𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐇𝐀𝐕𝐄 𝐁𝐄𝐄𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐎𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐓𝐎 𝐃𝐎, but honestly there wasn't anything you can do about it, you knew you loved the girl but you also knew that your brother got to her first.

you always pictured this scenario in your head over and over again, it never seemed to get out, it was you living happily with isabela, with children running around in the casita, you guys were happy, but right now you definitely didn't feel happy.

the dinner started at 5, so you had enough time to get ready, honestly, everything was happening too fast for your liking, you really weren't the type to rush into things, you liked to take your time, you had to think of something but you knew if you did what you were thinking at the proposal, the village wouldn't think highly of you.

you headed to the village, grabbing all the fruits from the vendors, "thank you ! que tenga un buen día" you waved at the elder man, walking towards the fountain that was in the middle of the village, something about the fountain mind you feel at peace, wither it was the water waving in slow motion or wither it was all the coins that shined when the sunlight hit.

you dipped your hand into the water, moving your hand around, a voice spoke from behind you, "hola mi hermosa!" you turned around seeing isabela, who you didn't really want to see.

"hey isa ! what's up ?"

"so...um you know.. about the proposal, right ?" she said in a hushed tone.

you nodded slowly, "uh..yeah, mi hermano me dijo."

"oh! well, I'm glad cause I would want to you to miss it" she smiled, you knew it was forced, her whole life was forced, you just smiled, " I wouldn't miss my best friends proposal" you laughed, " good ! see you at five then ?" she said, making you nod, as she walked away, you frowned, this guilt in the pit of your stomach, almost making you want to vomit, all you wanted was to just tell her you love her.

you sighed, getting up from the fountain, you needed to head home, to get ready, plus you wanted enough time for you to cry.

hours passed and now it was time for the dinner, you had on a usual dress shirt with a skirt that wasn't too short nor too long, it had some designs on it, mirabel gave you for your birthday last year.

you walked with alma and your family to the casita, "isabelaa, your boyfriend here !" camilo shouted, causing you to roll your eyes, everyone gathered around the table, you sat by your mom, well your brother sat by isabela, who looked clam.

" so, mariano, what do you do on the weekends ?" alma asked him, sipping her wine, "well, I like to play piano and sing," he said with a proud smile.

you looked at isabela, she seemed so happy you looked away looking at mirabel, who was looking at Dolores, they were staring at each other until mariano passed the avocado, dolores whispered something to camilo making him shift into different people.

soon after, the dinner was a disaster, there were cracks everywhere, "WE'RE ALL DOOMED!" Dolores shouted, everyone was freaking out, everyone headed out to the door, mariano nose was broken, and you tripped over the cracks twisting your ankle.

"the casita is fine and the magic is strong !" alma said with a stern face, slamming the door shut, "MIRABEL!!"

you went home with your family, heading into your bedroom and sitting on your bed.

you relaxed your ankle, rolling it in slow motion, it hurt but it didn't hurt where you couldn't walk, you sighed, you got up and walked to your window.

you looked at the stars, counting them, 1...2...3....10.....20
you stopped looking at two closely, they shined brighter than the others both side by side.

"isabela, isabela !!" you shouted for the older girl, she was in her room and you were outside, soon the girl came out from her balcony, "what !" she shouted quietly, it was dark and most of Isabela's family was asleep.

"come on !! let's go look at the stars" you grinned, she rolled her eyes and climbed down with the flowers making you smile.

you both walked to the flower field, laying down, you rested your head on the older girl's lap, gazing at the stars above you, counting them as you always did.

"you know...I've always wished I was a star" isabela spoke, "they have so much light, always brighten up the midnight sky" she spoke calmly, you looked at her.

"me too... I always imagined myself as a star, floating around" you said looking back at the sky, "you know.. one day I'll buy our own little stars, have it forever and ever" isabela said.

"that would be awesome..." you said, "hey! look there's a shooting star !" you pointed out, " make a wish," you said, you and isabela closed your eyes, making a wish.

you opened your eyes, "what did you wish for?" "not telling you"

you sighed, you walked back to your bed, looking at the star that was hanging from your ceiling with the initials.

(ur initials) + I.M.
