~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Camilo's POV:
"Camilo! Camilo! Wait up! Oops sorry Dolores- CAMILO!" I turned around to see my cousin Mirabel rushing towards me clumsily, nearly crashing into my sister.
"Someone's in a rush." I joked as she stopped in front of me, panting heavily.
"Yeah, sorry about that Dolores-." She called back to my sister, and turned back to me. "Camilo, I hear you're having a party for your sixteenth birthday?" She grinned widely.
I nodded and smiled. "You hear correctly, why?"
"Well..." She shrugged. "I was...wondering if I could bring a friend? Her name's Y/N and she's really cool."
I ran through the numbers in my head. "Mirabel- I don't really know, I mean, the more the merrier of course!" I smiled slightly. "It's just that at this point, the casita will practically overflow with people."
Mirabel's face fell in disappointment at my words, and I instantly felt bad. "Come on Camilo, you'd really like her, at least think about it?" She pleaded, and I couldn't bring myself to say no.
"Alright alright I'll think about it." I gave in. Mirabel whooped and gave me a tight hug, before running off whilst adjusting her satchel.
Y/N's POV:
"Honestly Mirabel, you don't have to- I don't mind if-." You protested as she dragged you to the Madrigal house.
However, the young Madrigal continued to lead you up the hill. "Nope, you're coming with me to Camilo's party. End of story." She turned back to you and grinned.
"Alright then." You smiled, continuing to run after her.
"CAMILO!" Mirabel yelled as you approached the house. "CAMILO! Oh! Isabela! Over here! It's me- Mirabel! ISABELA!" She yelled loudly as she caught sight of her sister crossing the courtyard.
You laughed and caught up to your friend. "Mirabel you do realise you could just...walk up to her instead of yelling her name loud enough for the whole town to hear." You joked.
She gave you a quick side grin and the two of you stopped as you approached Isabela, who was randomly producing petals out of thin air.
"So sis, you know how I'm like, your favourite sister?" Mirabel laughed. "So I was wondering if you had seen Camilo, y'know, cause I wanted to introduce him to my great friend Y/N here-." You gave Isabela a small smile as Mirabel gestured you. Isabela didn't reciprocate in any way, and just stared at you, which made you feel slightly awkward.
"And I just wondered if you knew where he was!" Mirabel finally said, clasping her hands as she looked at Isabela expectantly.
The other Madrigal nodded, and thrust her thumb behind her, as if saying that Camilo was in that direction.
Mirabel blinked. "He's over there?"
Isabela just nodded and scratched her ear. A part of you wondered why she wasn't speaking, and your imagination ran wild thinking of reasons Mirabel's sister couldn't speak. Maybe she had been stung on the tongue by a wasp and was currently on her way to see Julieta. Maybe she was trying a new meditation method that required her to be silent for the full day. Maybe she just wasn't in a chatty mood.
Mirabel just tilted her head and stared at Isabela. "Camilo, if it's you, you have three seconds to reveal yourself. 3...2..."
Isabela spun and suddenly, she was no longer there. In her place was the slightly shorter, Camilo, with a sheepish smile on his face. It was the first time you had ever taken a proper look at the famous Camilo Madrigal, adored by all the girls in the village.
