Alejandro loved to bring you any and everything you craved. Ice cream at noon, cake for breakfast, and the few times you craved the casserole that Rudolpho made. He wanted you to have an easy pregnancy, and a happy one.

He attended every doctor's appointment, whether in person or through video call if that was what was needed. Alejandro followed every last rule that was set for you. You couldn't eat certain foods, had to stay away from wet paint and other harmful chemicals, you couldn't have certain medications, no smoking or second-hand inhalation, no alcohol, resting but never for too long. All things that you could easily do. Except one...

You loved coffee.

"She can have a little," The doctor spoke only to Alejandro, as he knew you would struggle with cutting yourself off from the beverage you loved so much, "but only two cups a day. I advise that it's only in the morning so that her sleep schedule isn't messed up."

This wasn't hard for Alejandro to keep you on. He'd even brought you down to only one cup in the mornings. You had been doing perfectly, even if a little whiney. Until Alejandro caught you trying to pour a big thermos of the fresh coffee. "Love, you can't have that. Doctors' orders." Alejandro took the thermos from you and set it aside to cradle your pouting face, "How about a hot chocolate? Or a tea?"
