Chapter 7

James' POV

"C…Ca…Carlos" I stuttered. How? Why? But he…

He started black at me, with big black eyes. TO say that he was shocked would be an understatement. He looked astonished and…and…and beautiful.

"Carlos." I said again. My body was stiff and I don't know what face I wore. I felt my hands tremble around the door knob.

"Carlos! You made it!" said Kendall from behind. He didn't hear me call Carlos' name and he didn't notice me standing there, like a statue. I could feel Kendall walk towards the door, past me and gave Carlos a hug. How did he know him?

I saw Carlos snap from his trance and he shifted his gaze from me to Kendall. "Yeah. I wouldn't miss see my favourite patient's dad, now would I?" he said and gave Kendall a hug. No sooner, Arien came running towards him and Carlos picked her up, giving her a tight hug. "How are you, Arien?" he asked.

"I'm okay, but I have anemia." She said, giving him a small pout. Carlos quirked an eyebrow and I saw Kendall give him a 'I'll tell you later' look.

Carlos nodded and out Arien down.

"Where's Jamie?" Asked Arien.

"I'm hewe!"Called out a little girl, from behind Carlos. She was holding a big present. My eyes widened. What the…

I looked at Carlos, but he was avoiding my eyes. Jamie, a little girl, with lush black hair and hazel eyes…my eyes and my skin colour… She looked like she was about five years old…but if that was true…then…

"Carlos." James said with a new found confidence.

Carlos ignored James and went to the little girl. "Baby, why don't you let Papi carry the box, it must be heavy." Carlos bent down, trying to take the box from his daughter. I knew it. Oh my god. Then. That means…

"No Papi! I can do it! Awien, whewe's your daddy? It's his biwthday prwswnt!" She said. She was adorable, she had two beautiful dimples, when she smiled, just like Carlos and just as stubborn as…me.

"I have a new daddy now! I call him papa! Come on, you have to meet him!" said Arien and she dragged little Jamie away. I looked up at Carlos and he was watching his little girl.

I kept my eyes fixed on Carlos and I saw Kendall look at us, with worry. Carlos had a wine bottle in his hands and Kendall probably wanted us inside the house, instead of standing at the doorway.

"Carlos, come in." Kendal said.

"Oh, right! Um…This is for you." said Carlos, giving Kendall the wine bottle.

"Thank you." Said Kendall. He looked at me and I could see that he was worried. I was practically frozen in from of Carlos. "James... This is Carlos. Arien's Doctor." He them turned to Carlos. "Carlos, this is James, my and Logan's best friend."

"I know who he is, Kendall" I said, angrily. I saw fear flash gross Carlos' eyes and he finally looked at me.

"Really! How?" asked Kendall.

"It's a long story, but can I borrow one of your guest rooms?" I asked

"Sure, I'll let you two get reacquainted." Said Kendall and then he walked away.

I never moved my eyes from Carlos and he was finally looking at me. I couldn't read his face, but his eyes looked scared, hurt, ashamed… He looked tired, but when he came he was so happy and full of life. Just like I knew him to be. His tanned skin didn't have the glow it used to have, his once defined body was still there, but he looked leaner. His hair was the same and his black eyes looked cute as ever. I grabbed his hands and he didn't flinch. I dragged him to one of the guest rooms and locked the door behind us.

Carlos stood in front of me. He hadn't said a word to me, yet. He was still looking at me, just standing there, taking me in.

"Carlos. Do you have the same thing Kendall has?" I asked him. Logan called a few days ago, explaining what had happened and told me that he was going to get back together with Kendall and he was going to make sure that this time, neither Kendall nor Arien would leave him. Kendall told me in detail, when he called me, how he could get pregnant because apparently he has both male and female reproductive organs.

Carlos nodded.

"How old is Jamie?" I asked, holding his hands, tight enough so he couldn't escape.

"… … She'll be five in November…" He said quietly, looking down on his feet.

"Is she mine?" Carlos shot a look of anger towards me. He looked like I had just hit him.

"Is she yours? Is she YOURS? What do you think? Why do you even care anyway! You never cared about me! Why would you care about her?" he yelled.

I was surprised by the sudden outrage and looked at him. "Carlos, please. I care, she's my daughter! You even named her after me, why wouldn't I care?" I asked, begging him to tell me, holding on to his hands so he wouldn't leave, again.

"I know what you did James. I saw everything! I heard the rumors about you, but I was just too stupid to actually listen! I thought you loved me, but it was just sex!"

"No! It wasn't just sex! I did have feelings for you!" I yelled back.

"Save it for someone who believes you." He said. He shook himself from my grasp and stormed out of the door. I followed him.

He ran to Jamie, who was playing with Arien, and brought her into his arms. He then went to find Kendall and apologized and said Happy Birthday to Logan, only to realize that they work at the same hospital. Without much more, Carlos fled the room, taking Jamie with him and not looking back. I tried to follow them, but I didn't have my keys and my car was parked on the other side of the road.

I'm pathetic, I should have followed. I muttered to myself, as I fell on the pavement outside of Kendall's house.

I sat there, crying, not caring what I looked like. I lost him. I lost him again.

"James." Called out Logan.

I continued to cry and wallow in self-pity.

"So, that's Carlos Garcia?"

I nodded.

"He has a daughter…"

"She's mine. He has the same thing Kendall has. He left me, just like Kendall left you and….. you know what the worst part is? I still don't know why. He had my baby, Logan." I cried.

"Well, I guess we just fell in love with guys that were scared of getting hurt and that's why they left. And when we catch them again, it's our job to make sure they know how much we love them and how we could never hurt them. No matter the consequence. Kendall knows his Clinic and his phone number and I know he works at the hospital, I can find out his address, if you want me to." Logan said. This is why he is my best friend.

"Please. Please, I can't lose him again." I cried.

Logan let out a chuckle. "You sound just like I did when I found Kendall." He said, looking back at the house, with a dazed look.

"I…he…Jamie. Logan, I have a daughter. I know nothing about her." I said and I started crying again. Logan sat next to me and hugged me, saying comforting words like, it's okay and it's going to get better.

"Well, it's start to find out some things about her, then. Wanna ask Kendall and Arien?" He suggested.

I furiously nodded my head and walked back inside the beach house.

Logan found Kendall, who was putting on a movie for everyone to see, since they were all tired and fed. Logan hugged Kendall from behind and Kendall twisted his body, giving Logan a little peck on the lips. "Hey babe." He said.

"Hey yourself…Is James okay?" He asked worried.

"Um…Yeah, well you see…Jamie is…"

"Jamie is James' daughter? I know." he stated.

I looked at him like a gaping fish. How did he know?. Kendall read my mind and answered

"I've known Carlos for four years, after I told him how I had Arien, he told me we were in the same boat. He never told me about the other father, but a couple years back when Arien and Jamie were having their play date, Carlos showed me a picture of James…after I showed…him one of ….you." He said blushing. "I was going to tell him that I knew James, but Carlos seemed adamant to not let James know about Jamie, he said James did something and he could never forgive him. I don't know what it was…Look, Logan, I know James is your best friend…but Carlos…he's been through a lot. His family has completely turned their back on him and Jamie is all he has…Carlos is a great guy and no matter how much I like James, I don't know if I want to help James. The only reason I asked Carlos to come today, other than him being one of my best friends, is because I thought he needed to see James. Oh and Carlos never told me his name, but it's pretty hard to forget James Diamond's face." Kendall explained, with a serious face. "But." He said. "If you want me to help, I want to know what happened the day Carlos left James." He said.

Logan's POV

Yeah, and I want to know what happened the day you decided that I couldn't be a part of our daughter's life.

"I'll get James." I said and fled the scene. I found him, in the guest room, face down on the bed. I stood over him and started talking. "Turns out that Kendall knew about the two of you…but Carlos has been suffering and Kendall didn't want Carlos get worse. He told me that Carlos' family abandoned him." That got him to turn around, looking at me scrunched eyebrows. "Kendall said he'd help you if you told him what happened the day he left, but I think you should start from the beginning." I said. He nodded and made his way to the living room, where Kendall was putting the last bits of cake away. I looked around the living room and it was empty, everyone had gone to bed and we would all be heading home together, tomorrow.

"Hey." Kendall said, looking at James' ghostly figure.

"Hi."

"From the beginning Diamond, and please don't sugar coat it." Kendall said.

Carlos' POV

"Papi, why did we leave?" asked Jamie.

I looked at her from the mirror and I saw him. I love my daughter, I love her with all my heart, but when she is the spitting image of the one boy you gave your heart to for the first time, it's hard… "I'm sorry mija. It's just I needed to get back, I have work tomorrow." I lied

"So…awe you leaving me again?" She asked, tears swelling in her eyes. A pang of sadness cut through my heart and…I'm a terrible father.

"You wanna come to the clinic with me tomorrow? You can play with the kids there?" I suggested.

"I wanna play with you, Papi." She said. "…or Arien."

"I'm sorry mija."I said, looking at her.

She didn't say anything, just stared at the road and bit her lips from crying. It was scary how much alike she was to me. She really was the perfect combination of James and me.
