One Day At A Time One Shot

You loved Elena with your whole heart, even if you were both sixteen it felt as though you were to have a great future together. You were Elena's first girlfriend as she had only recently come out as a lesbian whereas you had been out for a little longer. Before she came out you had been friends but had liked her more than just as friends, so when she admitted she liked you too and had hidden those feelings along with her sexuality for quite a while.

Although the two of you had been together for a while, you hadn't met her family yet. You obviously knew her little brother Alex from school, but you hadn't met her mother or her grandma yet. She was apprehensive to let you meet them as she claimed they were terribly embarrassing however you wanted to meet them nevertheless, so she agreed to ask if you could come over for dinner.

You walked home with Elena back to the flat she shared with her family. Before she could unlock the door, she turned to you.

"Are you sure you want to meet them?" She asked apprehensively.

"Of course."

She let out a sigh before she opened the door. You knew she didn't want you to meet them, but once the plaster was ripped off it would be a lot easier.

As you entered the flat, you noticed how welcoming and homely it was, it wasn't what you'd imagine from Elena's home with the way she spoke of her mother and grandma, but it was better than expected.

"Mamá," she shouted to her mother whom wasn't in the room.

"Elena is your friend with you?" her mother called back.

Elena rolled her eyes, giving you an apologetic smile.

"My girlfriend, yes she is here."

Before anything else could be said the curtains to your left were flung open revealing a woman.

"Elena," she screeched, "she is not a Cuban girl."

"No Grandma, she isn't Cuban," Elena sighed, giving your hand a gentle squeeze to assure you that everything was to be okay.

Her Grandmother rushed over to you, staring you in the eyes before cupping your cheeks with her hands, showing you a humungous smile.

"But she is very beautiful," she grinned, "And look at that smile on your face Elena, she makes you happy."

"She does make me very happy, abuelita," Elena smiled.

"Mamá, don't scare of Elena's girlfriend," another woman said coming into the room from the back door.

"I am not scaring her," Elena's nan stated.

Elena looked at you, giving you the warm smile that you loved dearly.

"Y/N, this is my abuelita Lydia and my mamá Penelope," she smiled.

"Nice to meet you," you said softly knowing that her family was going to be terribly fun to spend time with.
