Chapter 7: Hidden Shadows

Carlos was quiet, sneaky, unnoticed as he crept along the nearly empty hallways. He crouched low behind potted plants, hid behind a soda machine and ducked into a supply closet. All this to keep his cover.

He felt like a secret agent. He was even dressed for the part; black skinny jeans, black shirt, his leather jacket, and his black shinny helmet to complete his look. His attire perfect for blending into the shadows that arose in the dead of night. Only problem was, it was still afternoon and the Palmwoods hallways were brightly lit like they were all hours of the day and night. Which his why he kept himself firmly pressed against the walls in an attempt to conceal himself.

For the first time since he read Logan's journal he was starting to relax. He wasn't obsessing over the fact that his best friend was hiding not one, but two major secrets from him, but was now focused on more important things. It was time to have a bit of fun with the knowledge he had uncovered. Now it was time to do some investigating.

Bond style!

Ok, so maybe he was getting a little bit carried away. He wasn't James Bond. He didn't have a fancy car, a license to kill, or a bond girl for that matter(though he did consider hiring the Jennifers for that job, if he time), but a guy can dream, right?

Who needed a license to kill anyway? It was only Logan!

Finally the doctor wannabe came to a stop at familiar door. He looked around quickly, before knocking. Carlos knew that door. He knew who lived there, only he couldn't think of who it was on the spot. He wasn't good under pressure.

A low voice called through the door. Logan responded in a whisper followed by the sound of many locks before the door finally opened. Carlos closed his eyes, pressing himself further into a random doorway, his breath held trying to conceal himself as a Jett Stetson stepped out into the hallway. The handsome actor looked around momentarily, hurrying Logan inside before closing the door behind him.

Carlos let out his breath, his eyes wide and a grin on his face as he rushed for the elevator. He tapped the button several times until it opened with a ding. He rushed in with such haste that he failed to notice the elevator was occupied until he ran face first into a green eyed blond.

"Whoa, Buddy. Slow down," Kendall tapped the latino on the head, "What's the rush?"

"I just saw- I mean," he stopped as his eyes fell on James standing beside the blond.

"What did you see?" James asked, hazel eyes shinning in interest.

"Uh, nothing. Nothing important," Carlos lied, shaking his head as he fought to keep his excitement under control.

"Doesn't seem like nothing," James pointed out knowing the shorter boy probably better than anyone else after sharing a room for so long. He could tell Carlos was hiding something.

Carlos was practically bouncing on his feet wanting to spill, but knew he had to hold it in. Instead, he came with, "I just met this really hot girl and I got her number!"

"Alright!" James cheered in excitement holding up his hand, "High five!"

Carlos obliged, jumping a bit in order to reach the taller boy's outstretched hand as the elevator dinged again, signaling their arrival on their floor. Kendall and Carlos exited, looking back at James who remained inside.

"I'm actually going to head out to the pool for a bit. I'll catch you later?" he explained, pressing the button for the lobby, waving to his friends as the doors closed. "I had fun today Kendall. We should do it again sometime!"

Kendall smiled, waving back until the doors closed before turning to Carlos in excitement. "I know who Logan's secret lover is!"

"Me too!" Carlos jumped up and down relieved to finally spill the information.

"It's James!"

"It's Jett!"

"Wait? Jett? What do you mean it's Jett?" Kendall asked confused. It couldn't be Jett. Logan would never do that to him. He knew how much Kendall and Jett hated each other.

"I heard him talking on the phone earlier about meeting up with someone. He said it would be their little secret and I followed him. He went to Jett's apartment! I saw him! Why do you think its James?"

Kendall rolled his eyes, "Because me and James were talking during lunch and he mentioned something about wanting to fall in love with his best friend so when I heard your message about Logan's journal saying he was gay too, I put two and two together."

Carlos thought about it for a moment shaking his head, "No its definitely Jett."

"It's James!"

"It's Jett!"

"It's James!"

"Logan is in love with Jett!"

"He's in love with James!"

"How do you know James was talking about Logan, huh?" Carlos threw out there. "He mentioned his best friend! He has three best friends! How do you know he wasn't talking about you?"

"Me? Why would he be talking about me?"

"Because you were the one out on a date with him."

"It wasn't a date! We just went to lunch and a movie and a little walk in the park…" Kendall's eyes widened as he thought about what he was saying, "It could of just as easily been you he was talking about!"

"So we agree then?"

"We agree that James is in love with you?" Kendall raised an eyebrow now confused.

"No, we agree that James wasn't talking about Logan since Logan is in love with Jett and James is in love with one of us and not Logan!"

Kendall blinked even more confused than ever. He looked around taking in their surroundings for the first time, "Maybe we should take this inside before someone over hears us."

Carlos' chocolate eyes widened as he looked around the hallway. Luckily it was empty from what he could see. Gustavo would kill them if someone overheard them and it ended up in some random tabloid that Big Time Rush was fighting over each other, "After you," Carlos opened the door, stepping aside to let the blond walk in before following behind, closing the door behind them.

Logan groaned, watching the door to apartment 2J close before stepping out from around the corner, "I'm going to kill James!"
