Big Time Gambling
A/N: This one shot is a bit of a sequel on the Big Time Eloping one. Camille and Logan are married and although Mrs. Knight and Mr. Sanders objected to the marriage at first, they finally see that the two lovebirds belong together. Mr. Sanders even allowed the young couple to move into Camille's apartment together and he has moved back to Connecticut. Mrs. Knight keeps an eye out for the newlyweds. Camille and Logan want to spend some sort of miniature honeymoon together and they decide to go to Las Vegas for the weekend.
Camille woke up that morning securely wrapped up in her husband's strong arms. Her head was lying on his chest. She couldn't help but smile as she snuggled closer to him.
"Hey, gorgeous," he whispered softly in her ear.
"Hey, handsome," she whispered back still smiling. "I love waking up in your arms like this."
"Mmm, me too. I love you," he said gently running his hand through her long curls.
"I love you too, Logie Bear," she said.
They inched closer to one another until their lips met in a passionate kiss. Camille's hands moved up to her husband's soft raven black hair. Logan's arms snaked around her slim waist as he deepened the kiss. They only broke off the kiss when they needed to come up for air.
"I just can't get enough of you," Logan said breathlessly. "You are so beautiful, Cami."
"You are just so hot, hubbie of mine," Camille teased. "Let's get up and start this little honeymoon of ours."
"Do we have too?" Logan pouted.
"Yes, baby, we do," she said giggling. "We can't stay in bed all day long. We have made reservations in Vegas, remember. And even though you're so adorable with that cute pout of yours, I'm going to try and resist you this time."
She entangled herself from his strong arms and sat up. Her eyes roamed over her husband's chest and firm abs as he was only wearing a pair of boxer shorts to bed.
"Like what you see, Mrs. Mitchell?" He teased her pressing his lips on hers once again in a sweet kiss.
"You know I do," she answered him.
"I do too," he whispered in her ear as he sat up and pulled his wife closer to him once again.
Camille was wearing a cute tank top and a pair of very short shorts. He tenderly stroked her back and his fingers sneaked to the hem of her tank top.
"Not now, baby," she whispered. "We don't have time for this. Save your energy for tonight."
"You're such a spoil sport," he pouted again.
Camille merely laughed and quickly got out of bed.
"Why don't you jump in the shower and get dressed," she said to Logan. "I'll make us some breakfast."
"Your wish is my command, my lady," he teased her as he got out of bed.
As Logan emerged from the bathroom wearing dark blue skinny jeans, a tight white v-neck and his white converse, breakfast was already served.
"Babe, that smells delicious," he said.
He sat down at the table with her and they enjoyed their breakfast together. Afterwards, Camille disappeared in the bathroom and Logan decided to put their luggage in his car already.
"I'm just gonna drop by the boys real quick before we leave," he told his wife.
He grabbed all of the luggage Camille had prepared the night before and brought everything to his car. He sighed as he saw the amount of bags she had packed.
"We're only gone for a couple of days," he mumbled while bringing everything to his car. "Does she really need all of this?"
"Moving out already, bud?" James joked as he ran into his friend.
James had been working out as he usually did early in the morning and was still wearing his gym clothes.
"No, merely taking my wife on our honeymoon this weekend," Logan answered him.
"Does all of this even fit into the trunk of your car?" James said raising his eyebrows.
"I guess so," Logan sighed.
"Problems?" Carlos asked his friends snacking on a corndog.
"Do you even eat that stuff in the morning?" Logan asked scrunching up his nose in disgust.
"Hey," Carlos objected. "This stuff happens to be delicious and I can eat this whenever I want to."
Logan held up his hands in defense.
"Now, do you need my help or not?" He asked taking a big bite of his corndog.
"All of this needs to go into the trunk of Logan's car," James gestured.
"How long are you going?" Carlos asked his friend quizzically.
"For the weekend," Logan answered him. "Camille packed everything we needed yesterday. Wait until you guys go on a weekend trip with Alexa or Lucy?"
The boys helped their friend and succeeded into getting everything into Logan's trunk. Logan went up to 2J with them.
"Hey," he greeted Kendall, Mrs. Knight and Katie who were sitting at the kitchen table.
"Hey, sweetie," Mrs. Knight said. "Ready for your little honeymoon?"
"We just got done putting all of the luggage into the car," Carlos sighed. "I need to eat right now. I'm starving!"
"What? You just had a corndog," Logan exclaimed.
"Hey, I've been working hard for you, okay," Carlos answered his friend.
Kendall and Katie just rolled their eyes.
"Yep, I'm ready to go," Logan said smiling happily. "I'm just waiting for my wife."
They talked for a while, when finally Camille entered the apartment wearing a floral mini dress and a pair of nice sandals. Logan couldn't stop staring at his wife.
"Logan, you're drooling," Katie said.
"What?" Logan answered confused.
The boys all doubled over in laughter and Mrs. Knight did her utmost best not to laugh as well. Camille walked up to him laughing.
She wrapped her arms around her husband's neck and said:" He's allowed to do this." She placed a sweet kiss on his lips.
They talked a little while longer until it was time to get going. They young couple said their goodbyes and walked over to Logan's car with their hands entertwined. They drove to Las Vegas listening to BTR's music. Camille absolutely loved to hear Logan sing! They stopped every now and then to eat or drink something or use the restrooms and Camille also slept for a while when Logan was driving. They arrived in Vegas that evening. Logan parked his car in the designated area, unloaded his car and proceeded to the front desk of the hotel/casino they were staying at.
"Hey, can I help you guys?" The friendly receptionist asked the couple.
"Yes, I've made a reservation online," Logan started.
"Okay, what's your name?" The receptionist politely asked.
"Logan Mitchell," Logan answered her.
She typed in his name and read: "We have your reservation here for you. I see you've booked the bridal suite. Are you planning on getting married in Vegas?"
"We're already married," Camille said happily. "This actually is our honeymoon."
"Oh, really," the receptionist said enthusiastically. "That's so great! In that case we can offer you guys free meals during your stay and you get some credit too if you'd like to gamble in the casino. That is if you're older than 21?"
"We are 21 already," Logan said. He absolutely hated it when people thought he was younger than he really was.
The receptionist gave them everything they needed and the couple took the elevator up to the 24th floor. The bridal suite was absolutely gorgeous.
"Oh, baby," Camille said. "This is so beautiful! I feel as if I'm part of some sort of fairytale right now."
"You deserve this, my princess," he answered her.
They decided to eat out at first. The young couple was glad to finally get a change to eat alone for a change as they usually ate at Mrs. Knight's. Although they were very thankful that she helped them out, they also enjoyed being alone as a couple. They enjoyed a delicious dinner and decided to stroll around the casino for a bit. They would check out the place at first and only start playing in the morning. Logan and Camille had agreed that they would spend only one day at the casino and go shopping the next at the premium outlet mall.
The next morning, Camille woke up as usual in her husband's strong arms. She was glad they got to spend at least the weekend as their 'kind of honeymoon'. They realized they were still very young and needed to save their money for their future together. That's why they also agreed not to spend too much money on gambling. Camille entangled herself from Logan's arms and decided to take a shower already. She slipped on a nice dress and brushed her long curls. She tiptoed into the bedroom again and found Logan still sound asleep in bed. He was lying on his side softly snoring. Camille couldn't help but smile at the sight.
"Hey, sleepyhead," she teased him drawing circles on his back. "Are you ever gonna hop out of bed so we can start gaining our fortune?"
Logan's eyes fluttered open and he smirked. He turned around as fast as he could and grabbed his wife and pulled her on the bed with him.
"Hey, hey," she joked. "Don't get all carried away, okay. Just get out of bed already and jump in the shower. I'm starving, you know!"
"Really?" Logan teased. " 'Cause I'm not going anywhere without a kiss from my beautiful wife."
Camille smiled brightly and kissed him passionately. Logan got up, took a quick shower and got dressed. Afterwards, the young couple went downstairs and had a lovely breakfast.
"Ready to start gambling?" Logan asked Camille.
"Yeah, I do," she said smiling. "I kind of feel lucky today!"
"Oh do you now," he teased her. "That's because you hope to be spending a lot of money in the mall tomorrow."
"I just might," she teased him right back.
Camille knew for sure that her super smart husband would think things through at first before actually starting to play. He was also quite insecure, so he wouldn't take big risks. They started to gamble and only seemed to be losing at first. Camille was slowly losing interest by now. She really wasn't into all this gambling anyway. Her husband, however, didn't seem ready to give up just yet.
"Hey," she said trying to take his mind of the game. "Why don't we go for a swim for a little while? I want to wear my new bikini."
"Oh, sweetie," Logan answered her. "Can you hold on for just a little while? I'm sure our luck will turn soon. And you've got to stay by my side, 'cause you're my lucky chum!"
Camille sighed.
"Sure, baby," she answered him.
She sat back down next to him at the slot machine and watched him think and play. Logan bit his lip as he was thinking about possible strategies. Camille thought he looked absolutely adorable. So she sat next to him smiling brightly and suddenly she noticed the slot machine started to beep loudly and light up a lot.
"What's going on?" She asked getting curious.
"We're winning, honey," he said getting all excited like a toddler who gets a new toy.
"Really?" Camille exclaimed.
"Shhh," he shushed her. "Don't draw to much attention! Maybe others will steal my method."
"Oh, okay, Logie. Sorry!" Camille said trying to contain her laughter.
The beeping machine itself drew all the attention, she thought. She watched amused as her husband frantically worked on his strategy to win even more. It surprised her that soon after the machine started to beep and light up once again. She could hardly believe what was happening, but every time her husband pressed the button on the slot machine the whole thing lit up.
"I can't believe this," she whispered her eyes drawn to the screen of the slot machine.
"Told you it would work!" Logan said looking smug. "Besides, I have my lucky charm by my side all the time. Look at all this money we gained." He pointed at the amount on the screen.
Camille had to look again and again to believe what she saw.
"Is that really …," she stuttered.
Logan nodded his head his eyes sparkling. They played a little while longer just for fun, until they were both worn out. Logan printed his voucher and went to the cashier to cash out his profit. They young couple then decided to head up to bed. As soon as the doors to the elevator shut, Camille almost jumped into Logan's arms and wildly kissed him.
"Oh, Logie," she exclaimed. "I'm so, so proud of you! This is just so fantastic!"
"It is, baby," he said smiling. "Now you can spend some extra at the mall tomorrow."
The next day after breakfast, the happy couple drove to the outlet mall. They spend a nice relaxing day shopping together and even got to shop at places they never ever were able to shop before. As they walked back to their car late that night, Camille glanced at the Armani bags in her hand.
"You know what, baby?" She said to her husband. "This whole honeymoon really was a fairytale and I'm sure it will be just the beginning of our lives together." She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him in for a passionate kiss.
