Act three, too much.

"She's so cool." Camilo stated, almost breathless as he stared at the young lady who single handedly fix the broken cart.

"She is, but she'll probably melt if you continue to stare at her with those burning passion and love you have in your eyes." Dolores commented as she walk past her brother with a quiet squeak following after her statement.

The shapeshifter snapped out of his thoughts and yelped in surprise with his eyes trailing after his big sister who walked towards your hunched form with ease.

He could never have the courage to walk up to you like that and strike a conversation with you, he's sure that he'll probably pass out first before actually doing that because you are too much for him to handle.

Almost everyone in town can talk to you with so much ease and excitement but he is the only one who couldn't.

His undying and growing love for you continued to bloom which causes fkr him to cower away from you everytime you're near.

His sister's lips moved as she continued to tell you something, her hushed voice couldn't be heard but can reach your ears without any problem.

His hazel eyes held a longingly look in them while staring at your face, a smile crept to your beautiful features which soon followed by a laugh.

His heart skipped a few beats upon seeing and watching you laugh so heartily just because of what his sister had said to you.

In a blink, he found his hazel eyes staring back into your (color) eyes, they shine with so much adoration and he can even see the playfulness swirling in those beautiful (color) orbs of yours.

Just then, he realized that he had locked your stare with his.

His body moved on its own, his palms getting sweaty with his breathing turning heavy along with his heartbeat gradually getting faster and faster as his feet drag him away from your view.

He ran back to la casa Madrigal, his mouth left agape and eyes wide looking everywhere in a panicked and frantic manner.

He didn't know what he's looking for but he just need somewhere to hide.

He need somewhere to hide, anywhere with no windows or small space would suffice. He just want to lock himself out of the world so he could think of what just happened. 

Just knowing that you stared in his eyes with the same equal amount of adoration that he would give you, made his heart burst with happiness, excitement, hope and anxiety.

You had managed to take his breath away just looking into his eyes so he couldn't help but wonder, what would it be like if he could actually see you smile at him and not anyone else?

His hand gripped his yellow ruana to calm the erratic beating of his heart, his breath got caught in his throat as he leaned on the flat and hard surface of the vibrant wall, his slouched posture slowly slid down into a sitting position.

He buried his face on his other hand, his face felt so warm and he couldn't help but let out an annoyed yet satisfied sigh.

He is annoyed because he ran away from you, but he is more than satisfied to know that you looked at him and not anyone in his direction.

"Dios mio," The shapeshifter breathed out with his face burying further into his palm, "She's just too much for me to handle."
