This took me forever to get right enough to post.
Let's hope it's good.

Logan looked out of the plane window, worry lines creasing his face.
"What's wrong?" Kendall asked, holding his hand tightly.
"We're going back to LA," Logan muttered.
"So?"
"So? ! ? Do you know what kind of crap we're gonna get?"
"Logie, it'll be okay. Really. You've got me, James, and Carlos by your side. We'd never let anyone mess with you."
"Yeah Logie."
"We'd never let anyone hurt our Logie." He glared and James and Carlos, trying to fight the smile he wanted to give his friends.
"Will you two get back into your seats? We're landing soon."
…
As the four teens exited the plane, they were soon surrounded by screams of excitement and tight hugs. When they were finally able to get a bearing of their surroundings and breathe, they looked at who greeted them. Standing in front of them were Kelly, Mrs. Knight, Katie, and Camille. The boys couldn't contain their smiles, and Kendall couldn't control his eyes as he looked around for Jo; he was a little worried when she wasn't there. He was thrown out of his worry when he was hugged by both his mom and sister.
"We're so glad you came back," his mom whispered before he got a hit upside the head by Katie.
"You better not leave again," she said before hitting Logan, "And you don't leave again either."
"We won't," they said together, making everyone smile at them. Kendall slipped an arm around Logan, holding him close.
"So, what happened while we were gone?" Logan asked, making the four women's eyes drop to the ground. "That bad huh?"
"The Palm Woods has gone to hell!"
"Katie!"
"What? It's the best way to explain it!"
"What does she mean, 'gone to hell'? James asked, sounding worried enough for the rest of the band.
"Well… Jo kind of told the whole place about you two…." Camille said, directing her answer at Kendall and Logan, looking embarrassed. "I tried to stop her, but she freaked on me about how I knew and should've told her, then I freaked on her and told her it was her fault that it happened this way, and then well… the place kind of … split."
"Split?" they asked, making her nod.
"Half of the Palm Woods agrees that you two should be together while the other half… well…" Camille just shrugged as her sentence wore off. "You can guess what's happening…"
"Well… who's on our half?"
"Me, Katie, Mama Knight, Kelly, Gustavo-"
"Gustavo ? ! ?" they all chorused, making Camille roll her eyes.
"Yes, now let me finish. Bitters, Jett, Guitar Dude, two-thirds of the Jennifers-"
"Griffin and Mercedes," Kelly interrupted.
"Yeah them too and a bunch of other people that I can't even think of right now."
"Wow. Bitters?"
"Turns out that he had a … "friend" back in the day," Katie said with a smirk and air quotes.
"Ewwwww."
"Wait, did you say Jett?"
"Yeah."
"Huh."
…
As their car headed towards the Palm Woods, Logan couldn't help but wonder what was awaiting them. He felt Kendall rub his arm comfortingly, but he didn't look at him, just watched as the world passed them by through the window. He heard James and Carlos arguing about something and Mama Knight and Kelly scolding them, but he didn't pay attention. Lost in his own world, he hadn't realized he had spoken out loud.
"I shouldn't have come back." Everyone was staring at him, but he continued to look out the window. "It's all my fault."
"No, if I remember correctly, it was Kendall who made the move on you," James said.
"Yeah, Kendall kissed you, right?" Carlos asked, sounding like such a little kid that Logan's mouth quirked up a bit in the corner.
"Soooo, technically, it would be Kendall's fault," Camille concluded. Logan could see their reflections, all of them nodding in sync. He finally smiled but didn't face them yet.
"Damn Kendall," Logan said, his smile growing. Kendall smiled and pulled Logan towards him.
"It'll be okay. I've never let anyone hurt you, not even crazy Jo," Kendall said, kissing Logan's cheek. "Besides, we're hockey players first, a band second."
"That's why you gotta live it big time!" Carlos and James called out together.
"You guys are idiots," Logan said with a small laugh.
"That's why you love us."
…
As the four teens, escorted by their friends and family, entered the lobby, they were met silence. The entire place seemed to be empty/
"Where is everyone?" James muttered, making his friends shrug.
"Probably planning some anti-Kendall-Logan fiasco," Camille commented as the group made their way up to their apartment. They stopped at the door when they saw it was covered in graffiti. As they read the slander, Logan felt his heart tighten and his eyes narrow.
"I'll be right back," he said, letting go of Kendall's hand and turning away. No one followed him as he disappeared down the hallway. He hurried to the stairs and took them two at a time. As he stepped onto the desired floor, he made his way to a door. Knocking harshly, it was swung open to reveal a sneering Jo.
"Oh look, it's the faggot that took my Kendall away from me," she practically snarled in his face. She went to slam the door in his face, but he put his hand out to stop her.
"Hi Jo; I just came by to tell you something." She didn't say anything, but looked like she was waiting for him to speak. "I know you hate me. And you have every right to. But I want you to know, when you came back and Kendall chose you, I gave him up. I don't like hurting people, and that includes you. I hated you, but I hated him more. I was going to leave so I didn't have to be around him. I know you must think that I did all that to steal him from you, but I didn't. I swear. I loved him, but he seemed happy with you, and I was going to let him be happy, with you. I didn't think he'd choose to come back to me." Jo looked almost ready to cry as she grabbed the door.
"Goodbye Logan," she said, closing the door.
"Goodbye Jo. I'm sorry for any pain I've caused you," Logan said, turning away and heading back to his apartment. Jo stood in her own apartment, tears coursing down her cheeks.
"Dammit."

I think I like how this chapter ended.
Do think it's good, if I do say so myself :D
