Camilo Time {Camilo X Reader}

•Chapter 6•

"Señorita..? Is he alright?" I managed to ask. Victoria quickly nodded.

"Yes, he's fine.. physically, but uh.., his gift allows him to see and hear ghosts.. He's constantly hearing the whispering of the dead. Cesar can't control his gift. It's more of a curse.. than.. than a blessing." Victoria then went back to calming down the young boy, who was covering his pained ears with his hands.

Mateo gave his brother a small hug. It seemed to help Cesar a little bit, but he couldn't stop crying. And I couldn't bear to see this child hurting anymore.

I shut my eyes, trying to block out the sobs. Camilo placed his hand on my shoulder, giving it a little squeeze.

"We'll leave you three alone now. I hope Cesar gets to feeling better. Goodbye, Mateo." Camilo spoke softly. I heard Victoria and Mateo respond with quiet 'bye's and walk off.

I opened my tightly shut eyes and Camilo was right in front of me. "Sorry about that, hermosa. Todays been a mess. Can I make it up to you?"

"I.. It's alright. Not your fault. How to do plan on making it up to me?" We started to walk again, Camilo humming in thought.

"Well.. Uh.. You could let me take on a little date~." Camilos sly little grin returned and I blushed. I tried to say something, but all my 'words' were incoherent and I just stopped trying.

"Cmon, bonita. It'll be fun. I'll pick you up tonight."

"To-Tonight? But my Tio would never let me go out that late again.!" I tightened my grip on the rolls of fabric.

"That's why I'll help you sneak out~!" Camilo nudged me encouragingly, with a more genuine smile on his face.

"I-.. Fine. But if we get caught I'll never be allowed out again. I'd never see you again! Do you understand?"

"Yes, yes I do, hermosa. Ah, there's your place!"

Camilo helped me get everything inside and into my room. "I should get going. Gotta help out a little around town before Abuela gets mad. Bye, Y/N!" Camilo opened the door to leave, but I stopped him.

"Hold on! I gotta give you something."

"What is i-"

I gave him a quick kiss on the cheek before I shoved him out the door to hide my reddened face. "Thank you for helping me! See you!" I shouted from right outside of the door. He didn't respond. Did I break him? I probably broke him.

{Camilos POV}

I-

She-

I froze up, not able to respond to her goodbye. I bet I had the goofiest smile on my face as I walked away from her door.

Do I like her?

I think I like her.

I made my way home, too distracted to do chores. Once I made it to casita, I opened the door to see my one and only sister waiting for me on the other side.

"I knew it!" She exclaimed, making me shapeshift out of embarrassment and the little fear she struck into me, "I knew she was your type! Hurry, hurry. I gotta give you all the good advice."

She then grabbed the sleeve of my shirt and dragged me off to her room. I listened to her babble on and on for at least an hour, when I could've been getting ready.

"Dolores! This is nice of you and all but shouldn't I-"

"Get ready? Yes, yes. Stay here for a second. I'm going to grab my eyeshadow."

She disappeared for a moment, then returned with all sorts of brushes and pallets. I only had my one shade, so all the different colors confused me. What would look best? I'm sure Dolores would know.. Girls and their knowledge of.. things.

Before I could protest, Dolores grabbed my face and wiped the makeup I was wearing. She picked up a smaller brush and jabbed it into a lighter shade of brown, then brushed it onto my eyelids. She must've put a hundred different shades on my face, but when I looked into her mirror, I couldn't help but be amazed. She was good at makeup. Really good, yet she rarely wore any herself.

"Thanks, sis. This is awesome." I admired myself until Dolores took the mirror and shooed me out of her room. I won't ever understand girls.

Now.. to plan out how I'm gonna help Y/N.

{A/N}

Surprise y'all I posted today-

It's a little longer and I promise I'm gonna immediately start writing the chapter for the date. This was getting to the word goal I wanna reach for every chapter so I'm gonna post it as it is.

Anywho here's Victoria, Mateo and Cesar!

Victorias gift is that she can create things like bricks or even statues out of already existing materials.

Mateo can change the color of anything he touches, except for human skin, hair and eyes. Colorful little fellow.

You already know Cesar's.. Poor kid. But I gotta traumatize one of my OCs, ya know? Haha..

Okay that's all for now!

Floof, out.
