THE ALARM BLARED AND OLIVIA let out the most dramatic groan ever. Like, full on "world's ending" energy. Another school day. She groaned, smacking the alarm off before dragging herself out of bed.
After a quick shower, she threw on whatever clothes were on her bed and went to grab Lucas from his room. He was still in his adorable little world, sleeping peacefully.
Olivia carefully picked him up before making her way to the Alvarez apartment, holding both Lucas and her school bag in her hands. Lydia was still babysitting Lucas, which she didn't mind at all. She just loved hanging out with Lucas, which she says was her 'second papito'.
Olivia knocked on the door, and Elena answered. "Oh, hey Livi." She smiled. She helped Olivia as she took Lucas in her arms, careful not to wake her up.
Olivia walked in, dropping Lucas's bag and collapsing on the couch with a sigh. She glanced at the kitchen where Penelope and Alex were talking.
"Alright, mami. Where are Alex's pants?" Penelope exclaimed.
Olivia turned her head towards her, to see what was going on. Penelope, clearly too impatient for an answer, yanked open the curtains that only revealed an empty room.
"Where's Abuelita?" Elena asked, worried.
"She's small, she's probably under something." Penelope said. They all searched the apartment, but Lydia was no where to be found.
"Kids...I think your abuelita's run away from home," Penelope mumbled.
Olivia exchanged a glance with Alex, both of them silently agreeing this was one of the last things they'd expected to deal with today.
Olivia mentally groaned to herself, having to get her hands full again. She carefully picked him, seeing that he was still dead asleep. She started to grab his things but Alex stepped in front of her.
"It's fine, I'll carry it." Alex said with a smile that made her stomach flip. She smiled back, nodding and the two of them followed Penelope and Elena out the door.

When they reached Schneider's apartment, Penelope knocked impatiently. "Schneider, open up! We need to talk!"
