'I can't wait to go there today after school,' Carlos said feeling very excited, Kendall had been telling him all about everything he had seen and done in James' Mansion the day before. 'Oh Kendall, in your fairytale, you forgot to add that Prince James is very narcissistic,' Logan said. 'Um Logan, in English please,' Kendall said. 'Yeah and who the heck is Prince James?' Carlos asked.
'I mean that James Diamond is totally in love with himself and he's also friends with Camille Roberts,' Logan said. 'Oh this just keeps getting better,' Carlos said. 'Why are you still so excited?' Logan asked, 'don't you see, if we're friends with James, Camille will stop insulting us and we'll get some respect around here plus James can put in a word for me with Camille, she is so hot,' Carlos said smiling. 'She's a demon,' Logan said, 'yeah, a hot demon and I know you have a crush on her,' Carlos said, 'I do not -' Logan tried to say, 'yeah, yeah, yeah, say anything you want I'll just pretend I believe you,' Carlos said, taping Logan lightly on his shoulder.
It was true, Logan did have a crush on Camille but she would never like let alone date a guy like him and to top it all up, she had never treated him like a human being so he masked his attraction to her with repulsion, 'Talking about demons, look who the devil spit out of hell,' Kendall said. The other two boys turned to look at Camille Roberts as she walked into the class with her entourage right behind. She had slimmed down a bit due to the fever but she looked quite ravishing. .
'Okay, back to the things that actually matter,' Kendall said, 'Logan, are you coming with us to James house today?' 'No, I think I'll pass,' Logan said, 'so Carlos, that means its just the two of us,' Kendall said, 'Okay, I'll be at your house at four,' Carlos said. The rest of the day went on normally for the three boys although they didn't have any other classes together after the first period.
At launch time, James came to sit with them and so did Camille. 'James, why can't you come and sit with the populars instead of these two losers and that weirdo Logan?' Camille asked rolling her eyes. 'Because they happen to be my friends, real friends,' James said, 'whatever, but you're going to regret this, anyway see you later, she said as she stood up and left the table. 'Sorry about that, she can be nice,' James said apologetically, 'you guys are still coming over to my house this evening right?' 'absolutely,' Kendall and Carlos chorused. 'Guys, I think I just lost my appetite so I'll just be on my way now,' Logan said as he rushed out of the launch room.
After school, Logan was happy to return to the sanity of his home. He relaxed on his bed and thought about everything that had happened in School, James had turned down Camille's offer to come and sit with the populars. But Logan did not want to think of the possibilities of James just being a regular nice guy who could be a good friend. As far as James was around, he would always be threat to his friendship with Kendall. He kept on thinking till he drifted off into a very deep sleep.
The next day at school, Logan was rather surprised to see Carlos wearing a black plastic helmet. 'I am never taking this helmet off,' Carlos announced to Kendall and Logan, 'hockey is a very interesting game and it has inspired me to always wear a helmet for the rest of my life,' Carlos said. 'Let me guess, you guys played hockey all night long in James mansion,' Logan said, 'oh yeah!' Carlos and Kendall chorused, 'I know you're not into sports Logan but you have to play hockey, it is a very exciting game and James is an awesome teacher,' Kendall said. 'Anyway, you guys are still coming to my house for movie night tonight right?' Logan asked, 'I don't think I'll be able to come, my mom suggested family night tonight,' Carlos said. 'Kendall, you're coming right?' Logan asked, 'of course, nothing can stop me, I promise,' Kendall said, 'anyway, I gotta go, I have English class,' Carlos said as he left. 'I have Biology,' Kendall said, 'I have Maths,' Logan said as they all rushed off to their various classes when the bell rang.
'What do you mean you can't make it you promised!' Logan screamed over the phone.
'I know, this came up in short notice, I'm sorry,' Kendall said.
'You're blowing me off for some date with my archenenmy's goon, how did you imagine I would take it?'
'Okay, Jo is really nice when you get to know her and its a double date with James and Stephanie.'
He should have known James was behind this in one twisted way or another. 'Don't worry, Kendall, I completely understand.'
'So we're cool?'
'Totally.'
'You're the best Logan and I promise, I'll make it up to you on Saturday.'
'Bye.'
'Bye.'
Logan dropped his phone on his bed still angry, Kendall had never broken a promise before, and this was all James' fault!
'Honey, who were you yelling at?' Logan's mom, said as she entered his room. 'Nobody mom, now can I some privacy?' Logan replied. 'Logan its Friday night and you're sitting alone in your room, just tell me what's bugging you,' Logan's mom said as she sat on his bed. 'Movie night has been canceled because Carlos and his family are going bowling tonight and Kendall blew me off to go on a date with some girl.'
'I used to have friends that blew me off anytime, they had boyfriends and...' Logan was not at all in the mood to listen to one of his mom's stories and she seemed to have a lot of stories that corresponded with every single situation in life. Sometimes he felt as she was just lieing to make him feel better but he didn't say anything because he didn't want to hurt her feelings, so he always pretended as if he was listening.
'Logan, are you even listening to me?' His mom asked, 'of course I'm listening, friends that blow you off for guys, got it,' Logan replied. 'And don't forget, friendship is more important than a lot of things, even girls, I'm sure Kendall will realize that with time,' Logan's mom said as she left the room and shut the door.
His mom was right, friendship was much more important than a lot of things and he wasn't going to sit around and wait for Kendall to realize that or waorse still, keep ditching him for James, he had to do something and he knew exactly what he was going to do it.
