Y/n's Pov
It was a friday after I had just gotten home from school. I went to the front door of my house and I could hear my parents fighting again. All I could seem to understand is that they were fighting over a bracelet or something they found. I thought about it and that's when I realized what bracelet they were yelling about. SHIT. They must've found my one of my pronoun bracelets.
A little background of me. I had come out to my close friends at school and of course my boyfriend, Camilo Madrigal, as gender fluid. I know of all people that would be okay with still dating me like this, I never would've thought it would be Camilo. Anyways I hadn't come out at home because my parents were really big homophobes. I use pronoun bracelets to show my friends at school what I will feel best being called that day.
I take a big breath as I open the door and walk in. They immediately stop screaming. Then it starts again, but this time not at each other, this time at me. ⚠️⚠️TW yelling starts⚠️⚠️ "Y/N WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?! WE TOLD YOU THIS WAS NOT OKAY AND YOU AGREED THAT IT WAS JUST A PHASE!!" my dad screamed at me, in my face. "I...I'm sorry it's just... it's not a phase. I am who I am and you guys have no say in this nor can you do anything about it." I say back trying to show them that I'm not hurt. "WELL YOUNG LADY. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. SO YOU CAN EITHER STOP THIS NONSENSE RIGHT NOW.. OR YOU CAN GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER AND GET THE HELL OUT!" my mom screamed in response. "FINE I'LL GO! THERE'S PLENTY MORE PEOPLE WHO LOVE ME!" "YEA SURE YOU JUST THINK THAT. YOU'LL BE CRAWLING BACK TO US IN NO TIME." ⚠️⚠️TW yelling ends⚠️⚠️
I can't believe they really asked me to go. I run upstairs to the attic, where my room was. I packed up 2 bags and grabbed my comfort stuffed bear, Stuffy, and went out the back door so they didn't start yelling at me again. I nearly collapsed from balling my eyes out, I felt weak, but I needed to get out of there. I run to the only place that right now I feel safe, the Madrigal house. I guess Dolores must've heard my crying and running up the hill to their house because right as I was about to knock, she opened the door. I had tears streaming down my face and I collapsed into her arms crying. "Awww corazón. What happened?" Dolores asked. "My parents found my they/them bracelet." I cried back. Camilo's whole family knew that I was gender fluid and my parents were really big homophobes. "Aww did they hurt you or touch you?" Dolores asked, concerned. "No." I yawn back tired from running and crying. "Let's get you to Camilo's room. How does that sound?" She asks. I instantly light up a little bit.
She brings my bags up and knocks on his door for me. "Camilo? It's Dolores. You need to come out here, someone needs you." She says in her calm voice. He opens the door and instantly sees me, knowing I've been crying. He runs over to me. "Thank Dolores, I got them." Camilo says as I walk inside his room and he closes the door.
"Is it okay if I hug you?" he asks. He was always good at respecting my boundaries, but right now I just needed his comfort. I shake my head, yes, and he engulfs me into a tight hug. "What happened, mi amor?" he asks in his calm and relaxing voice. I didn't want to explain it again and I think he could sense that so he just nods. "Okay it's alright. How about we talk about this later? You go get changed and then come back and we can watch a movie and cuddle with snacks. How does that sound? Good?" he reassures you that you're safe with him. You nod.

I went downstairs and grabbed all of Y/n's favorite snacks and see Dolores at the table doing work. "Dolores, what happened to y/n? I don't think that they wanted to explain it again." I ask her. She calmly explained the situation to me and all I wanted to do was go to y/n's house and give their parents a taste of their own medicine, but I knew y/n needed me right now. "Don't worry. If anyone asks why they're here I will talk to them so you can tend to them for right now." She reassures and with that I go back upstairs to see y/n on the bed with a movie picked out.
"Alright here's all your favorite snacks, mi amor. What movie we watching?" I ask them. "Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire. Duhhhh." They giggle back. There's that goofy smile that I love so much. They lay on my chest and I start the movie.
About 15 minutes or so into the movie, I look down to see them asleep on my chest. I smile and kiss their forehead. "I love you, mi amor." I whisper as I turn off the movie and turn off the light. I hug them closer to me and a little while later, I fall asleep as well.
