Your Pov
I finish my dinner and clean out my bowl. Wiping down the counters, I hear a little rumble. I pause and look around. I don't hear it for a while so I go back to cleaning but then I hear a loud boom. I run outside and see a huge thunder cloud around the Madrigals house. I begin my way up the hill, holding my arms, pushing through the cold wind.

I see some of the family run out of the side of Casita. 'What's going on?' I think to myself. I run through the front doors and see the family in a panic, running to their rooms. "Camilo!" I shout as he starts running to the stairs. He stops and looks towards me.
"(Y/n)?" I walk up to him and look around.

"What in Colombia is going on?" My gaze goes up to him and he sighs. "It's complicated. I'll explain a little later, I have to go find mami right now. Stay safe." He bolts up the stairs and into Pepa's room. "Hey, come with me." Someone says behind me. They walk in front of me and I notice it's Dolores.

I follow her and walk into her room. It looks quiet and peaceful. Little soundwaves on the walls but I don't see any nooks or crannys. "What's happening? Is everything ok?" I ask, hoping I get an answer this time. She squeaks and sits on the bed. She pats it, indicating for me to sit next to her.

I listen and look into her brown eyes. "Mirabel found Bruno's last vision, it says she's breaking Casita and our magic. Everything could be in great danger." My breath picks up and I feel chills. "Wow, that's um, a lot to process. I'm so sorry." She breaks eye contact and looks down at her hands.

"Thanks, but I'm hoping everything is fine. Anyway, I needed to talk to you about Camilo." My face flushes red and I tuck a strand of hair behind my ear. "Right, about that, um, I was just curious about everyone's rooms. I'm really sorry, heh." I laugh nervously, rubbing my neck.

"Thank you for the apology but no, that's not what I meant. Why exactly aren't you with him again? Because you're worried it'll be a mistake?" I groan lightly and grab a hold of my arm, closing my eyes. "Well, it's just, what if one day he realises this isn't what he wanted? What if he finds someone else? What if he just leaves me, I can't go through another loss right now."

I feel a hand on my knee and I open my eyes. She gives me a smile and tilts her head. "As annoying as Camilo can be to me, he wouldn't do that. I've heard the way he talks to you, he really likes you (Y/n). Give him a chance." She tries to convince me as I take a deep breath. "Fine. I'll give it a shot." She squeaks again and her smile grows.

We sit there for about thirty more seconds before I finally understand. "Oh right now?" I ask standing up. She snickers and her laugh sounds very similar to Camilo's. "Yes!" She exclaims. I walk over to the door turning the handle when things begin to shake. "What's going on?"

"The house is collapsing! Run!" I swing the door open and run down the stairs as fast as I can, making sure Dolores is behind me. We reach the bottom as Camilo races up them. "Camilo!" I shout. He dodges debris and jumps, trying to get to the roof.

But he shifts back to himself before he can reach and falls to the ground, Casita helping by trying to cushion the fall. "Camilo!" I yell once more before being pushed out by waves of the floor. Everyones forced out of the house besides Mirabel, who's trying to get the candle.

I stand upright and look around, meeting my eyes with Camilo's. "Camilo. Camilo, estás bien?" I ask frantically, running up to him and helping him up. The house collapses and everything inside it. "Mirabel!" Julieta shouts, running into the demolished building, only to find Mirabel sitting, holding the now burnt out candle.

My breathing picks up again and the more I see the destruction, the more it makes me remember about me losing my home. Everyone walks into the rubble and looks around. "My powers... they're gone. What about Antonio, what is he gonna do?" I hear Camilo talking to his mother. My head drops and everything feels grey.

The entire miracle is gone. I walk around some more hoping to find more than just concrete. But I don't, the dust and rocks make everything feel hopeless. I turn around but I don't see Camilo. I roam out to the grass, crossing my fingers that he's at least around the Encanto. Turning the corner, I find him sitting, back against a big piece of concrete.

"Camilo?" I whisper, trying not to startle him. He doesn't turn his gaze, he just stares off into the distance. "Hey, I know this must be hard but, you'll get through it." I walk up to him and kneel down, putting my hand on his shoulder. "Camilo?" I say again. "You don't need your gift to get through life, I promise, everything will be ok."

He finally looks over to me but he doesn't look sad.. he looks exhausted. "It's just.. how do I know who I am without them. I'm nothing if I can't shapeshift." My hand moves from his shoulder to his cheek.

"Is that what you think? Camilo, you are so much more than just your gift. You're mischievous, fun and adventurous but also loving and caring. I mean, you made me feel so much better today when I was talking about my family, and you didn't need to morph into anybody to do it. Plus, you are one hell of a good dancer." He laughs and flings his head back, accidentally hitting his head.

"Aye!" He nearly shouts. I chuckle a little and he rubs his head. "You don't need your gift to be something. You are already pretty damn amazing, and I would love to be in a relationship with you." I smirk and his eyes go wide. "What, I thought you said you wanted to wait."

He looks confused but happy at the same time. "Well, Dolores helped me realize that maybe... maybe I need to start giving things a chance." I smile and move a piece of hair out of his face. He gives a light chuckle and smiles back. His eyes sparkle in the sun that's going down. He leans in a little and I pull myself in slowly.

Our faces, inches from eachother as we hear a scream. "Mirabel!" I turn away and see people yelling and searching for her. "Mirabel's gone. C'mon, let's go help look." I say, starting to stand. "Ok but maybe we should continue what we paused first." My mouth opens ajar and I playfully hit his shoulder. "Oh, let's go pretty boy."
