Hello! I just watched Encanto and I'm in love with the movie + characters, I was inspired by, Pebble_fizz! I loved their Camilo story so as a fellow fanfic maker for 3+ years I wanted to try. (this is a female reader, sorry!) This takes place after the movie. (this is when they are older, 18+) Note: please drop headcanons, facts, and story ideas! It helps! It makes my story more tasteful to have other people's thoughts made into this little story of mine! (Make sure to vote!) Also my friend made this on my account because of my high following, this is not made by me, Elizabeth.

"Anna dislikes being stuck three-quarters of the way down a chimney. She really does. Not to mention, she's still going round North America, and there's, like, three continents still to get through in about as many hours."

The first time Mel saw Dean was in an elective class called Madness in Literature. He had been sitting a few rows down in his green parka, writing furiously into his notebook. Something about him made her stop and stare, and it felt like she hasn't looked away since. But there is a reason why Dean seldom comes to class. And why he seems reluctant to be her friend. And why he disappears for ages with answering her messages. Mel would have been bothered by all of it, except that she doesn't care. When it comes to Dean, she was willing to overlook a lot of things. This is a short story about two young people trying to find themselves and instead stumbling upon love.
