Chapter 13

"Kendall! Wake up!" Kendall forced his eyes open and found Carlos jumping all over his bed. Kendall groaned and pushed Carlos off to the ground.

"Why can't I wake up like a normal human being?" He groaned. Carlos just shrugged, and kept on shaking his older friend's shoulders.

"We have to go see Logan today! We have to!" Carlos begged him, his eyes wide. Kendall rolled his eyes.

"Or what?" Kendall teased, getting up and stretching.

"Or I'll die!" Carlos cried, looking at Kendall with wide eyes.

"Dude. You know we're going every day now, right? I mean, why would we ever leave Logan alone for a whole day?" Kendall pointed out. Carlos realized that that was a good point, and smiled in relief.

"Okay, me and James are waiting for you outside the apartment!" He grinned at him, and dashed out of the room. Kendall couldn't help thinking that it had gotten quite lonely in his room without Logan there with him. Logan was an early riser, and always woke Kendall up sometime before 9. Kendall glanced at the clock in his room. 9:45, it read.

"Forty five minutes too late, Logan." Kendall whispered to Logan, smirking sadly. He missed Logan. He needed a roommate. But it definitely couldn't be James, because he and Kendall were still very angry at each other.

When Kendall got dressed, took a shower, and ate breakfast, it was already 11. He rushed out of the apartment, leaving a quick note for Katie and his mom, and met James and Carlos out by the pool. When James saw Kendall arrive, he narrowed his eyes and glared. Kendall glared back.

"Let's go, Kendall!" Carlos cried happily, grabbing his hand and running towards their car. James stared back jealously. Did Carlos like Kendall better than him? All Kendall was was just a retarded jerk face. James knew Logan kind of caused all this trouble for himself. Why couldn't he just trust his best friends? They were best friends since kindergarten, for crying out loud! But stupid, Kendall, he had to just hop up and defend Logan, and act as though nothing was wrong.

James sighed angrily as he followed his two band mates. He wondered how Carlos could be so happy during all this. Carlos just couldn't break, no matter what happened. He was too innocent, and too oblivious to notice that Kendall and James were having the biggest fight yet. James sometimes wished Carlos would just notice that something was wrong, and pick a side already.

On the car ride there, Carlos kept on jabbering and talking about all these crazy and random things. James pretended to pay attention, but he just couldn't, when all he could think about was Kendall. Kendall Knight made him so furious.

"Oh my gosh, Carlos, can you shut up for a second?" Kendall snapped, annoyed at how much words could come out of the Latino's mouth in a minute. Carlos bit his lip.

"Sorry." He said quietly, turning to look out the window. He noticed that Kendall and James weren't talking to each other, but he had no idea why. Did James do something wrong? Or did Kendall do something wrong? Or was it him?

Carlos was confused and he didn't know what to do. His two friends were, for some reason, mad at each other. And Carlos was dumb, so he knew it had something to do with Logan. Logan ruined everything. But Carlos knew it wasn't Logan's fault. He was just at the wrong place at the wrong time when the bat bit him. Carlos truly believed that it was just bad luck.

When Kendall went to the bathroom at the hospital, Carlos decided he would ask James about it. It was the perfect time. The two were sitting in an empty waiting room.

"James?" Carlos whispered, poking James's shoulder. James raised his eyebrow at him, telling him to go on.

"Why are you mad at Kendall?" Carlos asked, getting right to the point. He was one to be hesitant. This wasn't an exception.

James looked surprised. "Well… Kendall's just being a jerk right now, Carlos." He said.

"How?"

James sighed. "Well, I told Kendall that Logan should've told us that he wasn't feeling well, or we might not have been in all this trouble. But then, Kendall said that we wouldn't have been able to do anything about it, and maybe Logan didn't want to worry us. But then I said that we could've helped Logan, and we were friends since we were really little and Logan should've trusted us. Kendall said it would've still have been the same, but I don't believe that." James explained quickly. It was hard for Carlos's brain to process, but he understood at the end.

"So… you think this is Logan's fault?" Carlos asked quietly.

"No, but he should've at least told us." James argued. Carlos nodded. He didn't know who was right. Kendall was right about the part that Logan may not have wanted to worry them. Logan was selfless, and cared for others before himself. But James was right, too. Logan should've trusted them. Maybe, just maybe, they'd be alright right now.

"I think both of you are right. Except both of you are wrong, too, cuz your both mad at each other. That's not the right way to solve your problems. You gotta talk to each other, because nothing's gonna be solved unless you talk together." Carlos told James, not even knowing where his powerful words came from.

James just stared, shocked. When had Carlos known the solution to this kind of thing? "Wow. You're good, buddy." He said. Carlos grinned.

"I know." He smirked. "But really, you're scaring me, James. I don't want you guys to fight anymore. Really." He said softly. James put his arm around Carlos, and that was when Kendall came back from his potty trip, and the nurse called Logan's name.

Without a word, the three got up and followed the woman into Logan's room. 227. The nurse opened the door. The three were surprised to see no doctor in sight. But most surprising of all, Logan was sitting up in bed, staring at the walls. Logan Mitchell was sitting up. He was alright.

The nurse saw their happiness, and quickly left the four alone.

"Logan?" Carlos whispered. Logan turned around and smiled when he saw his friends.

"I can't believe you're okay, man." Kendal added. Logan nodded.

"I'm not fine." He said. "Not at all."

Carlos's eyes widened. "Why?"

"I don't know, but the doctors said I'm still suffering from the rabies. I'm dangerous." He states. His voice sounded rough and raspy from all the screaming he'd done the days before. He was screaming and kicking and being… insane. Logan still couldn't believe how horribly he was acting. It had seemed as though he were surrounded by red and white and black. All he saw was burning fire, anger, madness…

"I'm. Dangerous." Logan repeated, sounding threatening. "My mind is messed up." He said.

"Logan. Please don't say that," Kendall started, putting his hand on Logan's shoulder. "We all think you're p-" Kendall yelped in pain when Logan turned around and bit his hand. Logan bit his hand. Kendall pulled his injured hand back in shock.

"Logan." He whispered fearfully. What had happened to their friend? Logan had turned from a nerdy, smart, careful, pessimistic guy into a insane, biting… animal like person. What was happening to Logan?

"Logan, let us help-" James started. Logan shut him up when he glared daggers at James. James took a step back. If looks could kill…

"Get. Out." Logan hissed, his words filled with evil and anger. None of them had ever seen Logan act this way before. He'd never hurt a fly.

"Dude, we just want to-" Logan's eyes turned darker, and he screamed. He screamed something none of them could understand. But it was all they needed to turn around and leave the room.

It was all they needed to know that there was something seriously wrong with Logan Mitchell.

A/N- Gosh, that was scary…
