Notes: Every chapter will start with a quote that I feel encompasses what the chapter is about. :)
Pairing(s): Main- Logan/Camille, Minor- Kendall/Jo, Carlos/Stephanie, James/Numerous
Jo Taylor was used to having her best friend, Camille Roberts, over to her apartment/hotel room at the Palms Woods. What she wasn't used to was having Camille call her at 4:00 in the morning, crying her eyes out and asking if she could come over. Of course, Jo had said yes and now she was sitting on her sofa, watching Paid Programming and snacking on pretzels. Soon enough, she heard a soft knock on the door and she jogged over to answer it. Camille was standing in the hallway and she looked terrible. She had on a Mickey Mouse shirt and basketball shorts, her long brown hair was knotted up in a bun and her big brown eyes were bloodshot from crying.
"Camille, what happened?" Jo asked.
Camille shook her head, not saying anything. Jo brought her into the house, leading her over to the white sofa that sat in the center of the living room. They both sat down and almost instantly, Camille began to cry again.
"Did Logan do something?" Jo asked.
Camille shook her head. "No, he didn't do anything. I mean, well, kinda. But, it was both of us. Not just him." Camille sniffled. "My mom is going to kill me, Jo. She already despises me for dragging her out here and she blames me for dad leaving and now she's going to just pick up and leave all together."
"Camille, calm down. Your mom isn't going to leave you. What happened?"
Camille looked at her best friend and sighed. "You know how Logan and I took our relationship to the next level, right?"
Jo nodded, she knew that Logan and Camille had had sex. It had been on their four month anniversary. "Yeah, I know. Dinner, movie, and a fun time back at your apartment while your mom was away for the weekend. Why? Oh my God, did Logan cheat on you? I'll kill that bastard. How could he do that?"
"Jo, stop it. Logan didn't cheat on me," Camille said.
Jo sighed from relief. "Good, good. Then, what did happened?"
Camille took a deep breath. "Well, I realized yesterday that I hadn't gotten my period, which I was supposed to get a week and a half ago. So I went out and got a pregnancy test this afternoon and waited until mom was asleep to take it, just incase I got emotional, I didn't want her to see me. So I took it and...and..." Camille couldn't make herself say the rest.
"Cammy, are you pregnant?"
Camille nodded, looking sick at the thought of it. Jo clasped her hands over her mouth.
"Have you told anyone?" she asked.
"No one but you. I took the test and then called you because I didn't want to be alone. I don't know what I'm going to do. I mean, I don't want to get rid of the baby, but everything is so confusing right now."
"When are you going to tell Logan?" Jo asked.
"Tomorrow. But I'm going to need your help. Stephanie is going to be out with Carlos tomorrow but James, Kendall and Logan are supposed to be hanging out all day. I need you to, somehow, get them out of the apartment so that I can talk to Logan."
Jo nodded. "They wanted to see the new Transformers movie. I'll just invite James along with me and Kendall. They're not going to pass up a free movie."
Camillle leaned over and hugged her best friend. "What would I ever do without you?"
Camille and Jo fell asleep around five and woke up at noon. Camille decided to borrow one of Jo's sundresses, white with pink flowers, considering she didn't want to go back to her apartment. She didn't want to listen to her mother complain about her leaving, that is, if she even realized that Camille was gone. She had left her mother a note explaining that she had gotten a call from Jo and had gone over to her apartment, something her mother probably hadn't even noticed. Gretchen Roberts was good at pretending her daughter didn't exist.
By the time that Camille and Jo reached 2J it was twelve thirty. Camille looked at Jo nervously, biting at her bottom lip.
"So, you're going to take Kendall and James to the movies and that'll give me and Logan like, three hours of alone time, right?" she asked.
Jo nodded. "And I'll take them out for ice cream or something after, if you want me too. Stephanie and Carlos are spending the day together and shouldn't be back until dinner time, so don't worry about them. Just breath, Camille. You'll do fine," Jo said.
Camille nodded, half-heartedly smiling. Jo sighed confidently and then knocked on the door. It only took a couple of moments before the door opened and Kendall looked out at them. He smiled when he saw them standing there.
"Hey. What's up?" he asked, inviting them in and kissing Jo as they entered.
"I was wondering if you and James would like to go and see the new Transformers movie and then, maybe, go out for ice cream," Jo said, looking from Kendall to James, who was sitting on the couch and nodding excitedly.
"Um, sure. That sounds great. What about Logan?" Kendall asked, pointing in the direction of the smart boy who was seated next to James.
"I think Camille has other plans for Logan this afternoon," Jo winked at Kendall.
Kendall nodded in understanding. "Ok then. Come on, James. Have fun, Logan," he called as he, James, and Jo headed out the door.
Once the door clicked shut, Camille headed to sit next to Logan on the couch.
"Hey babe. This is a pleasant surprise," Logan said, leaning in to kiss her.
Camille kissed back but pulled away sooner than she normally would. When she did, Logan looked confused. He slung his arm over the back of the couch and turned to look at her.
"Is there something wrong?" he asked.
Camille bit at her lip, trying not to cry. She shook her head no and, just as she did, tears started to fall from her eyes without permission. She covered her face with her hands and leaned forward, resting her elbows on her knees. She felt Logan put his hand on her back as he slid closer to her. He wrapped her up in a hug and kissed the top of her head.
"Camille, what's wrong? Honey, what happened?"
"I'm s-so s-s-sorry, Logan. I-I don't kn-know what to do," she cried against his chest.
"Do about what? Tell me what happened," Logan said.
Camille sat up, wiping the tears away from her eyes, and looked Logan in the eyes. How was she supposed to do this? They were both only sixteen, Logan's seventeenth birthday a couple months away. Logan had his band to deal with and the touring and the recording. And Camille had her acting. How was she supposed to look at him and tell him that all that was in jeopardy because she was pregnant?
"Logan, I missed my period," she said.
Logan was quiet, fear creeping up into his dark eyes. "Oh," he managed to say.
"Yeah. So, yesterday I took a pregnancy test."
Logan nodded, swallowing nervously. "What did it say?" he asked.
"It said that I was pregnant."
Logan's face drained of any and all color. His eyes got wide and his mouth opened slightly. His breath hitched in his throat and for a moment, everything froze. Time stood still as he looked at Camille, her eyes red and her cheeks puffy. She was playing with her hands, smoothing out the skirt of her dress. And then, reality came back and hit Logan hard.
"I'm going to be a dad?" he asked.
Camille nodded. "I wanna go to the doctor and make sure but, yeah. You're gonna be a dad. Logan, I'm so sorry."
"Sorry? Why are you sorry? I should be sorry. It's my fault," Logan turned and leaned his back against the couch, running a hand down his face.
"It's not your fault. We were both there when it happened," Camille said.
"Yeah, I know. But, after we finished the second time, I didn't tell you that the condom broke. I don't know why I didn't, I knew that I should have. But you looked so happy and content, I didn't want to ruin that. God, how could I have been so stupid?"
"Calm down, Logan. It happened and there's nothing we can do about it. And, do you honestly think that I didn't realized something must have happened when I moved from the backseat to the front and something dripped down my leg?" Camille cocked her eyebrow at him and smirked slightly.
"I'm still sorry," Logan said. "Who knows about this?"
"You, me and Jo. I freaked out last night and called her. I should've told you first but, I just needed to talk to a girl."
Logan nodded. "I understand. We should probably tell Mama Knight, since I live here. And we should tell your mom. And video chat my mom. Oh God, this is a lot."
"I know. But, first things first, we should probably talk about what we're going to do," Camille said, looking at him seriously.
"Do? Oh, I know what you mean. Well, I know it's your choice but, I don't want you to get an abortion," Logan said.
Camille nodded. "I know. I don't want one." she was quiet for a moment. "Should we keep the baby? I mean, your schedule is pretty hectic and all that."
"Camille, I will figure something out so that I can be home with you and the baby as much as possible. That is, if you want to keep it," Logan said.
"I think I do. I mean, it'll be hard, but I think we can do it," Camille said, a small smile forming on her lips.
"I agree," Logan said, before leaning forward and giving her a kiss. Suddenly, they heard keys jingle in the door. Moments later, Mama Knight and Katie walked in with grocery bags. Logan and Camille shared a glance and nodded. It was time to tell them.
