Jatie

She so has a giant crush on me.

James talking about Katie, Big Time Fans

Jatie is the friendship pairing of (Ja/mes and Ka/tie). It is unlikely that they will get together in a romantic way anytime soon considering the age difference between them is about 6 years. They are known to be good friends who spend a good amount of time together. They live in the Palm Woods with Mrs. Knight Kendall Logan and Carlos. James is protective of Katie as if she was a sister. Katie and James are main characters and they have both been present for most episodes. They are both known to scheme and be sneaky at times. The two seem to both care about the safety of each other and James can get overprotective of Katie sometimes which makes her annoyed yet appreciative. At times they delve into each other's love life.

Besides Kendall James seems to be the closest to Katie out of the others in the group.

It can be also called Katmes (Katie and James).

A similar relationship is Catie and Kendie.

This pairing will never happen (at least not while Katie is still a minor) because of the large age difference and illegality of a potential relationship
