"Lower channel 4, then twist the second job about 25 degrees counter-clockwise," Lauren directs, pointing her fingers at the sound tech intern, Alex.

Alex furrows his brows, trying to follow the semi-confusing directions.

'A little higher," Lauren continues, pointing at the knob.

After she recovered from her mini freakout over Val having the chance to dance with Normani's, she had come back to the real world. There was no way she could handle that spotlight, she even hated it as a child.

"Babbbyyyy sissss," Val's teasing voice enters the auditorium.

Lauren rolls her eyes and ignores him.

"You're gonna want to look over here because...." Val says, but trails off so Lauren has to turn around.

"Val, I'm-" Lauren starts but quickly shuts her mouth when her eyes fall upon Normani.

Lauren is. You are. I am....

"I- You- I'm Lauren..." Lauren stutters out, blinking in disbelief.

His sister is cute tho, real cute.

"Alright, stop teasing her and leave us alone for a second," Mani says, sparing Lauren embarrassment and giving her a chance to get to know his sexy sibling.

"Ohhh, it's like that huh? You pet cats and shun dogs or what?" Val straight up asks, keeping his tone light.

Normani smirks, "Now you know better. I am an equal lover, if you catch my drift."

Lauren definitely caught that drift, she had known already but...it's nice to see the chocolate beauty so open and unashamed.

Val smirks, eying his sister's interest, Anyway, I'll be going, lemme know if you guys wanna meet up around 3 for lunch. I'm thinking Nobu."

"Mmmhmm, " Mani says, without giving him a glance. Could you blame her  though? Lauren had been looking extra right lately.
