La Mujer de Lalo (Lalo's Woman)

El amor

Days had passed since Lalo and Ana had met. She got busy with planning Annabelle Pierce's birthday party. Marcus made her come to his house almost everyday so that she could meet little Ana. She did enjoy being around kids, so it was natural for her to want to stick around baby Pierce.

Everyday, Lalo would be the first to call her in the morning to wake her up and would be the last person she talks to before going to bed. She still crashed at Nacho's. She missed his presence so much. Marcus had invited Ana and Nacho to the birthday party. He even told that she may bring Lalo if she wished to. Ana got excited at the offer, unaware of the schemes he had planned.

Two days before the party, Ana went to Lalo's house. The guards let her in with warm greetings. Lalo wasn't there of course. But she thought she'd wait for him there. She had bought a new dress that evening to wear to Annabelle's party. She wanted to show it to Lalo first.

It was almost 11, when Lalo turned up. He was surprised to see Ana in the living room, watching TV. He went behind her and put his arms around her torso and placed gentle kisses on her ears and neck. Ana quivered at his touch. She turned her head to kiss him.

"I can't believe you're here." Lalo said.

"Well... I wanted to tell you something and show you another. " She hesitantly replied.

"Please, tell."

"Marcus invited you to the birthday party."

Lalo wasn't showing any emotion at what she had just said.

"Will you come? I'll be happy if you would. It would be like our first thing, you know. Attending a party as a...uh... couple." She blushed as she finished.

"Ay, princesa, if you wish for me to be there, then I'm there."

"Oh. Thank you, Lalo, you're so sweet."

"So, what's it that you wanted to show me?" He asked at which Ana quickly looked away from his eyes.

She just clutched the bag she'd kept on the couch next to her. Lalo took ot and examined the contents. His eyes lit up after seeing the dress.

"Whoa! That's something." Lalo remarked.

"You like it? I hope you do."

"Eh, it's not as good the dress you wore for our first date, but this is truly beautiful. I think you'll look like an angel." He pressed his cheek against hers as he continued. "But I must warn you though, people at the party might get you confused with the birthday girl. But you didn't have to come all the way here to just show the dress, had you called me earlier, I'd have taken you shopping."

She hit him playfully for the birthday girl remark and replied "Well, I...wanted to show you. In person."

Lalo looked confused. Ana took the dress from his hand and went upstairs, to his room. Lalo realized what she'd meant and chuckled.

As Ana changed into the new dress, Lalo had walked up to his room patiently waited outside. When the door opened, Lalo heart almost skipped a beat at the sight of his woman. Clad in a bright yellow floral chiffon dress, Ana stood at the entrance.

Without a second thought, Lalo pushed open the door and entered the room, making her take a couple of steps back. He closed the door behind him and just kept starring at her. The dress was pretty when he'd seen it downstairs, but on her, it was something. It showed her excellent curves and and the knee length attire made her look a lot more cuter. The neckline, it wasn't as deep as some of her other dresses, but it did reveal enough of her full bust for his eyes to savor them.

She hadn't worn any complementary accessories, just the usual chain and a small stud. Her wavy hair at her sides made her look ravishing.

"So, how's it?" Ana questioned.
