No Bruno

-+-Third POV-+-

"Are you sure this is safe? This is a two story building we're standing on." Bruno had a swirl of uncertainty in his voice. "Everyone is still asleep, we could go back still."

No, Y/n thought to themself, I've been doubting life too much lately. This will only make me start panicking.

"No. It's okay. We'll live. We just need to find out where he is, take him, and bring him here for Abuela to deal with. It's fool proof!" Y/n laughed a little. God, what am I doing.

"If you say so. Now how do you suppose we get down?"

"Mirabel and I come up here, like, all the time. We hid a rope down that corner in the gutter so if we need to, we have a safe way of getting down if someone is at the balcony. No one else knows about our secret, so you have to keep it or I'll break your legs." Y/n glared at him and he quickly nodded.

They both trekked across the side of the roof until they were at the very back corner. On the way there, Y/n had told Bruno about how going through the front door when sneaking out is terrible because someone could be up and the front door is visible to any main part of the house.

Y/n secured the rope onto the gutter and yanked it. Very secure. And so they made their way down the rope.

As soon as their feet grazed the grass below, all the stress lifted off their shoulders for just a split second. They held their hand on their chest for a bit before they gave Bruno a thumbs up.

He hesitated at first, but then he slowly climbed down. He was a few feet off the ground before he lost his grip and he fell. He landed on his hip and he started groaning like an old person.

"No. No Y/n, I-I can't do this. I really want to help you but I really don't think I can. Please just come back to casita with me, I don't need you getting hurt too, kid." Bruno tried to convince them, but they shook their head.

"No, it's okay. You can go back but I need this. I need to find out what happened to mom and if chasing Alejandro is what gets me answers, then I might as well put on some running shoes."

Bruno sighed, he wanted to protest and tell them all the dangers but they'd be there for the rest of the night. He knew how much they wanted this and there was no stopping them now.

Bruno told them which mountain the cave was in. "Come back home when you're done. Be smart, make me proud, kid." And with that, he made his way back to the front of the house.

Y/n knew they could do it. They could do anything for Pete's sake because I'm the writer and I have no plan whatsoever! The point is that they could've gone back and went to bed but that's not what was meant for them.

Y/n is a L/n and L/n's don't quit. Y/n had the power to do many things and being a bad bitch was one of them. Quitting was not.

So, with their new found awesomeness and no Bruno stopping them, they made their way over to the small mountain behind casita.
