Just to clear up some confusion, the rooms at their school are conjoined. Its two people per room but there is a conjoining door to another room. That's what Steve meant. He left his key in his room that he shared with Logan, so he asked Carlos for his to get in through the door that joins the rooms.

COnfusing? YES! but it has to be that way. Not all the rooms are conjoined together but some are.

Once again, tough week but my friends got me through it. You know who you are so thank you for dealing with my complaining and my sad tweets.


Camille

Work always sucks. As a senior at Wainavo you are required to have a part time job (whether on campus or off). I got lucky and got one handling things in the theatre department. All I really have to do is make sure no one steals or breaks anything. I usually get off around 9:30 which gives me time to get to my dorm before curfew.

Tonight was one of those slow nights where no one was around so I really was just doing nothing. I sat in the audience just watching the stage when someone called out to me.

"Camille?" a guy yelled from down the aisle. He looked vaguely familiar but then I remember that I had seen him with Carlos before

I smiled slowly as he got closer to me.

"Hi, I know this is weird but um, your friends said that you could maybe help me out." He said a bit out of breath.

I cocked an eyebrow hoping this wasn't some stupid trick or pick up line.

"Um, okay. Who are you exactly?"

"Okay, my bad. I should of said my name first. I'm Steve, future director." He said holding out his hand for me to shake.

I giggled at his cuteness but caught myself midway. My heart belonged to Logan not to this Steve guy.

"You obviously know me, so what is it you need help with?" I asked nicely.

"Well, I know you're already tutoring Logan, and I know you work here at night, but is there any way you could help me out with my video project?"

I was taken aback. Some random guy asking me to star in his video? That's a nit too shady for my taste.

"Um, if you don't mind me asking, what kind of video is it?"

"It's a music video. I have a partner working with me, he wrote the song so it's my job to produce and direct. The problem is no one here has what I want. This is a powerful video and it needs a special girl to play the lead. You're that special girl."

He smiled and I could feel the blush rise on my face. He called me special. That's sweet.

"Um, well okay I guess I could do it. But when would we have the time? I mean I just set my tutoring sessions with Logan and I work here until about none thirty."

"Um, I have a free hour in the morning. Maybe we can schedule it around that time. Plus, Logan is actually my roommate so hopefully, he'll let me take you away from him for a while." He said smiling shyly.

I nodded. He was Logan's roommate? Okay, this is fate. I don't care what anyone says, there's no way in hell that this isn't meant to be.

This video project could be my key into Logan's life. It couldn't hurt to move my schedule around a bit.

I mean love has sacrifices. Right?


Logan

"So, as long as you pass this class you're good right?" Dak asked me.

I looked up from my laptop and nodded.

"Who's this girl that they got for you? You said she was the best right?" He asked.

I rolled my eyes and shut the computer off. Why did he always have to ask questions about every little thing?

"Her name is Camille. She's apparently the best of the best here or whatever in her major." I said.

I had just gotten back from my dinner with Camille and the last thing I wanted to do was listen to my step-brother grill me about her. He knows the basics so why can't he just leave it at that?

"Wait, you're being tutored by Camille? Camille Roberts? Dude, she's better than the best. You are so going to get an A!" He said suddenly excited.

I cocked an eyebrow before turning all my attention on him. How did he know Camille?

"How do you know her? You're in the Medical Major like me and I had no clue who she was."

He looked at me stupidly before answering.

"Well, if you weren't so close-minded then you would know that. Plus, she was in that play last semester that I had to drag you to come see with me. Remember?"

I thought about it for a moment. I don't ever remember Camille before today. I knew what play Dak was talking about. It was one of the seniors last year who wrote it. It was a tragedy and I had to admit it was good. The actors were pretty well into character especially the lead. The lead...

"Wait a minute, was she the lead?" I asked.

"Yup, that was her! Pretty good right?" He said chuckling.

"No, amazing. I'm getting my A!" I said giving him a high five.

"You never know, you might get a little something something on the side, you know? She teaches you some acting and you teach her some anatomy?" Dak said suggestively.

I picked up my pillow and threw it at him. Camille was cute sure, but there was no way in hell I was hooking up with my tutor.


"Do you think we're doing the right thing?" Stephanie asked Carlos.

They were both lying on his bed, with both their legs entwined staring into each others eyes.

Carlo sighed heavily. The last thing he wanted to do was think about that stupid plan of Jo's.

"Babe, can we just not talk about it?" He whispered.

He gave a quick peck on the lips before pulling her in closer to him. He loved the moments when it was just him and her and no one else. It was hard to find these moments but when they came around he took full advantage of them.

"Carlos, she's our friend. They are all our friends. Not to mention we're bringing an innocent person in this. I want Camille to have the world but I don't want to trick her into it. Jo and Kendall are already set into this plan but it's up to us to make sure no one gets hurt. Especially Camille."

Stephanie was really having second thought about this. She never liked meddling into other peoples lives and this was just beyond meddling.

Carlos could tell that his girlfriend was serious about this. He sat up bringing her up with him and tilted her chin upwards so they were still eye to eye.

"I promise you, I will do everything in my power to make sure everything turns out okay. I don't know Steve that well but hopefully he's a good guy. Sweetie don't worry."

She seemed to believe him because right after he finished speaking, she captured him in deep kiss.

"How long do you think we have before James comes back?" She whispered not breaking eye contact.

"An hour. Curfew is at ten so we have time." Carlos answered.

"Not enough." Stephanie said pulling him down in top of her.

"I have all the time in the world with you." He added before they were both lost in each other's bodies.


Next Day

Camille

"Loosen up! You're acting not performing surgery." I said jokingly.

Logan shot me a glare as he started his monologue over again.

"It was a quiet night, and no one could here the little screams of the-"

"Stop. Stop it now." I said a bit frustrated.

I moved from my seat in the front row to sit on the edge of the stage near Logan. He seemed just as frustrated as I was as he sat down next to me.

We were so close that I could smell his cologne. I tried to slide over as discreetly as possible. I got close enough to the point where our elbows were actually touching and I felt like I was about to die. He smelled so damn good. I blushed a bit as I leaned in a bit to get a better smell of him. It was all going good until the doors to the theatre opened and Steve came walking in.

I glared at him before softening my expression as he got closer. Sadly, my Logie would have to wait.

"Sorry, am I interrupting a session?" Steve asked.

"Um, yeah. I have at least another hour and a half with him. What do you need?" I asked through clenched teeth. I was trying not to be pissed but it was kind of hard not to be.

"It's alright man, I was hoping for a break anyway." Logan said before pulling out his phone and walking to the back of the theatre.

Steve and I watched as he walked away. Another moment ruined.

"Listen, I'm sorry about that, but I was wondering if you'd like to eat dinner with me sometime this week?" Steve asked.

My eyes widened. I looked towards the back of the theatre and hoped that Logan couldn't hear us. I bit my lip and looked at Steve.

"I don't know..." I said hesitantly.

"Look, it's not a date. I just want to talk about the project more with you. Maybe get to know you a bit better too if we have time?" He said shyly.

I had to admit, something about this guy was pretty attractive. Nothing compared to Logan but not that far away.

"Okay, how about tomorrow night. You and I?" I answered.

His smile grew as he nodded. "I'll see you then?" he asked.

I nodded as he walked away.

I watched as he glanced back at me for a second before leaving the theatre. He was adorable.

"Hey, I didn't know you too were dating." Logan said appearing behind me.

I literally jumped from my seat on the stage onto the floor. I flushed in embarrassment as Logan rushed to help me. He grabbed my hand and pulled me up and then checked for any wounds.

"Camille, I am so sorry. I figured you knew I was behind you." He continued to apologize as I just stared at our hands. The spark was there and my body was on fire. I didn't know how I was managing to keep myself from hyperventilating. He didn't even notice that our hands were still locked.

He just kept apologizing for scaring me. It was sweet. Plus, his hand was so soft and warm. I didn't want to let go.

"Logan, you can stop apologizing now. I'm fine. I'm perfect actually." I said smiling.

He looked down at our hands before blushing and quickly letting go. I instantly felt freezing as his warmth disappeared.

"I didn't mean to snoop but when I heard him ask you out, I just became curious." He explained.

"I understand but I'm not dating him or anything like that. He needed an actress to help him with his video project and I told him I would help him. We're just having dinner to discuss things." I explained.

He nodded and let out a sigh of relief. Or at least I was hoping it was a sigh of relief.

"Okay, then. So, do we go back to practicing my monologue?" He said changing the subject.

I looked back at the stage and an idea suddenly came into mind.

"Do you want to get out of here?" I said suddenly.

He looked at me confusingly before responding.

"What?"

"Let's go somewhere. Being in this dark theatre is obviously not comfortable for you. Let's get out of here."

"But go where?" He asked.

I grabbed his hand in mine again and led him towards the aisle.

"Live a little Logan. If you can't practice your monologue here. We're going to find one where you can."

He didn't protest as I threw his bag at him and led him out of the theatre and outside. On the way out we passed Steve and I couldn't help but notice him staring at Logan's hand in mine. I quickly turned away from him and continued on.

Ten minutes later, we were exactly where we should be. Logan and I were standing in front of the iron gate that led to the Wainavo garden. I pulled out my key and unlocked the gate leading Logan inside.

"You have to promise not to tell anyone about this okay?"

He nodded as he looked around at the flowers.

The garden had to be the most beautiful thing anyone could ever see here at this school. Yet, only the Science Majors really got to use it.

There were all kinds of plants and flowers just growing here and somehow all their shapes and different colors blended beautifully.

I led Logan to the center of the garden. This was my spot. When I needed to escape, this is where I went. Now it's where Logan could go too.

"Whoa, this is amazing. I've been at this school all four years and I've never seen this part of it at all." He said in wonder.

"Not many have. A friend of mine made me a copy of the key because he knew I needed to get away sometime. Ever since then when I needed to get a role down or just get away for awhile I would always come here."

"Why did you bring me here?"

"Because you're having trouble with this monologue and I thought that maybe the theatre was too much for you. Plus, I was hoping maybe we could just sit here and talk."

"About what?" He said looking at the flowers.

"Anything. I don't know you and you don't know me, so maybe it's time for us to stop being strangers."

I bit my lip hoping he wouldn't think this was weird. I was dying to know everything about him. I wanted him to know my fears and I wanted to know every single one of his. I wanted to know his dreams and goals. I wanted to know everything.

"Oh well, I guess that makes sense." He answered.

I mentally screamed with joy. I can't wait to put all of this in my Logan journal.

"So, I'll start. Why are you a Medical Major? Like what made you want to be in this field?"

"I don't know. My dad was a doctor, I guess that's why. Plus, I like helping people. Why are you in your major?" He said.

"Me? I'm in this major because I love acting. I love being on stage and getting to be someone else. Even if it's in a simple monologue, I still get an escape from myself."

"Why do you want to escape so badly?" He asked.

"What do you mean?"

"Well, you keep talking about escape. How acting helps you escape or how coming to this garden help you escape but why do you need an escape so much?" He asked with a tinge of annoyance.

I stared into his eyes for a long time. It's something I've always wanted to do. How do I tell him that he's the reason I need to escape most of the time. If not because I'm stressed than it's because of him. He drives me crazy and just knowing that he's not really mine kills me at times. So I need to get away. I need to have a few moments of sanity to help control the insanity that comes with loving him.

"I just want to I guess. It's like sometimes things get too much and I just need a break from that. Don't you ever feel that way?" I asked.

He thought about it before answering.

"I guess I do. There's a lot of pressure coming from different sides and I can see why you need an escape. I think that's why I worked so hard to get in here in the first place. Too much pressure coming from home and I just needed to get away."

My heart sped up a beat as he spoke. I could relate exactly to what he was saying. We were here for the same reason. I wanted to know from him but before I could his phone beeped and he was pulling it out.

He stood up and grabbed his stuff and my heart sank a bit. He was leaving.

"I'm sorry Camille, but Steve left his key again and I have to let him in. Do you need me to walk you back to your dorm?" He asked nicely.

As much as I wanted and needed to say yes, I didn't.

"No thanks. I'm going to stay here for a bit. I'll see you tomorrow?"

"Uh yeah. I'll see you tomorrow." And with that he walked away.

I sat down next to the orchids and pulled my knees into my chest. I rocked back and forth for what seemed forever. I needed to calm down. I couldn't understand why he could make me feel this way. He was the only person who could get me this messed up. I loved him and yet he didn't know.

As much as I want to scream to the world how much I love Logan Mitchell, I couldn't deal with the possible rejection that might come from it. I needed to wait it out. I had been doing this for years now so another few months wouldn't kill me.

But this love for him just might do the job.


Okay, please don't question Camille's sanity. She's not literally crazy in this chapter, it' just that she's so caught up in it that it's just become her world. I know it doesn't seem healthy but as the story goes on you will understand.

Anyway, I put a bit of Lomille in there just to keep you guys going. Plus, a little bit of Carphanie. I LOVE me some Carphanie.

Now as I was saying watch put for the little things in this story. This story is Lomille but at the same time everyone is included and have their own minor story line. Plus, a character in this is not as they seem. I've already spilled too much so I'll stop there.

I hoped you guys liked this even though it was a total filler. I really want to know how you guys felt with this one. I don;'t think the Lomille part was all that good but I would like a bit of feedback. So...review?

Plus I'd really like to get to 40 reviews. Reviewing is a hassle so no PRESSURE.

Thanks for reading! Love you guys and I hope you all have a great weekend!
