Chapter 6: Movie Night Mayhem

Logan pulled Kendall's mom's car into the field of the farm. He pulled into between the two hay bales Kendall had set up earlier. Kendall was helping him learn to drive. He was helping with his parking and turning right now. They had been driving on the highway and Logan had that down. They were using Kendall's mothers car since it was easier for Logan.

"I don't think I can do this," Logan said looking over at Kendall.

"Just relax," Kendall said softly. He was trying to find a way to get Logan to relax. He was too tense.

"Well I've only been driving a few times and I can't really back up that well," Logan admitted.

"I'll be here to walk you through it," Kendall said. Logan sighed and nodded his head signaling he was ready. "Ok, no just put it in reverse," Kendall instructed. Logan nodded his head and did as he was told. "Now just step on the gas," he said. Logan did and they backed up a bit too fast.

"Stop, stop, stop," Kendall repeated while laughing.

"See," Logan said laughing as well.

"You'll get the hang of it," Kendall said. "Put it in drive and get back to where we were. Just gently press on the gas this time," Kendall instructed. Logan nodded his head.

They spent the rest of most of the afternoon like that. Kendall would tell Logan what to do and Logan would do it to the best of his abilities. Kendall would sometimes have to explain things with a bit more detail but Logan picked up things quick.

-Perfect-

Camille and Katie were sitting together at the picnic table when Logan drove into the field. They knew Kendall was teaching Logan to drive, so they didn't pay them much mind.

The two had been hanging out a lot more lately. Things had gotten better ever since they had it out in the park. Camille got rid of her guilt and Katie had been getting better about the chair. Camille was there to help her and Katie in turn helped Camille. She made her forget the stares people gave her. She didn't hear the nasty remarks anymore.

"So, homecoming is coming up," Katie said casually.

"I know, I've got guys already asking me to the dance already," Camille said nodding her head.

"Who?" Katie asked.

"Well there was Carlos, but when doesn't he ask me out," Camille said looking over at Katie. Carlos almost asked her out on a daily basis and she turned him down on a daily basis.

"That's true, he's got like the biggest crush on you," Katie laughed. The both looked over at the car. It backed up straight into a hay bale. Katie let out a small hiss as she watched the car.

"Isn't that your moms car?" Camille asked.

"Yeah, ooh he is so dead," Katie said shaking her head.

"It's not that bad, it's just hay," Camille said laughing.

"Yeah, but if he dents the car mom will kill him," Katie said. The two of them laughed as the car lurched forward and Logan and Kendall could be heard almost yelling and laughing. Camille and Katie shared a looked before laughing again.

"So what about you Katie, anyone ask you to homecoming?" Camille asked redirecting the conversation back to homecoming.

"A few guys, no one who really catches my interest, beside I think they're only asking me out of pity," Katie said.

"Katie," Camille warned.

"I know, I don't pity myself, I'm saying they pity me," Katie said. Camille nodded her head. They continued to talk about homecoming and watch Kendall and Logan drive about the field.

Once the two finished Kendall and Logan returned to the field and sat down with the girls. They quickly jumped into the talk about homecoming. Logan said he was probably going with James. He wasn't sure what James wanted to do yet though. Kendall had made a decision to go stag. They all sat around talking and laughing until it started to get dark.

"I've gotta go, if I'm late my mom will throw another fit," Logan sighed as he stood up.

"Well since, you can't drive without a licensed driver in the car I guess I've gotta go to," Kendall teased.

"See you guys later," Camille said.

"Yeah, Katie you got a ride home?" Kendall asked.

"Yeah, Camille," Katie said looking at the other brunette. Camille nodded her head.

"Come on Logie, let's get you home," Kendall said. The two left the field and to the car they had parked up by the house.

-Perfect-

James sighed as he rested his hand on his chin. He was in a local diner with Carlos, Kendal and Logan. It was Sunday and they had nothing better to do. James and Logan were sitting on one side of the booth while Carlos and Kendall sat on the other side.

James wasn't really paying much mind to the conversations his friends were having. He was thinking about his mother. She had just up and left Friday night saying she had a business trip. James knew she was probably off somewhere in a hotel with some married man. He knew all she cared about was making money and having fun while doing it. It was where James had picked up his attitude. She always told him, 'If you're not having fun, life's not worth living.'

James disagreed with her actions, but she was right. It tired to have fun with his life. He lived everyday to the fullest the best that he could. He didn't hold back anything. He spoke his mind and did as he pleased. He stepped on anyone who got in his way.

"I can't wait for thanksgiving break," Carlos said bringing James from his thought.

"That's still a few weeks away," Kendall said shaking his head as he looked at the Latino shocked.

"So, we get three days off from school," Carlos said.

"It's still like two weeks away," Logan countered.

"So," Carlos said. Kendall and Logan shook their heads. "Come on James what about you, you excited for three days off?" he asked.

"It's still two weeks away," James said.

"See, even he thinks it's a little early to be thinking about that, beside the homecoming dance is this Friday," Kendall said.

"You got a date?" Carlos asked.

"No, how about you?" Kendall said.

"Lucy and Stephanie are throwing hints they want to go with me, but I'm not sure which one to ask," Carlos stated.

"Dude, go with Lucy she's hot," James said looking over at the Latino.

"Cause that's what I want my boyfriend to say while I'm around," Logan muttered.

"I said she's hot, I can't help it that she was born that way, besides I'm dating you," James said looking over at Logan who only rolled his eyes.

"Anyways," Carlos said changing the subject. "So what are we gonna do tonight?"

"Movie night duh," Kendall said looking at the Latino like he was crazy. Once a month the four of them had a movie night together. Depending on who's house they went to it was usually just the four of them. If they went to Kendall's house Katie would join them once in a while.

"I mean who's house?" Carlos corrected himself.

"My mom's gonna be out of town for a few more days," James stated. It was true, she probably wouldn't be back until Monday morning, maybe even Tuesday.

"So movie night at your place then?" Logan asked looking at James.

"Yep, my mom won't care as long as we don't break anything of hers," James shrugged.

"Sound like a plan then," Carlos said looking over at Kendall and Logan. They both nodded their heads in agreement.

-Perfect-

Logan jumped out of Kendall's truck and Kendall was right behind him. Kendall had been complaining about the movie night being at James' ever since they had left the diner and arrived home. Logan had gone over to Kendall's to avoid his mother. She was home and he hadn't wanted to deal with her.

They had their over night bags incase they fell asleep. They usually did during movie nights. They usually just crashed at whoever's house they were at. None of their parents seemed to mind.

"So," Kendall said as they walked up to the door.

"Don't even think about it, the farm is one thing, but not at his house," Logan said.

"I wasn't-" Kendall started.

"Bull shit Knight, you were too," Logan said looking over at the blonde who was grinning.

"Fine, fine, I won't do anything," Kendall laughed shaking his head. They reached the door and knocked. The door opened to reveal a bouncing Carlos. "Digging into the candy already?" Kendall asked.

"Maybe," Carlos grinned. Kendall shook his head. Carlos stepped aside and let the two into the house. He explained that he and James were making the snacks and to just go get things ready in the living room. Kendall and Logan nodded their heads. They headed to the living room and started looking through the movies James had set out. They were mostly horror and action films, and maybe a few comedies.

Kendall and Logan picked out a movie and put it in. It wasn't a scary one. They chose a comedy they had all seen several times. They made their usual pallet of blankets and pillows on the floor. Kendall and Logan then sat down on the floor with their back against the couch.

James and Carlos eventually joined the two with all the snacks they had prepared. The four sat down in silence to watch the first movie. They didn't really talk like they normally did. They were all to busy with their own thoughts.

Kendall kept sneaking glances at Logan in the dark. When Logan would look over at him he'd look away. He knew Logan wouldn't say anything, cause that would make James suspicious. Logan settled with pinching the blonde every once in awhile. Kendall kept quiet as well. He'd poke the brunette every time he pinched him. James and Carlos were oblivious to everything.

The movie ended and the guys all stood up and stretched out a bit. James headed to the bathroom while Carlos headed to the kitchen in search of something to drink, leaving Kendall and Logan alone.

"The movie still makes me laugh no matter how many times I see," Logan said looking at the blonde who nodded his head in agreement.

"That's why I picked it," Kendall said.

"So, what next?" Logan asked moving over to the stack of movies.

"I think we should let James or Carlos pick," Kendall said moving over to stand behind Logan. Logan tensed as he felt the blonde's breath on his neck.

"Not here," Logan hissed.

"We're alone," Kendall said lowly. Logan looked over his shoulder at the blonde. He shot him a glare.

"No," Logan said.

"Come on," Kendall pleaded. He leaned in and brushed his lips against Logan's neck. "On kiss," he said.

"Kendall," Logan warned.

"Come on, your lips are just too inviting," Kendall purred.

"Oh please, you just like to take risks," Logan said.

"You should take more risks," Kendall said lowly. Logan turned his head and pressed his lips to Kendall's lips. Kendall grinned into the kiss as he grabbed Logan's hips from behind.

"Hey guys I was thinking instead of another comedy we could…"

Kendall and Logan sprang apart and looked to Carlos shocked. Carlos was standing in the entrance to the living room.

"We could watch a scary movie this time," Carlos said. He walked over to the movie pile.

"Carlos," Logan said slowly.

Carlos just shook his head and grabbed a movie. He put it in the player and sat down. Kendall and Logan looked at one another scared that Carlos was going to tell James.

"Carlos look," Kendall started. Carlos shook his head once more.

James returned and Carlos started the movie. Logan sat down next to James, but not as close as before. Kendall sat down away from Logan this time. James seemed oblivious to everything. He eventually scooted a bit closer to Logan though. Logan nearly flinched when James touched him. James was either really dumb or just didn't say anything.

Soon the room started to feel too small for Logan. He felt like he was suffocating. He had to get some fresh air. He excused himself from the room and told James he just needed some air. He headed out to the front porch. He sat down on the swing out there. His mind was racing and he couldn't get it to stop.

Logan didn't know why he had given into Kendall like that. James and Carlos hadn't been that far away. He had known that either of them could've walked in at any second. He had knew there was a risk, yet he still gave into Kendall. He didn't know why. It had to be those damn eyebrows. Those were Logan's weakness and Kendall knew it too. Hell Kendall in general was Logan's weakness.

Then there was James. He had cheated on James again. He had lost count on how many times exactly, but this time it was in his own house. Logan had kissed Kendall in James' living room while the pretty boy was only a few rooms away. Logan put his face in his hands and groaned. Things were just way to complicated for him.

"You know I should tell him."

Logan looked up and saw Carlos standing a few feet away from him. Logan's face paled as the Latino shook his head. He walked over to Logan and sat down.

"Carlos please don't," Logan said desperately.

"Why not? I mean he deserves to know," Carlos said.

"Then tell me how many times he's really cheated on me," Logan demanded glaring at the Latino. Carlos' face fell and he looked away from Logan. "I thought so," Logan sighed. He knew James cheated more times than Logan had caught him.

"Yeah, but he never cheated on you with a friend," Carlos said looking at Logan.

"Look, it was only a few times and we're gonna stop as soon as Kendall gets a boyfriend," Logan said looking down at his feet. That was his plan. He was going to find Kendall a boyfriend so he'd stop fooling around with him. It wasn't good for Kendall for Logan to keep leading him on like this. Sure, Logan liked the attention from Kendall, but he had his reasons for not dating Kendall and picking James over him.

"Does Kendall know that?" Carlos asked.

Logan shook his head pathetically. He really felt bad about all of this, and now he was asking Carlos to lie for him. He was just digging himself into a hole and getting in deeper and deeper. He wasn't sure if he'd ever be able to get out of this one without hurting someone.

"Please Carlos, just don't tell him," Logan pleaded.

"Fine, but I think you should," Carlos sighed.

"Is that what you tell James when you catch him? Or is it different because he's your best friend," Logan said looking over at Carlos curiously. Carlos didn't say anything and Logan shook his head. "I thought so," he said. He stood up and headed back inside. He couldn't believe Carlos right now. He lectured Logan about telling the truth, yet never once forced James to tell the truth. Logan just hoped he could trust the Latino to keep his word.

Logan walked into the living room and saw Kendall and James still watching the movie. Logan sat down next to James once more.

"You ok?" James asked.

"Yeah fine," Logan nodded his head. He settled into watch the movie and Carlos joined them a bit later. He made sure not to sit beside Logan.

-Perfect-

"Wow, she wrote you all these letters?" Katie asked looking at the stacks of envelopes on the table in front of her. She was sitting at Camille's kitchen table with Camille.

"Yeah, it's what her grandmother did for her and she did it for me. I think it was so I would have a way to remember her after she was gone," Camille said smiling.

Katie looked at the envelopes. There were dozens of envelopes on the table. Katie didn't read them though. They were Camille's letters. She respected that.

"She wrote down some of the more important days we've had together," Camille said smiling thoughtfully.

"I don't remember my grandmother much," Katie admitted. Her grandmother had died when she was young. She did remember that her grandmother always wore way too much perfume that smelled like peppermints. It was one of the few things Katie remembered.

"She always had these quotes she would tell me too, I found this in her trunk as well," Camille said pulling a book out from underneath the mess of envelopes. It was an old leather bound book with a ribbon in it to mark a page as well as other little pieces of scrap paper sticking out.

"So either she was wise or she found something someone said and used it at the right time?" Katie asked.

"Exactly," Camille said grinning. Katie laughed at that and Camille joined her. "There is one in here that is perfect for you though that she even told me when I was younger," Camille said.

"What?" Katie asked curiously.

"Never let anybody define who you are, people will only love you as much as you love yourself," Camille said simply.

Katie just smiled and nodded her head. Camille was right. That fit her so well right now. Over the last few months she had let people define her. She had let them treat her how she felt. Up until recently she felt like a cripple. She felt like she couldn't really do anything on her own. She had let people think that because it was how she felt, but not anymore. Camille had helped her realize that.

"You're right," Katie said after a bit.

"I know I am," Camille laughed. Katie laughed as well and looked at her phone. "Can I stay the night?" Katie asked.

"Sure, we could make a fort in the living room and sleep down here," Camille said. Katie smiled and nodded her head. "I've got to ask my mom first though," she said. Katie nodded her head as she called Jennifer.
