It's Cold and I Don't Want To Be Here
You'll Be Excited
"Mikey! Look at all the fish!" I screeched, turning around in circles embracing all the beautiful colors of the fish.
He rolled his eyes and walked up to a tank and looked in, "you know I would much rather have a dog."
"Then get one, I'm paying for the fish, so buy a dog," I said walking over to the clown fish tank.
"Chelle, no you're not. Don't even try to argue with me about this," he snapped.
I huffed and continued to look at the fish, "I wanted them so I'll pay for them, what's your problem grouchy pants?" I asked walking over to him and slipping my arms around his torso.
"Nothing, just drop it, alright?" He removed my arms from around him and walked away.
I looked into the tank that was in front of me, trying to hold back tears, "you know if you're going to be like this while we're here, then you just might at as well go home. I'll find my own way back," I said, trying to keep my voice as steady as possible. What was his problem? Was it Frenchi? Did I do something wrong? The never ending questions racked through my head, I mentally cursed myself for thinking too much.
I saw Mike's body tense up and his jaw clench, he turned around slowly and made fast strides over to me embracing me into a hug. "I'm sorry baby, forgive me?" He asked pulling away from me for a moment and sticking his bottom lip out.
. "Of course I forgive you Mikey, now come on let's go find a tank and pick out the beginning of our family," I smiled up at him and skipped over to the closest person that worked here at Petco.
Eight hundred dollars, twenty seven fish, a shit load of fish aquarium accessories, and a tank later we were on our way home.
"Michelle," Mike whined, "why did you buy so much shit?" He laughed and looked over to me and then back to the mirror to make sure the truck was still following us with the tank.
"I want to make them comfortable! Don't judge me, besides don't tell me you wouldn't spoil your family?" I asked lightly punching him on the arm.
"I would definitely spoil my family, I just wouldn't spend this much money on fish. I would spend this money on an actual family, you know like a family that grows in your belly and comes out of your-"
"Alright! I got it! I got it!" I yelled through my laughter.
"You're so adorable, you know that? I can't wait to make you mine, the future Mrs. Fuentes," he pulled my hand up to his lips and kissed it.
"I can't wait either Mikey, but don't you think it's a little early to be talking about this?"
"Its never too early. No time is soon enough." He stated simply with a smile playing on his lips.
"How many kids do you want?" I blurted out.
Mike tensed up but relaxed seconds later, "shit I don't know, a few. What about you?"
"I don't know either."
Mike nodded his head and continued his our ride back home in perfectly comfortable silence.
We've been home for about two hours, we had the water in the tank and the fish were swimming around happily as I added ornament into the tank.
"Hows it going?" Mike asked sitting next to me on the floor.
I groaned and kept working the ornaments into the sand, " this is a pain in the ass. When are the boys coming?"
"They should be here any second. Vic said he was bringing a girl with him though, I dont know who it is he never said."
. I frowned and sighed, the doorbell rang causing me to jump up and run to the door. I opened the door fast and jumped into Tony's arms "Tony!" I screamed.
. "Michelle!" He screamed back mocking me and laughing a little. "I've missed you short shit."
. "Nice to see you too Michelle," Jaime called out from behind him.
"Hime-Time!" I screamed and ran up to him.
. "Jesus Christ! Is everyone getting hugs besides us?" Vic asked, pouting and pretending to wipe away fake tears. I looked to see if anyone was with him but I couldn't see anybody.
. "Hello Victor, I thought you were bringing someone with you?" I questioned walking over and embracing him in a hug.
. "HE DID!" Someone screamed from behind me, I turned around and saw Anne standing there with the biggest smile on her face.
. "Anne!" I screamed and hugged her.
"Michelle! Come on we've got some little shits to name in here!" Jaime called out from in the house.
"Jaime Alberto Preciado! Don't you dare call my babies that!" I yelled running into the house and smacking him on the head.
He rolled his eyes and walked up to a tank and looked in, "you know I would much rather have a dog."

Notes
I literally went to Petco' s website and looked at all of their. live saltwater fish. I have no life okay? Haha.Next chapter I'll include the types of fish and some ridiculous names, and embarrassing memories of Michelle. What do you think about the baby talk and Mike bringing up marriage? Think he's trying to drop hints?
