Chad's POV:
The next morning, we're all sitting in the living room of the RV.
Then, all of a sudden, I hear my reminder tone on my phone.
I turn my phone on to look at it. Callie's wedding today. Be there at 6pm. It read. I gasp.
The others look at me. "What? What's wrong?," they ask.
"I just got a reminder on my phone that my cousin's wedding is today. How could I forget? My parents have been talking about it for months."
All the others groaned. "Oh, who's getting married?," Carlos asked.
"My cousin Callie, and Pocahontas' nephew, Paul," I said.
"Oh, cool," said Carlos. "Well, where is it, Chad?," Ben asks.
"Charmington," I say. "Wait, that's where Mal's father is on the GPS," Carlos said.
"But, why would he be there?," Mal questioned. "Who knows. Have you met you?," Carlos replied.
Mal gave him the 'Excuse me?!' look, which frightened Carlos.
"I mean, we can totally get to Charmington," he said.
"Uh huh," said Mal, nodding. "Yeah," said Ben. "Wait, if I have to be there at 6pm, then that means I only have to be there for at least the reception after," I said.
"Well, still, if we're going, we cannot go looking like this. We have to wear dresses," said Evie, looking at Mal.
"Fine," said Mal.
"I am not wearing a dress! I am not a girl!," yelled Carlos.
Everyone tried to hold back their laughs. "Not you! Us!," Evie, pointing at herself and the other girls.
"Let's go change," they said, going to the back of the RV, to the bunk room, and locking the door.
"So, what do you guys want to do while we wait for the girls?," Ben asked.
We all shrugged. Then Carlos turned on the T.V.
"We could watch something on T.V.," he said. Something came on the T.V., which was Ben singing Did I Mention at the tourney game. "What the?!" Ben said, looking up at the T.V. "How is that on the T.V.? Tell me that was not filmed or videoed."
Ben looked freaked out. I don't blame him. I would freak out if I saw myself on the T.V. "Why? You don't want anyone seeing you singing your ridiculous love for Mal?," Jay questioned, smirking.
"No. I love Mal. I want the world to know," Ben said immediately.
"Awwwwww," said Carlos, smiling.

Evie's POV:
I'm going through Mal's bag, looking for the dress I put in there.
"Found it!," I said, pulling a dress out of Mal's bag.
"When did that get in there?," asked Mal, sounding confused.
"I never put that in there," she said. "I put it in there when you weren't looking. You never know when you'll need a dress. I always come prepared," I said.
"Right," said Audrey, who was behind me. She had already changed into a pink dress, and was doing her hair.
"Wow. You change fast," I say to her. She shrugs.
"I've had plenty of practice," she says.
Jane was wearing a baby blue color dress, with a little bit of white lace at the bottom.
Lonnie was wearing a white one shoulder dress, with peach color flowers on it.
Me and Mal quickly change into our dresses. Mal's is purple with black lace on it.
Mine is blue and black, the top of it black, and the skirt part of it blue.
We all put on our shoes, and the finishing touches of our outfits, and head back to the living room, which is also the kitchen, to meet the boys.

Mal's POV:
When we get back into the living room, we see the boys watching the T.V.
"Whatcha guys watching?," I ask.
"Oh, you know, just guy stuff," said Carlos. "The Chew?," I question, looking at the T.V. "Yes, and looking at all this food is making me hungry," Carlos said, turning off the T.V.

Soon we arrived at the place where the reception for Chad's cousin's wedding was being held.
"Guys, we're here," Ben whispered, because some of us had fallen asleep a little.
"Ugh. Tell me you guys are not going in there like that," Evie said to the boys.
"Well, what are we supposed to do?," said Jay. "This," Evie said, snapping her fingers, and then the boys were all of a sudden in more fancy, elegant outfits, like blazers, buttoned down shirts, and pants; compared to what most of them were wearing before, which was T-shirt with shorts or jeans.
We start getting off the RV, but then I notice Ben still sitting in the chair in front of the wheel.
"What's wrong?," I ask.
"We're out of gas," he says.
"Oh, who saw that coming?," I say, raising my hand.
"I don't support anyone in there has any," he says.
"I'm sure we'll figure something out," I say, then we both get off the RV.
We walk over to wear everyone is, and head inside.
Everyone is dressed very elegant, and there's a long buffet table on one side of the room, and tables and chairs set up on the other.
There is a grand piano near the corner, along with an acoustic guitar and a stereo.
The center of the room is where the dancing will probably be, considering it's the only other open space in the room.
The ceilings are very high, and the walls are lined with tall windows.
We see Chad already talking to his mother. It's very clear to hear what they're saying.
"Chad, how's your summer? Tell me you're not in summer school again," she says.
"I'm not in summer school, and my friends and I are together this summer on a road trip," he says, motioning to us.
"Oh, well, sounds good," she said, waving to us. "By the way, we know that you're in choir at school, so we were wondering if you could sing something," she said.
"Mom, that's different! In choir, you sing with other people as a group! I can't sing solo! Also, I can't play piano or anything like that!," he whisper-yelled.
"Then, get them to sing. Because the band that was going to play, had to cancel at the last minute because of a funeral," Cinderella said. "I can play some piano, and sing," I said. "Yeah, and I can sing and play some guitar," Ben said.
"Great! Go ahead!," said Cinderella, motioning us to the piano and guitar.
I sit at the piano, and Ben picks up the guitar, and sits at a chair beside the piano.
"Just sing something," Cinderella says. I take a deep breath, look at Ben, he nods, and I start playing the piano, and Ben starts playing the guitar.
