I ran up to Carlos, dropping to my knees next to him.
"CALL 911!" I yelled
Logan was still shocked so James dialed the number. James was talking a mile a minute to the person on the other end of the line.
"Logan!" I yelled
He was shaking as he ran up to Carlos and I.
"Go tell Gustavo and Kelly" I instructed
"Ok" he squeaked before running into Rocque Records
"Carlos, stay with me!" I pleaded
"Ambulance is on the way!" James announced, kneeling beside me
We could hear the sirens already coming. I stood up and waved my arms at the arriving ambulances, successfully flagging them down. They skidded to a stop and quickly loaded Carlos into the back. The ambulance was gone as soon as it came. Soon after, Logan, Gustavo and Kelly came out of Rocque Records.
"Alex, we gotta tell Alex!" I yelled
"Got it!" James yelled, getting his phone back out
We all stood there for a few minutes while James called her.
"She didn't pick up!" James yelled, panicking
"Then we need to go get her!" Logan yelled
"Yes! Logan come with me to the hospital, James you go get Alex!" I yelled
We walked to our cars. Logan hopped into the passenger's seat of my car and James got into his car. We all sped off. I drove towards the hospital as fast as I could without getting arrested. Logan and I ran into the hospital as soon as skidded into a parking space. We sprinted up to the receptionist lady.
"Carlos Pena?" Logan asked, frantic
"Go wait for a doctor" she sighed
We went and sat down. We were there for five minutes when James pulled a half-asleep Alex over to us by her arm. He pushed her into the chair next to me and she slumped against my arm. She closed her eyes but then realized where we were.
"Why am I at the hospital? Are one of you guys pregnant or something?" she asked groggily
"You didn't tell her?" Logan asked
"I panicked!" James yelled
"Where's Carlos?" she asked, suddenly awake
"He got stabbed" I said carefully "Someone threw a knife into his back" I added
"W-who?" she asked
"We don't know" I said
"Is he ok?" she asked
"We don't know" Logan answered
"Oh… well then" she said before clearing her throat
Logan moved from the chair next to me to the one on the opposite side of her. He began rubbing her arm methodically. She didn't look worried or nervous, she looked emotionless. She must have shut her emotions out. She smiled briefly at Logan when he started rubbing her arm, but that was it.
-Half an hour later-
"Is there an Alex here?" A doctor asked, looking at a file
Without any emotion on her face, Alex got up and walked over to him. She walked into another room with him.
After ten minutes, she walked back to the rest of us. She wiped her eyes and sat back between Logan and I.
"Alex?" Logan asked
"What'd he say?" I asked
"C-Carlos…" Alex started, getting choked up
"Is he dead?" James choked out
"No, not yet at least" Alex could barely say the last part
"Can we go see him?" Logan asked
"Yeah, the doctor said I could if I wanted to, will you guys come with me?" she asked
"Of course" Logan said
We all stood up and the receptionist led us to Carlos' room. Alex must have been nervous because she grabbed Logan's hand as we walked down the long hall to Carlos' room. Logan held her hand and she seemed to relax her shoulders a tiny bit.
When we got to the door, we all stood there for a second. I could see Alex's knuckles turn white from squeezing Logan's hand so tightly. There was absolutely no emotion on her face though, all of it was transferred to her hand.
We slowly walked inside to see a perfectly normal Carlos sitting in his bed with a smile on his face. I pulled up the chair that was in the room and sat beside his bed.
"Hey Carlitos" I said
"How are ya feelin'?" James asked, moving to stand next to my chair
"Pretty good, but I've been better" Carlos replied shrugging
Alex and Logan were still standing a few feet inside the door. Carlos looked and saw Alex's white knuckles and frowned.
"Alex, give Logan's hand a chance to breathe" he said frowning
Alex immediately let go of Logan's hand but didn't move. Logan urged her forward with a gentle push. She walked up to the bed and I pulled her closer. I realized then that there weren't any more chairs so I pulled her into my lap. She was so tense.
"Alex, I'm fine" Carlos said, grabbing her hand
"B-but you- you were stabbed" Alex said with a small voice
"And I'll be fine" Carlos said, squeezing her hand
"Whatev- Kendall, why am I sitting on your lap?" Alex asked me
"For moral support… and there aren't any more chairs" I said and shrugged
"Not that I mind…" she started
"Are you cheating on me?" Carlos asked in mock horror
"You better bet she is! She loves me now!" I said, wrapping my arms around her
We all laughed. I'm glad to see everyone happy. I released Alex and she carefully sat by Carlos' feet on the bed.
-Ten minutes later-
"God! I. Am. Starving!" Alex said, hopping up "I am off to get a snack. Anyone want anything?" she asked
We all said no and she walked over and kissed Carlos before turning for the door. She was on her way out the door…
"What, no kiss for your boyfriend?" I asked jokingly
She walked back over and kissed me on the cheek.
"Better?" she asked before skipping out of the room
"Oh, Carlos you got some competition there" James joked
"Kendall, you better not take my girl" Carlos said jokingly, making fists with his hands like he was going to fight me "Alex is so mine!" he said, smiling and pointing to himself with his thumbs
"Logan! Earth to Logan!" I called, seeing that Logan was staring at a wall
"Wh-what?" Logan asked, coming back to reality
"Whatcha thinkin' bout?" I asked
"I may have seen something I shouldn't have" Logan whispered
"What, Logan?" I asked
"There was only one other person that was near us, or even in the same parking lot as us, in any way, shape, or form when Carlos was stabbed" Logan said
"Who was it Logan?" Carlos asked
"But it couldn't be…" Logan said, thinking deeply
"But it was!" James said
"What?" Logan asked, confused
"Just trying to help" James offered shrugging
"It's not possible" Logan whispered, barely audible
"It couldn't have been" Carlos whispered, understanding Logan's unspoken words suddenly
"Who are we talking about?" James yelled
"Trey" Logan and Carlos said simultaneously
