Carlos's POV

After our shortest recording session ever (probably because Gustavo wasn't there to spend half the time yelling at us), the guys, Stella, Charlotte, and I went out for tacos.

"Behs… taco… evah," Kendall tried to say between bites.

"Come on Kendall," I moaned. "Chew with your mouth closed!"

All the guys stared at me like I was crazy.

"You're the one who always talks with his mouth stuffed!" Logan said.

I fidgeted in my seat. I was kinda, well, ok, a lotta trying to impress Charlotte. I'm sure she did not like mouth-stuff chewers. After taking a small bite of my taco, I wiped my mouth with a napkin politely. James saw and ended sitting out his taco like a spit-take in disbelief and shock. He then started coughing crazily.

Stella quickly patted him on the back. "Cough, James! Don't die! Cough it out! There you go…"

James glared at me, then saw me looking at Charlotte and smiled. He kicked me under the table. I ignored him.

"So what do you think Gustavo will think of the song?" Kendall said, trying to start a conversation.

"He'll love it, I'm sure," Logan said, then smiled at Charlotte. I pinched him hard underneath the table. "OW!"

"I don't know…" Charlotte said, ignoring Logan's outburst. "Are you sure?"

"Absolutely!" I said.

"Yeah, worst thing that could happen is he just makes us rerecord it because we were pitchy in a couple of parts," James reassured.

"O-Okay," Charlotte said.

"Come on, Lottie!" Stella said. "Only someone un-human would hate it!"

"Well, Gustavo is-" Kendall started, but Logan and I cut him off by kicking him under the table. "Er, ouch."

"I'm done," Charlotte said, standing up and picking up tray.

"Me, too!" I said, picking up my barely-touched taco and following her.

"I'm stuffed!" Logan exclaimed, grabbing his tray, too. I glared at him.

I could practically feel Kendall and James roll their eyes in exasperation.

That night, Logan and I got into a heated argument about Charlotte.

"She is my girl!" I exclaimed.

"How?" Logan said. "She hasn't showed any interest in you!"

"She hasn't showed interest in either of us! But I called dibs!"

"You can't call dibs on a girl!" Jo shouted from the living room, where she and Kendall were watching a movie.

"Anyway," Logan said. "You actually didn't official call dibs on her!"

"Well, you guys knew I liked her! And the rest of you didn't show interest, so then the silent dibs applies!"

"The 'silent dibs'?" Logan raised an eyebrow. "Now you're just making stuff up."

"You know what I mean! You didn't show any interest in her, so she's mine!"

"She's not anyone's until she chooses to be," James said. We screamed. We didn't know he was in the room.

"What are you doing here?" Logan asked.

"It's my room?" James said.

"Mine, too!" I said.

"Whatever," James said. "Go fight in Logan and Kendall's room, where you won't disturb your roommate."

We grouchily left the room.

"Well, there's one thing we can agree on," Logan said. I glanced at him suspiciously. "We're glad James doesn't like Charlotte."

I nodded. "But what if Charlotte likes James?"

Logan shuddered. "Don't even want to think about it."

"Well, she probably doesn't," I said as we entered Logan and Kendall's room. "Isn't against girl code to like your best friend's boyfriend?"

Logan shrugged. "I guess so, but Stella and James aren't official yet."

I couldn't help but laugh at all the memories of Stella and James. James was definitely creeped out by her and her… craziness. But she was head over heels in love.

"Why do you think James doesn't like Charlotte?" Logan questioned.

"To give us a chance?" I suggested.

"He didn't do that with Jo."

"Maybe he just doesn't like her." We were quiet for a moment, to ponder the thought. "Nah," we said in unison.

"Maybe he has his eye on someone else…" Logan said. I thought about for a while.

"I bet that's it. But who?"

"The Jennifers?"

"Maybe."

"Stephanie?"

"No, we hardly see her."

"Camille?" Logan said hopefully.

I laughed. "No such luck, Logan."

"Stella?" he joked.

"Hah, no."

"Probably someone we don't know."

"Yeah, who knows who he meets at the 'Cuda photo shoots." I laughed.

Katie then barged into the room.

"Hey, you guys aren't fighting," she said.

"Hey, this isn't your room," Logan said.

Katie pulled open one of the drawers of the bureau. "Don't worry, Lo-gain. I'm just pranking Kendall. Wanna help?"

We both shook our heads. "No thanks, but feel free to go about your business," Logan said.

Katie dug through a couple more drawers, found what she wanted, and quickly put in the bag. I didn't see what she had.

"Have fun fighting… or laughing. Whatever you are doing." Katie left.

I yawned then looked at the clock. It was 10:04.

"I'm going to bed," I said.

"K," Logan said.

"G'Night."

"G'Night."

Just as I was leaving the room, I turned to Logan.

"Charlotte is mine!"

I quickly ran into my room before Logan could argue.
