Nora's pov

Do we really need jobs though?

N-We do?" F-Yeah. Don't you think? Making our own money." N-I guess, but what would we do?" D-Oh, you can model with me. It'll be really fun. You're gorgeous. You'll be perfect for it."

N-Modeling? Really?" F-Of course babe." N-Okay maybe." D-Yay!! Wait, you'll have to miss school sometimes." N-That's fine."

I looked over to my amazing boyfriend when he started speaking. F-What the hell am I gonna do? And no Alex, I'm not doing YouTube." Al-Yeah, but you definitely are doing a high school fits video with me tonight." F-The hell I am. Ask your girlfriend. She's harsh with fashion. It'll be interesting."

I nodded my head in agreement. N-Yeah honey. I love you, but you are so mean when it comes to clothes." D-I'm sorry you guys, but this is what happens when you model from age 6." Al-A pretty hot model too."

Ay! Cut it with the verbal PDA.

N-Okayyyyy. Enough. Anyways, I have some things to do so I'll see y'all Monday."

Dani's pov

Alex and I went back to the building and I went in his apartment and I wasn't surprised that Schneider was there.

Penelope looked at us very weirdly and Alex and I looked at each other in confusion, then back at her.

D-Lupe? Are you okay?" She snapped out of it.

P-Yeah I'm just trying to remember you guys like this. Not touching, but dating." Al-Okay, mom. We are both majorly confused so what's going on."

Sch-Well, Alex. Your mom asked me to look for something in your room and I found something."

I looked up at Alex and he shrugged. Schneider went out and came back with a condom box. Open. My eyes blew wide. I started to panic, knowing what was coming.

P-Why in the hell, is this box open? And don't lie to me. I can tell a person had sex." D-First of all. We. Did. Not. Have. Sex." P-How do I know you are telling the truth?" Al-You said you know when a person had sex, go ahead. Figure it out."

She narrowed her eyes at Alex. She came over to us. She checked our necks, stomachs, legs, and arms for hickeys and found none. She then sniffed me. When she sniffed Alex, she backed away and looked at us in disbelief.

Al-Oh come on. You didn't find anything." P-You smell like a girl. You smell like Dani." D-Lupe, I promise you we didn't do it. I mean, we were out all day and we were at Nora's house. We couldn't have done it."

Al-She's my girlfriend Mami. I'm with her a lot. I hug her, I kiss her, I cuddle her, I hold her hand. I'm gonna smell like her sometimes. You guys seriously need to chill out. She's almost 15, we are too young for that. Maybe next year." He turned to wink at me and I playfully rolled my eyes.

Sch-I believe them, Pen. I mean they are good kids. I think that at least at 16 they can have sex, they just got out of middle school, so when you put it that way, it's weird." P-Okay. I believe you guys, but why was this box open?"

Al-It was for a friend. I knew this was going to happen so I made sure I got paid $20 for this." P-Papito, you better not sell anymore condoms to people." Al-I won't." D-And I'll make sure of it."

The next day I woke up to the smell of perfume being sprayed everywhere. I opened my eyes and saw Lydia spraying it.

D-Abuelita, what are you doing? And how did you get in?" L-Making you a girl again." D-What do you mean? I've been a girl for the past 14 years. When was I not?" L-I heard you are not pure. My grandson did bad things with ju." D-No,no, Lydia. I am. Alex and I didn't do anything. It was a misunderstanding." L-Oh thanks god."

She hugged me and I put clothes on and went downstairs.

Penelope was writing things down and had a big board with seating arrangements for my quinces which was exactly 6 days away. Alex was being yelled at for not helping and Elena was going on and on about how I shouldn't have a quinces with no parents because of what happened at her quinces.

Victor found out she was gay and bailed on her for the father, daughter dance. She doesn't want me to feel like that since my dad died.

P-She's having a quinces! Schneider and I have been planning this for months. Before she got here. Oh hey guys." She turned to us. D-Good morning. Elena, as much as you may not want me to, I'm having a quinces."

L-You most definitely are. I finished your dress." Penelope, Elena, and I said at the same time, "Let me see."

Alex was just eating breakfast.

We went in Lydias room and saw the beautiful dress. It was amazing, but not amazing enough to the point I would cry like my mother said I should.

D-It's beautiful. I love it, Lydia. Thank you." L-What did I do wrong? You and Elena should tell me how you want things instead of disappointing me." She started telling the story of how Elena ended up with an amazing suit. Then she walked to the kitchen talking about Lupe and how she did the same thing.

P-Mami, she loves the dress." L-You don't want a suit too do you? Are you gay?" Alex's head shot up from his plate and looked at me with wide eyes.

D-What? No! Of course not. Sorry Elena." E-It's ok." L-So why weren't you crying?" D-Because, Lydia. It's just not me. I love it, but it's not me."

L-It's not ju? What are ju talking about. It has little roses and it is sleeveless since it is summer. It's not too long but it's not too short. And it doesn't have a lot of cleavage because you are going to be 15." D-Lydia, it's beautiful, I just can't picture myself in it." L-Okay well then, no one talk to me. I'm going to fix it." She went in her room and shit the curtain.

I sat down next to Alex and rested my head on his shoulder. Penelope went back to planning and Elena sat in the couch.

Al-If the dress has cleavage then you should wear it." We all looked at him. Al-What I'm a teenage boy." He defended himself and I chuckled.

Disclaimer for this story. The parts are all mixed up. There may be an episode about season 4 then one about season 2 right after that. They stay the same age no matter what I do. Obviously getting older, but as season 4 is still going on, I'm mixing it up. I know that part 13 is season 4 and the part after this is Daniela's made up quinces. A lot of the parts are made up with pieces from the show, but I'm going to incorporate more of the actual episodes into the story. Love y'all. Thanks for reading this story!🦋💖
