

Me: True love.

Mal: It was mine, all mine.

Me: True love.

Mal: Yeah.

Me: I'd never let it go.

Mal: I'd never let it go.

Mal and Carlos: I'd never let it go this time.


The whole time we were singing a duet together I kept looking at her beautiful face. At the end of the song we were both starring back at each other. Our faces were inches apart close enough where we can just easily kiss at that moment. The next thing I know it I found myself leaning in close to her and was about ready to kiss her. No matter how much I want to kiss her I just can't do it. I want to kiss her so badly, but I am afraid that if I do kiss her it will ruin our friendship forever. I can't afford to lose the girl that is not only my whole world, but also my best friend. It would be very wrong if I did kiss Mal because she is one of my best friends. I have no idea how she even feels about me. What if she doesn't feel the same and it ruins our friendship forever? We aren't even together we are just best friends just pretending that we are dating. I am only just pretending to be her boyfriend to get Audrey to leave her alone and stop accusing Mal for stealing Ben from her it's not like we are officially together.

Me: I am so sorry Mal, but I can't do this.

Mal: Carlos, what's wrong?

Mal could tell that something is wrong with me. I really want to tell her the truth about how much I have been in love with her for years, but I just can't.

Me: Nothing just don't worry about me.

Mal: Carlos, please just tell me the truth about what is going on?

Me: Look Mal, I am sorry I messed things up.

Mal: Carlos, look at me you didn't mess anything up.

Me: Yes, I did. I am sorry that I almost kiss you. I was just so caught up in the moment and I almost kiss you. I still can't believe that I almost had my first real kiss with my best friend. I know that I am just pretending to be your boyfriend just to get Audrey off your back this was never supposed to happen.

Mal: Hey Carlos, it's okay we all make mistakes.

Me: No, it's not okay. I have to go before I am about ready to explode.

Then I ran out the music room as fast as I can. I ran through the hallways to go to Mal and Evie's dorm because I really need to talk to Evie about what just happen. I knocked on the door and Evie opened it.

Evie: Hey Carlos, what's wrong?

Me: Hey Evie, does Mal happen to be here? Because I really need to talk to you in private.

Evie: No, Mal is not here she just texted me that she went to the library you can come in my room and tell me what is going on before Mal comes back.

Me: Thank you, Evie for being such a great friend.

Evie walked over to her bed and sat down. Then I went over to Evie's bed and sat down next to her.

Evie: What's going on Carlos?

Me: Evie, I have a confession to make. I really screw things up today because I almost kiss Mal.

Evie was so shock when I told her that I almost kiss Mal.

Evie: What do you mean that "you almost kiss Mal"? What makes you think that it is a bad thing that you almost kiss her today when she is your girlfriend after all?

Me: Evie, there's something that I need to tell you please don't freak out.

Evie: What is it Carlos?

Me: The truth is me and Mal are not actually in a real relationship we have been pretending to date this whole time. Instead of telling Mal how I feel about her I panic when Audrey accused Mal for liking her ex. I knew that Mal didn't like Ben and didn't try to steal him from Audrey. I didn't know what to do I just want Audrey to leave Mal alone. So, I lied to Audrey by telling her that Mal is in a relationship with me which is not true. I have been pretending to be Mal's boyfriend for almost three weeks now. I am sorry Evie I didn't tell you sooner Mal didn't want anyone to know that this whole relationship is fake. I am such an idiot for pretending to be Mal's boyfriend instead of telling her how my feelings for her have been real for the past almost five years now. Then today I made things more awkward for us we were singing and playing on the piano to a love duet song. At the end of the song we were looking at each and I lean in closer to her and I almost kiss her. I didn't know what to do so I just ran off because I was afraid that if I kiss her it would ruin our friendship forever. I don't know what to do Evie. I need some advice on what to do with me having feelings for my best friend. Do you think I should just tell her how I feel or just never tell her how I feel to avoid ruining our friendship forever?

Evie: I knew it! I have known it all along that you're in love with Mal.

Me: Wait, what you have known it all this time and never told me? But how did you even know that I am in love with one of my best friends?

Evie: Yes, I have always known that you like Mal ever since we were in 6th grade. I have known it all along because I have seen the way you look at her Carlos. Both me and Jay I have known it all along because we could just tell how much you love this girl.

Me: What do you think I should do about my feelings for Mal?

Evie: I think you should just tell her truth because she deserves to know the truth. She is your best friend Carlos just tell her how you feel.

Me: Yeah, you're right Evie I should just tell her how I feel. I just wish it was that easy to tell her the truth. Evie, I know that you're so good with chemistry because your mom is a potion dealer. Do you know any potions that can help me get rid of my feelings for best friend, so it doesn't ruin my friendship with the best thing that has ever happen to me?

Evie: No, I am afraid not Carlos that there is not any potion out there that can get rid of your feelings for being in love. Look, I know that it is not easy with being in love when it is getting in the way but trust me being in love is worth it if it all just works out. Just give love a chance because you never know what could happen. Just go run after her and just tell her how you really feel she deserves to know how you really feel. I know that it is scary telling your friend that you are in love with them because you don't know how they will react. I felt the same way with Ben and look what happen we are happy being together. I just want you to be happy Carlos because you're one of my best friends and I just want to see all my friends be happy. I know that you're always happy all the time when you're around Mal. We may be Villain Kids but that doesn't mean we can't have our own happy ending. We get to choose how we want to write our happy ending by rewriting the way we want our story to be told. All you need to do is be the one who makes the first move because Mal is way to stubborn talking about her feelings.

Me: Yeah, you're right Evie I just need to be honest with her about my feelings. I am going to tell her on Monday when I get back from my game. Well I better get going I got a Tourney game this weekend a few hours away and I will be gone most of the weekend.

Evie: Bye, Carlos good luck with your game and go tell her how you really feel.

Me: Thanks Evie, you're the best. I am so glad I got a wonderful friend like you that I can talk to about my girl problems.

Evie: No problem bye, Carlos.

Then right before I leave, I go over to Evie to give her a hug.
