AN: This one took me a while because I have had a creative block since I keep forcing myself to write for my creative writing class.

Kendall's POV

I soon found out who Kensey and Bo were when we got to the pool. A blond girl in a green bikini walked right up to James with a frown, "You made me wait." This must have been the girl that James called 'dibs' on. That was just fine with me since I really didn't want to look at girls at the moment.

The boy who came up behind her was only a little bit taller. I figured it was Bo, but I had a completely different image in mind for him. I thought I would meet someone a bit more country. I didn't expect a...hipster. I think that would be the best word to describe how Bo looked. So I was probably not being fair by deciding what he was going to look like by just a name. It looked like he didn't change into swim trunks, so I was assuming that he was in the same thing he wore when he met Carlos and James. His hair was a short cut in the back, it only went to the nape of his neck, and he had side sweep bangs with a part off to the side. The bangs went down to about his lips on both sides. He must have put some kind of gel or mousse in his hair to get it shaggy like that. It went with the copper tone it had in the sun.

"She's lying. We've only been here for a minute or so," Bo had on a poker face. I didn't like when people gave a poker face, it didn't let me in on what they were thinking. So I was a bit hypocritical since I used the same expression with my friends all the time, especially now.

"That is still time that I was waiting," Kensey argued. It didn't matter how she put it, I knew James could get out of trouble easily.

"You're right. I said I would show you around and I kept you waiting." James was smooth with his words. He shook his head once to flip his hair out of his face. That one usually got the girls.

"How does showing her around mean we were going to the pool?" Logan asked, probably not realizing that James was trying to work his charm.

"Yeah, if we were showing them around then we could have at least done it with a bang! You know give them something to remember. Like with the swirly slide!" Carlos added. Now I could understand Carlos not getting that James was trying to get the girl, but he wouldn't have said anything if Logan hadn't opened his mouth.

I was in the middle of both of them and gently nudged each on in the side. That was all they needed to understand, which was good enough for me.

"Oh! James is trying to flirt with her! It makes sense to come to the pool now," Carlos said with a grin, but that disappeared as James brought his palm to his forehead. James' game was ruined.

Kensey didn't seem as phased as James though. "I know. He needs to try harder." She gave him a coy smile. So maybe his game wasn't completely ruined.

Since I no longer had to worry about James, I wanted to get to the point of this. We needed to help Gustavo stop the songwriter. I still agreed with Logan about how it would be so much easier to just give the songwriter a contract. "So what are you guys doing in LA?"

Kensey smiled, I could only guess that she liked the attention on herself. "Well I want to be an actress, which really shouldn't be too hard."

Bo turned away from her before rolling his eyes. I had to stop myself from chuckling. Carlos was not so lucky and ended up laughing a little. He got a dirty look from Kensey and stopped with his hands up in the air, like he was surrendering.

I turned to Bo, waiting for an answer from him. He looked like he was thinking it over before saying anything. "I'm trying to be a musician. Well I am a musician, I just need to get signed."

"Yeah and you said Kensey writes your songs," Carlos chimed in.

Bo bit down on his bottom lip. He looked a bit nervous, "Yeah..."

Kensey frowned and shook her head, "I don't write his songs."

"So you write your own songs?" Logan asked, probably trying to get to the bottom of the lie.

Bo shook his head, "No I don't. It's complicated. Kensey doesn't write my songs and I don't either." It really didn't sound complicated.

Before anyone could ask any questions, Kensey grabbed James' arm with a grin. "Come on. Let's go in the pool. That is why you're here, right?" I could already tell that James wasn't going to say no. It didn't look like Logan or Carlos were going to either.

Carlos had his shirt off in no time and was already jumping into the pool with a loud yell. Some people looked over, a little annoying, but everyone was use to Carlos' spontaneous personality by now. Logan groaned and walked over to retrieve the shirt from the concrete ground. He folded it over a chair before getting into the pool. (Everything had to be neat for our genius.) Carlos' mood was catchy and for a few moments my mood was actually uplifted enough for me to cannonball into the pool. Once my head was submerged, I could hear Jo and that feeling disappeared in an instant.

"Ah! Kendall! I'm so getting you back for that!"

Her giggled filled my ears as I surfaced the water. I desperately needed to get her out of my head.

"Hey Kendall, you okay?" Logan asked as he neared me.

I nodded and rubbed my nose. "Yeah, just got water up my nose," I lied. Logan bought it though as he drifted away.

James soon swam over with Kensey behind him, but there was no Bo.

I looked over on the sidelines and Bo sat at the edge of the pool. He really didn't look like he was going to come in anytime soon.

"Bo! You need to come in!" Kensey called from the middle of the pool.

As Bo shook his head I could see Carlos going over to Logan to talk to him. I had a bad feeling about that, but I didn't pay attention to them for long. "I don't have my swim trunks on."

James laughed at Bo's comment, "If only that stopped us." I couldn't count how many times we had jumped in this pool fully clothed just because we wanted to. Mr. Bitters didn't exactly like it, but there was no rule to stop us, yet.

The sound of someone getting out of the pool was quickly followed by Logan and Carlos sitting on both sides of Bo. Again, I did not have a good feeling about this.

"Yeah, the pool is no fun anyways," Carlos said and I knew that they were going to push Bo into the pool. "We'll just sit here with you." Bo gave them a confused look as Logan nodded and patted Bo on the back. Carlos' hand joined and they gave one hard shove and Bo fell into the pool.

James and Kensey may have joined in with small laughs of their own, but I knew better. When Bo hit the surface, both Carlos and Logan panicked at the angered look Bo had for them.

"Nice knowing you buddy," Carlos said as he jumped to his feet and disappeared. Logan let out a squeak before scrambling to his feet to follow Carlos.

Bo pulled himself out of the pool and pulled off the plaid shirt he had over his long sleeved shirt. He wrung it out and was grumbling to himself. I got out to see if he was alright since Kensey didn't really look concerned. She was too wrapped up in whatever James was saying.

"Sorry about that. Logan sometimes doesn't think when Carlos comes up with pranks like that. You okay?" I wanted to sound sincere, but with everything going on, my voice sounded hallow.

Bo seemed over it already and was walking back into the lobby. "I'm fine. They just surprised me. The better question is if you are alright. Which floor?" He entered the elevator and I followed right behind. I didn't want to go to the pool anyways, so this was the perfect excuse to escape.

I shrugged, it was too complicated to really get into on an elevator ride. "I've had better days. I don't know if I'm going back to my room yet or not." It was either that or I could ride the elevator back down and go for another walk.

Bo pushed the button for the third floor before saying anything. "I'm going to guess girl troubles. The one that moved to New Zealand?"

Was I that obvious? No I wasn't. Even if I was, he wouldn't know exactly where Jo had gone. "How did you know?"

Bo shrugged a bit, "James was talking about it when he helped with our suitcases. He was asking for my opinion. I told him that you just needed to find a distraction. Want to help me unpack? It's boring, but usually a good distraction."

When the doors opened, I followed Bo down the hall. "It isn't that bad when you have two people doing it."

Bo smirked, "It might be when I'm ordering you around. I want to get my studio set up and ready to go." He stopped when he got to 3L.

"You have room for a whole studio?" It might have been just because of the size of our apartment and how many people we had, but we only had enough room for bedrooms if I shared with Logan and Carlos shared with James.

When Bo opened the door to his apartment, I knew that the guys and I did end up with a bad deal when we got ours (before the make over). Suitcases were in the center of the room, but the condition of the furniture and the lack of stains anywhere was a good indication. "We got a three bedroom apartment so I could have one for my studio and Kensey could have one for her rehearsal space."

"What about your parents?" I asked and closed the door behind me.

Bo shrugged and went over to the suitcases before he responded, "They aren't here. They let us come on our own since this is our dream and not theirs'."

I couldn't believe that parents would let their kids come to LA on their own. "That's different."

"You can say it. It's weird and probably not the best idea they ever came up with." Bo opened a bag and grabbed some clothes from it, probably to change in. "You good or do you want something dry?"

"I could use a towel, but I don't know how anything of yours could fit me." It wasn't that I was out of shape or he was, but he just looked so small in stature.

Bo went digging in his bag and threw a pair of sweatpants to me. "I'm sure those will work. I'll go get your a towel." He went off into a door off the kitchen.

I changed out of my swim trunks and into the sweatpants. Then I took off my shirt and waited for Bo. "Hey, do you think you'll have a shirt?" I called as I went over to the door he disappeared in.

Bo came out with a towel and he was already changed. He stopped a moment before speaking. "That would be a miracle. I'm actually surprised the sweatpants fit."

I took the towel from him and ran it through my hair. "It's better then nothing."

Bo took my clothes from me, "I'll put them in the dryer. I promise they won't take too long. You know, if I bore you." He smiled easily. Everything he did was easy for him and it wasn't like he was trying to force me into anything. It was a nice change from my friends.

"I think boring would actually be good. I don't have to think much, you know?" I towel dried my hair while he went to put the clothes in the dryer.

"Spill it. I want to know about this girl." The easy-going thing Bo had going fell. He crossed his arms and his brows furrowed, waiting for answers.

I shrugged, it had been so long since I had really talked about Jo that I didn't know how to start. "I dated her for about a year and then she got a huge movie deal in New Zealand. In less than a week, she was gone."

Bo let out a groan and rolled his eyes. This made me mad and I could feel my lips press together in a tight line. "Look, I get that you're all upset about her, but you need to just get over her. It doesn't matter how you do it. I moved here to get away from my last relationship."

"You can't just get over something like that," I countered. If it was that easy, I would have done it ages ago. I don't like being like this.

"If you wanted to, you would. Look, I'm not trying to get on your, but depressing people are hard to be around. You might not thing you are down in the dumps, but your body language and how you say things comes across as that. It brings other people down."

"Then how did you get over your last girlfriend?" I was getting desperate.

"I found something to do and I wrote my music. I told myself that I wouldn't come to LA unless I was able to write three different songs in two weeks. I stopped thinking of my last relationship and wrote." In the heat of what was going on, Bo didn't even realize what he had said.

Now I had what I needed to tell the guys and Gustavo. I should have felt good that Gustavo wouldn't yell at us for a while, but I just wanted to know the secret of getting over Jo.

"Now that you have your thinking face on, you need to go and continue thinking. I'll still be here, looking for friends, when you finally see that life's worth living out. Just tell me when this gets better. I'll-" Bo didn't continue as he went shuffling in his bag, muttering to himself. I didn't know what was going on until he pulled out a notepad and started scribbling stuff down.

He had moved so fast that it took me a moment to catch up. "What about my clothes?"

Bo moved to the door as he continued writing. He opened it and tried to shoo me out. "I'll get them to you later. I'll pick up my pants then. Now hush, the creative process is at work!" He was rushing his words and only looked up once to see if I was leaving.

I walked out the door and wasn't able to even say good-bye before he slammed it shut. That was weird. At least I had something to tell the guys when they all got back.

Logan's POV

I scrambled after Carlos. I did not want to be the one left behind. There was a feeling in the back of my head that this Bo wouldn't be as mad as we thought, but I was not going to risk it. People could call me paranoid for it.

I lost track of Carlos, he was a lot faster than me. I was passing a corner when a hand reached out and pulled me to the left. It belonged to Carlos, which really wasn't surprising. "Took you long enough," he laughed.

I swallowed the lump that formed in my throat. "You're pretty fast." I never could keep up with Carlos when he was trying.

"No, you're just slow," Carlos said with a grin. He looked around the corner and sighed in relief.

I looked around the corner as well. I kind of felt like we were hiding because we had done something wrong and Mrs. Knight was after us. "I don't think he followed us. We really didn't do anything anyways."

Carlos pulled on my shirt so I could follow him. He was headed for the park, "Let's get some food. I'm hungry."

I laughed lightly, "You're always hungry." I followed him anyways to the corn dog stand. I liked corn dogs, jsut not as much as Carlos. I always wondered how he was even able to just keep eating them.

Carlos gave me a corn dog and had two in his other hand. He was just biting into it when his eyes widened, "Logan, look! It's a puppy!" He went over to a little puppy that was just walking on the grass.

The thing was really tiny. It was also really fluffy and mostly black. Its eyebrows, around its nose, and paws were a light, dirty blond. It's throat and chin were white.

Carlos handed me the corn dogs and picked up the dog. It fit easily in his palms, the thing was seriously that tiny. Carlos cradled the small dog and looked for a collar on him, "Logan, he doesn't have a collar or tags." He turned to me with big, dark brown eyes. It was like the puppy caught on and gave me the exact same look as well. "Can we keep him?"

I walked over to him and the puppy and looked at the little guy, "He still might have an owner and our lease doesn't allow pets."

The puppy whined and Carlos' eyes widened more. The pit of my stomach knotted up. They were both against me and I felt awful for even saying no in the first place. "We'll put up posters and if no one claims him, we'll have to hide him."

Carlos lifted the puppy up in the air with a wide grin and the knots in my stomach disappeared, "Hear that Boyd? I can keep you." The puppy let out a loud, high-pitched bark.

I didn't want to remind him that we could only keep the puppy if no one claimed it. Carlos looked too happy with the small dog. He did always say he wanted a dog and I wasn't going to ruin his happiness. "You already named him? Why Boyd?"

"He seems like a Boyd."

AN: I was going to do more Logan, but realized as I was writing this chapter that it really isn't about Logan, Carlos, or James. What is happening to them is basically filler for the bigger picture; what is happening in Kendall's life.
The next chapter will feature James and Carlos. Just because it's mostly about Kendall does not mean I'm going to ignore the other guys. Their parts are just not going to be as big and dramatic.
Oh if you know what the Easter egg is in this chapter, tell me.
Hope you like it and leave comments about what you think. The only way I will get better at writing is if you tell me what I did that was good and what I did that needs work on.
Up next: More Kensey and James and more Carlos, Logan, and their new friends, Boyd.
