[The audience, not seen, is getting into it, clapping along and cheering, but Cam and Maya? They don't look away from each other.]
I believe in a thing called love! Just listen to the rhythm of my heart~ There's a chance we could make it now! We'll be rockin' 'til the sun goes down~ I BELIEVE IN THING A CALLED LOOOOOOVE, HAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
[The rest of the song goes into guitar solos, and the two kids on stage dance along with them, swinging the microphone doing air guitar, the usual. At one point, Cam begins to "sing" along with the guitar solo and Maya laughs, getting the microphone close enough to him to pick it up.
As the song winds down and the applause gets louder, she's practically hanging off him, and now both of them are laughing. A sloppy, joy-filled hug, and softly, very softly:]
Thanks. Any time, Cam.
[The feed cuts, and Cam's feeling warm and bright. He keeps the D-Terminal in his hand, to his credit not holding it to his heart like he'd like to do now.]
[action]
Yeah. And I love her.
[It's the first time he's ever said it.
The guitar break soon ends and Cam turns back to Maya, who's holding on to the microphone. She's already ready with the next part.]
Touching youuuuuu, [Cam leans in and Maya lays a hand on his arm, subtle and natural.]
Touching meeeeeee,
Touching you, God, you're touching meeeeeeeeee! OOOOOOOOHH!
