The day Nikki told Cameron that her and Rich were dating, Cameron felt more than heartbroken. He couldn't believe the way things had turned out. He'd spent the better half of his school year waiting for Nikki to realize that they were indeed meant to be together but they had lost their friendship somewhere along the way.
--Every day I look around
Seems that no one's ever satisfied
Could it be that underneath
We've all got something to hide?--
With Cameron's lack of a relationship, he suddenly became the go-to guy for relationship complaining. It seemed everyone in the school came to him whenever something went sour, that is, everyone but Nikki and Rich. Cameron didn't understand why no one was simply happy with the fact that they had a relationship.
--From the moment we arrive
We want to fill the space inside
We all need to feel alive--
Cameron watched as people went from boyfriend to boyfriend or girlfriend to girlfriend faster than he could realize there was a problem between the two.
--If it's love that keeps us breathin'
Gives us something to believe in
Is it fear that makes us blind?
Tell me, why is love so hard to find?
If we hear so much about it
And we can't go on with out it
Let the mystery unwind
Tell me why is love so hard to find--
Cameron began wondering why it was so hard for him to get over Nikki. He couldn't find a reason why he didn't date someone else. There was no one else who made Cameron feel the way Nikki did. Cameron wanted to tell Rich to hold tight to Nikki because there was no one on Earth like her.
--All I know is when you find it
Even the Earth can feel like you're in Heaven
Tell me now, unlock the secret
Help us all to find the hidden treasure
From the moment we arrive
We want to fill the space inside
We all need to feel alive--
Cameron's breath still caught each time he saw her. His heart still skipped a beat when he heard her laugh carried across the cafeteria. His love for her wasn't fading as he was beginning to hope it would.
--If it's love that keeps us breathin'
Gives us something to believe in
Is it fear that makes us blind?
Tell me, why is love so hard to find?--
He wanted to move on but each time he saw her, he fell harder. He wasn't going to just wait around until she came back to him. He'd find a way to get her.
--Why is love so hard to find?
Tell me, why is love so hard to find?
Why is love so hard to find?
Tell me, why is love so hard to find?
Don't you know I'm never gonna give up
Till I find the love?
I'll be searching the whole world over
To find my love…--
That's when he found Jordan.
