I'm back! I've been trying to get more organized with...everything. Since I've gotten a little bit better, I was able to write up this chapter. XD
I decided to have some Logan/Camille in this chapter.
Hope you enjoy!
The boys looked down at the ground after Mr. Garcia had informed them of what was going on. "I'm really sorry. And that goes to everybody." He stole a glance at Jennifer and Joanna.
Carlos shrugged. "Papi. You shouldn't feel guilty for doing your job." He looked at Logan before continuing. "Besides, there were two guys that attacked us, not one. And they wore hoods so we couldn't see their faces. If anything, this could be a coincidence."
Logan nodded in agreement.
"We just want to make sure that you boys are safe," Sylvia said. "This man is sick, and he hates your dad."
Mr. Garcia couldn't help but feel a bit of fear for the boys. He was extremely close to his son, he loved Sylvia and Carlos more than anything. He began to love James, Kendall, and Logan as his sons as well. Kendall and Logan looked up to him as a father, seeing as how Kendall's father is dead and Logan's dad was always left unspoken.
Of course, Joanna and Jennifer were also scared. Joanna tried her hardest not to be mad at the Garcias, though, that was easier said than done. "So what do we do now?" she asked in a way that hid her conflicting emotions.
Mr. Garcia sighed. "There's not much that we can do. Elliot said he'd keep on the lookout. For now, all we can do is keep the boys, and ourselves, close."
The guys looked at each other. Were they just given instructions along the lines of "stick together"? That would be easy. It's something they do all the time anyway.
Martin's phone call ended. He couldn't believe Carlos and Logan had recovered so quickly. No one could.
Usually, an attacker wouldn't really care if his victims lived or not. But Martin, was definitely not a killer. Going to the community college was a mistake. Beating Carlos and insulting was a mistake. Stabbing the poor kid was definitely a mistake.
But that's what happens when you don't have a choice in the matter. When you owe an old "friend" a favor. When you get a call from your ten year old daughter crying. Crying because your old "friend" needed leverage. Crying because two strange men were pointing a gun to her head, ready to pull the trigger the second you say no. That's what happens when you've gone in too deep.
When he heard that Carlos and Logan were still alive, he quickly called his daughter, telling her that he loved her, and she should look the doors and windows and have her phone ready just in case someone tried to break in. Sure he sounded paranoid, but he couldn't risk it. He couldn't risk having his daughter be caught in the middle of all this just because of a little mistake he made a long time ago.
He jumped when he heard his phone ringing again. His heart was almost beating out of his chest when he saw the name in the caller ID. He tried to compose himself as he answered the call.
"T-tell me what you need. Just leave my daughter out of this."
Camille and Amirah had arrived. James and Carlos watched as Logan and Kendall began interacting with their girls. Camille was extremely happy that Logan had woken up. "I haven't been able to focus during rehearsals. I almost quit the part because I couldn't get my head on straight," she said to him. Her voice was barely over a whisper.
Logan blushed. He gave his signature smile. "Well, I'm here now, thankfully. The guys said you were worried sick. Are you okay?"
Leave it to Logan to care about others and forget about himself. "I'm fine," Camille answered while nodding her head for emphasis. "I'm just really glad that you're okay."
Logan's friends could tell that the conversation between the two was becoming a little personal. "Hey Logan," Carlos said, interrupting the conversation between him and Camille. "We're all gonna head to the cafeteria. James and Kendall are getting pretty hungry."
Amirah, still a bit clueless as to why the sudden interruption occurred, was practically dragged out by Kendall. "We'll explain later," he whispered to her.
Once they were the only ones in the room, Logan spoke up once again. "Can I ask you something Camille?"
"Anything Logan. what's up?"
Logan sighed, not knowing how to continue. "Wh-when I was in a coma...what was going through your mind?"
Camille was afraid of where this was going. "What do you mean?" she asked nervously.
Logan didn't want to bring up everything he "heard" while he was in a coma. What if he had imagined everything Camille had said? What if she didn't want to go back to being his girlfriend? He chose to be subtle. 'You ever have those times in your life when you make a decision, and you always have this feeling of regret?"
"Everyone has that feeling." Logan noticed that Camille had said that last part a little low. her eyes drifted to the floor as she said it, like she was ashamed. "What's this about?"
Logan played with his fingers as he thought of what to say next. "I made one a few months ago. To this day, I still hate myself for it."
"Logan. Spit it out. What's wrong?"
Logan looked Camille straight in the eye. "Camille. D-do you st-still love me?"
Once they made it to the cafeteria, Amirah released herself from Kendall's grasp. "So...what was that about?"
James rolled his eyes. "Couldn't you tell that Logan and Camille were having a moment?"
Amirah scoffed. "Duh. That's usually what boyfriends and girlfriends have."
Kendall sighed. "Amirah, can't you tell-wait. What'd you say?"
It was Amirah's turn to roll her eyes. "Logan and Camille. Boyfriend and girlfriend. What? You're friends with Logan and you didn't even know that they were together? What's up with that?"
Carlos leaned in closer to Amirah. "Who told you that they were together?" It was obvious that Logan and Camille still had feelings for each other, but they all knew that they hadn't been together since "the kiss".
Amirah hesitated in answering. "Camille." The boys' faces showed their amount of shock.
"What's she say?" Kendall asked.
"When I had first moved into the Palm Woods, I saw you guys and I asked Camille to tell me what you guys were like," Amirah began her story. "After that, she told me to stay away from Logan because he had a girlfriend. When I asked who, she pointed to herself...You mean they're not together?"
Hmmm Okay, so that's not a cliffhanger. Didn't really wanna make one right now. Have I gotten rusty?
Hope you liked it though. :D
You know what I like? Yup, you guessed it. Reviews! XD
