Your Pov
I take a deep breath as Camilo and I try to calm ourselves. We pick ourselves up from off the floor and I dust myself off. "Let's head to Dolores' room after this. I have a feeling hers is going to be interesting." I say walking towards the door. "Alright, but I want to show you one more thing beforehand." He takes hold of my arm and pulls me to the other side of the room.

Instead of a door, we walk through dangling vines into what feels like another jungle. But this time, the jungle was made of just vines. "Isa practices her powers here and makes some pretty top-notch seedless grapes. Ripe off the vine." Camilo explains, throwing one into his mouth. He grabs a couple more, putting his hand out and offering me some. I take one and try it.

It's sweet but sour. The perfect amount of taste in one bite. "How do you know about all the nooks and crannys in everyones rooms?" I ask, picking some grapes off the vine. "I may snoop around a little when I'm bored." He answers. "I'm also pretty sly, so that helps." I nod a little, pressing my lips together, making an mmm sound. "Remind me never to let you in my house." I say with a smirk.

We make quick eye contact and I see his smile grow a little as he looks down. "So.. Dolores' next, huh?" He picks one more grape and locks his arm with mine, pulling me away from the grapes I was reaching for. "Ay ay! We're not that close yet. Personal space please." I say dramatically, earning a small laugh from him. I untwist my arm from his and close Isabela's door lightly.

"On to Dolores' room!" I whisper shout, pointing my finger up in the air with my free hand and eating another grape with my other. He chuckles again and I see the lights of the fireworks reflect in his eyes. 'No!' I think to myself as I get lost in them. 'Think straight and get to the dang door!' I yell in my mind. "Now remember, since this is Dolores', we have to be extra-" "My room is my space. You're not invading that too." Dolores says, stepping in front of her door.

"Cautious." Camilo finishes his interrupted sentence. "Besides, this is Antonio's night. You shouldn't be trying to get a girlfriend right now. No offense." She says the last part directed at me. "Don't worry about it." I respond with a smile. "And it's not like anything is happening between-'' This time it's me being cut off. "Well, we should be getting back to the party. You're right, thanks for keeping me in line Dolores!" He says, sounding nervous.

He grabs me by the hand and guides me back to Antonio's room. We run through the doorway and the room seems bigger than last time. I see people dancing on tree limbs and the little ones jumping through the little stream below. The music is loud but just enough to where I can hear people talking. "May I have this dance?" I look to my right and see Camilo, arm out, waiting for me to take it.

I hesitate before doing so and he pulls me in. He spins me and then brings me back, hands in hands. I look down at our feet, trying to figure out the right steps. "You're doing fine, especially for a beginner." He whispers to me. My gaze fixes back to him and our eye contact feels nice.

Until it doesn't. I start to tense and the eye contact feels more uncomfortable than anything. I feel anxiety start to build it's way up. But I don't think he notices. He continues to smile and the dancing speed picks up as the song nears its end. He spins me one more time and dips me down. My breath hitches and out of nowhere I slap his hand off my side. I fall to the ground, sensing many eyes on me. "(Y/n)?" He says but I just ignore it. I quickly get up and run out of Casita and back home.

Camilo's Pov
"(Y/n)!" I yell one more time before running after her and out of the room. But when I hit the railing, I can't find her anywhere. "What happened?" I ask myself quietly. I lean on the rail and relax my arms on it. I try to retrace my steps and see if there's anything I did to make her uncomfortable. Maybe asking to dance was too soon.

"If you're wondering why she ran off, she could've just been overwhelmed. Her pulse was racing and her breathing was quick." I knew Dolores could hear but I didn't think it was that powerful. "A piece of advice, don't try to move too fast. She seems nice but not someone who's willing to just go for it. Take it slow and see where that takes you." She takes a sip from her drink and looks me in the eye.

"'Take it slow?' If you can hear so well then wasn't she flirting with me too? Obviously that's not it." I sigh and rest my chin on my hand. "Sometimes, people think they know what they want until it comes. But in reality, when it's there, it's just too much to handle." She says, leaving my side. I take in her words and think for a moment. Maybe I should take it slower. I groan and roll my head back, taking a couple minutes before going back to my family to celebrate.
