*Christina's P.O.V*
We decided to make a video called "A Weekend With The Cimorellis", to let our fans know what a weekend at the Cimorelli household is like. Our first order of business- a Skype with Paige! I typed in her username and pressed the call button. It rang for about 2 seconds and a girl with long caramel hair popped up on the screen.
"Hi!" She said, waving at us with a huge smile across her face.
"Hi, Paige!" We returned the smile.
"We're Skyping with Paige... and we're gonna sing her 'Happy Birthday'... it's her birthday today!" Lisa said into the camera, which was recording the whole thing.
"'Kay, ready?5, 6, 7, 8." I counted down.
"Happy birthday to you,
happy birthday to you,
happy birthday dear Paige,
happy birthday to you. Yay!!!" We sang, then cheered.
We chatted for a bit longer, then hung up by saying, "Bye Paige! Hopefully we'll talk to you on Twitter, and see you in person, eventually."
"Bye Paige!"
"Bye!"
"Happy birthday!"We all yelled right before Paige logged off.
"Okay, guys, next order of business is practicing and recording the new cover!" I exclaimed, earning a chorus of harmonized groans.
"Ugh, just get your lazy butts up so we can get it over with." Amy said.

*Lauren's P.O.V*
"5, 6, 7, 8." A loud voice made me jolt up from my iPod screen to see Christina pressing play to start the karaoke version of 'As Long As You Love Me'. Whoopsie. I just pulled a Dani move there.
"As long as you love me [3x]
We're under pressure,
Seven billion people in the world trying to fit in
Keep it together,
Smile on your face even though your heart is frowning (frowning)
But hey now (hey now), you know, girl (know girl),
We both know it's a cruel world
But I will take my chances
As long as you love me
We could be starving, we could be homeless, we could be broke
As long as you love me
I'll be your platinum, I'll be your silver, I'll be your gold
As long as you lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-love me (love me)
As long as you lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-love me (love me)
I'll be your soldier,
Fighting every second of the day for your dreams, girl
I'll be your Hova
You could be my Destiny's Child on the scene girl
So don't stress (don't stress), don't cry (don't cry), we don't need no wings to fly
Just take my hand
As long as you love me
We could be starving, we could be homeless, we could be broke
As long as you love me
I'll be your platinum, I'll be your silver, I'll be your gold
As long as you lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-love me (love me)
As long as you lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-love me (love me)
[Big Sean]
Yo, B-I-G
I don't know if this makes sense, but you're my hallelujah
Give me a time and place, and I'll rendezvous, and I'll fly you to it,
I'll beat you there
Girl you know I got you
Us, trust...
A couple of things I can't spell without 'U'
Now we are on top of the world, 'cause that's just how we do (do it)
Used to tell me, "Sky's the limit", now the sky's our point of view (view)
Man now we stepping out like, "Whoa" (Oh God)
Cameras point and shoot (shoot)
Ask me what's my best side, I stand back and point at you
You, you the one that I argue with, I feel like I need a new girl to be bothered with,
But the grass ain't always greener on the other side,
It's green where you water it
So I know we got issues baby true, true, true,
But I'd rather work on this with you
Than to go ahead and start with someone new
As long as you love me
As long as you love me (love me yeah yeah yeah)
We could be starving, we could be homeless, we could be broke
As long as you love me
I'll be your platinum (platinum), I'll be your silver, I'll be your gold
As long as you lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-love me
As long as you lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-love me
As long as you lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-love me (I'll be your silver, I'll be your gold)
As long as you lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-love
As long as you love, love, love, love me
As long as you love me (that's all I want baby)
As long as you love, love, love, love me
As long as you love, love, love, love me (please don't go)
As long as you love me
As long as you love me" We sang. I was hardly paying attention. It was difficult to when my iPod would ring every 2 seconds.
"Lauren? Lauren. LAUREN!" I jumped as Dani yelled in my ear, causing everyone else to laugh.I looked beside me to find my little sister with a sheepish look on her face.
"What? It's not my fault that I had to get you to pay attention and stop being distracted by texting Ryan Beatty!"Dani defended herself.
"You were looking over my shoulder at my iPod? You're so nosy!"I yelled at her. Dani opened her mouth to say something, but was interrupted by Amy, Lisa, Katherine, and Christina squealing "Ooooh!"
"Someone's got a crush!" Katherine taunted, and the other girls giggled.
"What? You guys are delusional. I do not!" I said, also lying.
Lisa rolled her eyes. "Please, Lauren, Christina acted the same way with Nick. We all know the truth. Just come clean already."
"Ugh, fine. So maybe I do have a crush on Ryan. Are you happy?" I raised my hands in defeat. All at once the girls squealed and smiled at me.
"Alright, enough of the crush stuff, let's get to recording." Christina said. I sighed and made a mental note to thank her for saving me from having to elaborate about my crush.
"Alright, let's go."Katherine said, herding us out of the room.

*Amy's P.O.V*
As soon as we finished recording, we all set off to a birthday party for Quinn, an adorable 4 year old that's a distant relative. Nothing exciting was really going on at the party, given the birthday girl was 4, but we filmed anyway. Fun fact, the park where the party was was where we shot the 'One Thing' music video. I was sitting on a park bench, listening to Pandora on my phone and also searching the internet, when a shadow fell over me. I looked to see who it was, and I saw a familiar face. Ryan Beatty.
*Katherine's P.O.V*
I was playing with Quinn, the birthday girl, when I looked up to see Amy talking to a boy with light brown hair and plump lips. I was trying to make out who it was, and I knew I had seen him before, but my mind was drawing a blank. Lauren let out a sharp yelp and I jumped.
"Katherine!" She nudged me.
"What?"
"It's Ryan! He's talking to Amy! Does he like her instead of me? Oh my gosh, Katherine, what do I do?" Lauren said, starting to hyperventilate.
"Lauren, calm down. They're not flirting. Amy would never cross that line. She knows you have a crush on him. And just be yourself." I replied.
"Okay, okay." She said, calming down. Then she saw Ryan walking towards us. Her eyes widened. "Did Amy plan this? Why would she not tell me? Ugh." Lauren asked.
"Lauren, chill. Amy probably just wants you to talk with him a bit more, get to know him better. I would have done the same thing, and so would the rest of us. And don't worry, I'll be right next to you, okay?" I said to her. She nodded and smiled.
"Hey, Ryan!" I said with a big smile on my face.
"Hey, Katherine. Hey, Lauren." He nodded and smiled.
"Hi, Ryan." Lauren said in a normal voice. I felt a sense of pride. In spite of all that panicking she had been doing a mere few seconds before, it seemed as if nothing was wrong.
"Um, Katherine, Amy. I don't mean to be rude or anything, but do you mind if I talk to Lauren alone?" He put his hands in the pockets of his jeans and looked up at us, his eyes pleading. Lauren looked at me, her eyes wild like a deer in headlights.
"Sure! Come on, Kath, let's go." Amy said. I nodded and smiled as we turned around and gave them some space. I could feel Lauren shooting daggers in my back. She would thank me later.
"Hey, guys." I said to my sisters, who were scattered across a bench. I slid next to Dani.
"Hey." They replied back.
"What happened over there with you and Lauren?'' Dani asked, turning and using her chin to point to where I could see Lauren less tense and laughing at something Ryan had said.
"Well, Lauren was panicking about Ryan being here," I explained, "But then I gave her some sound sisterly advice, and now she's handling it like a pro." I said smugly.
Christina looked impressed. "Wow. She's growing up." She put a hand on her heart. "They really do grow up so fast." She mock cried. Lisa rolled her eyes and shoved her.
Dani gasped. "Guys, she's coming!" We all turned to face her, ready to pounce.
A large grin was plastered on her face. "He asked me out! He said he liked me but was too shy to say it all along! Oh my gosh- can you believe it?"
"Really? That's awesome!" Amy said. Everyone gathered around her as she told the story of how he asked her out, soaking in all the details.
We sat there for who knows how long, making jokes and laughing. We were only interrupted by a neon pink balloon exploding in the middle of us and cold water splashing our faces.
"Water fight." We all said in unison. We had 5 brothers. We knew how to handle this.
***********************************************************************************
Soaking wet and exhausted, we all collapsed to the ground as our mom ordered us to get in the car. We all happily obliged.
"Mom, we have some big news to tell you." Christina said.
"Oh, really? What is it? That Lauren and Ryan are dating? Or is it something else?" She said, raising an eyebrow. A faint smirk was on her face.
"Wha- how'd you find out?" Lauren asked.
"You guys should learn to be a tad bit quieter next time." She told us.
"Whoops." Amy said.
Our mom shook her head. "Let's go.''

*Lisa's P.O.V*
My hair clung to the back of neck. My face felt as if it were melting. My skin was being burned, each second feeling like agony. I was aboutto burs-
"Hey Lauren."I said to her with the camera focus thingy on my eye.
' 'Hey, Lisa."She said back dreamily.
"Lauren?"I asked.
"Yeah?"She asked in that same dreamy tone.
"Say hi ,you're on the spot."I said quickly.
"Wha- Lisa!"She said, suddenly interested.She swatted for the camera, but my reflexes moved it out of the way before she could take it from me.
''Haha."I teased, sticking my tongue out at her.She scowled in reply.
"Guys, stop fighting.We're here!"Christina interrupted.We all scarmbled out of the van and while Eric was setting up his camera onto his tripod, I decided to do a mini vlog.
In a weird voice, I said,"Filming a video out in the sticks, where's the ocean guys?Oh my gosh!"I also caught Katherine in the act and we were debating whether the 'It can wait' on her shoe was talking about eating and swimming or eating your desserts after dinner.I lay on the ground, not letting Dani take the camera for her DaniCam.Instead, I made a LisaCam.
"Dani!"I yelled after she swooped down and took the camera from me to do a DaniCan.
"Haha, sucker!"She yelled back in reply.Oh, don't you just love my sisters?
♥
It was now Sunday and nothing exciting really happened, but there's a barabecue now and most of our family and freinds are over.Dnai's just walking around, doing her thing by doing a DaniCam, and I'm trying to relax, until Joey, NIck, and Christian decide to scare me by hiding behind the chair I was sitting in.
"Aah!"I screamed, causing everyone to look at me and me to blush.Sigh.Once again, don't you just love my family?
