Crystalline's POV We are driving different cars going to the house. Once we arrive, we rush to my room to take a bath and change our clothes. I wear a dirty white off shoulder dress that end 3 inches above my knees, black heels and bag then put on minimal make-up. I put my hair in a high ponytail with strands of hair falling off to frame my face.

I saw mom and dad at the dining so I pull Ace with me. "Mom, dad!" I rush to them and give them a hug. "When did you come home?" My mother ask. "A while a go, I'm with Ace" then they look at the archway to see him leaning on a pillar. "Hello there come sit" he smile and obediently sit down beside me. "Mom, I'm going to meet his parents" I informed them. "Oh, can we come?" They ask. I look at Ace waiting for him to answer. "Sure, I'll just call my mom and tell her" my mom squeal and rush upstairs to get dress tugging dad with her.
"Yes mom, okay...bye!" He sit back down and rest my head on his chest. "What did your mother say?" I ask. "Mom is so excited and just reminded me of some things" I say nothing and just let him stroke my hair until my parents came down. "We're ready! We are riding your father's car and you two can go alone" we stand up and went our separate ways cause their car is in the garage and ours is outside.
The whole ride is silent but a comfortable one. His hand on my thighs and mines on top of his. As we arrive, I'm starting to feel nervous and I think Ace notice. "It's fine, they'll love you" he held my hands and kiss it. "You think?" I ask. "I'm sure, let's go, your parents is outside already" I look behind us and saw them. My side of the door opens and Ace offer his hand. I gladly take it and walk beside him. His arm around my shoulder and mine around his waist. Their house is big enough, not like a mansion. It's modern and outside there's a garden and a big garage fit for 4 cars.
As we enter, Ace shouted, "Mom, dad, we're here!" We saw them come out from the kitchen. "Good evening!" Her mother greeted warmly. "Good evening Mrs. Vazquez!" I politely greeted back. "Stop with the formalities, just call me by my name Amirah" I nodded and turn to his dad, "Good evening, Mr. Vazquez" he chuckle, "No, please you're making me feel old, call me Atlas" I nodded and smile. "Let's go eat!" We all follow hem to the dining. There's a table fitted for ten people and it's all made of wood. The room design feels homey but there's still a modern vibe to it. We all take a sit and didn't fail to notice a boy beside Amirah. The boy shyly smile at me and look down.
Ace must've notice I'm staring at him. "His my cousin but a brother to me, his name is Adan" I smile at the boy and do a little wave. We started eating and talking, "hija, tell us how did you two started dating?" I look up and answered with a smile, "Mom told him to guard me because I'm skipping my meals. Everyday he take me out to eat or sometimes order food. Since then we started getting close until it lead to dating" she smile, "what are the things you like the most about Ace?" I blush at the question but still answered, aware that Ace is staring at me right now. "Well...at first he was cold but playful then we became friends, he's caring and funny when we started dating...he just know what to do to make me laugh, he knows how to comfort me, he was there when I needed someone to cry on, he is the sweetest guy I've ever meta and I love him" I look at Ace and held his hand. "I love you too, baby" I smile as he kiss my hand. "Awwww! What a cute couple!" My mom cooed.
We continue eating and talking about random stuff until we had dessert. His father ask a question that make me choke on my drink. "When are you planning to propose to her?" I pick the table cloth and wipe my mouth. "Soon, dad" he answered shortly. "You better, I like her and if you ever do something that hurt her. I swear, I'm the one who's going to kill you" Atlas threatened him. "I can't do that to her and don't worry I'm planning on proposing to her soon" I again choke but this time to my saliva. I can't help but melt at his words. He really wants to marry me and a future with me. I'm so happy that the whole time I'm smiling. "Sweetie, come here, I'm going to show you childhood pictures of him" with that I skipped towards her and excitedly open the album. I saw every picture of him since he was young.
"This picture is the time when his ice cream fell from the cone which made him cry" her mother told me with a beaming smile. Then we came to a picture of him sleeping, "Can I have this?" I point to the picture. "Sure, darling. Here you go" she pull it out and give it to me. I stare at it before putting it on the back of my clear phone case. Right on the cue, Ace comes in and saw us looking at the album. "Mom! Don't embarrass me in front of my girlfriend!" He pouts making me laugh. "Oh, shut up. I think you're adorable, see?" I show him the back of my phone with his picture. He look so cute! So I took my phone and take a picture of him, catching him off guard. "Babe!" He whined making me laugh so hard. I shrug him off and sit beside his mom. We continue looking to the pictures taking some for my own which makes him embarrassed and shy. After that we decided to go home since it's getting late. "Bye! Please come back and maybe next time we'll talk about the wedding" then Amirah gives me a wink. I blush and look away from them hiding my face to Ace's chest.
"We'll go now, love you mom" he kiss her forehead and hug her then nod to his dad. We get going and tomorrow decided to go and gather with my friends, they want to hang out. I just told them yes and ask Ace if he could join. He said yes and tells me he's gonna call a friend too.
When we arrive, I immediately walk up to my room but vid Goodnight to my parents. With Ace behind me we enter and plop myself to the bed tired. After a good minute, I stand up to freshen up and change.
I cuddle close to Ace chest when I returned and whispered a Goodnight before letting darkness invade my vision.
