You changed me

Chapter Text

"I have something to say!" Ben yelled, standing tall, into the microphone he had snatched from the announcer.

"Shout 'C' with me!"

Carlos suddenly didn't feel well.

"Shout 'A' with me!"

Carlos suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

The spell still works, but it's too embarrassing to misspell Mal's name, he thought.

In the next few minutes Carlos experienced the most humiliating moment of his life.Because Ben made everyone spell "carlos" and sang and danced to confess his love with the help of all the players.

Carlos didn't have time to think about how Sleeping Beauty's daughter ran away with the expression of eating a fly. He only saw the expressions of Mal and Evie standing in the audience who perfectly interpreted "Heaven and Hell in a Second".They were only surprised for a second, and then Mal leaned into Evie's ear and said something, and the two quickly changed their relaxed expressions and looked at him playfully.

And Jay's jaw dropped visibly.

When Ben was pushed in front of Carlos by a group of people, Carlos wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in, and one word kept echoing in his mind:

RIDICULOUS

Absurd, simply absurd.

"I love you, Carlos, did I mention that?" Ben stared at Carlos like a wolf at a rabbit.

“My current boyfriend is Chad! I will be attending the coronation with him, so I don’t need your invitation!”

"Would you like to join me for the coronation, Carlos?"

"What? No, I can't…" Carlos faltered as he tried to wriggle out of Ben's arms, but he soon saw Mal's bright green eyes, and his mind went blank.

"Yes!"

"He agreed!"

"No no no, I didn't mean that, it was all wrong, you should have fallen in love with Mal instead of me..." Carlos was still trying to defend himself, but he had lost the chance he never had.

"What went wrong? I remember that it was you standing in front of Ben, he should have fallen in love with you!" Carlos buried his head deeply in the quilt in the dormitory, and said in an indistinct voice.

"Maybe you were standing a little too close, and Mal's purple hair was more prominent than yours, and he saw you just when the magic was about to work," Evei speculated.

"But we were all watching him, I guarantee he was watching me," Mal retorted.

"Mal, is it possible that when you turned your head at that time, Ben followed your gaze to our side, and then like Evei said, Carlos' hair caught Ben's attention." Jay said.

"Have I ever looked back?" Mal asked, stopping to turn the page.

"You came back and gave us an 'I'm so smart' look," Evei replied.

"That is quite in line with my personality. My method is perfect for the prince who is not good at rejecting people. I knew he would eat it..."

"Hey, Mal, can we talk about how effective your method is in a moment? The first thing to do is to undo that stupid magic immediately." Carlos sat up in bed and interrupted Mal's boast.

"Release? Why should you disarm? Isn't it good now? You take the wand on the day of the coronation, Jay is responsible for picking you up after you get the wand, and I'm going to find the limo, Evei is responsible for knocking down the driver, and then We broke the barrier and ended up back on the island with the wand. Perfect plan," Mal said with a laugh.

"What! This is different from what we said before!" Carlos watched Mal crackling about the plan, and the desire to die grew stronger.

"Oh, I didn't want to be the prince's girlfriend anyway, but Evei didn't, you and Jay didn't want me to sacrifice myself. The thought of me having to date Ben before the coronation ceremony gives me goosebumps pimple."

"Great, when I'm dating Ben I can just die. But what will Ben's parents say? They won't let Ben find a boyfriend." Carlos said.

"Come on, you guys are just a couple at most, they just disagree and try to separate you, but I think they are quite enlightened, and I remember that there is a magic that can make men fertile, so they don't have to worry The next heir to the throne." Mal said with a smirk.

"Enough, don't think so far! I surrender, but you have to make sure we leave as soon as we get the wand." Knowing that Mal would not change his mind, Carlos finally compromised.

"of course."

Dude jumped on the bed and licked Carlos' hand, but Carlos didn't touch his belly this time.

That night, Carlos had a nightmare all night, and the dream was full of Benjamin smiling at him.
