Forever DeVil

🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾

         Cruella DeVil had died. When King Ben heard the news, he asked his parents their thoughts on having a memorial for her, but his parents scoffed at the thought. "Cruella was a villain!", they had said, but Ben replied, "She's also the mother of a friend! Mom, Dad! I'm going to pay my respects to Carlos and Cruella, whether you approve it or not! I am king!", exclaimed Ben, walking away.
          Ever since Uma had told him about himself and showed him the error of his ways, all Ben wanted to do was make things between the Isle and Auradon right. He would do what he could to make his young friend comfortable, and take him away from the misery he lived in.

      Luna had stayed with Carlos all night, holding him in her arms as he cried, the finality of his mother's passing dawning on him. Carlos held onto Luna tightly, his head on her lap as they sat on his bed. All night long he wept, thinking of all the cruel, mean things his mother was. Luna would rub his back tenderly and pass her fingers through his hair, trying to comfort him.
     Luna hummed a tune Tiger Lily used to sing to her when she was a child, lulling Carlos into a sense of calm. He soon fell asleep, his sweet face that of an angel's. Luna looked down on him, admiring his long eyelashes and the curl of his lips. She bent down and kissed him on the cheek, whispering "Goodnight, Carlos", before closing her own eyes.
      When Luna awoke the next morning, she was confused at first, but then quickly remembered where she was as the comforting feeling of Carlos's arms around her brought her back. Luna looked at Carlos and thought he was adorable with his cute mouth opened slightly, his breathing coming out as snores. When he woke up, Carlos looked at Luna, then quickly hugged her to him, remembering that his mother was gone.
      Carlos cried most of that morning, embarrassed at times, because he didn't want Luna to think he wasn't a man, but Luna would encourage him to release his emotions, telling him that it was okay. When some of Cruella's family members started  arriving, Luna told Carlos she would leave to try and make some money, then come back to him, later. "I'll even bring you back some chocolate!", said Luna. "You promise?", asked Carlos, his sadness hurting Luna's heart.
     "I swear!", replied Luna, putting her hand over his heart. Carlos placed his hand upon hers, then brought it to his lips, kissing it. Luna pulled him close and placed a tender kiss upon his lips, then took her leave. "I promise I'll come back!", said Luna, her eyes serious. Carlos smiled meekly, hoping time would fly.

       On her way back to Lady Tremaine's, Luna felt someone watching her. She turned around to see Jax, son of Captain Jack Sparrow. "Good day, Luna!", he exclaimed, bowing low before her. Luna reciprocated, telling him hello, eyeing the dreadfully handsome young pirate rogue warily. She clenched her satchel closely to her bosom, not sure what Jax would do.
      Jax saw Luna's unsurety, and smiled, showing a gold crown, just like his father's. "No alarm, love! No harm! There's no need to cover up such a beautiful bosom!", said Jax, eyeing Luna as if seeing her for the first time. Luna couldn't help her beauty; her mother Tiger Lily had been stunning.
      Jax smiled again, tilting his head. "Ah!", he said, "So Hook's son has finally done something right! Capturing such a beauty as you! No wonder that arrogant ass Pan has been seen flying about! It's been the talk of the isle! The great Peter Pan, come to bring his love back!" Luna looked at Jax, then said, "Believe me, I have no intentions of leaving the Isle!"
       Jax cracked another smile, resembling his gorgeous, bad boy father. "That is good to know! I would hate to not be able to see your lovely visage on the Isle!", said Jax, smiling.
