Oh my gosh picking a story for this theme was super hard. First of all I had no idea what light was supposed to be. Then I remembered I studied light in science class in the last couple weeks of school so I tried that but then I thought that'd be boring then I thought that maybe one of the guys should weigh less than they should therefore being "light" but then I came up with this and I loved the idea.

Theme 3: Light


Logan was sleeping peacefully in his bed room almost completely lost in dream land, until Carlos walked into the room and turned on the main light. Logan quickly woke up slightly startled. "Oops sorry did I wake you up?" Carlos asked.

"Yes." Logan said too tired to use sarcasm. He looked at the clock on his nightstand. "What are you doing up at one in the morning anyway?" he asked.

"Me and James were watching TV." Carlos said.

Logan groaned and pulled the covers over his head. "What did I tell you about turning on the light when I'm sleeping?" Logan asked.

"You told me not to do it." Carlos said sheepishly. Logan had lectured Carlos time and time again about how light a sleeper he was and to not turn on the lights in their room because he couldn't sleep when they were on, even the tiniest bit of light woke him up, and after they were off he couldn't get back to sleep. It was affecting is grades and performance in the studio.

"Yeah so turn it off and go to sleep." Logan said from under the sheets. Carlos turned them off and slowly walked to his bed trying not to stumble on the things he left on the floor.

"Night." Carlos said. Logan murmured something and turned over.


The next night Carlos turned on their lights again while Logan was sleeping. Logan sat up in his bed and turned towards him. "Carlos." He said "What did I tell you last night?"

"To not turn on the big light." Carlos said.

"Yeah. So why did you do it?"

"Because I didn't think you'd wake up." Carlos said.

"Why would this time be any different from last night Carlos? I didn't just become a heavier sleeper in the past 24 hours." Logan said. Carlos shrugged. "Stop turning on that light at night and let. Me. Sleep." Logan said harshly and put his head back on his pillow

"Sorry." Carlos said apologetically and turned off the light and went back to his bed.


The next night Logan woke up at 3 in the morning. The main light wasn't on but the door was wide open and the hall light was beaming right in his face. Logan, slowly and tiredly, got up from his bed and violently shut the door causing a loud SLAM.

Carlos shot up in bed and gasped deeply and asked "Who's there?" nervously. He looked in the dark and tried to see what was going on.

"It's just me." Logan said "Why'd you leave the light on?" he asked.

"I didn't." Carlos said.

"Leaving the hall light on and the door open is the same thing!" Logan exclaimed.

"You said nothing about the hall light." Carlos said.

"Carlos if you just need to see where you're going them clean up the room and use a flashlight." Logan said.

"But tha-"

"Carlos just go back to bed. I'm not in the mood to hear about it." Logan said than flopped back in his bed.


The next night Logan convinced Carlos to use a flashlight if he needed to see where he was going, but sadly even that didn't keep Carlos from leaving it on. Logan woke up in the middle of the night once again to see that the flashlight was turned on by Carlos's bed side.

"Carlos!" he whispered loudly. Carlos didn't wake up so Logan got out of his bed and shook Carlos viciously.

"What? What? What?" Carlos asked.

"Carlos leaving a flashlight on is still leaving lights on!" Logan scolded "You use the flashlight to see and then turn it off. If you leave it on all night not only does it waste the battery but it also WAKES ME UP!" Logan was in a really bad mood. In just that week the only got only a little over eight hours of sleep. He was sick of waking up in the middle of the night and losing precious sleep because he couldn't get back to sleep.

"Sorry." Carlos said.

"Carlos you've been saying that every night this week and you continue to keep lights on! I want you to stop it!" Logan said.

"But sleeping in the dark feels weird." Carlos quickly said.

"What?" Logan asked.

"Sleeping in the dark is weird." Carlos repeated.

"Carlos that's how you sleep!" Logan yelled. Then James and Kendall walked into their room looking extremely tired and irritated.

"Why are you guys yelling?" they asked.

"Carlos never turns off lights at night and I'm tired of it!" Logan yelled.

"Why don't you turn off lights dude?" Kendall asked.

Carlos opened his mouth to talk but Logan beat him to it "He says sleeping in the dark is weird."

"Carlos, that's how you sleep." James said.

"I just don't like sleeping in the dark alright." Carlos confessed.

"Can't you two come to a solution without fighting so we can all get back to sleep?" Kendall asked tiredly.

"Yeah Carlos can stop turning lights on." Logan said.

"Or maybe we can switch rooms." James suggested. The other three guys looked at him. "I'm a pretty heavy sleeper. Carlos and Kendall can switch rooms. So then Logan will be able to sleep in the dark and Carlos can leave lights on as much as he wants."

"That's smart." Kendall said "What do you guys think?" he asked Logan and Carlos.

"I'm fine with it." Carlos said.

"As long as I get some sleep, I'm all for it." Logan said.

"Okay so Carlos can sleep in Kendall's bed tonight then we'll move his stuff tomorrow" James said.

"Sounds good." Carlos said then got out of bed. Both James and Carlos left the room and Kendall turned off the flashlight and slept in Carlos's bed that night.


The next morning after breakfast James and Logan were helping Carlos and Kendall move their things. When Logan was helping Carlos clean everything up when they were done Kendall and James were both making Kendall's new bed. "That was a smart idea you had last night." Kendall admitted to James.

"What idea?" James asked.

"This idea. You said Carlos and me should switch rooms so everyone can get some more sleep remember?"

"I said that?" James asked.

"Yeah."

"Oh I must've been tired." James said. They both laughed and continued to straighten up. That night Carlos was able to leave the lights on and him and James both slept soundly and Logan was able to sleep in pitch darkness and him and Kendall also slept well. All four of them got eight hours of sleep at least.


A/N: I didn't like that ending but other than that I luved that. I know exactly how Logan feels in this cuz I have to share a room with my sis and she leaves lights on, I don't know why, and I can't sleep. The only difference is that my sister isn't cute when she does it. IT'S A FREAKIN PAIN IN THE BUTT!
