ReaderxCamilo//Arranged

Two

"I get out of control too, my gift reflects my mood, when I get stressed I create hurricanes and ruin everything around me. So I get it" she takes my hands in hers. "Camilo helps me relax, control my gift" I smile

"My brother helps me, I don't really let people in here." Not that anyone has ever wanted to come to my home.

"How come?" She asks softly

"I don't like people seeing me in that state, frantic, freaking out" she pulls me into a hug and kisses my hair

"Mija emotions are normal, there would be something wrong if your not stressed every now and then" I smile

"Gracias Señora"

"Pepa" she smiles and we walk out. Camilo eyes us and I ignore him.

"Hola Mami" he says and walks with us. "Where will we be sleeping?" He asks

"We only have two guest rooms" Papi says and Alma smiles at us

"You two can share Y/n's room" she says happily and I force a smile, Camilo's expression drops. My arm sizzles and Pepa rubs my back

"It's okay, slow breaths Mija" I do as she says and the energy subsidies, Camilo looks at me with wonder and we sit down for dinner. They talk about our families, I sit in silence lost in my own thoughts. Camilo has no personality, no emotions. How will I spend the rest of my life with him? My life will be loveless. Tears prick my eyes and I blink them away, Camilo looks at me. His eyebrows are drawn in.

"Gracias" he mutters and I nod. After I clean dinner I go up to my room and clean the floor. Why does he have to sleep in my room? My fingers sizzle as I pull a mattress in, I catch the mattress on fire and I yelp and pat it out. I walk downstairs

"Mateo, can you help me?" I ask poking my head out

"Camilo can" Alma says and the boy follows me up. He pulls the mattress in while I grab blankets and pillows.

"What happened here?" He asks disgusted

"My gift" I mutter "I get stressed a lot"

"Oh" he mumbles and looks away ashamed. 

"Um bathrooms in there" I say and walk out. "I'm going to town" I say and walk away before someone suggests that Camilo comes. Diego runs up to me and hugs me around the waist.

"I missed you today, that guy was following you" he says and carries me away. He puts me down at the lake and holds my hand. My heart swells with love.

"Um I have to tell you something" I say and he takes both my hands "the reason Camilo and his family are here is because they arranged our marriage" I blurt out. Diego looks at me wide eyed

"They're forcing you to get married?" I nod

"I can't go against my family" I whisper and he frowns

"Y/n, I understand. But I don't want to lose you" I smile slightly, tears blurring my vision.

"I don't want to lose you either" he kisses my nose gently

"I still want to be in your life, however that is"

"Diego... no"

"No, I don't care how that is. Friends, acquaintances, I don't care!"

"I can't expect that out of you" I say, my heart breaking

"This is my choice, I want you in my life, I need you in my life" he hugs me.

"I'm sorry" I whisper

"Carino, it's not your fault. I know your family"

"I should go" he kisses my nose again and I walk away, I rush home.

"Hola!" Mami says

"Hola" I say weakly

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I'm just tired. Goodnight everyone" I say, Dolores looks at me sadly and I go upstairs. I close my door and let out a shaky breath, energy blasts out and I turn, Camilo is sitting on the mattress, book in hand. He stands up

"Are you okay?" He asks softly, does he actually care?

"Mmm-hm" I wipe my face and walk into the bathroom. I cry into my hands, my heart aches. I just told the love of my life that I'm marrying someone else. Camilo knocks on the door "I'll be out in a minute" I say and wash my face, I look in the mirror and take a deep breath. I open the door and Camilo stands there. He has a softness in his eye, my eyes water. I muster a smile and he tilts his head at me. I walk past him. He closes the door and Mami opens mine.

"Hola Mija, what happened?" She sits on my bed

"I spoke to Diego, told him about the marriage" my voice breaks

"I'm sorry"

"Are you?"

"Of course I am honey" I wipe my cheeks

"He stills wants to be in my life, Mami, I love him"

"Y/n, you can't love him. You're marrying Camilo."

"I just told the love of my life that I can't be with him. You're not going to have any sympathy for me?" I ask angrily

"You and Camilo will get married. That is final. I'm sorry" She says and I look away

"Goodnight Mami" I open the door for her and she sighs

"Y/n I want what's best for you, Camilo is a wonderful young man"

"Goodnight" she goes to kiss my hair but I step back, she sighs and leaves. I pace over and over. Camilo walks out of the bathroom

"I'm sorry" he says putting his hands in his pockets

"It's not your fault" I say, holding my arms, electricity cracks with every step I take.

"No but still, you love someone else but you can't be with them" his voice is soft and I take a deep breath, I rub my temples my body is sizzling

"Go in the bathroom" I say and he does as soon as he closes the door energy shoots out and I grab my pyjamas, he comes out. I go to the bathroom and get changed. Shorts and a sweatshirt. I put my hair in a bun and walk out. I sit in my bed and turn on my lamp. I write in my notebook and I hear Camilo laugh. He's watching me.

"You have a diary?" He asks, sitting up. I ignore him. I put the book on my nightstand. Camilo looks at me, curiosity sparkles in his eyes and I look out the window, Diego and I would stay up late just looking at each other and making dumb gestures. I sigh and cut the power to my lamp.

"I wasn't done reading" Camilo complains and I roll over, facing the wall. I drift off and wake up to shuffling. I roll over as Camilo pulls on his ruana, I sigh and he walks out.
