Chapter one hundered and two: Unsure

I resurfaced with a gasp and I looked around to see whether or not Camilo had followed me.

"Y/n?!" I heard Camilo's voice call from somewhere.

I didn't reply and tried my best to stifle my laughter. A few moments went by with Camilo not saying anything. Then I heard Camilo laugh.

"Trying to hide from me, huh?" He said "Fine! If a game of hide and seek is what you want, a game of hide and seek is what you'll get! I've gotta warn you, I was five when I last lost a game of hide and seek!"

I couldn't see him since I had swam into a crowd of people playing in the pool so I thought that it was okay to shout one last cheeky remark at him before the game began.

"That's because you're a shapeshifter, Cami!" I yelled back "But need I remind you, I'm a shapeshifter too!"

I immediately started swimming away from where I was when I shouted that. I knew that Camilo's first instinct would be to go to where he heard my voice coming from so I got as far away from it as I could.

"I'm gonna find you, mi vida!" Camilo shouted.

I found Antonio and stared at him for a moment, choosing him as my target. He was wearing dark yellow shorts that had jaguar print on it that I thought was really cute on him. I felt my body transform into Dolores. I'm not sure how Camilo's gift works in this sense but for my gift, when I shapeshift into a person, I shapeshift into the person with the clothes that they were wearing at the time.

So when I shapeshifted into Dolores, she was wearing a red, two piece swimsuit. It was made out of a red swimsuit top with thin, white straps and white frills along the bottom of it. The bottom part of the swimsuit were puffy, red swim shorts with the same white frills along the holes that the legs go through. Her hair was let down instead of being kept in her usual high bun but she was still wearing her red ribbon on the top of her head. She was wearing white gold, waterproof earrings that added something extra to the look.

Part of the game for me is that I have to somehow act like the person that I had shapeshifted into. When I was struggling with my identity, I hated hide and seek because I would always feel the need to shapeshift and even when I did play it, I would hide normally. But now, I was more sure of myself and who I was so shapeshifting wasn't much of an issue and I used it to my advantage when playing this game. It's been a few years since I lost.

"Dolores!" I heard Camilo call from across the pool.

He was calling for the real Dolores, who was now next to him.

"Hey, have you seen- Um, heard Y/n around here anyway?" Camilo asked "We're playing a game of hide and seek!"

'Camilo's a cheater!' I thought to myself.

"Dolores!" I said, only loud enough for Dolores to hear "If you can hear me, don't tell him where I am! He's cheating just by asking you!"

Dolores looked around for a moment before making eye contact with me. She subtly nodded at me before turning to Camilo.

"I'm sorry, Camilo" Dolores said softly "I'm not going to help you, that's cheating!"

"What!? But Y/n is cheating too! They're shapeshifting so they can hide in plain sight!" Camilo retorted.

"Is that so?" Dolores replied "Then I seem to remember that when we were younger, you would always cheat in the exact same way!"

"Alright, fine! I get it..." Camilo said defeatedly.

Since Camilo had just talked to Dolores, I didn't think that it would be the smartest to stay in Dolores' form. I looked around for people that I could use to transform into other people. I noticed Luisa, she was wearing dark blue swim shorts that were tied around her waist with a white ribbon and a black and white striped tube top. I knew it wasn't gonna be a good idea to shapeshift into Luisa herself because she was...Well, a super tall, muscly woman with super strength, which attracted a lot of attention. So I chose Luisa as my target.
