Hello. I noticed there aren't many James/Camille fanfics out there so I just decided to write one, because after watching "Big Time Girlfriends" I thought they were so cute.
This is the very first time I write in English, which is not my first language, so please if you find any grammatical mistakes or sentences out of context point them out in your reviews and I'll fix them. That would really help me out to improve my English.
James Diamond knew he was a handsome boy. He even considered himself to be the prettiest boy out of his friends. Back in Minnesota he could get any girl he wanted, and he went out with almost all the pretty girls at his school. But when he arrived to L.A. all of that changed. He was just another pretty boy that wanted to be famous and he had a lot of competition and barely any girl would look at him twice (like the Jennifers). And the truth was he had never fallen in love. Sure he has had plenty of girlfriends, but he never felt any of them as being the "one". He was hoping to find love once he started living on L.A. but he didn't succeed.
The worst thing was the only girl he had kissed since he moved to Palm Woods was Camille. And is not like he considered Camille to be ugly, she was actually really pretty, the problem was, she was his best friend Logan's girlfriend, and she became the ex-girlfriend because of that kiss.
James didn't know how it happened. When he first gave a lip-lock to Camille it seemed really innocent, but then, like he couldn't control himself, reached out to Camille for a deeper and longer kiss, and it was mutual, she kissed him back. He knew right away that what he was doing was just wrong and he had to stop. But, why did he want to do it again? He just couldn't do that to Logan, he was his best friend, besides, they had promised each other they would only go after girls they met separately. But he couldn't help but wonder if Camille was feeling the same way.
Camille Rogers had fallen in love with Logan Mitchell ever since she saw him for the very first time. There was something about his smile that just captivated her. And when she started to getting to know him she knew that boy had to be hers. Trying to get Logan to notice her was the most difficult job she ever had. She often felt she either was not pretty enough or that she was too weird for any boy to want her.
But one day something changed. Logan started to like her back, and she felt like she was in paradise. Logan never actually asked her to be his girlfriend, but she knew, before Logan went on tour with the boys, that they were an official couple, and he never denied it, so it had to be true.
But she had to ruin everything. One kiss, one silly, acted kiss, ruined her relationship with Logan. The problem wasn't the kiss itself; the problem was who she had kissed: James Diamond, one of Logan's best friends. She didn't know what was going through her mind when she did it. She was a method actress, which means she really got into character. Did this mean she just was a really good actress or did she actually want to kiss James?
Sure, James was a very cute boy (not cuter than Logan at Camille's eyes), but she never saw him as more than a friend. Out of the boys from Big Time Rush, James was the one she got along better with, but that didn't mean she liked him. She just had to concentrate on getting back with Logan, and if that meant she had to stop being friends with James, she would do it, because not matter what it took, she would be Logan's girlfriend again.
Weeks later, Camille's plan didn't seem to be working out. Not only she hadn't get back together with Logan, she was also growing closer to James.
It was just that James was so nice to her, and she wasn't used to people, especially boys, being nice to her. Usually everybody treated her like she was crazy and kept a distance from her.
But there was nothing to worry about, because that only meant she had made a best friend, who happened to be close to Logan, and who could give her advice on how to make him forgive her for good. Also, James always accepted to help her out when she had and audition, but this time she made sure none of the scenes included a kiss.
Katie and Mr. Bitters hadn't quit on spying and meddling on others people's romantic lives ever since the day James and Camille kissed. They were getting even more meddled, they could read between the lines easier than before, and they had the suspicion something was going on between James and Camille.
But it was their fault. They spent almost every minute they had free together, whether it was at the pool, on each other's apartment, or in an audition. Of course they would think there was something going on because they knew they had kissed before.
It was a beautiful day of summer at the Palm Woods and Camille and James were poolside chatting.
"I have an audition for a soap opera tomorrow, want to help me rehearsing?" asked Camille.
"Sure. See you in my apartment tonight at 7 o'clock?" answered James.
"Ok. I'm gonna go get prepared at my place. See you in four hours there" said Camille as she left the pool to go to her apartment.
Before Camille could arrive to her home, she was boarded by Katie, who asked her:
"Hey Camille. I know that is none of my business, but… aren't you interested in Logan anymore?"
"You're right, is none of your business"
"I was just saying because I see you spending a lot of time with James, and I don't think that's going to help you to fix your relationship with Logan" explained Katie.
"What are you talking about? Why should Logan mind that James and I spend time together? There's nothing wrong about that"
"There is if you see him as more than a friend, and you know you do"
"Look, Katie, you may be really smart for your age, but you still don't know anything about relationships, or boys, or love for that matter, so just don't jump into conclusions that aren't right, ok?"
"Sure, but I can tell when a girl likes a boy, and the other way around"
Camille left Katie a bit offended, because deep down, she knew some of Katie's words were true.
James was on his way to his apartment, when Mr. Bitters, who was at his usual spot, called him.
"Diamond. Come over here for a second"
"What's up Mr. Bitters?"
"Someone broke my computer's keyboard, and I know it was either you or any of your friends"
"I swear it wasn't me Mr. Bitters. I was at the pool a few minutes ago, you can ask Camille if you want to, she was with me" James defended himself.
"Sure, your girlfriend is going to save your neck, uh?"
That comment caught James out of guard.
"Ummm… Camille is not my girlfriend"
"Really? I thought she was. I see you together more often than I see Kendall and Jo. Weird!"
"Ok… if that was everything can I go now?"
"Sure but you have to tell your girlfriend to confirm to me you were with her to clear you out of my suspects list"
"She is not my girlfriend!" said James getting mad.
"Alright! Then just tell your very special friend, who happens to be a girl by the way, that I wanna talk to her"
"Camille is special to me, but not in the way you think Mr. Bitters"
"Whatever! Just leave already kid"
James left the lobby confused. Why would Mr. Bitters think Camille was his girlfriend?
Back at the boys' apartment, James found Kendall sitting on the couch watching TV.
"Hi, James" Kendall greeted.
"Hey. Are you gonna be here at 7? Camille is coming and I was hoping we could have the apartment for ourselves. I'm helping her for an audition"
"Ummmm… I'm not sure that's a very good idea" said Kendal in a very serious tone.
"Why?" asked James confused, even more than after he spoke to Mr. Bitters.
"Because people are starting to talk"
"Talk about what?"
"You know, about you and Camille, together, as more than friends"
"And by people you mean?"
"Katie"
"I figured" James knew Katie very well. "Kendall, I can make you sure that there is nothing other than a friendship between me and Camille"
"Yeah I already knew, because you know that would really hurt Logan, right?"
"Right… I swear I would never do that to Logan, but that doesn't mean I can't be friends with Camille and hang out with her"
"Ok, just make sure your friendship doesn't develop into something else"
"Don't worry, I will. Does that mean she can't come tonight?"
"I think you should reschedule your date for another time"
"It's not a date!"
"I know! I'm just saying you should put it on hold until all the rumors vanish"
"All right, I will"
When Camille left her apartment she ran into the Jennifers. She could hear them whispering and pointing at her.
"Did you hear Camille and James are an item now?" said Jennifer 1.
"And after she dated Logan" commented Jennifer 3.
"I also heard they kissed while she was dating him"
"That is so not right! They're best friends!"
Alright, what was up with everybody that day? Why did everybody think she was dating James? And since when did the Jennifers care about what was right or wrong?
James had the feeling he had to see Camille at that moment, so he went to look for her at the pool.
And there they met. They could feel how everybody was looking at them, whispering. He couldn't be happier that Logan took the day off to study Math at an all boys-summer school.
Camille was talking to Jo.
"Hey, here it comes James, bet he's looking for you" said Jo to Camille.
"Why do you think he is looking for me?"
"Oh come on Camille, he is so into you, and I think you're into him as well"
"Well, you are so wrong. What is up with everybody at Palm Woods? They keep telling me James and I have something going on"
"Is just because is so obvious"
"You know if I liked James I would tell you, right?"
"Right, sorry… I know you trust me"
James interrupted the girls' little conversation.
"Hey Camille, can I talk to you for a second?"
"Sure, see you later Jo" and she waved the blonde girl goodbye.
"What's wrong James?"
"I was wondering if you have heard anything weird about us lately"
"You mean how everybody is gossiping about how we are a couple?"
"Yes! This needs to stop. Rumors could ruin my friendship with Logan"
"I know, but I don't know what to do. I keep telling everybody we're not an item but they don't seem to believe me"
"Maybe if we spent less time together…"
"What? Don't you want to be friends with me anymore?"
"No! I do want to be your friend, is just that I don't want people to think we're something else"
"Ok"
"And that also means… I can't see you tonight" said James.
"You know that audition is very important to me, right?" Camille started to feel sad, and also angry at all the stupid people in Palm Woods.
"I know and I'm sorry, but we should do it another time, when all the gossip stops"
"This just can't keep going on"
Guitar dude usually hang out at the pool, writing songs and singing them to people as they came out.
"There's a new love that is blossoming, I can see it in their eyes, when two people are in love, a couple is formed" (A/N: I know it's a really stupid song, but I'm not a songwriter, sorry). Guitar dude was clearly singing to Camille and James.
"We're not a couple!" yelled James and Camille at the same time.
Camille was just tired; she had to do something about it.
And she did something drastically, something that would make all the rumors go away.
She walked upon a table to stand on it.
"Hey everybody, I need your attention please!" she shouted.
"What the hell are you doing Camille? Are you out of your freaking mind?" said James a little bit scared.
"I need to do this" Camille started a little speech "Well, I know many of you here think that me and James have a thing going on, like we are dating or something… well, this is not true, so please, I would be really glad if you stopped talking about us and assuming things that are not right, and maybe talk about someone else if that makes you happy"
Everybody who heard the speech kept quiet for a second; then they just started chatting like if nothing had happened.
"Did you hear Carlos dumped his girlfriend because she didn't like corndogs?" could hear Camille one of the Jennifers telling Jo.
Camille and James were on their way to the boys' apartment.
"Well it turned out they really didn't care about us, they just wanted something to talk about" said James released.
"I know. I'm just glad that we didn't have to cancel our date"
"It's not a date"
"Of course it's not, I know that. But most people would think it is" explained Camille.
"How can they be so silly? Just because a boy and a girl hang out doesn't mean they like each other"
"I know right? Like if boys and girls couldn't be friends"
"Yeah, and just because we kissed once, it didn't mean anything"
"Right, I didn't even feel something"
"I know, it was like kissing a mannequin"
James and Camille were standing in front of the apartment door, and then the unthinkable happened. Something they swore would never happen again.
Their lips met each other in a soft, slow and short kiss.
Then they just kept staring at each other, without being able to believe it.
At that moment Carlos opened the door.
"Hey guys. My dad came to visit me and we are having dinner with Katie and Mrs. Knight. Also Kendall is going to the movies with Jo and Logan hasn't come back. You're gonna be the only ones at the apartment so try to keep it clean or Mrs. Knight is going to kill us. See you later" and he just walked away leaving James and Camille, who were still speechless.
It was going to be a really awkward rehearsal.
I hope you liked it. I doubt I'll write another chapter, but that depends if you guys want to. Let me know. Also let me know how is my grammar!
