I'll post the next one as soon as i can. Enjoy~!~


Katie

It's been a few months since the party. Things are going really great. I'm over James; did that really quickly by the way. I love Brody and he loves me, that is all that matters. Anyways, James is doing his own thing. He actually has a real girlfriend, Adrianna I think. Not some girl he brings around for events, but a real girlfriend. I'm happy for him, really I am.

We haven't spoken since that night at the pool. He's too 'Busy' to talk and I'm 'Always with Brody'. Kendall seems to be okay with him now; he's not ignoring him or being mean. He's actually being nice to James. Of course he doesn't know about the pool, but hey, I can't tell him everything. Speaking of telling Kendall things, he asked me about Brody and I, if we did anything. I told him no, but we have, since the night of the party. He would KILL the both of us if he ever found out.


James

It's been a few moths since Carlos' birthday party. Things are pretty sucky now that Katie and I aren't speaking. It's not that I don't want to talk to her, 'cause I do, but it's that she hasn't spoken to me. Quite frankly, I don't blame her. To tell you the truth, I lied to her. I do like her and I definitely felt something when we kissed, but I didn't want to make her life complicating. I should have told her though, 'cause now she's with Brody and he's cheating on her and I can't tell her 'cause it'll break her heart if I do.

I'm completely lost on what to do about Katie. She seems like she has moved on. I even got some girlfriend to take my mind off of her. I feel bad sometimes though, cause I use her just for sex, but she hasn't complained.


Katie

It's October and there's a BIG party that Gustavo is throwing for the band, masquerade party to be exact. You have to wear a costume and mask and can't take it off until midnight.


James

Tonight is that big mask party thing that Gustavo's throwing. Yeay. I walk out of my room and wait in the living room. About 15 minutes later Katie comes out of her room looking gorgeous in her dress and mask. Brody walked in a few minutes later. Carlos is bringing this girl he's been dating for a few weeks now, Katy is her name, I think. She's pretty, really nice and perfect for Carlos. When everyone was ready we went to the limo.

After a few hours at the party it was starting to get boring. You didn't know who you were talking to, what the people you know are wearing, and you can't tell if a girl is hot because of all these masks.

I spot Katie and walk over to talk to her.

"Hey, I need to talk to you for a minute." She turned around and smiled. I led the way to a quiet hallway.

"I know you don't want to hear this but, I love you Katie. I lied about the kiss that night at the pool, and I've been lying to myself since then. I didn't want to tell you because you're with Brody and I-" She cut me off.


Katie

The night was spent dancing, drinking, and having fun. Brody took me home a little early so we could go to his place for a little.

"So, what do you wanna do?" He said, sitting on the edge of the bed. His words were slurred a little, but hey, so were mine.

"I have an idea." I sat on his lap, straddling him, and kissed him. The kiss got hot very fast. My dress was being unzipped and he was kissing my neck while I played with his tie. As his kisses began to go lower, I started to take off his clothes. I started with that tie I was having so much fun with, loosening it and taking it off. Next was his shirt. I fumbled with the buttons, clumsily undoing them one at a time. By the time his shirt was unbuttoned, I was in my bra and underwear.

"Now that's just not fare. I'm in my undies, and you still have your shirt AND pants on." I sighed. He laughed and I giggled.

"I'm not complaining. I like the view." I went to kiss him again. A few minutes later I heard footsteps outside his door.

"Hey, is anyone else here?" He laughed.

"No." I shrugged it off and continued the kissing. I was on his lap again, but this time he just had his pants on. His hands were on my lower back, mine in his hair, completely lost in the moment.

We both fell asleep afterwards and I didn't wake up until almost 5.

"Hey, babe wake up." he moved around a little and mumbled.

"What?"

"I have to go. It's almost 5. Kendall is probably going crazy." I stopped when I realized he was back to sleep.

I grabbed my things, put my dress on, and went back to 2J. I slowly opened the door hoping no one was up, and surprisingly there wasn't anybody up yelling at me or asking where I've been for the last 3 hours. I decided to not push my luck and walked to my room to sleep.

I woke up around 9 to find James in the living room, like every other morning. "Morning." I sat on the couch trying to remember the party. God my head hurts.

"Hey." He whispered. I looked at him funny. He looked hurt.

"Is something wrong?" He tilted his head to look at me, confused.

"You don't remember?" I reciprocated the confused look and he continued. "Of course you don't." He got up, slowly walking to his room.

"What you mean? What am I supposed to remember?"

"Forget it Katie. Just forget it. You didn't have a problem with forgetting until now, so why start?" We were in his room now.

"Please, tell me." He kept his back turned to me and waited a few seconds before responding.

"Last night, I told you how I felt." He paused. It hit me, the conversation we had.

FLASHBACK

"I know you don't want to hear this but, I love you Katie. I lied about the kiss that night at the pool, and I've been lying to myself since then. I didn't want to tell you because you're with Brody and I-" I cut him off.

"Stop. We are not doing this, you're not doing this, not now." I paused for a second then continued. "James, I spent the last few months thinking to myself how crazy I must have been to feel something when we kissed when you felt nothing. Wondering what was so wrong with me that you didn't like me. I've been driving myself crazy because of that one thing you said to me. I put myself out there, and you shot me down without giving me a chance. So don't stand there saying you made a mistake or that you didn't want to make my life complicated, because you did James. You did make my life complicating, and you sure as hell made a mistake. I'm done with your games James. I can't just sit here and wait for you to decide if you love me or not when I have a boyfriend who loves me and you have a girlfriend."

"Brody doesn't love you." I looked at him confused.

"What?" I whispered.

"Nothing."

"What do you mean he doesn't love me? Are you that desperate that you would say something like that? I can't believe you James." I walked off.

James continued, not knowing I now remember all of it. "You said you were done with me."

"James I-" He cut me off.

"Don't. Last night was enough. I don't need to hear it again." He waited a while before continuing. "Can I ask you to do something?"

"Sure, anything."

"You have to be completely honest though, okay?" I was lost.

"Okay. What is it?"


James

I don't know what came over me when I asked her to do this. I shouldn't have asked her, but I needed to know the truth.

"Can I kiss you?" I waited for her reaction, expecting her to yell at me.

"What?" She whispered.

"To see if those feelings are still there, please?" She looked like she was unsure of what to say.

"James, I can't."

"Why not?"

"Because I have a boyfriend and you have a girlfriend."

"Please, I don't even like her. And Brody, he doesn't matter."

"No I can't, James. And Brody does matter. I love him."

"Do you really?" She nodded. "Then prove it."

"No, I don't need to prove myself to you of all people. And don't use my words."

She was about to leave when I grabbed her arm, swinging her around to face me. I pressed my lips to hers and it was amazing, for the short length of the kiss. She was kissing me back, but barely. When I pulled away I saw tears in her eyes, and her bottom lip was trembling.

"Are you happy?" Tears were rolling down her face and we just stood there.

"Katie-"

"You got what you wanted."

"But Katie, I didn't want this to happen."

"What did you want James? For me to run into your arms telling you 'I love you'? I just started to get over you, and you choose now to tell me you love me. And I'm standing here, having feelings for you. God what is wrong with me?" She whispered the last part.

"What?" I stared at her for about a minute then she started to step forward.

She crushed her lips to mine. I was taken aback. As soon as my brain was working again, I kissed her back, putting all my love into it. It was the most passionate kiss I've ever had. I stumbled backwards to my bed, falling back against it with Katie on top of me.


Katie.

I can't believe I had sex with James.

We stayed in his bed for a while. "Where is everyone?"

"They went out to eat."

"Oh." It's weird they would go out without James and I.

"Katie?"

"Yeah?"

"What do we do now?" That was a good question. Too bad I didn't know the answer.
