POV- jaden

The wind cut at my cheeks as I trudge through the vast are of woods. The chill of night sent shivers down my spine. I know I shouldn't be roaming the woods at night, but it helped clear m head. I could be myself and reflect on life. The woods always seemed to be calling me. I'm not sure why but the voices... I'm not sure where they come from, somewhere in my head. I make my way through the woods until I find what I'm looking for. It's a tree. A California Redwood to be exact. I look up in admiration at the large majestic tree and it's smooth slender trunk. The first branch is way too high up to climb, so I climb up a nearby tree and hop over. The height would usually scare the average person. But I'm not afraid. Fear is a rare emotion for me. I pick up my binoculars and look though the lenses off into the distance. The lake was hardly visible at this time of night. All I could reall pick outfrom it was the rippling reflection of the glowing full moon. I continue to scan the horizon. Imknew what I would see. The same thing as usual. That didn't mean I didn't want to see it. Everything was beautiful when lit by the moonlight. That's when I saw her. An angel. No, but in my yes it could have been. Right below me, under my tree. What was she doing out here? I lower myself to get a better look. Maybe I was seeing things again. I rub my eyes. Still,There she was, silhouetted by the glow of the stars. I could feel my heartbeat quicken. That was her. That was the girl Willow promised. She had to be...

POV- willow

The bright shine of the sun wakes me. I stretch and yawn. After getting ready for an early practice this morning, I instinctively creep to Jadens room to see what he wrote today. He always starts the day with a poem. I introduced it to him as a stress reliever. Hes been writing every morning now since then without fail. I jump in surprise when I hear a quiet snore behind me. Seeing it's Jaden, I freeze in confusion. Jaden always wakes early. What is he doing still in bed? Slowly, I back out of the room. A slight panic arises in my chest. Jaden arises at exactly 5:45 a.m. Every morning, no earlier, no later. He did not like change and was somewhat of a neatfreak. I call junny.

"hey" she says without her usual verve.

" whats wrong?" I ask, concerned. She's the perky type, a trait I lack.

" nothing. Wassup?" she asks, sounding a little more cheerful, but still not herself. I shrug it off.

" okay. Well, Jadens still asleep." I say.

" okaaay. Aaaand?" she prompts me for more, obviously not seeing the problem.

"he never sleeps this late! EVER!" I panic.

"calm yourself! You have a concert in an hour! You can't stress yourself out over this! He's just tired. You said yourself he's been staying out later right?" she reasons.

" yeah." I admit.

" then don't sweat. You should be happy he's acting like the lazy teen he's s'posed to be."she says. I sigh. She's right.

That's why she's my best friend. I would lose my head without her. I get a warm cloth to try and calm my now throbbing headache.

" thanks Junny." I say.

" no problem. And Willow?"she asks.

"yeah?"I answer.

"try not to worry yourself. Jadens a big boy." she says.

"Kay. See you in a lil bit at the concert." I say.

"see you there." she says. I hang up.

POV- willow @ concert

" okay willow,you did great on your last concert. I want this one to Be even better" my manager pep talks.

I do my onstage to try and be that diva rockstar they want. In reality that's not me. But it doesn't matter. This is music business.They don't me. They don't want Willow. They want Wilow Smith, upcoming star. They want me to whip my hair. Stupid and ignorant. That's what they are. I sigh.

" WHAT HAVE I SAID ABOUT THE SIGHING!" my manager growls.

I can't help but be a little shaken at her tone of voice. I wish I could fire her, but that would mix well with Junny and I's friendship. She knowsnit too. I won't fire her, so she treats me like a dog. Junny comes to the dressing room.

" your on in one minute." she says.

"Kay." I say.

" you do your thing girl, good luck!" she gives me a quick squeeze.

"thanks" I hug back and jog off toward the stage.

Apon my entrance, the crowd roared. We started off with my most popular song, whip your hair, then went on to 21st century girl and rockstar. To be honest, I was sick of this crap. Songs with no heart and no meaning. I wish I could change this false image evryone had of me. But I was whip my hair willow. There is nothing I can do to change that.
