Okay, I think this one will turn out better than my other idea. Again, sorry about that. Anyway, Kenzie is back from Australia, and the story picks back up! Enjoy.

I stared up at the good old apartment building. I smiled up at it. I've missed this place for the past 18 months. Being in Australia for that long is hard on a girl. I paid the cab driver and started walking up towards the building. As I went up the elevator, I couldn't stop hopping up and down. You have talked to Ali and the BTR guys on skype and stuff, but it'll be great to see them in person! I practically ran up to the door, and had to take a few seconds to calm down. I knocked on the door.

The door opened, and Ali was standing there. Her eyes widened, and she let out a little scream, and gave me a huge hug.

"Oh. My. God. You're back!" She was jumping, I couldn't help but smile. "Why didn't you call? I could've came to get you!"

"I wanted to surprise you!" I laughed. "And come on. You would have paid the cab fare both ways?" She stuck out her tongue and grabbed my bag and pulled it in the door. I followed inside.

"So the guys don't know either?" She looked at me.

"Nope. No one except the people on my plane and the cab driver." I couldn't stop smiling. Ali had a few small changes, but otherwise she looked about the same as she did when I left. Her natural blonde curls had gotten a little brown highlights, causing her hair to look a little darker. She also got a little bit of a tan.

I looked about the same. Straight dark brown hair, pulled into a ponytail, naturally. I have not gotten a tan, but I wasn't exactly pale.

"Well, that was one lucky cab driver! I'll text the guys. They're going to be excited to see you! Especially you-know-who.." she gave me a little wink and went to grab her phone. I reached up and grabbed my star necklace, given to me from my boyfriend, Logan, right before going to Australia. I smiled and looked around the room. It looked pretty much the same as when I left it. Wow, there's a shock. Ali came out of her room. "Carlos says they just got out of rehearsal, but will be over as soon as they can!" She sat on the couch. "So, tell me everything!" I went and sat next to her.

"Well, it was amazing! And I met some amazing people! Like, there's Bianca, who is from Ireland! She speaks English really well, but still has a little accent, which is really cool. And she lives here in LA! She worked behind the scenes, but she was my roommate, so we're kinda close. And then there's Kyle, who was the male lead in the movie. We're pretty good friends. He lives in San Francisco, but he's American, no cool accent." I laughed. There was a knock on the door. Ali got up to answer it, and before I knew it, I heard this wonderful male shout.

"KENZIE!" Before I realized what was happening, I was in the midst of a group hug. I couldn't help but laugh. Then Ali spoke up.

"1… 2… 3… Where's Logan?" I looked up as the guys backed away. She was right, only 3 of the 4 guys were standing in our living room. Kendall, the tall blonde, James, the tall brunette, and Carlos, the shorter Latino, also known as Ali's boyfriend, but no Logan.

"Well," Carlos laughed. "If I'm guessing correctly, and I think I am, probably at his place." What was he up to?

"What? Why? His girlfriend just got back from Australia! I thought he'd be the first one here!" Ali looked confused.

"He doesn't know yet." James laughed with Carlos.

"What do you mean he doesn't know?" Ali gave Carlos a look.

"Well, he was in the shower when we stopped by to tell him, so we just let him be and left a sticky note on the counter." Kendall even cracked a smile.

"Oh God, not again." Ali sighed.

"What?" I looked around.

"These idiots have been playing jokes on poor Logan all week. They know you were coming home sometime this week, so they've been telling him all week that you were back." Now I understood the look.

"Oh come on guys…" Just then, Carlos' phone rang.

"Hello… Oh, hi Logan." He smiled at me. "Yeah, we were there. Yes, she's actually here this time. … I'm not lying! I'm literally looking at her as we speak…Look, just come over and you'll see for yourself! Okay, bye see you soon." He hung up the phone.

"You see what you idiots are doing to him? He doesn't even believe she's actually here!" I couldn't help but laugh. She looked at me. "What?"

"I've missed you guys."

About a half hour later, the guys and Ali were hanging in the living room while I was unpacking a little bit. Didn't want to do too much at one time. I heard the door knock, and someone went to answer it.

"Hey Logan." I heard Kendall say.

"Hey, what do you guys want now?" He sounded a little annoyed. Wow, Ali was right about how they were bugging him. Geez.

"I told you on the phone and sticky note." Carlos said, and I could just imagine him smiling.

"Carlos, it was funny the first time, but now it's getting old. Is she really here or not?" I walked into the living room.

"I'd say I'm pretty close." I smiled at him. He had to do a double-take when he saw me. Then he broke into a huge smile and gave me a huge hug. He let me go a little bit, and gave me a quick kiss. I've missed him, too much.

"When did you get back?" He asked me, still with a smile on his face. I've seriously missed that photo-perfect smile. And his dark brown hair, and dark brown eyes. He's pretty.

"About an hour ago. I took a cab." I kissed him again, and then James broke in.

"Okay you two lovebirds, we wanna talk to her too!" Logan laughed and we went to sit on the couch.

"So, what have I missed in the past year and a half?" I looked around the 5 other people there.

"Well, the guys went on tour, and got haircuts." Ali pointed out. I looked at each of their heads, and it looked the same… "Well it grew back!" Ali laughed.

"Ahh… So how was the tour?"

"Pretty fun. It's good to be back though." James smiled.

"And… Ali got a real job." Carlos smiled at her. I raised my eyebrows.

"Really? And what is Ali doing?" I looked at her. She had a smile.

"Okay, it's nothing huge. I mean, I'm only an intern, but… J-14 magazine!" She practically freaked out. I did a little too. That was Ali's favorite magazine, and I knew this was huge for her!

"Congratulations! That's awesome!" I smiled at her. Then I turned my attention to Kendall. "And how 'bout little Kendall? Anything happen to you?" He smiled.

"Maybe." Was that it?

"Okay, I was gone for 18 months, you can't just respond with maybe!" I laughed.

"Fine, I might be seeing this one girl." I raised my eyebrow.

"Oh? And who is this?" He sighed.

"Her name is Jessie. We've only been dating for about 2 weeks, so she really hasn't met the guys yet."

"Oh come on. I met them before Logan and I got together!" I joked and Kendall smiled.

"Yeah, but you met each other the same day we all met." I stuck out my tongue. I turned to James.

"How about you?"

"Still single, still singing, still awesome." He puffed out his chest at 'still awesome' and Carlos threw a pillow at him. I yawned, and Ali gave me a look.

"Okay, you're sleep deprived. Go to bed, now." She pointed to my room.

"Really? Now?" I gave her the puppy-dog look.

"Yes. We can talk more when you wake up. Go get sleep." I sighed and got up.

"I guess I'll see you all later." I gave a small wave and walked to my room.

God, I missed those guys. Too much.
