DISCLAIMER:I do not own anything related to Glee or 'Dalton' by CP Coulter

Author's Note: Hello everyone, here's the next chapter. Sorry that it's so short, I'm actually very embarrassed that it isn't even 1000 words... Thank you to everybody who's taken time to read this and I hope you'll continue!


CHAPTER 2

I managed to avoid both Kelvin and Logan, so called John, for the rest of the night and didn't even think about going to the after-party. The premiere had been spectacular, everyone had loved it. Except for me. Logan had ruined the whole fucking thing for me. My mind was on him the entire time and I couldn't think of anything other than why the hell he was with Kelvin, why he was going by John all of a sudden, how they had met and why Logan had pretended like we didn't know each other. Did he really hate me that much? Did I repulse him? Had I scarred him for life with my confession? The last few days I had been at Dalton were a blur of tears and regrets so I wasn't even sure of the last thing I had said to him or he had said to me.

I was prepared to promise myself never to speak to Logan or even Kelvin after the night of the premiere but my manager literally forced me into a waiting car which took me to some Hollywood party. The paparazzi were there, obviously having been tipped off by the hosts of the party.

The party included the same type of fake extravagance which I detested and I was wondering how much longer I would have to stay there while getting another drink when someone appeared next to me and started to speak.

"Hey.", the man next to me, after asking for a beer from the man behind the bar, began.

I looked up in surprise and found none other but Logan fucking Wright there. Without Kelvin by his side I wondered whether he would bother keeping up his charade.

"What are you doing here Logan?". I didn't even know what I meant by that question myself. Did I mean here at the party or here in LA with Kelvin?

"I can't believe you guessed my second name like that. Not many people know it, not even Kelvin.", he gave a chuckle. Clearly he was still going to pretend like we were strangers, "Have you been stalking me?", his voice was still light and teasing but I figured that this was the perfect opportunity to really get to the bottom of this. Keeping my voice light as well, I went along with his little act, keeping a close eye on his face for hints of the old Logan, "Stalking? No, I don't stalk people. I've had a stalker before though. His name was Adam, he was a pretty big pyscho and managed to hurt a lot of my friends. My people managed to keep it out of the media but maybe you knew about it? It all went down at my old school, Dalton Academy. Hey, where did you go to school?".

He took a drink of his beer but somehow kept his face suitably neutral, just like he really didn't know anything. Hell, he was a really good actor.

"Shit, that sounds serious. Did you get hurt?", he smoothly changed the topic and avoided the question.

"Yeah, I was in the hospital for a couple of days. More emotional damage really.".

"God that must have been awful.".

Why was he doing this to me? Why didn't he want to admit that he knew me? "Yeah, a lot of shit went down during this huge fire when Adam held me and my friends hostage. He forced me to confess my love for my best friend. His name was Logan. That's funny right? He has the same name as you.", now what was he going to do, huh?

"My name's not Logan. It's John, reme-"

"And he looked just like you too.", I cut Logan off, I wanted answers and I was so done playing these stupid pretend games with him.

"Probably just a coincidenc-"

"And both of you have the name John Logan Wright III. So what I'm really confused about it why you decided to act like you don't know me, Logan?", I finally got down to the real question. Logan looked furious and flustered by this point and I could see him beginning to lose his temper rapidly just like when we had been at school, "For fuck's sake, listen Julian, it's a long story and- I just can't- don't do this now okay?".

"Don't do what now?", Kelvin asked, walking up to us with an intrigued look on his face.

"Nothing, we were just chatting, weren't we, John?", I answered serenely. It felt so good to have the upper hand.

Logan took a quick calming breath and placed a smile on his face before sliding an arm around Kelvin and giving him a small kiss on the cheek, "Yeah, I was just about to come and find you.".

Before Kelvin could answer I put down my half-finished drink and said to them, "I'm leaving now anyway so, see you guys.".

Kelvin looked at me with surprise, "Really? Already? You sure you don't want to stay?", he had a right to look slightly confused, I was usually never one to leave a party early.

"Yeah, I'm tired and I should probably just go and catch up on my sleep. Bye Logan, nice to see you again.", I added before walking away hearing Kelvin ask Logan, "Why does he call you Logan?".

And Logan answered while I felt his eyes boring into the back of my head, "I guess because he said I reminded him of someone named Logan.".

I left the party with a small smile on my face. Yeah, Logan was never one for keeping secrets from me before and I was sure as hell going to get to the bottom of this one.
