Him

Chapter 4: More Confusion

{The GIF is when Carlos answers Evie's question. And Claire's tree is the 2nd in the video}

~ Claire ~

"Hey, I'm here." By now, I was already in my pajamas ready for the rest of the day to be restful. I guess not. Mal had come to my room and told me about what happened to Evie. Now we were trying to get her to wake up.

"Good. I tried doing the prince thing but it didn't work so I figured I would just need double power. Ready?"

"Yeah."

"Evie, your prince is waiting for you in this big castle of yours with mirrors, and servants, and makeup and mirrors." Evie mumbles in her sleep.

Mal exclaims, "She's waking up!"

"One more time Mal?"

"One more time Claire." As we were reciting that once again, Jay came running in with the quickness of a rabbit trying to not get caught.

"Oh, hey Claire. What are you doing here?"

"I'm helping Mal with Evie and I would like to get back to that now."

"Right. Well, when you guys get done with that, I'm gonna need to borrow Mal for a quick second."

Evie woke up saying, "My Prince!"

"Great, we got her. Now I'm just gonna continue on back to my room."

"Great. We'll see you later." Jay said. He actually smiled at me. It was a nervous smile, but a smile. Weird. But I think I do know what's gotten into him. I saw a camera in his hand... My camera. I thought Carlos threw that away years ago. I guess they do have magic on the Isle. Shoot. I left my phone in Mal's room.

"I'm SO glad they finally got their moment." I heard Evie say.

"Yeah sure, they got a moment but they look like they were both crying after and those didn't look like the happy cries I've heard about that happen in Auradon." Jay was right, they weren't.

"But why were they crying," Mal asked. I opened the door before they could say anymore about the kiss. They all turned their heads to me suspiciously when I walked into the room.

"Uh, hey guys." They all mumbled faint hey's and hi's. "I just came back to get my phone." Before I left I said, "I'm glad you're okay Evie... It must be nice to have someone who actually cares about how you feel." I only said that last part because I saw Carlos come into the door frame.

I'm too caught up in my feelings.

Claire stormed out of the room and chucked Carlos's shoulder in the process. She knows it's not his fault, and she also knows Villains aren't supposed to feel but guess what? She's not a real villain and doesn't know what else to feel.
