My Love | Camilo Madrigal

Love

I woke up, my body sore and I walked downstairs. Maya was chattering non stop about how her and Camilo spent the night together. I rolled my eyes and sat in my usual spot since Camilo had switched.

Maya stared at him all hour and I couldn't help but not pay attention to it. All I wanted was Camilo to notice me. Dolores put a hand on my shoulder and smiled slowly.

She lent to my ear, "Don't worry, we're all helping you,"

"Just leave it alone. He's in a relationship anyway,"

"Oh Maya dear, you are a great fit for Camilo, am I right familia?" Abuela said, with a happy smile.

Pepa rolled her eyes, Julieta calmed her down in sympathy. Dolores and Isabela shot dirty looks at Maya all the time.

It seemed like the only person who didn't know was Camilo. I wondered where he got his genes from. He was sure blind.

He smiled at Abuela and so did Maya. He was staring at her all breakfast.

Why couldn't he look at me like that?

I didn't want to see them fan over eachother so I left as soon as I was done eating. I did my daily chores, went to visit Micheal, doing my daily things but avoiding Camilo.

I didn't want to acknowledge him, since thats what he's been doing with my feelings.

A snaky arm grabbed my wrist and turned me around.

It was Maya. She had the same resting face she had been using all the time.

"I'm not trying to start a fight Y/n, just wanted to let you know me and Camilo are genuinely dating. I bet his type is just looks," She said, and then started to laugh.

Those words crushed me like a stab. Was it true? No, it couldn't be. She was probably doing something to make me jealous.

"I didn't ask,"

"Well I'm telling you so you stop shooting loving looks at him,"

She scoffed and walked away. I rolled my eyes and headed back to the Casita. I didn't look at Camilo that much right? At least, I never noticed it.

Since my clothes were dirty from watering the garden I changed into a new outfit.
(You choose skirt or pants, dress)

I went downstairs. Me, Dolores, and Mirabel were going to our secret fountain to talk. I met up with them as we walked to the fountain.

"Dolores, have you heard from Mariano?" Mirabel said, to start a conversation.

Dolores turned a hint of red and nodded. Mirabel laughed, and looked at me.

"I think you know what I'm gonna ask Y/n,"

"You know the answer, he's to busy with his girlfriend. I love him so much, why can't he just notice!"

My answer was loud, I quickly shut my mouth and looked down at my feet. Dolores started to snicker and they both laughed. I started laughing too.

"Sorry guys. I just get so mad when I see that girl,"

Mirabel patted my knee.

"Don't we all?"

Isabela came up from behind us, and she summoned a beautiful pink flower. She put it on her hair and sat down.

"Thanks for the invite," She said, rolling her eyes and laughing.

"Sorry, it was kinda rushed,"

She motioned for me to move to sit by her. I got up and did as she said.

"Enough of that. I hate that Maya girl so much. Why is Abuela always urging to keep her in the family and dating Camilo? There's nothing special about her, just her hair and dancing skills."

I spat out my answer, and huffed. Everyone looked at me, their eyes wide.

"Dang Y/n, I never knew you had it in you."

My cheeks turned red as I looked down. They all started in unison and said that they agreed. As we all got up to leave, I headed back to the Casita and bumped into Camilo.

He held me close to him and caught me.

"Jeez Y/N, you in a rush to meet your boyfriend?"

I turned red like crazy, ignored him, and headed up to my room with no words.

For the rest of the day, I couldn't help but stare at Camilo.
