Oh those two! I love the descriptions in this piece and can see it all so well. I especially love the bit about Jacob squirming like a little kid when Camila goes to clean his face. :)

[ninablues]

Jacob does that well into adulthood. Cleanliness is bad juju!

[ichthusfish]

Yeah, that transcends the language barrier :) I particularly love this description: He had a smile like the first bite into a slice of brazo gitano. Sweet, if a little messy. It shows a lot of Camila's inner thoughts that even she doesn't seem to be totally privy too. Nicely done :)

[ninablues]

Yeah, Camila's wilfully trying not to get involved but can't seem to help it. Goodness knows why; teenage!Jacob was a state. XD But a charming state, I suppose.

[ninablues]

She's currently glad she didn't-- when he knocks her up, she stops being so sure. XD Thanks!

Awww. This is sweet and a little bit heartbreaking, knowing what's ahead for them. Lovely job.

Aww! I like the good look we get at Jacob through Camila's eyes. Also have to say the phrase " lolloping English nonsense" made me smile.
