Big Time Rush
Big Time Reason to Stay
Logan/Camille
I don't own Big Time Rush. A One Shot for now while I figure out what to do with Big Time Quake. Thanks for reading!
Logan sat in a chair by the pool half reading a magazine about science and half falling asleep. It was a warm night and Logan had decided to take a break from the guys and sit by himself to think about stuff. They had made it half way to getting an album produced and Logan was excited that they were going to be able to stay in LA and record a full length album but he wasn't sure how he was going to handle performing in front of everyone when they had to do concerts and stuff. It was nerve wracking for him. He didn't really consider himself a performer like James. Carlos would be happy to do anything as long as he could be with his friends and have fun. Kendall liked to think he wasn't completely confident and collected in any situation but Logan knew he was. Kendall had always been willing to go with whatever came his way and he made it look so cool!
Logan was drifting off when he heard someone sit loudly in the chair next to his. "Hey Logan!" She said.
Logan opened his eyes and sat up. "Hi Camille. What's up?"
"Nothing really. I just got back from a really hard audition. I had to wait for two hours! I think I did really well though."
"I hope you get it." Logan said smiling at her.
"Thanks. What are you doing here alone?"
"I just needed some time to think." Logan said.
"Oh. I could go if you want." Camille said standing.
Logan grabbed her hand said, "No. That's okay. Actually now that you're here, can I talk to you about stuff? Stuff I can't really talk to the guys about?"
Camille sat back down and looked at Logan holding her hand still. "Sure. What's up?"
"I've just been thinking about everything. I mean, we got this record deal and now we're staying here to do the album and it's really cool. At least that's what I thought earlier." Logan said putting his hands in his lap.
"What changed?" Camille asked.
"I talked to my parents today and realized it's been three months since I've seen them. I haven't slept in my bedroom in three months or seen anyone from school besides James, Carlos, and Kendall. I'm just wondering if this is the right thing to do." Logan said.
"I thought you liked being in a band? I thought you wanted the big time? You wouldn't have come here if that wasn't what you wanted. Right?" Camille said.
"I don't know. I think I did it for my friends. I can't stop imagining myself on stage messing things up that first time we perform for a crowd. What if I forget the words or the dance moves? I just don't want to screw this up for them." Logan said.
"You won't screw things up. I know I've only known you for three months Logan but I think you're being too hard on yourself. And if something didn't go as planned your friends would not blame you. Gustavo might yell loud enough to create an earthquake but your friends will never get mad at you." Camille said.
"I just don't like to put myself out there. I guess deciding to become part of a boy band was a bad move." Logan said.
"I'm glad you became a part of a boy band. If you hadn't we would have never met." Camille said. "Besides, you play hockey. Doesn't that require you to put yourself out there? And get hurt?"
"That's different. We're in uniforms and helmets and people aren't losing millions of dollars if we lose a game." Logan said.
Logan looked into her eyes. She gave him a small smile.
"I'm glad I met you too Camille. I could learn a lot from you about worrying less."
"Sure. If you ever want to get away and talk, I'm here." She said.
"I'll have to take you up on that offer." Logan said. He picked up his magazine and stood. "I guess I should get back to the guys. They're gonna come looking for me soon. Then they'll throw me in the pool and then throw each other in the pool and then we're all going to be wet. Then we'll spend the next hour fighting to be the first in the shower."
Guitar guy was playing a song in the corner and Logan stopped to listen for a minute. He threw his magazine on the chair and reached his hand out to Camille.
"Want to dance?" He said smiling. Camille felt her heart skip a beat.
"You want to dance in front of everyone at the pool?" she asked.
"Of course I do. You're beautiful and I can't believe it's taken me this long to notice it. Besides, I'm trying to stop worrying so much." He said smiling at her.
She took his hand and he slowly inched closer to her as they danced slowly by the pool. He pulled her closer and he looked down at her. Camille smiled at him and he gave a shy smile in return.
"Shouldn't you be getting back to the guys?" Camille asked.
"They can wait." Logan said as they continued to dance.
Authors Note: Let me know what you think. It's a one shot that could become more later. It was kind of short but I thought it was a nice image for the two to dance in the moonlight. Thanks for reading!
