6) Market Meetup

You rushed over to your small stall and set up quickly. It would be rush hour soon, and you wanted to get as much sold as possible.

After you had set up all your current paintings for display, you grabbed another empty canvas and got to work. You envisioned a sky with white cotton clouds. A mother was hanging up her clothes on the line with a perfect view of the baby blue sky and the Casita.

Your painting came to life with the repeating strokes and clean edges. You thought of Camilo, thinking of how he was supposed to visit you. Just as you thought it, he pranced down the street, looking smug, and spotted your stall. He grinned and ran to greet you. He sat on your table and posed.

"Paint me, (y/n)." You backhanded his leg and he flinched. He stood up, realizing you weren't in the mood. He pulled out a small bag from his pocket. "I got you something." He gave you a small box. "Open it!" You flipped the top off of the navy blue box and looked down. It was a necklace - a long, gold necklace with a cute charm of a chameleon hanging on it. "Y'know, cause I'm always changing." He grinned again. He morphed into a few people to prove a point.

You giggled. "Don't change too fast on me, Camilo." you sarcastically remarked. "Thank you, I love it." You picked up Camilo's hand and squeezed it tight.

His cheeks turned red and he looked away. "Aww, cat caught your tongue?" you said in the best flirtatious tone you could do. Camilo blushed even harder.

"Look, I gotta go. Abuela's been mad at me all morning, I think if she knew I was seeing you she'd beat my ass. Stay in touch, 'kay?" He gazed into your eyes as he was about to leave.

"'Kay." you said as Camilo took off.

"Adios, hermosa!" he hollered on his way out. My God, what would you do with him?
