Little Ways

Summary: Camilo has always liked Y/N but doesn't have the courage to confess his love, instead he shows it in little ways.

Ever since Camilo met Y/N he couldn't stop thinking about their future together. His love for Y/N started like a seed that bloomed into a beautiful flower. He’s Camilo Madrigal, a playful, cheerful, outgoing, and confident person but when he sees Y/N his knees tremble. His family caught his action and knows what's going on with him. Silently teasing him whenever you are around him.

It all started when he saw you walking into the Casita with Antonio and your brother, Leo. Antonio and Leo shared an intimate interest in animals leading them to create a friendship. You were bored that time and your mother assigned you to look after Leo as he didn't trust your brother. He’s a naughty child and your mother is afraid that he might get into trouble with the Madrigals or break something important. You didn't mind it tho since you love babysitting children. 

Pepa had a rainbow above her head when he saw Leo with Antonio. Her hands are on her chest looking at her youngest son lovingly. Antonio is a shy and quiet kid and doesn't like going out. Seeing her son make a friend with someone makes her heart pound. You notice the rainbow and your eyes land on Pepa. You waved your hand as a way of saying hello and nudged Leo to do the same. Pepa smiled at the both of you as you all went to Antonio’s room.

Hours passed and it was Dinner time. All of you didn't notice the time as you were all having a great time. Playing hide and seek and petting the animals. Antonio started to love you and you’re now considered his friend. When Abuela shouted that it was time for Dinner, Antonio dragged the both of you. Leo laughed loudly as the Stairs became flat. All of you slid down and stumbled.

Pepa already knew you as your parents are farmers, and sometimes you would go with them to deliver fruits and vegetables. The Madrigals love your crops. As you reached the ground floor you grabbed Leo and bid goodbye to them. Leo’s glaring as you gave him the look. 

“You’re already going?” Pepa asked. Clouds formed above her head. You scratched the back of your neck and said to her that you were glad that you and your brother were welcome to the Casita but it was getting late and you needed to go home. Pepa insisted as he look at Antonio that started to have glossy eyes and was on the verge of tears. “Why don't you join us for dinner before you go home? I'm sure your parents won't mind right, Leo?” 

Leo nodded as he looked at Antonio. Both of them gave you puppy eyes and it's your weakness so you just agreed. Pepa also wants to get to know Leo more. Casita gave both of you a seat. You sat beside Dolores and your brother. Camilo’s across from you.

As you all started eating, Camilo saw how you take care of your brother. From wiping the food beside his mouth to slicing the meat for him. Camilo’s lucky that you didn't notice that he’s been staring for so long but is also unlucky because Dolores and Isabella did.

“Just took a picture, Camilo.” Isabela teased. Camilo choked on his food, shape-shifting from you and to Isabela then back to himself. All the Madrigals were staring at him. Dolores and Isabela try their best not to laugh at the boy. 

“Camilo, don't play games on the table.” his father scolded him. You and Camilo’s eyes met but he eventually cut it off as he noticed his cheeks turned into a bright shade of pink. Dolores kicks his foot under the table and teasingly raises both of her eyebrows.

When you and Leo got up to leave, he also got up but sat back again when his family started to look at him. His original plan was to escort you outside, but he got caught and realized he was being obvious. Eventually, they all find out what's happening with him and gave him a teasing look. You thanked them for having dinner and bid goodbyes. As soon as you leave the house the teasing begins.

As the day passed Leo and Antonio spent time together. This means he sees you often. That's when the friendship began. He found you interesting. He sees how you care for your family, especially your mother. As a mama’s boy, his heart pounds.

What he loves more about you is that you never judge him and love his pranks even if it's horrible. Some people are sensitive. He loves that you don't overreact to small things. Whenever he had a problem or was just really feeling down, you focused on him and comforted him. You are the reason why he always sleeps late as he can't stop thinking about you. On how your eyes brightened his days and how your dress swayed whenever you and he were dancing. You're just perfect. Sometimes he even wishes that you meant those words you said whenever you and he flirt jokingly…cause he means those words and pet names. 

However, he didn't know how to show his love for you. Whenever he tried to say it, he just stuttered. He's nervous and wrecked. He didn't want to that both of you built. Especially since his brother and your brother are friends, if you reject him, things would be very awkward for the both of you. He’s afraid that he would not only ruin the friendship you both have but also Antonio and Leo. If confessing his feelings for you would ruin your friendship, might as well keep it. 

So instead of telling you what he felt, he shows it. From taking the blame when you get yourself in trouble, massaging your shoulders when you complain you’re tired from your chores, telling you to compare hands just so he could feel your touch, catching your tears with his fingers and wiping them away, helping you with your chores even tho he had one, bringing you some food

REQUESTS ARE OPEN AGAIN

After months of hiatus, I finally came back. I'm sorry about that guys, but here I am… going back to writing and posting fanfics. A lot has happened to me in these past months. One of the reasons I got inactive here on Tumblr is that I am busy with my school work but it was all worth it because the hard work paid off. I became an honor student. And then I submitted a manuscript to a publishing company and I'm so thankful that they accepted it. I'm going to be a published author! It all still feels like a dream to me. I really couldn't believe they accepted that like there are so many great writers that write better than me and they chose ME?! . I’ll update you guys in the future when I got the book!

And now, I am so excited to announce that I will write for these particular fandoms: Encanto, Harry Potter, Maze Runner, and Little Women. I have many movies and tv series on my to-be-watch list and I'm hoping, at some time in the future, I will write for those.

I'm really thankful for those pips who kept reading my fanfics here. I never really thought people would like it. I mean, I didn't expect it. I was just like "yeah, I'm going to post whatever makes me happy". YOU GUYS ARE INCREDIBLE!!

[euphoriaofmidnight]

OMG Thank you for reading my work! I hope you like this and im sorry for the delay♡

All Too Well x Lover

Isabela grew sadder every day since she got tied up with someone she didn't love. Don't get me wrong, Mariano was a sweet, charming, and loving young man, but they didn't click. She tried so hard to love the boy, but it just didn't work out. Isabela appreciated Mariano’s effort to be a good husband for her, but Isabela knew that it was all useless and worthless. The young man deserves someone better—so she did.

They had this conversation with Mariano, and the boy was very understanding, and he got Isabela’s point. Both of them deserve better, but Mariano secretly didn't want to let go of the girl.

The pressure kept growing, and she didn't want those. She‘s expected to be the perfect wife for the boy. She was waking up earlier than home and cooking food for her husband and even more. And don't forget that they expect five babies. She knows that opening her mouth to say her thoughts and feelings about the marriage will ruin her perfect golden child and wife reputation, so she goes along with what Abuela and Mariano want.

To say that she was tired of all of this was an understatement. She was exhausted by all this, and she wanted to be freed. She felt like a puppet, following this and that and doing the things she didn't want to do. Whenever she did the things she used to love, like dancing and spending time with her sisters, Isabela was told to stop being so childish, for she now has a husband.

So she just let her feelings caged into her heart and followed the orders.

It was dinner night, and both families gathered together. The whole night, she’s quiet and serving her husband. Her smile was forceful and fake. She had lost a part of herself. She sighed deeply and tapped her fingers at the table.

"Are you okay?" her thoughts were cut off by Mirabel, who seemed to notice Isabela's changes. She gulped and slightly nodded. Her sister's answer didn't convince Mirabel, but she just let it slip off. Maybe she’s not in the mood.

‘I might be okay, but I'm not fine at all,’ Isabela thought. She badly wanted to say those words, but she knew she couldn't, so she just stayed quiet—feeling out of place. The whole night she didn't join any conversation. Sure she answered every question that was thrown at her and agreed with some things but other than that, she just shut her mount, zipped it, and threw away the key.

The only thing she wanted was to go upstairs and go there. Mariano needed to be with her. But when she glanced at the boy, he was chatting happily with her family members. Isabela gulped and kept moving in her chair, giving Mariano signals, but the boy didn't get it. She just sighed deeply.

After dinner, Isabela spent the whole night staring at the room's ceiling. She felt paralyzed by the time. She sighed deeply and turned to the other side of the bed. This is her fate now, and there’s no backing out. She needs to accept that this is her life forever, and she needs to get used to it. Isabela thought that marrying Mariano would not affect her, but it did. At first, she expects that she'll still live her life like she used to, but the difference is that she's married. The perfect golden wife replaced the perfect golden child. She even considered herself lucky that nothing happened between her and Mariano.

“Time won't fly. It's like I'm paralyzed by it.

I want to be my old self again, but I'm still trying to find it.”

Her thoughts were drowning her, and tears started to escape her eyes. Her heartfelt like it was being squeezed. A lump forms in her throat as she holds her mouth to muffle her cries. Tears wetted her pillow, but she didn't care. Little did she know, Mariano was awake and listening to her moans.

The next day, Mariano decided to talk to Isabela openly. She said all of her thoughts that kept her awake at night. The ideas that kept running into her mind. She became honest with the boy about all of this.

"You deserve better, so am I," she thought. Isabella knew that, and she knows who it is; Dolores Madrigal.

Long story short, they decided to cut the thing that kept each other hurting. Forcing the relationship would never work. They decided to have a divorce. The news shocked the whole town, especially their families, but they couldn't do anything. It was both of their decisions, and deep down, they know that both aren't meant for each other. Abuela was furious at that time, but her children and other grandkids were defending them both, so she surrendered and let them have their own lives. Half of the town was disappointed, but half of it seemed okay with the sudden divorce. After all, it’s not their lives.

Both of them packed their things in each other's house.

Isabela packed Mariano’s things that were in her room and vice versa. She smiled a little as she knew she was finally free, not from the gossip and townspeople's stares tho. That's way much better than having to raise her future children and live the rest of her life with the man she didn't love.

A loud knock in her room interrupted her thoughts. She slowly opened the door and saw Mariano standing there. She opened the door widely and pointed at the boxes. The boy gladly walked in and got his things. Isabelas' brows furrowed as she didn't see any of her things, and Mariano noticed it.

“Oh, I'm just going to mail back your things to you,” he said. Isabela nodded and closed the door. As soon as Mariano reached his own house, he sighed deeply and went to his drawer. She looked left and right to make sure no one looked at him and put Isabela's scarf on his neck. He can still smell the girl on it.

What Isabela didn't know is that Mariano chose to be selfish and kept her old scarf.

A few days later, she decided to wander around the town and spend time with herself. After all, she deserves peace. The townspeople chose not to bother, and she was thankful for that. She went to the church as she’s very grateful that her family accepted her decision. Her smile faded as her foot stepped into the church. A memory of walking there where the nightmare began flashed her mind. She shook her head and went straight home.

The girl walked alone, enjoying the breeze. She smiled a little as she knew she was finally free, not from the gossip and townspeople's stares, though. But that's way much better than having to raise her future children and live the rest of her life with the man she didn't love. She knew they were silently judging her correct links, but she didn't care.

Her peaceful walk was cut off by Y/N, who tapped her shoulders. She faces the girl with a broad smile that can make anyone's day. Her eyes glanced at the bouquet of carnations she was holding. She gladly takes it from the girl's hands. The moment both of their hands touched, butterflies erupted from her whole stomach—no, it's the entire animals on the farm.

Anyone who saw Y/N giving Isabela a flower would probably think she was going crazy. Who the hell would give someone flowers which can make their own in a snap?

"Hey, you probably didn't know me, but I'm Y/N, and I just wanted to say that I'm so proud of you that you cut off the connections with Mariano." Y/N started. "You know I've read once that you shouldn't force any relationship, or you would look dumb. If it doesn't work out, then it didn't work out."

Isabela giggled at her words. She does look dumb. For the first time, she smiled without forcing or faking it. She found comfort in the girl. Her eyes shone like new bloom flowers, and the one, the bees, and butterflies would probably get in to get the sweetest honey the world would probably get.

“Thank you,” Isabela brought the flowers near her nose and smelled it. The fragrance filled her nose that made her calm. “I like it.” she smiled sweetly at the girl who was looking in her eyes, filled with worry. It suddenly faded as Isabela’s statement.

“You're welcome. I hope you like it coming from someone who can already grow them,” both of them laugh.

“Effort is what counts.”

“Bet that was Mariano's lacking for,” Y/N joked as she winked at the girl. A blush covered her whole face as flowers grew on her hair. She felt her entire face burning red. Y/N cleared her throat and glanced at the girl who was glowing red. “River? Us?” she asked. Fingers fiddled in the hem of her clothes. At this moment, she knew she wanted to spend the rest of her life with Y/N. Indeed, she's different from Mariano.

She nodded her head as a response. As they all say, “All’s well that ends well to end up with you.”

warning/s: slight angst at first but happy ending in the ending (ofcourse)

word count: 1.7k

Sorry for being inactive. I got busy lazy

You and Isabela had been in a secret relationship for almost a year now. No one knows except Dolores who obviously can hear all of the things that have been going on. She didn't say a single word though. Hiding a relationship is fine for you. You know that Isabela needs to retain her ‘“golden child” reputation and be perfect.

Everything was fine for the both of you not until Mariano and the De Guzmans came. Hearing that she was going to marry Mariano makes you furious and at the same time hurt. You love Isabella so much and you know she would do anything for you and her family. But what if she only needs to choose one between the two?

“We can't stay like this,Isa.” you said and she sighed. Both of you are sitting under the tree in the back of the river where no one usually comes except for the both of you ofcourse. “I love you but I don't think we can stay like this.”

Both of you are having a serious conversation. Her marrying that big dumb hunk was a bad idea but what can you do? You’re not as powerful as the De Guzmans and the Madrigals. But you know she doesn't deserve this. Marriage should be between two people that love each other and it's you and Isa—not Mariano.

She rested her head unto yours and snuggle into you.

“Whatever happens,I love you okay?” she said and gave you a tender kiss. A tear escaped from her eyes and you gently wiped it,kissing her forehead.She could stay forever like this. With you,she feels like a dove—free to fly as far as she can. With you,nothing matters. It's like two peas in a pod. She feels safe inside your arms. Only her lover could make her feel like this.

Days passed and the news that she's going to marry Mariano spread in town like a plague. As they say,news has wings. You know you can't do anything and accept it. Maybe in the next lifetime you too would be together? But this feels wrong. You ran your hands to your head and watched the people cheer for the ‘couple’.

This made you feel bad so you decided that the next moment you saw Isabela,you decided to cut ties with her. It's between you and between the whole town—the universe rather. You spent the whole night staring at the ceiling thinking about the move you're going to make. You know there's going to be an impact on both of you. On the other hand,you also know that being with her while betrothed to another is a big pressure and hard and you don't want your Isa to get into big trouble if anyone ever finds out. You’re thankful to Dolores for she didn't utter a single word.

Sneaking out just to see you was hard for Isabela especially now that she’s already engaged and all of the town's eyes are on her. Good for her that she’s already used to it and knows exactly what to do. She even gets help from Camilo who secretly knows about the relationship. Typical camilo who loves to eavesdrop and shapeshift to others and people accidentally spilling secrets to the person Camilo shapeshifted to.

When isabela got there a big smile appeared to her and she seemed to forget all of this mess. At the moment she saw you,all of her problems were gone. You are the only one that matters to her and she would do absolutely EVERYTHING for you. Her heart leaps up with joy and butterflies appear on her stomach. You didn't even do anything.

But it all faded when she saw you sitting under a tree and not approaching her like you used to. Before,you jump into her and embrace her with a big hug and pepper her face with kisses. You even tickle her. You just sat there and focused everywhere but not on her. She slowly walked unto you and sat beside you.

After she sat beside you she let out a heavy sigh. She rests one of her hands on your knees and looks at your eyes. Both of your eyes met and you saw her eyes full of concern, you immediately looked away. Looking at her eyes made you question your decision and thinking about backing out. When she saw you look away and gulped,one of her hands cupped your chin and forced you to look at her.

“Is there something wrong?” she asked softly. One hand caressing your shoulder and one hand on your cheeks. Her eyes searching for an answer in your eyes. Finally,you look into her eyes and mutter the words she's afraid you’d say.

“Let’s break up.”

Silence.

There was silence.

Slowly,Isabela moves her hands away from you. Eyes being glossy and tears beaming in the corner of her eyes. Her world faded away by your words. She felt…nothing,still can't comprehend your words.

“Are you serious?” she whispered. You just nodded at the broken girl sitting in front of you. Silence filled the both of you again. A few seconds passed,and you decided to break them.

“I’m really sorry Isa—”

“Don't be,” she stood up. “I can see this coming. We are nothing but a forbidden love aren't we?”

To say you are dumbfounded was an understatement. You can't even open your mouth to talk. For you this was more than a forbidden love but still,it is.

“Love,please let me explain,” you said to her as she slowly walked away.

“Don't call me that,” she cried. Tears running down her face and like it's having a race.

“Isa, I swear it's the best for both of us. We can't stay like this forever. I can't stay like this forever.” you stand up. Hands holding her to stop her from walking away. She laughed bitterly.

“Best? Are you sure? At this moment you’re breaking me! Don't you think it doesn't hurt me? That I can't even be with the person I love?”

She took her hands away from me and wiped her tears. She fixed her posture and raised her head.

“Isabela we need to! Don't you think it's not hard for me to see you getting tied up with that wedding and having a hard time being with me?” Both of you are sobbing right now. Face stained with tears. “I love you and you know that but we need to do it.”

You cupped her face with both of your hands and forced her to look at you. She holds your hand and melts into your touch.

“Please don't leave me” voice shaking from the pain she's feeling right now.

“We need to. It's the best for you.”

“But you were the only person I can show my true self to”

“You can do it, Isa. I believe in you. It's going to be hard but you know that I love you right? And I will until my last breath. We can still be friends after this.” you convince her. Giving up,she slowly nodded and hugged you. Both of you sobbing at each other. You watch the sunset together,cherishing every moment you have with Isabella.

The wedding day finally came and all the townsfolk are attending except for you who's sitting in the place you and Isabela used to hang out with. After all,this place reminds you of everything about her.

Your peace was interrupted by none other than Dolores Madrigal. She quietly sat beside you.

“We need to do something about the wedding.” she said. Your head immediately went up looking at her. “And we have no time. It's now or never.”

You look at her like she has 10 heads and a small body. Brows furrowed together. She just rolled her eyes at you.

“I love Mariano,okay?”

Those 4 words made you become hopeful. At Least you have someone with you. Both of you are rushing to the wedding and wasting no time. There,you saw Isabela in front of Mariano. Both of your eyes met. You can see that she also didn't want this. You gave her a look that saying that everythings going to be okay. Both of you talking through the eyes. It was all cut off when the preacher said.

“Should anyone present know of any reason that this couple should not be joined in holy matrimony, speak now or forever hold your peace”

There's the silence and you know it was the last chance you have. Both you and Dolores stand in the middle of the aisled. All of the eyes are in both of you. Isabela and Mariano widened their eyes. Seeing both of their loved ones stopping their weddings. All the guests are now looking at the both of you and whispering to each other. To say that Abuela was shocked was an understatement. All of them were. Pepa almost fainted and tried to calm herself but as she saw Dolores beside you,she immediately calmed down. She picked up the puzzles one by one.

You look at Dolores who gave you a smile. Both of you are determined to get your lover back. Camilo even gave you a thumbs up. you let out a deep breath before you give your speech.

“I am not the kind of person,who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion. But you are not the kind of girl,who should be marrying the wrong person,” You started. Isabela’s eyes are getting teary. She ran and hugged you,crying. You look at Dolores and give her the sign to speak.

“Mariano,you talk so loud,you take care of your mother and you make her proud. You write your own poetry every night when you go to sleep and I'm seizing the moment, so would you wake up and notice me?” Mariano’s heart melted to Dolores’ confession. He ran to her and also hugged her.

“Let’s get Married,” he said.

In the end,you,Isabela,Dolores,and Mariano ended up getting married at the same time.

A Blank Plate

part 1 , part 2

***

The next day, you confronted him. It was all the wrong timing as he was having a bad day and just wanted to sleep, but you blocked his way.

"Why did you put the flowers in the trash? I thought you already forgave me. "

"I'm sorry Y/N, but the damage you did to me is permanent. I guess we’ll stay forever like we used to be, you know? Like how we are after that gift ceremony. "

"Camilo, please let’s talk about our issue in a calm and peaceful way. Just this once, don't f*cking ignore me. It’s been months! " You shouted.

"You hurt me for years. Do you think it's easy? My God, Y/N, can you stop being so annoying for once? You're being selfish,"

You shook your head due to the hurt that you're feeling right now. And laughed bitterly. Your stomach feels like it was filled with worms. You feel very very sick due to his word choice.

You turn your head to face him, "I know I’ve hurt you, but you don't have to do the same to me."

With that, you left. You decided to give Camilo the space that he needed. You thought that it was best to give him space to let him gather all of his thoughts. Dolores talked to Camilo about the misunderstanding that's going on between the two of you. He just sighed and buried his face on the pillows.

“Be kind to Y/N and give her another chance. You might regret it later, and by that time, you are the one asking for a last chance.”

On those days when you decide to give Camilo the space that he deserves, you spend your time trying to make a Ruana for Camilo with the help of your prima Mirabel. It's yellow, which is his favorite color, with a circle pattern, the shape of an arepa. You also embroidered his name and the quote "mi hermano chameleon".

When you finished it, you gave it to him, but he turned it down. It's not surprising, though. You are expecting this, but you still want to try. What's wrong with trying? Still, you kept pursuing him and chasing him like a dog. Eventually, you had the biggest argument you ever had.

It would be better if you stayed away from me. Camilo said. "I just can't accept it all."

"But I did everything I could!"

"Your efforts didn't change anything. It was all useless." Camilo, you left me a crying kid.

After your confrontation, you decided to make one last effort so that Camilo could live a happy life without someone who's an inconvenience. An effort that would change his mind and everybody's life. An effort that you think will make Camilo happy. After the dinner, where everybody was in their own rooms, you quietly packed your bags and put on the ruana you made for Camilo. With that, you bid goodbye to Casita.

For every step you take, a piece of your heart breaks. Tears flowing like a waterfall Your eyes were blurry and you couldn't even see where you were going. The only thing you have on your mind is that you want to disappear.

You could follow Bruno's step and hide in the walls like he did when he 'left' the house, but you don't want to.You don't want to see how much fun they have when you are gone. You wanted to permanently disappear...

Sunrise came, and you were in the middle of the forest. Big trees surround you, and tall grass makes it hard to walk. But you keep trying. You know there’s a life outside Encanto and you want to discover it. Suddenly, you stopped to look above as a rainbow appeared in the sky. You smiled bitterly. You know, they would be happy without you.

On the other hand, Pepa was giggling as it was her and Felix's wedding anniversary. Felix always prepares surprises for Pepa when it's their anniversary, but this time it was the opposite. Pepa decided to take turns. Pepa decided she was the one who was going to surprise her husband. As soon as the sun rose, she went outside to prepare for the big day. A big smile on her face.

Mirabel and Dolores woke up feeling a little ill. It's not literal sickness, but they felt something was wrong. Even Bruno felt that, but he didn't mind. Maybe because it was just because he's still not used to interacting with people. But it's almost been a year now!

Both Mirabel and Dolores stand up. They’re not together, but they move in unison. Their faces have beads of sweat. If they were Pepa, they would probably have a thunderstorm right now. They decided to look outside, and it was a joyous day, and there was a rainbow, but it felt... wrong.

Casita gave Mirabel a hint by swinging her closet door loudly, but she didn't get it. Casita doesn't want to really say it—knowing that Mirabel might panic. The floors moved, causing both of the girls to move. In a snap, Mirable and Dolores faced each other.

Both of them see each other's faces sweating and panting.

"Dolores, you might think I'm crazy, but I felt strange. " Mirabel started. Dolores' eyes widen. She felt the same way.

"Mira, you might also think that I'm crazy, but I feel something... bad," she said, whispering the last words. Little did they know, Bruno passed by.

"Both of you did too? I thought I was the only one. " The girl's eyes widened at their tio’s confession. Their conversation was interrupted when Abuela shouted that it was time for breakfast.

"Maybe Julietas' food will make us all better," Bruno suggested, and his two primas nodded, but it was the opposite.

"Why isn't Y/N here?"Mirabel thought. Sometimes she didn't eat breakfast. It was all nothing.She tries to calm herself down.

After breakfast, the three gathered in one space.

"The food didn't make me feel better."

"There was really something going on. Maybe the miracle’s dying again. "They all looked at the candle, but it was still flaming. Mirable kept quiet while the two kept talking.

"I didn't see Y/N at breakfast," Mirabel whispered.

"She sometimes didn't go to breakfast. There's nothing wrong..."

This time it was Dolores' time to turn quiet. She was focused.

She looked at the both of them. "I cant hear Y/N."

At this point, they all panicked.

"Well, you basically hear everything. Maybe Y/N’s not talking right now. "

"You are right, but I heard Camilo and Y/N fought. It was kind of big. " Dolores said.

Little did they know you were in the middle of nowhere, not knowing where to go and the place was unfamiliar to you. You have been walking for hours. Good for you that you bought your tia’s food so you still have energy to go on an adventure.

Lunch time came and to say that the three were panicking was an understatement. They can't even sit still! The rest of the family also noticed that Y/N was not there and the three were acting weirdly.

"Is there something wrong?" Abuela asked. The three froze.

“NO!” Mirabel…

“NO!” Bruno…

"YES!!" shouted by Dolores. "Y/N’S not here AND I CAN NOT HEAR HER!" she cried out. A cloud formed in her mother's head. The rest of the family rushed into the casita, trying to find Y/N. Some of them are in town. When they found out that you were not in your room, they all went wild. They looked in places you might normally hang out, places you might have been, and finally places you might be able to hide.They even try to find you inside the walls.

Felix is able to calm down his wife.

There's a thunderstorm

Lastly, there's a lot going on in Camilo’s mind right now.

You are now too far from the town this time. The weather was not controlled by Pepa anymore, but you didn't know that. The sun was already setting and the weather was good, assuming that she was really happy when it was the opposite. You didn't cry this time, knowing that it was for their happiness and for the best.

Back in Encanto, they all scattered around. It was thundering, and there was a hurricane happening. No one tried to calm her down. Not even Felix.

"Y/N’S MISSING AND SHE’S IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WILDS!!!" Antonio shouted. Tears flowing in his eyes. There's a big bird that's flying around. That bird is the one who saw you running away. He rushed into his parents and hugged them.

Camilo’s mouth opened widely as he shapeshifted uncontrollably. He can't comprehend anything. The previous fight kept running in his head and her older sister’s advice, which he probably did not listen to. Now he's afraid that it will come true. His hands started shaking. He knows that it was his fault. His knees tremble as tears escape his green eyes.

"It's my fault, it's my fault," he kept repeating to himself.

No one can move from their place after Antonio’s announcement. There are a lot of possibilities that can happen to you. It was already night time and they were worried about you. Where will you sleep? What did you eat today? Have you eaten yet? Is she safe? No one knows. Not even your own parents. They can't even eat peacefully knowing that you could have been starving to death right now.

Camilo wished he could have talked to you calmly. He’s very embarrassed and he’s afraid to admit that it was his fault. He let his pride ruin him. If he could only go back to the past, he would, but he can't.

To say that you are cold is an understatement. You hugged yourself, shaking in the cold. It was a nightmare. You're laying on the cold grass, hugging yourself and the bag that you've bought. The ruana you made wasn't enough to keep you from getting cold. It was already nighttime, and you couldn't see a single thing around you. You can see your breath in thin air as you breathe. At this moment, you can hug a tree, but was too scared that something might bite you considering that you felt blind right now.

You count every breath you release and slowly count how many seconds you have. Your whole body started to feel frozen. A cold wind surrounds your body and embraces you. But instead of feeling cold, you felt... peace. But instead of questioning it, you embrace your death like it's an old friend you've been waiting for your entire life. You felt comfort. For the last time, you took the ruana and touched the embroidered part. You smiled softly and brought it to kiss it. You hugged it for the last time. With that, you left the world with a smile.

Morning came, and the whole family felt empty. Bruno decided to go to his tower and make a vision of you. He brings Mirabel and Dolores with him to accompany him. They were all quiet and waiting.

Bruno began the ritual nervously. He let a deep sigh blink harshly before holding the hands of his primas. There they saw how you escaped from Encanto and your journey there. Their eyes widen as a silhouette of you gets hurt. Blood coursing through the Ruana you fashioned.They were thankful that they saw you eat an arepa and eventually get healed, but it all faded away as they saw you on the ground shaking, hardly containing yourself. With that, the vision ended. A green plate fell on Bruno’s hand. Both of the girls stared at the plain, empty plate.

"T-Tio, what happened to my sister? What happened to her? " Dolores quietly sobbed as he pleadingly looked at his tired eyes. Mirabel also gives him a pleading look. He can't look at the two, knowing the news will shock them.

"My visions show the possible future," he started. This time, he put his head up and looked at the two. "She doesn't have one."

After a few minutes of crying, they all go downstairs. Still does not accept the fact that Y/N died. They all decided to announce this to the family to end their worries and to pray for Y/N’s soul. The news made the Madrigal’s colors disappear. Their world was turned upside down, especially Camilo's, who's still blaming himself for her death. He decided to admit it to his family and expected them to also blame him. Instead, they had a group hug.

It was all interrupted when a big bird flew above them and landed on the ruana that Y/N made that had her dry blood in it. They could've been crying right now, but they can't. They have no more tears left to cry. At this time, they were all numb.

Camilo saw the ruana and stared at it. Reminiscing the moment you approached him to give it He kept thinking: what would happen if he just accepted her apologies? Mirabel saw him and walked towards him.

"Y/N actually asked me to help her build that," she pointed out, pointing at the piece of clothing that Camilo was holding. "Her hands bled while building that. Good thing mama had leftover arepas, so we ate those.She even made it a pattern! Look! "

Camilo smiled sadly and went to his room to clear his mind. He’s still holding the ruana that you made and has decided to look further into it. He saw what you embroidered there and let out a small laugh. That was the name you used to call him when you were little. He decided to wash it and keep it as a memory of his sister.

"I regret not giving her a chance to be a better sister. I guess you’re right. I'm your idiot brother. "

After Y/N's death, Pepa can't make rainbows.

Mirabel and Antonio can't see the nursery the same.

Isabela can't and will never make hyacinth and tulips, as she knows they’re your favorites.

Dolores is always nervous when she can't hear one of her family members.

Camilo couldn't look at the mirror because they have the same eyes, and those eyes watched his sister in pain.

Purple Hyacinth

***

"Camilo’s a bit bratty. I'm trying to be a better sister, you know? " Y/N heaved a deep sigh, turning her head to face Isabella and Mirabel, who were listening to her. All of them are in Isabela's bedroom. "He is always ignoring me like I have some plague. If only I'm not determined to make it up to him, I would give up. "

After their fight when the casita broke down, Camilo and Y/N didn't talk to each other for days. Their family didn't suspend anything as they thought they were still shocked by what had happened. It happens very fast.

While building the casita, Y/N tries to talk to Camilo, but every time she walks to him, he will turn to the other side or walk away. Sometimes he even helps or talks to others just so he can escape from his sister. You never really think of it much. She supposes that he’s busy helping to build Casita.

She's now convinced that her brother was ignoring her now that the casita had been built. I mean, she already understood it. It's her fault anyway, but she’s now regretting it all. As she called it, "New house, New me." or "The Casita has been rebuilt, I will rebuild myself".

When he says that you’re a stranger to him now, you never really thought that he meant it.

"Just give him time, I guess." Mirabel said.

But you didn't give Isabela time when she was trying to be a better sister! It just happened in a snap! "

When he says that you’re a stranger to him now, you never really thought that he meant it.

"Just give him time, I guess." Mirabel said.

But you didn't give Isabela time when she was trying to be a better sister! It just happened in a snap! "

Yeah, because I'm saving the miracle that time and I thought it would be saved if I hugged Isabela because it shows in Tio Bruno’s vision that I would save the miracle with a hug. But it turns out that it was Abuela. "

"So you only hugged me that time because you were SAVING the miracle?" Isabela shouted as she gasped. Mirabel’s eyes widened and crawled behind you as she laughed. "Alright, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! AHHH! " The room filled with laughter as Isabela tickled Mirabel, and now all of you are having a pillow fight.

In all of the madrigals Isabela and Mirabel are the closest to you. Well, before it was Camilo, but everything had changed between the two of you. You just hope that you can fix it this time. You love him anyway.

After you hang out with Isa and Mira, you’re with Antonio now, asking for advice. After all, he’s your brother, and he might be a kid, but he’s a great listener. He's one of the few people who knows what's going on with the both of you and Camilo. He knows you’re regretting it now. He also knows how you feel about Camilo, as Antonio also stayed in the nursery with you and Mirabel. A bird told him that they saw Camilo on the river and that he felt hungry but was too tired to go home. The river was his comfort place.

A bright idea pops into your mind, and you go downstairs as fast as you can and get some food. You also brought some drinks and when you saw Isabela, you asked her to make a purple hyacinth flower bouquet. You once read that it symbolizes regret and giving someone that expresses sadness over a situation and asks for forgiveness. You've thanked Isabela and smiled at her. With the help of Antonio’s jaguar, you get to the river fast.

Once you’re in the river, you glance at Camilo, resting his feet in the water. You slowly approached him and sat next to him.

“I-I’ve brought some food,” you mumbled. “For you….or for us. Basically it's for you but uhmm..if you want me to join you it's fine. But if you don't want that,it's fine I understand. It's just—,”

Your words were cut off as Camilo stood up. You decided to hold his hand, signaling him to stay. He didn't say a word, and he just glared at you.

"I thought you were... hungry?" You asked as your eyes started to become glossy. He scuffed.

"Not anymore."

Before he could leave, you stood up immediately and blocked his way, stopping him in his way.

"Milo, just please talk to me," you pleaded. I just wanted to be a better sister to you. I know what I did was wrong, and I'm already regretting it. Just please, "you begged him, holding his hand.

When you’re convinced that Camilo will listen to you, you slowly loosen your grip on his hand and run to where you put your basket filled with Camilo’s favorite food (well, every food is his favorite) and the bouquet. Your heart shattered like glass when you saw Camilo slowly walking away, uninterested.

But you are determined and nothing can stop you. You chase him. He was aware that you were chasing him and was aware of what was happening right now, but he wanted to protect his heart. Camilo really ignored Y/N as her words went through his bones. Every time he’s thinking about forgiving Y/N, he always remembers how her words are like knives. How she used to make him feel nothing and how she made him feel small.

"Camilo, please don't ignore me like this! I want to make it up to you. Just give me one chance, hmmm,” She said. Tears ran down her face. Camilo stopped on his way and looked at her twin sister.

“You should've thought about that a long time ago. You hurt me, Y/N, "he stated to the girl blankly. The girl lowered her gaze and sighed deeply. She shakely gave Camilo the purple hyacinth bouquet.

"That’s purple hyacinth. A bouquet of purple hyacinth expresses the bearer's sadness over a situation and asks for forgiveness," She looked into her brother's hand, where she placed the flowers."I want to give you tulips as they also represent regret and apology, but hyacinth is my favorite flower. I hope you like them.

Camilo looked at the flowers on his hands and at the girl who swung back and forth, holding both of her own hands. He lets out a deep sigh and accepts the flower. To say that y/n was happy is an understatement. She’s on cloud 9.

When Camilo accepts the flowers, she's ecstatic. She could feel her heart jump. She thought Camilo would never talk to her again, and seeing him approach her just a little bit made her hopes rise. She walked and jumped on her way home, a smile painted on her face. But it all faded away as she turned back only to see Camilo put it in the trash.

The Old Us

So this is another version of ‘A STRANGER’ cuz I cant choose the appropriate ending HAHAHA. By the way, let's just pretend that the event of the miracle is in danger and that the house breaking didn't happen in a snap.

this is the link btw

Pairings: camilo x fem!reader [Platonic]

Warnings: hurtful words,vulgar words.

Summary: y/n wanted to be the better twin since the day she didn't get her gift but her brother did.

THE OLD US

Y/N Madrigal also didn't get a gift.

Nobody knows why she wasn't given a gift, but it was probably because if she had, she would have used it in a bad way. Even before her ceremony, she’s kind of hotheaded and doesn't want to share her toys with her twin brother, Camilo. Camilo, the older twin, let it pass. The ceremony came, and only Camilo got a gift. To say that you are upset is an understatement. You were feral. Camilo tried to cheer you up by shapeshifting to other people and making fun of them, but it didn't make you feel better. Hell, you didn't even cry you did but you're too prideful enough to admit it that time or feel sadness. You feel angry. So every time you see him going downstairs, you push him. The good thing is that Casita is always to the rescue, and the stairs always turn into a slide. Whenever you do that, he just laughs and mocks your failed attempt. His laugh makes you want to do bad things.

When Mirabel’s ceremony happened and she didn't also get a gift, you smirked and laughed at the crying kid. Pepa hit your hand, annoyed at her child’s behavior. Ten years later, it was Antonio’s gift ceremony. You're bored as you stand there.You watched your nails and blew the invisible dust. You wanted to go back to your room and sleep, as you already knew that Antonio would not get his gift. But he did. His door glowed, and your eyes widened. Taking a second look at the scene, people hurried there and started having a party. You also rushed there.

For once, you see Camilo greeting other people and partying as hard as he can, so you decide to also greet people and be friendly for once, but they just look at you blankly and ignore you,still not used to it as you always stay in your room. One of them literally dances with a plant. A literal plant! You scoffed at them and rolled your eyes. You see Camilo was trying to taste the alcohol, but he gagged at the smell and taste. You smiled. "This is my time to shine," you thought. You grabbed a few drinks and drank them in one go. Eventually, people started to cheer for you. Especially for teenagers of legal drinking age.You smiled proudly and asked for another. When you’re about to grab another shot, a hand stops you.

It was Camilo.

You rolled your eyes and grabbed your arms back harshly. You were about to say something, but Mirabel’s shouts stopped you, announcing that the Miracle was dying and the house was breaking. You saw Camilo’s face have a concerned and scared expression. After all of you go outside Antonio's room and saw that there are no cracks in the house, you turn to Camilo

"Scared of losing your power, hermano?" you teased. A smirk is visible on your face. He sighed and gave you a small smile.

"Never."

"Are you sure about that? People only like you because of your ability to shapeshift to them. Without it, you were nothing. " You said that and left the man.

You just realized that people’s attention was always on Camilo. Whenever he sees someone else, they always laugh and greet Camilo. However, if you are the one who passed them, they just ignore you like you’re invisible. You sit on the rooftop watching people do their things and watching Camilo, who is always having fun. You clutched your fist as you watched Camilo playing games and laughing with people. You mentally insulted him and his tactics.

You grew up thinking Camilo was better than you. No, I'm the better twin. I'm the best of both of us. He’s just... boring. Unlike me. Yeah, yeah, I'm the one who's better. You try to convince yourself but deep down inside of you,it was the opposite. You wanted to surpass him and drag him down below. You are siblings and you are supposed love each other, but you look at him as your enemy.

You become more observant and watch Camilo’s every step. So you decided to follow it, but make it better. Whenever he pulls a terrible or failed prank, you pull a dangerous one. Whenever he tried to get seconds and he didn't, you smirked at him and hit his shoulders as you passed by him.

Every day, you become more envious.Your jealousy grew and grew more than Isabela's powers do. It swallowed you. So every time you pass him, you hit his shoulders. Sometimes, he hits you back.

Every time he did something, you would do it too, and do it faster. People have started to kind of like you. You once did something faster than Camilo, and they complimented how faster and helpful you are, ignoring Camilo, who obviously did most of the work. You turned to face him and gave him a smirk. This happens EVERY SINGLE TIME.

Fast forward and the house shows cracks and is breaking. Abuela ordered all of you to find Mirabel, but you didn't join them. Instead, you pack your bags and stuff clothes in them. You go to every family member's room and get 2 to 3 clothes. You think this is a great time to show that you are more intelligent than Camilo. That you are always ready, and you are useful and can help even if you don't have powers. You go outside and hide the bag somewhere.

When you came back to the Casita, you saw Abuela and Mirabel fighting. Your eyes widen as you see cracks emerge around both of them. Yes, you wanted to show them that you were prepared, but you didn't realize that this was very serious. Realizations hit you like a truck. But you were still kind of thankful that you packed and got ready.

A huge crack surrounds both of them all the way up to the candle. It starts melting at a rapid pace. Pepa shouted in panic.

Still confused, you shouted, "Why's that damn candle melting so fast?" Isabella tries to save Mirabel by using her vines, but her door stops glowing as she falls. Camilo tries to do the same. Changing his shape depends on how big the obstacle is. Eventually, you all failed. The Casita broke down and the Miracle died.

Everyone was devastated and in shock. You all dont know what to do or how to start. You saw Dolores helping Abuela, who looked so lost and afraid.

"My powers... they’re gone!" Camilo whispered as he looked at his hand and back at you. You wouldn't have known he was in your back if he hadn't spoken.

"I told you," you said, a small grin on your face.Camilo’s brows furrowed and he looked at you like you had three heads.

"Why do you hate me so much?" Camilo said, as he lowered his hand and looked directly into your eyes. He had both of your shoulders in his grip. He looks at you with a pained expression on his face, desperate for your answer, like he’s been in a desert looking for water to drink. You smiled bitterly and bit the insides of your cheeks. You faked a laugh.

"I know you’re devastated, hermano. Why don't you scream or cry? Try to express yourself, "you said to him, as if you’re suggesting a good thing. You faked a gasp. Sorry, I forgot. You don't even know the real you. "

As those words escape your mouth, Camilo’s gaze lowers and his grip around your shoulders loosens. Soon enough, his hands are not around you anymore.

Silence surrounds the both of you. Camilo is still looking at the ground as you look at him. Your teasing smile dropped down and you started to take steps and raised your chins up like you’re the queen of the whole Encanto. As you were about to take another step, he spoke, causing you to stop but still not turn around.

"You know what hurts?" he asked, more like a whisper. You look at him using your peripheral vision. You can feel his eyes looking at you. "We used to be best buddies, you know?"

"But because of that f*cking gift, you change!" He shouted, and he pointed a finger at you.good for you that the other family members were trying to find Mirabel. "It’s like I don't know my sister anymore."

"I hate to break it to you, but I'm not your old sister anymore," you informed him. You looked down as you remembered everything that happened after the gift ceremony. You were only 5 at that time.

"Mierda, I miss the old you. I miss the old us. Why do you have to change? It feels like I don't know you anymore! " He said and walked over to you.

"What old me? Who stays behind you? Who watched you play with our fellow kids while I stayed in our room, staring at all of our friends because they all ignored me? I can be your shadow, Camilo. People can mistake me for your shadow! "you shouted as tears became visible in your eyes.

"I am my own person now. Don't blame me! I can live on my own now and stand on my own feet. I came back stronger, "you took a deep breath.

There was silence again...

Once you calmed down, Camilo broke it.

"Are you happy now?"

You look at him, confused.

"I already lost my powers. Is this what you wanted? Is this what it all takes to bring my old sister back? " At that moment, you turned to look at him. "Because if it is, then it's worth it."

"How can you still want me back when I did horrible things to you?"

"You might be intelligent, but I'm not dumb," he chuckles. "I saw how hard you tried... and I forgave you for everything," he simply mumbled. Your lower jaw started to shake. You then jumped on Camilo for a hug.

He immediately hugged you back and squeezed you.

"I‘m sorry."

"It's okay. I understand. "

[euphoriaofmidnight]

Camilo and the reader being his sister? [Platonically btw] The reader is just almost the opposite of him, she's hot-headed, selfish, prideful, showing cruelty towards him him it's possible and is extremely competitive with him [not in a teasing way but wanting to prove that she's better and above than him.] And the reason like that was because she was desperate for the attention of everyone since they kept on focusing on Camilo, rather than her.  [but she won't admit it though, just subtle enough.] I ACTUALLY WANT TO SEE WHAT CAMILO WOULD DO OR SOMETHING HUHU I'm in for angst >:), but it's okay if you won't do it! ITS PRETTY LONG TOO SO-

Not gonna lie, but when I saw this request I had multiple emotions over me. The first time I read it, I was like, "OMG, this is so beautiful, but I don't have any ideas going on in my mind right now. This is very challenging" I just hope that the reaction Camilo had in this story is accurate. I saw him as a forgivable person but this is angst so….I did another ending. Thanks for the request. I love it!♡

this is the link for the other one btw

By the way, let's just pretend that the event of the miracle is in danger and that the house breaking didn't happen in a snap.

"I told you," you said, a small grin on your face.Camilo’s brows furrowed and he looked at you like you had three heads.

"Why do you hate me so much?" Camilo said, as he lowered his hand and looked directly into your eyes. He had both of your shoulders in his grip. He looks at you with a pained expression on his face, desperate for your answer, like he’s been in a desert looking for water to drink. You smiled bitterly and bit the insides of your cheeks. You faked a laugh.

"I know you’re devastated, hermano. Why don't you scream or cry? Try to express yourself, "you said to him, as if you’re suggesting a good thing. You faked a gasp. Sorry, I forgot. You don't even know the real you. "

As those words escape your mouth, Camilo’s gaze lowers and his grip around your shoulders loosens. Soon enough, his hands are not around you anymore.

Silence surrounds the both of you. Camilo is still looking at the ground as you look at him. Your teasing smile dropped down and you started to take steps and raised your chins up like you’re the queen of the whole Encanto. As you were about to take another step, he spoke, causing you to stop but still not turn around.

"You know what hurts?" he asked, more like a whisper. You look at him using your peripheral vision. You can feel his eyes looking at you. "We used to be best buddies, you know?"

"But because of that f*cking gift, you change!" He shouted, and he pointed a finger at you.good for you that the other family members were trying to find Mirabel. "It’s like I don't know my sister anymore."

"I hate to break it to you, but I'm not your old sister anymore," you informed him. You looked down as you remembered everything that happened after the gift ceremony. You were only 5 at that time.

"Mierda, I miss the old you. I miss the old us. Why do you have to change? It feels like I don't know you anymore! " He said and walked over to you.

"What old me? Who stays behind you? Who watched you play with our fellow kids while I stayed in our room, staring at all of our friends because they all ignored me? I can be your shadow, Camilo. People can mistake me for your shadow! "you shouted as tears became visible in your eyes.

"I am my own person now. Don't blame me! I can live on my own now and stand on my own feet. I came back stronger, "you took a deep breath.

There was silence again...

Once you calmed down, Camilo broke it.

"Are you happy now?"

You look at him, confused.

"I already lost my powers. Is this what you wanted?" you are frozen in your place. “If it is,then congratulations because all of this time I spend my whole entire life questioning who's the real me. You’re right,Y/N. I didn't know who I was. And I use that power to cover my real emotions because If they did see right thru me,” he shook his head and continued. “No one will give a crap.I hope you’re f*cking happy”

At this moment,both of you are rushing into tears. A lump formed in your throat. You tried to speak but you couldn't. It feels like there's something hindering you.

“You’re a stranger to me now,” then he left.

I tried to make an arepa using rice flour, but I failed. I don't have the proof to show you guys because I didn't take one. (also, it was embarrassing enough to show. its hideous). I'm thinking of buying myself some treats by checking out the items that are in my cart because I wasted my money, time, and food. I know I'm going to regret it later, but it's still later. At least I bought myself a treat because I failed at making arepas and I was upset. My stomach hurts though. I think the hospital will have another patient haha. My arepas dont have the power to heal like Julieta's.

Word count: 1.3k

Do You Still Love Me?

***

Among all the Madrigals, Y/N was closest and can relate to Luisa. Just like Luisa, Y/N overworked themselves and expected the chores to be done in a snap and to be perfect. Their powers were super speed. They might have superspeed as power, but they also get tired of running almost daily.

Super speed was a lovely gift to have, but from your point of view, it was the opposite. Yes, you would accomplish most of the tasks fast. Most of the time, your feet hurt due to running super fast. Sometimes your body and the atmospheric air will be very high and cause a fire. If your mom, Julieta, wasn't there, you’re probably covered in bruises and scars from the fire, or the worst is you ended up being dead. Most of the time, you either come back home with a sore body or are injured. Sometimes you wish that you are just an average person. Back then, you were so excited to get your gift, but now you wish that you didn't get it.

It was Antonio’s gift ceremony, and people were chattering about it. Some are excited, while some are nervous, afraid that the miracle is slowly fading. All of you are doing your chores and work. Abuela wants it to be perfect, and seeing people panicking (or not because you’re the only person who's panicking besides Pepa) makes you panic as well. You decided to take a small break and calm yourself down, hoping Abuela won't see you.

Your break was interrupted by Pepa, who's creating a tornado as she nervously paces back and forth. “My baby’s night has to be perfect, and it’s not perfect, and people are going to be coming, and nothing’s ready, the whole town will be here -” She said, and some of the flowers and decorations were blown by the wind. Good thing that Felix was there and was able to calm down Pepa and Isabela made flowers bloom around. She only fixed the flowers but not the broken decorations there, so Abuela asked you to clean it since you are the only person she sees who is not doing any work.

As a good grandchild, you did. You thought that your work was done, but it wasn't. People kept asking you to do this and to do that to the point that your own body slows down as you are way too tired to run. When you came back longer than you usually did, they were upset. The news that you are getting slower reached Abuela.

She dragged your arms on the side and talked about how you became very lazy and some words that stab your heart. You didn't know how to respond, so you kept your head low and mouth shut. The entire night, you are quiet, and the only person who notices it is Julieta.

“Whoa. Mi Vida, you okay? You are so quiet. Is there something wrong?” she asked. Eyes are looking at you, concerned. You smiled at her and shook your head, indicating nothing wrong. You are just tired and upset. The whole 5 minutes that Abuela scolded you ruined your entire day.

Morning came, and you felt the urge to stay in bed for the whole day, but knowing that people need help, you have no choice but to get up. You decided to take a quick nap, but that nap turned into asleep, and you woke up WAY TOO late. It was already afternoon, and it was lunch. So you hurried outside, still not using your gift, and you found Luisa carrying a table, and Abuela ordered them to take a seat. You walked there very slowly as Abuela was giving a speech. It seems like they are having a meeting about something.

“As I was saying, we must never take our miracle for granted, so today, we will work twice as hard,” she started and looked at you. “Especially you, Y/N. People are complaining that you are so slow. You are becoming lazy!” all of your family is staring at you. You sighed deeply and gave her a small smile and nod.

As the meeting ended, you got up and left fast before your parents said something. You know that they are going to say something to you. You felt their concerned eyes the whole time. You followed what Abuela said and worked as hard as you could. From washing someone's plates, harvesting the crops, hanging someone's laundry. And you even helped someone build a house!

Fast forward, and the sun was already setting. The colors violet, pink, and orange were painting the sky. To say that you are exhausted was an understatement. You sat at the table peacefully taking a break when Dolores burst out, panicking. You turned your head to her, and behind her was Abuela.

“THERE’S A FIRE IN THE TOWN!” she shouted, covering her ears. Getting the signal, you hurried up and got a bucket and filled it with water.

“Y/N, don't overdo yourself! You might get burnt!” your mama shouted. You know that whenever you accidentally go in a super speed mode, there is smoke covering you and leading it to fire. You didn't listen to her and continued to grab a bucket with water and throw it in the house that was burning. Many people tried to help, but the fire was getting bigger. So you decided to go incredibly fast and didn't notice that you started to have smoked over your body and a small fire appeared. People panicked more and threw water on you. Luckily, you didn't get burnt by the fire, but because of the fire you have, it grew bigger.

When the fire was over, there were many people inside the Casita. Julieta was making food for them to make them feel better. You sat there—lost. Instead of helping, you bring them danger. You just wanted to help people and be enough for Abuela.

A lump forms in your throat, and you hurriedly rush outside the Casita. Julieta finished cooking enough food, and when she turned to look for your seat, you weren't there. She asked them where they were, and someone said that you go outside.

Holding an arepa in hand, Julieta wanders outside when she hears your muffled cries. Julieta finds her child sobbing. Palms were covering their face and sitting on the floor. Julieta slowly approaches you. Y/N shot their head up and met their mom's gaze. Julieta rubbed Y/N's back when Y/N spoke.You are sitting under a tree; your head is resting on your knees. She went over to you slowly and rubbed your back. You sobbed harder.

“I brought danger to the town, mom.” You cried. “I just wanted to help, but instead of helping, the situation got worse. What if I hurt them, mom? I ruined their life!”

She grabs you for a hug and hums softly. She didn't say a thing, so you kept talking.“People are complaining that I'm getting slower and slower, and they think that I'm being ungrateful and lazy. I just wanted to take a rest, but when I did, they didn't like that.” You cried.

Julieta let go of the embrace to face her child, whose face is red and has swollen eyes. She wipes those tears using her thumb and catches the tears that escaped their eyes.

“You don’t always have to go through a lot of effort to help people. You are also a person, Mi Vida, take some rest. Here, eat this. It will make you feel better.” Julieta suggested and handed you an arepa. While you are eating, she’s combing your hair using her hands. “Always remember that all of this isn't your fault.”

“Do you still love me?”

“Of course.”

“Even though I almost burnt the whole Encanto?”

Julieta laughed as she nodded.

“Even if you almost burnt the whole Encanto.”

Requests are open

Hi everyone! I have read so many fics and those writers inspired me to write a fanfic. I’ve never done this before, and I’ve never written a fic, but now I'm giving it a shot. I’m looking forward to writing a fic about the Encanto characters since I LOVE them very much. You can request anything, just no NSFW/smuts.
