Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shootin' stars
I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now

N; hey, Erick this is Naomi. can we meet up again sometime?

i stare at the text, surprised as hell. she wants to meet? me? again? this is definitely a first.
"what are you staring at like that?" Joel startled me from behind, smirking as he reads the text on my phone.
"ooh, who's this?" apparently, i have attracted a crowd within the one minute that joel was being nosy and reading my text. Zabdiel, his girlfriend Chloe, Joel's wife Faye as well as my other band mates and their significant others gather around me
today is the day we all hang out without their kids. it's supposed to be a chill day but apparently Naomis text has turned it into a Let's Tease Erick day. I mean, i shouldn't be  talking; the woman makes me a bit crazy but it's not like i teased Joel or Zabdiel or Richard when they fell for their significant others.
"Oh my god, you preschoolers, stop teasing him" Chloe to the rescue indeed.
she smiles warmly at me "im sure she must be an amazing person and we all can't wait to meet her"
"wow mom" Zabdiel snickers, earning a hard nudge to the ribs from his girlfriend. he winces and they both walk off, bickering like the quintessential couple would.
i do a slow perusal of the text again and then start typing.
E; tell you what, let's meet tomorrow, i'll pick you up at 7. how'd you like to meet the rest of CNCO?
N; holy fucking shit, i would LOVE that.
N; ugh now i have to go shopping since my closet is shit.
E; lmao dress however you like. and chillax. see you tomorrow
N; it's a date :))

if i can survive through it, sure

Yeah, yeah I could use a dream or a genie or a wish
To go back to a place much simpler than this
Cause after all the partying and smashing and crashing
And all the glitz and glam and the fashion
And all the pandemonium and all the madness
There comes a time when you fade to the blackness
And when you're staring at the phone in your lap
And you hoping but them people never call you back
But that's just how the story unfolds
You get another hand soon after you fold
And when your plans unravel in the sand
What would you wish for, if you had one chance?
