My Love | Camilo Madrigal

New Guests

I woke up to the sound of everyone shouting and talking. I rubbed my eyes and went downstairs to see the same brown haired girl I had seen dancing on the streets. She shook everyone's hand and walked up to me.

"Finally! I've found a girl my age. I'm Maya," She said, with a sweet smile. I'm glad this girl wasn't rude at all. I shook her hand. "I'm Y/N Y L/N." I say with a smile. Camilo was blushing hysterically from that one handshake. I walked downstairs and nudged him. "So your girlfriend has arrived!" I say, with a hint of sadness.

"She's not my girlfriend Y/n," He said, seriously. "She'd never like him." I then saw Michael walking in and my eyes dilated. "Micheal?!" Me and Camilo said.

"What? Oh you didn't know? I'm the beautiful, amazing, Maya's cousin," He said with an eyeroll. "I'm glad your here senorita," He kissed my hand. Camilo fake smiled and said, "Thank you, we'll be going now Senor."

He grabbed my hand and took me outside to the streets to see Maya there, walking around alone. She walked up to us. "You're my new friends," Camilo was silently smiling. "Yeah," I said.

"I didn't quite catch your names,"

"Y/n,"

"Camilo!"
We both looked at eachother and back at Maya. "I'm going to head back to the Casita. Want to come?" We both nodded and headed back with her. I squeezed Camilo's hand because I could tell he was nervous. He insantly relaxed. We sat down at our spots in the Casita.

"Have you gotten to meet Maya yet?" Abuela said. We both nodded. Michael winked at me from across the table and Camilo rolled his eyes. Maya shot a smile at Camilo and me. After lunch we all went out together. Micheal sat down by me, and Maya sat at my other side. Camilo whispered something to Maya and came to my side.

"Y/n, you look beautiful with your hair up," Micheal said, locking his eyes with me. "Thank you?" Camilo started to look mad. "You look better with it down," He said to me. He started to talk to Maya and Micheal got up to leave.

We all left and headed back to the Casita. I couldn't find Camilo so I headed up to his room but heard talking. I looked inside the crack to see Camilo's hands in Maya's and they were hugging. Something in my heart dropped and I walked back to my room.

I didn't know what to feel. Happy for my best friend or jealousy. A thousand things ran from my head. I didn't like Camilo, did I? After all, we were only friends. I got out of my room and went to eat dinner. I noticed Camilo moved spots to sit by Maya.

I looked down and didn't feel like eating. I saw Camilo holding Mayas hand and I tensed up with jealousy. Micheal looked over at them and then to me. He could feel that I was sad.

"Are you okay Y/n?" He said to me, after dinner.

"I'm fine Micheal, you don't have to worry about me."

"No Y/n. I'm your friend. I know you aren't okay. Is it about Camilo?" I wanted to tell him but I didn't. "Yes it is Micheal, I really don't know how to feel or what to do." He looked at me. "Because you hid it from him he moved on."

"What?"

"If you truly love someone you have to tell them how you feel. Or else you'll never get them."

I sighed. "I wish but it's hard. Plus I'm too late,"

"It's never too late for love senorita," I hit him playfully. "Tell him tommorow." I nodded. He left my room and I got ready. Would I really tell him? I told myself to stop thinking about it and waited for tommrow.
