*Josh's POV*
It was 3am and I still couldn't sleep. I tossed and turn but all I could think of was when Dani told me her full name, the part that was stuck in my head was when she said "cimorelli". It reminded me of something but I just couldn't put my finger on it. I looked to the wall on my side as I turned again, I saw a picture of me and Autumn. Wait. Then it all started coming back and I remembered when autumn would endlessly never stop talking about a band, and that band was cimorelli. I immediately grabbed my phone and called autumn. I let it ring a couple times and then she finally picked up.
"Hello?" Autumn said in an obviously tired voice.
"Hi I need to talk to you about something" I said
"Oh my gosh Josh it's 3am what do you want?" She said
"Cimorelli" I whispered, autumn laughed.
"So you did search them up?" She said.
"Not really haha but I think I'm in love with one of them" I said nervously
"Well I mean they are perfect it isn't that hard to fall in love with them especially since your a guy. Haha which one?"
"Dani"
"Aw she's my favorite sister" autumn paused for a second "wait how do you know about Dani if you didn't search them up?"
"She lives across the street from my house" I said, I heard autumn laughing.
"Oh my gosh Josh go to bed its late! Your older you should know better than to make things up, I'm not gonna fall for your little joke"
"No autumn I'm not kidding! Just come over and I'll show you them, all of them they're here!" I heard autumn gasp and I chucked.
"OMG I'M COMING TOMORROW!" She screamed.
"Woah not so loud Autumn"
"DID YOU HANG OUT WITH THEM?"
I laughed and told her everything, her screaming at some points.
"OMG I NEED TO SEE YOU BOTH TOMORROW! WOAH MY COUSIN'S DATING A CIMORELLI SISTER!"
"Woah calm down there I do like her but we're not dating, yet. We're just friends!"
"Whatever I'll make you two date"
"Your a little like Lauren, you two are both very alike in like every way" I heard autumn scream and I laughed again.
"BEST! COMPLIMENT! EVER!" She screamed "anyways I have to go to bed I will definitely see you tomorrow!"
"Haha see you tomorrow" I said.
I hung up and tried to go to sleep and this time it actually worked and I was able to peacefully sleep.THE NEXT DAY
"Josh wake up! Wake up now!" I heard Autumn's voice attempting to wake me up.
"Huh? What why? It's-" I paused to check the time on his clock" oh crap it's already 12" Autumn laughed and pulled my arm. A second later I landed the floor with a thud.
"Ow! What was that for?" I said. Autumn giggled.
"Come on! Let's go meet the Cimorelli sisters! Hurry up I've waited years and I'm not waiting any longer" she said. I remember last night and got up.
"Okay fine I'll go get dressed quickly" I said.
"Don't take longer than ten minutes or I will go to their house myself" she warned. I got up and went to the bathroom. Less than ten minutes later I was out.
"Finally! Alright let's go" Autumn said tugging my arm and pushing me out the door. We walked across the street to the Cimorelli house. I was about to knock on the door when Autumn stopped me.
"Wait! How do I look?" She said. I laughed.
"Autumn you look fine, and besides they won't care how you look they're really nice people" I said. She relaxed a bit and I knocked on the door. This time a girl who I did not recognize answered the door, she was very tall and had short brown hair and kind brown eyes. She smiled.
"Uh hey I'm a friend of Dani and Lauren and my cousin wanted to meet her sisters. She's a fan" I said, since I had only met three of the cimorelli girls I wasn't sure if she was a sister or not.
"Oh my God! Uh hi Katherine I'm a h-huge fan" Autumn said nervously. Katherine smiled and hugged the girl. I could tell that Autumn was freaking out. When Katherine let go she looked at me.
"Oh I know you! I saw you with Dani the other day" I smiled and blushed, Katherine smiled back and turned her attention to Autumn "nice to meet you love! What's your name?"
"A-Autumn" she said. Katherine laughed and said "I'll go get the rest of my sisters!" When Katherine was gone I looked at Autumn.
"Woah oh my gosh did I really just meet Katherine Cimorelli?" Autumn said."yep" I replied smiling. A couple minutes later I saw Katherine and five more girls looking at us. Autumn gasped and I just smiled. I looked at the girls and saw two I didn't recognize. I then looked at Dani and when she looked back at me I blushed slightly.
"Oh hey Josh!" Dani said."hey Dani" I said smiling. Autumn smirked and I rolled my eye.
"Hey guys this is Autumn, she's the cousin of your friend Dani!" Katherine said and I blushed again "she's a fan and she wanted to meet us!"
They all smiled and said hi together.
She shook all of their hands and was grinning like crazy. She greeted each of them using their first names.
"Hi Christina" she said to a girl with light hair and green eyes, she looked to be in her twenties. Christina smiled and said hi back. "Hi Lisa, Amy, Lauren, and Dani" she said and shook all their hands and they each did the same as Christina. "It's so crazy that I'm finally meeting you all!" She said excitedly. Lisa laughed and said "well it's good to meet you too!"
I looked at Autumn and I saw that she was very nervous but also very excited.
"We were actually just about to go to brother's basketball game. Do you wanna come with?" Amy said. Autumn excitedly smiled and nodded and I just shrugged. "YES! THAT WOULD BE WONDERFUL I'D LOVE TO" she put a put a hand to her mouth when she realized she had been yelling "sorry for yelling" she whispered. Dani laughed and said "it's fine don't worry!" Autumn calmed down and smiled.
Lauren smiled at her and said "yeah and we have room in our car if you need a ride"
Autumn looked like she was about to cry. "Oh my gosh yes! Thank you so so so so SO much!" Christina laughed and said "no problem"
As we all got into the car Autumn quickly sat in between Amy and Lisa, smiling at them both. "I thought Dani was your favorite" I said whispering to her. She smiled and whispered"yeah she is but I wanted her to sit next to you" she said winking. I rolled my eyes and sat next to Dani, Lauren sat next to her. Autumn turned around and started talking to Lauren, Lauren smiled and they immediately started making conversation. I knew they would get along. I turned to Dani to see her smiling at me,I smiled back. A couple minutes later we were at the basketball game. I sat next to Dani and Autumn sat next to Lauren. Lauren and Autumn were talking about something, but at the same time they were focusing on the game. I looked at Dani and saw her focusing on the game, I looked down at her hand and saw it hanging from her side. I decided to grab it, Dani looked in shock but smiled at me. She leaned closer to me, resting her head slightly below my shoulder. I smiled at the contact with her. From the corner of my eye I caught Autumn whispering something to Lauren. Then a couple seconds later I saw both of the smirking at me and Dani, I rolled my eyes in response.
Once the game was over Dani quickly let go of my hand and sat up. I frowned and she looked at me and smiled. Like the rest of her sisters she ran to congratulate what seemed like their brother. He looked a lot like Christina,it seemed as if he was 13 or 14. I decided to go with the rest of them.
"Good job Christian!" I heard Lisa say.
"Yeah you totally crushed them" Amy yelled which followed by Katherine nodding in agreement. Once they were done congratulating their brother they all headed to the car. I was about to step in when I was stopped my Lauren and Autumn. "Looks like someone's into Dani!" I heard Lauren say, I blushed when Autumn nodded. "He's basically asking her to marry him!" Autumn said. "Go away uglis!" I said and got in the car. They both got in the car and decided to sit next to each other. I decided that it would be easier to sit next to Katherine since she seemed nice, I sat next to her being greeted by a smile. I smiled back and went on my phone waiting for the short car ride to be over.
When we finally got there I got out and waited for Autumn to get out. I grabbed her arm "come on Autumn we have to go!" I said, she frowned but nodded and we all said our goodbyes, well all but Dani. When Dani finally got out we both walked over to her. "Bye it was fun!" I said, she smiled and said "yeah it was,bye" she said softly. I smiled and blushed again. Autumn smirked and then looked at Dani "honestly thank you so much Dani this was probably the best day of my life!" She said, Dani smiled at her and they both smiled. "Aw no problem we had fun with you!" She said smiling, Autumn nodded and then put a devilish grin on her face.
"Oh and I totally ship you and josh bye" Autumn said running to my house. I processed what she said and then blushed, Dani did the same. Not knowing what to do I quickly ran after Autumn.
Once we were in the house I looked at her and hissed "why did you say that" Autumn just shrugged and said "I couldn't help it, I had to get it out of me" I rolled my eyes at her response and went to the kitchen to make my family an early dinner.
