Chapter 5: Big Time Break Up

James and Carlos walked into the Palm Woods lobby after a hard days work of rehearsing their new song. James smiled brightly when he remembered how Gustavo said that he was proud of them. Gustavo may have hated them before but he thinks that the giant turd might actually like them.

"So, what do you want to do James?" Carlos asked, snapping the taller teen out of his thoughts. James frowned when he looked up and saw Stephanie standing in the front of the main desk.

"James what's wrong?" The latino teen asked worriedly. His dark brown eyes turned and stared over at the familiar girl who was talking to Mr. Bitters. "Oh, hey it's Stephanie. What's she doing back here? I thought she left to go start her movie directing career." Carlos asked to no one in particular.

The dark haired girl turned around and picked up her bags. She looked up and saw Carlos and James standing in the middle of the room while staring at her. She smiled brightly when she saw Carlos.

"Carlos!" Stephanie shouted she dropped her bags and ran over to the small latino teen and hugged him tightly.

Carlos smiled and hugged the girl back. "Hey Stephanie. What are you doing here?I haven't seen you in months." He said softly. Stephanie's eyes glowed as she continued to stare at the small teen.

"I convinced my parents to move me back here. I missed you so much Carlos." Stephanie whispered. James frowned. He really wanted to get away from Carlos and the girl that was ruining everything he had worked so hard for.

"You remember my best friend James right Stephanie?" Carlos asked with a small smile on his face. His eyes looked apologetic towards the tall tanned teen. The dark haired girl smiled at him and hugged him.

"It's good to see you again James. Where's umm, Logan and Kendall?" She asked. Her dark brown eyes staring into Carlos's midnight eyes.

"Their at the apartment. I'll take you." The small pop star suggested. Stephanie smiled, she picked up her bags and went to follow Carlos. Carlos looked back and stared at James who was still standing in the middle of the lobby.

"James, you coming?" He asked as they walked towards the elevator. James gave him a sad smile and shook his head. He walked over to the couch and sat down. He rested his elbows on his knees and his chin on the palm of his hands.

Carlos walked with Stephanie up to apartment 2J, he smiled when he heard Kendall and Logan bickering inside. They acted like a married couple sometimes.

The latino boy opened the door causing Kendall and Logan to turn their heads from the television and stare at him.

"Hey guys. You remember Stephanie?" He asked as he led the smaller girl inside. Stephanie smiled brightly and ran over to them and gave them a tight hug.

"It's great to see you Stephanie."Kendall said. Logan gave her a scared smile. He remembered the last time when this girl was here. He didn't like being the ghost bait. He shuddered at the memory.

"Where's James?" Logan asked, he was confused as to why James wasn't at Carlos's side. He always saw Carlos and James together.

"He's out in the lobby." Stephanie said. She smiled at them and then turned her attention back to Carlos. "I have to get going to my apartment. I'll see you later?" She asked. Carlos smiled and nodded back at her. The small girl hugged him before heading out the door with her bags.

Kendall and Logan looked at each other and then back at the small latino teen. "Did you know she was going to be here?' Logan asked curiously. He crossed his arms over his chest and stared at his small friend.

Carlos shook his head and closed the apartment door. "I had no idea she was going to be here. If I did I would've told you guys." He said. Logan nodded.

The wannabe pop star walked in with his head down. He was wearing his lucky "v" neck tshirt and his favorite pair of skinny jeans.

"James?You alright buddy?"The blonde haired teen asked. He hated seeing James upset. Whenever James was upset he made everyone else feel upset. James was always seen as a happy go lucky teen who was always smiling and laughing. The last time he saw the taller teen upset was when they were told that they wouldn't be going on tour by Griffin.

"Guys, can I talk to Carlos..alone?" James whispered quietly. Kendall and Logan nodded. They both walked out of the room without a word to each other.

The small latino teen looked up at James. He frowned when he saw James's disappointed face. "What's wrong James?" he asked.

"Are you still in love with her?" The pop star asked in a quiet tone making his small friend frown even more.

"You mean Stephanie? No, I'm with you remember?" Carlos said innocently. He really didn't want to fight with James. Not all that they have been through to make it this far.

"I read..you journal Carlos, you missed her. You miss her being with you. That's why you went out with me. It's because you wanted me to replace her. Well, I'm not going to continue this Carlos. You played me like I was sometime of violin." James cried. The last time that the taller teen had cried was when Kendall had broken his favorite hockey stick back in middle school.

"J-James..that's not true!" Carlos shouted. James shook his head. He looked defeated and utterly broken.

"I-I'm sorry Carlos..but..I can't do this. Now that she's back..I can't be with you." James whispered. He walked out of the apartment with his head down and tears streaming down his face.

Carlos clenched his fist that held a small bracelet that Stephanie had told him to give to James. Why didn't James give him a chance to explain?He loved the wannabe pop star so much. Now he ruined everything.

"Damn it!"The small latino teen shouted.

How was he going to fix this mess?
