Firstly I just want to say the support on this story is AMAZING, I am so grateful for each and everyone of you. 


"You're going on your honeymoon!" Alma says happily

"Now?" I ask and Camilo laughs nervously
"Si"

"We're not ready" Camilo says

"Well get ready, both shower, Y/n can use my bathroom" Dolores says and we walk inside

"Does this seem..." I start

"Sudden" Camilo finishes and I nod, memories of the conversation flood to my brain, my cheeks heat up. We walk up "Hey did anyone talk to you about having kids?" Camilo asks, as I gather my clothes
"My Mom, you?" I ask
"My parents" He looks away
"I'm just telling you this now, I don't want kids yet" I say and he sighs
"Oh thank god!" He exclaims and hugs me "I'm not ready" I giggle
"You got time" I kiss his cheek and walk out. I shower and get dressed, long sleeve white shirt and a sun yellow skirt. I dry my hair and Dolores walks in
"Hola" I smile
"Hey" She sits on her bed, silence fills the room.

"You probably know why we got married but I just want you to know I had no idea" I say and she sighs

"I know, you were just as clueless as Camilo" She says. I want to know if Alma knew, if Pepa knew. If they were okay knowing the gifts may fade. "They knew" She nods as if reading my mind, relief floods over me
"Oh good" I sigh and she stands up

"I know they seem pushy, but they're coming from a good place. In the end they want you and Camilo to be happy and I think you two are perfect for each other" she hugs me and I hug her back. "Now hurry up, Camilo's ready" She laughs and nudges me out the door, my hair isn't done so it just hangs damp.

"There you are!" Mami says happily, my case already in the wagon. My family hugs me and Mateo gives Camilo a look. I sit in the wagon and it drives away.
"You're brother is scary" Camilo says, looking back.
"Scarier than my cousins?" I tease
"I dunno, being possessed was kinda freaky" he admits and I laugh. He puts his arm around me and I lean on him

"You get used to it" I sigh and he laughs.
"So we're going to get to this mystery place and go to sleep?"
"I guess so" I shrug, I don't really mind. I like quieter spaces where I can keep to myself like at home. Sure I was friendly to people but I find a lot of people loud and I was always an anxious child. Who am I kidding? I'm anxious now, but now my powers are dying so I don't explode as often.

"How's your gift?" Camilo asks, fingers tapping my waist
"It's alright, dying then not. You know on and off" I say

"When was it strong?"
"When Mami told me I need to have kids" I roll my eyes "I'm not getting forced into that" Camilo laughs
"I'm with you there, I like kids but it's way too soon"
"Mm-hmm" I nod and look at the sun, it's starting to set, creating a beautiful orange-yellow color in the sky, the clouds are a deep pink.

I'm happy here, with Camilo without all the commotion. Just us together.

"How long?" Camilo whines and I laugh
"A few more hours" the driver says and Camilo groans.
"Calm down" I smack his arm lightly and he giggles.
"Maybe you could entertain me" he suggest and I look at him, confused.
