God of Love [Descendants AU]

"Come on, Finn-y, I'm dying of boredom," Eros complained as they relaxed in the girls' room after school the next day. "You know what I miss?"

"Enlighten us, Eros," Hugo said boredly, not looking up from his textbook.

"Robbing people blind while Finn pretends to read their future. And look where we are. In the land of rich kids, we're just sitting around in our free time, waiting to get out of here?"

Esme laughed wildly at nothing in particular.

"Yet another bad idea, Eros. Is anyone surprised?" Finn said. "We are laying low because we are plotting the biggest robbery this rinky-dink kingdom has ever seen. We are quite literally plotting world domination and you wanna put more eyes on us by robbing citizens."

"The opposite, my lovely voodoo friend," Eros said with a wink. That earned him a roll of the eyes from Finn and Hugo while Esme giggled again. "We have assimilated too much. We're out of practice. You expect to steal Fairy Godmother's wand after months of no criminal activity? Come on, now."

"We broke into the museum like two months ago," Hugo pointed out.

"This is not exactly a stealth mission, Eros," Finn said. "I'm pretty sure people will notice when I snatch that shit from Fairy Godmother's hand, they just won't dare contradict me with that powerful an object in my hand. Then, we bring in the 'rents and they handle it from there."

"Fine! Then it'll be fun! How's that for a reason," Eros said.

The three fell silent. It was a strong argument.

Finn sat at the tarot card table filing her nails while the group of four waited for their next victim. There was already a solid stash underneath the table, but they were sure they could lure in a few more students based on sheer curiosity.

"So what exactly are we waiting on to continue this... plan of ours," Hugo questioned vaguely, purposefully avoiding sensitive topics in the crowded courtyard.

"I found a book," Finn said. "We'll head down to the kitchens tonight and make the... cookies. Then, we'll find a moment when the target is in place and we'll strike while the iron is hot."

"Speaking of the target," Eros smirked as the prince's gaze landed on the table from afar.

Benny's eyes narrowed on Finn and she shrugged innocently. He shook his head and began his way through the crowd, towards the table. "Leave us. I don't see stealing from the prince of Auradon ending well for us," Finn instructed the group.

Eros threw one arm over each of his friends' shoulders and led them away from the booth. The prince glanced after them before taking a seat in front of the dark-skinned girl. "Scared they'll find out we're friends?"
