Encanto : mirabel leaves

messed up

Hugo

He  just completed my four mile run now he is going to train with a sword . Oh yeah, he likes swordfighting , he came in the arena as he did thrice every week to train with practice dummies that airam had made using his powers .  as always a few girls in the town gathered near the arena ,  he had been more agressive than usual lately , maybe it was because of his confused emotions , it had been a month since mirabel had started living in the town . When he met her he had been mesmerized by her beauty , but it wasn't anything serious as he had seen a lot of beautiful girls but what attracted him more was the sweet sarcastic way she talked , her cooking or the way she interacted with others . He shook his head but couldn't get mirabel out of his head , he really didn't want to admit that he had fallen for her , he was desperately trying to find a reason to not fall for her , but even her imperfections were so beautiful that he wasn't able to find a reason to not love her . Today he entered the arena and saw mirabel , he didn't know why but that made him happy for some reason . She was talking to Felicia a girl she had become friends with he caught a few words of their conversation .

“cia ,did you really drag me here to watch hugo slay some stupid dummies ? , I could be doing much better things
Oh hugo can cut a dummy with a sword , and he is so strong” said mirabel rolling her eyes

Felicia lightly smacked her arm  and said “mira , just watch a bit and your lo—”

He wasn't able to hear more as the movable dummies charged towards him mirabel looked at him in concern , which made him happy, he smirked and quickly tackled the dummy , three others charged towards him , he  got rid of them with practiced ease. Then four others charged towards him his sword clases with one , as he flipped the other with his free hand and grabbed it's sword he now had two swords as he fought  two dummies at once they  made a few deep cuts on his shoulders , which  didn't affect him that much as he slayed the two in one move . At the end the girls ran towards him and began fangirling , admiring his skills , a few moments later mirabel came up to him . Yes now she will become a typical fangirl .
He thought , mirabel came to him eyes filled with concern and brought out a first aid kit
She smiled at him , eyes still shining with concern as she calmly applied antiseptic and said “you should be careful about these cuts , especially from iron . The could easily be infectious” she inspected the dressing in satisfaction and said “That was cool what you did there , can you teach me ?”

Wait ! Never once in his life had a fangirl cared about him when he got cuts from training . Then asked him to teach her swordfighting . So mirabel was not a typical fangirl he began dreaming about the good things about mirabel and shook his head to get those things out of his mind . Mirabel looked offended , she got up and said “look if you think that I can't learn because I'm a girl —”

“no , no , no I was thinking about other things , spaced out . I will teach you swordfighting”
He said

Mirabel's face brightened up and she said “thank you, thank you, thank you, i will ask Cleo to come too , then maybe we can be called the slashing trio , or maybe the fantastic swordfighting trio or. . . ”
She kept blabbering more names .
He felt a little disappointed when mirabel said that Cleo would be coming along , then he wondered what would happen if he and mirabel were alone.
Realisation hit him as he thought Oh my gods!  I have fallen for mirabel.
He felt happiness and sadness at the same time as he came to terms with the realisation .

Mirabel

Ughhh! Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Mirabel thought this as she left the arena . She had always wanted to learn swordfighting . She had accidentally blurted it out , she couldn't stand the thought of what would occur if she and hugo were to be alone so she had said that Cleo would be coming along too . She plopped down on her bed and screamed into a pillow , why did she have to be like this ?

Elsewhere

This is two months after mirabel began living in the new town and one month since the family got to know that mirabel was alive . Bruno had tried to do the ritual again but it was unsuccessful , julieta was distraught, Dolores had tried to hear mirabel but couldn't hear more than snippets of her conversation . That gave the family some reassurance . 
As they gathered on the dining table Dolores said “I often heard mirabel scribbling and saying that she  is a good artist .”

“Of course she is ,  you should've  seen the drawings she used to do when she was younger she would often show them to me” said Augustin ,he then frowned “ I think it was about two years ago , mirabel didn't show me anything and to think that she used to show me those everytime”

“really ? Where is the sketchbook ?” asked Camilo.

Antonio shook his head and said “mirabel said that it was girl stuff and if boys ever read it then they will become a girl”

The family smiled and at his innocence .

“mirabel fooled you mate” said Camilo shaking his head .
He turned to the rest and said “anyway , where is it”

“she took it with her.” said Bruno

Camilo looked a bit surprised “of all the things she chose a diary ?”

The girls exchanged looks all knowing well what a teenage girl's diary looked like .
They continued eating as the boys spent the rest of their day trying to figure out why mirabel took the diary with her.
