"Hey! You're playing with my delirium
And the longer I wait the harder I'm gonna fall
Stop! Playing with my delirium
Coz I'm outta my head and outta my self control."

Ladyhawke- My Delirium

After about an hour of just messing around and playing pranks on each other in room 2J, which was really bonding time where I got to find out a lot more about each of the guys and got to know their personalities a little more. We had all finally settled down on the orange couches in front of the flat screen, attempting to choose a movie to watch, popcorn and other sweets in plastic bowls. I was sandwiched between James and Logan, Carlos sitting next to Logan and Kendall crouching down over to the left of the other couch, picking out a movie.

"Can we watch a happy movie like Marley and Me?" James asked after several suggestions of a number of horror movies.

I hated horror movies, I hated to admit it. I get too fucking scared of films, especially with the whole paranoia shit, with the ghosts and... It's just fucking freaky!

They fucking scared the life out of me, I spend weeks after I've seen the movie imagining how I could die entailing how the characters died on the horror.

"The dog dies in Marley and Me, jackass." Logan told James, James just decided to smack the back of Logan's head which progressed to another fight, though with me in the middle.

Eventually when I had managed to break it up, well really join in, smacking the both of them until they would stop acting like fucking five year olds.

By this time Kendall had chosen a movie and put it in the DVD player, not telling any of us what he had gotten.

"What film did you choose?" I asked Kendall, he just grinned at all of us as the opening credits came up.

Oh, fucking great.

"Paranormal Activity?" James asked, mine and his expressions mirroring each other... scared out of our minds.

"Something wrong Echo? You look scared." Kendall pointed out, giving me a knowing grin; I coughed, straightening out my face, attempting to put my best smile on.

"Pssh, me, scared? Yeah fucking right. I don't get scared of prissy horror movies..." I said rather unconvincingly, cringing slightly as the movie started to play.

Throughout the whole fucking film if only one slightly scary thing happened, me and James were screaming in a really high pitched voice, biting our nails and trying not to watch the movie, I had long abandoned any of the foods on the coffee table, Logan seemed fine, saying all this scientific shit about how it couldn't be true, Kendall was just laughing at James' and mine reactions to the film while Carlos seemed to preoccupied with the popcorn to be that freaked out.

When the end of the film came up, proclaiming that the fucking woman who got possessed and killed her fiancé was still on the loose, well her 'whereabouts were unknown.' A million of thoughts conjured up in my over active brain about how I could be easily killed tonight by some evil demon ghost, pulling me out of wherever I slept and dragging me down the hall, to my ultimate death.

James and I were literally holding onto each other for dear life, our cheeks pressed together, my hands gripping his biceps and his to mine, staring with wide, frightened eyes at the screen, not moving an inch when everyone else had gotten up, stretching.

"That was a shit film; there is no way that that could ever scientifically be proven." Logan pointed out, grabbing to empty bowls off the coffee table and putting them in the dishwasher in the kitchen as Carlos decided to put the movie away.

"So, Echo, James, you two don't seem to be bricking it at all right now." James and I jumped apart, trying to prove to Kendall that we were fine.

"Pssh, were fine." James said, attempting at a smile, fixing his hair as he did.

"Totally." I failed to assure anyone that we actually were fine.

"So what are the sleeping arrangements tonight?" Logan asked.

"She can sleep with me." Kendall offered nothing but false innocence in his voice.

"That's a fucking scarier thought then the movie." I deadpanned, rolling my eyes at Kendall and folding my arms.

"You two do whatever, I'm going to bed." Carlos yawned, taking off his helmet and stretching, James jumped up, asking Carlos to check out his bedroom for monsters, retiring with Carlos.

"I could sleep on the sofa in here." I offered they seemed comfortable enough; it wouldn't hurt sleep on them.

"I'm not a douche bag you know, there is no way I'm letting our guest, let alone a girl sleep on the freakin couch. I'll take the couch; you can sleep in my rom." I was taken aback by Kendall's kindness and not by his perverted attitude for pretty much the first time since I had met him.

"Are you sure? I mean it's no hassle for-" I started but was cut off by Kendall's insisting voice.

"No, it's fine, let's go and sort you out for tonight." Kendall said, completely serious, smiling lightly at my shocked face, Logan just shrugged, saying his goodnights to us and going into his room, closing the door behind him as Kendall and I ventured into his room.

Kendall folded back the dark covers of his king-sized bed, offering it open to me as I took my converses off, dropping them next to the door, hesitantly walking over to him, I was obviously anxious, convinced he was going to do something.

"Chill Echo, I'm not gonna do anything, just sleep, I'll see you tomorrow." Kendall said, saying his goodnights to me and walking out of the room casually.

Well that was completely unexpected of him.

My thoughts went on as I took my phone out of the jogging pant pockets, placing it on Kendall's night stand, but checking the time before I curled up in his bed- 11:30pm. Kendall's bed was more that comfy, his thick sheets completely shielding me from the cold in the room.

Maybe this week won't be that freakin bad after all.

I woke up, sitting bolt right up bed gasping for breath. What a freakin fucking surprise.

I had a fucking pathetic nightmare about ghosts and demons attempting to kill me.

A light sheen of sweat was covering my face, I groaned loudly, swinging out of the bed, checking the time on my phone as I did. 4am.

Just 5 hours of sleep. Not good.

I got out of bed, stretching slightly as I did, tip toeing out of Kendall's room and into the pitch black hallway, hoping water or something would calm me down.

I couldn't see a fucking thing in the apartment, not knowing where the light switches were for anything didn't really help. All I could was feel around, I didn't feel anything for a while. Well then, looks like I'll be fine if I take just normal but small steps. I told myself sternly, scolding at how hesitant I was being. I took a few steps forward, still fine, so I started to walk normally; oblivious to what was in front of me until it was obviously, too late. I had walked into the orange couch, toppling over it, over the sleeping Kendall and landing on my ass on the floor, in between the couch and the coffee table. Though me being me, I tried to hold onto Kendall to keep myself up, not realising it was Kendall until it was too late, pulling the sleeping Caterpillar on top of me, knocking the wind out of me.

"What the... Echo?" Came the half asleep voice of Kendall who was now tangled in the make shift blanket that was supposed to be a quilt. His voice was deep and slightly husky from sleep, though I could see the bright green eyes even in the dark.

"...This is all a dream?" I said awkwardly; when I could finally breathe again as Kendall rolled off of me, getting up and throwing the blanket back on the couch.

"What the fuck are you doing?" He asked, chuckling slightly, the dark slit house of him being able to recognise, now standing up as sliver of streams of light from the moon outside came from the blinds on the windows above the couch.

"I needed a drink... couldn't see where I was going." I concluded, taking the offering hand Kendall gave me, pulling me up to stand next to him.

"And? I have a feeling you're not telling me something." Kendall gave me an amused look, smiling as my attempt of lying at him failed miserably.

"Pssh! I'm hurt Kendall! Freakin hurt that you don't trust me when I say that I needed an innocent glass of water." Using terrible hand gestures and not meeting his jade coloured eyes.

"You got scared didn't you?" His grin grew when I wrinkled my nose up, shaking my head, then deciding that I couldn't lie to save my live I huffed and plopped down on the couch, defiantly.

"It's not that I get scared..." I said, making up excuses as Kendall's black figure walked over to the kitchen, easily dodging things knowing where they are, getting a glass and filling it with water, bringing it back over and handing it to me.

"Freaked out?" Kendall offered as I drank the water, feeling the cool liquid seep down my throat calmed me.

"You could say that." I muttered, putting the glass on the table, turning to Kendall. "I'm sorry about kinda raping you." I gave him a cheesy smile as he chuckled.

"Can't rape the willing." Kendall winked at me and I groaned, rolling my eyes, seriously... the moment when I thought he was just a nice normal guy and not perverted as I had judged him to be.

"In your dreams big boy." I patted his shoulder, getting up to go back to bed.

"It was." Was all I heard as I walked back into Kendall's room and fell back onto the bed, grudgingly admitting to myself that Kendall had calmed me down and assured me I would be fine with just his body language and his smiles.

I was turning into a fucking sap.

"Echo, Echo. Wake-up, I know my beds freaking comfortable but you need to get up if you want to get your own clothes." I groaned, knowing it was Kendall's voice telling me to get up so I buried my head into the pillows which reeked of his scent. "Echo, get up." I blindly reached out my hand, it touched his face, I kept tapping his nose. "What the fuck are you doing?"

"Looking for your freakin snooze button." I grumbled, which caused Kendall to chuckle loudly, making me stuff my face into the pillow even more, getting used to his scent that was washed into the pillows.

"Fucking hell, you're the most stubborn girl I have ever met. Get up." I just moved my hand away from his face, dropping it back on the bed.

"Fuck you."

"Please do." My hand swiped out to hit him, but he had already seen it coming, I guessed he jumped back from the sound that reverted off of the oak flooring and the fact that he grabbed onto the duvet, pulling it away with him. I groaned, rolling over and sitting up, staring at a wolfy grin holding the comfy duvet covers I desperately wanted to cuddle back into, I reluctantly dragged myself up, walking over to my shoes and pulling them on.

"C'mon then dipshit. The quicker I get out of your tainted clothes the better." I grumbled, grabbing my keys and mobile off of the counter as Kendall threw the duvet back onto the bed, walking with me out of his room into the destitute living room and kitchen, the guys obviously must be still asleep, don't blame them, it's only 9am.

I swung the door open, being in a crabby mood when I've only just gotten up in a harsh way was completely normal for me. I ignored the chuckle that came from Kendall as I did open the door, though there was a persistent grin on his face, even when we got out of the elevators and walked out of the lobby.

"What are you grinning for?" I scowled at him, really not in the mood for any of his pathetic games at this time in the morning.

"Have you looked in the mirror yet?" Kendall just asked simply as I pressed the button on my car keys, opening the driver door and getting in, closing it and checking what I looked like in the rear view mirror as Kendall walked around the car. I groaned loudly.

I looked like a fucking mess. My hair looked like a fucking bird nest had spawned on it and my make-up around my eyes made me look like I had been in a fucking bar brawl.

Kendall continued to tease me on the way to my apartment, calling me a panda which caused me to slap him when we had stopped at a red light, which only made him laugh.

Such a fucking joker wasn't he.

I sighed in relief as I parked the car, having survived the car ride, even when I swerved accidently multiple times because Kendall and I got into a bitch fight. I killed the engine quickly, jumping out of the car rapidly, literally running to our door, not even bothering to look behind me to see if Kendall was following or not. When I unlocked the door I left it open, knowing I wasn't going to be long, power walking down the familiar narrow hallway to my room which was sparsely decorated, though closing the door behind me, stopping Kendall from getting any sneak peeks. I changed into a grey strapless playsuit, it was fitted and enhanced my curves that had a safari snakeskin –though plain grey- print to it which then had a simple belt at the hips that had the same print, pockets and rolled up legs, though it was just the style, the playsuit quite short. (A/N: Link on my profile if you want to see it ) Well, it was really hot today, I then grabbed some black all star converses and then went to work on the bird nest and panda eyes.

Within half an hour my hair was curled into loose, messy ringlets that were backcombed to give it the behead animal look with just simple eyeliner, mascara and lip gloss on. I smiled slightly to myself in the mirror; stuffing my phone and keys in the playsuit pockets, getting out a big duffel bag and beginning to pack the necessities such as clothes, toothbrush, make-up and straightners.

I then went on into Asha's room, packing her her own bag then walking into the lounge where Kendall was watching himself on Nick Tunes.

"Have you always been this vain?" I asked, dropping the duffel bags on the floor from the lounge doorway, folding my arms, my lips twitching. Kendall looked at me, seeing I had freshened up, sizing me up, making no attempt to hide it, turning off the TV and standing up in his black skinny jeans and blue/ dark blue/ white chequered farmer shirt that was buttoned up.

"I'm not vain." Kendall smirked, walking over to me and picking up both the duffel bags in a surprisingly nice gesture, walking out of my apartment door without turning back. I rolled my eyes and followed after him, quickly locking the apartment door and running to catch up with him.

"I can carry them myself you know." I said as we walked out of the building and to where my car was parked. Kendall rolled his eyes this time.

"A thank you would have been nice." Kendall told me in a light tone as I unlocked the car, getting behind the wheel as Kendall placed the things in the passenger seat.

"Thanks bitch." I said giving him an overly exaggerated smile as we got back on the road again.

"Bitch?"

"Well yeah, you do have a girl's name." I quipped laughing at Kendall's reaction.

/

"For the last time, I don't want to be called Ken. And my name isn't a fucking girl's name." Kendall groaned as we walked down the second floor hallway to 2J. I was carrying my duffel and he was carrying Asha's.

I was quite shocked at what we saw when we opened the door.

Carlos, Logan and James all warming up in working out gear, standing behind a red tapped line as Asha and Katie stood next to some handmade trophy of some sort.

"Guys what the hell is going on?" Kendall asked, clearly confused. I motioned to Asha's duffel bag when her eyes caught mine ad Kendall and I both dropped them out of the way of the front door.

"The first person to race around the Palm Woods and ring the bell at the front desk wins the Palm Woods 500 invitational ultimate race classic." Carlos said helmet on with a huge smile on his face.

"And!" James said, raising his finger. "Super champion of the world."

"And!" Asha and Katie said in unison. "Wins the Palm Woods 500 world cup."

"It will be mine." This time Logan and Carlos said something in unison.

"No it's mine!"

"No mine!"

"Seriously, guys how old are you, 10?" Kendall asked sarcastically. Giving them all a look and then he just laughed. "Count me in." He said, aligning next to the three guys.

"Me too." I said, walking over to the guys.

"Oh, no, no, no." Kendall said, putting his hand out as I stop sign, I arched my eyebrow and folded my arms.

I was a pretty quick runner, this seemed like fun.

"Uh, yeah. I'm running this, what's wrong Ken, scared you're gonna get beat by a girl?" I joked at him, seeing his fighting spirit and competiveness show. He seemed to really hate the name Ken which only made it even more enjoyable.

"Bring it on baby." Baby. Urgh. I'm not anyone's baby. Bastard. I nodded, giving him a heated stare and lining up next to Logan who was squabbling with Carlos.

"On your marks. We all crouched behind the red tape.

"Get set." Asha smiled at me and Kendall, her favourites to win.

"GO!" They both screamed out. Everyone rushed forward, me ending up second out of the door, James hot on my heels as I ran behind Kendall, following him as we all sprinted down the stairs to run around the back way.

The guys kept shouting at each other as we all ploughed outside, running down the ramp, Carlos attempting to jump over it but tripping up.

James pulled up a bit as we started to dodge the dustbins, me being a smaller body mass enabling me to catch up to Kendall, my eyes went wide when I saw a man innocently walking to the last dustbin as I pushed into Kendall, accidently causing the dustbin and the guy to fall over.

"Sorry!" I called back feebly as James stormed passed me and Kendall, taking the lead a little as I passed Kendal, giving him the finger as I went. We went through another part of the lobby when Kendall started snickering when he drove past me, everyone pretty much just one huge clump as we all squashed through the pool door, attempting to push one another in the pool when Logan and Carlos started to pull in front just ever so slightly as we all bombed into the lobby, the fat guy behind the desk seeing us, and ducking under the counter as we all jumped to touch the bell, sliding over the counter and falling in a heap on the over side.

I ended up on top of everyone who was on the floor though being violently pushed off when they all jumped up, me jumping up a little late, pushing Kendall out of the way, everyone else had pretty much taken the brute of the fall but me.

Kendall had flowers in his mouth which he spat out, Logan was tangled in the phone cords, James had flowers under his headbands and Carlos had the P of Palm Woods on his helmet, we all stood anxiously staring at Katie and Asha to see who had won.

"It's Carlos!" They agreed, the rest of us groaned and pulled off whatever object was on us as Carlos threw off the P and jumped over the desk cheering and whooping, jumping up and down with the trophy.

Suddenly, I got pushed into Kendall as the bitter old guy pushed past me, broken glasses and broken pieces of laptop I think it was hanging from his neck, he looked furious, motioning to all of us he spoke.

"You are all going to pay for this!" There was an awkward silence.

Oh Shit...
