Enjoy!

Kendall said goodbye to Amirah. "So I'll see you later?"

Amirah nodded. "Looks like I'm here to stay. Wanna hang at my apartment in a couple of hours? Practice ends at around 9. Maybe I can look for you when I come back from the studio," the new singer/rapper/dancer replied.

"Definitely," Kendall said as they parted ways. He made his way to the pool, spotting James tanning. "Hey James," Kendall said once he took a seat next to James on the neighboring lawn chair.

They enjoyed watching the actions of everyone that surrounded them. Tyler's mom ran frantically as she looked for her son who locked himself in the janitor's closet. The Jennifers lounged in chairs sipping smoothies while giving a death glare to any guy who came too close. Mr. Bitters ordering Buddha Bob around. And Guitar Dude played his guitar, which everyone loved, of course.

Three very important people were missing from this equation. Logan, who was at "school". Carlos, who was spending his time with Stephanie before she went to the airport. And Camille, who was at an audition.

Kendall wondered about Carlos. He knew what Carlos felt like. The girl he liked moved away from him for her career. Kendall was very familiar with that situation. He knew Carlos would be feeling down once that plane took off.

Speak of the devil. Kendall's phone began ringing. "Hey Carlos," Kendall said as he answered his phone.

"Hey Kendall. I just dropped off Stephanie at the air port." Carlos sighed. Kendall knew how Carlos felt. The girl he really liked had moved away from him because of her career. Carlos interrupted Kendall's thoughts. "How did you do it, man?"

Kendall felt really sorry for Carlos. "Are you sure you don't want me to pick up Logan? Why don't you come back home and take a break?"

"Naw, I'm good. Besides, I'm still getting my driving practice in," Carlos said with a smile, though he knew Kendall couldn't see him anyway. "Logan's class is ending soon. I don't want him freaking out on us."

"Okay, Carlos. See you later," Kendall replied, knowing that when Carlos was determined to do something, there's no stopping him.

Though, it wasn't all the time that Mr. Bitters let the kids stay at the pool past 8:00PM, so Kendall took that to his advantage as he relaxed, inhaling the chlorine filled air.

Kendall and James chatted around the pool as they heard a very familiar voice. "UNBELIEVABLE!" Camille yelled as she got close to James and slapped him.

"You must gotten the part for "Prom of Death" obviously," James said as he held his face.

Camille smiled and nodded. "They said I have the attitude and personality they were looking for."

Crazy? Kendall thought. He sighed when his phone began ringing, but shrugged when he found out that it was Carlos calling. "What's up Carlos?"

"Have you heard from Logan? He's not outside and I've called him three times, Kendall!"

Kendall was about to respond when he heard Carlos grunt in pain and Logan screaming Carlos name as the call disconnected. "C-Carlos? Are you alright?"

James and Camille heard the worry in his voice. They leaned closer to Kendall in order to get an idea of what was going on.

Kendall tried calling Logan. "Something's wrong," he said to James and Camille as he waited for Logan to answer. Instead, the call went straight to voice mail.

"Kendall," James started to say, but Kendall already read his mind.

"We need to see what's up. James, do you still have the keys to Mom's car?" James pulled out the keys from his pocket and jingled them. Kendall turned to Camille. "I need you to stay here. Let us know if Logan and Carlos come back." Camille nodded and went to the lobby. James and Kendall dashed to the car and drove off.

Carlos didn't know where to go. His whole body hurt, he was bleeding, and he was getting cold. The worst thing was, he was scared. Scared that Logan could be dying right now and there's nothing that could be done.

They say that people with a strong will to live, are able to survive severe attacks and injuries. Carlos only hoped that Logan had that will. That hopefully, Logan was able to still think about his best friends, even though he was unconscious. Carlos knew that Mr. Mitchell was a douche, and everyone was happy when Joanna divorced him, but Logan always lived with the nightmares of his father. It was always one step forward and two steps back with him.

He could feel his legs weaken every step he took. Carlos didn't have to go any further as he saw a convenient store. Carlos mustered up every last bit of strength possible to run to the store. When he walked inside, he saw a middle aged Hispanic man behind the counter, whose eyes widened in shock after seeing Carlos walk in.

"A-ayudame, por favor," Carlos said as tears began falling from his eyes.

"Dios mio!" the man exclaimed as he ran over to Carlos, who looked like he would collapse at any moment.

"M-my friend...needs help." Carlos could feel that the adrenaline in his body was quickly fading away. He felt the pain of the knife wound and his eyelids getting heavier. The man, whose name tag identified him as Ricardo, caught Carlos as he fell. "The c-community college," Carlos said as his eyes rolled to the back of his head.

Ricardo pulled out his cell phone and dialed 911. "Hello. Please. There's a kid that came into my store with a stab wound. It doesn't look good...thanks. Oh and one more thing! He says he has a friend at the community college. I think he's hurt too. Can you send someone down there? Just in case?...Thank you. And please hurry."

Ricardo put his phone back in his pocket as he searched the store for towels. Once he found them, he quickly made his way back to Carlos and pressed the towels to Carlos' bleeding wound. Carlos didn't even react. "It's gonna be okay, kid. Just...hang in there."

Kendall and James figured that the first place they should head to, was the community college. It looked normal. The school was closed, so no one was around and it was quiet...too quiet.

They pulled up into the school parking lot. The first thing they spotted was the BTR mobile.

"Kendall! Do you see that?" James yelled, as if Kendall was blind AND deaf. Kendall drove closer to the vehicle.

That's when he saw something at the height of the school steps. "James! Look over there." Kendall pointed to the stairs.

They hopped out of the car and ran up the school steps. "Logan," Kendall breathed out. Him and James got on their knees. Kendall was the first to take action. "Logan. Logan c'mon buddy wake up," he said as he shook Logan gently by the shoulders. They noticed the blood surrounded Logan's head. The fact that Logan was paler than normal.

James and Kendall heard Logan's shallow breathing. Which was soon drowned out by sirens. That's when they both realized: where's Carlos?

"M-maybe Carlos escaped and got help," James said, trying to be optimistic.

EMTs approached the boys, ready to work. Kendall and James watched in shock as the EMTs worked on Logan. "He's barely breathing!" one EMT yelled as they put Logan on a gurney.

"This your friend?" one EMT asked the boys.

They nodded dumbly. "There's another one though and we can't find him," Kendall said.

The EMT nodded. "A call from a convenience store was reported. That's how we found him. Two ambulances were sent. One here and one to the convenience store. That could be your other friend. If you head down there now, you may be able to still catch him before the ambulance takes him away too."

"James, I'll stay with Logan. You go see if Carlos is still there," Kendall commanded. James nodded and took off running.

Thankfully, the store was extremely close. James entered into the store as an ambulance pulled into the parking lot.

The first sight James was greeted with when he entered the store was an unconscious Carlos and a man doing his best to keep him alive. He rushed over to Carlos side.

"He passed out a few minutes ago. He must really care for his friend because he came in here asking me to call an ambulance for his friend, not himself."

James gave a humorless laugh. "Yeah, that's Carlos for ya."

The EMTs came in, and quickly laid Carlos on a gurney and attached an IV into his arm. James thanked the store clerk.

"Let me know when he gets better, would you?"

James nodded and entered the ambulance with Carlos. He pulled out his phone and called Kendall. This was going to be a long night.
