I get to my room and plop onto my bed.
I can't get the thought out of my head.
we are dating now.
I cover my eyes, I'm so happy that he asked me.
I got out of bed and grabbed my cloths so I can go shower.
I quickly shower and try to get all the sand in my hair out.
I head to my room and change into sweats and a hoodie.
I put my locket back on.
I text my mom.
birthgiver 🥰😟🤱🏻
(who else has their mom's contact name like that.)
y/n 🧚🏼♀️🤢: hey mom can you come to my room.
birthgiver 🥰😟🤱🏻: yeah coming.
read at 6:30pm.
a couple minutes later.
I hear her knock on my door.
your mom: hi qué pasó?
(hi what happened.)
my mom does talk english, but she prefers to talk to us in spanish, so we won't loose our native language.
you: oh nothing I just have to tell you something.
I say with a smile.
I am a bit nervous, because she didn't like my ex so.
she didn't say anything she just waited for me to explain.
you: yeah so me and alejandro are sort of dating.
there was a bit of a pause.
I was expecting her to yell at me or something.
or like give me a long lesson on why I shouldn't date.
or even reasons why she doesn't like him.
but I was wrong.
your mom: en serio y/n, puchica no me mientas.
(seriously y/n, damn don't lie to me.)
you: im not lying.
your mom: aye por fin, nosotros esperando cuando vas a estar con ese sipote.
(ah finally, we've been waiting for when you and that kid were going to start dating.)
(btw some of this is salvadoran slang if you know this, comment other slangs that you or your parents say.)
i just laugh.
I get scared when she talks to me in spanish.
you: pensé que me ibas a dar un consejo.
(i thought you were going to give me a lesson.)
she was just laughing at me and nodded her head no.
she points at my locket.
your mom: el té compró eso.
(he bought you that?)
you: si, me lo dio.
(yes, he gave it to me. )
your mom: que lindo.
( how cute.)
she looks inside and sees the pictures.
she takes a deep breath and is about to leave until she turns to look at me and asks.
your mom: le digo a tu padre.
(want me to tell your dad.)
you: no se, si tú queries.
( i don't know, if you want.)
your mom: okay.
she leaves the room and I just lay on my bed.
confused.
my mom liked alejandro then.
i was happy.
I invited alejandro to my room.
he knocked on the door and I opened the door and hugged him.
ale: woah there. you seem excited.
you: i told my mom we were dating.
ale: what she say?!?
he sounded a little scared and nervous.
you: she said she doesn't like you.
I say it playfully and I thought he would get the joke, but since this was kinda serious, he didn't.
ale: wait what seriously.
he says sounding a bit stressed and panicked.
you: no I'm just playing.
i can see all the relief in his face once I said that.
I laugh and go up and hug him again, followed with a kiss.
you: come on let's cuddle.
I go on my bed.
I gesture alex to come next to me.
he does so and he pulls me into a bear hug.
he has his arms around my neck and puts his leg over mine.
he was basically big spooning me.
my face was in his chest.
he started playing with my hair and I started getting sleepy.
you: put on a show to watch.
he moves his arm over to my nightstand.
grabs the remote and puts on a movie from netflix.
I didn't really pay attention because I knew I was going to fall asleep.
he puts the covers over our legs.
I grab my phone and text my family groupchat 'goodnight'.
since alex was still playing with my hair I soon fell asleep.
again.
in his arms.
