Fireheart: Camilo X Reader

Chapter 10

Y/n's pov:

Me and Camilo went back to dancing when I felt someone grab my arm, I spun around to see Bruno with tears of happiness in his eyes "Bruno wha-" I was cut off by Bruno dragging me away telling me that "I think it's time you knew" his steps were massive considering his "7 foot frame" and almost jagged to it was hard to make sure I did trip. He took me to a corner close to his room "Bruno what is go-" I was silenced by Bruno again "listen I need you to know" I gave him a puzzled look and went back to looking around "you remind me of her—my daughter" I almost lost my breath from the gasp I took.

"Her name was Avery and she was my everything. I fell in love with a woman when I was young, say 19. Her name was Daniela and she was so beautiful and loved me, for me. She didn't care about the "bad luck" I brought—no she just cared about me. Not too long after everything she found out she was pregnant—when Alma found out the baby was out of wedlock she flipped and called her all sorts of names but in the end we were going to have this baby and then get married. Things went wrong with the birth...she...she died giving birth to my daughter"

His eyes started to tear up and so did mine "but my daughter survived and I cherished her because she was the only thing I had left and when she was 5 she got her gift—it was fire—similar to you she had trouble controlling it she would get these fevers and have to let the magic out—and one time when she was 6 the fever didn't go away even when she let out the magic I couldn't save her..." my heart shattered for the little girl whom I had not known "but I could help you, I could save you. My god you remind me so much of her, your drive, passion, you—your heart of fire...she was "my" fireheart...the fireheart who loved those little white flowers." I couldn't stop the waterfall of tears falling down my face, I took his hand and told him "take me to the river I need to show you something"

We both sat in front of the water that both Avery and I had used to release our magic "water has memory" he looked at me knowing what I was about to do. I touched the what and whispered sweet sorrows the water it wiped and wirled leaving me with two water figures though because water can be temporary I froze the water by making the wind cool it to freezing degrees. The two figures were a little girl who I assumed to be Avery and Bruno holding her.

Bruno shot up and started crying as he walked towards the ice sculpture. He got so close that he cupped the little girl's cheek and started whispering his sins in private. I made an ice flower; a replica of the white ones he gave me and that were her favorite. I slowly approached him slowly and placed a hand on his shoulder while slipping the flower into his hand. He put it in Avery's ice hair. I gripped both of his hands and turned him to me "together?" I asked, we would heal "together"

The very merry end.
