I sit at my cousins quincé and I sit next to you. The loud music vibrates my whole body and the whole hall as my cousin dances with her brothers. I smile as my father, her tio, is recording her with my tia's. I smile and I look over at you. I see you eating the tortilla's with beans amd corizo. I smile and laugh. I lean in your ear and say.

"If you weren't stuffing your face right now, I'd kiss you."

I smile and kiss your temple. I pull back and my cousin goes into a tango with her older brother and everyone cheers. I get my phone and start to record on Snap to post on my story. The crowd wows as my cuosins dress turns to red because of the lights. The colors are red and pink, and me and you are dressed in red and pink. We both look great, and I love the way you look like this. I smile and lean into your ear again. I whisper.

"After my cousin's done dancing, do you wanna go dance, mi vida?"

I chuckle and put my arm around your shoulder and take a photo of us. I post it on Snap under my name, "Ale", which is short for Alejandro. My last name is Hernandez, so my name's pretty common for a Mexican.
