Jesy's POV:
"Jazzy, come on! Grandma will have a fit if we're late!" I call up the stairs to my four year old daughter.
I hear her stomping around in her room, roll my eyes at how much she is like me, and go into the living room with the girls.
"Chill out, Jes. We won't be late." Jade says.
"I hope not." I sigh.
"I'm not going." Jasmine says from the doorway. "And you shouldn't either."
We all look at her.
"Why do you say that, Jaz?" Pezza questions.
"You love going to Grandma's house." I say.
"I actually don't like going over there. That's just what she told me to tell you. The only time she pays attention to me when I'm there is when she has company. I remind her of Dad, who she doesn't like. And tonight is a setup."
"Come here, Jasmine." I motion her to me.
She walks over and climbs up on my lap.
"What do you mean tonight is a setup?"
"I overheard Grandma on the phone the last time I was there. She was talking about how she doesn't approve of your relationship with Pezza. She's trying to set you up with some guy named Gavin. He'll be there tonight." Jasmine plays with her fingers.
I look at Pez and see the sadness in her eyes, knowing the same sadness is reflected in my eyes. Sighing deeply, I blink back the tears.
"We're still going and nobody is going to say anything. Let's see how she plays it. Okay?"
The four of them mumble their agreement.
"Good. Let's go."
I pat Jazzy's thigh and she hops down from my lap and heads for the front door. The four of us follow her. I grab my car keys and Pezza grabs Jasmine's backpack. Opening the door, the girls head out to the car while I lock the front door. Jade and Leigh are cuddled up in the back seat and Perrie is buckling Jazzy into her car seat when I get to the car. After buckling in Jazzy, Perrie gets in the front with me. I start the car and begin the drive to my Mum's house.
"Looks like Jazzy was right, somebody else is here." Leigh states.
We all get out of the car. Jazzy is being carried by Leigh-Anne and Pez has her backpack.
"Mum, we're here!"
"Oh, you brought company and the little one." Mum says after coming out of the kitchen to greet us.
"The little one has a name and you knew I was bringing the girls with me."
I swear I see her roll her eyes.
"Come into the living room, Jessica. There's some people I want you to meet."
We all follow her into the living room. Sitting on the couch are a man, a woman, a little girl, and a little boy.
"This is Karina, her children Katie and Kevin, and her brother Gavin. I thought you and Gavin could spend some time together tonight, maybe go out later in the week. Doesn't that sound nice?"
"I think it sounds lovely, Janice." Gavin beams at my Mum.
"That didn't take long." I mumble to the girls.
"Jessica!"
"Huh?"
"You didn't answer the question, dear."
