Camilo's known you since you were both little, and has secretly had feelings for you since you were 13. He hasn't been interested in dating anyone, but you have a boyfriend; tall, dark hair, funny, strong. Camilo gets jealous of him, and him being h...
Abuela wakes up early in the morning to check if the candles magic is strong. As she goes to the window she sees many people pacing around the town. She hurries her way outside of Casita and hears people yelling, "Y/n! Where are you?" She wraps her cardigan around herself and walks down to the town and asks, "Is there something wrong?" Then a women replies, "It's Y/n's Mama!" Abuela runs at a steady pace back into Casita, up the stairs and into Mirabel's bedroom, "Where's Y/n?" She asks Mirabel. Mirabel wakes up and rubs her eyes, "She's staying in Camilo's room. Why?" Abuela continues running around the balcony to Camilo's room. She opens the door in a rush, "Y/n! You need to wake up!" She yells.
You wake up, and hurry out of bed, "Abuela?" You ask. "Something is wrong with your Mother!" Abuela states. Camilo wakes up to all the yelling. And as you and Abuela leave his room, everyone hears and wakes up. They all come out of their rooms and start muttering, "What's going on? What's happening." There was no time to answer them as Abuela rushed you out of the door, they all followed behind even though you were all wearing pajama's. You enter the town and suddenly a bunch of people surround you, "Where have you been? This is serious!" They all lecture you. Yet you still have no idea what's going on.
"Isabella do you mind growing vines to help us get through?" Abuela asks her granddaughter. "Mhm" Isabella nods, she grows flowering vines as a barrier to move the angered people out of the way. As you arrive home, you see the front door is already opened. You walk inside feeling anxious, then suddenly you see 2 people sitting beside your mum who's laying on the floor. "Mama?" You worry as you run up to her. The Madrigal's all stand around the living room watching, "Mama?" You ask again, starting to tear up. "What happened to her?" You ask the two people sitting next to her. They both look at the adults around the room, not knowing if it was their responsibility to tell you or not. "We um... We think she had a heart attack." One states.
"W-what?" You begin to cry, "Is- is she..." Not wanting to say the word dead, you look up for conformation and see the unfortunate news by a nod from the two people. They get up and leave, thinkings it's probably best. You take your mums hands and burry your face into her stomach, "Mama!" You scream, tears streaming down your face. The Madrigal's struggled to watch, they all looked at each other feeling devastated. Tears streamed down Antonio's face, everyone began to cry, even a little bit. "MAMA!" You scream, hoping something would happen. But it doesn't. Your cry is so heartbreaking no one knew what to do. "No. No... no no..." You keep repeating. "This is all my fault..." You cry.
You turn around and suddenly you're in Camilo's embrace, "I'm sorry. I'm so- so sorry Y/n. This is not your fault, not at all." He comforts. You hug him back, and bury your face into his shoulder. He puts his hand through your hair and rests his hand on your head. You fall into him not being able to keep yourself stable, your face resting on his neck. "What am I gonna do?" You whine. Camilo holds you tighter and your breathe becomes heavier, you close your eyes and suddenly your out. You've fainted in the arms of Camilo Madrigal...
"We'll sort this out..." Julietta said, heartbroken by what's happened. "Get her out of here, go on kids." Pepa carries on. Dalores and Isabella follow Luisa, Mirabel and Antonio out. Camilo stands up, carrying you bridal style while trying to wake you up. He walks out your house and leaves all the adults behind to sort it out. Everyone arrives at the Madrigal's Casita, not knowing what to do. "I'm going to put Antonio to bed." Dalores says, "Come on you." She says to Antonio while rubbing his back. They go into his room leaving just You, Camilo, Mirabel, Luisa and Isabella.
"We should try and wake her up. Right?" Mirabel worries. Isabella says, "Camilo, put her down here." As she sits down on the sofa. Camilo gently places you onto the sofa, your head laying on Isabella's lap. "Maybe we should let her sleep..." Camilo suggests. He kneels down by the sofa and holds your hands, resting on your stomach. "That would be best." Isabella replies, "She's burning up, can somebody grab a damp flannel?" Luisa goes into the kitchen, "I'm on it." She says while running the tap. "If we leave her to sleep we should put her in a bed..." Mirabel says, not sure what else she can do. "Why don't you go and set up a bed, ready for her." Isabella says. "My room." Camilo says quietly, looking at your saddening expression.
Mirabel walks up the stairs and enters Camilo's bedroom, making his bed ready for you. Luisa jogs back with a damp flannel and passes it to Isabella. She slowly and gently dabs it on your face, around your forehead and on your cheeks. Luisa says, "Is it okay if I go back to sleep?" Not knowing if there was anything else she could do. Isabella nods her head and Camilo says nothing. Luisa goes to her room and back to bed. Isabella looks up from your face, to see Camilo. Tears running down his cheeks. "Hey hey. Are you alright?" Isabella asks, rubbing his shoulder. Camilo looks up at his cousins caring face, "This is my fault." If I- if I never pretended to be William in the first place none of this would've happened..."
"You're wrong. Yeah it was definitely 100% selfish of you, but you did it because you love her, right?" Isabella comforts. He nods his head holding your hand up to his lips. "The beds ready!" Mirabel calls down the stairs. She goes into her own room, then Camilo picks you up again, carrying you into his bedroom, Isabella following behind.

He places you down in the bed, and puts the quilt over you. Isabella stands at the door checking if you will be okay for her to leave, then Camilo says, "You'd be a good mum." She smiles and puts her hands on her belly, "Do you think?" She asks. Camilo nods, "Mhm." Isabella leaves his room, and he gets into the bed next to you. He puts the quilt over himself and looks at you, full of worry. "I'm so sorry Y/n..." He whispers as he switches off the lamp beside him. He closes his eyes, wishing the day would never come.
You open your eyes, to see your arms wrapped around Camilo. You turn over gently trying not to wake him to see the time, 10:23am. You gently turn back around, and cuddle up to Camilo, waking him slightly. "Y/n?" He mumbles, still half asleep. Suddenly tears start rolling down your face. You push your face into his chest, and cry into him. He wakes up a bit more, and puts his arm around your neck hugging you and keeping you close. Camilo kisses you on the head but doesn't say anything, what could he say?
"I can't do it..." You mumble. "What do you mean, Y/n?" Camilo wonders. "I just. I can't do today. Or tomorrow, or any day. I don't- I don't want to face anyone..." You cry. "It's okay." Camilo whispers gently in your ear, "I'm always gonna be by your side." Your tuck your hand underneath him, hugging around his waist, and your leg arched over his. You both just lay in silence, wondering what the day has for you.
