I wake up jumbled in a big mess of sheets. I fix them, make my bed and I go to get ready for today. and walk downstairs in the Casita. I see everyone there, getting ready.

"Why are we all getting ready?"

"You didn't know? It's Maya's birthday..."
I rolled my eyes and walked away. So she was coming back today. I walked to the front garden with Mirabel and talked with her.

"I haven't seen you in a while Mirabel,"

She smiled shyly. "Sorry Y/n, I've just been busy," I smiled at her as we both watered plants and Isabela came along and hugged me.

"You haven't talked to me the whole time you've been here,"

"Yes I have Isa!"

She smiled as she fixed the beautiful purple flowers infront of us.

"I'm so tired of that Maya girl. I don't know why Abuela is making us celebrate with her."

I was glad someone agreed with me and I nodded slowly. Mirabel looked at me.

"But her and Camilo are a thing, maybe that's why,"

"Camilo knows Y/n likes him, but he's blind." We both looked at Isabela and she looked proud of her words. She grew more and more flowers and as the day grew by the ceremony for Maya looked beautiful.

She walked in with a nice dress, her hand in Camilo as she blows out the candles and smiles at everyone. She walks Camilo around like he's a dog. He smiles at me and looks again at Maya.

She motions saying she's going to go somewhere but Dolores follows her. I was going to go but Camilo was there.

He nervously puts his hand behind his head.

"I didn't know it was her birthday Y/n," He says nervously. Isabela scowls at him from behind me and grabs my wrist. He looks sad and heads over, welcoming more and more guests.

Dolores notions for me to come over. I see Maya sitting there along with some guy. She pulls him towards her and kisses him.

"How do we prove it to Camilo?"

Everyone looks at her. "He wouldn't believe us,"

We all go back downstairs with sad faces and Camilo looks at all of us suspiciously. We ignore him and go on.

I longed for his touch but I knew he loved her. I had to prove it to him somehow that she was seeing another.

He grabs me in for a dance and I dance with him but Abuela comes over.

"Where's your girlfriend Dear?"

"I don't know Abuela,"

I pull away and go over to Dolores, Isabela and Mirabel as we sit together. Maya comes back down and without a doubt Camilo dances with her.

I roll my eyes and we all scowl.

"He can't get a single hint,"

"He got the wrong genes,"

"What a blind man,"

I laugh at all their remarks and look over at Camilo. At the corner of his eyes he looks at me and smirks. Maya starts yelling at the DJ to put a slow song and he agrees.

As they dance together my jealousy tenses up. Dolores and Isabela smirk at the same time as they push me to the dance stage. I go back, not knowing what to do and sit down.

"Go get him Y/n,"

"Dolores you don't understand he knows nothing,"

Maya dances away from Camilo and then goes back to him and pulls him in for a slow dance. I feel my jealousy infuriate more and more. I suddenly get up angrily.

I feel hands hold me back. It was Micheal.

"Nows not the right time," He smiles at me and then goes over to sit by Isabela. I sit down at his words and scowl the whole night at Maya wooing Camilo.

After the party Maya stops me.

"Hey.. Y/n?"

"Oh hey!"

Her smile fades.

"I'd appreciate it if you keep your tactics away from my boyfriend. Thanks,"

She walks away and puts her hand in Camilo's. They both walk away together and a fire sparks me inside. I stomp back to the main hall angrily and go up to my room.

Everything I'm doing comes with a sense of anger. Dolores comes in and sits me down.

"I heard everything. Calm down."

She hands me a pastry from downstairs and I eat it and relax.

"She makes me so mad."

Dolores pats my knee and hands me another pastry. We both stare at the wall.

"I just don't know what to do,"

She gets up for her leave and after she's gone I get ready for the night. Just like the other days I hug my pillow and go to sleep, like always. I hear the celebrations still going on an plug my ears and sleep.
