Aqua's POV

Willow Shields shows me a video of me using my musical magic while singing. After a while, Willow, Amandla Stenberg and I became close friends. We even made friendship bracelets. I know we just met, but it just happened. We even put together a band using drums, base, guitar, keytar and tambourine. We agreed that Willow is on bass, Amandla is on drums and I'm on guitar. We just need someone on keytar and tambourine. We tried singing Rainbow rocks.

Together: We used to fight with each other. That was before we discovered that when your friendship is real, yeah, you just say what you feel. And the music, yeah the music gets us to the top as we learn learn how the rainbow, rainbow rocks.

Willow: You can pick up the bass.

Aqua: And you can play the guitar.

Amandla: You can bang on the drums.

Together: Or you can sing like a star. And the music, yeah, the music gets us to the top as we learn how the rainbow, rainbow rocks. As we learn how the rainbow, rainbow rocks.

When we finished, we high fived each other saying that the song was great for a first try of singing a song as a band. Willow, Amandla and I did a lot of things together. Then I started to think about Cameron. What was happening between the two girls and I were fun. But then I started to remember that with Cameron gone, why am I having fun? I need Cameron here to join the fun with us.

"Are you okay?" Willow asks me.

"Yeah, I'm fine," I said.

"Thinking about Cameron? It's okay. Jen and Josh told us all what happened and that we needed to be patient with you," Amandla says. They tell me that until Cameron gets back, they'll be there for me. Even though I have two friends now, I still feel like two isn't enough. And even if it was, it wouldn't help. There's still a space inside me that only Cameron can fill. But until he gets back, that space will remain empty.
