Hey guys! Well, I told you I was going on hiatus… but I couldn't stay away! So I wrote this chapter :P It's not as long as the other ones, but I guess it'll suffice for now.

Enjoy!


"So when are we gonna get down to business?" Ted asks, licking her ice cream cone. Mama Knight has treated them to dessert and they were currently seated inside of the old fashioned ice cream parlor. They're in one of those U shaped booths and everyone is squished together.

"Probably tomorrow," Kendall answers. "I mean, it's only our first day back in LA."

Logan nods in agreement. "We can get some rest back at the motel and then tomorrow we can go to Rocque Records."

"What's Rocque Records like anyways?" Georgia asks, sticking her spoon into her cup of ice cream before putting it in her mouth.

"It's pretty nice inside," Carlos says. "Lots of guitars and such."

"And boy band posters," James adds.

"What about the Palmwoods?" Taylor asks.

"I love the Palmwoods," Katie tells her.

"You should see the pool," Logan says. Mama Knight chuckles.

"When the boys heard about the pool, the immediately took off on me. Kelly and I were left alone with all the bags," she says. Kendall looks sheepish.

"Sorry, mom."

"It's okay, sweetheart."

"Oh, and there's the Jennifer's!" Carlos adds enthusiastically.

"Carlos, the girls aren't interested in hearing about the Jennifer's," Logan says.

"Who are the Jennifer's?" Georgia asks.

"HA!" Carlos laughs loudly right in Logan's face before turning back to Georgia. "The Jennifer's are a group of three girls-"

"-of the same name," James adds.

"-who sing, dance, and act," Carlos finishes.

"And they're kinda bitchy," Kendall says and Logan nods in agreement.

"They totally dissed us when we first got there," James says.

"And they dumped pink smoothies on us," Logan adds.

"That's so mean!" Taylor exclaims.

"Yeah…" the four boys chorus.

"Is that all?" Georgia asks.

"Well, the rest you'll have to see for yourself," Kendall says with a smirk and Taylor smiles.

"I can't wait until you guys are famous!" she exclaims, bouncing up and down in her seat.

"Fame, fortune, tight pants… what else could you ask for?" James sighs happily.

"Looser pants maybe?" Logan jokes.

"Amen to that!" Carlos says, holding his ice cream cone towards the smart boy. Logan chuckles, but knocks his cone against Carlos'.

"Cheers!" they chorus.

"So… what next?" James asks.

"I guess we go back to the motel and get some rest?" Katie suggests and everyone shrugs.

"To the dwelling of Satan!" Kendall announces loudly, getting the attention of the cashier (who looks thoroughly creeped out).

"To the dwelling of Satan!" everyone else choruses as they march outside, dumping their now-empty cones on the way.


"But I want that comforter!"

"No way, it's fucking mine!"

"I called dibs and according to the Rule of Dibs, that blanket is mine."

"Guys!" Katie shouts, getting the two bickering boys' attention.

"What?"

"Just share it," she says with a shrug.

"Share it?"

"Yeah. I mean, you and Logan are already sharing the floor. Why not a blanket that is obviously big enough to cover you both?"

Kendall and Logan share a look and Kendall shrugs. "I… guess that's alright," Logan mumbles and Kendall nods.

"Okay. Thanks, Katie-kat," the blond says with a smile.

"Sure. Now let me sleep!"

Logan chuckles at the girl before he begins spreading the comforter out over their makeshift bed made out of extra pillows and blankets that they had gotten from housekeeping. He lays down, testing the bed out.

"How's it feel?" Kendall asks, making sure to keep his voice down so he doesn't wake anyone up. Logan gives him a thumbs up and gestures for Kendall to join him. The blond slides under the covers beside Logan and smiles.

"Not bad, right?" Logan whispers and Kendall nods.

"It's actually pretty comfy," Kendall replies, snuggling under the blanket.

"Well… g'night, Ken."

"Night, Logie."


"Wakey wakey, let's get nakey!" someone shouts and Logan groans because Dammit, can't you just let me sleep?!

"Wait, lemme get a picture of this," someone else whispers and Logan elects to ignore it because, again, he wants to fucking sleep so leave him the fuck alone. He hears Kendall let out a sleepy groan too and then he realizes that his arms are wrapped around Kendall and the blonds face is pressed against his neck and they look like they're hugging each other. Oh well, they've slept like this before. No big deal.

"Aww, they're so adorable!" a female voice coos and Logan snaps, grabbing the comforter and covering his (and Kendall's) head with it. There. Now the light can't bother him and hopefully this comforter is also soundproof because he really wants to sleep and apparently Kendall does too because the boy pulls himself closer to his brunet friend and they're practically engulfing one another in sleepy hugs. But Kendall is warm like a newborn baby and smells like when you go for a hike in the forest and everything is covered in snow and Logan is almost asleep again when someone jumps on top of him and Kendall.

"Guys, wake up!" the person yells and Kendall shoves whoever it is off of him and they land with a thud. Both him and Logan finally sit up, the blanket falling onto their laps.

"Ugh, why do you want us up at-" Logan glances at the clock "-6 AM?" he asks, looking over to see that the person who had jumped on them was Carlos.

"Because," Mama Knight says, coming out of the bathroom with some sort of makeup tool in her hand, "we need to be at Rocque Records early to meet Gustavo at the gates."

"Why do we need to meet him at the gates?" Kendall asks, rubbing his eyes tiredly.

"Because there's no guarantee he'll let us in past the gates if we don't beat him there. Now stop asking questions and go get ready to leave," Mama Knight orders. Both of the drowsy boys heave themselves up from the ground, stretching and yawning simultaneously.

Time to really put this plan into action!

…after they get some coffee.


"Look, there he is!" Kendall whispers loudly. Logan quickly shushes him.

"Well, let's go out there!" Georgia says, nodding towards the heavyset man heading towards the gates that closed off entry to Rocque Records.

"Not without these," the four boys chorus, somehow conjuring up six tree hats for each of the teens to wear. Carlos slaps one on Taylor's head while James does the same for Georgia.

"Tree hats? Really guys?" Taylor asks, her eyebrows almost hitting her hairline.

"Hey, don't diss the tree hats," Carlos says. James nods seriously.

"The tree hats fucking rock," the pretty boy says and Kendall peers over at Gustavo, who is still talking to the guard at the gate.

"Well, why do we need tree hats if we're just going to go up to the guy and chat with him?" Georgia asks.

"Because of this!" Kendall says excitedly, holding up a remote control that seems to come out of nowhere and has the girls questioning what else these boys have up their asses. Or sleves. Wherever these things are coming from.

Kendall presses the only button on the remote and suddenly there are red lights flashing and alarms blaring everywhere.

"RUN!" the four boys screech before taking off and the girls are left scrambling to catch up with their idiot friends. Taylor almost falls multiple times and Kendall notices this before stopping and practically throwing the blonde girl on his back before he's running again. They manage to get past the gates and are almost at the door of the building before they're stopped by another security guard. A big, beefy, scary security guard. The six teens let out simultaneous yelps of terror before the guard is holding up a hand as if to say 'Stop'.

"What's going on here?" the large man asks and Kendall takes it upon himself to answer him. He sets Taylor down on her feet before speaking.

"We're here to meet with Gustavo Rocque," he says, raising an eyebrow as if to say 'I dare you to challenge me'. It doesn't really work as well as he hopes.

"Yeah, well, all of Gustavo's appointment and affairs go through me. If he had an appointment with you, I'd know about it."

"Uhh, well, we know him. You can ask him yourself," Kendall says, nodding over to the gates, where everything is still in a disarray and there are multiple other large men in yellow jackets running around trying to fix the problem and James almost laughs because they look like a bunch of bees whose hive has been shaken but then James' smile falls because these guys look just as angry as his imaginary bees would be. Not good.

"I would," large man says, "but he looks a bit occupied right now."

"Uhh…"

"What's your name, beefy dude?" Carlos asks suddenly.

"Freight Train," he answers and suddenly they all hear the blaring horn of that very locomotive. Confused, they look around for the source of the noise before giving up.

"Well, Freight Train," Carlos begins, "I'm Carlos and these are my best friends Kendall, James, Logan, Georgia, and Taylor. Me and the boys-"

"The boys and I," Logan corrects.

"-were in a band that Gustavo was going to produce. Griffin turned us down though because apparently boybands are dead and have been since the 90's. A few days ago, we got a call from Gustavo saying that he still wants to produce us but we have to come up with a plan to get famous. The reason you wouldn't know about us meeting up with him is because he doesn't want Griffin to find out," Carlos explains.

"That's a very likely story boys-"

"It is?" James asks, confused.

"-but I can't let you in," Freight Train says apologetically.

"Wait," Kendall says, "if we can get Gustavo to tell you the same thing we just told you, will you let us in?" he asks, doing that crazy thing with his eyebrows he does whenever he feels he's about to prove someone wrong.

Freight Train shrugs. "I guess."

"YO, GUSTAVO!" Kendall yells, waving his arms back and forth to get the angry man's attention. Gustavo sees them and pinches the bridge of his nose before making his way over.

"What are you DOGSdoing here?" he asks before glancing at the girls. "And who are THEY?" Both girls look frightened and Taylor quickly hides behind Georgia.

"We have an appointment with you, remember?" James says, pointedly glancing over at Freight Train. Gustavo seemed to catch on and nodded.

"Go ahead and let them- are those tree hats?"

"Yup," Kendall says, popping the 'P'. Gustavo shakes his head and motions for Freight Train to unlock the door.

"Escort them to my office while I sort out WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO THE GATES."

"Yes, sir."

Freight Train quickly obeys Gustavo's orders, unlocking the door to Rocque Records and leading the group of teens up to Gustavo's office. As they're walking, Taylor suddenly thinks of something.

"How'd you guys rig the alarms to go off?" she whispers to James. The pretty boy nods to Logan and Taylor thinks this is enough answer for her. She really doesn't wanna know exactly how. Need to know only and all that shit. Beefy man leads them though a hallway and up into a… gallery? All Taylor knows is that there are posters of old boybands and she really wants to burst out laughing now.

"Right through that door," Freight Train tells them and Kendall opens the door, motioning for everyone to enter before him. When they walk in the room, they notice the large bookshelf on the back wall they're facing and a desk in front of it. That's it.

Oh, and the nice lady sitting at the desk, reading papers.

"Hey, Kelly!" Kendall chirps. Nice Lady looks up. She looks surprised for a second before she's grinning.

"Guys, you made it! I'm so glad you're here!"

"Yeah… We're glad to be here!"

"So, do you have a plan to make you guys famous?" she asks hopefully and Kendall shakes his head solemnly. "But you always have a plan!"

"Well, I do have an idea…"
