"Good morning! Rise and shine!"

Normani groaned. She squinted at the two familiar bodies in her room.

"Mom? What are you guys doing here?"

"We have a company party tonight, and we need you two to attend together," Patricia explained. Normani nodded, sitting up. Ally was still asleep.

"We know you guys have been going out with Lauren and Dinah lately, but we need you guys to publicly go out with just you two," Andrea added, Pat nodding.

"Alright Mom, won't be a problem," Normani said lazily, she was still trying to wake up and they were hitting her with all this information.

"We have people coming over to get you guys ready soon, it's already one in the afternoon. The party starts at six thirty. You are to arrive together and sit together and walk around together," Andrea informed.

"So no walking off, got it," Normani said.

"And hold hands or something," Pat chuckled.

"Will do," Normani half heartedly smiled.

"Okay, we're going downstairs to make lunch, you better get her up soon," Andrea pointed to Ally. Normani nodded and the two mothers left the room.

Normani sighed and groaned, she knew they would have to do this eventually.

"Ally, baby," Normani shook Ally gently. Ally stirred.

"Wha-?" She looked at Normani.

Normani chuckled, "we got to get up, the moms are in the house."

"Who let them in?" Ally said, groaning.

"I didn't. They probably have a key to the house, which we should get back," Normani trailed off. Ally's eyes widened.

"Yeah maybe. What are they here for?" Ally asked, sitting up next to Normani.

"We have to go to a party tonight," Normani said. Ally looked at her with a 'really?' look. Normani laughed, "yes really. I guess were supposed to be going out together more so that it looks like we have some type of relationship. I assume they want our 'proposal'"— Normani put air quotations — "to be public. So before we do that we have to be seen in some type of relationship."

"That makes sense. But still, seriously? A party?" Ally rubbed her temples.

"Hey, it's your dad's party not mine," Normani chuckled, "but they're downstairs and expecting us, so we should go."

"Wait wait wait," Ally grabbed Normani as she began to get out of bed. Normani turned to her. Ally pulled her and went in for a kiss but Normani smirked and pushed her face away.

"Not until you brush your teeth, missy," Normani said, climbing out of their bed.

Ally groaned, "dammit." Normani laughed and walked into the bathroom.

Pat was setting up the table and Andrea was putting the tossed salad on the table when Ally and Normani joined them.

"Ah finally," Pat smiled.

"Morning Mom," Ally greeted her mother with a hug.

"Good morning. There's salad at the table and grilled cheese on the counter," Pat said. Ally nodded.

"Thank you guys for cooking," Normani said, going over to grab a sandwich.

"Of course, it's light since dinner isn't too far away," Andrea smiled, sitting at the table with a glass of water. Pat joined her.
