"You've never had a milkshake and fries?" Oscar asked in disbelief. Venus shook her head from across the table and stared at him with a confused look on her face. "You've lived in America for trece años y nunca lo probaste?"
Venus shook her head again and looked down at the In-N-Out table. "Why would someone dip fries in their milkshake? You're supposed to dip them in ketchup."
Luis looked up at the two as he drank the strawberry milkshake and watched Oscar take the lid off of Venus cup and held the fires out to her.
"How do I know you're not tricking me and the fry's going to blow up?" Venus squinted. Oscar rolled his eyes and did it, watching as Venus intently watched him.
"Try it, it's good."
Luis got curious and stood on the seat to lean over and dip a fry in his mom's shake. Venus watched him eat it and start smiling as he took off the lid from his smaller cup. Venus sighed, then gave in while Oscar ate his burger and watched her.
She stared down at the fry that was now covered in her milkshake and put it in her mouth.
"Cómo puedes lucir bien mientras comes?" Oscar asked, causing Venus' cheeks to heat up as she looked down to her lap. "Sabe bien, huh?" Venus nodded and looked back up at him to see a smirk on his face. "You taste better."
Venus went wide eyed and slapped his arm, "Aye cochino. Estamos comiendo."
The smirk on Oscar's face never left as he leaned over and whispered, "Puedo comerte."
"Can you like, speak English? This is America."
Oscar's face went into a scowl as he slowly turned his head to the teenage white girl sitting at the table beside them. "I don't know, can you mind your fucking business? Freedom of speech, puta."
"Why are you guys even in Brentwood? Shouldn't you be in Freeridge passing her around to your friends?"
Oscar's eye twitched as he stood up abruptly and almost pulled his gun out from his waistband. "Say it again, y juro por Dios te voy a disparar."
Venus stood up and put a hand on his chest to stop him from attacking the girl and breaking his probation. "Calm down, Oscar. Necesitamos ir al hogar de todos modos." Venus said, slightly pushing Oscar back even though she wanted to see someone's ass get beat. "No delante de Luis."
Oscar looked back at Luis and calmed down, enough to start packing the food. Within less than a minute, Oscar was up with Luis in his arm and the bags of food in his free hand. Oscar shoved pass the girl, purposely bumping her as he walked by and gently pushed Venus forward so she would walk.
"You're lucky we're in public, or else I would've shot you right in your head." Oscar mumbled, loud enough for only the teenager to hear. The blonde flinched and watched the family walk out while Luis glared at her over Oscar's shoulder.

"Mija, si no te vas ahora, I will beat you con mi chancla." Lisbet told Venus, trying to get her out of the house and to Oscar who was waiting for her to say goodnight to Luis. "Go have fun that you didn't get to have in high school." Lisbet waved Venus off and once Venus kissed her cheek, she pushed her out and closed the door in her face.
Venus got into the impala, adjusting her tube top and shorts that she replaced her jeans for. "You ready to get fucked up?" Oscar smiled at her as he drove down the street, the García-Lopez house disappearing and being replaced by loud music and a packed street.
The house that was having the party was flooded with people and music could be heard from 2 blocks away. Oscar and Venus walked into the party, a cloud of smoke greeting them along with the stench of beer and hard liquor.
"Aye, Spooky!" One voice called out. All the Santos were together and started cheering when they saw their leader, then got even more hyped when they saw his girl with him.
"Hola, chulo." Venus greeted, letting go of Oscar's hand and going over to hug Pablo. Oscar watched as the two hugged and as Pablo slightly lifted up Venus before putting her back on her feet and letting go.
Oscar didn't wait to pull Venus back against him and sent a quick look to Pablo. "We're getting drinks." Oscar walked through the tight crowd of people, pulling Venus along with him until they found the kitchen. Before he grabbed cups, he pulled the top of Venus' tube top higher.
"So protective." She commented, jumping onto the counter while Oscar poured the alcohol into the red cups. Venus watched him as she ate chips out of a bowl and smiled when he stepped between her legs. "No kitchen sex."
"We can go find an open bedroom right now." Oscar commented, keeping eye contact as he drank from his cup. He put the cup beside Venus and put his hands on her thighs.
"No." Venus shook her head. "Let's go party like we came here to do."
Oscar shook his head and wrapped himself in Venus' legs. "Hey Spooky."
The couple turned to the voice and saw the devil herself, Alejandra, standing behind Oscar as she poured herself a drink. Oscar rolled his eyes and to piss her off, he turned Venus' face towards him by her chin and initiated a make out. Alejandra scoffed at the two and walked away, abandoning her drink while the two had their moment on the kitchen counter.
But the couple seemed to forget where they were, especially Oscar who let his hands roam and grope every where on Venus' body. The two continued moving their mouths as one until a shot rang outside the house and the people inside froze for a few seconds.
"Can we go dance now?" Oscar glanced down at Venus' now swollen lips, bigger than their usual size, and nodded as he helped her down and kissed her again. "Oscar, we're gonna end up doing something out here that I'm going to regret."
Oscar shook his head and looked down at her stuck between his body and the counter. "There's a whole ass open bedroom we can use."
Venus pondered for a few seconds, looking over to the entry way that led to the hallway. "Then what are we waiting for?"
