Chapter 6: Lions, Tigers, and Bears...Oh My!

A/N: Well I decided to write another chapter, even though it has been like forever since I have gotten the chance to. I now have issues with my eye sights every time I see something not just the computer screen, even a billboard or whiteboard, the letters get blurry to me and it is hard for me to see from far. I think I might need glasses even though my vision is 20/20. The thought scares me…anyways so I have also decided to try an O/C kind of ordeal. I'll give you guys the info later on or if not next chapter because the O/C character plays a big role in the story...later on in the story that's why I haven't told you guys yet about it. Any ways I am going to stop blabbering and let you guys read on.

Frozen inside without your touch; Without your love, darling; Only you are the life among the dead; All of this time, I can't believe I couldn't see

Kept in the dark, but you were there in front of me; I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems; Got to open my eyes to everything; Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul; Don't let me die here; There must be something more; Bring me to life

Evanescence-Bring Me To Life

Mrs. Knight came running from the kitchen as soon as she heard the loud noise in the living room. "What happened?"" We don't know Logan just fell to the ground", everyone in the room just stared as Carlos Garcia picked up his now still friend from the floor. "Logan, wake up buddy…Logan?" the sound of Carlos's please were hard for the rest of them to hear, but Carlos wouldn't stop asking the same question. Camille, who was now more in shock rather than worry, wasn't moving an inch. Her gaze was toward Logan. Many thoughts ran towards each one of them to why he collapsed to the floor.

"Was it something I said Logan?" Carlos was still in attempt to try to get a reaction from Logan, but nothing was heard. "Carlos, he can't hear you". James was just trying to figure how this all happened so sudden.

Logan's POV:

My body felt numb I couldn't tell where I was the next thing I knew I was seeing black. I could hear Carlos asking something, it was very faint but I could tell it was Carlos. I wanted to answer whatever he was asking, but my voice was gone.

The next thing I knew it was cold, a little too cold….wait what the ? Why was it cold, was I dead? The next thing I knew it I was back into reality where everyone was around me in a circle. I felt wet and cold…I didn't realize that I was shivering so much. "What happened?" To be quite honest I didn't realize that I was out cold.

"OH MY GOSH LOGAN, ARE YOU OK?" Camille's grasp was harder than ever, I could have responded to her question but she was sucking the life force out of me. Even though her hugging did warm me up a bit. "W-w-what h-happened?" It was hard to ask due to my stuttering of the cold. "A-and w-w-w-why am I wet?" "You just collapsed in the floor when Carlos asked you about checking out the circus that just came into town." My back received goose bumps not because I was soaking in cold water, but after the mention of the circus…maybe that was why I fainted. "Camille you're not letting Logan breathe properly", I was breathing ok why Carlos was so defensive. "I-I'm f-f-fine C-C-Carlos. W-Who p-p-p-oured fr-freezing w-water o-o-on me?" every one of the eyes in the room pointed to my answer…typical Katie…" Sorry I panicked Logan you were out cold for a while, thought you might have left us there for a minute". "Thanks Katie, hope I don't develop a cold". "Why worry Gustavo gave us the day off so I guess getting a cold won't be much of a worry now would it Logie?" Carlos always thought of a way to turn a negative situation into a positive one.

Everyone had already left to attend to their recent activities, Mrs. Knight was cleaning the kitchen, Kendall left with Jo to the Palm Woods lobby, and the only ones that were left by my side were James, Camille, and Carlos. "You ok, Logan want me to get you a glass of water?" couldn't Carlos see that I was already covered in water? His generosity made me smile, I couldn't say no to that offer, even though I didn't want to even see water after Katie practically bathed me in it. "Sure Carlos that would be fine". His face became red and a big smile was now on his face, he ran off to the kitchen.

"So, Camille I saw that Stephanie isn't here with you guys, where is she?" Camille just got up and her worry was gone from her face in an instant. "Oh, she decided to go to some competition for Directors, she just left us a note saying to tell Carlos, which reminds me can you please tell him I feel like he's just getting more and more mad whenever I hang out with you." "Ha-ha, nah that's just Carlos he's just being overprotective, even though I told him I hated being babied". "He really does care for you Logan", at that Camille just took out her phone and checked the time."Hay Logan I actually got to go Jo and I need to practice for some parts we want to audition for." I didn't want to question Camille any longer." Ok, hope you get the part", "Hope, so two…well I will see you later then." With that Camille went straight to Jo.

"Really…now? But we just got here and now we got to go?", "Yes Jo, and come one!" "WELL HANG SOME TIME K." Jo yelled from a distance from the door to Kendall I presume. "Where was Camille heading off too in such a hurry Logan?" "Oh, something about them trying out an audition". With that Kendall just walked away.

I was still freezing but not as bad as I was when I first woke up. Carlos came skipping along with a glass filled with water. I was surprised that the water didn't spill on the way over here. "Here you go buddy, one glass of fresh water". "Thanks Carlos", I actually did have a reason for my show earlier but I was kind of afraid to tell Carlos or anyone at the time, but now that it is just the two of us alone in the living room I decided to tell Carlos, he is one of my best friends after all.

After indulging the whole glass of water I placed the cup down next to me. Carlos was in awe seeing me drink all the water down so fast. "Wow, you were thirsty huh Logie" " Ha-ha ya I guess I was, thanks a bunch Carlos". With that Carlos's face ended up blushing, something about him was different, but I didn't want to point it out. With that the silence in the room was getting awkward "Hay Carlos… I uh…remembered when I had my uh…episode earlier?" With the mention of what happened Carlos just looked at the floor in a sad way. "Ya, what happened to you Logie?"

"I uh…" man this was harder than I thought I couldn't possibly keep this from Carlos especially to the guys as well. " Carlos, I have Coulrophobia", Carlos's face went from sad to confuse that instant, "What's that", "It means that I am afraid of clowns". With that Carlos went to worried; his face was going through so many emotions lately. "I guess that is why I fainted at the picture with the clown". I was in shock as to why Carlos wasn't laughing to my phobia he just smiled at the thought. "Don't worry Logie nothing will happen to you when I am around I'll make sure of that." That answer told me we were still on with the circus trip. "Um…Carlos, I actually don't feel like going to the circus…I had a near scary experience when I was seven."

With that I got up and Carlos jumped up to the couch. He was lying on his belly and his arms on his chin. He looked like a school girl fascinated on a conversation. "Don't worry, I have time".

"Well…um…ok".

A/N: Sorry I didn't want to end it like this but I didn't know how to end this chapter. Don't worry I will explain Logan's deal next chapter.
