A/N: Hehe.
***********************************************************************************************
Camilo's eyes were shadowed. But you could've sworn they were red.
Like a demon.
His hair covered one of his eyes, making him look even more menacing.
" Like the new look? I thought that my old one made me look a bit too huggable. Too nice."
" You are nice." You told him.
At least he was.
Before she ruined him.
" I AM NOT!" He yelled at you, his red eyes seemed to glow even more.
What happened to him? Before, you had seen that Camilo could still be redeemable. He still had hazel eyes.
He showed small glimpses of the real Camilo.
Now he seemed like a true villain.
" The old Camilo was nice." He spat. " He was weak. He let people boss him around. WELL NOT. ANY. MORE." His voice trembled as he yelled at you.
" And you... you were the one that helped me. You made me realize who I truly was. And.. I thanked you for that. I gave you that necklace as my thanks. And this is my payment? Betrayal? Why would you go to my family to talk about how to defeat me??" His voice held a twinge of hurt. But it was mostly pure hate.
" Camilo please! It's not about defeat! And it's not betrayal! I just want to help you." Your voice wobbled on the last words.
His dry, empty, emotionless laughter made shivers go up your spine.
" HELP me? No, Y/n, you are not helping me. You did, once. But obviously, not anymore." He took a step closer, his eyes signaling your cursed friends as they surrounded you.
You frantically thought of something. What could you do? Why was Camilo like this?
Ever since you got the necklace from him, he'd been getting worse and worse...
Wait.
That was it.
The necklace. It had to be.
" Camilo, wait! It's this necklace you gave me! It's cursed! Gloriosa must've...."
" Who's Gloriosa?" Camilo's face held confusion and anger.
" Also- now my necklace gift is CURSED? Wow Y/n. I really was a fool for falling for you."
...
What did he just say?
He liked you?
No- it had to be the curse talking.
" Please! Just trust me! All of you are under a spell. You have to believe me!"
" And just why should we believe you Y/n?" Dario said.
" Yeah. Sounds to me like you're just trying to worm your way out of this." Adella agreed.
You turned back to Camilo as you gripped your necklace.
" Camilo, you're angry, I get it!
Believe me I know what it's like..
But you are making a mistake." You told him. The boy's eyes fused even more red as the curse controlled him.
" The path of hate is a dangerous track,
You take one step and it's hard to turn back.
It pulls you along,
And though it seems wrong it feels right.
Don't you see this path you're on leaves a permanent mark-
It feels good at first, then it slowly turns dark..
With each passing day-
You're further astray from the light!
Suddenly, you lose your way and lose the thread!
Lose your cool, then lose your head!
Every loss is harder to excuse!
Then you'll see you'll lose your faith and lose your soul!
'Til you lose complete control!!
And realize there's nothing left to lose!
Nothing left to lose!" You sang. Camilo's eyes softened a bit. For a flash, his eyes were hazel. And recognition showed. Excited, you kept going.
" 'Milo, trust me.
Becoming the villain isn't the answer-" You were cut off. You had gone too far.
" IS THAT WHAT YOU THINK I AM?" Camilo yelled as his recognition faded and his red eyes returned with a vengeance.
" The path I'm on is a path paved in black," He sang as he reeled towards you.
" I'm taking that road and I'm not looking back.
Each twist and each turn~
Leads straight where I'm yearning to go!
Yes, it's true, my path is dark but I see where it ends.
My rivals will fall as my power ascends-
Despise me, that's fine!
I'm taking what's mine even so!
Not like you-
You lost your nerve, you lost the game!
But you and I, we're not the same!
I'm not lost, this fate was mine to choose!
So I chose to lose my doubts and lose my chains!
Lose each weakness that remains!!
Now that I have nothing left to lose!
Nothing left to lose!"
He went grab you, but you twirled away in a swift movement.
" You have so much to hold onto!" You told him, he still had his family.
" I only want my rightful dues!" He spat. You and Camilo sang over each other as you both argued.
" Listen please, you've lost your grip!
And lost your mind! (I'm not gonna lose)
All's not lost, don't be so blind! (I refuse)
Cut your losses, drop the IOUs!, (Oh-oh~) I choose
I lose no tears and lose no sleep!
What I want I'll take and keep! (It's time for you to choose!)"
"You can't stop the turning on the screws!!" You both sang. Camilo's jaw set in fury as he snapped his fingers. In an instant your friends pinned you down and tied you up.
" You'll stay in that rope until this is done.
And just in case you think of escaping.." He motioned for Adella to put a blind on you, so you couldn't see the knots so you could attempt to untie them.
Camilo left the room,
" And by the way. It's not Camilo anymore.
It's Carlos." He closed the door and sang to himself.
" Now.. I have nothing left to lose.."
He walked down the dark hall as his red ruana trailed behind him.
