The Perfect Gift: Jagan
A Month Before Christmas
James Diamond never got jealous, never. However, when he noticed that Logan stopped paying attention to him and the others, and more attention to Camille, the pretty boy knew that he had to create a rift between Camille and Logan. After all Logan was his best friend, not hers. He doubted if Logan even liked the annoying actress, because whenever James walked by, Logan forced a smile while he talked to Camille. Heck, he wondered if anyone really liked the insane actress, because she was rash, abrasive and overall an unpleasant person to be around.
It didn't stop until Camille asked James to help her with her lines. He agreed, hoping that this wouldn't hurt because she was known for diving into a part with her whole being. All those slaps to Logan and Kendall were real and from what he heard from his friends, they really hurt. But when the script called for a kiss, James reluctantly agreed, and to his surprise, Camille kissed him back. As a result, it really hurt James to know that he had hurt Logan in the worst way possible. He didn't lose just a friend, he lost his best friend, but the pain he felt made him feel lower than low.
Even though James thought these feelings were just about losing his best friend, somewhere deep down inside the recesses of his mind, James knew that he was in love with Logan. These feelings didn't start to make sense until Christmas morning.
Christmas Morning
"Here you go James. I hope you like it." Logan said smiling at the boy sitting on the floor, surrounded by Cuda products given to him by everyone else but Logan. He tore open the paper, expecting a Cuda hairspray bottle but what he got instead shocked him. Logan bought another pair of Buster Clyde shoes. Logan still blamed James for causing him to ruin the shoes, but he knew that James just really wanted a pair, so he bought them for him.
"Logan! These must have cost a fortune! I can't accept these!" James said staring at the shoes with wide eyes. James knew that the cheapest pair available was around 2,000$ and he decided that they weren't worth it.
"Don't worry James. I knew you really wanted a pair, so I used the money I made from tutoring the Palmwoods kids to pay for them. Merry Christmas." James couldn't believe that Logan remembered, it had been almost 6 months since the incident.
That's when it hit James, all the seemingly small things that Logan did made sense. Doing their homework for Rocktober, giving up the swagger app, and everything else that Logan did, James couldn't believe that he ignored the signs for so long.
James decided that it was time to do something about his feelings. So, he waited until Logan was alone to make his move. The other teen was watching a horror movie; James assumed it was the same movie he received as a present from Carlos earlier in the day. So he sat next to Logan, whose attention was focused on the movie.
"Hey." James said when he noticed Logan didn't acknowledge his presence. However he didn't expect Logan to flip out, but he laughed when Logan landed on the floor with a thud.
"Sorry. I didn't mean to scare you, but I thought you would have at least seen me sit down." James said offering Logan a hand. Once Logan was back on the bright orange couch, James took a deep breath and blurted it out.
"I like you."
"I like you too James. We are best friends after all." Logan said while his eyes were focused on the television. The protagonist was running from a buff guy with a huge bloody blade and a metal pyramid on his head. Realizing that what he said didn't cut it, James did something rash. He kissed Logan.
"James?" Logan asked after he pulled away from the beautiful boy. He didn't want James' pity, not today of all days.
"I like you, Logan. I always have." Logan couldn't believe what he had heard, James, his crush of almost a year liked him back. He always thought that he came on to strong, but when James continued to act like nothing happened, Logan gave up on the idea. If he couldn't be with James, then that would be okay so long as James was happy.
"James, this is the best Christmas present ever." Logan said hugging James so tightly that the other teen had a hard time breathing.
A/N: Sorry this is so short. I don't really like this pairing but I gave it my best shot. Please review and Thank you! I hope you all had a great holiday season.
Have an awesome weekend!
