Lauren held the door open for Ally as she brought the groceries in into her apartment. When Lauren closed the door, she took some of the bags out of Ally's hand and walked over to the kitchen counter and helped her put everything away. They decided to cook dinner with each other and listen to music.

"What kinda music?" Lauren asks as she hooks her phone up to Ally's blue tooth. "We can't cook without music or it won't taste good. You gotta be in a vibe. So which one? Rap, classical, jazz, pop......you choose."

"Ummmm surprise me." Ally says she turns to finish unpacking the groceries. Lauren presses shuffle and walked away from her phone. She stopped in her tracks when she realized what song came on.

Shoulda' Been There by Sevyn Streeter.

Ally screamed as she turned around, "This is my FAVORITE SONG OF ALL TIME."

"You too?!" Lauren said excitedly with wide eyes. "How come I never knew. I love this song. I heard it at a party and I shazmammed and and I've been in love with it. It's such a vibe."

"Yesssss," Ally nodded. "Dinah played at her birthday a few years ago and that was the first time I had ever heard it. I came across it on shuffle again a few months later on Spotify and had on repeat that whole day. It's such a party vibe song."

"That crazy that we both found the song in the same way." Lauren smiled and she put the cheese and ranch in Ally's refrigerator.

"At a party," the two Latina's said in sync. They both started laughing.

"Before this go wrong," Lauren started singing the lyrics as the song started. Ally smiled and took the next line.

"We should take a break"

Lauren walked closer and mean mugged Ally playfully. "Cause you feel like you know, you know everything"

Ally put her hand up in Lauren face before she laughed out the next line. "Before I go and say some things I'm gonna regret to you"

Lauren moves her hand, "I'mma call up my ladies, and tell 'em how you drove me crazy"

The two girls sang the hook together, "THEY SAY THE CLUB IS GOIN' UP TONIGHT, WE UP IN THERE."

Lauren grabbed the cucumber and sang into it, "POUR ANOTHER CUP TONIGHT CAUSE WE UP IN THERE"

She placed the cumcumber in front of Ally and she happily sang into it.

They sang the song together and jumped around the kitchen and when it was over and Ally ran over to Lauren's phone.

"Let's see if you know this song then." She smiles while typing in Lauren's search engine on Spotify as Lauren put the noodles in the boiling pot of water. Tonight's dinner consisted of spaghetti with meatballs and garlic bread.

Promiscuous by Nelly Furtado featuring Timbaland

Lauren gasped. "Who DOESN'T know that his song?????"

The girls ran to be back-to-back. They wanted to reenact the music video from beginning to end. Lauren was Timabland, Ally was Nelly.

They made sure to say every lyric that their artist they pretended to be said as it came.

"Am I throwin' you off?" Ally asks while looking over her shoulder at Lauren.

"Nope." Lauren shook her head as she folded her arms.

Ally shrugged. "Didn't think so."
