You've been hiding

-+-Third POV-+-

Mirabel eventually squeezed an explanation out of Y/n. It took a long time though. "Fine, fine! I'll tell you. So, it's really just, I woke up before the sun, felt the need to drink, waltzed down the stairs, gazed upon the Camilo boy, drank some good ol' H2O, put my pretty little tushy on the stairs, and went to the toilet chamber."

"Okay, Shakespeare."

+-+Time skip again - the afternoon, so like 4 hours+-+

Y/n and Mirabel were chatting, as one does, when Mirabel accidentally fell asleep during their conversation. Y/n felt a little lonely, so they went to find someone to hang out with.

They went to the kitchen to see if Julieta was there, but instead they were met with Camilo, who also seemed to be looking for someone. Y/n stared at his back, as he still didn't know they were there.

He finally turned around and immediately froze. He stared into their eyes, he didn't say anything. No one said anything. Y/n knew it was now or never. They knew that if they walked away like they did to everything else, their wouldn't be a second chance.

They were hesitant, but they soon walked up to Camilo and hugged him. And still, no words were exchanged. Camilo was in such a state of shock that he wasn't sure what was going on.

Without thinking, he wrapped his arms around Y/n, it was almost like a silent apology. He stroked their lower back and they both started tearing up.

"I'm sorry I was such a hypocrite. You had feelings for me and you kept them to yourself, and I was mad at you for not telling me sooner, but I did the same. I didn't tell you my feelings and I'm so sorry." Y/n gushed, crying into Camilo's shoulder.

"I'm sorry I was so stupid. I really am sorry. There was this thing telling me to do it and I listened without thinking and it hurt us both. I was acting so reckless an-and stupid that I ruined our friendship. You didn't deserve what I did and I hate that you've forgiven me so quickly. You deserve more time." Camilo's voice was brittle and shaky. It was obvious he was crying a bit too.

Y/n pulled away from Camilo, finally looking into his eyes again. "I don't think I need any more time. What you've given me is more than enough. You've been so concerned about me and I really appreciate it."

Camilo didn't know what to feel, //I also didn't know what to write//, he was just so overwhelmed that his mind went berserk with questions.

He held Y/n's face with his hand. They leaned into it, feeling the warmth of his touch radiating through their entire body. They both smiled at each other. That was until someone interrupted their little moment. 

"So this is where you've been hiding from me."
