Chapter 6 – With

Holding a Venti Mocha latte, Carlos collapses on the leather cushioned sofa of Rocque Records. Logan follows slowly behind sucking his cold beverage and watching the furry brows squint together on the Latino's head forming the cutest expression.

"At least we cooled off." Logan tries to alleviate the fruitless situation. He falls on Carlos' side, slightly tickling him with his sharp pelvis bone. "Cheer up Buck-O. I had fun going to three different Starbucks ordering a mocha latte at every single one."

Carlos smiles and pulls Logan into a bear crushing hug. "I guess it was fun but why are we here on a day we don't have work?"

"Because Rocque Record has these fun couches and Kendall is here." Logan peels himself from the suffocating hold.

"But I want to play with James." Carlos whines. "James is fun and I want him to help me find the next clue."

"Well, James is busy today tanning by the pool." Logan throws the cup in the trash can, missing by a mile.

Carlos laughs and accurately throws his in. "You need help Logie." Carlos roughs Logan's spikes, giggling.

"DOGS!" A roar blasts through the close door startling them. "GET IN HERE!"

The two of them jump off the couch, briskly running in the room. They grit their teeth noticing an exasperated look on their blonde leader's face.

"I am writing a new song and ALL THREE OF YOU ARE ANNOYING ME!" Gustavo yells slamming the desk with his fist. He is probably going through his usual weekly tantrums. Unfortunately for anyone at the office on the ill timed day, Gustavo gets extremely verbal.

"He's been yelling at me for the last hour. Thanks a lot Logan." Kendall whispers through his teeth. "Remind me again why I have to be here."

"Why are you here, Ken-dog?" Carlos hops happily to him, unfazed by Gustavo's obvious anger.

"Ok guys." Kelly awkwardly laughs. "You can leave now, Gustavo obviously needs some alone time." The three, without a doubt, sprint out the door.

"I don't know about you but I'm going to get a mocha cappuccino and met my tall mo-"

"Boyfriend on the phone." Logan finishes Kendall's sentence. "And stay here and away from the pool." He ticks his head to Carlos who is staring deeply at his reflection a curved vase.

"You know if you look here, my body looks skinner than Logan's." Carlos points to the vase.

"No your body is perfect, I mean ARG!" Logan smacks himself. Kendall laughs at his slip up.

"Fine, I'll go to the balcony, call my non-coffee tanned boyfriend instead of getting a mocha cap in the kitchen."

"Wait what Kendall." Carlos jumps in front of him. "The kitchen has the San-Yo coffee machine with built in mocha latte maker?"

"Yep, Gustavo fixed it after you broke it last year."

Carlos lights up and grabs Logan's arm. "I know where the next clue is." He exclaims pulling him to the kitchen. "It's right here." He points to the Japanese prototype.

"Umm Carlos." Logan stares at the overly hyped boy. "I don't think it has it."

"Yes it does!" Carlos bends forward eying the two green dots in the coffee maker as if they are eyes. "Mr. Coffee, can I have the clue, please?"

No.

"See it has it." Carlos looks at Logan.

"No is ambiguous Carlos, beside the stupid machine has no idea what you are talking about." The genius shakes his head.

Voice recognition program activate. Logan Mitchell a.k.a. OCD know it all and Carlos Garcia, adorable boy who is looking for a prom date though clues.

"Logie, listen. Mr. Coffee knows everything." Logan rolls his eyes getting a cup of water. "Mr. Coffee, do you have my clue?"

No. Carlos drops his head. But I know who you are looking for. Carlos springs back.

"Who is it?" Logan scoffs laughing in his seat. "As if the stupid piece of metal knows anything."

June 1 – Two people talked. First voice said "Sure I will help with the Game. I love helping love."

Logan's eyes widen. "Carlos, the machine is stupid." He stutters shaking Carlos' arm to leave.

"No Logie, I told you that Mr. Coffee is a genius. Continue."

Second voice, high pitch, annoying, weird, needs a haircut, throws like a girl-

"Ok!" Logan shrieks. "I bet the second voice is good looking too and the machine is stupid. Let's go Carlos. I think the clue is by the pool with-"

"Shhhh, Logie." Carlos puts his finger on Logan's lips. "I want to know what Mr. Coffee knows."

As I said, second voice said "Thanks Kelly, I need everything to be special for Carlos. I like him a lot."

First voice replied "Carlos sure is special. And don't worry I bet Carlos will love you, Lo-"

"Break already!" Logan yells hitting the machine with a baseball bat (left by Kelly). "Stupid machine."

"Stop it Logie." Carlos wraps his arms around the manic and tries to pull him away. "Mr. Coffee knows who."

"Mr. Coffee is stupid." He bashes the machine again as a spray of foam shoots at the two. Logan trips and falls backwards on the Latino.

Foam defense activate.

"This is what happened the last time!" Carlos dashes for the door, closing it.

"Why did you close it?" Logan yells slipping on the foamy floor.

"So Gustavo won't see it." Carlos slides into the brunette. "He is going to kill us if he finds out we broke Mr. Coffee again."

Logan.

"What?"

Logan jumps up and smacks the machine again. "Nothing Carlos."

L-love you, Logan.

"Shut up you stupid machine" Logan repeatedly bashes the appliance disregarding the streams of milky foam attacking his face.

After countless swings, Logan tiredly collapses on the bed of waist high foam. He closes his eyes and contently sighs that the machine is broken. Suddenly, a giant tan figure jumps on him rubbing more of the bubbles on Logan's face.

"Carlos!" He screams feeling his friend rolling on top of him in the foam. "Where is your shirt?"

"On the hook above the bubbles." He throws the malleable mess at the boy. "I don't want my shirt to get dirty."

Logan laughs back wrestling the boy for control on the floor. "I'm going to win Carlitos." Logan tickles him collecting the fluff on the boy. Carlos joins the laughter playing with his friend in the mess.

"God, Logie!" Carlos sighs, a smile plastered on his face after they crawl out the kitchen. "I haven't had this much fun since… forever."

"Really?" Logan crawls out sitting against the wall with him. "I thought you said the scavenger hunt for your date is the most fun."

Carlos shrugs his shoulders, playfully jabbing his friend. "I guess but the only reason why the hunt is so much fun is because I get to search with you."

Logan smiles playing with his finger on his lap, oblivious to the obvious blush painted across his face. And it intensifies as a tan head rests on the jiggery fingers.

"I missed the last time we took a bubble bath." Carlos innocently states adding to Logan's embarrassment. "You remember?"

Logan shakes his head of the memory.

Carlos closes his eyes, recalling the memory. "We were four and you were sleeping over my house. My parents were out and my sister baby sat us and." Carlos chuckles bouncing on Logan's lap. "And I was playing with a bottle of chocolate syrup and you were pouring yourself a glass of milk. I guess we were never meant to be bartenders."

Logan chuckles remembering the rest of the night. "Yea, I remember now, your sister was freaking out about us and panicked. She ran to the bathroom, poured the whole bottle of bubble bath soap and locked us in the bathroom until we are both clean."

Carlos sighs folding both his arms under his head. "I remember making bubble mustaches on you and throwing bubble bombs at your face."

"And I remember you couldn't sit still and constantly splashed and rolled me in the foam."

Carlos laughs opening his eyes and looking at Logan's. "I guess we haven't changed much have we?"

Shaking his head, Logan replies, "Nope, you're still the four year old I remember."

Carlos wipes his finger on the residue on his pant onto Logan lips. "And you still look like the mustached four year old I remember."

Logan laughs wiping the fluff off his mouth. "God, Carlos, only with you, I would jump into a tub or room of girlie bubbles."

"Hey, you're the one who attacked Mr. Coffee." Carlos shoots. "Why didn't you want me to find out?"

Logan rubs the back of his neck. "I'm having a lot of fun on the whole hunting game with you. I don't want it to end." He whispers the latter part.

Carlos sits up holding Logan's hand. "We will hang out after the prom and during prom too. Beside, I want to go to prom with you … as in with my date and you and your date going together."

Logan laughs eying their hand. "Sure Carlos."

"Hey Logan!" They hear Kendall's voice echoes through the hallway. "Can I go back to my hot mocha boyfriend yet?"

"You're what boyfriend?" Carlos jumps up staring at Kendall. He tugs Logan's arm. "James has my clue!"

"Ah, Carlos." Logan yells feeling his arm being yanked off as Carlos drags him pass Kendall. "Stay here." He whispers to the leader.

At the pool

An unsuspecting tan bystander smiles reading the texts he receives. "God I love my Kendy." He says reading on his phone You are sexy when you tan for me.

"James!" Carlos' voice booms across the pool and a second later, a phone is spiraling in the air.

"AH!" A high pitch shriek cries after a splash. "What are you doing Carlos?"

"Got it!" Carlos raises his letter holding arm out of the water. "Logie I got it. I knew James is the mocha goodness I'm looking for."

"I am not." James complains climbing out of the pool. "I'm Kendall's mocha goodness." He dries himself with a towel Logan hands him.

"Where is Kendall?" Carlos asks Logan before opening the envelope. Logan shrugs his shoulder.

"Why don't you open it?"

"I want Kendall here. He helped us figure out James has it." He pouts.

"Please, you would have found the clue tonight." James adds, obviously still mad at Carlos for tackling him in the water. "We live in the same house."

"Open it Carlos." Logan adds texting on his phone.

"Fine." Carlos tears the wet cover. "The word is 'with' and…"

"What is it?" Logan asks watching a smile grow on the perfect pink lips.

"This scavenger hunt became hide-and-go-seek." Carlos gleefully throws the letter to Logan.

'Tall blonde and Eyebrows'

HAHA Pretty cliché clue XD… I planned this and next chapter since Tall blonde and Eyebrows described James as "hot, dark, and steamy" prompting this chapter. I bet you know who this clue is referring to. It's Jo. JKJK
