Chapter 27
"Hey can you get James for me? He said that he wanted to tell me something." June asked once Kendall opened the door for 2J.
"Well actually he's not here." Kendall said. "None of the boys are."
"Okay then where is he?" June asked.
"I'm not sure, there was a big fight and then Logan, Carlos, and James moved out." Kendall said.
"What!" June yelled. "They moved out!"
"Yes, so I need your help to get them to come back." Kendall said.
"Do we have to do it today? I mean, wait a week and they'll all come back." June said. Kendall looked at her weird.
"James didn't tell you, did he?" Kendall asked. June returned the odd look.
"No I don't think so. What didn't he tell me?" June asked.
"I don't know if I should tell you, maybe James should." Kendall said. June stepped forward and grabbed and handful of Kendall's shirt and brought him down to her level.
"Tell me." June said.
"Fine, fine. Just let go of me." Kendall said. June released and Kendall fixed his shirt.
"We're going on a world tour. We fly to London in a couple days, then around Europe, then Canada, and then the rest in the US." Kendall said. June went and sat on the chair.
"You're leaving again?" June asked quietly. "Are James and I ever going to have any time to be a real couple?"
"Of course. You had prom and the 2 weeks before you left. You had all of this last month. And when we get back, unless you leave to another internship." Kendall said. June sighed.
"Yeah okay. Let's get the boys. We'll good cop, bad cop them." June said. They walked downstairs and looked around. The saw Logan's cabana.
"Logan what are you doing?" June asked. He came out of his tent.
"Well I can't live with the boys so I rented the cabana out." Logan said. June scoffed.
"That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Why would you live down here instead of the awesome apartment." June asked.
"Because of the guys!" Logan exclaimed.
"You mean your best friends?" June asked.
"Not until Carlos apologizes." Logan huffed and walked back inside.
"Well I tried. Let's try Carlos, he'll be easier." June said.
"You don't want to know why they're angry at each other?" Kendall asked.
"Knowing you 4, it's something stupid, so I don't care." June said. Kendall looked offended for a second, then nodded.
"Okay that's true. I think Carlos is in the park." Kendall said. They went over to the park.
"Please tell me Carlos isn't living in that box." June said as she pointed to a box across the park.
"I think he is." Kendall said.
"You boys." June mumbled. They walked to the box. "Do we knock?"
"No there's a doorbell." Kendall said and rang it. A long doorbell rang and June and Kendall exchanged confused glances. They heard footsteps and finally Carlos opened the door.
"Hi June." Carlos said and waved. June smiled and waved back.
"Kendall." Carlos said angrily.
"Look Carlos, buddy, you have to come and move back in." Kendall said.
"No, not until James' apologizes." Carlos said and closed the door.
"Let's find James." June said and they walked away.
"Where do you think he is?" June asked as they got upstairs to the second floor.
"I have no idea." Kendall said. They ran into, literally, a man in a power scooter.
"Oh sorry sir!" June said. She looked at the man. "Wait, James?" He was dressed in old looking clothes. "What are you wearing?"
"I moved out and I took over an apartment of a man who moved to Florida to retire, so I get a power scooter and my own place." James said as he moved his arm in a 'look at my scooter' motion.
"Kendall go try to convince the others. I need to talk to James." June said. Kendall nodded and left. "Alright, where's your room?"
James reversed over to the room and opened the door and wheeled in. June closed the door behind them.
"Oh my gosh." June said looking at the room. It looked like a rich senior home.
"It's great, isn't it?" James asked.
"It's something." June said. "It looks like the senior home that my mom works in."
"You hated going there." James said.
"My point exactly." June said, returning her gaze to James. She went and sat down on the couch. "So, I know what you wanted to tell me earlier." James looked at her.
"You do?" He asked.
"Yeah. Kendall told me. I can't believe your leaving on tour again." June said. James stood up and walked over and sat next to June. He wrapped his arm around her and June snuggled into his side and put her legs on James' lap. He laid his other arm on her legs.
"I know. I'm gonna miss you." James said as he kissed the top of her head.
"I feel like our relationship keeps getting put on hold." June said.
"That's the Hollywood life of young adults." James said. "But we're both living our dreams!" James said as he squeezed June closer to him.
"Well at this rate, with you fighting with your best friends, you're not even going on tour." June said.
"Well I guess that's a good thing isn't it? Then we get to be together longer." James said.
"No James. You are going on this tour. You are going to go move back in to 2J." June said.
"Not until Logan apologizes." James said. June stood up.
"Fine. I'll go talk to him." June said. James stood up to and tried to kiss her, but June covered his mouth. "Don't kiss me I'm angry." James sighed and June moved her hand away. James leaned in quickly and kissed June.
"I hate you." June said.
"No you don't." James said. June sighed.
"Shut up." June said and left. She went and found Kendall.
"Okay, James won't come back until Logan apologizes." June said. Kendall groaned.
"Well what do we do?" Kendall asked. June shrugged. "Okay then, how about we tell everyone that they are all going to apologize and then they will all go up to the room."
"And how does that fix everything?" June asked.
"I don't know. We'll just try it." Kendall said.
"Fine let's go get them I'll get Carlos and James, you get Logan." June said. Kendall nodded and they parted way. June went to the park. She rung the doorbell on Carlos' box house.
"Hey June!" Carlos said. He pulled out a sheet of cookies. "Want a cookie?"
"Did you make those?" June asked. Carlos nodded. "In there?" June said pointed at the box house. Carlos nodded again. June took one and ate it.
"Oh my goodness, Carlos, these are so good!" June said. Carlos smiled.
"Thank you. Now what can I do for you?" Carlos asked.
"Oh uh, James wants to apologize! So come up to the room in like 5 minutes ok?" June said. Carlos looked at her suspiciously.
"Okay. I'll come." Carlos said. June nodded and ran up to James' room. She knocked on the door. James answered it and greeted her with a kiss.
"Hey babe." James said.
"Hey. Logan wants to apologize so let's go to 2J." June said.
"Why should I?" James asked.
"Because I'm your girlfriend and I'm telling you to go." June said and crossed her arms. James nodded.
"Okay." James said and took her hand. June dragged him down the hall to 2J and opened the door. She pulled James in and Logan was already there. Carlos walked in right after them. The boys immediately started arguing. June turned to Kendall.
"Did you figure out why they are fighting?" June asked. Kendall nodded and handed her a video game.
"A video game?" June asked.
"Yeah Battle Blast 5. We got it last week and everyone has been arguing over it since we got it." Kendall said. June nodded.
"Everyone shut up!" June yelled. The boys stopped fighting and turned to her. "Stop fighting over a stupid video game."
They, including Kendall, scoffed. "Girls." June raised and eyebrow.
"Oh I see how it is." June said. "Alright. If you keep fighting,"
"You won't ever get Camille," June said as she pointed at Logan.
She pointed at Carlos. "You won't get a girlfriend."
She pointed to James, "And you will be out of a girlfriend." She crossed her arms again. The boys glanced at each other. James walked over to June.
"You know what, I'm sorry Carlos." James said and wrapped an arm around June.
"And I'm sorry Logan." Carlos said.
"Yeah I'm sorry James." Logan said.
"So you're all moving back in?" Kendall asked.
"Yeah." The other three boys said in unison. June and Kendall high-fived. Then Gustavo and Kelly walked in.
"Alright, we have a little mini concert planned for you boys to do before you leave on the 'All Over the World Tour' out in the pool area." Gustavo said. June sighed and looked down. James pulled her closer to him and she looked up at him and gave a half smile. James looked towards Gustavo and Kelly.
"Hey could we bring June on tour? She could help you along the way Gustavo." James said.
"Yeah, I could use her help." Gustavo said. James turned to June.
"See you can come and now we don't have to be separated." James said. June smiled, but shook her head.
"I would absolutely love to come James, but I have school. I get this next week off, and then I'm back. I need to finish this so I can get a real job." June said.
"But you have a job. You work for Gustavo!" James pointed out.
"Yeah, but that's not like a real job that I get paid for, Justine gets paid for it. What if Justine gets married and moves out or she kicks me out? I need to support myself. I'm really sorry. I have to do school." June said. James sighed and turned to Kelly.
"Where is our first show?" James asked.
"London, we leave in 2 days." Kelly responded.
"Okay, June why don't you come with us to London? You've always want to go there. We can spend some time together there and then we will see you when we get back from the tour." James said. June smiled and nodded this time.
"That sounds great. Thank you baby." June said and leaned up and kissed him. He held her close.
"Look, we don't have time for you two to make out if front of us. The boys need to go down a mini concert down by the pool." Gustavo said. June and James pulled away.
"Let's go." James said. He took June's hand and they walked down to the pool, which was set up for a show and there was a crowd. James let go of June's hand and walked over to the mics. June stood near the front. She could see Lucy to her left and Camille to her right. The boys started to sing "All Over Again" because it was the album name.
"It's like I'm falling in love, all over again, for the first time, and I know that it feels right." The boys sang, James looking right at June. She smiled at him and he smiled back. June thought about her unfinished song, "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together," and she smiled to herself. Never say never.
