Chapter 6

Kendall and Logan stared at one another for a long while. The silence felt thick around them, and Kendall couldn't help but frown at the look of disappointment on Logan's face. Sure, Logan was upset with him, but Kendall believed that Logan wouldn't truly judge him or stay mad at him. Sighing, Kendall tries to avoid eye contact with the brunette in front of him as Logan quickly snatches the bottle from Kendall's hand before he can stop him.

"Once more, I ask, why? Why take these? Where did you even get them?" Logan wonders as he looks over the pill bottle in his hand.

Frowning, Kendall sighs, "None of your business." Kendall states with a bit of venom in his voice. "Why does it matter? It's not that big of a deal." Kendall finishes as he glares at Logan.

Logan frowns, surprised by Kendall's statement. "Kendall, this is a big deal. Don't you remember learning about drugs in school? They are not good for you! You have to stop taking them!"

"So what? They haven't harmed me yet," Kendall growls, slightly glaring at Logan.

"Yet," Logan mumbles as he shakes his head.

"Give me the bottle back, Logan."

"Not until you promise me you'll get rid of them and stop taking these!"

"And if I don't?"

Logan sighs, feeling slightly frustrated. He rubs the temples of his forehead, looking at his friend sadly, and he says, "I'll tell the guys, your mother, as well as Gustavo and Kelly."
Logan threatens as he eyes Kendall seriously while crossing his arms.

"You can't be serious!" Kendall states as he glares at Logan more, he is shocked his friend would even tattle on him like that.
"You can't tell anyone!" Kendall states as he too crosses his arms while frowning.

"I won't if you promise to get rid of this bottle and dispose of it now and stop taking them." Logan inquires as he holds the bottle out in front of him.

There's silence for a moment as Kendall debates on what to do. One, he could grab the bottle and run, but that would result in either Logan chasing him down or telling someone else in their group. Or two, he does as Logan says and throws the bottle away, and stops taking them. With these choices in mind, Kendall wasn't sure which way to go. He was torn, and as much as he didn't want to throw those pills away, he knew Logan was right. After all, Logan was the future doctor of the group, so he would know how things would if Kendall kept going down this road; it all made sense how Logan also knew what the bottle even was in the first place.

With a sigh of defeat, Kendall holds his hand out and says, "Fine, and you win, I'll throw them away and stop taking them." Kendall states as he looks down at his feet in shame.

"Good, thank you!" Logan states as he hands Kendall the bottle back. "I'm only doing this for your good, Kenny." Logan finishes as he smiles softly at the nickname of his friend.

"I know Logie, I know," Kendall replies with a soft smile.

The two stare at one another until Logan says, "I'm leaving you alone until you throw those away. I want to see you do it myself, so I know you followed through with it."
Logan explains as he eyes the bottle in Kendall's hand.

Nodding, Kendall turns and heads towards the kitchen where the garbage is. Grabbing a napkin quickly so Logan couldn't tell, he crumbles it in his hand, and he opens the garage door that's a part of the counter and puts the bottle in his hand with the napkin. However, Kendall only throws the napkin in a while, ensuring his hand is out of view from Logan. Once he does that, he moves his hand out quickly, puts the bottle in his pant pocket, and closes the garage door. He holds both hands up to show Logan they are empty and the two smiles at one another.

"See, all gone now." Kendall lies as he comes back over to Logan. Part of him felt guilty for lying, but the rest of him tried to ignore the feeling.

Logan smiles, and the two have a real quick hug. "Good, thanks! Now want to play some video games?"
Logan questions as his eyes light up with hope, and he could use a distraction after all that happened between him and Kendall.

"Sure, buddy; I don't mind as long as I get the platinum controller!?" Kendall states with excitement as the two boys rush over to the couch.

"Aw man, you always get the platinum controller but fine, I'll let you have it this time." Logan states as he and Kendall laugh.

The two must've played their video games for about a few hours because it was starting to get dark outside by the time they were getting tired. Mrs. Knight and Katie had finally returned from their all-day shopping trip. Logan and Kendall had paused their game to help the girls unload everything. Once they were done, James and Carlos had finally come back as well, and they came bringing pizza for everyone. The whole group sat around the table that night, eating pizza and talking. It was a lovely evening to spend as a family. Soon they were all done eating and cleaning up; the group all then headed to bed for the night.

Inside their room, Logan and Kendall got ready for bed. As Logan was in the shower, Kendall got into his pj's. He also took the pill bottle out of his pant pocket and placed it inside his nightstand. Kendall thought he wouldn't touch them or be tempted to accept them if they were out of sight. Finally, Logan came out in PJs, and the two said their goodnights and went to sleep. The moment his head hit the pillow, Kendall was out….

…

It had been a week since Logan confronted Kendall about taking the pills. The pills had been inside Kendall's nightstand for the week when Logan believed they'd been thrown away. However, Kendall has kept to his word and hasn't taken any. But, the temptation was harder than Logan nor Kendall realized it was. Every day the boys were at the studio, and Gustavo yelled at them yet again for any reason he could find; Kendall felt his anxiety go up, and each time it did, he wished he had those pills on him. Thankfully, Logan would help calm him down, and the four guys would find ways to relax that evening and let some steam off.

But each day got more challenging and more complex. The more Kendall didn't take a pill, the more he wanted it. It finally happened sometime during the next week, and it had been a rough day at the studio. With a performance coming up this Friday, Gustavo was pushing the guys harder than he usually did. Sure, he always did this when they had a concert coming up, but the stress was starting to get to Kendall; heck, he could see it was getting to the others as well. That evening, the guys didn't get out until almost eleven at night, which meant they didn't have time to relax or get their steam out, which upset Kendall.

Once they were inside the room, Kendall called for an end to the night, saying goodnight to his friends and taking off for his and Logan's shared space. Grabbing a water bottle on his way, he took a drink of the water and sighed. Entering his room, he closed the door and instantly went for his nightstand, digging, and inside the door, he found the bottle and opened it. Getting one pill out, he takes the small white item and sighs in relief. Putting the bottle back and setting his water bottle on the nightstand, Kendall gets into PJs and goes right to bed.

The following day, which is Thursday, Kendall and the guys find themselves at the studio once more. But, before they left for the studio this morning, Kendall had taken yet another pill, knowing it would help with today's pressure. So, today, the four boys were currently in the dance studio going over their dance routine for their performance on a Los Angela talk show tomorrow. It would be aired on TV, which could help get their band name out there. The guys go over and over the steps until Gustavo deems them good enough. Then, they move on to practicing the song. They are planning to sign their new song "Till I Forget About You" which has surprisingly become very popular on the music charts. It was around nine pm when the guys were finally finished with their day of work, and thanks to the pills, Kendall seemed to have had a decent day (Of course, no one knew he was even on them, not even Logan, but Kendall couldn't help but feel Logan's eyes on him a lot).

That night, the boys relaxed a little but still went to bed around eleven pm since they had to be at the studio by six am for their performance tomorrow. They would meet at the studio, then ride over with Gustavo and Kelly, where they would get to experience a fantastic day. Kendall smiles as he gets into bed, sneaking another pill in once he knows Logan is asleep. After taking the medication, Kendall falls asleep without any issues; all four boys dream about how exciting tomorrow will be. But little did they know; what is supposed to be a fun-filled day; will soon become a nightmare for all of them…
