Johnny turned his head. "Kenzie, you have a guitar... right?" Mackenzie frowned. "Oh... I guess I do.." She opened the door to her room and headed towards her closet. She quickly scrounged around  through her clothes, and, at the bottom of her closet in the very corner, laid her guitar! "Jeez," Mackenzie muttered. "My mom bought this for me ages ago... I was dying to learn how to play it, but I just never got around to it. I was way too busy with dance and everything." Johnny held his hands out. Mackenzie got the signal and placed the guitar in to his hands. As soon as Johnny received the guitar, he started adjusting the strings, and then started to play the tune to "Belle Reprise." Mackenzie gasped. "Johnny! Y-you know that song by heart?" Johnny grinned. "Yup. I mean... I know you're the biggest Beauty and the Beast fan... I guess you kinda inspired me." Mackenzie noticed as Johnny's ears grew bright red. She suppressed a giggle. "Well..." Johnny said awkwardly. "I was thinking, since you have Maddie in your life who's a star, a well-known dancer, a - " "Honestly, Johnny!" Mackenzie sighed as she rolled her eyes. "Don't remind me. Maddie, Maddie, Maddie! That's all I ever hear these days!" Johnny bit his lip. "What I mean is... what if you give up trying to be exactly like Maddie and acquire your own talent? A talent that Maddie doesn't have?" Mackenzie stared blankly at him. Johnny sighed and shook the guitar in front of her face. "You want me to turn into some famous guitar player? Yeah, I'll get right on that." Johnny face planted in to the guitar. "No, Kenzie! What if you try singing? We could sort of be like a dynamic duo. I play the guitar, and you sing. Or, better yet, we both sing together!" Mackenzie suddenly gasped. Her brain thought through everything rather quickly. Johnny has over a thousand followers on instagram, while she only has two hundred. Johnny already has a few fan pages. He's an amazing singer. If the two got together... then maybe she could get signed to a contract. Maybe they could release an album together. Mackenzie stuttered. "Johnny... you're a genius!" Mackenzie swallowed. Johnny shrugged. "Just logic... besides, you have a nice voice... speaking voice I mean." Mackenzie's eyes widened. "For a second there.. I was going to say. How would you know if I have a nice singing voice? The only place I ever sing is in the shower.." Johnny stared at her awkwardly, but continued. "Anyway, why don't you try singing? I'll play "Belle Reprise." Come on, give it a shot, you'll do great." Mackenzie smiled at her friend. "Ummm okay. I-I'll try," she stammered. Johnny smiled at her reassuringly as he started to play the tune to "Belle Reprise." Mackenzie readied herself, then began. "Can you imagine? Me? The wife of that boarish brainless! Madame Gaston can't you just see it? Madame Gaston his little wife? No sir, not me, I guarantee it! I want much more than this provincial life!" Johnny gave her a huge smile. Even Mackenzie didn't think she sounded that bad!"I want adventure in the great wide somewhere... I want it more than I can tell. And for once it might be grand... to have someone... understand. I want so much more than they've got planned." Johnny slammed the guitar down and started clapping forcefully. "KENZIE, THAT WAS AMAZING!!" He then turned around to the camera that was on a stand right in front of them. "And that's Mackenzie Ziegler for you everybody!" He then turned off the camera. Mackenzie blinked. "Wait.. Johnny... you were f-filming the whole time?" Johnny shrugged. "I may have turned on the camera as you were searching for the guitar. But don't worry. I'll cut the video to the part where you started your singing. I will advertise for you, I'll post on my page, I'll do everything. I believe that you can get noticed for your singing." Mackenzie felt her eyes dampen with tears. Johnny was such a sweet friend. "Thank you so much, Johnny. Maybe we can try singing together next time!" Johnny nodded his head in agreement. "Just give it a few weeks, and I'll say you'll have 100,000 views."
