"And she's here." I heard Jo cry out as the sound of the front door being opened.
Walked in was Eva, in casual wear and a backpack by her side. "Hey Aunt Jo...oh hey Ami!" She piped up as we hugged, both of us sat down on the couch as Jo ran into the kitchen, getting some drinks.
"Hey want to go shopping with me and a friend tomorrow?" I nudged her shoulder as I pulled out a binder from the side of the couch.
"Oh yeah sure, tomorrow's my last free day before school starts again." She replied back, her body relaxing into the cushions.
I groaned, "Ugh that's so lame, I need another girl to hang out with, but my other friend has school as well. What school do you go?"
"Temple City." I gasped.
"Holy shit, I went to Arcadia!" She looked at me wide-eyed.
"You're fucking lying." I shook my head at her as Jo came to sit across from us.
"What happened girls?" She asked us as she put down glasses of pink lemonade from a tray.
I turned to her still shocked, "Eva and I just found out we went to high school minutes away from each other, literally in the same district."
Eva nodded her head beside me, "Wait how come you don't have school?"
I took a sip of the refreshing lemonade. "I moved to London a few months back but then I got this role and moved back here."
She nodded her head in understanding.
"Okay girls," Jo grabbed our attention, she put a thick binder onto her lap. "I gathered you two here today because we are starting Alex and I's wedding preparations."
Eva and I both squealed in excitement. I had forgotten those two weren't married yet, just engaged.
"Holy fucking shit, Auntie Jo, I've never been to a wedding." I told her as she played with the ring on her finger.
"Well I'm honored to be your first and...okay, Eva and I already talked about this minutes after Alex asked me to marry him, and she said she just wants to be a bridesmaid." She started to say, I turned to Eva who was already looking at dresses beside me.
"So I was wondering if you could be my maid of honor." I snapped my neck to face her.
"You're lying." I stated, I was standing up, looking down at Jo who had a sheepish grin in front of me.
She stood up, walking closer to me, "Oh hell I am not, Azami Navarro. Now would you like to be my maid of honor?" She asked again.
I pause to study her face for any ripples of lies and jokes, but smiled when I detected none. I pulled her into a hug, "Of course Auntie Jo! I'd be so honored oh my gosh." She laughed against the crook of my neck tickling me.
After we had both calmed down, we sat back onto the couch, Aunt Jo handed me a copy of her wedding binder and directing Eva and I along the pages in between.
"Okay so I think we should start off simple, our playlist for the reception." She took out a notepad and a pen, handing another copy of both to us.
"Wait what about dresses and cakes and decorations and-" Eva started to ramble.
Aunt Jo interrupted her, "We can do those later, the playlist will be easy, we just have to put together few lovey dovey songs to slow dance to and some songs for everyone to dance to. Easy. And for the cakes, Alex and I will do that together, he's always like choose whatever for the cake, but I can't just choose whatever."
Eva and I looked each other as we watched Aunt Jo ramble in front of us, both of us awkward and confused.
"Okay songs it is." Eva cut in.
The three of us went onto our phones, browsing out playlists.
"So is there a specific time period we're going for?"
"Umm not really, but definitely not the love rap songs people write about now a days."
I heard Eva groan beside me.
"Ooo how about My Girl by the temptations?"
"I love that song!"
"Add it!"
Jo started to scribble on her notepad.
"How about that song Peggy and Steve danced to at the end of endgame."
Aunt Jo and I both sighed.
"That's a sad one."
"I'm going to cry to that one...add it."
"It's been a long, long time..." I heard Eva mumble as she wrote it down on her notepad.
"Call you mine by Jeff Bernard."
"Blessed by Daniel Caesar"
"Love Again by Brandy and Daniel Caesar"
We all started to shout out songs and agreeing and disagreeing to ones we should add.
"Aunt Jo when did you and Alex meet?" I questioned.
She looked up and thought about it, "I think I was 20 or 21 and Alex is two years older so."
I clicked my tongue as I shook my head. I turned to Eva beside me, "I was gonna suggest 18 by One Direction." She sighed as we continued on, on our search.
"Oh oh! How about He Could Be The One by Hannah Montana!" Eva stood up along with me as we both laughed.
"I've never heard that song before play it." Jo told me.
I pressed on the song, placing the phone onto the table. I turned to Eva and interlocked our arms and started to dance around as the the guitar tune filled the room.
Woo!
Smooth talkin', so rockin'
He's got everything that a girl's wantin'
Guitar cutie, he plays it groovy
And I can't keep myself from doin' somethin' stupid
Think I'm really fallin' for his smile
Get butterflies when he says my name
Woo!
Eva and I sung the words, dancing around in a circle as Jo watched us from her seat, smile wide on her face.
He's got somethin' special
He's got somethin' special
And when he's lookin' at me
I wanna get all sentimental
He's got somethin' special
He's got somethin' special
I can hardly breathe, something's tellin' me
Tellin' me maybe he could be the one
He could be the one, he could be the one
He could be the one, he could be the one
He could be the one
I pretended I was holding a microphone as both Eva and I pulled Aunt Jo onto her feet, making her dance around with us.
He's lightnin', sparks are flyin'
Everywhere I go he's always on my mind and
I'm goin' crazy about him lately
And I can't help myself from how my heart is racin'
Think I'm really diggin' on his vibe
He really blows me away, hey!
We jumped around the room, singing at the top of our lungs, laughing in between each verse.
He's got somethin' special
He's got somethin' special
And when he's lookin' at me
I wanna get all sentimental
He's got somethin' special
He's got somethin' special
I can hardly breathe, something's tellin' me
Tellin' me maybe he could be the one
He could be the one, he could be the one
He could be the one, he could be the one
He could be the one
Eva and I eyed each other down we walked closer to one another, Eva pretended she was playing a guitar and Aunt Jo clapped as she jumped to the beat.
And he's got a way of makin' me feel
Like everything I do is perfectly fine
The stars are aligned when I'm with him
And I'm so into him
We were so into the song, we hadn't realized the front door opened as people walked into the apartment. The three of us unaware of the new audience.
He's got somethin' special
He's got somethin' special
And when he's lookin' at me
I wanna get all sentimental
He's got somethin' special
He's got somethin' special
I can hardly breathe, something's tellin' me
Tellin' me maybe he could be the one
He could be the one, he could be the one
He could be the one, he could be the one
He could be the one (be the one)
We all fell back onto the couch, trying to catch our breaths. My face felt warm at the sudden exercise I just did. I started to laugh as I looked at the ceiling, Aunt Jo and Eva joining along with me.
At this point, we were all laughing at literally nothing while the unknown audience stood in their spot by the front door.
"What the fuck." I jumped from my spot, my head snapping to the voice.
Alex, Kuya, Louis and Willie stood in a line, bags in their arms as Alex looked at us weirdly. Louis and Willie just had a normal face since they were used to me breaking into a song randomly at home. Kuya kept trying to hold in his laugh, but failing miserably.
"Wedding planning" Aunt Jo spoke, shrugging he shoulders before turning to Eva and I. We both looked between each other and broke into laughter again.
