Chapter twelve
From being rejected to being attacked by the Vks, against the Auradon teens, everything appeared to change quickly.
The event led to nasty remarks and rumors among the Auradon residents. You would have assumed that everyone would have responded humanly in the location where royalty sat, and compassion was embrace, regardless of the circumstance. Sadly, though this was not the case.
However, Amelia's thoughts were what were tormenting one person, not the awful remarks
Jay continue hearing her words over and over again in his mind. Yes, he developed an attraction to her a while back. However, the issue is that he never was good at expressing his emotions and feelings.
Being the well-known villain, Jafar's son, his father never seemed to care about how he was doing during his whole childhood and even through his teenage years, which was now. He only shared an interest when Jay returned with award that he stole, so it made sense that before he met Amelia, he was never exposed to any form of affection.
She embodied the characteristic of a sunny person; despise everything she endured with her mother and in the Isle of the Lost. She was always a devoted friend to the Vks and always show them kindness even when they didn't know what that was during that time. Jay observed that. Naturally, he did. After all, she had been the one rare light that kept him sane at his darkest moments. It was difficult for him to avoid staring at her when she shined so brightly.
As Jay contemplated what to say to Amelia as he hoped that their friendship wouldn't be ruined, he became more ill, just thinking about the situation as he stared at his room's ceiling.
While Carlos noticed Jay 's silence from across the room and began to pet Dude on his lap.
Being friends with both Amelia and Jay, Carlos knew exactly how this situation was affecting them both.
Carlos asked, worried about his best friend, " Are you okay, Jay?"
There was another moment of silence as Jay found it difficult to speak.
"I really screwed up man", Jay finally sighed out. A thought he was thinking of since his talk with Amelia. "She probably hates me by now."
"Dude cmon, You know Amelia, she could never hate you. She's just hurt you know", Carlos replied as he continued petting dude.
Jay got up from the bed as he exclaimed. "I should have said something, a simple reply at least. But no, I stood there frozen. I really screwed up man, I don't know what to do. What if she never wants to talk to me ever again?
Carlos placed Dude down as he got up from his bed. "Stop saying that Jay, it's normal to not know what to say during a certain moment but what Amelia probably wants is some space to deal with this situation. I mean, dude she loved you for so long and it's hurting her. She just needs some time to get over her feelings for you somehow"
"But what if I don't want her to lose feelings for me," Jay said quietly.
"What was that?" Carlos said, as a grin grew on his face, he heard exactly what he said.
"What if I don't want her to lose feelings for me" Jay exclaimed with arm movements.
But what he wasn't prepare for was Carlos' sudden outburst of excitement.
"YES, I KNEW IT. MAL OWES ME 20 BUCKS. IT WAS ABOUT TIME"
"What?", Jay questioned.
"Dude cmon, I've seen the way you act around her. How can I say this? Um I mean, it's different than how you are with Mal and Evie, to them you act like a brother. But with Amelia........it's way different. You have to smile and look when you look at her."
"Plus I remember this time when a girl was flirting with you but you didn't catch it because you were too busy looking at Amelia", Carlos said with a big smile on his face.
"You're right, you're right, it's different with Amelia. She always makes me feel seen....and you might be like well everyone looks at you cause you are who you are...but it's different with her. She sees me as an actual person not someone that could be used for their own benefits and she was the first person to ever show me kindness and affection , no matter what how I was feeling"
"And yes, when she confessed. I don't know....I was just so lost and didn't know what to say. I'm good at saying how I feel with her, which was easier because she brings this sort of comfort but this time it was scary. It felt like the tension was rising and having to admit romantic feelings instead. Which is a big step to me and now I completely messed up my chance with her ."
"You don't know that yet. Plus, I won't let that happen," Carlos statement as he picked up Dude while he looking at him before continuing his statement. "And we are going to help"
"We?" Jay said confused as he looked between Carlos and Dude.
