Here's another Carvie cause I ship them so much!
WARNING: High levels of cliche-ness, cheesiness, smiling, and an OOC Evie. I think.
In the courtyard, Carlos sat on one of the tables. He was on his laptop doing who knows what. Whether it was checking social medias or playing games, he seemed focused.
Evie spotted him and smiled, walking towards him from the back so he didn't know she was there. She leaned down to the left side of him. Carlos didn't notice her since he was too focused on his laptop.
"Cruella De Vil," Evie sang, which alarmed Carlos. "Evie," he complained as he stopped paying attention to the screen. He knew it was her by her beautiful and smooth voice. He looked to his left, but Evie had quickly moved to his right.
"Cruella De Vil," she sang again. Carlos looked to his right, but she quickly moved to his left again.
"If she doesn't scare you, no evil thing will," she continued singing, making Carlos sigh and hang his head, clearly annoyed.
"To see her is to take a sudden chill," Evie sang as her fingers traveled from his lower back up to his neck, making it seem like Carlos was getting chills.
Carlos sat up straight and felt uncomfortable in response to her actions. He tried to ignore her, but it was almost impossible since she was right by his ear.
"Cruella. Cruella," Evie sang at his left side. She moved to his right again. "She's like a spider waiting for the kill."
"Look out for Cruella De-" "Don't you dare finish those lyrics," Carlos interrupted her singing. Evie just smiled and sang, "Vil," before standing up straight.
Carlos kinda expected she was going to do that. He stood up and turned around. He saw her grinning like a little kid. "Can you please stop?" He asked.
"I already did," Evie remarked. She giggled at his annoyed face. "Oh come on, Carlos. You know you love that song," she said.
Carlos grumbled something inaudible to Evie and sat back down, continuing what he was doing on his laptop. Evie once again leaned down to his left side.
"At first you think Cruella is a devil," she sang. She moved to his right, smiling when imagining his face as she did this.
"But after time has worn away the shock," Evie continued singing. She moved back to his left and sang, "You come to realize, you've seen her kind of eyes."
Once again, she moved to his right. "Watching you from underneath a rock," her moving back and forth in a teasing way made Carlos lose it.
"That's it," he said. He stood up. Evie heard him and ran away, smiling. Carlos chased after her.
She ran around the courtyard with Carlos not too far behind. Evie occasionally looked back at Carlos. As they ran they passed Mal and Ben. Mal just shrugged them off while Ben had a weirded out face. Carlos was fast. Evie's legs could only take her so far. She ran as fast as she could to the nearest tree. When she got behind it, she looked back and didn't see Carlos.
Evie sighed and tried to catch her breath. Her head turned to the other side and there was Carlos. She yelped, but before she could run away again, Carlos grabbed her arm. Evie was stopped and she looked back at him.
"Forget it. I'm too fast for you," Carlos said before he let go of her arm. Evie sighed and a small smile grew on her face.
"So what's with the singing?" Carlos asked with his arms crossed. "No... specific reason. I just wanted to bother you," Evie answered innocently.
"Why couldn't you go bother someone else?" Carlos asked. He actually kinda liked that Evie bothers him. That way, she's always around him. But yet he asked that.
"Well Mal would kill me, Jay would also kill me, and I don't think our Auradonian friends would like that," Evie explained. "Besides, I like you the most," she added, smiling bigger.
Carlos didn't know if that meant she like liked him or if she just means he wouldn't kill her when she bothered him. He just smiled at the compliment anyway. At least, he thought it was a compliment.
Evie took a step closer to him. Carlos' arms dropped from his chest. Their faces were inches away from each other. "Carlos?" Evie asked in a soft voice. "Yeah?" Carlos asked as his heart began to pound harder.
Evie didn't talk for a few seconds. She and Carlos stared at each other during that time. "You're it!" Evie shouted as she poked Carlos' shoulder.
She ran away leaving Carlos in a dazed expression. He snapped out of it and chased after her, surprised at her childish behavior. Evie ran into the hallway leading to their dorms rooms. She raced to her dorm and opened it. Carlos was close behind and he ran into her dorm room, closing it.
He ran to the other side of the room where Evie was standing. Carlos touched her shoulder and said, "Game over."
Evie smiled when he did that. She sighed. "Can we talk about something?" she asked. She was starting to get serious now.
A part of Carlos began to worry. "Yeah. Anything," he answered despite his anxiousness. Evie glanced quickly at the ground before staring back at Carlos.
"I know we've been best friends since... forever, and over time... I've developed some... feelings," she explained. Carlos' heart began beating harder again. Was he hearing what he thought he was hearing?
Evie's heart was quickening its pace. She opened her mouth to say something. "I-I love you," she said timidly. A small hopeful smile appeared on her face.
Carlos was shocked of course. Apparently his dreams had come true. He always thought of Evie as more than a friend and now she admitted she thought the same. His face was frozen with the same eye widened look. Evie's smile faded and she began to get anxious. She had thought he didn't feel the same about her. She looked away from him in sadness.
"T-This was a mistake. I'm-" Evie was cut off by Carlos putting his hand under her chin and made her face him again. He pulled her in close and their lips touched.
It was now Evie's turn to be shocked. Her eyes widened for a second, but she soon began to melt into the kiss. Her arms didn't know what to do so they floated for a while. Then she wrapped them around Carlos. After several seconds, Carlos broke the kiss. He took his hand away from Evie's chin and wrapped his arms around her.
Evie's eyes slowly fluttered open. She was still dazed by the unexpected kiss. Carlos was smiling at her. "I love you, too," he said, bringing butterflies to Evie's stomach.
A small smile formed on her face. She leaned down and rested her head on Carlos' shoulder. She sighed happily. Carlos smiled even more. He had quickly forgotten he left his laptop out in the courtyard. Whatever. It can wait.
