the pirate and the pup - a descendants fanfiction

chapter 13.

*flashback*

"Carlos! Be a dear and steal me dinner would you?" Cruella ordered her son, a cigarette waving around in her hand.

Carlos groaned and agreed, not wanting not be beaten. He walked out of the rundown building, unaware of who's on their way.

"Alright you Mutt! Where's my Spell Book?!" Maleficent bursted through the door with Jay and Mal following her.

"I have no idea! Are you accusing me of stealing it?" Cruella Put her hand to her chest.

"Quit lying! I know you have it!" She yelled in the other women's face, holding her scepter close.

"I do not have it!" She stood up backing away.

"Give me it or so Help me!" Maleficent kept walking towards Cruella.

Cruella still stood her ground. Yelling that she doesnt have the book.

"Alright fine. Bye bye." She tapped her Scepter against the women's chest making her disappear.

"Mom! What have you done?!" Mal yelled, eyes wide.

Jay just stood there staring at the floor where Cruella once stood.

"Just taught the old hag a lesson my dear! Now quickly, we must leave before the boy comes back!" She pushed the other two out the door with a cackle.

Maleficent soon found her Spell Book. It was in the spot she left it.

She smirked to herself, "Oops, such a shame." she laughed manically.

present time, carlos' pov.

i sat in the rundown 'hospital' watching the so called nurses nervously take care of harry's wound.

'we wouldn't of had to take him here if mal wasn't such a-'

"'los?" i was interrupted of my thoughts by evie carefully sitting next to me, "come to tell me everything i've done is wrong and selfish?" i scoffed, crossing my arms.

"carlos, you know i'm not on mal's side with this.." her eyes turned soft.

"did she really kill my mother?" i mumbled, looking anywhere but the blue haired girl beside me.

"it's really not in my place to say.." evie muttered, hanging her head.

"it's my mother!" i stood up angrily.

"she's trying to protect you, 'los.. i know it doesn't seem like it but she's lost almost as much as you." evie tried to explain.

soon enough harry came back with a bandage over his stomach.

"are you okay?" i asked worried.

"ready to kill." he smiled sarcastically.

evie patted my shoulder before walking away, giving us some space to talk.

"are yer leaving?" harry looked at me once evie left.

"i have too.. 'queen's' orders." annoyance running through my voice as i called her royalty.

"m' sorry, pup, yer don't deserve any of this." harry wasn't one to apologise, but he thought now was an appropriate time to try.

"what- harry. you shouldn't be the one apologising." i carefully looked at him, my hand reaching for his arm.

"m' the one that got yer in all this mess." the pirate hung his head, "i don't deserve ya, really."

"no no no, hey," i tried to get him to look up at me, "if anything i don't deserve you. all you've done is protect and take care of me.." my voice cracked a little bit.

"mal did that fer what.. 16 years? 10 months have nothin' on that." harry mumbled.

i really couldn't believe what i was hearing, had mal gotten to harry? "where is all this coming from?.."

that's when harry finally looked up at me, tears threatening to come down his face in black dots from the eyeliner under his eyes.

my heart dropped, i quickly pulled him into a more private spot in an alley way, "you aren't saying this right? i'm just imagining it?" i tried to let a slight chuckle escape my lips but tears just brimmed at my eyes.

harry's words got stuck in his throat, i slowly brought my hand up to wipe the tears off his face.

"i think we should give this a rest."

that's where my heart snapped.
