Madelyn quietly drank her water. Normally the others would've noticed that something was wrong, but they were extremely happy about their performance. She looked around her. Happy people everywhere. She sighed and moved the strand of brunette hair out of her face. Madelyn spotted James making his ways towards her. She held her breath, not ready to face him. Her eyes literally begging him to turn around and leave her alone.
The girl jump at the sound of Hawk's voice scared her, not knowing he was in front of them. She looked back up and James was walking away. "Great job girls! That was amazing! Okay, the next step for today is to get comfortable in you pajamas for the camp fire jam at the Palm Woods," Hawk grinned evilly.
"Okay," the four girls said in union.
Dak walked up to them, "Mind if I steal Maddie away?"
"Yes, we do mind," Amber said.
"Yeah. She's ours. We don't want you to steal her from us," Elizabeth slightly pouted.
"Uhm. Guys, he meant only for a minute, not forever," Michelle smirked.
"Oh," the other two mumbled, both blushing.
"I knew that..." Amber grumbled.
"You can take her. We will be in the limo, Maddie," Michelle winked at the brunette girl. Madelyn rolled her eyes, but smile a little. The other three members of Toxic Meltdown headed to the exit. Elizabeth giggled when Amber turned around to give Madelyn a thumbs up.
"So, what do you want?"
"I was wondering if you wanted to go get some dinner with me?" his voice was filled with hope.
Madelyn frowned, "I can't. We have to go back to the Palm Woods."
"Better luck next time?"
"Totally," she smiled at him.
Dak's face lit up, "Awesome! Should we swap numbers?" Madelyn nodded and handed him her phone. He gave her his. They gave each other their's back and went their separate ways.
Limo
The other three girl laughed as the opened the limo doors. All froze when they saw Kendall sitting on their side of the limo.
"What the hell?" Amber hissed.
"He's being stubborn and wants to sit over there," Logan explained. "Seeing as he wont suck it up and be friends with James."
"Fine. Then I'm sitting on that side because I don't want to be around him," Amber glared at the blonde.
"Am-" Kendall started, but quickly gave up. Amber sat down by Logan. Katie climbed off of Kendall's lap over to her so the black hair teen wouldn't be alone. Michelle and Elizabeth left a gap between them and Kendall. They sat in silence until Madelyn got to the limo.
The brunette raised an eyebrow, "Wh-?"
"Kendall doesn't want to be by me," James looked up for the first time, his eyes still looking hurt and distant.
Madelyn sighed and sat by Kendall. She bit the inside of her cheek. She needed to have a calm talk with her brother, but that seemed impossible lately. He acted like his anger issues have gotten worse.
"Soo," Elizabeth started with a teasing voice, "what did Dak want?" She suggestively waggled her eyebrows.
Madelyn blushed and smiled, "He wanted to… Uhh," she stopped because she could feel Kendall's hard stare burning into her sides.
"Continue," he said in a harsh voice.
"He, uh, he just wanted," Madelyn glanced over at James, who had went back to staring at the window. She looked at her friends. They each gave her encouraging looks. "He wanted to know if I could go to dinner with him. I had to turn him down though."
"Had to or wanted to?" Kendall asked, hoping she didn't want to date Dak.
"Had to. Hawk told us we had something else to do."
Kendall groaned and rested his head on the window by him. "Figures."
"Wait, did you just imply that I'm a hoe?" Madelyn said jokingly.
"What? No! I wouldn't call you that. You're my sister!"
"Okay then…"
Again, the ride back to the Palm Woods was quiet. No one dared to break the silence. As soon as it pulled in front of the hotel, Katie made a beeline to the pool. She went to go find Kyle and Abigail who should have made it back by now.
Michelle chuckled a little, "You forgot to threaten that boy, Maddie."
"Oh yeah! I'll do it later," Madelyn shrugged. She figured one of the boys already scare him to death.
"Let's get in our Pjs!" Elizabeth cheered, running right past them on her way to the apartment. The two girls chuckled and turned to find Amber talking to Kendall. Michelle's eyes grew with hatred for the boy for hurting her friend.
"Just give up, Kendall..." Madelyn mumbles to herself. She has to admit it hurt to see her brother hurting even though she knows what he did was f-ked up.
"I just wanted you to know that I didn't call things off with Jo because you were here. I'm wasn't going to use you like that."
"Right. Because just like any other guy, you see a girl who looks hot to you, and completely forget about the girl you're dating."
"That's not how it happened," Kendall ran a hand through his blonde hair.
"Really? Then you remembered you were dating me, but didn't care?"
"No!"
"Whatever. I'm done. Bye," Amber crossed her arms, walking past him. Michelle and Madelyn gave her sympathetic smiles and the three followed in Elizabeth's steps. The four members of Toxic Meltdown changed into their pajamas, discussed which songs they were thinking about singing, kicked back, and watched movies until 8 p.m. when it was time for the camp fire. They went down to the pool to find half of the Palm Woods gathered around a simple fire.
Madelyn felt a little chilly in her white Pokemon shorts and blue Pikachu tank. She brought her white and yellow sweeter for when it gets cold and her Pikachu plushie to cuddle with. She imagined Elizabeth was a little cold as well seeing as she wore her pink Mickey Mouse tank and shorts with a flat hat. She brought a Mickey Mouse sweeter too. Amber wore her black Suzumiya Haruhi shirt that said, "Just Do As The Girl Says" and black and white checkered pajama bottoms, orange head band like Haruhi, and her long sleeve button up. Michelle wore a red Adventure Time shirt, red and black checkered pajama bottoms, a Jake beanie, and her black cardigan.
"Who is singing first?" a dude with a guitar asked.
"You guys should go first," a girl with chocolate dark, curly hair, who sat next to Logan said.
"Nah. None of us are in the mood," Logan said in a weak voice.
"Guitar Dude! Talk 'em into it!" some random person said.
"No can do, bro. If they don't want to then they don't have to," the guy with the guitar said.
"We'll do it," Amber raised her hand slightly. She looked at the other girls to make sure it was okay with them.
"Okay!" Guitar Dude smiled.
"Just a second though," Michelle said as the girls formed a group huddle.
"So which song are we doing?"
"Well we decided between-" Amber began, but Madelyn cut her off.
"I think we should sing Everybody Hurts."
"Why?" Elizabeth questioned.
"Just trust me. I know what I'm doing," Madelyn gave them a reassuring smile.
"Okay, " the other three cooed.
"Any other instruments you will need?" Guitar Dude asked.
"Two acoustic guitars and a keyboard?" Michelle said as he handed her his and grabbed another one, which Amber excepted. Elizabeth stepped up to take the keyboard. They four sat down and slowly began their song. Madelyn looked at James as she sang the first few lyrics, but looked away soon after.
Madelyn: Don't know, Don't know if I can do this on my own
Why do you have to leave, me
It seems, I'm losing something deep inside of me

Michelle: So many questions so much on my mind
Amber: So many answers I can't find
Madelyn: I wish I could turn back the time
I wonder why
All: Everybody hurts some days (some days)
Everybody hurts some days (some days)
Everybody hurts some days (some days)

La di da di da It's okay
La la la la la It's okay
La di da di da It's okay
La la la la la It's okay
The song drifted to an end and the others cheered, except for Big Time Rush. James looked up at Madelyn hoping to talk with his eyes, but she was smiling and talking with Michelle. He glanced at his band mates. Logan seemed to be eyeing Michelle and Madelyn too, Kendall was off in his own world, and Carlos was talking to himself.
Madelyn sighed and slipped her sweeter on. She hoped the song would help the guys see that they did need to let their feelings effect their music
"You guys should sing!" Elizabeth blurted out, she too putting on her sweeter.
"Yeah," Amber said.
"I agree," Michelle commented.
"Or are you to afraid, knowing that we showed you up?" Madelyn smirked.
"I never turn down a challenge!" Carlos jumped up.
"Us either," the other boys mumbled.
"Great!" Amber handed the acoustic guitar to Kendall, and Michelle gave the other back to Guitar Dude. Elizabeth also handed him the keyboard to put up.
"I guess we'll sing Stuck?" Logan asked. The others nodded. James moved to his spot by Kendall, which is normally where Gustavo puts him when they sing that song. Carlos got on James other side and Logan by Carlos.
