Y/n's Pov

When I arose from my slumber I couldn't think of anything better to wake up to then next to the 2 people that I love so much.

"Inez, you saved me." My voice broke, she gave me a weak have smile as her eyes were getting glassier by the minute.

She gave me a sincere smile with eyes full of relief, rubbing my shoulder as she let out a light laugh. "Y/n, I'm sorry for all the trouble I caused you.. I swear to you that all my feelings I had for Camilo are long gone. All I care about now is getting you home safe and putting this behind us, I would like nothing more and if you still don't feel 100% sure of having me around I wouldn't mind safely going back to Y/c, I promise I won't hold it against you."

My heart sank at her words, Of course her feelings were questionable but come to think of it she had never given me a reason not to trust her in the 1st place.. I even heard about Camilo's reaction when he found out, which makes me even more sure that I can always trust him.

"Mi amor?" I hear that sweet voice speak from beside me, I look to see that same handsome face that gets my heart skipping everytime. "If I could accept you for your past, I think you should atleast give your sister a chance at making it up to you." He motions at Inez

I look at my sister without changing my expression only to see her looking tense and worried.

"I don't need to." I said blankely, Inez stayed calm looking like she swallowed a hard pill until my expression changed in little to no time, "because I've made up my mind. Inez.." I scooted closer to her taking her hand "I want you to stay. I trust you, and most importantly.."

I used my freehand to take Camilo's hand in mine "I trust you. I know everything you said you feel for me is true and you've proved to me that you would do anything for me. I love you Camilo"

Camilo took his freehand and used it to cup my cheek leaning in to kiss my lips. He pulled away and said "I love you too princesa, you are everything to me."

The 2 got on each side of me as I gave in to their warm embrace of a semi grouphug.

Bark

We turn our heads to see a dog standing at the entrance of the tent wagging his tail and panting with excitement, "I guess that's our cue to start heading home. " Inez chuckled, and we all laughed

"And I'm sorry I've been so nasty towards you all this time, I hope you can forgive me as well Inez." I say to her as we made it back to the streets of town.

"Don't sweat it hermana, let's promise to just have eachothers backs unconditionally, put our past behind us, as you know it's so important." She says facing me once again before reaching the front of casita

"Agreed." I say with a nod as I knock on the door,"I'm glad your papa wasn't mad at me for leaving." Inez sighs looking down shyfully using her foot to kick around some dirt

"He was just worried, maybe you aren't his kid but he still cares for you just as much." I reassure her with my hand as the basket of baked goods dangled from my opposite elbow.

"Good to know." She smiled weakly, suddenly the door opened and we were both surprised to see the familar face we weren't expecting.

"Hola Ramona" we say in unison accompanied with excited grins on our faces. "Hola, come in guys."

When we got inside we look around and I see Camilo come out from around the corner, I smiled at him as he welcomed me in with a hug and kiss on the cheek.

"Y/n, I missed you amor." I returned his warm greeting with a smile

"How's everything been with the family??" I ask Ramona

Ramona smiled "you tell me" she says clearing the view for us to see Bruno holding Estrella, dancing and laughing with her. We pouted and grinmed in awe at the heartfelt sight

"We also do have something else to announce, Bruno and I are engaged!" Ramona happily sang showing her emerald colored ring

Our jaws dropped and within seconds we're cheering and jumping together like young teenagers, we celebrated later that night with food and music

It's times like this where I can't help but think to myself that this is how family should feel like. Being surrounded by the people you love the most and those who love you just makes you wanna take in the moment while it lasts

Everyday I keep explorering more sides of life, ever so grateful to have someone like Camilo by my side especially, taking on the rest of the world together

But what am I waiting for? We've got a wedding to prepare for!!
