Yup!

You and the shapeshifting Madrigal had been friends of years. You were about the same age, and had found an affinity for one another. Even once he was expected to spend a bunch of time serving Encanto, you still found ways to spend time together. Eventually the whispers started. You had been feeding him a piece of fruit after telling him how good the bit you had was. He had taken it from your hand with his teeth, and agreed that it tasted excellent.

A week later, someone saw him drop to a knee and present you with a bouquet after you'd sprained your wrist, and then spend the rest of the day, even though it was healed, fussing over you. You even got a special nickname. 'Delicate little flower' he called you, earning a light swat on the arm. After that incident, you'd snuck up behind him in public, putting your hands over his eyes and telling him to guess who. When he said his wonderful best friend in the world, you said, nope just me, and he billed you onto the bench beside him.

You had meals together publicly. He would kiss your hands. You would walk arm in arm through the square. If there was music you sought out each other first as dance partners.neither of you had recognized this as being anything other than friend stuff until.

"Could you tell your boyfriend, that I need to speak to him." Someone said to you. You blinked.

"My what?"

"Your boyfriend. Camilo."

"Oh we're not dating." You said quickly. You got a raised eyebrow from that person and they gave you an 'uh huh' before walking off. You spent the rest of the day going over and over recent events in your head. You were close for sure, but dating? But friends didn't usually want to kiss their friends, right? That wasn't a normal thing.

"Hey, Camilo." You said, the next day, slipping up behind him.

"Hey what?" He answered, "oh that's a less than f thrilled face."

"Are we dating?" You asked. His face malfunctioned, the size was an infants, but the eyes were Tio Bruno's, and the mouth was Luisa's.

"Do you want to be?" He asked, once it was fixed.

"I mean... yeah." You admitted quietly. There was a long pause before he spoke.

"Wait. Really?"

"Yes." He swept you up into his arms, spinning you around in circles. He whooped exuberantly.

"I have a partner!" He cheered loud enough for his parents to hear from across the square. In the distance Felix and Pepa hugged.
