Chapter 6: Call Me Maybe
"So Logan tells me you have a date this Friday," Dak said as he looked down at James. James nodded his head as he placed his hands on Dak's hips. They were alone in James' apartment together.
"Yes I do," James said pressing his lips to Dak's neck. Dak's breath hitched in his throat. James ground his hips up into Dak's. Dak gasped at the sudden movement, and a small moan escaped his lips.
"Should we still be doing this?" Dak asked as he ground his hips down into James' hips.
"I'm still technically single," James said.
"I-I know that," Dak said looking at James. He smiled and brought their lips together in a kiss. James grinned into the kiss and moved his lips perfectly with Dak's. They sat there kissing for awhile until the need for air became too great. Dak rested his head on James' shoulder as he caught his breath and moved his hips with James' hips.
"We had a deal to help one another relieve stress as long as we were both single," James said, "just friends having sex no strings attached," he said.
"I know that, but what about this guy you're seeing what if he finds out about this?" Dak asked trying to be rational.
"He doesn't run in our social circle," James said, "he's Kendall's friend," he added.
"Really?" Dak asked, "Yo-you two must've re-really hi-hit it off then," Dak stammered the pleasure becoming too much for him.
"Yeah, there's just something about him," James said.
"So this is it then?" Dak asked as he started to place light kisses along James' neck.
"Yeah, I think so," James said, "as long as things go well on my date," he said.
"Don't be like that, you'll do fine," Dak said, "now I think we're wearing to many clothes," he said.
"I think you're right," James said. He pushed Dak off of him and down onto the couch. He quickly started to undress Dak and prepared the younger brunette.
"Do you have a condom?" Dak asked.
"Always," James said pulling one out of his pants pocket.
"So this is it then," Dak said looking up at James as he stripped himself of his own clothing.
"Yeah," James said nodding his head, "this is the last time we're doing this," he said.
"Unless of course your date tanks and in that case you know my number," Dak said grinning wickedly.
"Oh ha, ha, Zevon," James said as he grabbed the condom and opened it.
"I am just saying," Dak said grabbing the condom from James and slipping it on the older brunette. James reached over to his pants and pulled out a small bottle of lube and poured some onto his hand and lubed himself up. "Come on Jamie make this one good," Dak teased as James lined himself up with Dak's hole.
"Oh, so all these other times I've sucked?" James asked.
"Yeah you were horri-ah-ble," Dak gasped as James pushed in with one rough thrust. "I was teasing," he added. James grinned and started to thrust slowly just to drive Dak crazy. James knew Dak loved it fast and rough. "James," Dak whined.
"What Dak?" James asked.
"Harder," Dak said.
"As you wish," James said. He picked up the pace and started to pound into the brunette below him. Dak started to moan and gasp. James reached in between them and grabbed Dak's cock and started to jerk him off as well.
"Is this good for you Dak?" James asked teasingly. Dak just nodded his head unable to speak. James double his efforts to get Dak off and several jab to his prostate and a few strokes of his cock was all Dak could take. He came with a cry covering James' hand with his come. James came a few thrusts later filling the condom. Dak collapsed on top of James as the last waves of his orgasm left him.
"Wow." was all Dak could say.
"I know," James said, "I'm amazing," he said conceitedly.
"Ass," Dak said shaking his head.
"Ready for round two?" James asked standing up. Dak clung to James as he started walking with Dak in his arms.
"Where are we going?" Dak asked.
"Bedroom and then the shower," James said simply, "I figure if this is our last time we're going all out," he said.
"You're going to be the death of me if your date doesn't go well," Dak said as James kicked his bedroom door open.
"So you're hoping the date goes well and we don't do this anymore?" James asked.
"I guess, I mean I need to get out and start dating myself," Dak said. James smiled and dropped Dak onto the bed.
"Well don't worry about that now," James said shaking his head, "you've got something more important to take care of," he said as he took his used condom off and grabbed a new one from his bedside table.
-Better Than I Know Myself-
Carlos paced back and forth in his living room. Kendall and Camille were sitting on the couch watching him. They were waiting for him to freak out again. He had been so calm all day. He had only really started pacing an hour ago. He had yet to have an outburst. That's what Camille and Kendall were really waiting for. They knew Carlos so well and he was bound to start yelling soon.
"Do you think he's ok?" Camille whispered to Kendall.
"I am not sure, and I've known him almost his whole life," Kendall said. Camille laughed at that.
"I think he's freaking out on the inside," Camille said.
"Probably, I mean he's only had a crush on James since he first heard them on the radio," Kendall said.
"You two are aware that I can hear you right?" Carlos asked as he stopped pacing to look at his two friends.
"Well, we are now," Kendall said.
"You are horrible," Carlos said glaring at Kendall.
"Will you relax," Kendall asked as he stood up, "if he wasn't interested would he have asked you out?" he asked as he walked over to him.
"I know that, but I can't help it," Carlos said.
"Carlos relax," Camille said, "stressing won't do you any good," she said as she too stood up and joined the other two.
"She's right," Kendall said placing a hand on Carlos' shoulder.
"I know, but he's James Diamond," Carlos said.
"Yeah, but he's still just a person," Kendall said.
"I guess, but he's famous," Carlos said.
"He's still a human being," Camille said.
"I know, but I can't help but freak out," Carlos said.
"There's nothing to freak out about," Kendall said, "you are going to go on the date and have a great time with James. I don't know him so I can't say if he's a great guy, but if he hurts you I will mess him up," he said.
"Like you could take on someone like James," Carlos said.
"Carlos, if he hurts you I'll hurt him," Kendall said, "I mean it," he added.
"You'd never hurt a fly," Carlos said.
"Who do you think beat the crap out of Johnny Marcos when we were in seventh grade after he broke your heart?" Kendall asked.
"That was you?" Carlos asked shocked.
"Yes and Marty Jacobs broke your arm after he pushed you off the monkey bars in third grade after you told him you liked him," Kendall said.
"Ok I get it you beat up a lot of people that hurt me," Carlos said laughing.
"I'd do it again in a heartbeat, Carlos you are my brother," Kendall said.
"Thanks Kendall," Carlos said smiling at his friend.
-Better Than I Know Myself-
James was pacing around his apartment. He had his date in a few hours. He didn't know what he was going to wear, and he was nervous as hell. There was something about Carlos. He had texted Logan and Dak and asked them both to come over but they were taking too long. James turned on his heel as there was a knock at his door. He walked over to it and opened it. He came face to face with Logan and Dak.
"About goddamn time," James said stepping aside.
"What's got you so worked up?" Dak asked.
"Yeah it's just a date," Logan said as they both walked into the apartment.
"It's not just a date," James said shaking his head, "there's just something about Carlos," he said a dreamy look on his face.
"Calm down lover boy," Dak said, "let's go see what you got to wear," he said dragging James from the living room and into his bedroom. Logan followed behind them. Logan and Dak walked over James' closet and grabbed some clothes and tossed them to James.
"Where are you taking him?" Logan asked.
"Dinner and a movie," James said.
"That'll work," Dak said looking at the clothes in James' hands.
"Yes, now go change," Logan said pushing James in the direction of the bathroom. James headed into the bathroom and changed. He had a black graphic t-shit and a pair of skinny jeans that hugged all the right places. He walked into his bedroom and grabbed a pair of socks and his favorite black vans. He walked out to the living room where Logan and Dak were sitting on the couch.
"How do I look?" James asked.
"Hot," Logan said, "Carlos is gonna love it," he said.
"I totally agree with Logan," Dak said nodding his head.
"I don't know why I'm so nervous," James said as he walked over to the couch and sat down next to Logan. He had not been nervous for a date since his first date in high school which didn't even turn out so good. He had been stood up by the girl and then almost picked up by some random old guy. That night was one James didn't want to relive.
"You're nervous because you don't want to mess up," Logan said, "I mean you really seem to like him," he said.
"I do and that's crazy because we only just met the other day," James said.
"Maybe he's the one for you," Logan said, "I mean they say when you fall in love you just know," he said.
"That's crazy," James said looking at Logan. "and you're a fool for believing in love when you have a kid on the way with a complete stranger," he said.
"Hey, we've decided to share custody after the kids born and hopefully by that time we'll be friends," Logan said.
"Yeah you want to be friends," James said.
"Ok, I will admit he's hot, but he's not into me that way," Logan said shaking his head.
"So James what time do you have to pick him up?" Dak asked looking at his watch.
"Six," James said.
"It's five thirty now," Dak said.
"Shit," James said. He jumped up and ran from his apartment only to run back to get his keys, wallet, and cell phone.
-Better Than I Know Myself-
Carlos was sitting on the couch with Kendall and Camille. They had managed to calm the Latino down enough to get him to sit down.
"Deep breaths," Kendall said looking at Carlos.
"It's almost six," Carlos said.
"He'll be here," Camille said placing a hand on Carlos' arm. Carlos nodded his head and took a deep breath as there was a knock at the door. Carlos jumped and looked to the door. The knock came again.
"Answer it," Kendall hissed. Carlos stood up and walked over to the door and opened it. He saw James standing there.
"Hi," Carlos said.
"Hey," James said smiling.
"Don't stay out too late Carlos," Kendall called from the couch.
"Yeah or you'll be in big trouble mister," Camille chimed in. Carlos whipped around to look at his two best friends who were now sitting side by side on the couch.
"They grow up so fast don't they?" Kendall asked Camille.
"Will you two shut it," Carlos said glaring at them. Kendall and Camille laughed.
"Have fun," Camille said.
"But not too much fun," Kendall said.
"I'm leaving," Carlos said stepping out of the apartment. "I am so sorry about them," he said to James.
"Logan and Dak would've done the same thing to me," James said, "only with more sexual innuendos," he added. Carlos laughed and nodded his head. The door behind him opened.
"Carlos you forgot your keys and your phone," Kendall said holding out said items to Carlos. Carlos blushed and grabbed them. "Sorry but I thought you might need them," Kendall said.
"Thanks man," Carlos said.
"No problem," Kendall said. He retreated into the apartment and shut the door. Carlos smiled and turned to face James again.
"Shall we go?" James asked. Carlos nodded his head and he followed James to the elevator.
"So what are we doing?" Carlos asked.
"Just dinner and a movie," James said, "I know this great place where there is no paparazzi so we should be alone," he said.
"What kind of food is it?" Carlos asked.
"It's this nice little Italian place it that ok," James asked. Carlos blushed and nodded his head. Once they reached outside James led Carlos over to his car.
-Better Than I Know Myself-
Kendall and Camille were sitting together on the couch. Carlos had gone and they were excited for their friend, but now they had to wait until he got back from his date to hear about it.
"I am bored," Camille announced.
"Me too," Kendall said.
"What do you want to do?" Camille asked looking at Kendall. Kendall shrugged as there was a knock at the door. Kendall looked at Camille and stood up. He walked over to the door and opened it and saw Logan standing there.
"Logan," Kendall said, "what are you doing here?" he asked.
"I need to talk to you," Logan said, "I realized I don't have your cell number," he said.
"Oh," Kendall said, "come in," he said stepping aside. Logan walked in.
"Look I am sorry about this, but Kelly wants us out in public together as soon as we can be," Logan said.
"What?" Kendall asked.
"The sooner we're out in public the better," Logan said, "her words not mine," he added quickly putting his hands up.
"I think I'll head home," Camille said getting Kendall's attention.
"Ok I'll call you when Carlos gets back," Kendall said walking over to Camille and kissing her on the cheek. Camille left and Kendall turned back to Logan.
"Sorry abut just coming over unannounced," Logan said, "I should've gotten your number last time," he said.
"Here give me your phone," Kendall said holding his hand out. Logan gave Kendall his phone. Kendall quickly put his number in Logan's phone and then texted himself. He then handed Logan's phone back to the brunette as his phone went off. "There you have mine and now I have yours," Kendall said.
"Thanks," Logan said.
"No problem," Kendall said walking over to the couch with Logan behind him. Kendall sat down and Logan sat down beside him. "So what do I have to do?" Kendall asked.
"Kelly thinks it's best we go to this party tomorrow night," Logan said.
"Tomorrow night?" Kendall asked.
"Yeah, she things the sooner we go out as couple the more people will believe that we're an actual couple and that I knocked you up and everything," Logan said, "you don't have to but Kelly wanted me to at least talk to you," he said quickly.
"Um I don't know what to say," Kendall said honestly. He had agreed to fake date Logan, but he wasn't so sure why. He knew that this wasn't going to be easy, but he had thought he would have some time to prepare for this.
"If it's too soon for you we can wait a bit, but Kelly wants us out in public as soon as possible," Logan said.
"I'll do it," Kendall said
"You will?" Logan asked shocked, "it's not to soon for this. I mean I don't want to thrust you into the Hollywood spot light," he said.
"We don't have a choice now do we?" Kendall asked looking down at his stomach.
"I guess we don't," Logan said. He looked at Kendall's stomach as well. It was still flat and not showing any signs but it would be soon, or Logan hoped. "So you're like two months along right?" he asked. Kendall nodded his head.
"Wow this is still so new to me," Logan said.
"Me too," Kendall said.
"I guess we're in this together," Logan said looking up at the blonde. Kendall nodded his head.
-Better Than I Know Myself-
Carlos and James were sitting in a booth in the back of a small Italian restaurant. They had ordered and were waiting on their food to be served.
"So Carlos," James said.
"Yes," Carlos said.
"Why did you come to Hollywood?" James asked.
"Acting," Carlos said, "I really want to be a great actor and not for the fame it's just something I love to do," he said.
"You don't want fame?" James asked arching an eyebrow at Carlos.
"No I want fame but that's not the only reason I want to be an actor," Carlos said blushing. James laughed at that.
"I came to Hollywood seeking fame with Logan," James said, "we got what we wanted and I hope you can get what you want," he said.
"Thanks," Carlos said blushing again. Their food arrived and the waitress left them alone. They started to eat in silence. "So, what's it like?" Carlos asked.
"What's what like?" James asked.
"Being famous," Carlos said.
"It's fun at times but others it's stressful," James said, "I mean there's a lack of privacy. I am really surprised no one here's recognized me or at least come up for an autograph or picture," he said.
"I'd like an autograph," Carlos teased. James laughed and Carlos did as well. They continued to eat and just talk about anything that came to mind. They talked about Carlos' dreams and his upcoming role. They talked about James' job and Big Time Rush. They steered clear of talking about Kendall and Logan though. This was about them not Kendall and Logan. Once they finished eating James paid the bill and they left. They arrived at the Theater several minutes later. James dragged Carlos to the line and they decided on a movie. They almost made it to the front when James was spotted.
"Oh my god you're James Diamond from Big Time Rush," a girl said. James looked at Carlos apologetically.
"I'll just get our tickets," Carlos said. He had been waiting all night for this to happen. He was just surprised it took so long. Carlos bought two tickets for him and James. He walked over to James and waited for the fan girls to leave. After they left James turned to Carlos.
"I am so sorry about that, people don't care that I am on a date or anything," James said.
"It's ok and when my acting career takes off you'll have to put up with it when you're pushed aside for me," Carlos said handing James his ticket and walking into the theater. James followed Carlos inside.
"Wow no one's ever said that to me before," James said, "and you think we'll be together when your career takes off?" he asked.
"A guy can dream can't he?" Carlos asked. James smiled and nodded his head. They went over to the concession stand and got a medium popcorn to share and two sodas. After that they went to their theater and found their seats.
"I hear this movie is ok," James said.
"Yeah, Kendall's saw it and he said it wasn't the best, but that only made me want to see it," Carlos said. The movie started and the two sat in silence. They watched the movie for awhile but they both quickly lost interest in the cheesy plot.
"Why don't they ever make a movie about what happens after the big kiss?" James asked shaking his head as the two leads on the screen "broke up" but were going to get back together before the movie ended.
"They do it's called porn," Carlos said quietly. James who had been taking a sip of his drink choked. Carlos laughed and turned to James. "It's true," he said.
"I know," James said, "I just didn't expect you to say that," he said.
"I'm an honest guy get used to it pretty boy," Carlos said. He didn't know where all his confidence was coming from this last hour, but as the date progressed he slowly came out of his shell more.
"Pretty boy?" James asked.
"You heard me," Carlos said. James laughed and leaned closer to Carlos.
"You're one of a kind you know that," James said.
"Yeah I'm a real catch," Carlos said turning to James. James smiled and looked at Carlos. "You can put your arm around me if you want, I don't bite, unless you want it," he said grinning. James chuckled and placed his arm around Carlos. The watched the movie in silence.
-Better Than I Know Myself-
James walked Carlos to the door of his apartment. They were both laughing and they didn't want this night to end. They stopped outside of Carlos' apartment.
"I had a great time," Carlos said.
"Me too," James said.
"I am sorry about your foot though, I was aiming for that bit-girl who couldn't take a hint," Carlos said blushing.
"You need to work on your aim then," James said laughing.
"Yeah I'll do that," Carlos said.
"Well good night," James said.
"Yeah good night," Carlos said. James turned to leave. He started down the hall. "Wait," Carlos said. He ran down the hall to James. "Here," he pulled a pen from his pocket and grabbed James' hand. "Call me maybe, if you wanna do this again," he said as he wrote his number down for James.
"Ok I will," James said.
"Great," Carlos said. He turned and started back down the hallway. James smirked and pulled his phone out and dialed the number on his hand. His smirk grew as Carlos' phone rang. Carlos answered his phone. "Hello," Carlos said.
"I want to do this again," James said. Carlos turned around a smile on his face.
"I meant to call me after you left," Carlos said laughing as he ended the call. James ended the call as well and walked over to Carlos.
"There's this party tomorrow night and I would love to have you come with me," James said putting his hands in his pockets.
"As…" Carlos said slowly.
"It's a little early for labels but I was thinking maybe as my possible boyfriend or something like that," James said his cheeks turning red.
"Are you blushing?" Carlos asked.
"No," James said his face getting redder if possible.
"I'd love to go," Carlos said.
"Great I'll pick you up at eight," James said smiling.
"Is this the part where we kiss?" Carlos asked, "because I've been wanting to kiss you for-omfpt-" James silenced Carlos by gently pressing his lip to his. James pulled away and looked at Carlos.
"Everything you wanted?" James asked.
"And more," Carlos said dreamily.
"I'll see you tomorrow night," James said laughing. Carlos nodded his head. He finally turned and walked to his apartment. James made his way down the hallway to the elevator. He was just so happy this date turned out so well. He even had a second date with Carlos.
-Better Than I Know Myself-
Carlos entered his apartment and sighed as closed the door and leaned against it. He was smiled and he looked over to the couch and saw Kendall sleeping. He walked over to the blonde and turned the TV off. He sat down and shook the blonde's shoulder gently. Kendall jerked awake.
"Carlos," he said groggily.
"Yeah," Carlos said.
"Before you tell me anything call Camille I am sure she's still up waiting for you to call," Kendall said as he sat up. Carlos did as he was told and called the brunette actress. She answered quickly.
"About time," Camille said.
"I'm putting you on speaker," Carlos said.
"How was your date?" Camille asked.
Carlos told them all about his date and how great James was. He told him about the fan girls and the movie. He even told them about the girl after the movie and how he accidentally stomped on James' foot.
"Wow he treated you good then?" Kendall asked.
"Yes and we have a date tomorrow night to this party," Carlos said.
"That's probably the party that Logan wants me to go to," Kendall said.
"What?" Carlos asked.
"Logan came over to talk to me," Kendall said, "he asked me to go to a party with him. His manager thinks it's best we get out in public together as soon as possible," he said.
"You agreed?" Camille asked.
"Yeah, we have to be seen together for people to know we're dating," Kendall said.
"But you're not dating," Camille said.
"The world doesn't have to know that," Kendall said. He yawned and felt a new wave of exhaustion sweep through him.
"Camille I think we should continue this tomorrow Kendall's tired," Carlos said.
"I am fine," Kendall said glaring at Carlos.
"You need sleep. You have to think of the baby now," Carlos said. Kendall sighed and nodded his head.
"You're right," Kendall said.
"Good night boys," Camille said.
"Night Cami," the two said together.
