"You dumped me for her...'' Lucy finished her song and the soundcheck.
"Alright!'' Carl, her manager, said and smiled at Lucy. "It sounds great, Lucy! Your done for the day.'' He smiled.
Lucy smiled and jumped off the podium to dress back into her own clothes. Backstage she bumped into Trey. She hesistantly smiled and bit her lip as she stared in his eyes. Trey smiled back and put a hand on her shoulder.
"We need to stop meeting like this.'' Trey said chuckling. Lucy laughed and smiled.
"Maybe... or are you doing it on purpose? Are you stalking me?'' Lucy teased Trey and punched his shoulder.
Trey smiled and shook his head. "You wish. Hey, are you ready to hang out?''
Lucy bit her lip smiling. "Uhm... I gotta chance first. Wait here.'' she said before running to wardrobe to change.
She quickly changed into her daily outfit and ran back to Trey. Trey smiled at her and let her eyes wander down her body.
"That was fast.'' Trey remarked.
Lucy chuckled. "I could've been faster if a cute guy wasn't distracting me.'' She cursed herself for calling Trey cute.
Trey smiled and took a step closer to Lucy. "Cute?''
Lucy took a step back. "No. I can't. I have a boyfriend and I... I love him.''
Trey took a step back and stuffed his hands in his pockets. "Of course... your boyfriend.'' Trey couldn't help btut hiss.
Lucy rolled her eyes. "Okay, look. Are we gonna stand here and fight or are we hanging out?''
"I'm not fighting!'' Trey said raising his hands, then he smiled. "Let's go to the best cafe in town.''
Lucy smiled. "Arlright. Let's go.''
Trey wrapped and arm around her shoulders as they walked away. Lucy wanted to push his arm off of her shoulder but she didn't want to annoy Trey. She felt her phone vibrate and she pulled it out of her pocket. She ran a hand through her black and red hair and a wide grin made a way to her lips as she saw James was calling her. She felt her heart skip a beat and answered.
"Hey, you!'' She answered.
"'Hey' yourself.'' James teased her.
Lucy chuckled. She felt eyes on her. She saw Trey staring at her. She shook her head. "I miss you, Jamie.'' she pouted.
"Miss you too sweetheart.'' James replied. Lucy could hear he was pouting too.
"Oh yeah, what do you miss exactly.'' Lucy asked, wincing when Trey tightened his grip on her.
"Cuddling with you, holding you in my arms... and... uh...'' James trailed off. Lucy knew he was blushing.
Lucy laughed. "I miss kissing you too, dork.''
"You are... amazing.'' James said smiling.
"We're here.'' Trey said as they came to a hold.
"Wait.'' James said. "Who's that?''
Lucy sighed. "It's Trey, the guy I was hanging out with remember?''
"Oh.'' James roared out. "Him.''
"Yes. Him. James, I gotta go.'' Lucy said.
"Lucy wait!'' James exclaimed.
"What?'' Lucy asked.
"I... I lo... I lo-'' Lucy's heart skipped a beat, was he trying to tell her that he loved her? He heard her sigh. "I just really miss you.''
Lucy sighed and felt slightly disappointed. She knew it was hard to say 'I love you'. She smiled. "Miss you too, Jamie.''
She blew a kiss through the phone and smiled when James did the same. It made her heart beat faster.
"I'll call you tonight, okay?''
"I'm looking forward to it. Bye, Luce.''
"Bye, Jamie.'' Lucy said and hung up.
Trey was standing there with crossed arms and raised an eyebrow at her when she hung up.
"Are you finally done?'' Trey teased.
Lucy rolled playfully her eyes and forcefully pushed him into the cafe while laughing.
James hung up and threw his phone onto the coffee table. He fell back against the orange coushions. Logan sat next to him and raised an eyebrow.
"What's up dude?'' Logan asked putting his book aside and turning to James.
"Lucy's hanging out with this guy and I don't have a good feeling about him...'' James mumbled and crossed his arms tightly.
Logan smiled and patted James' shoulder. "And you didn't want to tell Lucy 'no' because she would think that you wouldn't trust her. Am I right?''
James smiled slightly and nodded his head. "Yeah... you're always right.''
"Dude, Lucy likes you, don't doubt that. She would never cheat on you. You believe me?'' Logan asked.
James smiled wide now and nodded his head. "I do. Thanks dude. I'm gonna go text her and apologize.''
Logan pushed against his shoulder and then stood up and walked into his and Kendall's shared room. James grabbed his phone from the coffee table and created a new text message he sent to Lucy.
To: Lucy
From: James
Hey, Luce. I'm sorry I got annoyed when you told me about Trey. I want you to know I trust you. I miss you very much. Can't wait for you call tonight. xxx
James send the text and stood up. Kendall and Carlos came walking with Jo and Alexa on their arms. The fourth smiled at James.
"Hey, buddy!'' Kendall greeted.
"How ya doing?'' Carlos asked.
James chuckled. "I'm fine.''
"We were heading to the pool.'' Kendall said.
"Wanna come?'' Alexa and Jo asked at the same time.
James thought for a moment. He couldn't be pouting about Lucy for the rest of the 13 days. He missed her, but he had his own life too.
"Sure.'' James smiled. "Let me get my stuff. I'll meet you down at the pool.'' He said to the group.
Kendall, Jo, Carlos and Alexa smiled and waved at him before walking out of the apartment to go down to the pool. James finished changing into his swimsuit and combing his hair when he felt his phone vibrate.
To: James
From: Lucy
Awww sweety. I wasn't mad. You're the sweetest boyfriend I ever had. You're amazing. I trust you completely too! Miss you very much too and I'll call you as soon as I can! xxxxxx
James smiled. He put his phone down on the counter and runned out of the apartment to the pool.
Trey led Lucy to a table by the window. Lucy smiled as she sat down and looked around. The cafe was really modern with paintings hanging on the walls. Trey went to the bar to order them some drinks. Lucy waited patiently and tapped her foot while she waited. Her phone vibrated and she pulled it out of her pants. She saw it was from James and she smiled.

Lucy smiled and felt her heart swell up with love for her boyfriend. She softly aww'ed and looked for Trey who was by the bar waiting for their drinks. He looked to Lucy and smiled and waved when he saw her watching her. She smiled and waved back. She then looked back at her phone and typed a respond for James.

Lucy felt tears approach her eyes but she blinked them away. She swallowed a few times to get the lump out of her throat. Trey came back with two cups in his hands. He frowned when he saw the tears in Lucy's eyes. He sat down and placed the cups on the table. He then gently took Lucy's hand in his.
"What's wrong, Luce?'' Trey asked worried.
Lucy smiled and whiped the tears out of her eyes. "Nothing. A sweet text from James. That's all. I miss him so much...''
Trey gritted his teeth. He had enough of this James. He was going to make Lucy his. She would all forget about James when he was with her, he would make sure about that.
"Oh, well... Dating when you're famous is never easy.'' Trey said and raised his cup.
Lucy smiled and clinked her cup to his. She took a sip and kept thinking about James. She saw Trey was still holding her hand. She pulled it out of his grasp and placed it in her lap. Trey and Lucy kept sitting there for a while, chatting and drinking. An hour later they stood up after paying the cheque and walked outside. In front of the door Trey placed his hands on Lucy's shoulders.
"Your hotel is here around the right corner. I have unfortanetly have to go left here.'' Trey said.
"That's okay.'' Lucy said smiling. "I had a great time, thanks Trey.''
"Hey you're concert is tomorrow evening right?'' Trey asked.
Lucy nodded. "Yeah. Why?''
"Maybe I could get you to go sight seeing tomorrow around noon-ish?'' Trey asked smirking. Neither realised E! News was watching them.
"Sure, sounds good. I have to go now.'' Lucy said and jerked her thumb to the right with a smile.
"Sure.'' Trey said. He leaned in and kissed her cheek.
Lucy stood frozen for a few minutes. Trey winked at her and walked away. She touched her cheek. She finally shook her head and speed walked to the right to her hotel. She was definitely not telling James about this. He would freak. She walked into her room and sat on her bed and took her shoes off when her phone vibrated. She grabbed it and looked at it.
It was James.
James came walking into 2J with Kendall and Carlos laughing. They had a great time with the girls at the pool. James knew this would do him good. Some guy-time with his friends and the rest of these days would fly by. Logan was watching E! news. Kendall and Carlos jumped next to him on the couch and asked Logan what was on E! news so far. James chuckled as he heard Logan explain everything in detail as he walked towards the fridge as he heard the news reporter say something which got his full attention. He dropped the water bottle and raced to the couch where he stood behind his best buds and Logan turned up the volume with wide eyes.
"And it looks like that Lucy Stone has a new crush!'' The reporter said as a picture was showed of Trey kissing Lucy's cheek. "Could it be true that Lucy already forgot about her boyfriend James Diamond? Or should I say EX-Boyfriend?'' the reporter winked at the camera before talking about something else.
The four boys watched the news with dropped jaws. Fear and anger creeped into James' body. He let out a high pitched panicked scream. His friends jumped over the couch and stood next to him.
"Calm. Down.'' Kendall said as he put his hands on James' shoulders. "There has to be a logical explanation for this.''
James had his hands in his hair and pulled tightly at his hair. Carlos ran to the kitchen counter and grabbed James' mobile. He runned back and slided on his feet in front of James. He thrusted James' phone out to James.
"Dude, call her.'' Carlos said. "And don't get mad.''
Anger had won it from fear and James snatched his phone out off Carlos' hand.
"I'll make my own decision, thank you.'' He spat angrily as he dialed Lucy's number.
"Hey you!'' Lucy said teasingly.
"'Hey' yourself!'' James spat.
Lucy frowned when she heard the tone in James' voice.
"Is something wrong...?'' Lucy asked hesistantly.
"'Lucy Stone has a new crush'!? Seriously? Did you like that guy kissing your cheek!?'' James yelled angrily as he felt his friends trying to calm him down.
"James... what are you talking about?'' Lucy asked hurt.
"I'm talking about that 'Friendly Exchange' between you and Trey.'' James spat out his name. "E! News filmed you guys.''
"Oh, no'' Lucy groaned and ran a hand over his face.
"Yes. Were you even going to tell me!?'' James yelled. He felt tears approach his eyes. He didn't bother blinking them away.
"... No. Cause I know you would react like this. Jamie-'' Lucy tried to say.
"Don't call me that.'' James said hoarsely. Tears were streaming down his face and a huge lump was in his throat.
"But... James... I didn't kiss him.'' Lucy said, her voice was hoarsely too.
"Well you can now.'' James whispered.
"What do you mean?'' Lucy asked, fear clearely in her voice.
"Dude,'' Kendall said slowly.
"Don't-'' Carlos said but James interupted him.
"We're over.'' He said after clearing his throat.
"Aaand he said it.'' Logan said, looking worriedly at James.
"But James-'' Lucy stammered.
"Goodbye, Lucy. I wish you the best.'' James said before hanging up.
It was silent for a few minutes in the apartment.
"Dude...'' Kendall whispered. The other two glanced worriedly at James.
"Leave me alone.'' James mumbled and made his way to the bedroom.
Lucy stared at the phone in her hand until tears blinded her vision. She couldn't believe James just broke up with her. She loved him. She never got even the chance to tell him. She cupped her mouth as more tears rolled down her cheeks and she let out a sob. She suddenly realized something. James said that E! News spied on them. She had an interview with E! News tomorrow at 12:00 PM. She smiled and jumped up. She just knew how to make this right and get James back.
The next day around 12:00 PM the boys were sitting on the orange couch, waiting for E! News with Lucy's interview. James sat there with his arms crossed and an annoyed look on his face. He didn't want to watch Lucy's interview but Kendall and Logan sat both at one side of him and he couldn't get away. He sighed as he saw Lucy's interview started.
"And here is LA's Pop Princess Lucy Stone!'' the reporter said as Lucy walked towards her with a smile.
''So before talk about your upcoming performance we want to talk about your new crush. Is there anything blooming up between you two?'' The reporter asked smiling.
Lucy sighed. "There's nothing going on between Trey and me. And even if I was single before I met him I wouldn't have date him. I had the most amazing boyfriend ever. When I first met him I thought he was the most selfcentered prick on the planet... But as I got to learn him more and more, I fell for his charms and then the kiss at the Tween Choice Awards... was the most amazing one I've ever had. James Diamond was the best thing that ever happened to me. And I lost him. But he's the only person I want to date and...'' Lucy hesistated.
Kendall, James, Carlos and Logan were all watching with their jaw dropped at what Lucy was saying. James felt his heart speed up when Lucy stopped before saying what she wanted to say.
"He's the most amazing person you'll ever meet. And I'm in love with him.'' Lucy said as she hopefully looked into the camera.
James heart was pounding out of his chest. He blushed and a smile raised on his face. Lucy loved him. Lucy loved him. The reporter thanked Lucy and they went to Lucy's openings act. Logan turned the volume off.
"Wow.'' Carlos breathed.
"That was...'' Kendall and Logan said together.
"Amazing...'' James finished.
He frantically searched for his phone. He found it and typed a text message to the girl who captured his heart.
Lucy was sitting in the chair in her dressing room. She had her head resting in her palm as she was looking at herself is the mirror. She hoped James watched the interview. Her phone vibrated and she snatched it from the dresser. Her heart started to beat quickly as she saw it was from James. She opened the text message with shaking hands.
To: Lucy
From: James
I love you too. And I'm so sorry.
Lucy bit her lip and smiled brightly before typing her response.
To: James
From: Lucy
Don't worry. It's okay. You did scare me though... I love you so much, Jamie. You mean everything to me. Are we back together?
Lucy send the text message and bit her lip. James replied immediately. She smiled at the response.
To: Lucy
From: James
Of course we are sweetheart. :) I love you too. I'll call you tonightxxx
Lucy put her phone down and looked at herself in the mirror. She smiled and bit her lip again. Her plan worked. She won James back in a blink off an eye. And she loved him dearly.
