Song Recommendation: Dame Un Beso - Selena"Ugh, where are we going?" I asked, trudging up the hill behind Camilo. As we continued walking, my legs began to burn. I was going to complain, but I didn't feel like hearing Camilo tease me.
When we reached the top, he stopped and turned to face me with a weird smile on his face.
"What's going on?" I asked uneasily. Camilo pushed open a large bush, waiting for me to climb through.
"Come on, Imena." he said. I looked through the opening, and I saw a small boat.
Why is there a boat at the top of a hill?
I climbed through and Camilo followed shortly after. I walked up to the boat and looked past it.
Oh no.
"Um, you want to go down the hill in this boat?" I asked, raising my brows and pointing. Camilo smiled and nodded, walking closer to the boat.
"Yep! Don't worry, we'll land right in the river below." he said, pointing further. I looked down again.
"...no." I said, crossing my arms. Camilo frowned.
"You scared?" he asked. I tilted my head.
"No, I just have common sense." I answered, putting a hand on my hip and tilting my neck. Camilo scoffed, mockingly imitating my posture.
"Ay, Imena. Just have a little fun. I've done this plenty of times." he said.
"How many times have you fallen out?" I asked. Camilo counted on his fingers.
"Like, three times. BUT-"
"See, that's the difference between you and I, payaso." I said.
"No, no, patito. That was only in the beginning. Since then, I've gotten way better. Even mi padre approves. He helped me perfect it." Camilo assured me. I raised a brow.
"Your dad taught you how to do it safely?" I asked. Camilo nodded.
That did make me feel a little better."Besides, I mean, we did something you like to do. Why can't we just do this?" Camilo asked. I pouted and looked up at the sky.
"If I go down with you, you have to let me punch you twice."
Camilo's face fell.
"W-why?" he stuttered. I hummed.
"Once for stealing my necklace, and again for pulling this. You can't try to block it at all." I said. Camilo rubbed the back of his neck.
"Ah...sure." he said.
Ugh. Why won't you say no? Maybe I should add a third punch...
I sighed and climbed into the boat carefully, gripping the sides tightly.
At least, I thought I wasn't scared.
Camilo grabbed onto the back and slowly began to push it towards the edge of the hill.
I turned to look at him."Relax, patito. I'll jump in when I push it off." he said. I turned back around and swallowed. The lake below us seemed to be getting farther and farther down.
"Camilo, hurry up before I change my mind." I said. My heart was beating fast. I felt like I was beginning to hyperventilate.
"The suspense is the best part. You ready? I'm going to countdown to one." Camilo said. I nodded.
