That Should Be Me

I never imagined falling in love with my best friend. I always thought that she would just be my best friend, nothing more. Yes, I, Logan Mitchell, had fallen in love with my best friend, Jo Taylor. She was the perfect girl. Of course, I had other best friends, too. They were guys, Kendall Knight, James Diamond, and Carlos Garcia. One of those friends were dating my best friend. Yes, Kendall was dating Jo. They were the Palmwoods' longest lasting couple.

I first met Jo when we were just toddlers. I lived in Minnesota, but I was visiting some family down in North Carolina. Her parents were close friends and neighbors with my grandmother. One day while wr were staying down there on vacation, her parents came over to celebrate my grandma's birthday. They also brought her over. Our parents say that it was an instant click between us. Right when we saw each other, we were buddies. Ever since that day, we were best friends that would never ever be seperated by anything.

I would visit my grandparents every chance I could just to see her. Although I had no feelings for her at the time, we had such a great time together just talking and other random things. One time, udring a blazing hot summer day, we went swimming in a river about a mile from her house. We shared our secrets. It was an amazing time. As we got back to town, we were both grounded for leaving without telling one of the adults. Even though we were forbidden to see each other, after everyone fell asleep, I would sneak into her window. It was our "personal" time. I miss all those wonderful memories.

Now, all those fantastic times that we could be having, she is spending with Kendall. We could be the longest lasting couple. We could be kissing in the moonlight. We could be...

"Logan!" Jo exclaimed from across the table.

I shook my head to return to reality. I was deep in thought before I was interrupted. When I finally focused on what was actually going on, We were sitting beside the Palmwoods Poo. I saw Jo sitting across from me. Right beside of her was Kendall with his arm slung around Jo's shoulders. Her arm rested on his right thigh, and her head was on his shoulder.

"Are you alright?" Jo asked.

"Yeah. I just kinda zoned out for a minute. Sorry," I apologized,

"It's cool, man," Kendall answered.

"Now, what were we talking about?" I questioned.

"Oh," James commented which also let me know that he was with us, "we were discussing about Jo coming with us on the Worldwide tour."

The "Worldwide" tour was literally a worldwide tour. It was named after our ballad, "Worldwide", and since it was going to be all around the world, we made up that name.

"Oh yeah," I remembered, "I think it would be a cool thing for her to come with us. It would be fun." The reason I wanted her to go was for me to see her and try to get my chance with her.

"I don;t want to get in your guys; way of anything, I mean it's your tour to get away from everthing here," Jo said.

"Come on, Jo," Carlos begged. "You have to come with us. It won't be as fun."

"What about Camille? She won;t have anyone here with her?" Jo questioned.

"She has a movie gig. She would go with us to keep Logan company, but she's doing her thing here, Right Logan?" answered Kendall.

I had only dated her once. That was a few months ago when I first started having feelings for Jo. We didn't even last that long. I only went out with her to go on double dates with Kendall and Jo, so I could see her. That didn't turn out too well because when we would be out somewhere all they did was kiss and kiss. At that point, I broke up with Camille.

"I guess I'll go with you guys even though I'll be destroying your guy time," Jo was defeatened.

Kendall spoke, "No you won't. You'll only make my time better.

At the end of that sentence, the couple started kissing like one of their usual conversations. Carlos, James, and I blocked out by focusing on something else except Jo and Kendall. I slipped my phone out of my jeans pocket. I pretended to text someone until the lovebirds. Then, after I actually sent a text, they still weren't finished kissing. I faked a call to get up and leave. I walked to the elavotor and "hung up" the phone. It was going to be a llooooonnnnnggggggg tour.
