Chapter 12

James jumped up out of his bed. It was 7:30. James never woke up that early, even though he was supposed to. He was excited for today. Why? Cuz it was the last day of school! After today, James knew he didn't have to ride the stinkin' bus to school and back. He could go on vacations, and it would be so fun! Summer break was his, and everyone else's, favorite break of all!

He quickly dressed and ate breakfast. Angie was surprised at James's sudden willingness to get to school. "What's the rush, little bro?" She laughed. James turned to her and gave her a look that said, 'Are you serious?'

"It's the LAST day of school, don't you know sister?" Angie nodded. She loved last days, and she could remember her first last day. Funny, her first last day. That was ironic!

"And, guess what? Today we have a rewards ceremony thingymajiggy." Angie laughed at the long word. Her little brother could be so stupid sometimes.

"Aren't you a little too young to be getting awards?" She asked.

"Oh yeah! Dang it! My teacher said that's when your in 5th grade! I totally forgot!" James whacked himself in the head.

"James? 'Totally' is such a girly word! Your so girly girl!" Angie teased him. James looked back, angry, and tackled Angie onto the floor. They wrestled for a few minutes, until Angie finally let James win. "Haha sissy! I just beat you!" Angie didn't respond, she was laughing too hard. Why? No one would ever know.

When James arrived at school, and sat at his desk, she looked over at his new teacher, Mr. Krimes. He was so nice, and even better than Mrs. Simpson. And obviously, better than that stupid excuse for a teacher, Mrs. Kobake.

"Class, as you all know, today is the last day of school!" The class cheered, and the teacher just chuckled sofly. "First up, we need to unfold secrets." James remembered that the first day Mr. Krimes came, he made them all write down a secret that no one else in the class knew about them. The person who read it at the end of the school year could never tell anyone. James, Kendall, Logan, and Carlos, all promised to write down the most shocking secret of their's ever. They were best friends, right?

Logan and Kendall didn't agree at first, but after a little persuasion from James and Carlos, they agreed and were pretty excited for it.

"Class, we have an even number of kids. So, partner up! I will each hand you the slip of paper in the white envelope with your name on it. I haven't read any of them, I promise you. Then, you exchange envelopes and read the others' secret. Good luck!"

Kendall partnered up with James, and Carlos partnered up with Logan. Of course they would, right? They were ready to face a huge secret of their best friend ever.

James took Kendall's envelope, and slowly opened it. He unfolded the sheet, his heart pumping. He knew what he was about to see was gonna be happy or funny or cheerful or just plain surprising and stupid.

Oh, how wrong he was.

Carlos Garica quickly opened up Logan's envelope. He was prepared for whatever the secret was. He was expecting it to be something stupid like he had exactly 4.12432 pieces of pie on the first day of school. Or some weird fact like, "Did you know that I am 23% Irish and 12% German?"

Oh, how wrong he was.

Kendall Knight stared down at James neat handwriting. How did his handwriting come out to be so good and neat? Kendall's writing was just a small scribble, and was probably the worst in class. In his opinion, of course.

Kendall was almost 99% sure James's secret was something about his beauty and make up or where he got his lucky comb.

Oh, how wrong he was.

Logan Mitchell looked over at Carlos. What secret could he have? He was just some playful little boy who had suddenly decided to wear a helmet for the rest of his life. His secret was probably his favorite ice cream flavor or something unpredictable like that.

Oh, how wrong he was.

James Diamond read, "I, Kendall Knight, has a serious case of ADHD. If it gets worse, I won't be a normal kid anymore. I need a special treatment, too."

Carlos Garcia read, "Mrs. Simpson killed my twin sister because she hated her and me. Now her sister is trying to kidnap me. -Logan Mitchell."

Kendall Knight read, "I, James Diamond, has alopecia, which I lost all my hair, and my hair now is a wig. Alopecia is very likely to envolve into cancer."

Logan Mitchell read, "My daddy, Officer/Mr. Garcia, hits and kicks me every day and night. He abuses me in all types of different ways. He covers up my bruises and torn skin, and mommy is too scared to help."

A/N- So sorry for the short chapter, but a lot is revealed. This is probably gonna be the main plot... and their so young. They will not truly understand until they are older. Poor Kendall, James, Logan, and Carlos! Please review! Pllllllleeeeeaaaasssseee?
