Welcome to the final chapter of this awesome Fic!
Logan had terrible nightmares that night with each leading to the next. There was one thing that always happened in all his nightmares, he always ended up expelled and James always stood by laughing at him.
The next morning, Logan was totally worn out due to the restlessness of the previous night. His mother tried to find out what was wrong with him but he didn't give her any clues. He rushed off to School after a quick breakfast, he was rather unsure of what he was going to do when he got to School. Surprisingly enough the first person Logan spotted in School was James, so he quickly walked up to him.
'James about what happened yesterday -' Logan tried to say.
'Yeah, about that, I've been doing a lot of thinking and I'm going to go to the Principal's office after my first class today and tell him that I did it,' James said, cutting Logan short.
'But you can't take the blame, I mean, their going to kick you out of School!'
'Well I'm certain that they won't, you need a flawless record much more than I do and I'm probably going to drop out of School and become a Pop Star.'
'I know but still -'
'Don't worry about me Logan, like I said, I did a lot of thinking and I know exactly what I'm doing,' James said and walked away.
Logan felt utterly speechless, he knew that he was supposed to be happy that James was so willing to take the blame. He would not have to worry about getting exelled, but somehow he felt guilty and he terribly needed someone to talk to. He was so relieved when he heard Kendall and Carlos shout his name.
'What's been happening to you, you've been like invisible since yesterdday,' Kendall said.
'I have to tell you guys something,' Logan said suddenly whispering.
'Sure, but why are you whispering?' Carlos asked.
'I wrecked the Chemistry Lab,' Logan said.
'You what?' Kendall and Carlos asked at the same time.
'It was an acccident ... James came in and told me about my date with Camille and I was holding chemicals and there was an explosion and -'Logan trailed off.
'Wait let me get this straight, you have a date with Camille?' Carlos asked in astonishment.
'That's not the point, the point is that James wants to take the blame and I feel guilty and I don't know what to do,' Logan said.
'Okay so, you feel terrible about James taking the blame, why don't you take the blame?' Kendall asked.
'Well because ... I ... I don't know, its really complicated,' Logan said as he heard the bell ring for first period.
'It might be complicated but its still your choice so just do whatever you feel is right and I trust that you'll make the right choice coz you're smart that way,' Kendall said.
'Thanks Kendall, even if that's not exactly what I wanted to hear,' Logan said.
'I still can't believe you have a date with Camille,' Carlos said.
'Anyway, I gotta go,' Kendall said, walking away. Logan and Carlos had their first class, which was English, together. Throughout the class, Logan kept on brooding about what Kendall had said and finally he made up his mind, he would own up before James did.
But at the end of the class, Logan felt quite daunted, he had to re-convince himself to do what he had to do. When he got to the Principal's office, James was already there but that still didn't stop him from saying what he had come to say.
'Principal Rocque, I wrecked the Chemistry Lab yesterday and James is just trying to cover for me.'
'No, Logan is here to cover for me.'
'No, James is here to cover for me.'
'No -'
'SILENCE!' The Principal bellowed, 'since nobody is really ready to own up, both of you DOGS get your parents here at four o'clock sharp this evening!'
'At four o'clock sharp, Logan and his mom were seated in the principal's office, there was a deafening silence as they patiently awaited the arrival of James and his mom. It had not at all been easy for Logan to tell his mom about the appointment in the Principal's office but when he eventually did, she completely understood and didn't yell at him at all. His father was too busy to come to the Principal's office, so only his mother came.
Finally, James and his mom arrived, the two boys were told to wait outside while the Principal spoke to their moms. 'James I'm sorry, about everything,' Logan said, 'its not entirely your fault, If I hadn't told you about Camille, maybe you wouldn't have spilled the chemicals,' James said.
'No, its not just that, its everythibg, since you arrived here, I've been horrible to you but yet you still tried ti take the blame for me, why?
'Well its because, back in New york, I had lots of friends, we all used to go parties together and get in trouble and do all sorts of crazy and fun stuff together, but they were not real friends. Here in Minnesota, I've met real friends, Kendall and Carlos and if I want to be their friend, I have to be yours first. Plus, when you and Camille start dating, you'll practically become family and family has to watch out for family,' James said.
'I guess I never saw things like that, so are we cool?' Logan asked, stretching out his hand to shake James' hand.
'Totally,' James said shaking Logan's hand.
Soon enough, the door to the Principal's office opened as the two moms walked out. 'Both of you better be thankful to Principal Rocque, neither of you is getting expelled,' Logan's mom said. 'But before you start celebrating, you're both getting detension for the rest of the semester,' James' mom said.
'I can live with that,' James said.
'I can learn to live with that,' Logan said.
'Come on Logan, let's go home,' Logan's mom said.
'Don't worry mom, I'll come home later,' Logan said.
'Fine, but make sure you come home before your father does,' Logan's mom said, walking away.
'Mom, you don't have to stick around, I can come home on my own,' James said.
'Alright, just make sure you don't stay out too late,' James said as she left.
'So what do we do now?' Logan asked.
'Why don't we just walk ... and talk,' James said.
'So when's my date with Camille?' Logan asked.
'Why don't we go over to her house and find out,' James said.
'Yeah, we should and I think she would be pleasantly surprised,' Logan said.
