Today was depressing. Must be the same with Pepa since Encanto was being drenched by strong thunderstorms. You sighed, and left your bed.
"y/n!! get down and eat breakfast! In a while, we'll be leaving Encanto soon." Your dad's voice boomed from downstairs. Right, you're going to leave Encanto today. Your dad thought that it'll be a good idea for the both of you to move in the city and experience a new environment. You, on the other hand, didn't want to leave.
If it weren't for Camilo Madrigal, you would have left this town years ago— but you see, if it wasn't obvious enough. You have a massive crush on him. You've been friends with him ever since he defended you from those mean bullies when you were 7 years old. After that, you guys were inseparable. There wasn't a day where the town hadn't seen you both together.
Although you guys are very good friends, best friends even. He did mess with you a lot. He pulled pranks on you left and right. Some pranks are simple as putting whip cream on your face while you sleep and some pranks are really mean like him purposely leaving you in a dark forest as he shapeshifts into different scary people to frighten you. Don't worry though, when you end up crying he stops and will cheer you up immediately. He's a jerk, but you love him nevertheless.
"Hmm I don't know, maybe I just love to see your cute reactions corazon" Is always his answer whenever you ask him the reason why he kept on teasing you. You would just give him a glare as a reply and he'd grin back.
Back to the present, you haven't told anyone in town that you were leaving. It's not like they have to know or anything, but you just left that task to bid goodbye to everyone to your dad. Not to Camilo though, you definitely have to tell him you were going to leave. You took your umbrella and went to the front door.
"Pa! I'm telling Camilo my goodbyes, I'll be back in a bit"
"Bring an umbrella with you, it's still raining very hard"
You nodded and held the umbrella close to you. You twisted the doorknob and your dad was right. What was going on inside the casita and why hasn't the rain stopped? You were about to find out anyway since you were headed there. You started to walk and after a few minutes you reached the town market. You bought some food and continued walking.
You finally arrived in front of Casita. Happy to see you, tiles started guiding you towards the front door. but before you could knock a hand aggressively pulled you from the side.
"Camilo! What was that for–"
"Shhh, mami's in a bad mood.. we should try and not make lots of noise. We don't want the storm to get worse do we?" He cut you off and started leading you somewhere while you nodded your head. You tightly held the umbrella with your vacant hand while the other one was being held by Camilo.
The two of you sat down under a tree not far from the Casita. He let go of your hand and glanced at you.
"y/n–"
"cami–"
Both of you looked at each other shocked and bursted into laughter.
"Okay okay you go first" You told him, since telling your best friend you're leaving them isn't really a good way to start a conversation. He nodded while his cheeks slightly turned red, he heavily sighed and for some reason he laughed. You looked at him, confusion all over your face.
"Why are you laughing?" You genuinely asked, making him laugh more. You were really concerned now since there isn't anything around that could have been the reason why he was giggling so much.
You had enough of his tomfoolery so you quickly grabbed his cheeks and faced it to yours. You dropped the umbrella causing you both to get slightly soaked from the rain. His eyes widened from your actions.
You stared into each other's eyes, he was completely distracted by the way your wet hair beautifully framed your face. You furrowed your eyebrows, asking yourself what the hell was going on inside his brain. His eyes slowly glanced down to where your lips were and wondered how soft— wait, this isn't a part of his plan! He coughed as he separated your hands from his face and gently held it.
"y/n .. i think i like you"
With that, your whole body froze. What? He likes me? wait no no, he THINKS he likes me. You didn't know if you were supposed to feel happy because well, Camilo likes you back! or feel sad because you were about to leave him.
Camilo sweat dropped and noticed you were quiet. "But–! That Was a joke! HAH! I pranked you! Of course I mean who would like their best friend and w–"
Is he being serious right now? Is that why he's been laughing? He was going to play with my feelings? If today was like a normal day then you would have also laughed it off but you weren't in the mood today and the rain isn't really helping. Actually, playing with someone's feelings isn't funny at all.
He stopped rambling when he saw you crying. "y/n..?"
You wasted no time and shoved him to the ground.
"I hate you!" You screamed as you quickly got up and ran to who knows where. Camilo tried catching up to you and pleading for you to stop.You ignored his protests and just ran where your legs were taking you.
The rain poured a lot harder, making it hard for you to see. You tripped on a twig sending you down, not noticing the cliff that was in front of you. You accidentally tumbled and the last thing you remember was hearing Camilo's screams.
Not only did you leave Encanto that day but also everyone else, permanently.
