Camilo Madrigal x Reader

Chapter 8

I wonder around the forest, my leg in immense pain but I try my best to ignore it, just wanting to find Camilo. After a while of walking around, I found a clearing. I could hear someone talking so I quietly walk closer only to see that it was Camilo. "found him," I whisper underneath my breath so Dolores can hear me, I slowly walk toward Camilo when I hear them speak again. "maybe I didn't mean as much to them as they mean to me since it was so easy for them to forget me," they mutter, just loud enough for me to hear. After hearing that I feel a pang at my heart. I walk up to him and place my hand on their shoulder, almost forgetting the state my leg is in, causing it to worsen. "Camilo?...Please don't say you didn't mean anything to me, I even forgot mi Abuelo for bit. Dolores thinks you'll be able to help me regain my memories," I mumble, looking at the floor, feeling guilty about forgetting them.

Camilo looks at me, "why does she think that?" he asks me, "she told me you were my best friend, and I believe her, when you left me earlier I felt a huge amount of guilt and I don't know why..." I explain not looking at them. All of a sudden a feel a shooting pain through my leg, making my knees give out, causing me to fall towards the lake. I hold my eye closed tight and wait to feel the impact of the water, but it never came, instead I feel hands on my waist. I open my eyes to see Camilo looking at me worried, he's holding my waist tightly to make sure I don't fall, "are you okay?!" they quickly ask me with concern as the help me stand properly, wrapping my arm around his shoulder, "we need to get you back to the casita," he says with worry clear in his voice. "Camilo I'm fine!" I smile at them, trying to ease his worry.

They shake their head and pick me up, "what are you doing?" I ask shocked. but they don't reply and instead just start running back to the casa Madrigal. I hold on tight, not wanting to fall as they run. After a while we finally get back and Camilo immediately takes me back to the room I was in before, he walks over to the bed and places me down on it. "You need to rest, and now that you're awake Tia Julieta can heal your wounds properly," they say to me before walking out, presumably to find 'Julieta'.

I take this time to get a proper look at the room. The wall were a bright yellow colour, the same as Camilo's ruana; there were picture frame around the room, photos of the madrigal family. I soon noticed a chameleon plush on the bed, "Awww!" I immediately pick it up and hug it. after taking in the look of the room, I realise why it seems familiar to me, "this must be Camilo's room" I smile to myself. A few minutes later Camilo returns with a plate of arepa's, "here, you should eat these, mi tia Julieta made them, they should heal your physical state." he places he plate in front of me as I smile at him. "You have a very nice room, the chameleon plush is adorable Cami," i say, taking a bite of one of the arepas.

They look at me with slight shock on their face, "did you just call me 'Cami'?" he asks quickly. My eyes widen slightly, "yeah, do you not like it? I could call you something else!" I respond fast, worried I had upset them. he shakes his head "it's not that, it's just that's what you called me before the accident," they explain, smiling fondly. "Oh that must be why it felt so comfortable to say that" I giggle slightly and continue to eat the arepas, feeling a warmth spread throughout making the pain fade away. "So, mi flor, what should we do to restore your memories?" they ask me. 'Mi flor..that name is so familiar....' suddenly I start feeling light headed as memories flood back into my head, but only memories of Camilo. All of a sudden everything goes dark and I hear Camilo shout my name, "Y/N!!"

I'm so sorry this chapter took so long, I've been struggling to motivate myself to write the story, and I haven't really had ideas of what to write.
