The Chameleon and his Butterfly

A birthday to remember

The day was March 6th why was that important because it was the birthday of the one and the only Mirabel. Camilo had the date circled for months on his calendar as he had fallen in love with her and he wanted to do something special for her but what?" Abeula had already gifted her a beautiful jewelry set two days prior to the big day, Isabella was sure to give her flowers or her favorite plant whatever she chose, her mother and father were giving her a new sewing machine, yarn needle and thread were going to be given to her by his parents, a book of sewing patterns was to be given by Luisa, Antonio was going to give her a book of other things to sew, and lastly Bruno was going to give her a book on different embroidery ideas and patterns but what could Camilo give her that's when it hit him he'd sing her the song he'd had written for her when at fifteen he discovered that no he didn't just have a crush on her he loved her. Mirabels party was in full swing when Alma suddenly told the crowd to be quiet "I know we all are all here to celebrate the birthday of our lovely and kind Mirabel and since today is her birthday I have an announcement I would like to make Mirabel dear would you come up here please?" She asked and of course Mirabel went to join their grandmother at the top of the stairs "as you all know when Mirabel was five she didn't receive a gift and it took me forever to figure out why but then Casita fell and the candle went out and I know why she didn't get a gift it's because she's the miracle itself she's also going to be the next matriarch when I become too old to run the town and I know she'll do amazing but when Casita was rebuild all of us got our rooms back but then I saw another door that was glowing and fully formed when I looked closer I saw that this house had finally given her a door but when I went to open it, it didn't open and I suspected that it wasn't done yet and I was right as when I went to try the doorknob it opened but I didn't dare look inside because it wasn't my room to look at it belongs to Mirabel and her alone and now on her birthday I would like for her to open her door" she said and as a curtain of flowers opened up to reveal a fully formed door showing Mirabels face and after a little push from Abeula she opened her door and everyone was amazed at what was in it inside was all of her things plus all of her new gifts from everyone in the family the new door was celebrated and soon after Mirabel thanked everyone for their gifts soon it was time for Camilo to give her his gift he has snuck off to his room to grab his guitar "Cami what are you still doing up it's late?" Mirabel asked him "I need to give you your present" he said to her "aww Cami you didn't have to give me anything, when did you start playing music?" She asked him "fifteen" Camilo answered her "oh you are too sweet you are going to sing to me?" Mirabel "yes actually I wrote you a song" he told "aww cami can I hear it?" She asked "of course Mira" Camilo said as he started to play.

I was a boy at the age of fifteen when I realized that I was in love before this time I thought it was just a crush but when I turned fifteen and nothing changed I knew it was love. I knew it was love when I looked into her beautiful brown eyes hidden behind glasses green as limes and I couldn't stop myself from staring. But she turned out to be the kindest and most beautiful woman I know loved by all who knew her especially by one shapeshifter named Camilo and who's the girl that's captured the heart of the boy who was so overworked her name is Mirabel.

Camilo finished the song and to say Mirabel was surprised was an understatement he loved her? "Oh Cami I love you too" Mirabel said "really?" Camilo said "yes" Mirabel said and Camilo put his guitar down in a corner and took her in his arms and gave her a sweet kiss "can I stay with you tonight?" Camilo asked "yes" she said once the two of them were ready for bed and cuddled in her bed "Cami do you think I can do it, be the next matriarch?" She asked "yes" Camilo said "but everyone will expect so much from me I don't know if I can handle that kind of pressure" Mirabel said as she interwove her hand with his "Mira" Camilo said as he took his free hand and with his finger made Mirabel look at him " Mira you can handle it you are going to be amazing" Camilo said "thank you Cami it helps a lot" Mirabel said "of course Mira my beauty" Camilo said "Cami will you sing me to sleep?" Mirabel asked him "of course" Camilo said and he sang her the song he wrote for her until her breathing evened out and she fell asleep. Camilo took her into his arms and she in her sleep wrapped her arms around him and they fell asleep. Years later it was revealed that their love was so pure nothing broke it.
