"𝙄'𝙢 𝙂𝙡𝙖𝙙 𝙄 𝙈𝙚𝙩 𝙔𝙤𝙪" (Camilo Madrigal Fanfic)

【Ｃｈａｐｔｅｒ １１】

Camilo's POV

I stare at my notebook, feeling extremely guilty, the girls had been glaring at me. School ended, I was about to take Lara's bag but Mirabel snatched it, "I'm giving this to her" she glared and walked out with the girls. "Man..Lara was wrong for doing that but, did you really have to say that?" Atlas said as I sighed, "I know that I was wrong.." I whispered, "Then what should we do?" George said, "I couldn't face her after that! She probably hates me" I said. "So you're going to be a coward and not do anything from your own mistake?" George protested, "That's..." I sighed and rubbed my temples, "Then go say sorry, Lara would understand if you explain it to her" George encouraged me as Atlas agreed. 

"Yeah..I'll go and apologize" I said as they cheered and teased me, we walk out of the room to see a panicking Jessa and Ronalin. "Have you guys seen where Lara went?" they both ask in union, "No, we just got out" Atlas answered as they look more stressed, "Why? What happened?" I ask. "Lara ran away and her parents are worried" Jessa answered, "Where are they?" George asked as we walk to where they were, Rowena spotted me she was crying.

"Camilo.." she called as I ran up to her and kneeled beside her as she held both of my hands, "Please..please find and talk to Lara" she cried, Emanuel kneeled down comforting her. "I will Señora, actually I'm also going to apologize to you" I said as she looks at me, "I'm sorry for saying hurtful words to your daughter, I feel really guilty for making the person I like feel like she's not wanted. I'm here to apologize for hurting your wonderful, beautiful and amazing daughter and asking for your blessing to ask her out to be my girlfriend" I stared at her with determination in my eyes, she cried more and I was surprised.

"S-señora?!" I panicked as Emanuel laughed, "She's just happy that someone is loving our daughter like you, I'm trusting my Lara to you Camilo" Emanuel said patting my shoulder, "Now go make her smile" he said as I nod. "Camilo!" Mirabel shouted, I stopped from running, she handed me her bag, "Go get her primo" she said as I smiled at her and hugged her.

I already knew where she was, so I headed there right away. I reached the garden, I could see her in the gazebo, she was wearing the ruana I gave her, her hair was also wet from the rain earlier. "Lara.." I called put, she got scared and covered her head with the ruana, I sat down beside her, I also saw the chameleon hair clip that was on the other side of her. I sighed, "I'm sorry.." I started, "I shouldn't have shouted at you, and said I didn't need your help. To tell you the truth, I was friends with Vanessa because of Abuela, she told me that it was against my gift to make someone mad or sad. So I did my best to make everyone my friends, I even neglect Mirabel in school because of it" I paused since I was getting emotional.

"I'm so focused on what Abuela wants, what Abuela said that I even shouted at you. I even slapped you on the face, the face you made after I shouted at you made me feel so hurt, I saw that you were hurt by my words and I'm so sorry" I didn't get to hold my tears, "I thought that the only thing I should do is follow Abuela, do this for her, do this for the family and nothing was for me. But when you came to my life, I finally found my purpose and found my happiness..." I said, I could see her remove the ruana from her head. "My purpose was to make you the happiest person in Encanto, to tell you that you're the prettiest and to make you mine..that was my happiness" I look at her, her nose and eyes were red and puffy. "I'm glad I met you...and you look funny" I said as she punched my arm, I wiped my tears, "I like you Lara" I confessed.

"You'll always be my hermosa, bonita, princesa, mi amor, mi vida and maybe someday my esposa" I said as she smiles, "There's that smile that made me fall for you, now fix your face hermosa" I said grabbing her glasses and hair clip. "I'm sorry" she said wiping her tears, "I'm sorry for getting in danger, sorry for making you worried, sorry for not listening to you..I'm sorry" she cried still wiping her tears, "Bonita, you're going to make a river if you keep crying" I said as she chuckles. "I'm really sorry, I was just afraid that someone I care for will just slip from my hands again.." she said, "I never told you about this because it's a sensitive topic but you deserve to know" she said smiling at me.

"I had another older sibling, a year older than me so we were really close. She had this illness that can't be cured, so she suffered for almost her entire life, and my gift being able to fix anything I thought that I could fix or heal her. I tried everything to make her feel better, turns out it can't be healed by gifts, so her suffering continued till I loss my guard and she ended up ending her suffering" she wipes her tears, "That's why when Vanessa said that she'll make you hers, I got triggered.." she pressed her lips. "I didn't get to fix her..." she said and started crying again, "I'm...so useless" she whispered, I cupped her face, "Don't say that, you fixed me" I said as she cried more and hugged me. "She's just like Señora Rowena" I thought and hugged her back, "Gusto din kita Camilo" (I like you too Camilo) she said and I was confused, "Qué?" I ask as she smiles at me.

"I like you too, idiota"
