Logan's P.O.V

"Emily?" James asked, worry lacing his voice. I left James' arms and stood up, I hadn't heard anyone. I looked at Emily and I understood immediately why James sounded worried. Emily was in a state. She had tears streaking down her face, her eyes blood shot from all the crying. She looked broken. I've never seen her like this before. I suddenly felt a twinge of guilt. I haven't spoken to her in a while.

I looked at James for permission; I didn't want a repeat of what happened on the beach those few days ago. He nodded his head. Without any further hesitation I ran to Emily and embraced her, which caused her to sob uncontrollably. I led her away from the picnic spread and James, knowing she wouldn't want to speak in front of him, all the while keeping her closer to me. When we reached a log, we sat down. It was far enough that James wouldn't over hear us.

I brought Emily closer to me and whispered soothing words while I rubbed circles on her back. Once she stopped sobbing I pulled away hesitantly, wiping her tears away with my thumb.

"Better?" I asked. She nodded "Do you want to talk about it?"

"I'm so sorry Logan, I didn't mean to" She said franticly, new tears already forming in her eyes.

"It's ok, Emily" I soothed, placing my hand on hers "What happened?" She seemed reluctant to answer.

"It's not ok. I really am sorry Logan. I didn't mean for it to happen, it just did"

"What happened?" I asked again, patiently.

"We were practicing, trying to make it perfect for you and it just happened. I didn't mean for it happen, honestly"

"For me?" I asked "Emily I don't understand"

"James and I kissed"

Suddenly everything was silent as if Mother Nature herself couldn't believe it. My heart pounded franticly against my chest. They kissed? Wait, don't jump to conclusions. I'm sure it was just a mistake, that's why Emily is so frantic, she feels ashamed. Even as I was trying to reassure myself, part of me was expecting the worst.

"Ok, start from the beginning, what happened?" Emily looked astonished for a second, but it was soon replaced with shame, which made me believe I imagined it.

"Ok" she said taking a deep shaky breath and let it out slowly "I had an idea how James could win you back, and so I showed him. I made a picnic so he could have a feel of how it would be. We even had chocolate covered strawberries. It was perfect, but then it worked to well. I fell for him and I think he fell for me too, because then he kissed me"

As I listened to Emily my heart felt like it was stomped on by an elephant before it shattered into a million pieces. My eyes started stinging as my tears begged to be set free.

"I'm so sorry Logan" She apologized.

"I don't believe you" I stated. Even though my heart was broken into a million pieces there were a few still bound together in hope.

"It's true" She insisted.

"If it was true th-then what about the picnic?" I asked "Why would he still bring me here?"

"Our picnic was yesterday, the one where we kissed" She sighed as if it hurt her to speak of it. I readied myself "We both didn't want to hurt you so we decided it would be better to go ahead with your guys' picnic, so you would have a good memory before he told you we were together"

Even though I readied myself and built a wall around my already shattered heart, there was no way it could with stand this information. James broke the unbreakable wall I surrounded my heart with, before using a flamethrower to burn what was left of my heart to ashes, all while smiling that smile that I fell in love with.

"I'm so sorry Logan. I couldn't let James do it that's why I interrupted the picnic. I'm sorry. I will break up with him if that's what you want?"

My heart was burnt to ashes and yet it still ached. How can I separate Emily and James? I do love James, but if he were truly happy wouldn't that be enough? Because James' happiness is all that counts. I want James to be happy and if it's with Emily and not me, then I have to live with it.

"No" I said my voice sounding firm, not broken as I felt "If you make him happy I can live with it" She hugged me, thanking me, but I didn't hug back.

"We should probably get back" She said pulling away from the hug. We walked back to the picnic site. Suddenly I felt some hope. I didn't think my heart could still feel, but some small part of it did. Maybe Emily is wrong. Maybe James doesn't love her, but just hasn't found a way to tell her yet. My heart rose from the ashes like a phoenix, brought back to life by hope and love. But it was all in vain.

When we returned the picnic, James' car and James were gone. My newly brought-back-to-life heart withered and died. I felt hollow, empty.

"Do you need a lift?" Emily asked giddily.

"Yes, please" I said, my voice a façade of what I truly felt.


James' P.O.V

I watched as Emily and Logan disappeared into the park. I hope Emily is ok. As soon as they were out of view by cell phone buzzed in my pocket. I put it of vibrate so that we couldn't be disturbed. I looked at the screen of my phone and narrowed my eyes at it suspiciously, it was my mother.

"What do you want mother?" I answered, getting straight to the point.

"James, I am still your mother and you will talk to me with respect. We need to talk" I dreaded those four words. I knew Jazz couldn't be trusted. She turned our mother against me.

"Ok, fine, talk" I stated, not showing my growing worry.

"Respect, James, you are not too old to be spanked" I let out a knowing sound. Yeah, sure, you can use your witch powers to spank me through the phone. I giggled softly "Jazz told me everything. When were you going to tell me?" She asked. So I was right this is all Jazz's fault. I love Logan, but he can be too trusting sometimes. Before I could answer she continued.

"I am at Jazz's apartment. You have five minutes to get here" She said before hanging up. I didn't hear the laughter before the call ended, I was in shock. My mom is here, in LA?

I quickly packed everything in my car and drove to Jazz's apartment. Suddenly something hit me as I parked the car. Logan. How could I be such an idiot and just up and leave without telling him. I quickly took out my cell phone and dialled his number. It immediately went to voice mail, so I sent him a text explaining where I was. I looked up at the building where my sister and mother were. It's a wonder it didn't explode from all the evil held up in there.

"I'm here" I said as I entered Jazz's apartment, not bothering to knock "Jazz is a lying bitch. Whatever she said is a lie" I stated.

"Language, young man" The witch had spoken, disguised in a business suit.

"Thank you, mother" The witch's offspring thanked. I swear I heard the building moan in protest.

"Now sit down, we have a lot to catch up on" The witch said.

"Didn't Jazz already fill your head with lies?" I asked.

The witch raised an eyebrow in question, before the offspring giggled.

"So then, you and Logan aren't dating?" The offspring asked.

"You know we are" I growled.

"Well then, I only have one thing to say" The witch said her face deprived of any emotion. I readied myself "Congratulations" she said cracking a smile.

"What?" I asked in disbelieve.

"I am glad that you are happy, and if it's with Logan then even better. It took you guys long enough" My mother said smiling.

"That's almost exactly what Katie said. How did everyone know, but us?"

"Because you are both idiots, duh" Jazz explained.

"So you are not after Logan?" I asked her.

"No" she giggled "I met someone" she blushed, as in she actually blushed! "I think you will actually know her, Camille?"

"Her? Camille?" I asked astonished.

"Yes, yes" My mother said "The bottom line is that both of my children are happy" she said smiling.

"Thanks mom" Jazz and I said in unison, this made my mom's smile broaden.

Suddenly, Jazz's cell phone rang. She answered it with a smile, which quickly disappeared.

"What's wrong?" I asked concerned.

"It's Logan" she answered. My heart started beating at an alarming rate, so loud I almost couldn't hear what Jazz said before she left.

"I don't want is wrong, but I will let you know we I get back. I think its best I go alone"

Before I could protest she left.


Logan's P.O.V

I watched as the waves crashed against the shore. I asked Emily to drop me here; I needed time before I went home. As soon as I sat on the warm sand my tears broke free. I couldn't keep them at bay anymore. I pulled my knees to my chest and placed my forehead on my knees. I let the tears run freely. I could feel myself shaking. I felt completely broken and wrecked. How could James do this to me? He keeps breaking my heart then putting it back together, only to break it again. I don't know if I can handle it anymore. I'm done.

Suddenly I felt a hand on my shoulder, but I didn't look up to see who it was, I didn't care anymore. The person took a seat next to me.

"Logan?" She asked. I looked up to see Jazz.

"He lied" I stated.

"Who? James?" I nodded "What did he lie about?"

I told Jazz everything from Emily interrupting our date to her and James kissing, to James not being there when we came back. Jazz sighed.

"Logan, James does love you"

"But, his kiss with Emily...?"

"I'm not sure if that part is true, but I do know he loves you. How much to do you trust Emily?"

"As much as I trust you. I've given Emily my blessing, she can date James" Jazz opened her mouth to say something, but I continued before she could speak "Its fine Jazz, I'm ok. I've accepted the fact he doesn't love me and that I can't make him happy like Emily can. I'm just not good enough for him" Even as I said the words they hurt. I could feel my eyes stinging with new tears. Emily got up quickly and looked at me angrily.

"Logan, stop cutting yourself short, you are amazing. And how many times do I have to tell you that James does love you"

"But, Emily..." I protested.

"Fine then, believe Emily instead of someone you've know since you were little. I tried to tell you, but you don't want to listen" She said angrily, storming off. New tears started falling. I can't take that chance, the small chance he does have feelings for me. I don't want to get hurt, I can't handle it.

I took out my cell phone and dialled a number I knew by heart. It rang for a while before a familiar voice answered.

"Mom" I said "I want to come home"


Carlos' P.O.V

"Carlos?" I looked up as I saw my mom walking towards me. I quickly got up and ran to hug her, eyes burning as my tears begged to be let go "How are you holding up?" She asked, breaking the hug. I shook my head and she pulled me back in, and that's when the dam broke. My tears just kept coming, they wouldn't stop.

Unlike Kendall I told my mom about us. In fact my mom was the first person I came out to and she accepted me instantly. She had told me that you can't choose who you love and that she didn't love me any less, I was still her baby.

"Mom, I love him, I love him so much. I can't..." I sobbed. I couldn't finish the sentence.

"It's going to be ok" She said soothingly as she led me out of the Palm Woods "I got us an apartment near here"

"Mom, why wouldn't Mrs. Knight accept us? Why would she do this?"

"Mrs. Knight is a complicated woman" She sighed "Once when we were all in high school, her and me, she fell head over heels for this one guy. They spent all their time together. So it was no surprise to anyone when they made it official, they were dating. Soon after that we graduated high school and he asked her to marry him, and of course she said yes. But on the night of their wedding he stood her up. She was devastated. He had left her a letter saying he was sorry and that he couldn't go through with it. The reason he couldn't go through with it was because he had found out that he was gay. He knew he wouldn't be able to love her like she deserved, so he left. For months she wouldn't get out of bed, wouldn't eat or drink. She started to get deathly thin, but still she wouldn't eat or drink. So we had a conference, Logan's mom, James' mom and I. We decided to take care of her. It took us a while, but we tricked her into eating something. Soon after that she started eating by herself and became healthy again"

"Wow, I had no idea, but why did she start eating by herself?"

"Because, she found out she was pregnant with Kendall. She vowed she would never let her son turn out like his father"

"Oh" I said. Ok, I can understand why she would feel like that, but why would she separate us? Kendall is gay, so why would she want a girl to go through what she went through? Why not just let us be happy?

All these thoughts were floating around in my mind as we walked up to the hotel we were going to stay in for the night, before we went home in the morning.
