《Harry Hook X Reader X Carlos De Vil》Chapter 22
Advertisement
I was sitting on my bed with Dude, contemplating whether I'm going to explain what happened or just tell the truth to (Y/N).
"You shouldn't have made her mad, she trusts you with all of her heart! You broke the innocent girl's heart because of something--"
"I know, I know... It's just that... How can I explain this?" I cut the talking dog off and stared at the floor.
"You could always apologize to her, maybe she might forgive you!"
My eyes widened at Dude's suggestion and looked at him.
"You're right, Dude! I'm gonna go and ask her to the cotillion as an apology!"
And with that, I stood up and went for the door.
"Oh boy..."
I heard Dude say behind me.
I was about to open the door but it suddenly opened, revealing Ben and Evie.
"What's up guys?"
I smiled at them, but the both of them just gave me a frown.
"What's wrong? What's with the long faces?" I asked them, concerned for my friends.
They looked at eachother then back at me before giving me something.
"It's a letter from (Y/N). Faith gave it to us just after I went to Ben's office." Evie said, making me quickly grab the letter.
It reads: ""
I can't believe it, she left me here...
What did she mean by bringing back what memories?
Does she have a past with the Isle?
If so, why didn't she tell me?
Questions kept coming in my mind, questions that wanted to be answered.
"Don't worry, Carlos."
My trance was broken when I heard Ben speak.
"Tonight, we'll be going to the Isle to bring them back."
I nodded and they walked out of the room while I went to prepare.
"Can I come?" Dude asked from my bed.
"No, Dude. Stay!" I replied, not looking at the talking dog.
"It's (Y/N)! She's my master too!" He begged.
I looked over and saw that he gave me his infamous puppy eyes.
I shook my head and continued to change.
"No, I'm not her. So don't give me that look, I need you to stay here for (Y/N). Okay?"

"You're no fun." Dude said as he lied down on the bed.
Don't worry, (Y/N). We'll get you and Mal...
~~~
Mal and I went to Lady Tremaine's Curl Up and Dye to get new hairstyles.
"The sign says it's closed until midnight." I read the sign at the shop door.
"It's okay, she knows me." Mal said, opening the door.
I just nodded and followed inside, we looked behind the plastic curtains and I saw a little girl sweeping the floor.
"Mal!"
The little girl finally noticed us and took off her head phones.
"Is Evie back too?"
So she's an Evie fan, huh?
Mal laughed, "As if."
The little girl's smile disappeared as it turned into a frown.
"I, um, forgot that you guys don't open til midnight." Mal said as she walked inside.
I looked around and saw that there were so much color around the room, unlike outside.
"This place looks cool." I said as I looked back at the little girl, earning a smile from her.
"So what is your deal? Has your grandmother given you any customers yet?" Mal asked as she walked around.
She's Lady Tremaine's granddaughter?? Whose daughter?
"Just a witch here and there. Mostly a lot of scrubbing, scouring, and sweeping. Lots and lots of sweeping."
The little girl gestured to the broom in her hands.
"Sounds like the old Cinderella treatment." I said, adjusting the bag on my shoulder.
"Yeah! She's gone from wicked stepmother to wicked grandmother." The little girl replied, staring at the ceiling.
"Well that's not really much of a switch." Mal said, her eyes widening in realization.
"I almost forgot. This is (Y/N), daughter of Peter Pan. (Y/N), this is Dizzy. Daughter of Drizella." Mal introduced, throwing me a smile my way.
I waved as Dizzy gave me a surprised face.
"No way! So you can fly too?"
I laughed at her reaction, kinda like Carlos' when we first met.
"Only when I have my pixie dust."
I gestured to the bag slung on my shoulder.
"Hey, Dizzy. You used to do Evie, right?" Mal asked, turning to her.

"Yeah! I thought of the little braids." She smiled at us proudly, making me smile warmly.
"You have any ideas for us?" I asked, pointing to me and Mal.
She raised her finger and used it as some kind of tool, she then walked towards Mal.
"The washed out blonde with purple tips? The best of no worlds. You can't see where your face ends and your hair begins." Dizzy said, making the both of us laugh.
She then turned to me.
"The colors don't blend well, the turquoise and light brown doesn't match with your face."
Dizzy dragged us towards the chairs.
She first fixed mine and while I was under the hood dryers then she went to fix Mal's.
It took long but it was worth it.
I looked in the mirror and admired Dizzy's work.
"Hey, there I am!"
I heard Mal said beside me.
"Voila!"
I looked at Dizzy to see her have a smile.
I then went to the counter and leaned on it.
Mal took out money from her pocket and gave it to Dizzy.
"For me?" She looked at Mal in disbelief.
Looks like she doesn't get money that many.
"You earned it." Mal smiled at Dizzy as she walked towards the cashier.
"Fork it over, you runt."
I heard a very familiar accented voice from the entrance to see the pirate I came back for.
I slightly glared at his figure as Dizzy gave the money that Mal gave to her.
"And the rest of it."
I walked behind him with my arms crossed.
"Thank you!" Harry said once Dizzy gave him what was in the cashier and noticed Mal standing from her spot.
"Still running errands for Uma? Or do you actually get to keep what you steal?" Mal asked, chewing on some gum.
"Well, well, well. What a nice surprise!"
Harry fully turned to her and slowly walked towards her.
"Hi Harry." Mal greeted once he was now infront of her, still not noticing me.
"Just wait until Uma hears you're back!"
He scanned Mal from head to toe.
"She's never gonna give you back your old territory."
"Oh, well that's okay. Because I will be taking it." Mal remarked, making Harry laugh.
He brushed Mal's hair with his hook, kinda making me jealous.
Still the flirtatious type I see.
"I could hurt you..." Harry trailed off but was cut off by Mal grabbing his hook and pushing it back towards him.
"Not without a permission I bet." I spoke, making them look at me.
Harry tensed, slowly walking towards me.
"Two surprises in one night!"
He cupped my cheek with his right hand but I didn't reacted because Mal's here and doesn't know our history.
He smirked.
"Back with the short hair I see, fish bait."
I fought the urge to smile at the old nickname and grabbed the money from his pocket.
He gave me a confused look before I gave Dizzy back the money, and gave him all my money.
He laughed.
"Like old time's sake, huh love?"
I rolled my eyes.
"Just get back to that captain of yours and leave Dizzy alone." I said, making Harry frown at the mention of Uma from me.
I looked away when Harry leaned his face close to my ear and whispered, "Meet me at our place later."
And with that, he left after knocking some stuff from the counter.
I glanced at Mal who was giving me a confused look.
"Mind telling me the chemistry you were having?"
I felt a blush come up but quickly fought it.
I shrugged, "Long story."
"Great more sweeping." Dizzy complained, making me look at her.
"I'll help you later."
She gave me a smile and nodded.
I then looked back at Mal with a smile on her face.
"And with that, how about you tell me about your and Harry's past?"
I sighed and nodded in defeat, smiling at her.
This is gonna be a long night.
