Sweat drips off my hot gyrating body. The music pumps through me as I move expertly to the routine I know off by heart. The music stops and I come to a halt, panting.

"Amazing!"

Lauren, my best friend, squeals.

"Hermosa sweetheart! Perfect for tonight!"

My Papí applauds. Today is my 18th birthday. Tonight is my gathering of family and family friends and dancing was going to be a major part of it, considering it's my expertise. Nervous was an understatement. My whole family are very stereotypically Spanish, making this a big event. But I only wanted one person to be there to help me through the dance. He never fails to help me focus. Ace.

I gleam at my father praise.

"Gracias Papí."

"I'm going to make sure everything's ready at home. Can you get home okay?"

"I'll get her there Roberto, don't ya worry! Gotta pick up your dress and get ready anyway Miss Thing."

Lauren winks at me. Stupidly, I have let her pick or my dress for tonight as my present from her.

"Okay Lauren, on time though, sí?"

"Of course Roberto, don't worry, I got this."

"See you at home miel."

He kisses me on the head and leaves swiftly. Collecting my things I jump in Lauren's Jeep. Looking like a hot sweaty mess we head to Lauren's to get ready. As if I wasn't already stressed, I haven't even seen my dress. Por dios.
