Sailor
I jump out of my bed hearing banging on the door. I look at the ring seeing it's dumb Iván. I look at the time on the tv 7:45 am, you gotta be kidding me.
"Stop banging on my fucking door before I cut your hands off" I watch him pause mid-bang smiling sheepishly at the camera.
"Get ya ass out of bed. I'll be waiting for you and the kids outside" he says. I roll my eyes getting up from my bed.
I go into the hallway knocking on every door constantly repeating 'get up' and 'be ready in 10 minutes.'
Last night I had everyone get their stuff together so we wouldn't have any last-minute problems.
Moments later I hear music blasting from out.... opera music.
I'm gonna whoop his ass. I look out the window to see him... krumping? Jersey dancing? Woo tangin'?
"Mom, can you unlock the door?" Clare yells from downstairs. I get the keys out of my purse unlocking the car door.
I watch as Mia, Cole, and Rosetta gets in Iván's car and the rest get in mine. I do one last check then make my way outside.
"Good morning hermosa" he's cheesing dumb hard from his car. "Good morning Iván" I replied tiredly.
I just want to sleep.

I walk into his house heading straight for the couch so I can get a nap before it's time for the gala.
I feel someone's hand rub my back "I can guarantee my bed is much more comfortable than this couch" Iván says squatting down in front of me.
"I don't feel like getting up" I say with my eyes still close. Next thing I know Iván got me in his arms bridal style. "You smell good" I tell him as he walks up the steps and into his room "Thank you hermosa" he drops me on his bed.
He wasn't lying when he said his bed was more comfortable. "What kind of bed is this?" I need one NEOW. I hear him chuckle "Not telling you just come over to my house to sleep" ha nice try.
I hear the door open and shut. I open my eyes looking around the room quickly taking off my sweatpants and getting under his covers.
Now I'm comfortable.

This is my first celebrity appearance since I had the kids. I use to go to all the parties I mean shit I'm young.
Miss my hot girl life. A little.
Iván grabs my hand as we enter the ball. The dress he chose is literally so beautiful, we all have on black like some fucking demon family.
I asked him 'Is it because I'm back?' and he almost had a mental breakdown trying to explain to me that he thought I would look pretty in black.
Flashback
Iván comes out of his closet with this beautiful dress in his hand and lays it out on the bed. I see the color and an idea comes to my head.
"Why did you choose black? Is it because I'm black?" I ask him and his face turns red "Wh-What? N-No I just thought yo-you'll look pretty in black." he stutters out quickly but slow at the same time.
"Because I'm black?" I ask him again "N-No not be-because of that. Yo-You're just beautiful not because you're black" he says "So you want me white?" I swear I just saw his knees buckle.
