I'm sorry I abandoned this story for so long. However, because of Descendants 2, I have the strive to write it again. After this chapter I think there will be one or two more chapters and then it'll be complete!


Jay briskly walked out into the hallway, going to Evie's and Mal's dorm. He tried to regain his composure as he walked as fast as his legs would carry him. Once he reached their room, he roughly opened the door and entered in the room without saying a word. Mal who was sitting on the chair reading, looked up at Jay with confusion.

"What's your problem?" She asked with a little laugh; he only glared at her.

"Is it about him?" Asked Evie who was now in front of Jay; she always seemed to know what the problem was. Jay answered with a simple glare. "So that's a yes.." She added pouting a bit by Jay's hostility.

"Mind telling us what happened ?" Questioned Mal, putting her book on the table, feeling a bit concerned. Truthfully, she was hoping this drama between the two of them would end soon.

Jay shook his head while pressing his fists together. "He told me the truth and I forgave him, now our fake arrangement is over." Jay said, his voice was filled with disappointment.

"You see, we told you! Everything is alright now Jay!" Claimed Mal smiling, but Jay was frowning. "I mean, I know you don't think it is, but Jay…" Mal hadn't meant to sound so uncaring. She also didn't expect Jay to develop these type of feelings. He had never been the type to feel this way about someone. Jay just looked away. "Jay…" Evie couldn't say anything, she had run out of ideas and she didn't want to say something wrong.

"Jay.." Mal patted his shoulder, "It was all fake, remember? It's probably in you two's best interest to end it. I mean, it would never last long, and I don't mean that rudely. It's just your two personalities clash so heavily and all you ever do is argue and then make out, and then argue again! So, don't be frustrated over it, you two are right to not enter a relationship that would risk your friendship if something bad were to happen." Jay glared again and his sad expression only grew bigger.

"I know ... but..we could have tried ..?" He said feeling numb by everything that was happening. "And it wasn't all fake, Mal. We all know that." He didn't know what he was supposed to feel. He should've been happy that all this chaos and drama was coming to an end, but he couldn't help but feel angry and sad and every other emotion except for happiness.

"Ok, yeah, it obviously stopped being fake a while ago, but I still don't think it'll work. I don't think you two would've been able to handle an ideal relationship. I mean, with all the flirting with girls, and for Carlos and all the insults from the others students. It seems like too much struggle to try to attempt. You two can't help but complicate things, so surely you'd complicate your relationship. You already tried, and we can see it didn't end up well. Why would you want to try it again?" Mal didn't mean to sound like a pessimist, but it was hard not to be one with the way she was raised and with the way Jay and Carlos had been acting for the past weeks. She was already sad and stressed out enough for her two friends and she didn't want anything else bad to happen.

"Okay, no," Evie interjected, scoffing heavily. "Mal, stop talking. Jay, stop listening to her."

"Evie!" Mal shouted, looking at her incredulously. Of course, Evie would be the one to still try to make Carlos and Jay happen.

"Seriously, you and Carlos seem to like each other a lot." Jay nodded at this. Evie smiled. "Okay, see great! So, try it. Wipe the slate clean and start the relationship as if you guys have never kissed, or touched, or anything. Leave the lies behind you. And yeah it's going to be a struggle, especially handling the way you flirt so much —"

"Hey, I—" Jay interjected quickly.

"Yeah you flirt a lot, Jay. Don't interrupt me. Anyways, as I was saying, it'll be a bit of a struggle with your two personalities but you two can figure it out. Every relationship has its struggles. It's not going to be perfect, you just have to want to work for it." Evie squeezed Jay's arm lightly, smiling. "And Mal needs to stop talking because she gives horrible advice."

"I do not!" Evie rolled her eyes at her friends' outburst.

"Well Jay?"

Jay rubbed his hand over his face and groaned loudly. "That was beautiful, Evie, really. But I still don't know if I want to work that much to be in a relationship with Carlos. It's been really hard the past few weeks."

"Okay, then I don't know what to tell you! You're a mess, Jay. Ok, you know what, I'm gonna go talk to Carlos," Evie said, pushing Jay slightly as she spun around to dash for the door.

"What? No, don't—" Jay reached out in a poor attempt to stop her, but by the time he had worked up the energy to move his body to the other side of the room, Evie was already gone.

Mal looked at the door and then back at Jay, looking extremely bored. "Sooo, are you going to go stop her?"

Jay was quiet for a moment and then a quick, "Nope."


Carlos had finally regained his composure after getting out a good cry, and a few screams. This whole thing was stupid and he should've never asked Jay to do it. But, if Jay wanted to move on to other people, then Carlos would follow suit. There were tons of guys—okay maybe not tons, but there were at least three— who had asked him on occasion if he wanted to hook up or go on a date. He didn't need Jay or the complications that came with him. With this thought, his fingers played with the rope of the necklace Jay had given him and he ripped it off carefully, and placed it down. He left the one from Jane on, cause y'know, gotta make a statement. Plus, Jane hadn't wronged him so he didn't want to be rude and take it off.

Right after Carlos placed the necklace down, he was startled as his door slammed open and a dash of blue came bounding inside.

"Hello my stupid stupid best friend." Evie practically tackled Carlos into a hug and then quickly pulled away, placing her hands on his shoulders as she stared at him intently.

Carlos chuckled nervously. "Uh hi, and why am I stupid, exactly?" Evie lowered her eyes at him, as if to tell him, "you know what I'm talking about". Carlos stared at her back, latching onto one of her arms as he swayed awkwardly. "So are you gonna tell me or are we just gonna stand here staring at each other in silence?"

"Oh, right! So I heard that you and Jay decided to call off the fake relationship and not pursue a real one!" Evie's voice raised as her sentence went on, and she used her hand that was already placed on his shoulder, to push him away roughly. He stumbled back as his eyes went wide.

"Jay already told you? It's only been like an hour!"

"Yeah, that should show you how upset he is about this!" Evie followed as Carlos sat down on his bed, promptly playing with the bed sheets.

"Yeah, well just because we're both upset doesn't mean it wasn't for the best. We came to an agreement. We're ending it," Carlos paused for a moment, as if contemplating something, "For now, anyways."

"For now?" Evie asked hopeful. Carlos continued to play with the sheets as he spoke.

"Yeah, I mean, we should call it off, but who knows, maybe in a few months we can try again and it'll be better." A small smile formed on his face and Evie squealed in delight.

"Seriously? Oh that's so great! At least one of you have some sense in you!" Carlos couldn't help but laugh as Evie engulfed him in a huge side hug


Mal had hated eating in the school cafeteria at first. It made her sick to realize that while they were getting scraps on the Isle and struggling to find food, the 'good kids' were getting to eat these huge heaps of food. In her opinion, there was just too much food here in Auradon. She'd eat her food and then realize that what was left on her plate or what was left in the little buckets in the food line was going to get sent to the Isle. In an odd way eating in the cafeteria continued the small inkling of hate she had for Auradon. Plus, it was way too loud and everyone was always so happy.

However, it seemed to be the only time she could sit down with all her friends and have a decent conversation.

As if on cue, Evie and Carlos walked over to the table, food in hand. "I'm still not used to eating all this food," Carlos grumbled as he placed his plate on the table and sat next to Mal.

"Are you seriously complaining about the fact that we now have food?" Evie laughed as she sat across from Mal and Carlos.

"No, it's just weird. I mean, a good weird, but still weird," Carlos mumbled as he grabbed a fry. Before anyone could agree or disagree, Jay came over and took his usual spot next to Evie.

"What's weird?" He asked as he snatched a fry off of Carlos' plate and threw it into his mouth. Mal and Evie tensed slightly as they eyed the two, curious as to what was going to happen since they had been split for just a few days.

"You," Carlos retorted as he smacked Jay's hand away as he tried to steal another fry. "These are mine." Mal had expected an edge of hostility in his voice, but there was none. She wasn't positive, but she almost thought there was a playfulness in Carlos' tone.

"Haha," Jay mocked, smiling. "Seriously, though, what were you guys talking about?"

Evie continued to eye the two carefully, confused on their current status. Did the two hate each other or not? She wasn't sure how to handle this conversation.

"Carlos thinks it's weird that we get to eat all this food every day," Mal responded as she then too took a fry from Carlos' plate. Carlos glared, but didn't stop her.

"Oh, I guess," Jay shrugged his shoulders.

"I guess," Carlos mocked, in a low, annoying voice. He tried not to laugh, but a small smile managed to sneak through. Jay eyed him carefully, slightly smiling back.

"Oh we're doing this now, are we?" Jay leaned his body onto the table slightly, and Evie gazed at him before looking at Mal. "What are they doing?" She mouthed to Mal. Mal shrugged, eyes widening.

"I don't know what you're talking about," Carlos grinned, leaning his chair away as Jay seemed to lean closer onto the table.

"Isn't it weird that we have all this food now?" Jay mocked, laughing, accidentally pushing the table forward.

Carlos' mouth dropped for a split second before he laughed as he practically threw his body across the table. He jokingly punched Jay on his arm; then kicking him slightly on his leg. "Don't mock me!"

"Don't mock me!" Jay retorted, pushing the table again as he tried to get his feet to kick Carlos and not just the air. Carlos laughed as he pulled at the table and tried to push it up against Jay so Carlos could have better leverage of not getting hit. The table was screeching as it scraped against the floor and their food slid on the surface. Evie grabbed at her plate, scowling.

"Ow!" Mal glared as she jumped away from Jay's foot which had just slammed into her shin. Jay looks up at this, ready to apologize.

"Boys!" Evie scolded, "I'm trying to eat here!" Both boys stop immediately, looking up at their exasperated blue haired friend.

"Oh of course, m'lade" Jay chuckled, pushing Carlos one last time. Carlos would've kicked him back if Mal hadn't glared at him, seemingly knowing that he was about to try something.

"Eat your food!" Mal snapped, sliding Carlos his plate which had managed to get pushed to the end of the table from their little fight. Carlos grumbled in reply, but ate nonetheless. They continued to eat as they discussed their week. Jay mainly talked about workouts and practice and Evie berated Mal for not studying enough for their upcoming math test.

"I so won that," Carlos spoke up, randomly, after Evie had finished inspecting his arms for any bruising.

Jay looked up and stopped talking mid-sentence to Mal. "Oh yeah?" He smirked as he grabbed a handful of Carlos' fries and shoved them into his mouth. Mal slapped Jay on the arm for trying to start up another 'cute argument'. "Are you sure about that?"

Carlos slammed his hands onto the table and pouted slightly. "Stop stealing my fries! They're mine! Literally all of you have stolen my fries. I got them for myself, over there," He pointed dramatically," So, if you want some, you should go get them, from over there!"

"C, they were all out," Jay said, continuing to eat the handful of fries he had grabbed.

Carlos deadpanned. "Oh, then here," He divided up the rest of his fries and gave them to Jay. "For you, then, I guess."

Mal stared at the two in awe and confusion with both eyebrows furrowed. "What the heck is going on."

"This is weird," Evie agreed. "Aren't you two, supposed to be like, mad at each other?"

Both boys glanced at one another before looking at the two girls. "Nope."

"Okay.."Mal muttered. "Anyways, Carlos, you wanna help me with this math stuff?"

"Like right now?" Carlos asked.

"Well considering our math test is in like two hours, yeah, right now." Mal drawled out, resting her chin on the top of her hand, elbow on table.

"Sure," He responded, but then stopped. "Wait, what time is it?"

Evie and Jay both looked around the cafeteria for the clock. "twelve twenty one," Jay responded dully.

Carlos' eyes went wide as he practically leapt from his seat. "Crap, I have to go tutor somebody in like ten minutes." He gathered his things quickly, swinging his backpack on roughly. "Sorry Mal?"

"Yeah, yeah," Mal muttered. Carlos seemed to be pacing in place, not quite sure if he could leave Mal. "It's okay, Evie can help me."

"Okay, great!" Carlos smiled, and then skidded off giddily. Mal lowered her eyes and the three of them watched as he nearly ran into somebody and then dashed to the entrance.

"So are you and him okay?" Evie asked as they continued to watch Carlos.

"Yeah! We're fine. We've come to an agreement and we're happy. It's all worked out." Jay responded with a smile.

Carlos' departure was cut short when a guy with dark skin and wavy, shoulder length hair walked in. This peaked Evie and Jay's interest as they both sat straighter and watched the exchange. The guy pushed some of his hair behind his ear, and Carlos laughed. And suddenly, without any warning Carlos tilts his head and lays a quick kiss on the guys lips. They then grab hands and walk out of the cafeteria.

The tension around the table was noticeable, and the three went quiet in utter disbelief. They had so many things to blurt out at once, but they couldn't get them out because they were so shocked...confused.

"Woah," Evie gasped, eyes widening.

"Well that was quick…." Mal mumbled, slightly shocked. She didn't want to look in Jay's direction. The moment the two boys had latched hands, she could practically feel Jay tense up.

"Is that…" Jay strained his eyes as he tried to keep his voice steady. "Oh you've got to be kidding me. Freaking Aziz?"

"Aziz as in son of Jasmine and Aladdin?" Mal practically shouted, extremely shocked now. How in the world did this happen? And why would Carlos think it was a good idea!

"Yep, that'd be the one," Jay stated sharply.

"You still fine?" Evie murmurs, her eyes still lingering where Carlos and Aziz had been standing.

"Y'know, that doesn't really matter. If Carlos is happy, then that's enough for me." Jay shrugged, returning his gaze back to his lunch.

"Yeah," Mal mocked, "Okay."
