I honestly didn't want to write this chapter because I got a little emotional when I was writing it.
I made a mistake. This story will have 7 chapters, not 8. I miscounted the chapters. The last chapter will be uploaded (hopefully) tomorrow, then maybe another Lomille that I'm writing or a Pal. I'm still writing both so I don't know yet. I have to write 3 Lomille stories and 2 Pal stories. So what do you guys want? Lomille or Pal? I will eventually upload both but which one do you want first?
Chapter 6: A Thousand Good-Byes
Camille's POV
"What do you mean you're leaving the Palm Woods?!"
"With Logan and I broken up, I can't bear to see his face again. It's too much pain so I'm doing us both a favor. He's with Peggy and has clearly moved on so I should too." Jo and I were having some girl time at Palm Woods Park over ice cream. It might have been our last girl time ever. My flight was that night and I still had to finish packing the apartment.
"But what about me? Whatever happened to BFWSTFNMWH?"
"What?" What is this BFMNXSTEAWRDXYZ?
"Best Friends Who Stay Together Forever No Matter What Happens!"
"Jo, we will always be best friends, just on each side of the country."
She folded her arms, obviously annoyed. "Not helping"
"Sorry. Trust me, it's for his own good. If he doesn't see me and I don't see him, it's like nothing happened. I didn't move to LA and I never met him." Jo had a worried look her face before she embraced me with a giant hug.
"Don't forget about me"
"I promise you, I won't."
Logan's POV
"What do you mean she's leaving the Palm Woods?!" I couldn't believe my ears. Jo must be lying.
"That's what she told me. If you want her back, you have to act fast. Her flight leaves tonight."
"That doesn't give me much time."
"No it doesn't."
"Maybe you can sing her another song." Jo and I turned our heads and saw Katie.
"How am I going to write her a song in less than 4 hours?"
"You don't have to. Remember when you first sang her a song?" Oh I remembered that day, alright. It was a crazy day but all worth it in the end. "Well, all you have to do is pick another Big Time Rush song and, BOOM, you get the girl...again." I liked how she thought.
"How am I going to pick and practice a song before she leaves?"
"Beats me. You're the one who wants her back. Just don't blow it or you're for sure going to lose her again." With that, she left.
"That's great, just great. How am I going to pick a song?" An idea hit me. I turned to Jo. "She's your best friend! Help me!"
"Logan, first of all, calm down. Breathe. Take a deep breath. Good. Take another deep breath. In through your nose, out through your mouth. One more time. Breathe. Secondly, how did you pick a song last time?" Oh no. Not that. Like on cue, Kendall entered the room with a CD player, all of our EPs, a notepad, and a pen. I fell down on the couch. It was going to be a long afternoon.
Camille's POV
I spent the rest of the day packing things into boxes to go back to Connecticut. Let's see. Kitchen's all packed. Bedroom's done. Bathroom, check. Dining area's ready to go. All was left was my guitar and my new song. I liked how it turned out. I spent all night working on it and us leaving LA was my idea. After hearing my reason, Dad agreed and booked a flight back to Connecticut and called Bitters that we were leaving for good. I didn't want to face the guys so I never told them. Besides, I told Jo and I am pretty sure that she's going to pass on the news. We weren't going to leave for another hour so I brought out my guitar and new song and started playing.
I guess I should've known better
To believe I'm a lucky chain, oh
I lent my heart out forever
And finally learned each other's names
I tell myself, this time it's different
No goodbyes, cause eyes can't bear to see it
I'll never survive on one that's coming
If I stay, ooh no!
Just walk away! Oh, and don't look back
Cause if my heart breaks, it's gonna hurt so bad
You know I'm strong, but I can't take that
Before It's too late, oh, just walk away!
Ooh, just walk away!
(Walk, walk, walk away)
Aye aye, aye yeah
I really wish I could blame you
But I know that it's no one's fault
No, no, no, no
A Cinderella with no shoe
And a Prince that doesn't know he's lost
He says that her face is so familiar
Each goodbye with just the same old song
But this time I will not surrender!
'Cause I'm gone, ooh, yeah!
Just walk away! Ooh, and don't look back
Cause if my heart breaks, It's gonna hurt so bad
You know I'm strong, but I can't take that
Before It's too late, oh, just walk away!
Oh, just walk away!
(Walk, walk, walk away)
Oh, just walk away!
I've got to let it go, ooh
Start protecting my heart and soul
Cause I don't think I'll survive a goodbye again
Not again!
Just walk away! Oh, and don't look back
Cause if my heart breaks, it's gonna hurt so bad
You know I'm strong, but I can't take that
Before it's too late, before It's too late!
Oh, just walk away!
Walk away, walk away, yeah!
(Walk, walk, walk away!)
Walk away, walk away, all right
(Walk away, walk, walk away)
Walk away, walk away
(Walk, walk, walk away!)
Walk away, walk away, oh, ooh
As my song ended, Dad came in and told me to start packing the moving truck. I sighed, put my guitar down in it's case and started getting a box from the kitchen.
After everything was packed and ready to go, Dad turned to me. "Do you really want to go through with this?"
"Yes, Dad. He has moved on and I should too. Besides, what am I going to do if I stay? I haven't booked an audition in weeks and I think it's time for me to walk away."
"Like in your new song?"
I sighed. "Yes, like in my new song." I didn't want to leave but I had no choice. Good-bye California. Good-bye Palm Woods. Good-bye Jo. Good-bye Big Time Rush. Good-bye Logan. I locked the door, gave my key to Bitters, and left the Palm Woods, never to step foot on it again.
Sob! Will Logan ever get to Camille before she leaves? Who knows the song now?!
