Okay, all I'm gonna say is this is my longest chapter ever and it took forever to write! I really like it though, and it has a good Carlos moment. ;-)

"Ow! That hurt!" I said as Ali was fixing my hair. It was pulled back in a ponytail and she was curling it into a million tiny curls. It was the night of the premiere, and I was kinda freaking out. This was a red-carpet event, my first one, and I don't think I'm ready for this.

"Sorry! You keep moving your head." Ali said.

"That's because I can't believe it's already here! In case you haven't noticed, I'm freaking out about this." I said. I heard the front door open.

"Bi, is that you?" Ali called from her room. She had a good vanity in there, and good lighting.

"No, it's me." Carlos called from the other room. There was a pause, then "Where are you guys?"

"My room. Come on in." He walked down the hall and soon his head popped in from the doorway.

"Hey, I brought you some licorice." He smiled holding up a bag from the drug store down the street. I smiled and laughed.

"Umm… Thanks, but why again?"

"Because, the first time I went to one of these things, I was freaking out. So James gave me some licorice, and I calmed down. I figured you would be freaking out too, so I just got some down the street." I got up and hugged him.

"Thanks Carlos. You are too sweet! Ali better keep a good hand on you." I joked, and Ali rolled her eyes.

"It was no problem. Small FYI, I may have eaten some on the way over…" Ali and I laughed.

"Of course you did." Ali said and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "The guys are coming for tacos tonight, right?" Carlos nodded.

"Yup, and Kendall's bringing Jessie." He smiled. I turned around.

"He is?" He nodded. "He asked her?" He nodded again. "Yay! I'm so proud of him! That's great!" I smiled. I talked to Jessie a few times since the market, and she was really sweet. Carlos and I had been trying to get Kendall to ask her out, but he kept messing up with it.

"I know! He was so happy when he came home from the market yesterday." Carlos smiled. "Anyway, I better run. Just wanted to stop by and give you this. See you guys in a few hours." He said and gave Ali a quick kiss and tapped my head.

"Hey-hey-hey! Watch the hair!" Ali said. Carlos pulled back and laughed.

"Sorry! So sorry!" He smiled and walked out the door. I laughed.

"He didn't mess it up that bad, ya know." I smiled.

"I know, but we still have a lot to do. Now sit, and let me finish." She laughed. I sighed and sat down.

"God, I freaking love tacos!" Bi sang in the kitchen. I laughed by the counter. My hair and make-up was done, but I was still in sweatpants and a tank top. I was not putting on my dress yet. No, way. Wasn't risking it.

"Do you love tacos? Do you really?" Ali laughed. Bi smiled.

"Of course! What's not to love?"

"As much as you love James?" I joked. She threw a clump of cheese at me. "Is that a no?"

"I don't love James! We are friends!" She laughed.

"Sure…" Ali and I said in unison.

"Better start making those tacos, the guys and Jessie should be here any minute. And something tells me they will be hungry." Ali said. I nodded.

"I have a feeling of that too. Gotta keep your man full Bi." I smiled.

"You guys seriously suck." She stuck out her tongue.

"We know." I smiled.

"And you love us for it." Ali added.

"Sadly, that's true." Bi laughed. There was a knock at the door, and I got up to answer it. I opened the door to a camera.

"Well, look at the movie star." James smiled from behind the lens. Carlos, Logan, Kendall, and Jessie walked in behind him. I laughed.

"Because, I look so beautiful right now! Sweatpants are the newest thing from Calvin Klein, haven't you heard?" I joked. Logan came up behind me and gave me a hug.

"I think you do look beautiful." He whispered.

"That's what the boyfriend always said." I smiled.

"But in this case, it's true." He kissed my cheek. We all went to the kitchen and stood around as Bi was making tacos.

"How much longer?" Carlos asked.

"A few minutes…" Bi replied, not taking her eyes off what she was doing.

"Let the chef work Carlos! She'll be done soon." Ali smiled. Carlos groaned and sat down on the couch. More like, fell on the couch. James, Kendall, Logan, and Jessie followed, while Ali and I stayed to help Bi. She agreed to let Ali help, but not me apparently.

"No, it's your big night. Go socialize. Or I will kick your little booty." Bi joked. I sighed and went and sat down, just as the guys were talking about some movie they saw last night. I sat near Jessie, who looked just as confused as I was.

"Any idea what they're talking about?" I leaned over to her.

"No freaking clue." She laughed. She looked at me. "Nervous about tonight?"

"Just a bit…" I replied, freaking out inside. She could see that.

"It's going to be fine. Just smile, and relax. Apparently they can tell if you're nervous." She smiled. I nodded.

"Apparently?" I smiled.

"I guess so. That's what Kendall says."

"Oh… And he'd know." I smiled.

"He would." She laughed. Almost on cue…

"Who would?" Kendall came up behind us.

"You would." Jessie said.

"I would what?" He smiled.

"That, is none of your business." I said. Jessie nodded.

"Really?" He said.

"It's really not. Just girl talk." She smiled.

"Ah… Girl talk…" Kendall shuttered, causing me and Jessie to laugh.

"Tacos are ready!" Bi yelled from the kitchen. Carlos practically fell of the couch trying to get up, causing the room to erupt in laughter.

"Nice job there Carlos, never seen you this excited." James laughed holding out a hand to help him up. Carlos stood up, shook his head, and walked to the kitchen like nothing happened, causing us to laugh more. He just looked at everyone.

"I'm freaking hungry! What did you expect?" Ali went up and hugged him, still laughing. "Psh, it was worth it. Look who's first?" He held up a plate with a taco.

"Dibs second!" James hopped over the couch.

"Okay, so I'm thinking the guys go first…" Bi said. "And then we can go get what's left." She laughed.

"I'm thinking the same thing…" I laughed.

"I am totally up for that!" Kendall walked past.

"I think it's a deal." Logan kissed my cheek and walked past. I shook my head.

"Boys." I laughed.

"Who need 'em?" Ali smiled. Carlos came up behind her.

"Okay, that hurts." He pouted, causing Ali to laugh.

"Except for you sweetie. I guess someone needs you." She patted his head. He rolled his eyes and laughed. We all got our tacos and when we finished, Ali stood up.

"Okay, I have a brilliant idea." Everyone looked at her. "Bi, Jessie, and I help Kenz finish getting ready, and you guys do the dishes." She smiled devilishly. The guys groaned. "Please?" Ali pouted.

"Uggh…" Carlos stood up. "Why are you so cute? Fine…. We'll do the freaking dishes. But you owe us." He said. Ali smiled and grabbed my hand, pulling me up.

"Okay! Kenz, let's go! Girls…" And she dragged me off to her room, and Bi and Jessie followed. I could hear the guys in the other room saying 'What do we do with this?'. I couldn't tell who it was though.

I pulled on my dress and stood in front of the mirror while Ali made sure everything looked okay with my hair. I couldn't believe that was me looking at myself. My hair was in a ponytail, but Ali somehow made it look formal, and pretty. My dress was lime green, went just above my knees and was quite puffy. It wrapped around my waist and had a little flower on it on the side, and spaghetti straps. I had on white heels, and my star necklace shown beautifully. I could barely believe it was a mirror.

"Kenz… You look gorgeous!" Bi said.

"Thanks…" I breathed.

"I really hope your hair doesn't get messed up…" Ali said, playing with my hair.

"I don't think it will unless you keep doing that." Jessie smiled. Bi turned to her.

"I think you'll fit right into this little group, sweetie." She laughed. Ali turned around and stuck out her tongue at the two of them. I laughed.

"I love you guys." I said. Ali looked at me.

"Oh my God you are so nervous!" She smiled.

"How the hell do you do that?" I laughed.

"We're practically twins. You get good at it after a while." She smiled and hugged me. "Relax! Eat some licorice Carlos gave you." She pulled one out of a bag. I shook my head.

"I don't think so… If I eat any more, I may barf…" I'm surprised the tacos were staying down.

"Okay then." She looked at the clock. "We better get you gone. Stay here one second." I turned around.

"Why…"

"You'll see." She grabbed Bi and Jessie and they walked out the door. I walked over by the door to hear what they were saying.

"You guys ready?" Ali said.

"For what?" James asked.

"Okay, Logan are you ready to see your pretty girlfriend?" Bi said.

"Should I be?" He asked.

"You guys are hard to please." Jessie said. She really did fit right in. "Kenzie, come on out!" She yelled down the hallway. I took a deep breath, and stepped out of Ali's room, and walked down the hall. All I heard then were a bunch of gasps. I smiled, and looked around. They were all smiling, which made me laugh.

"You guys look silly." I laughed. Ali looked at me.

"Okay, I need pictures!" That made me burst out laughing.

"You sound like my mother at prom." I smiled. She winked.

"You remember that." She grabbed a camera. "Smile!" I gave her a big smile and there was a flash. "Okay, Kendall, take a picture of us girls." She handed the camera to Kendall, who gladly took it and stood up. Bi, Ali, and Jessie got in next to me and Kendall snapped a picture.

"Okay, now the guys need a picture with the star here." Bi said. She took the camera and the guys came in next to me. She snapped a picture, and then the guys all picked me up and she took a picture of all of us laughing. Then there was a picture of all 8 of us together, and then one of me and Logan, with his hands around my waist. We also took pictures of Carlos and Ali, Kendall and Jessie, and James and Bi agreed to take a picture together. Then Ali pushed me out the door.

"Leave! Take deep breaths, and remember every detail, because I want to hear all of them." She rushed me out the door. She gave me a quick hug, and everyone shouted good-bye's and good-luck's. The door shut, and I took a deep breath and headed down the hall.

Right as I took a step on the stairs I heard a door open.

"Kenz, wait up!" I turned around to see Logan jogging down the hall.

"Yes?" I smiled at him.

"I forgot one thing…" He smiled and gave me a kiss. I smiled.

"You just ruined my lip gloss." I laughed.

"I'm so sorry." He smiled.

"It was worth it." I smiled.

"Good. Okay, now go! You're gonna be late." He shooed me down the hall. I laughed and walked down the hallway, to the thing that was making my stomach crawl.
