A/N: It may sound like it's Angsty but it's not trust me. Also this is my first fanfic for the descendants fandom, hope you like it!

Evie's P.O.V

Of course I left all of this sewing to do the week before cotillion. Evie thought to herself as she sat at her sewing machine working on her second dress of twelve for the day. Evie was working on the sleeves of the dress when the sewing machine stopped. It just stopped.

Evie let go of the dress and looked at the machine. Why are you like this? She got up and looked all over the machine to find the problem.

After five minutes of looking, Evie didn't find any problem. It was plugged into the wall, the tread wasn't jammed anywhere, everything was plugged in properly. Evie threw herself on to her bed and looked up at the ceiling. She put the heels of her palms on her eyes and let out a frustrated sigh. My sewing machine just burned out, I still have eleven dresses to go, and it's, Evie looked over at the clock on her night stand and let out another frustrated sigh 11:39am! I started working at six last night! Evie dropped her hands on to the bed and looked up at the ceiling again.

At this rate, I'll get the dresses done in a month! And that was the last thought Evie had before she fell asleep.

Carlos P.O.V.

"Come on, Jay! If your gonna play video games while I'm studying, at least turn the volume down! Some of us are trying to not fail!" Carlos yelled as he sat up on his bed and looked over at Jay who was playing his video game on the highest volume. Carlos watched Jay for a minute for a answer.

He didn't get one, Jay was so into his game that he didn't hear Carols. Carlos sighed as he grabbed his books. Of course, as I'm trying to study he plays video games. I'll just study in the girls room for the night. Carlos thought as he closed his door and walked the whole two feet to the girls dorm. I wonder if the girls could hear Jay? Do they sound proof the rooms?

Carlos knocked at the door waiting for an answer. After no response he knocked again. Still no response. Carlos sighed as he yelled just loud enough for them to hear, "Guys! It's me! I'm coming in!" He opened the door and started to apologize, "Sorry for coming in here guys, but Jay was being a douche and..." Carlos died off as he looked at Evie.

Evie was laying on her bed facing upward, her one hand was on her stomach and the other was above her head. Her hair was sprawled out all around her. She looked peaceful. Carlos chuckled as he saw that she was still in the clothes she was wearing last night.

Carlos set his books on the table next to Evie's sewing machine, when he notices it, the outlet is burned out. He unplugs the sewing machine and looks at all of Evie's sewing stuff spread around it. The sketchbook with half baked ideas, the thimble, pins everywhere, fabric all around, and countless more sewing stuff he can't name.

He looks back at Evie then at the mess again, connecting the pieces. You gotta stop burning yourself out like this E. Carlos goes and grabs the blanket from Mal's bed and covers Evie with it. Carlos, as quietly as he can, exits the room and goes and ponders on what to do. He goes to his room to talk to Jay about it.

Carlos enters the room to see that Jay is still playing the same video games as he was before he left. Carlos sighs and walks over to Jay, and sits next to him on the couch. "I need your help." Carlos says hoping to get Jay's attention. "Yeah, can it wait until after this level?" Jay asked not really paying attention to his boyfriend.

Carlos sighed again as he realized that Jay was only half listening. "Well, I don't know it's pretty urgent matter..." Carlos said. "Is it now?" Jay asked raising an eyebrow still not looking at Carlos. "It's Evie, she passed out and I don't know what to do." Carlos mumbled back. The words 'Game Over' appeared on the screen as Jay turned to face Carlos.

"I would get Mal, because she's dealt with this before." Jay said seriously. "Thanks, Jay!" Carlos said as he kissed Jay on the cheek and got up to leave.

Jay ran after Carlos and placed a hand on his shoulder and spun him around. "You missed." Jay said as he leaned in to steal a kiss, but Carlos had other plans as he slid out of Jay's grasp. Jay had a 'wtf' look on his face with his arms open wide watching Carlos open the door. Carlos saw this and smirked.

"I have to get Mal, and plus you were being a douche." Carlos stated and closed the door not waiting for Jay to respond.

Carlos found Mal reading her spell book under a tree. "Mal!" Carlos called out to her. Mal's head shot up at the sound of her name being called. She turned pale when she saw Carlos. "It's Evie, I found her passed out and-" and Mal was already up and gathering her things.

"How long Carlos?!" Mal shouted as she ran towards Carlos, grabbing his shoulders trying to get a handle on the situation. "I don't know! I found her passed only a couple of minutes ago and Jay said to come and get you!" Carlos yelled back, raising his hands up in a non threatening position.

Mal nodded and ran towards, Mals and Evie's dorm, leaving Carlos behind.

Mal P.O.V

Of course she did this now. Mal thought as she got to the door. She took a minute to compose herself, preparing herself for the worse. Mall opened up her door slowly looking at the damage. Evie sleeping on her bed, curled up with Mal's covers, Carlos's book's next to Evie's mess of sewing stuff, and the half baked projects everywhere.

Mal looked over at Evie remembering when this happened on the Isle. She would disappear for hours sometimes days at a time, engrossing herself in projects forgetting basic human needs like sleep or food.

Mal sat next to Evie running her fingers through her hair. Evie stirred at this. She rolled over facing Mal trying to wack her hand away. Mal laughed at Evie's sleep ta-ticks, waking up Evie fully.

"Hey," Mal whispered as Evie got a bearing of her surroundings, snuggling into Mal's blanket. "Comfy, leave me peasant." Evie mumbled trying to go back to sleep. Mal laughed again as Evie rolled over.

Mal slowly lifted up the covers and cuddled with Evie. Evie rolled over and snuggled into Mal's chest, wrapping her arms around Mal's waist. Mal blushed at this, but it quickly wore off as she wrapped her arms around Evie, bringing her closer.

Mal slowly drifted off to sleep with Evie leaving the problem of sewing to when they woke up.
