Hi guys! Lots of time skips in this chapter and you'll see why when you read it. I hope everyone enjoys it!
Formal Outfit #1 for Audrey from D2 and Formal Outfit # 1 for Heidi.
I don't own Descendants, only Heidi.
Audrey opened the door and she couldn't believe her eyes.
It wasn't the fact that Heidi was standing there, she was happy about that, but it was what she was wearing that caught her off guard.
"Wha…" She looked at the goddess, her blushing growing darker and darker as she noticed every visible curve.
And that meant all of them.
Heidi wiggled her fingers, "I'm baaaack."
Audrey's only response was to faint.
The goddess blinked and tilted her head, before quickly picking her up, "I had a feeling this would happen, though I didn't quite expect the fainting." She paused, "Must be a princess thing."
Feeling a sense of deja vu, she placed the princess on her bed and chuckled, "If that's how she greets me every time, I may just have to stay in here all the time."
Heidi quickly changed out of her clothes and into a white T-shirt and purple shorts as she slipped her boots off. The goddess walked out of the bathroom and paused at the sight of a blue dress that lay on her bed.
Did she...have a dress made for me? For Cotillion? Heidi thought to herself, tilting her head in curiosity.
What she didn't know was that Audrey had already awoken and was smiling to herself as she noticed the goddess stare at the dress.
"You weren't here when I went to my dressmaker and since she already had your measurements...I had her make one for you." Audrey explained, slowly getting off the bed and approaching Heidi from behind.
Heidi whipped around surprise written all over her face, "You couldn't have done this yesterday or the day before, this dress must have taken weeks!" She exclaimed, clearly confused.
"I put in the request two weeks ago. She owed me again and I figured I'd let her off the hook so long as she made an extra dress according to your measurements." The princess said, looking up at her with a smile, "Do you like it?"
She had it made and didn't even know if I would be here for the occasion… Heidi chuckled softly before picking her up and twirling her around all the while hugging her tightly, much to the shock of Audrey, "I love it. Thank you."
Audrey made this sort of squeak as she managed to release herself from the goddess's bear hug. "I-I'm glad you like it." I think I felt something crack. She thought as she refrained from wincing.
Heidi's eyes suddenly went huge, "Wait, when is the Cotillion?"
Audrey raised an eyebrow, "Uh, tonight?" She looked puzzled as Heidi gaped, "I thought everyone knew that."
"Well, I didn't!" Heidi exclaimed as she fell onto her bed, making sure she didn't lay on the dress, "Ugh…"
Audrey walked over and folded her arms, "Why are you freaking out? We have plenty of time to get you fixed up." She said, smirking as the goddess shot her a confused look, "If we start now, I'll be able to make you Cotillion ready in no time."
"Right now?" The only answer Heidi received was Audrey grabbing her hands and pulling her up off the bed. She is pushed onto a chair and sat down as Audrey appeared in front of her.
"First off, we need to do your hair." Audrey said, looking at the incredible amount the goddess had, "When was the last time you cut it?"
"Uh...Never?" Heidi said, though it sounded more like a question than it did an answer.
Audrey 'hmphed', "Well, we need to wash it. You probably haven't washed it in awhile."
"That's an understatement." Heidi said dryly, looking at herself in the mirror, I do look kind of...dirty. Must have been the thing with Uma.
Before Heidi knew it, she was being shoved in the bathroom.
Two hours later.
A disheveled Audrey yanked a dazed Heidi out, "Why didn't you tell me that water is dangerous to you?" She asked as she sat the goddess down on her bed.
"Didn't think of it…" Heidi mumbled, a goofy smile appearing on her face, "I didn't think that getting your hair wash meant that you could get water on you."
"How did you shower in the past?" Audrey asked incredulously, looking at her strangely.
Heidi hummed in thought, "In the Underworld, I usually had a chair, on the Isle I only gave myself sponge baths. Someone always had to assist me though…"
"Since you faint and almost drown in inches of water?" Audrey asked, an exasperated look on her face.
"Yep." Heidi muttered, glancing at her in curiosity. "What's next?"
Audrey looked at the goddess's hair, "We have to straighten it, that way I can style it."
Heidi pushed herself up, allowing the princess to guide her to the chair, "Mind if I take a short cat nap?"
Audrey picked up her straightening iron, "How hot can I go? I don't want to burn your hair." She asked, patting Heidi on the head to make sure she was awake.
"Considering I can light my hair on fire...I think you can go as hot as you want. If I can't burn it, you can't burn it." Heidi said with a yawn, "I wouldn't worry about it."
Audrey nodded and giggled quietly as the goddess dozed off, I can't say I don't like the hair. Audrey had always wanted long hair but hers never grew that long. She could get it to the middle of her back before she had to cut it again because of split ends and whatnot.
Heidi's on the other hand, was well past her waist and seemed far too healthy for it to be normal. It was...perfect. It was almost as if Heidi had hit the genetic jackpot when it came to the hair, because as much as Audrey tried she couldn't find a single split end. Nothing.
It took the princess around an hour to straighten the goddess's hair, an incredible feat if you took into account the amount of hair Heidi possessed.
Heidi awoke with a groan, "Hey Audrey…" She mumbled as she saw Audrey move in front of her.
"Do you know that you have the best hair I've ever seen?" Audrey said, glancing back at the goddess as she put away her cooled off straightening iron.
"Nope. Didn't know that." Heidi replied, "I know it's the most obnoxious, though." She said with a soft chuckle.
Audrey turned around, "I mean, your hair is-it's just so perfect. No split ends, nothing is damaged, not to mention your hair is healthier than mine! How on earth do you do it?" She asked, walking around and beginning to part sections of Heidi's hair.
Heidi thought for a second or so before shrugging, "It's always been like that. I know some of the gods occasionally commented on it, but I didn't think much of it."
Audrey narrowed her eyes in thought, "One other thing, are you aware that you have perfect skin?"
"What makes you say that?" Heidi asked, looking at Audrey through the mirror.
The princess looked at her, "I know for a fact that you had never had one blemish the entire time you were in Auradon."
Audrey only realized her mistake as soon as Heidi raised an eyebrow and grinned.
"Oh? You've been staring at my face long enough to know that?" She asked, knowing well that Audrey would react to that.
And she did.
Audrey's eyes went wide as she blushed, "N-No!" She exclaimed and ducked out of view as she began working on braiding Heidi's hair.
Heidi laughed, "Aw, I don't mind. I'm humbled that a princess such as yourself would dare to lay eyes on me, a girl who came from the Isle, for such a long time."
Audrey made an adorable little squeak at that, Why is she making me act like this?! I never squeaked around Ben! Audrey thought, blushing brightly as she tried to focus on her task.
"How couldn't I look at you?" She muttered quietly, unaware that Heidi had heard her words.
So, she's had her eyes on me since the very beginning? Hmm… The goddess thought in amusement.
Heidi didn't mind if Audrey stared at her, it wasn't creepy to her and she could care less.
They must have sat in silence for longer than Heidi thought because when Audrey appeared back in front of her it was to say that she was done already.
Heidi simply tilted her head, "Eh, already?"
"It took me around an hour, thankfully I know how to braid fast." Audrey commented, "Give me your hands."
Heidi did so, "Why?"
Audrey rolled her eyes, "Your nails. If we want to look the best you need the works." Audrey looked at the clock, "And we still have a couple hours before my ride picks us up."
"Oh, okay." Heidi said with a shrug as Audrey got to work.
Two hours later.
Heidi escorted Audrey out of the dorm as the princess explained where the driver was going to meet them.
Audrey's dress looked identical to Heidi's only it was in pink and had a few more flowers than Heidi's did.
"So…" Audrey began, looking up at the goddess, "You never mentioned why you were stuck on the Isle overnight."
Heidi blinked, "Oh, right. Uma, daughter of Ursula, sent Harry Hook and Gil, Gaston's son, after me since she was fed up with me picking on her. After they knocked me out, Uma had them bring me to her pirate ship where she threw me in a broom closet for safekeeping after she stole my ember. This morning she brought me out on deck and that's how I was able to get my ember and escape." She explained, much to the shock of Audrey.
"Are you saying you were captured?"
"By pirates."
"You were captured by pirates?!" Audrey exclaimed, panic written all over her face.
Heidi shrugged, "Wasn't a big deal, don't worry about it."
The two walked down the stairs as Audrey 'hmphed' "This is all her fault, you know. If she didn't run away you wouldn't have gotten captured by pirates."
Heidi chuckled, "You can't put all the blame on her, I'm the one who wasn't paying attention."
Audrey calmed down slightly at her words, "Still," She frowned, "I can't believe she'd run away from all her problems. If she can't handle the paparazzi how will she handle being queen?"
Heidi opened the door for her as she smiled softly, "She'll learn, just because she doesn't know now doesn't mean she won't in the future."
The goddess offered Audrey her arm again as Audrey sighed, "You know, you are really optimistic."
Heidi shrugged as they walked towards the limo Audrey had booked, "I try to be everything my father isn't. The only thing he's optimistic about is when he can finally get back up to Olympus and rub it in that he got out without trying to do something. He really wants to rub it in their faces."
Audrey raised an eyebrow, "He'll be waiting for years then, the barrier isn't coming down any time soon."
Heidi let Audrey get in first before getting in herself, "Maybe, maybe not. We cannot predict the future." She said as the driver closed the door for her.
"...And to think I missed that." Audrey muttered, shaking her head as she looked out the window.
The car began moving as Heidi smirked, "Missed what?"
"You know, that philosophical stuff you always threw at me? That's what." Audrey replied, looking back at the bluenette.
"Ah, thought so." She chuckled, "You're the first to say that you've missed that quirk of mine. My dad certainly didn't miss it." Heidi pulled her braid out from behind her.
Audrey paused as she looked down at her hands, "It was certainly quiet in the dorm." She said softly.
Heidi frowned and held her hands, "I know, and I'm sorry. Though, I do have one question."
"What?" Audrey asked as Heidi looked her in the eyes, Why is she looking at me like that?
"Why did you stay in the two-person dorm, you could have easily found a place for yourself off campus."
Audrey froze at that question before slowly nodding, "I did it because…" She paused, looking away towards the window, "I didn't want you to have nowhere to go if you ever came back."
Heidi blinked, she hadn't been expecting that answer. She suspected Audrey kept the same dorm so she could find her easier, not so that she could have a place to come back to.
The goddess slowly pulled Audrey into a soft hug, "You didn't have to do that, thank you." She whispered, closing her eyes as Audrey hugged back. I knew there was some good in her. Heidi thought as she pulled away.
"You're welcome…" Audrey said softly, cheeks burning brightly as the butterflies returned once again.
Heidi chuckled as she saw their destination approaching, "You ready?"
Audrey smirked, "Definitely."
The car stopped and the two got out as Heidi offered Audrey her arm, "Then let's go."
