november spent the day with her baby cousin, rosa. rosa was the toughest little latina in november's family, and she loved her a lot. although she was only 13, she knew a lot about life, so she was great to talk to.

november decided to take rosa shopping down ventura boulevard, and take her to lemonade for lunch. once they were seated, rosa folded her hands and stared at november.

"i heard about you and your new boyfriend. he's pretty cute for a white boy," rosa nodded her head in approval.

"he is, isn't he?"

"do you love him?"

november smiled, "yeah, i do. a lot, actually."

"what does love feel like?"

november thought about her answer for a bit, "love is like.. you have a can of soda in your stomach and you're constantly worrying if it's gonna explode or not."

"so it's not a good feeling?" rosa rose her brow at her.

"it is, it's just that you're constantly on edge and you don't know what's gonna happen next."

rosa nodded her head, still a bit confused, but didn't say anything else. their food arrived and they began to eat quietly.

"have you guys done anything sexual yet? i won't tell mama, you know that. i'm old enough to know about this stuff," rosa finally said, taking a sip of her lemonade.

november smirked, "that's for me to know, and for you to never find out."

rosa groaned, but didn't ask about it again. she continued eating her mac and cheese until it was gone.

"you know what we should do? we should go lingerie shopping," rosa cheekily said.

"you're 13."

"not for me! for you, duh. i heard mama and auntie nancy talking about how you wear the same stuff all the time. i know you have like, a bajillion dollars on your credit card. go buy yourself something nice.. and by yourself i mean your boyfriend," rosa babbled on, making november laugh.

"okay, fine, but i'm not buying them for niall, i'm buying them for myself."

"alright, whatever you say," rosa sang-songed.

once rosa and november arrived at the mall, they went straight into victoria's secret. rosa picked up a black lace bra and held it up to her chest, just to put it back on the rack.

"this store makes me feel bad about myself," she muttered, looking around the store. "they never have my size."

"this store is overrated, baby cuz. you're better off going to target," november hummed, picking up a white lace bra with a little pink bow on the front.

"i like that one. it's innocent yet sexy," rosa pointed at the bra that was in november's hands.

"should i go try it on?"

rosa nodded, picking up two more bras the same design but in the colors black and tan.

"you stay right here. i'll be back in a few minutes. don't go anywhere or i'm not buying you anything," november kissed her forehead and headed towards the changing rooms.

"november?"

november looked up and almost dropped the bras that were in her hands. zayn walked towards her, a smug look on his face.
