CH. 2 A Good Turn

Logan knew that she'd have hell to pay sooner or later with how many girls were throwing murderous glares as she walked arm in arm with Tyler to the dining hall. She had promised him earlier in the day to accompany him to eat dinner in exchange that he'd get the nerve to finally ask Lauren out.

Tyler had been pining for her for the past two weeks and always got weak in the knees when she was near. Logan had found out unfortunately for him and he finally had agreed to try and make a move if she ate lunch with him today since he had decided to skip out of weight lifting with the swim team. He could only pretend to not notice all the whispering and staring the female population of Spencer were doing, he knew his social status was golden and there was jealousy running in the air because of Logan. God only knew what the rumor mill was spitting out about them, at least Logan was a good sport and just held her head high.

"Hey Logan!" A pretty dark headed girl waved her arms in the air like a maniac, she was holding a table down for them, Tyler faltered in his steps and jerked Logan back.

"I thought you said she was at the dancing studio!" Tyler was sweating and dragged a hand down his nervous face, Logan sheepishly fluttered her eyelashes at him and led him to the table with the pretty girl. "Hey Lauren what's up?" Logan sat down and Tyler continued standing like a fool, she tugged him down and with a plop he landed between the two girls.

"Oh nothing, just waiting for you to get your lazy butt down here. What's shaking Simms?" Lauren focused her warm chocolate eyes on him and it thrilled her to see him squirm, it was kind of endearing to see how he blushed but damn the boy was fine. She leaned towards him, giving him a peek down her shirt, " I-I-I'm eating…wow..nice…pink." he stared dumfounded and Lauren loved torturing him." What's nice Tyler?" Logan frowned at her and elbowed Tyler in the ribs trying to snap him out of it.

"Lauren please don't corrupt my friend and Tyler please don't act like a thirteen year old that saw his first boobs!" Logan left them there blushing like crazy and decided to go get her lunch and eat it in peace in one of the common rooms.

Logan made her way down the hall and two left turns later, she as in the north common room, it was one of the most quiet ones since it the TV didn't have satellite, just a DVD player. She set her lunch of meat loaf with mashed potatoes, salad and a banana down on the table and went over to the shelf that had all the DVDs and picked out her favorite, She's The Man. She settled down on the comfortable worn out couch and ate her lunch in peace, she was in getting to the middle of the movie when giggling, moaning and panting made her ears perk up and interrupted her movie. All of a sudden there was Kira and Aaron groping and playing tongue hockey appear in the doorway and continued her way without even noticing her.

"Hey there's someone in the room!" they ignored her and continued making their way to the couch, the couch she was on and bam Kira fell on her with Aaron on top.

Logan shrieked to the top of her lungs and shoved them off, they crashed to the floor laughing.

"I was wondering when you were gonna do something!" Kira laughed along with Aaron as they got up and sat next to her on the couch. Aaron stole the remote and skipped the movie to the last scene." Hey buttface I wanted to watch the complete movie!" she thumped him on the forehead, he just swatted her hands, Kira just told them to knock it off.

" So little Red tell us how your day went?" Aaron wrapped an arm around her shoulders and tugged on her red hair as he propped his feet on the little coffee table.

"Well I so totally aced my quiz on chemistry with flying skittle colors, ah not, I didn't understand any of the questions at all. I had practice this morning at 4:30, hmm, let me see… I got mowed down by Parry, oh and I left Lauren to devour Simms in the cafeteria. That was my day."

Kira's eyes narrowed," What do you mean you got mowed down by Parry?" Logan felt Aaron's arm tense around her shoulders, but he hadn't snapped just yet…that was a good sign right?

"I guess he was in a rush to get somewhere or something and I was rushing to get to my room and we crashed into each other outside and that was all." Aaron didn't say anything and Kira let it drop.

Logan didn't need to add anymore fuel to the fire that burned between Aaron's friends and the Sons, she really didn't even know why; it had been like that ever since she had come in as the new girl back in December. It was February already and so far she had managed to be friends with Aaron, Kira, Reid and Tyler without much incident.

The bell rang signaling them to get to their last two classes of the day, the three friends departed separately, Logan headed to her dance class not worried that she wasn't in uniform anymore because she had to be in workout clothes that she had stored in the changing rooms. She started sprinting down the hall when the warning bell rang, BAM, she was knocked down once again.

" Do you not see where you are going? Like ever?" Logan had had, she was becoming too accustom with the floor. She glared from her place on the floor to see Pogue Parry standing over her with a shit eating grin.

He tried helping her up but she just swatted his hands away." You just really need to stop following me." Logan just threw him a disdainful look and picked herself up, she tried walking past him but he stepped in her way, she tried again and he did it again.

" Get out of my way buttface!" he laughed as he hear her funny insult but he let her be and stepped out of her way.

He watched her leave with mirth in his eyes. Pogue hadn't stopped thinking about her all through lunch, he had searched the cafeteria but didn't catch sight of her stormy grey eyes or fiery red hair. She had something that called out to him, she was just…damn he didn't even know.

Logan quickly changed and timidly walked in the dance studio, the teacher didn't say anything but her eyes burned Logan who just scampered to her place.

Logan lunged, stretched jumped and twirled. She loved dancing, her parents had her in private lessons since she was three years old it was what she was the only thing she knew she was beyond good at. Dancing was the only thing she had left.

Her parents what a joke, had divorced when she was five and had dumped her with various nannies over the years, the only constant had been dancing and she loved it with a passion. Maybe it was a bit unhealthy but oh well who was going to tell her otherwise? Nobody.

"Tunney where in heaven sakes have you been?" Madame Bowen's voice screeched over the studio as Kate Tunney waltzed into the studio, she sashayed to her spot on the bar not responding and merely joined in the routine as if she was not forty-five minutes late.

Madam Bowen fumed and the girls could practically see smoke coming out of her ears." Very well Tunney you are no longer in next week's recital, you will be understudy and Logan West is the new lead." A pin drop could be heard, Logan stood still with her jaw on the floor, Kate squawked and hissed at her.

"WHAT! What are you talking about? She can't have my part!" Madame Bowen banged her cane on the floor to hush the whispering girls.

"You heard me Tunney, if you cared so much about your dancing you wouldn't be so flippant about your punctuality. My decision is final and don't look at me with that expression you look like one of those horrible toads." She dismissed Kate, clapped once, twice and the music started once again.

Logan was giddy with excitement; she had the lead, the mothafucking lead in the recital! She pushed extra hard as the class continued and didn't even bother looking at Kate to know the girl was furious, Logan could feel the heat waves of hate rolling off of her.

With class dismissed she rushed to her dorm to change back into her uniform, man she really needed to get her schedule changed, and rushed to her last class which was AP English that she shared with Lauren.

Logan got there a bit out of breath and headed to the back, where Lauren was with Kira." Omg you guess will never guess what happened!" she had startled the two girls who look at her with wide eyes." I'm in the lead for the dance recital next week!" the girls squealed and engulfed her in a big bear hug.

"Please settle down ladies." Mr. Novinski bellowed once he entered the room. The three girls silently apologized and took their respective seats. Nothing could ruin Logan's mood at all

She waited the hour and a half until class was done so they could rush to her room and discuss her good fortune.

As they settled on Lauren's bed the bombarded her with question.

"What happened with Kate?"

"Did a bus hit her? Please tell me it did!"

"Omg what if she tries to smother you in your sleep?"

Logan just shooke her head at all their questions and started to answer them," Well Madame Bowen has just been sick of Kate coming in late so no a bus didn't hit her Kira and with her smothering in my sleep, we should lock the door at night Lauren."

Lauren got up and looked at them wiggling her eyebrows," I think we should celebrate! We all know the only good place to get all fucked is Nicky's!"

Kira's eyes lit up," Yes Logan let's go, pleeease." Logan held her arms up in defeat, she couldn't win anything against the two of them.

"Fine! But I'm not slutting it up like you guys." She dodged their pillows and made her way around the room gathering her stuff to go take a shower.

The water relaxed her tired tense muscles, she bathed peacefully but it was soon interrupted when a group of giggling girls entered the shower room.

" I swear she completely conned her way in to getting the lead, MY lead part." Oh great Kate was here, Logan finished showering and got out," Maybe I got the part because I'm good enough to replace, maybe even better."

Logan stalked out of there not waiting to let Kate form some sort of insult to retaliate. She didn't even try to finish dressing in the shower room, she rather do it in her dorm without having to worry about watching her back from Kate.

A wolfish whistle made her turn to her left and there was the devil itself, Reid Garwin, a smile lit up her. "Where you going Ms. West all wet and undressed?" his eyes took her in, Logan wrapped her towel around her a little bit tighter, better be the most prepared, she really didn't feel like accidently giving Reid some sort of peek show.

"Heading to my room duh!" he rolled his eyes at her.

"How about after you are dressed and not so tempting, you wanna go to Nicky's?"

"I'm actually going there with my girls, how about we just meet you and Tyler there?"

"That sounds great! See you then." He hugged her and gave her a small peck on the cheek. As she was walking away he gave her a light pat on the ass. Man he loved watching her walk away.

Kira doesn't know that Aaron is running around with Kate! Ooooh DRAMA! Read and review peeps! Pretty Please!
