Miguel walked through the outskirts of the village as his dad sent him to get groceries. He preferred going to the market on the scenic route as it was less crowded. Which meant less chances of being bothered and more chances of being able to photograph some moments.

As he walked a chameleon was perched on a rock a little off the road. Miguel slowly crept over and took a photo with his Polaroid camera. The camera was a few years old but it did the trick.

He tucked away the photo in his bag and took another. It wasn't this often you saw a chameleon so proudly show off colors. Normally they were camouflaged to their surroundings. But this one was orange despite it standing out on the gray rock it sat on.

Miguel thought about this as he reached the market. As he walked he heard laughter and turned to see what was happening. There was Camilo shapeshifting into many different people while surrounded by kids.

Miguel never really spoke to the Madrigals. Even though he had stated taking their photos at their parties. He'd spoken to Mirabel the most and Julieta a bit when getting food to heal a headache.

As he left a shop he turned back to where Camilo was but the boy was gone now, "Miguel what are you looking at?"

Miguel shook being spooked by the sudden voice so near him and he turned to see his younger sister, Lisa "Nothing much and what are you doing here aren't you grounded?"

At the comment Lisa tensed a little "Yea but yknow how it is being stuck at home. You won't tell dad right?"

"I'll let it slide this time, now get home" with that Lisa ran off. That girls gonna get herself in trouble.

Miguel continued shopping he ran into Mirabel as nodded his head as he passed her by. Having everything purchased he began walking back to his home.

He walked the same route he did before and saw the chameleon again. Except now it was walking through flowers changing colors with every step it took.

Miguel just couldn't not take a photo and quietly went over with his camera taking shots of the chameleon as it went from blue to green then to a shade of purple.

Just as the Chameleon was about to turn pink a voiced called out from behind him "What're you doing over here?"

Miguel turned to see none other the towns chameleon equivalent Camilo running over. He quickly turned back to the flowerbed to see the chameleon had run and hidden being scared by Camilo's voice. Great.

"I was taking photos of a chameleon"

"A chameleon really!" The boy said "where is it though?"

"It was in the flowerbed until you scared it away when you yelled" Miguel said, he was slightly annoyed since he never knew when he would be able to capture a moment like that again.

"Oh that's my bad" Camilo said looking slightly awkward but quickly smiled again "I can help you carry your bags back to your home"

"I can do it myself" Miguel said as he walked back to the bags just wanted to leave but Camilo was quicker and picked up one of the bags.

"I insist" he said and they walked down the road. It was silent between them Miguel didn't feel like talking still slightly annoyed with what had happened "sooo, do you take photos often?"

"Everyday" he said glancing at Camilo only to see him waiting for more information "I've been doing it for years"

"Do you think I could see some of the photos you've taken?"

Seriously? We just met dude. Miguel didn't show others his photos often but didn't want to offend Camilo, he was a madrigal after all, "Maybe another time I've got to start diner once I get home."

Luckily they just arrived in front of Miguel's house, "I can take the bags from here"

Camilo handed the bags over to Miguel. He watched him walk toward his house. The boy had hardly said much during their conversation yet Camilo still found himself wanting to know a bit more "Hey I never got your name!"

"Miguel Gomez" Miguel said in front of his door and turned to face Camilo.

"I'm Camilo"

"I know." Miguel realized that might've been a bit weird to say and felt slightly embarrassed and now really wanted to run inside "I'll see you around"

Camilo was left standing outside. Miguel Gomez huh.
