This chapter will have more Y/N and Camilo moments :) Also I was thinking of making my chapters slightly shorter than the last two, so tell me what you think.

Y/N's POV

We trailed back down the stairs and left the door, we wandered down the path and at the same time we saw the other group heading towards us. As we walked passed each other, a stream of hi's and hola's were said and my brother Marco decided it would be funny to shove me. Except he shoved me into Camilo.

My shoulder collided into his and my feet became tangled from my lack of balance.  Camilo quickly caught my wrists as my face slammed into his chest, the smell of his cologne filling my nose.

"Are you alright, Hermosa?" Camilo asked.

I could hear his heart beating slightly faster. My face turned red from the sudden touch and quickly leaped away from him. I looked away from his eyes that also seemed to be surprised that I had fallen onto him before nodding and walking away.

I noticed Dolores giving Camilo a look, she was raising her eyebrows and him and in return he rolled his eyes at her. Sibling telepathy. Dolores then winked and caught with her group before we waved our bye's and carried on with the walk into town.

The town centre was full of people just like yesterday, stalls were placed everywhere selling foods and other items. Kids instantly recognised Camilo and came running towards him with smiles on their faces. They threw themselves into his arms and he started throwing them about and shifting into a little version of himself. The four of us watched Camilo entertaining the kids before realising that he still had to show us around and whispering to the children that he'll be back later.

A flood of whining and no's were heard while Camilo wave by to them before shifting back into his regular form and joined us again. Mirabel took us to look at the best food stalls and restaurants along with where to do our weekly shop with a bakery next to it.

We walked inside the bakery and Antonio ran to the young guy behind the counter, about two years older than me, before rambling about who knows what. I smiled at the baker as he snuck Antonio and Amira a little cookie. I really enjoy baking so I hope to get to know the baker so I can learn some of his secrets.

We went to leave the shop before the guy behind the counter quickly placed a cupcake with a cherry in my hand.
"Welcome to Encanto, mujer joven," he smiled before going to serve an old lady.

We got outside and I started to peel the wrapper from my cupcake before somebody behind me yanked the cherry off of my cupcake. I turn around to see Camilo hold cherry to his lips with his signature smirk. I groan and try to snatch it back before he pops it in his mouth while holding the stem.

"Sorry Hermosa, but I just love cherry," he says teasingly and leaning closer to my face. Yet, he doesn't stop leaning into me and I have to start leaning back, putting my hands on his chest to try push him away. His hair tickled my face and my cheeks reddened. Then, I hear the sound of a bin rattling and him walking away with a little brush of his hair. I realise that he was reaching to put them cherry stem in the bin behind me and tilted my head to the floor trying to hide the glow on my cheeks.

Once we had finished looking around, Mirabel asked if we had any questions and I shook my head.

"Where's the toy shop?" Amira blurts out, reminding me that I still had to buy her whatever she wanted to keep her quiet. I quietly groaned and Camilo looked over with a small laugh.

"I can show you where to buy the best toys and sweets if you'd like," Camilo offers, "Mirabel and Antonio, Abuela said that she wanted you back at 12:00 and it's 11:55 so you might wanna hurry back."

Mirabel gasps and grabs Antonio's hand,
"I'm sorry we have to leave early, Y/N why don't you come over tomorrow and I can embroider you skirt for you." She said before starting to speed walk away while waving bye at us.

"Yeah, sure I'll come over tomorrow, I'll make some polvorosas for us," I exclaim waving back at her with an excited smile.

I watch them run in the distance, then turn around to see Amira tugging on Camilo's poncho to hurry up and tell her where the toy shop is. He points in a directions and tells her to follow the path before she starts skipping down as if she were in a Disney film.

Camilo then comes and stands next to me as we start going to follow her.

"Sooo....," Camilo started, "What's the special occasion of her getting a toy?"

"Well, this morning I accidentally shoved her onto the floor and to stop her from tattling on me to Luis, I promised to buy her whatever she wanted," I mumbled, laughing a bit at my silly actions, "Luis is too scary to face after we hurt his favourite sibling,"

Camilo suddenly burst out laughing, before saying, "I've done that too many times with Antonio as well, mama's a bit scary sometimes so I try bribe Antonio so he doesn't tell her."

"Younger siblings are snitches, aren't they?" I laugh reading the amount of times me and the twins had to do that.

"Dolores always hears me trying to bribe Antonio and after I'm done bribing him, I have to run to her to make sure she doesn't tell Mama," Camilo says rolling his eyes with a smile.

"I guess that's the struggle of having a sister that here's all." I smile, thankful that none of my brothers have the same gift.

"Yeah, even worse when she does manage to tell mama and the whole town knows that she's telling me off," Camilo said shivering from the times that it started raining as soon as she heard.

I laugh and look to my left seeing a stall selling chontaduros, my favourite food. My eyes linger a little longer before facing forward and spotting Amira outside a toy shop, jumping up and down. I sigh and run towards her and inside the shop.

"Hey, Y/N, I'll be back in a second just wait on that bench outside when your done," Camilo said before running off.

I shout a quick ok and purchase the toy that Amira wanted, realising it was expensive and sighing. She grabs the bag and we thank the cashier before sitting on the bench and watching the trees and flowers that scattered the terrain.

Thank you for reading, hope you enjoyed :)
