She hung up when her girlfriend walked in.

“Who was that?” Shane said as she wrapped her arms around Carmen’s waist and buried her head in Carmen’s shoulder.

“Mercedes. I was calling to update her on the whole Shay thing. She says hello and to bring your brother by to meet his abuela,” Carmen said smiling.

Shane’s head shot up and she got a smile on her face. “Abuela? Oh man she really wants you to have kids doesn’t she?”

Carmen tilted her head back and laughed while Shane started to move her hands under Carmen’s shirt. “Yes, she really does want us to have kids, even though I told her you aren’t really into the whole kid thing.”

Shane was leaving a trail of kisses on Carmen’s neck, but she stopped when she heard what Carmen was saying.

“I never said that,” She said as she starred into those deep brown eyes.

“Shane you don’t have to say it. Whenever kids are around you try to make the quickest getaway possible. Remember my cousins and nieces and nephews? Yeah you looked like you were being attacked by a pack of wolves.”

“I felt like I was being attacked by a pack of wolves! But seriously, I like Angie.”

“Yeah but when do you ever hold her or play with her? You always end up just talking to Bette about meeting Angie’s future boyfriends at the door with a shotgun.”

“What so I can’t be protective?” the slightest smile crept onto her face.

By this point Shane had Carmen trapped between her and the kitchen counter, with her hands slowly creeping up farther and farther beneath Carmen’s tight t-shirt.

“That’s not what I said, it’s just, you know I’ve never really seen you be particularly affectionate towards kids.”

Shane leaned in and started nibbling on Carmen’s ear. Carmen let out a tiny squeal.

“Yeah well—” Shane started to say something but was suddenly pushed back by her lover.

“Carmen, what the–” Shane turned to see Shay standing in the doorway with a towel wrapped around him.

“What are you guys doing?”

“Uh nothing. I was just um tickling Carmen. Anyways what’s up bud?”
