A/N: Hiiiiiiiiiyaaaa! I am pleased to announce that there will be kogan in this story in the later chapters yaaaaaay! I got the idea from a post on tumblr. It was Sparia (Spencer/aria) and because logan is spencer and kendall is aria... it will work perfectly. SPOILER ALERT: Sadly, they will not be gay. It's kinda based off of Aria's dreams about Jason. Oh and srry for tht stupid little review thing that "I" wrote. it was my brother and grrrr srry about it. but if u did go on my profile, semi-thanks.

Sammy is supposed to be Sean. Lauren is Lucas.

Chapter 10- Best Friend for Never

"Got a secret, can you keep it? Swear this one you'll save. Better lock it in your pocket, taken this one to the grave. If I show you then I know you won't tell I said. 'Cause two can keep a secret if one of them is dead."

~Secret, by The Pierces

"You have forgotten who you are and so you have forgotten me."

"So you're just gonna leave me and hang out with your old possy of bitches?" Scott questioned James as the walked around the semi-empty mall.

"Just because Dak wasn't always nice to you doesn't mean they were all bitches," James replied.

"I helped you just as much as Dak did. With me, you actually dieted. I didn't make you pu-"

"That was a secret. And the one time you saw me do it was the last time I did it."

Scott rolled his eyes. "Anyways, you think Sammy wants you to ask her out for homecoming?"

James hesitated. "Yeah.. but.. you know how a started helping the yearbook club?"

"Shit, James! You are so not going to ask out a loser!"

"But... Dak was so mean to Lauren... I just feel bad.."

"Your going with Sammy! Besides, if you go with her, you bound to be homecoming king, which is instant popularity."

James just shrugged. He was craving popularity, he just didn't wanna work so hard for it. He rather stay home and order a pizza with Dak.

Because Dak was much different that all the other Rosewood boys, he was extremely popular. When they were in the seventh grade, Dak started getting invited to homecomings all over Rosewood and it continued every year. Dak went to none of them, except for the one at Rosewood High... which Isabelle went to (Logan's brother's girlfriend at the time)... But he wouldn't bring any of his friends.
On the days of the other homecomings, he'd spent the night at James' house and order a pizza. Maybe they'd walk down a block and stay with Logan in his barn. Sometimes Kendall would be at Logan's house and sometimes Dak would spot Carlos on his way to Logan's.

Life was good then. Very good... For those 5 bitches... It sucked for me. But now, it's the complete opposite.

"Hey, James!" greeted a voice. Standing in front of him was Lauren. Scott rolled his eyes.

"James we should go," Scott growled, tugging at James' arm.

"Wait," James insisted. "Hey, Lauren. What's up?"

"Just curious if you were gonna help Yearbook with the homecoming photos..?"

"I can't, sorry," James said, glancing at Scott. Scott smiled and Lauren got a dejected look in her eyes. Just then, James' phone began to ring.

Ask the nerd out or Mommy's little secret gets spilled to the police.

James gasped and bit his lip. How the fuck does he know about that!?

"Is there something wrong?" Scott asked, arching an eyebrow.

"No..." James mumbled.

"Well then let's go," Scott grumbles, tugging at James' arm again.

"One sec, hey Lauren!"

She stopped in her tracks and turned around.

"You wanna go to homecoming with me?"

A smile spread across her face. "Sure, James. See 'ya then... I guess." She then scurried off, a dark blush covering her cheeks.

"You did not just do that!" yelled Scott.

"Sorry..."

"No, you're not sorry! I thought we were friends! I thought we were gonna help each when it came to popularity. But now, I guess, I thought wrong."

With that, Scott stormed off, leaving James alone in the middle of a store. James sighed in fustration and turned around. He gasped and almost fell back into a clothes rack when he saw who was standing behind him, with a devious smile on their face.

"James? Is that you?" Jacob asked. His seeing eye dog's lips curled up and bared his sharp teeth.

"N-no," he replied, mimicing a high-pitched voice. He ran away to the parking lot and sat in his car, gasping and trying to catch his breath. His phone then rang, again. He picked it up slowly.

Hey BFF! That's what happens why you try to replace me. Btw, D stands for Dak not dumb-ass!
~D

James slipped his phone away and nervously began to start his car. Taped on his steering wheel was a hundred dollar bill and a post-it which read:

Don't underestimate me. I know everything. But you still get your reward.
