So You've Fallen for a Madrigal? (Camilo Madrigal x female reader)

33. That's Pretty Neat

Day 6
_______________________________________

"HeEeEeY," you shriek, "CaMiLo!!!"
"WhAaAaT?" he responds from the kitchen.
"CoMe HeRe RiGhT nOw!"
"WhY?"
"JKPFTLTL DON'T QUESTION IT."

You hear footsteps running up the stairs, then Camilo appears.

"What do you want?"
"For you to come look at this."
"Look at what?"
"This."

You put your hand on the doorknob and it flickers the same pink light as before.

"BXJSKWWJE WHOA! WHAT THE- THAT'S CRAZY"
"I KNOW RIGHT?!"

You look at eachother for a moment.

"But what does this mean?"
"I'm not sure..."
"Maybe you have a gift?"
"That would be so cool!"
"But wait- wouldn't that make you a Madrigal?"
"I don't know... It flickered pink. Could that mean anything?"
"I should go ask Abuela."
"NO-"

He looks at you funnily.

"I mean-" you continue, "nah, she'd probably make a big deal out of it."
"Fair point."
"So uh- what should we do?"
"Well, here's an option: nothing"
"I think I like that option."

Suddenly, you hear Mirabel yelp from the kitchen.

"We should probably get going."

The two of you run to the kitchen to see what's the matter, and you see Mirabel flailing her hand around in the air.
"I told you to be careful on the stove," tia Julieta says angrily.
"I was trying," Mirabel exhales frantically.

Camilo begins to snicker at the sight. What's so funny?

"You're lucky I've already finished some omelettes," she says as she shoves a bite of an omelette in Mirabel's mouth. Suddenly, Mirabel's burn disappears.

Wow. Guess injury in this house is a joke as long as Julieta is alive.

"Anyways, I should probably start helping," Camilo says.
"Yeah. In the meantime, I'm going to go bother someone else."
"Ooo~ Can you go mess with Isabella for me?" Mirabel asks.
"Isabella?"

Suddenly, Camilo shape-shifts into the girl from his little skit he put on a few days ago.

"Ooooh- Isabella."

They both smile at you.
