I look around in defeat, everything was destroyed and dusty, the casita was gone, and everything seemed like it wasn't gonna get better

"Im sorry about...all this" I tell Camilo as I looked down

I knew it wasn't my fault but I still felt bad that the Casita was destroyed
"It's not your fault, don't apologize" he looked at me and held my hand, trying to comfort me

"Mirabel? Mirabel!" I heard Jullieta call for Mirabel

She's gone?! Where did she go? When did she leave?

Soon everyone started to call for her including me, I walked around the town screaming her name along with Camilo

I can still feel the pain in my arm as I moved it up to my face to call out her name

I winced every so slightly so Camilo doesn't worry about me, but it was useless, he still heard me

"Is your arm okay? It looks purple now" I took the place where my are was injured and carefully inspected it

"Im fine, it's not that deep anyways" I tried to convince him that I was fine, but he wasn't buying it

"But with all the dust, some of it could of gotten inside your cut" he looked really worried

"Hey, let's focus on looking for Mirabel first, then we can focuse on my wound, it'll make us both feel better" I Pat his back to try and satisfy his worried

"...sure" he says still staring at the wound

I see a butterfly pass by us, no...not just 'a' butterfly.. About a whole bunch of them

One of them landed on my nose and fly off again, where were they all going?

"Woah, what's going on?" I ask Camilo

"Not sure, but it's a beautiful sight" he tells me, not looking at the butterflies. But at me

"Haha, you flatter me" I tell him looking at his hazle eyes

I took this chance to look at everything on his body

He has a slender build,  curly, dark auburn hair, hazel eyes, and freckles across his nose and cheeks, along with dark tint on his eyelids, must be the eye shadow

He really is amazing, in every way

Likes: Teasing Isabela, food, shushing babies, mocking his father or sister

Dislikes: Getting caught by his father, danger, being homeless

How did I know all this about him? I'm not even sure. But I'm glad that I do

"Mariposa I know I'm attractive but never thought that you would be amazed by my looks" he giggled out

"Ah! I didn't even notice." I laughed along with him

"She's back she's back!" I hear a little girl shouting while holding a cup in the air with a spoon

I look at Camilo and smile "race you back!" I yell while getting a head start

"No fair!" He yelled to me, dang he was fast!

We both made it back to see Mirabel hugging her mother

"There was bees... Everywhere!" Her father placed a hand on Mirabel "I'll be okay"

"Uh not if we don't have a house." I nudge Camilo in his arm "what? We don't have a house, I can't say we don't have a house. What is that? Not a house!" He pointed at the debris

I sighed and giggled, he smiled glad that he made me laugh

"Look at this home
We need a new foundation
It may seem hopeless but we'll get by just fine" Mirabel sang while walking to the broken house
