Carlos POV:

I walked into my apartment and heard the most heavenly and heartbreaking sound. Ally was singing, that's the heavenly, but she was singing 'What Hurts the Most' by Rascal Flatts, that's the heartbreaking. I hoped neither of us would ever relate to that song, even as beautiful as it is. I tried to figure out where she was, so I could surprise her with the flowers I bought her. A dozen roses as red as blood, they were her favorite. Finally, I figured out she was in the shower and she hadn't heard me come in. I placed the vase on the counter and walked upstairs, undressing once I was at the top.

As I opened the bathroom door she changed what she was singing, now she was singing 'Love Faces' by Trey Songz, her taste in music was everywhere. I had a feeling I was wrong and that she knew I was there. I walked into the bathroom and she stuck her head out of the curtain. "I want you, in this shower with me, now," She commanded, sounding sexy as ever and I did as she demanded. I pinned her against the wall of the shower and kissed her, which turned into a lot of touching, and that turned into very wet, hot, shower sex.

I stood in the doorway, watching my baby get dressed. She had a smile on her face and was trying to get her sundress on. The dress didn't want to go down over her chest for some reason. I walked up to her and pulled it down; I was on my knees in front of her. She looked down at me, looking like God's gift to the world, her long blonde hair was down her shoulders, her eyes were bright blue with specks of green and gold, her full red lips were curved up into a smile showing all of her teeth.

She held her hand out to me, "L'amour, the ground isn't a proper place for you." I took her hand and stood up. I leaned down and kissed her forehead. "Why must you always look amazing?" I said to her. Her cheeks turned red, "I don't always look amazing, Carlos." She started to walk away, but I grabbed her wrist. I saw her look down at my hand then walk back to me. "Ally, to me you always look amazing. I love you, and even your so called imperfections are amazing to me." I cupped her face in my hands and looked in her eyes, they were turning green. She was going to cry. She bit her lip, trying to stop the tears, I didn't know what was wrong, and so I just kissed her.

"What's wrong, princesa?" I asked her, she bit her lip again and looked away. "I miss home," She whispered out softly. "Then let's go home for a few days, amor." I said to her, "I'll call mama in a little bit, and get plane tickets, we will leave Thursday!" I was getting excited now; I haven't seen my family in so long. She looked up at me, and smiled. "You are truly amazing Carlos Garcia," She kissed the tip of my nose and walked down the stairs. That's when I remembered the roses, I leaned over the railing to watch her gasp, and smell them. I loved making her happy. "Baby, want some corndogs?" she called up the stairs, my second weakness after her, how could I say no? "Yes!" I shouted as I walked down the stairs.

Ally was gone shopping with Jo and Kendall was over playing some video games. I was sitting in the office looking up plane tickets. I hadn't called my mom yet, she was just getting off work. I ordered 2 tickets to Minnesota when my phone rang; I picked it up without checking the caller ID. "You and Ally are staying here you know that right?" it was Mama. "How did you know we were going there, Mama?" I asked her. "A mother always knows." She said and I chuckled. "Are you sure you want us to stay there, I mean we can always get a hotel." I heard her gasp, "Carlos Garcia, you really think I'd even let you get a hotel? You have been in Hollywood too long." I laughed, "Well, where else would we stay but home, Mama?" I could practically see her grin in my mind when she answered, "Exactly, now you and Ally will stay in your old room and on Thursday when you get here there will be a nice dinner waiting for you two and you're grandmother has a surprise for you, the old woman won't even let me know what it is!" she ranted for about a half hour before I stopped her. "Mom I have to go pick up Ally, I'll talk to you later, love you." And I hung up.

"Ally-Cat? Babe you sure you have everything?" I yelled up the stairs, Ally had a habit of forgetting something, so I made sure she made a list and checked it 5 times, and I checked it twice. She walked down the stairs smiling at me, wearing just skinny jeans and a bra. "Yes I am, Carlos." She said smiling at me. I laughed, "Babe what about a shirt?"

She laughed with me, then walked towards me, kissed my cheek and went to the dryer. She pulled out a plain green V-neck and grabbed a purple cardigan. I bit my lip as I watched her pull it on. "Ready to go baby." She winked at me. I grabbed our bags and followed her out the door. The cab riding to LAX was short, and soon we were on our way home.
