The market was full of bustling noises, barters, and people constantly moving around. It was a busy day, for another special event was coming up in Encanto.

The Madrigal family wanted to celebrate Casita coming back after its fall a few days ago. Even if Abuela Alma tried to soften her words and ways, it was hard to break old habits. She wanted to make sure that everything was perfect. However, she did include her son, Bruno, and granddaughter, Mirabel in preparing the party.

As expected, The Madrigal family was extremely busy. Running here and there, gathering decorations, and doing thousands of tasks.

Luckily, Camilo had just finished all of his tasks, and before his padre or anyone else could ask him to help or add another task for him to do, he ran to the market.

He needed a break, for four days in a row he had not seen his vida and he was getting desperate. He just wanted to feel their embrace, missing their touch and presence. Oh dios mio, he just needed to be with you this instant!

In a crowd filled with people's voices, his ear immediately perked up when they caught your voice. How could he ever miss it? It was his favorite after all.

Knowing that you were just a few steps away, a large smile find its way to his face. He turned to see you and your friend chatting away, his heart missing a beat when he saw your breathtaking smile.

Just as he was about to steal you away, something your friend said stopped him in his tracks.

"Y/N, you're going on a date this Saturday, right? Want me to help you dress up?" Your friend winked at you teasingly.

You blushed up, you haven't seen him in a while so you can't help but feel a bit flustered about meeting him, your amor.

"Oooooo with him right? That handsome guy," Your other friend nudges your shoulder, smiling mischievously.

"Oi stop or I'll smack you this instant," You let out a laugh, not noticing the boy in his yellow ruana looking at you with sad eyes.

'A date this Saturday? With who?' Camilo thought, his heart ripping as he realized what this could only mean. 'N-no way. They would never do that to me. They love me! They would never cheat on me!'

Feeling like someone was watching you, you looked around and made eye contact with Camilo. Your eyes widen, not expecting to see him in the market. Instantly, you made your way to him, leaving your friends behind.

Your friend saw who you were heading to and understood what was going on.

"See you later, Ms. Simp!" One of your friends shouted, running before you can smack them on the head.

You rolled your eyes, you were definitely going to get them later for that, but right now, there were more important matters.

You ran and hugged him tightly, placing your head on his shoulders, but stop when you realized that the boy wasn't hugging you back.

"Mi amor, what's wrong?" You looked up to him, letting go.

His eyes were hesitant to meet yours, and when they did, it was full of pain. You panicked when you see this sight. What happened? Was his Abuela too hard or-

"Date..." He murmured, his voice low.

"Date??" You repeated, confused.

"You have a date this Saturday...?" He said looking at you with betrayal, his voice almost breaking.

"Huh?? Querido, you asked me to go on a date with you after the party, remember?" You said, desperate to make the look in his eyes go away. Holding his arms, scared that he'll leave you without hearing you out.

"Oh...."

"OHHHHHHHH"

Your tense shoulders lighten up as you see a soft smile crawl up to his face.

“I’m so sorry mi vida” Camilo immediately brought you close to his chest while playing with your hair. “I’m so dumb, I completely forgot that I asked you on a date after all the preparations for the party,”

He squeezes you tight as he says, “I… I thought you cheated on me. I know you would never do that but when I heard your friends said you had a date and I-“

Before he could ramble on, you pulled on the collars of his shirt, bringing his lips on yours. He was frozen for a few seconds, but it didn’t take him long to completely melt under your touch, holding your head to deepen the kiss.

You let go of him and gave him a quick peck after seeing his flushed face.

“I’ll never cheat on you, you’re the only one for me, amor de mi vida”
