A/N: Hey guys! So... this is my first attempt at a Kames fic, or actually any fic un-related to Teen Titans but I've read tons of Kames fics and I watch the show continuously so I think I'll do a good job,
I don't know, you tell me!
R&R!

Ch. 1: Two Girls and A Boy
Kendall shut the door to apartment 2J and groaned in frustration. This was unbelievable! He spent so much time crying over Jo, and then he took more time to get over her and now, when he was finally able to move on, she had to come back and make everything so confusing again!
"I swear, Kendall, you have the worst luck ever…" Carlos replied sympathetically upon seeing his friend.
"Carlos!" Logan said sternly "That is NOT what you say to a person when you see them stressed out!"
"Sorry," Carlos replied sheepishly.
"He's right though," Kendall replied "I have the worst luck ever…" he then turned to the oldest member of Big Time Rush and the only one who hadn't said anything in all this.
"What do you think?" Kendall asked James softly "What would you do if you were me?"
"I…don't know man," James said, not quite meeting Kendall's eyes "I mean, sure, Lucy's cool and all that but…you and Jo have history together and you've fought hard to remain together, it'd seem kind of a shame that now that she's back, you don't want her. Then again, she's an actress…opportunities like this one are sure to repeat themselves over the years and, well, long-distance relationships suck man, and they usually don't work…"
"Ugh, thanks, that's a great help!" Kendall said, burying his face in a pillow.
'Of course…there's another, better option…' James thought but he quickly shook those thoughts away because there was NO WAY Kendall Knight would ever want to have anything with him.
An hour later (by the Palmwood's Pool) …
Kendall's indecision, however, was not as warmly accepted by Lucy and Jo, as it had been by his friends.
"Kendall, you HAVE to decide…" Jo said impatiently, arms crossed and a cute pout on her face "I'm not willing to wait forever and I'm sure Lucy's not either…"
"And you'd be right…" Lucy replied walking up to them "Kendall?"
Kendall sighed once again and held his hands up.
"I honestly don't know," he answered truthfully "Both of you girls are so amazing, so unique and special. Jo,"
At this she looked up at him and smiled brightly. Try as he may, he couldn't return her smile.
"I know you and I have history together," he continued "And I honestly do love you, but… I'm not sure a relationship right now would work for both of us…you're just so busy right now with all your acting career and I'm busy too so…I don't know if we'd manage to make it work this time, we barely made it work last time…" he said, making Jo frown.
Kendall then turned to Lucy who merely raised an eyebrow at him.
"Lucy," he said "I love how wild and independent you are, and the fact that you have your own apartment in here with no parental supervision is just- great. Yet, let's face it. You're older than I am, and our interests are different. Besides, I'm not even sure myself that you're sure you want to be with me. I saw the way you acted around Beau, and it seemed as if you really were willing to give him a second chance…and that's okay too, I mean, obviously it isn't 'cause he's a cheater and all that but…there are other guys out there, guys who can give you what you want, what you deserve- I'd love to be that special guy for you Lucy…but I don't think I can be," Kendall finished with a sigh.
"So…" Lucy said slowly "You're not choosing either of us?"
"I'm saying I really don't know and that I need time to think!" Kendall said, getting a bit agitated.
"Well…" Jo said slowly "I'll be here for at least another year, filming New Town High, you can have all the time you need…"
"I guess that goes both ways," Lucy replied "But don't get too hopeful, Kendall…I make no promises to stay single forever, and, I assume, neither does Jo…"
"She's right on that," Jo said and both girls walked away from Kendall, Lucy over to God knows where and Jo to join Camille and Tyler over by the pool.
Kendall gave another frustrated sigh before returning to apartment 2J…
"So…how'd it all go with the ladies?" James asked once Kendall had entered the apartment. He was lying across the orange couch, his legs outstretched, reading a magazine.
"Well enough…I guess," Kendall replied, "Where are Carlos and Logan?" he asked, his eyes quickly scanning the room in search for the two missing band members.
"Down by the pool, they wanted to see how you were dealing with, you know, all this, and they left like five minutes ago…" James said, turning a page of his magazine idly.
"Huh, you'd have thought I would've run into them on my way back," Kendall said thoughtfully.
James didn't reply to that.
What he DID say was "Hey, do you think I'd look good in a headshot as a gym instructor?"
"I don't know," Kendall replied, a tiny bit annoyed at his friend's weird obsession with his looks.
"Hey, just saying…" James replied, holding his hands up in defense.
"Can we focus on my problem now? Please?" Kendall asked patiently.
"Sure," James said, throwing the magazine on the nearby table, sitting upright before crossing his arms over his head.
"I don't know James…" Kendall said, staring down at the floor "They're both wonderful girls, they're both special to me, I don't know how I'll be able to choose one over the other…too many choices to make!"
"You have other choices as well," James said softly, not thinking about what he was saying and regretting it immediately afterwards.
"What do you mean?" Kendall replied.
"I-I mean, there are other girls here at Palm Woods who'd love to go out with you, maybe give THEM a chance…" James said, almost choking up on the word girls.
"It wouldn't work," Kendall replied, shaking his head "I don't want just ANY girl James, I want one who's nice and caring, one I can get along with, who'll understand me and, well, Lucy and Jo are both great in all that."
"Well, so are a lot of other people…" James said, getting upset. After all, wasn't he caring? Wasn't he nice? Didn't he and Kendall get along just fine? Didn't he understand Kendall, even better, than Jo and Lucy did?
"I'm not sure I'm following you…" Kendall said, thoroughly confused.
"I mean!" James said, getting up "That there are lots of other people out there who'd be MUCH better for you! People that wouldn't go off to New Zealand and leave you heartbroken! People who wouldn't even look twice at ex-boyfriends when they're with you! People who are a THOUSAND times better for you than any of those two!"
"People like who? Who do you have in mind?" Kendall asked, looking at him strangely. He hadn't been aware that anybody in Palm Woods was in love with him, Jo and Lucy being the only exceptions.
"People like-like-"James stuttered. Should he tell him now? What would happen if he did?
"Like…?" Kendall encouraged James to go on, genuinely curious.
"People like me, idiot," James said softly, before pressing his lips gently but firmly to Kendall's own.
He pulled away after about 10 seconds, Kendall hadn't pushed him away, but he hadn't kissed him back either.
"Well?" James said staring at Kendall's dumb-struck expression.
That's when he felt Kendall's fist collide with his jaw…
A/N: And that was the first chapter, what do you think?
If you like it I have chapter 2 ready already!
Review!
