James' P.O.V
My alarm clock let out a deathly wail as if it was experiencing its untimely death, but I was ready for it. I quickly slammed my hand on the clock and it quickly shut up. I cracked a huge smile. Today's the day, the day I get my Logie back. I got out of bed whistling a simple tune and headed towards the kitchen to make me breakfast. After breakfast I went back to my room to check that I had everything ready. I mentally checked everything off my mental check list.
When I was done, I grabbed my clothes, which I picked out last night, and headed to the bathroom. I took a quick shower, cleaning all my important parts, and then got dressed.
"Morning James" Kendall said as he ate cereal. I was still drying my hair when I exited the bathroom.
"Morning" I answered "Where's Carlos?"
"In his room still" Kendall said.
"Ok. I'll get him. We have to get to the spot early to make sure no one steals it" I said and headed to Carlos' and Logan's room. I knocked lightly and entered "Hey, buddy, you up?" I asked softly. Suddenly a pillow was flying towards my head, luckily I dodged it "Come on Carlos, it's time to get up" The buddle of blankets let out an inaudible string of sounds which I paraphrased as 'no'.
"Carlos, it's time" I said in a scary voice, but it didn't even make the buddle move "Carlos, don't make me drag you out of bed"
Carlos' head popped out of the buddle.
"James" he moaned before his head disappeared once again "James" he said, sounding almost, scared? "James, the blankets, they've kidnapped me. I can't leave. You are going to just have to wait for a ransom note" Carlos, you idiot.
"Fine" I said heading out the door. Before I was out of ear shot I could hear Carlos.
"It worked?" he said popping his head out.
I returned quickly with something behind my back and Carlos was once again hidden in between sheets.
"Carlos, you have one more chance" I said. He let out a sound that I took as a challenge.
A cold bucket of water and a screaming Carlos later we were all in the car and heading towards the picnic spot.
Logan's P.O.V
"Hello?" I called out as I knocked and opened the door to 2J simultaneously "Guys?" I called out again, but still no answer. The place was completely deserted. Huh, I wonder where they went.
"No one's here, you're safe, for now" I said turning around to face Jazz.
"Do I have to?" Jazz whined.
"Yes, you do. You started this"
"Technically, you started this when you left with Jazz in the not so distant past" she argued smugly.
"Whatever, I don't remember that part" I pouted, causing Jazz to laugh.
"Come on" she said draping an arm over my shoulder and leading me to the exit.
"Are you looking for the guys?" A voice said behind me. I turned around to find Camille.
"Yeah" I said nervously "Do you maybe know where they are?"
"Oh, sorry, what?" she asked confused. That's when I noticed Camille wasn't paying attention to me, it was Jazz she was interested in and it seemed as if Jazz returned this interest. I cleared my thought loudly and they both turned red.
"Camille, this is Jazz. Jazz this is Camille" I said introducing them to each other. They exchanged awkward hellos "Hey, Camille, you were going to tell me where the guys are"
"Huh? Oh, right. Kendall said to give you this" She said taking out a small piece of paper with writing on it. I took it and read it. It read, 'Hey, out with Carlos at the palm woods park. Come join us. No James' allowed' I laughed inwardly. If only they knew that's the exact opposite of what I want. I looked up to see that Camille and Jazz were having a conversation. I smiled to myself.
"Hey, sorry to disturb, can I borrow Jazz for a second?" I asked Camille, and her cheeks flushed red. She nodded her head vigorously.
"You know, Jazz" I whispered to Jazz on the side "If you want to stay with Camille, I don't mind. The park is right over the street"
"But, I thought you needed me to explain to James...?"
"No worries, I got away to sort it out. By the way, why didn't you tell me?"
"That I'm a lesbian? Well, I did, kind of. I told you I found new things out about myself at private school"
"Yeah, you did. Just come on" I said grabbing her by the hand and took her back to Camille "Hey, Camille"
"Hey" she said looking at our hands. Wow, can she really be jealous already?
"Jazz, here, wanted to know if you two could hang out today. You see I have something to take care of and she will be all alone and lonely without me" Ignoring the glare from Jazz I continued "So, what do you say?"
"Sure" Camille said smiling "I would love to"
"Ok, great" I said walking away "Have fun you love birds" I said over my shoulder. Camille turned a deep red that I have only seen on tomatoes and Jazz gave me 'the look', something I used to give my parents when they were embarrassing me.
James' P.O.V
"So guys, what do you think?" I asked taking a step back to admire the picnic spread.
"You were right" Carlos said in awe "It's so beautiful"
"Why, thank you, Carlos" I said happily. I turned around to see Carlos staring at the scenery "I was talking about my picnic spread, Carlos" I said rolling my eyes.
"It's very romantic, James" Kendall said "Hey, Carlos, why don't you take the car and pick Logan up. He sent me a message, his waiting by a bench. It is done right?" he asked me. I nodded. I looked to Carlos, but he didn't move, he didn't even flinch when his name was mentioned.
"Carlos?" Kendall called. This time Carlos turned around and looked Kendall right in the eye "Did you hear me?" Kendall asked, but all he received from Carlos was silence.
"Please, Carlos" I said, knowing this could end badly.
"Sure, James" Carlos said cracking a smile at me before heading to the car.
"What was that about?" Kendall asked confused.
"You really are an idiot" I said, as the cars shape disappeared.
"What? What did I do?"
"Last night, Kendall, when you asked Katie not to say anything to your mom"
"I don't understand. What does that have to do with the silent treatment I'm getting from Carlos?"
"You made him feel like you are ashamed of him"
"What?" Kendall asked astonished "How can he think that? I just didn't want my mom to find it out by Katie; I want to tell her myself"
"Well, Carlos saw it in another way. You know how he gets"
"I know, yeah" Kendall sighed "How do I fix this?"
"Talk to him"
"After what just happened, do you really think he will listen to anything I say?"
"Ok, then, how about riding the silent treatment out? Carlos loves you very much. He will give in quickly, he will start missing you"
"Do you really think that can work?"
"I do" I said smiling
"Thank so much, James" He smiled back
"So you really think my picnic spread is romantic?"
"Yes" he said rolling his eyes "It's perfect James"
"It will be, when Logan gets here"
Logan's P.O.V
Taken all I could take,
And I cannot wait.
We're wasting too much time
Being strong, holding on.
Can't let it bring us down.
My life with you means everything,
So I won't give up that easily.
I'll blow it away, blow it away.
Can we make this something good?
'Cause it's all misunderstood.
Well, I'll try to do it right this time around.
I closed my eyes and tapped my foot to the beat.
Let's start over.
I'll try to do it right this time around.
It's not over.
'Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground.
This love is killing me,
But you're the only one.
It's not over.
I felt a hand on my shoulder and I opened my eyes, it was Carlos.
"Hey" I said taking out my ear phones, rolling it around my cell phone and putting it in my pocket "Where's Kendall?"
"He's waiting for us. Come on" he said nervously, waving towards the car.
"We're taking a car? To the park, which we are currently in?" I asked raising an eyebrow.
"What are you, the boy of many questions?" He asked laughing nervously. Ok, now I know something's going on.
"Carlos" I said narrowing my eyes. He opened the passenger door, smiled and nodded. I got in, checking for booby traps first, of course. Carlos started the car and we rode off, I decide it was time for me to start interrogating. Carlos is really sweet, but he is easy to crack.
"So, Carlos?" I started
"Yes?" He asked. I could hear the hesitation in his voice.
"What's going on?" I asked narrowing my eyes. He only nodded his head as if he agreed with what I was saying. Ok, this is starting to get very suspicious. That usually works getting things out of him. That's when I realized, he must have been coached. Smart, they thought if he kept quiet he couldn't spill anything, but not smart enough. They forget who they're dealing with.
"Carlos, what's going on? Where are you taking me? Where's Kendall? Who are you working with? Is Kendall going to prank me? What's your favourite colour?" I blurted out. Carlos looked confused.
"Do you know how weird you are? We are going-" Carlos' eyes suddenly went wide. He quickly shut his mouth and squeezed his lips shut tight. He nodded his head giving me a weird lipless smile.
Damn it, so close. Who ever coached him, Kendall I assume, did very well. I didn't want to do this, but it seems I have no choice. I have to bring out the big guns.
I leaned forward in my seat, the seat belt keeping me from moving forward too much, and put my hand under my seat. Carlos looked at me out of the corner of his eye. I promised I would only use this in emergencies. It is to powerful a tool to wield.
I wrapped my fingers around the package and quickly pulled it out; making sure Carlos wouldn't catch a glimpse of it, not yet at least.
"Carlos?" I asked. He looked at me quickly before returning his eyes to the road, but in that split second I could see the look in his eyes, the determination. He still said nothing. I quickly took the object out of the air tight bag and then out of its packaging. Carlos suddenly sniffed the air, before his eyes went wide with realization.
"No, not that" He pleaded, trying to keep his eyes on the road.
"Yes, Carlos" I smiled, bringing the ultimate object forward "A corndog. I knew one day I would need it, but I promised myself I wouldn't use it unless I really needed to" Carlos looked at me and back to the road, I saw his resolve breaking.
"Carlos, would you really deny yourself the delicious goodness of this corndog?"
Carlos was starting to sweat now, his resolve breaking even further. Just one more push. I moved the corndog slowly towards Carlos.
"Delicious corndog goodness" I teased.
Suddenly, Carlos stepped on the brakes. I was pushed forward and felt a sharp pain as my seat belt stopped me from flying through the windscreen.
"We're here" Carlos sighed, before taking a bite of the corndog which I still had in my hand.
"Are you crazy?! You could have killed us!" I shouted at Carlos
"Well, then next time don't wave a corndog in my face!" He retorted.
"I didn't-" I was interrupted when someone lightly knocked on my window.
"Guys, is everything alright?" Kendall asked.
"Just fine" I answered "Carlos, I'm sorry" I sighed.
"No, I'm sorry; I shouldn't have stepped on the brakes like that without warning you. Forgive me?"
"Of course" I smiled, giving him a hug.
"Great, now come on" Kendall said. I didn't notice the look Carlos gave Kendall.
We got out of the car and headed towards a picnic spot. It was beautiful. There were chocolate covered strawberries, sandwiches, and all kinds of fruit like watermelon, mangos, and apples all cut into cubes. The scenery was even more beautiful. It looked almost like it was undisturbed by humans. There was a light breeze that shook the trees and little patches of flowers that were spread out everywhere. It smelt like nature; fresh air and flowers. I heard birds singing in the distance, even though it was late morning. Then I realized something.
"Sorry, guys, did I ruin your date?"
"No" Kendall said "Because it's not our date"
"I don't understand"
"It's our date" James said coming practically out of nowhere, surprising me and causing me to take a step backwards.
