Author's Note: Thank you if have chosen to read this part of the story following the Pre-Face. Hope you enjoy this part of the story. Review if you feel it necessary! Also has anyone seen pictures of Logan lately, I think he has gotten a bit chunky, but I don't care, he's still Logan.

"Logan! Wake up now!" Kendall shouted.

Logan eyes fluttered open and his brain instantly processed what he said.

Logan got and grumbled to himself about what a stupid day it would be since they had to perform in front of Griffin today for their new song, "Eyes in the Night Sky." (Not a real BTR song just made it up.)

They had been working hard for the last two weeks in getting the chorography right, but since Logan was such a terrible dancer it took them longer than it should have, something that reminded himself.

He did not have time to eat breakfast; he rarely does anyway, so they left on the spot.

The car ride was mostly silent as they were all focused in trying to impress Griffin once again.

They had done this a thousand times and they knew everything that they should know about the dance, but it still needed to be perfect.

They arrived and Gustavo had a white suit on and Kelly was wearing something nicer than she usually wore as they both had to get dressed up for the occasion.

The boys got into the dance studio, while Griffin and his team were watching evaluating everything that they were doing.

The boys got into their formation and music began.

They started off strong and executed all the moves perfectly as they had been practicing this everyday.

However, Logan knew that the harder part had yet to come.

He would have to do a unique back flip with James.

Mr. X had been thinking of new moves for them and he decided that they should try a move that makes them stand out.

James and Logan would run at each other and using each other's feet would perform their own backflips.

The move was risky, but they had done it before, so Mr. X allowed it in the routine.

The move was next and Logan tried to prepare himself for this move the best he could, but it would not go as planned.

He and James were supposed to hit each other's feet three times and then they would use that momentum to perform the backflips.

They started running and then got the first three feet moves done, which sounds like it should be over, but Logan attempted a fourth for some reason and that was disastrous as it caused him to fall.

He hit the floor hard on his back just as the dance ended, which did not impress Griffin.

"No concert Gustavo, just record the album instead, they are obviously not ready to go on tour yet." Griffin said as he left disappointed in the poor results.

"Just go home guys." Kelly said sadly as she tried to contain Gustavo's rage.

The guys all got in the car and James was the first one to blow up.

"Seriously Logan? We've done that a million times and you had to mess it up. Good, job now we can't go on tour until the album is finished which will take like another two months." James told Logan bitterly.

"James, I think he knows what he did wrong, it's best not to be in his face about it." Kendall replied.

"Well he obviously can't get it right Kendall, so we have to tell him because he's too stupid to figure it out on his own." James shot back.

"James, just let it go we can just record the album, which is what we should have focused on in the first place. A tour can wait." Carlos said.

"No, a tour is what is going to make this band, and I don't think that we can get any better with Logan in the band." James said still fuming over the screw up at the dance studio.

"James, you know that's not true." Kendall said back calmly as he drove the car.

"Yes it is Kendall. He always screws up and he never learns and then we just let it go like always. I'm so god damn tired of it, he needs to take responsibility for what he sucks at and move on." James states.

"James, he does not suck." Carlos says back.

"No Carlos, he does suck." James replies.

"I think we should just stop before this gets any worse, James, you've made your point." Kendall says wanting to end the ranting.

"Whatever." James says simply.

The boys get to the Palm Woods and are quiet as they walk to the apartment.

"How did the dance thing go boys?" Mrs. Knight asked.

"Terrible." James replied as he entered the apartment.

"What went wrong?" Mrs. Knight questioned in response.

"Logan, that's what went wrong." James said.

"I'm sure that he didn't mean to." Mrs. Knight said back.

"He's too much on an idiot to mean to." James said.

"That is being mean you know?" Katie asked him.

"I don't care, he always messes up and gets away with it. I'm done with this kind of crap, he has to learn." James said back. "Learn what?" Katie retorts.

"That he's not immune." James replies.

"He's not 'immune', he's never been." Katie says referring to Logan's past.

"Yeah that doesn't matter now. Maybe if he dropped a few pounds he could actually do a backflip." James said as he walks away.

Everyone was silent, as they did not know what to say.

It was quite well known to everyone in the room that Logan was not in the best shape he's been in the last few years.

Ever since they stopped doing hockey Logan had gotten in worse and worse shape as the days progressed. He just didn't really care about it since he was so focused on the mental aspect of impressing people.

Now he realized that he had to have both the mental and the physical to impress people.

Logan looked down at himself and realized that he was fat, he never really noticed until now.

Logan just sighed and went to his room to sulk as usual. No one followed him.
