Maiya's POV
Today is Demi's birthday and I have to make sure that everything I planned works out. This day is really important and it can't go wrong. I sighed and ran my fingers through my hair. It's really frizzy. I have to wash it. Again. I just washed it last night. I looked over at Demi laying on the other side of the bed. I smiled. She's perfect.
"Good morning love"I whispered to her as I kissed her nose.
Her eyes fluttered. When she opened I saw those beautiful eyes that I could stare into all day.
"Good morning baby." She said in her sexy sleepy voice.
"Good morning Dems." I said to her as I kissed her.
"I heard you the first time." She giggled then kissed me. It went from a soft kiss to a more passionate kiss. I loved having these types of kisses with her. Any type of kiss with her is amazing, but these are my favorite.
"Eww that's so gross. Could you do that somewhere else? Please. There's a bathroom right there. Make your way to it." She told us as she laughed.
"Ooh salty this morning aren't you? You need to go have your morning coffee." I smirked.
"And maybe we will go to the bathroom." Demi remarked. We kissed once more and walked to the bathroom. As we were in there I decided to take another shower to wash my hair. After I was done I stood in the mirror to put my contacts in and do a little bit of make up but not too much to sweat off. Demi snaked her arms around my waist.
"Isn't there something you're forgetting?" she giggled as she kissed my cheek. I smiled.
"Uh no. Why? Is there something important today?" I questioned. I feel bad for this but if my plan is going to work then this is how I'll do it.
"No," she sighed and walked out. Marissa is doing the same thing. We know. We definitely didn't forget because first that's the reason we came here. And second we talked about it yesterday.
I finished getting ready and walked out of the bathroom.
"Where's Demi?" I asked Marissa.
"She just walked out. She said she was just going to walk down." She responded.
"And you just let her go?" I said a little too loud.
"Yeah why not?" Marissa looked worried.
"The big party. She can't go down yet." I sighed.
"I'll go get her." I sighed as I ran out to find that Demi was just rounding the curve. "DEMI. WAIT. I NEED TO TALK TO YOU." I yelled. She stopped but didn't turn around. I finally caught up to her.
"Babe, Demi. Why are you crying?" I panted.
"Nothing. It's stupid I'm fine." She turned to keep walking.
"Dems wait. Will you come with me to see Izabella? Please?" I pleaded.
"Fine." She sighed. I wiped her tears with my thumbs and kissed her soft lips.
"I love you," I smiled.
"I love you too."

Once we got up to the orphanage Carlos was already up there.
"Good morning Papa," I said as I hugged him.
"Is everything ready to go? Where's Izabella?" I whispered to him as I hugged him.
"She's coming with her stuff right now and after she's done we can head down. You should tell her now." He responded. I nodded.
"Demi come here babe," I was so excited.
"Yeah?"
"So I have something I want to tell you."
"Okay go on." She urged.
"Izabella is ours now." I smiled.
"What do you mean she's ours? Like we adopted her?" she started to get excited.
"Yeah. She's coming home with us when we leave." Just as I said that, Izabella walked in.
"Hey baby girl!" I said to her as I picked her up. I taught her a little English yesterday. But before I did I noticed that she understood a lot of what I was saying in English. She even responded to me in English many times. She knew it better than Spanish, which was very weird for someone her age from here.
"Hi Maiya," she smiled her big beautiful smile.
"Tú eres mi hija ahora. Vas a venir conmigo y Demi." I smiled as I started to see the happiness in her eyes.
"Mamá?"
"Sí. Demi y yo somos tus mamás ahora" I smiled.
She turned to Demi.
"Mommy?" she said as she pointed to Demi.
"Sí princesa." Demi said as she kissed Izabella on her cheek.

Demi's POV
Oh my god. I can't believe that Izabella is ours now. Ever since we got here which was only two days ago Maiya and I have gone to see her and we spent hours with her a day. And now she's ours. She's going to live with us in the US. She's my daughter. Our daughter.
We stopped by the rooms to get Marissa before we went down to breakfast. Maiya is nervous for some reason. She's fumbling with her hands.
"Baby what's wrong?" I grabbed her hand and stroked the back of it with my thumb. She kinda relaxed.
"What? Oh. Nothing. I'm fine." She turned to face the window.
"No you're not. You were just playing with your hands. You don't do that unless your nervous." I sighed. She just laughed.
"What's so funny?"
"Guys we're here." Marissa told us and joined Maiya in laughing.
"Guys please tell me what's so funny." this isn't fair. They have a joke that I don't even know. I feel so left out.
Izabella is in Maiya's arms right now. Carlos is talking to her in English, which she seems to understand and speak very well for her age.
Maiya grabbed my hand and Marissa grabbed my other. Carlos put a blindfold around my eyes. And they led me into the dining area.
"Feliz cumpleaños a ti. Feliz cumpleaños a ti. Feliz cumpleaños querida Demi. Feliz cumpleaños a ti." I heard everyone sing to me. They took the blindfold off of me. Everyone that was staying there and all of the staff was standing in front of me. As I looked around I saw almost all of the photos from the past year. They were in frames and hanging up. They had a big banner with a timeline for every birthday from the very first day I was born. Everything was decorated and beautiful. I know I was in tears. I turned to face Maiya.
"Happy birthday baby girl." She whispered.
"Is this really all for me?" I managed to get out.
"Only for you. You're the only one. This is your day." She smiled at me. I pulled her and crashed my lips onto her. She almost immediately kissed back.
"Thanks you so much baby. You're amazing and I wouldn't trade you for the world." I whispered against her neck as I hugged her.
"Anything for you baby." She whispered back. I could've stayed here forever. I let go and looked down at Izabella.
"Happy birthday Mommy." She gave me her biggest smile.
"Aww thank you princesa" I bent down to her level and held my arms out. She immediately ran into my arms and gave me a big hug. I picked her up and turned to Carlos and Marissa.
"I'm assuming you guys were in on this too." I smirked at them.
"Yep. You know we love you Dems and we would never forget your birthday. Even if we tried." Marissa kissed my cheek and gave me a hug.
"Thank you so much Carlos." I said as I hugged him.
"Please Demi. What's Maiya's is now yours. Call me Papá." He responded as he smiled.
"Mommy can we eat now?" Izabella asked in her cute voice with a light accent.
"Of course princesa." I responded as I picked her up and carried her to the food line.
We spent the rest of the day visiting places. We went on a water boat tour wit Izabella. It was so fun. It was really fast and we stopped at restaurant that is literally right off of the water. It was amazing. We saw the side of Belize and went to a little river thing that was deep in some places and shallow in others. I had so much fun!

Maiya's POV
Demi's been having a good time with me, Izabella, and Marissa. She's so happy. After this morning, her smile hasn't left her face all day.
"Maiya baby?" she whispered in my ear as we laid on the bed on either side of Izabella.
"Yeah hun?" I said as I shifted to see her better.
"Can we Skype my family so they can see Izabella? I really want them to at least see her since we aren't home right now. And plus I haven't talked to them in a while." She rambled. I can tell that she is exhausted.
"Okay babe. Of course that's always fine with me. Now get some sleep I can tell you're tired." I told her as I kissed her forehead. She smiled as she sleepily nodded her head and smiled at me.
I love my little family so much.

---------------------------------------------------
After a few hours I woke up and Demi, Marissa, and Izabella were all out of bed. I heard them laughing outside on the balcony area, so I joined them.
"Oh look who's finally up. My little sleepyhead." Demi said as she smiled. I heard Marissa and Izabella laugh. Demi moved her laptop over a bit so I could see her mom and Maddie on the screen.
"Hey Momma Dianna. Hey Maddie. How's it going?" I asked as I picked Izabella up and sat in her chair.
"Hi sweetheart. We miss you guys. I can't wait for you guys to get back so I can meet Izabella in person." Dianna smiled.
"Yeah omg I'm so excited. I have a niece. I'm an aunt now!" Maddie squealed.
"Aww yeah we miss you too. We'll visit as soon as we can when we get back." I said as we all laughed at Maddies excitement.
"We'll we won't keep you guys any longer. Come visit as soon as possible. I love all of you guys, Marissa included."
"Aww I'm touched. It's nice to know that people think of me." Marissa said as she placed her hand on her heart.
"Shut up Marissa. Yeah we'll see you guys soon. Love you!" Demi said as we hung up.
"Hey babe don't forget we still have our interview with Ellen when we get back." Demi said as she winked at me.
I could feel myself blush.
"Demetria shut up. It's not funny."
"I think it's hilarious actually." Marissa remarked as she laughed. I don't understand why it's so funny.
