The First Dinner

The next month later... (April)

I was in Alejandro's room and we are not talking about anything specific. We got bored so we did what any couple of teenagers do when they are bored. We were just made out on his bed. Nothing that was so shocking but we didn't look innocent at all. When I heard something, I pushed him off me. "Did you hear that?"

"Hear what? There is no one in the house." He wants back to kissing my neck but I wasn't in the moment anymore. He got off of me and looked really unhappy about it.

"You're overreacting there's no one..." He didn't get to finish because his mother walked in at that moment. I was so glad that I hear her come in. Because this would be the first time that I met her and I would not when her to walk to her son being on top of me.

It didn't surprise me when she looked at me in shock. Her head went from me to her son who was standing across from me in front of his computer desk. We were all silent waiting for someone to make the next move and I definitely wasn't going to be the person to break the silence. Luckily Alejandro snapped out of it and said, "Mom this is my..." He looked at me to know if it would be ok for him to introduce me as his girlfriend. I just looked at him and shrugged at him not knowing what to say. Without my denial or agreement, he continued his sentence with. "Mom this is my girlfriend, Athena."

"Nice to meet you Ms. César." I didn't know what to do with my hands so I just left them on the bed.

"Please don't call me that. I would prefer if you called me Octavia."

"I'm sorry!"

"Don't be. How were you supposed to know that?" I smiled at her because she was being super nice to me. Especially with all thing that she just found out. The awkward mood that was in the room was gone and I could finally relax.

"So, I should go home now."

"No, you can't leave now. I just met you. You have to have supper with us."

"Mommm!"

"What? I just asked her to supper with us." He looked at Octavia with annoyance.

"I don't mind." I looked at him with a questioning, if it was okay for me to stay and have supper with them.

"You see she is fine with it." Alejandro just grimaced at his mom. He looked so cute. "I had a purpose when I came up here. Oh, do you want Kielbasa with Peppers and Potatoes?"

"Sure, I don't care," Alejandro said to Octavia.

"Don't start with the attitude! You're getting mad because I ruined your make out session." She laughed at her comment and said, "And you honey is Kielbasa with Peppers and Potatoes okay?" I answered that whatever she would make that I would be okay with it and went back down stairs into the kitchen.

"You were being mean to her. What was that all about?"

"I just hate it when she embarrasses me."

"You still should talk to your mom like that." He came to me on the bed and said, "I'm sorry." He tried to kiss me but I moved my head aside to which he said, "What's wrong now?"

"First of all, you should not be apologizing to me but to your mother and secondly are you crazy? Because you must be if you think that I'm going to kiss you with your mother right down stairs." He sagged his head and sighed heavily. I picked his head off my because when he sagged his head he ended up right in between my breast. When I moved Alejandro he protested be saying, "Hey! I was comfortable!" I just laughed at him.

When his mother finished cooking she called as down stairs to come and eat. We were sitting in the dining room eating the meal that Octavia prepared.

Octavia is a single mother, she had him pretty young. I think that she had him at the age of 18. All that he's said about his father is that he impregnated his mother and as some, as he found out that Octavia was pregnant he left them. She raised Alejandro all by herself with her older brother helping out money wise. As soon as she could she went back to school to pursue her biggest dream. It was to be a chef so she went to culinary school and got a really good job as a chef or sous chef something like that. That's why he lives in a house and not an apartment.

Octavia and I were talking and she said to me. "Do you know that you're the first girlfriend of Alejandro's that I've met."

"Really?!" It can out with a tone.

"Why did you say it like that?" Alejandro asked me and didn't look so happy about it.

"Nothing it's just that... it's not forget about it." I hesitated from telling him.

Alejandro frowned but moved on. The dinner went perfectly. I was leaving his house but before I left Alejandro had to tell me something. He leaned into my ear and whispered. "You know that she wasn't lying. When she said that you were the first girl that she's even met." I smiled a little because in that moment I felt special.

I leaned into his ear and respond with, "I find it funny that your mom has never caught you with a girl before. I feel flattered that I distract you so easily." And I walked away and he said to my back. "You're too much."

Still teasing him a little I said, "Don't you think that it's too soon for me to be meeting your mother. I hope you're not going to propose next."
