AN: So here is chapter 2. Again thanks to all who have reviewed. I'm still unsure about the revenge but I promise I'm trying really hard.x Pairings as before.
Chapter 2-Why is there always something?
No one moved for almost a minute and suddenly there was a rush of action. First everyone watched Kendall. His expression went from confussed, to annoyed to pure anger, and the others were waiting for the explosion. They didn't have to wait long.
"Stop him!" was the first sound made, coming from Logan, and suddenly he, James and Carlos had jumped across the cabana to stop the now fuming Kendall from jumping at the new arrival. James and Carlos managed to keep him back while Logan tried to talk to him.
"Let me go guys...I mean it!" Kendall said trying and failing to throw his friends off. Now Kendall Knight was not the most violent of people. In the contrary he was more of a pacafist, like Logan, always prefering not to hit someone if it was possible, unlike James and Carlos who fought over the smallest things. He always said he wasn't himself when he was on the ice and he was the first to shake the other teams hand at the end of any game, win or loose. That was just Kendall.
But this pure rage was something new and very rarely seen by anyone. The boys themselve had really only seen a side of it twice. Once when some visiting hockey team had cornered Logan after they had just lost and tried to beat him up, though James and Carlos helped then, leaving the two boys in a much worse state and Logan with a simple bruised lip. The other time was when his dad left when he was 8, but no one spoke of it. The boys had learned a long time ago that the topic of Mr. Knight was the dark zone, not to be entered.
Katie looked panicked, annoyed and scared all at one. Why, why WHY was HE HERE! She screamed internally as the challenge of whether to cry or hit him came.
"Kendall look we know you're mad..." Logan started but Kendall cut him off.
"Oh I'm past mad"
"We know but hitting him won't solve anything!" Logan tried to reason. He could see that the others where starting to loose their grip. Carlos actually voiced this.
"It would make me feel better! Now let me go"
"NO!" His three friends said together.
"Oh please!" Nick said from behind Logan. He happened to find this scene quite amusing. "Katie can't you control your brother"
"Hey!" This time it was Jo. "Don't you talk to her!" She stepped up next to Logan and looked at Kendall. "Look at me..." she waited until their eyes met. "Look I know you want to hit him, we all do..." and everyone nodded "But Katie's upset and she needs you" this caused Kendall to look over at his sister whose eyes were darting from Nick, with anger and Kendall with, was that fear?
Taking a deep breath, he turned to James and Carlos. "I'm ok..."
"You sure?" Carlos asked.
"Yes!" though he didn't seem it.
"And you won't hit him" James questioned. Kendall shook his head. "Not unless you want to help me?" he replied hopefully looking at the three of them.
"Tempting but not right now" Logan said nodding at the others to let him go. They did but they still flanked him as he stood to face Nick, just incase he lunged or something. But Katie jumped up quickly. "Why are you here?"
"Maybe I came to see you since you wont answer my texts or calls" he said, looking at her in a way that made all the boys annoyed. He reached out for her cheek but he quickly slapped it away.
"Ha! No likely and I think the message was clear last night...we. are. OVER" she said.
"You weren't being serious?" he asked, and it annoyed her that he was honestly surprised.
"Yes she was! I warned you, you were not to come near her again And if you try and touch her again you're dead" Kendall said taking two steps to close the gap between them.
"This is between me and Katie alright, so stay out of it" Nick said, getting right in Kendall's face.
"Look I told you last night, stay away from my sister!" Kendall replied in a tone threatening enough to make the others wince away, but Nick didn't move.
"Or what?" he smirked, poking Kendall in the chest.
"Stop him!" Logan said and the 3 jumped on him to keep him back. In between their little fights, Kendall trying to throw his best friends off and Katie trying to get Nick to leave, Bitters arrived with, was that a fog horn? Yep. The horn cut through the air harshly causing all of them to cover their ears.
"Ah good I see you've met Mr. Jacobs! This is Mr. Giffins nephew"
"WHAT!" the BTR boys and Katie yelled at once causing the horn to be blown again. "Dude stop!" Carolos begged.
"Oh didn't I meantion that?" Nick said with a sarcastic smile on his face. Another boy maybe a tear younger than Nick, with short brown hair and brown eyes, arrived behind Bitters. "Um Nick..." He looked around at the three boys holding back a taller boy and 3 girls looking thourghly pissed and he moaned "What did you do now?"
"Me, what gave you that idea?" he asked innocently.
"Because it's you! It's always you" the un named boy said with a very aggitated face. "Look I don't want to know, come on Sammy is waiting for us in the lobby and I am not carrying your stuff to the room!" and with that the other boy left. Nick turned back to the others.
"Lets continue this conversation later. I need to go call my uncle and let him know how I'm settling in" he said walking away before stopping. "Oh Katie, we'll talk later" winking at her which made Carlos and James tighten their grip on Kendall and both including Logan to glare at Nick.
"Just stay away from Katie" Kendall said before he walked away. They waited until he was gone before letting Kendall go.
"Thanks" he said sarcasticaly as he sat down. "You guys were a real help"
"Well aren't you glad we stopped you knocking Griffens' nephew into the next century" James said.
"Not particularly" Kendall said crossing his arms and pouting like a five year old. "I am!" Jo said next to him. "If you had hit him you would all be on a plane back to Minassota"
"I know you're right its just...URGH!" He groaned in frustration. He looked up at Katie. "Are you ok?"
"Yea I, I'm just going to go clear my head" she said getting up and heading out of the complex.
"Kendall are you alright?" Logan asked having returned to his seat beside Camille. He nodded. "Yea and I'm sorry you guys had to see that" he said to Camille and Logan.
"It's ok" Camille said "The next time I'm up for a role and they want me to portray fear, I know what to think of now! Well that and anger" Everybody smiled and the tension around them eased.
"I have never seen you so mad"Jo said taking his hand. He gave her a sad look "I know I'm sorry"
"Don't be. I wanted to give that jerk a piece of my mind too and you know first hand how good my Judo is!" Kendall smiled but then frowned again.
"Question. How are we suppose to get revenge on this guy when his uncle is the guy whos keeping us here in L.A.?" To that no one had an answer.
.
Katie walked through Bushwell Park before sitting under one of the trees. She didn't know why she was upset. After everything he said to her and did to her the only emotion she should show him was anger and that was there too but there was mostly hurt. A part of her was glad that Kendall and the others wanted to get revenge but that went out the window considering it was their bosses nephew.
"Urgh!" she groaned outloud, causing some kids nearby to look at her scared. She apologised and they returned to their game. She saw Tyler running through the park heading for the far exit, smiling knowing his mother was propably chasing him. He saw her and ran up to her.
"Hey Katie! Hide me!" he heard his mother and ran around the opposite side of the tree. His mother, in all her showbiz mom glory came over. "Habe you seen my son? He has an audition" she said almost on the verge of histerics.
"Oh yea I saw him! He said something about some place on Rodeo Drive?"
"Thank you...where are my keys?" she muttered to herself as she ran back the way she came. "Thak you" Tyler said coming to sit next to Katie. Now that his mother was gone he could relax.
"No problem"
"Hey are you ok?" he asked noticing she didn't seem herself.
"Um remember that guy I told you about last week?" she said, smiling internally as she remembered that the conversation came up when she was helping him once again escape his mothers ambitions for him.
"Um Nick right?"
"Yea well I caught him cheating last night" she said looking at the game and kickball taking place not to far away.
"Loser" Tyler said causing Katie to laugh.
"Oh it gets better...His uncle is Mr. Griffens. The guys whose in charge of Big Time Rush AND he's moving into the Palmwoods today. Kendall's already tried to kill him"
"I'm sorry Katie" She looked up at Tyler and smiled. When she first moved to the Palmwoods he was one of the first kids to talk to her and they were good friends. "Well I have to go before my mom comes back this way"
"Thank you" she said "For listening"
"Not a proplem" suddenly his mothers yells could be heard again "Unlike her" he said before taking off running.
Deciding that she should be heading back to the apartment she stood and made her way towards the lobby. When she enter she headed for stairs, not bothering to wait for the elevators.She kept her head down as she walked. She was halfway between the first and second floor when she walked into someone.
"Hey I'm sorry I...wait" she looked up to see the boy who had talked to Nick earlier standing infront of her. He was cute.
"You were with that group at the pool...tall angry looking guy, 3 guys holding him back..."
"Yea and you were with the 2timing scum that was annoying us" Katie replied back bitterly.
"Let me guess,you are one of my brothers ex's" he said woth a annoyed face.
"His most recent actually, as far as I know. We broke up last night after I caught him with another girl"
"Right. Look I'm sorry about my brother...he can be an idiot at times, well most of the time actually" he said. Smiling he held out his hand "Justin Jacobs"
"Katie Knight" she said smiling at his hand but not taking it. "Knight? Knight? Why does that sound familiar?"
"Um my brother, the um tall guy being restrained by the pool, well that's Kendall. He and his restrainers are in a band on your uncles label, Big Time R.."
"Rush" Justin said as it came back to him. "Yea my uncle actually said he should hang out with you guys" but then he realised "But after my brothers antics I guess not"
"Look you and your other brother can hang out but not Nick, but somehow I think we have a choice"
"Other brother? I only have Nick"
"Didn't you mention a Sammy?" Katie asked confused. Justin smiled.
"Sammy as in Samantha. She's my twin"
"Well then you and Samy are welcome in 2J but Nick, I'd rather not"
"Understood" Justin said holding his hands up. Katie started to walk away as did Justin when he called back. "Katie?"
"Yea"
"Just so you know. My brother was a fool to let you go" Katie smiled at him and quickly ran up the last few steps, praying he hadn't seen her blush. When she arrived outside 2J she stoped and smiled. Maybe their brother was a jerk but he seemed nice.
.
Jo and Kendall were in the apartment alone as the other had decided to go out, to where Kendall didn't know or care. Katie wasn't in the apartment when they got back and hadn't returned in the 15 minutes since.
"I'm sure she's fine Kendall" Jo said rubbing his arm. "Can I ask you something?" Kendall questioned turning to her.
"Sure, what do you want to know?"
"How did you get Katie to tell you what happened? I mean did she just not want to tell me herself?"
"Oh...I um told her abou the first guy who dumped me" she said looking down embarassed.
"Really?" Kendall said sitting up "Tell me" he said.
"What? No, Kendall seriously"
"Yea I want to know who the guy was" Kendall said.
"Ok, um his name was David and he dumped me. There now you know"
"Oh come on...How long were you guys together?"
"Kendall I really don't..." but the door opened and Mrs. Knight was there with the shopping bags. "Hey guys. Where's everyone?"
"Hi mom" Kendall said going over to help her with the bags. "Hey Jo" Mrs. Knight said as Jo joined them at the counter. "Where are they?" she repeated.
"Um Logan, Camille, James and Carlos have gone out and Katie is..." Jo tried to think but Kendall spoke "She's clearing her head"
"Why what happened?" Mrs. Knight asked.
"Remember I told you that she broke up with that guy she was seeing last night? Well we found out wha actually happened...Don't ask" he said cutting his mother off mis sentence.
"That bad?" she asked and Jo couldn't help but see the similarities between her and Kendall.
"Yea well long story short, he cheated, Katie saw, they broke up...anyway we were hanging out by the pool waiting for Mr. Griffins' sister's kids when Nick, her boyfriend, turned up"
"Kendall, please tell me ou didn't hit him" Mrs. Knight begged.
"No"
"Oh good" she sighed in relief.
"Only because James and Carlos held me back"
"Remind me to thank them later..." Mrs. Knight said to Jo.
"Anyways, Nick is Griffins' nephew so we can't get revenge on him oh and he's moving into the Palmwoods" The annoyance was clear on Kendall's face.
"Sweatheart just be the bigger man and promise me you wont do anything stupid"
"I'll try, that's all I'm saying" he said and his mother kissed him cheek. Now in any other house, a mother giving her teenage son a kiss in front of his girlfriend would be embarassing but Kendall didn't care. So he loved his mom, big deal. Unknown to him, Jo actually thought this was one of the best things about Kendall.
As her morther said, you can alway tell how a guy will treat you by the way he treats his mother.
I am one lucky girl, she thought to herself happily.
.
Katie arrived back to the apartment not a minute later. Her mother smiled at her and went to her room leaving Kendall, Jo and Katie alone together.
"There you are! Where did you go?" Kendall asked.
"The park...I was talking to Tyler" she said, taking a seat next to Jo on one of the bar stools.
"And did you know who show his face?" Kendall asked.
"No, HE didn't but remember that guy at the pool? The one who knew Nick?" they both nodded.
"Well it turns out that's his brother, Justin. And he has a twin sister too, Sammy. I met Justin on my way up...he's not bad actually. Griffen told them to hang out with us but I told him that him and Sammy were welcome but Nick, no way"
"I'd rather not be round any of them" Kendall said.
"Well too bad because if your little band wants to stay here in LA then I'd be nicer if I were you" Nick said from the doorway"
"Dude you have to stop doing that" Jo said. That was the second time today he had snuck up on them.
"Get out of my apartment before I throw you out" Kendall said slowly. Don't hit him, don't hit him, he repeated to himself.
"Really, well then do it" Nick said. Kendall took a step forward but then two people apeared behind Nick, Justin and a girl with short brown hair and brown eyes who she assumed to be Sammy.
"Nick let's just leave" Justin said putting a hand on his brother's shoulder. "Come on we don't want trouble and I will not be able to stop him if he hits you" he said refering to Kendall.
"Yea Nick, just grow up and lets go I want to go to the pool" Sammy said from behind him.
"Dude leave" Justin said, pulling Kick to the door.
"I'll see you guys later" and he turned and left. Katie walked up to Nick. "Thank you"
"Don't mention it! My brother's an idiot...Oh Katie this is Sammy" he said pointing to her. She gave Katie a small wave. "Justin told me what Nick did...I'm sorry"
"Not your fault...this is Kendall my brother and that's Jo his girlfriend" the four raised hands at eachother. "Well we'll be going now" Jusitn said leaving, Sammy first.
"Again thank you" Katie said. He smiled as she closed the door.
"You know what, he's not so bad" Kendall said.
