"Aquaria, let's go home. It will rain soon" Kameron said, kneeling beside aquaria who is lying in a lateral position on the grass staring at the unknown, not caring about what is happening to her surrounding.
Still not receiving a response, Kameron put her hand on aquaria's shoulder and called her again "Aquaria, come on..."
And minutes pass by, and the gray sky began to pour down, leaving both of them wet. Kameron immediately open the umbrella she was holding and put it above aquaria, who still didn't move an inch. She then closes her eyes and lets out a hurt and painful sob. just like the sky, she is crying all her pains out. And all Kameron can do is just sit there and watch her break down into nothing.

"Hey babe, how's the tour?" You asked aquaria, who's on the other side of the video call. She is currently on a Werq the World tour with Kameron, Miz Cracker, and other famous queens. And instead of being by her side, you are currently in a resort with your office team for a team-building project. And since you're the team lead, you're required to attend.
"It's going well, babe! But still sucks 'cause you're not here!" Aquaria whined while putting makeup on her face.
"I know, I'm really sorry, you know I have to be here..." You reasoned to her, you know Aquaria is still upset about you not being there, since she is used to you being with her when she is on tour. And this kind of setup is probably making her crazy.
Sighing, Aquaria drop her brush and look at you directly through her phone. Locking her chocolate eyes to yours, "I know... I'm not mad, just... Disappointed... I-I just miss you already"
You chuckled lightly at her admission, tugging your lips upward, you notice her drag look "Me too babe, so much... By the way do you have a show today?"
Picking up the brush, Aquaria stared at the vanity in front of her and finish her retouching "Yuppie, we have a show today, by the way, Kam is here too!" Pulling her phone up to show Kameron, who is beside her, also in drag.
"Hi (Y/N), How are you! Heard you're out of town, is that true?" Kameron greeted
"Same as ever Kam, and yeah, I'm currently in a resort with my colleague for a team-building program,"
"I see, so that's why this bitch is sulking the whole time," Kameron stated, shaking her head
"No, I'm not!" You heard Aquaria shout in the background, making both you and Kameron cackle.
"Whatever floats in your boat you whiny bitch," Kameron rolled her eyes at Aquaria, before looking at you again and whispering " She really is,"
"Well I do hope you'll be here soon (Y/N), she starting to annoy the shit out of us here" Kameron gives you a flying kiss before bidding her goodbye and leaving the room, leaving you and Aquaria.
Pointing her phone back to her face, Aquaria rolled her eyes muttering "Bitch" making you laugh loudly.
Calming down from your laugh, you remember you haven't mentioned to Aquaria about your activities today with the team By the way, we're going to have a boat race later on the beach, just near here the resort,"
Aquaria raise her eyebrows, looking interested "Really?"
"Yes, We're fighting against the other department."
"Well, I'm sure you'll win, I know how competitive you are... Such an animal" Aquaria teased
You just glared at her and deny "I'm not!"
"Whatever floats in your head, my love"
"Whatever... " You rolled her eyes at her, then shake your head "Also I remember... "
"Hmm? "
"I supposed to surprise you, but since you're still looking down and sulking—"
"I said I'm not!" Aquaria exclaimed, glaring at you again, making you smirk at her, you continue.
"After this team building, I'm going to follow you there... "
Aquaria's eyes widen from your news, squealing "Wh-What?! As in?! "
"Yes babe, I'll be there next week. I already file a leave and thankfully the management accepted it. I just have to finish all of my work, but either way, I will still be with you." You informed her smiling at her reaction
"OH MY GOD, BABE! I'm so happy!" Still shocked by your news, she keeps squealing and shouting. Locking to each other eyes, she continues "So, you'll be really here?"
"Yes, babe... I'll be with you next week. So don't be sad now oka—"
Before you can even finish your sentence, Ella, your co-work called you "(Y/N), come on! The boating competition is starting!"
Snapping your gaze to the door, where Ella's standing, you replied "Yeah, I'll be there! Just give me a minute!"
"Well come down soon! We need our team lead" Ella laughed, before turning around.
Turning again you head to look at Aquaria, who is still very joyful from your announcement, you informed her about leaving "Well babe that's my cue... I'll call you later?"
Aquaria just let out a deep sigh " fine, fine... I'll see you soon..., "
" I'll see you soon too," you assured her, making her smile once again
"... I—I love you, (Y/N),"
"I love you too, so much... Talk to you later."
" Promise?" Aquaria ask you, giving her dog eyes, making her really look cute
Another smile comes, before replying "I promise... Always."
Another voice was heard from the background calling your name "(Y/N), Come on!"
"I'm coming!" You shouted back "I have to go now, good luck with the show tonight, love you!"
"You too, love you!" Aquaria replied, before ending the call.

Once Aquaria arrive at the club, the place is already filled with people, hoping to get a glimpse of the queens. Aquaria, Kameron, and the rest of the queens have to go to the back entrance to get to the backstage area to avoid being bombarded by the screaming and wild fans.
The backstage has a large dressing room with a long vanity mirror that is hung on the wall with rows of chairs that are already occupied by some of the queens. And since all of them are already in drag, they have time to kill, which they spend it on KiKi.
As they settle down to their area Aquaria began to throw shades to other queens.
"Oh bitch, your face looks shit." Aquaria banter to Miz Cracker, who raised her eyebrow at Aquaria
"Shut up!" Cracker rolled her eyes, finishing her touch up
"So... Will (Y/N) follow you here? "Cracker opens up
"Yaszz! She said it earlier, she just needs to finish all of her work."
"Well that's good, you really need someone to leash you up,"
"Oh hush, you bitch! "
"Well, it's true, right Kam? " Cracker called Kameron, who just look at them and shake her head. "See, she even agrees.."
"You guys are so mean, I swear!" Aquaria whine jokingly "I swear I'm going to tell this to (Y/-"
RingRingRing
Hearing her phone ring, Aquaria open her phone and saw it was your name. She let out a small cheeky smile, that was immediately caught by the two, who instantly knows who was calling.
"Well speaking of the devil..., I'll just take this call," Aquaria informed, before making her way to the hallway.
Not containing the excitement, she immediately answers her phone.
"We just talk earlier baby, you miss me already?" she teased
But instead of getting sarcastic remarks from you like you always did, an unfamiliar voice greeted her
"H-hello... Aquaria..? It's Ella" A voice hesitantly said.
Aquaria immediately felt a strike of anxiousness out of nowhere. Like something is wrong...
"Ohh, hey... Ella? Why are you using (Y/N)'s phone, where is she? "
Really
"Something happened... It's about (Y/N)..., "
"What do you mean, what's wrong..? "
Really
Minutes went by, and instead of an answer, she heard a painful sob coming from the other end.
Aquaria started to get panic "W-Whats wrong Ella, where is (Y/N)?!"
"I-I'm sorry Aquaria... I'm so sorr-"
"Why are you saying sorry?! WHERE IS SHE?!"
"She's dead!!" Ella cried out.
Wrong
A moment of silence entered.
"W-what?" Aquaria slowly ask, hoping she just misheard.
"She drowne— t-the boat turned upside down, and she was not wearing any vest—S-she gave it to me. I-I'm sorry, I'm so so–"
Aquaria felt like her system shut down, and all she can hear are the voices in her head
She's lying She's lying She'lying She'lyingShe'lyingSHE'SLYING!!
"SHUT UP!! " Aquaria burst into the phone, startling not only Ella but also the drag queens and staff who immediately went to see what was going on, especially Kameron and Cracker.
"Aquaria..??" Kameron asked. Instead of getting a reply, Aquaria gets hysterical even more.
"SHUT THE FUCK UP, YOU MOTHER FUCKING LYING BITCH! IT'S NOT TRUE! SO SHUT- "
"Aquaria!" Kameron shouted, finally getting Aquaria's attention.
And for the first time in Kam's life, the beautiful and perfect mug that Aquaria always wear is destroyed by snorts and tears falling down her cheeks. And it turned out to be a disgusting and ruined piece of art.
"What happened?" Kameron asked in a mellow tone, trying to know what was wrong.
Aquaria looked at Kameron with dead eyes, before replying "She said…, (Y/N) 's dead"
~
Remembering that moment, Kameron couldn't help but feel an ache for her friend. She remembers Aquaria almost losing her mind after learning the news. To the point, she wouldn't sleep, eat, think, talk, or even do drag anymore. Which is something she loves to do the most. It's as if Aquaria is not there anymore, but an empty shell.
Kameron closes her eyes for a second before calling Aquaria one again, putting her hand to rub Aquaria's arm "You'll get sick... Let's go home,"
Kameron thought she wouldn't get an answer, but she did. However, instead of being happy hearing her friend speaks again. What she replied broke Kameron's heart even more.
"How can I have one, when she's not here anymore..."
