Y/N's POV

I'm lost in thought as I'm watching the leaves sway in the light wind, Amira playing in the grass with her toy, the peace of sun relaxing me. Suddenly a pair of hands cover my eyes and I feel the brush of curls on my head.

"Guess who?" The 'mysterious' voice said.

"Mmhhh let me guess......Camilo?" I ask sarcastically.

"Awww how did you know?" Camilo says coming round the other side of the bench to face me with a smile on his face. He had a bag in his hand and I was curious as to what he bought.

"Hey look, I saw you looking at that food stall back there and bought us three some to share," Camilo says while sitting down next to me and emptying the bag he was holding.

"OMG, I love chontaduros, they're my favourite food of all time!" I exclaim quite loudly before grabbing one and popping it in my mouth, "Thank you so much!"

Camilo smiled even more at my reaction and grabbed one to pop in his mouth. Amira must have noticed us eating because she ran over and sat on my lap with a big bounce, knocking the air out of me. She laughs and grabs and chontaduro, happily munching on it and showing Camilo the new toy she got.

We had been sat there eating and talking for a while and Amira must have gotten bored because she went back to playing in the grass. Me and Camilo carry on getting to know each other, talking about our families and him constantly cracking jokes that had me almost wetting myself. He then picked up the last piece of chontaduro and I became a little sad that he was gonna eat the last piece and pouted a little.

"Say ahhhhh," Camilo said pushing the peach to my mouth with his fingers and waiting for me to open my mouth. I was shocked for a second before slowing leaning towards his fingers and opening my mouth to take the peach. This whole time he was making intense eye contact and I could feel the heat rising in my cheeks.

"See, now you have no reason to pout," Camilo said before wiping his fingers on the napkin, "Tho it is quite cute, Hermosa," then winked at me.

I couldn't speak for a second, trying to gather my thoughts after what he just said. He kept calling me Hermosa even though he knew my name.

"You keep calling me, 'Hermosa',"

"Good observation," he laughed a little before looking back at me.

"Why tho?" I asked, confused by his nickname.

"Because," he starts, then pulls a yellow tulip from the ground and places it in my hair and moving a strand behind my ear, "You are beautiful,"

I was completely flustered by his straight forward response and the way he didn't back down from saying it. He opened his mouth about to say something else before a child jumped over the bench and falling on him, making him land on the floor. I started laughing uncontrollably at the confused look on his face as to who pushed him before seemingly recognising the little boy.

"Why you little!" He exclaimed jumping up and chucking him in the air before catching him. A tsunami of kids quickly came barrelling in having finally spotting Camilo and ruining the calm atmosphere. I didn't mind it though, it was adorable how all the kids loved Camilo so much. However, soon I realised they were up to no good.

They all pinned him down, 2 kids on each limb, and the other kids started tickling him, including Amira. I watched as his face became bright red and pleads of no's came from his mouth aside from the laughs.

I concluded that he had been tortured enough before helping pull away the children from Camilo and helping him stand up. He fell into my arms and quickly concealed himself using my hands. He raised his hands up in surrender to the kids calling it a truce.

"Please will you play with us now!" One child yelled.

"YEAH, we've been waiting for years!" Another child moaned.

"Plus you've spent enough time with your girlfriend all day, we matter too!" a little girl with pigtails blurted out, causing me to cough a little bit, shocked by what I had just heard.

"Hey, she's not my girlfriend, ok guys?" Camilo quickly said with a glance to me, I could see that his ears had a slight blush to them. "Fine, I'll count to 10 and you all have to find a place to hide. STARTING NOW!" He yelled and all the kids started screaming and running to find somewhere to hide.

It was funny watching all the kids panic about Camilo going to find them. It was even funnier seeing them trying to come up with ideas. One boy was trying to climb a tree and another was panicking in the middle looking for just something to hide in. He looked at me before sprinting behind me right when Camilo said 10.

I stood as still as I could without looking obvious, trying my best to conceal the little boy behind my skirt. I watched Camilo run around, catching kids left and right from behind bushes and bins. I could hear little giggles behind me and I lightly tapped the kid with my foot, silently telling him to shut up.

Camilo looked over at me having caught 12/13 kids there were, then he smirked and walked over. My breath hitched as he got really close to my face then moved so his chin was above my shoulder and his ear right next to my ear. He then moved even closer so his body slightly pushed against mine and looked over my shoulder.

"Found you!" Camilo said with a sing song voice. He then pushed away from me and the kid came out from behind me, holding my skirt with a little pout. I smiled down at him before softly squeezing his puffy cheeks with a toothy grin. He giggled before running of to go count and find people.

"Awww, Hermosa, why won't you pinch my cheeks like that?" Camilo whined and I looked at him with a deadpan look before jumping in to find a hiding spot as I wanted to join in on the fun.

I hid behind a bush before being tackled to the floor by none other than Camilo. He started tickling me aggressively and I couldn't help but laugh.

"Ay, Hermosa, your gonna give away our position," he whispered with a mischievous grin, knowing the game that he was playing, "you need to be quiet."

I gave him a playful glare before he carried on tickling me until I raised my hands up in surrender, breathless and panting. By that point we had gotten spotted by the kids and Camilo held his hand out for me. I grabbed it and he pulled me up with such force that I stumbled a bit. We both sniggered at my clumsy feet before coming back to join the kids in the middle.

Soon we had been playing hide and seek along with other games for hours and I knew that me and Amira had to be getting back soon, in time for dinner.

"Bye Camilo, we've got to go for our dinner," I called to him, surprised with the rapid way he turned round.

"Aww, you can't even stay a little longer," he said before going to hug Amira good bye as she had taken a liking to him. "I'll see you soon, yeah?"

"Well I'm hanging out with Mirabel tomorrow and your house so you'll probably see me there," you smile before waving bye and start the tired treck back home.
