Emma's POV
While I was working in the Beachside 7, there was this new song playing as I heard:

Some people say that the moment is gone,
and then they tell you that it's time to move on,
but don't you listen to a word that they say,
'cause we got magic that just won't go away

And we may be a hundred worlds apart,
but that won't clean me from your heart

You can't fight the rain when it's already falling,
You can't hide the truth from yourself when you own it,
No one can replace this, I'll always be drawing you closer and closer,
Whatever I do, it's always you
It's always you

And we may be a hundred worlds apart,
but that won't clean me from your heart

You can't fight the rain when it's already falling,
You can't hide the truth from yourself when you own it,
No one can replace this, I'll always be drawing you closer and closer,
Whatever I do

You can't fight the rain when it's already falling,
You can't hide the truth from yourself when you own it,
No one can replace this, I'll always be drawing you closer and closer,
Whatever I do, it's always you
It's always you!
It's always you!

"Come on, Emma. These fresh smoothies aren't gonna serve themselves!" Diego complained.

"I'm sorry, I'm on it." I replied.

I looked out in the distance to see Luke and Andi taking their break. Did I forget to mention Adam and Heather were recruited here as well?

"You tell me; Luke and Andi have been on their break longer than I was." I said as I pointed at them. Diego punched the table, literally.

"Luke! Andi! Your break is over, CHOP CHOP!" Diego shouted.

"Are you always this choppy?" Adam asked.

"Where's your sister?" Diego asked, "She's supposed to be working with the rest of us."

"How do I know?" he replied.

And then minutes later, we heard a big splash in the pool combined with a high-pitched ear-breaking sound effect:

"PROXY!" Maddie screamed.

And then seconds later, two customers started to complain.

"I've been here for more than ten minutes just for one drink." the tall one complained.

"I've been here for half an hour! Where's my drink?" the buff one complained.

"JUST STOP!" Diego shouted.

As of that time he said that, time froze. Everyone literally froze excluding Diego, Maddie, Andi, Luke, Adam, Jax, and me.

E's POV
"Daniel?" I asked.

"Oh, hi. Long time, no seeing you here." he said.

"I guess." I replied.

"Where's Jax?" he asked.

"With... her." I softly said.

"Who?" he asked.

"Emma." I answered.

"I thought you were Emma."

"One of her."

Took him seconds to realize and finally say: "E, Not again."

I was about to cast a spell on him until he froze. I roamed around to see everyone frozen excluding Heather, Axel, and I. I went inside to see them all lovey dovey. Then again... BARF. Matt's pretty good at doing this. Is he just acting or is he starting to like Heather for real? If he is, she isn't looking at the real him so it's worthless.

Emma's POV
Jax came running to me at the bar.

"Are you okay?" he asked, "What happened?"

"Diego froze time." I answered.

"I can fix it, I can fix it." Diego stated.

He tried throwing fire everywhere and doing other Kanay stuff but still nothing.

"I can't fix it." he concluded.
