~Miguel's POV~

I stood there for a couple of minutes. I was nervous! If she didn't like me back, I would feel worthless. Empty, stupid, and idiotic.

"You gonna go and do it chamaco?" Papa Héctor asked. He placed his hand of my shoulder and accidentally touched my neck. He immediately took it off and shook it like it was on fire. "Ay!! You're sweating like you're performing the biggest performance of you're life! Your neck is also burning!"

"Well it kinda is!! I-I want to impress her!" My voice was cracking and my sweating problem wasn't helping.

"Chill out kid!! I have faith in you." Papa Héctor smiled.

"You can do it! You're the best Miguel!"  Socorro came from behind and hugged me.

"Aww. Thanks hermana." I smiled, hugging her back.

"Now go get her!" Papa Héctor laughed.

I went to where the rest of our familia was and looked for Daniella. I soon saw her and ran towards her. She had a confused look on her face and startled too. I tried to stop in time not to trip or anything, but instead of stopping, I tripped and ran right into her.

"Agh!" We both yelled.

"That hurts..." We said, rubbing our heads.

"Why are you in such a rush to get to me Miguel?" I asked. "And why did you bump into me?"

"I-I'm Sorry! I didn't mean to! I tried to stop but I tripped over a patch of dirt and accidentally ran into you. A-are you ok?" I asked nervously.

"Si. But that doesn't answer my first question amigo." Daniella had a groan to her voice. I looked back to Papa Héctor and he gave a motion and mouthed "improvise Mijo!"

"I-I Uh.. needed to show you something! Follow me!" I grabbed her hand and ran towards a spot where no one was.

"M-miguel!" She stuttered fast behind me. Dante was fast behind us and we finally stopped. There was a dark tree with tombs all around. Except they were tombs of forgotten people, so nobody would be around them.

~Daniella's POV~

"This is what you wanted to show me?" I asked, concerned and afraid.

"I actually wanted to show you t-this." Miguel said. He pulled out a guitar and began to sing 'Remember Me'. It was a slow, relaxing version of it, but it wasn't sad. His voice sounded nice, and put a smile on my face.

"Remember me
Though I have to say goodbye
Remember me
Don't let it make you cry
For even if I'm far away I hold you in my heart
I sing a secret song to you each night we are apart

Remember me
Though I have to travel far
Remember me
Each time you hear a sad guitar
Know that I'm with you the only way that I can be
Until you're in my arms again
Remember me"

He finished the song and scooted closer to me. He put the guitar in his lap, and faced towards me.

"D-Daniella?" He stuttered adorably.

"Si mi amigo?" I asked, squeakiness in my voice. I had no idea what was going to happen next.

"I really like you. L-like a-a lot. I've liked you since forever ago and I never had the guts to tell y-you..." He said, holding my hands. "I-I understand if you don't like me back, but just know i really do like you."

I felt my face get extremely hot. H-he actually liked me too? I thought he just thought of me as a friend! I never had the nerve to even tell him and h-he did! I looked down at our hands together and smiled.

"I-I like you too..." I said, looking up at him.

"Y-you do?" He asked.

"Y-yeah. I felt the same way all this time but never had the guts either..." I giggled.

"I'm glad just one of you spoke up. You're too cute." Papa Héctor interrupted.

"PAPA HÉCTOR!!" We both yelled somewhat angrily as we laughed.

"What?! Mijo needed a charmer like me to help him so I was here the whole time!" Papa Héctor smiled.

"You could've waited a little longer..." Miguel chuckled.

"Yeah, yeah. Now, are you going to kiss the girl?" (EYYY A DISNEY REFRENCE) Papa Héctor winked at us.

"N-no!! But uh..." Miguel looked at me. "Will you be my..?" He stuttered.

"Yes Mi amor." I smiled and kissed him on the cheek.

"Awwww..." Everyone cooed.

"Come on guys!!" We laughed.

"Now that, is what I call true love." Mama Imelda smiled.

(A/N: A cute little chapter for the ship!! I was either thinking Miguella or Danguel. I'm leading towards Danguel because I like it kinda better because it has a cool ring to it. Tell me what you guys think!!)
