I know this story is a bit of a mess but trust me, I have a plan for all this. And also I changed the name of Kendall and Lucy's baby to Andrea because it was annoying to have two Jos in the story.
So in this episode, first of all we find out once and for all who the father of Lucy's baby is. And nobody seems happy about it. James is mad at Kendall, Kendall is mad at Logan, and so in an attempt to lighten the mood, Carlos literally kidnaps the boys for a weekend away. Meanwhile Camille and Lucy are babysitting Cameron, Lily, and Andrea and everything seems to be going well before Cameron and Lily disappear and nobody has any clue where they are.
CHAPTER EIGHT
Fortunately Camille offered to give the boys a lift home from the airport. Unfortunately, it was an awkward silence the whole way home. Kendall wasn't sure what had hit him harder; the fact that Jo cheated on him and yet she went so over the top when she found out he did the same after she had already done it, or that it was with Kendall's best friend, or whether it was that Kendall could have a kid with someone else already. But what Kendall did know was that he was furious with Logan for not saying something sooner. Kendall didn't quite want to kill Logan just yet, so all Kendall did was just sit in silence throughout the whole journey, staring from Logan to Lily and back.
The journey seemed to take forever, but eventually they got back to find James, Carlos, Lucy, Cameron and Andrea waiting for them outside the apartment block. Nobody looked happy. Kendall took a deep breath. "Well?" he asked. "Are you going to keep staring at me or are you going to tell me the results?" James looked at Lucy. "You tell him." James told her. Lucy paused, smiling at Kendall now for some reason. "Kendall. I'm kind of glad Jo isn't here to see this because...the baby is yours." Lucy said, trying to sound upbeat. "But you don't have to help raise her. James agreed to help raise her if you don't want." Lucy reassured Kendall. James nodded in agreement. "But I don't do diapers. That's her job." He told them. Everyone was staring at Kendall, but he himself was just stood there staring at Andi in shock. He did that for a few minutes before finally saying. "I need a minute." And then walking off.
LATER ON...
James had been determined not to let this whole thing bother him. But his mind had other ideas. He couldn't sleep that night because he just kept staring at Andrea fast asleep in her crib next to him. He was doing that for a good few hours before something else distracted him. He heard a crash coming from elsewhere in the apartment. James looked next to him to see if Lucy was there. She was. So who was making all that noise? At the sound of a second crash, James crept out of bed to go check what was making that noise.
He got into the kitchen and walked slowly in, armed with a very heavy book he really didn't care about just in case. "Who's there?" whispered James, as if the person was going to answer him. Funnily enough, there was no answer. James didn't hear any more noises for a good few minutes after that, and just as James was preparing to go back to bed he felt a hand go over his face and that was the last thing he remembered.
LATER ON...
last thing Logan could remember was opening the door at about 3am to find nobody was there. He was about to go back to bed when he felt a hand go over his mouth and everything went black. Next thing he knew he was in the back of a windowless van, tied to a seat, with a gag in his mouth, with Kendall and James unconscious in the seats next to him in the same situation. Logan was going to yell for help, but his mouth was gagged. So he just sat there, terrified, waiting for the car to stop. Eventually it did, and for some reason the other two still hadn't woken up. When the back of the van finally opened, Logan was surprised to find he actually recognised the person who opened the door. He didn't know whether to be relieved or annoyed as he recognised Carlos smiling down at him. Logan tried to yell at Carlos but again he still had the gag in his mouth. "Oh let me help you with that." Carlos said, removing the gag from Logan's mouth. Logan paused for a moment, just so he could angrily glare at Carlos for a little while. "I have a lot of things to ask you...but the first thing is WHY DID YOU KIDNAP ME?!" Logan exclaimed. Carlos sighed. "I had to. Everything was so boring and stressful recently. I've barely even spoken to any of you since lily was born. I wanted to hang out once more. Just the four of us. Like old times. But I knew you'd never be a good friend and abandon your daughter to hang out with me. (and same goes for Kendall and James.) So I kidnapped you. It was really the only way." Carlos explained. Then something came into Logan's head that made him start to panic. "If we're all here, who's babysitting Lily and Andi?" Carlos paused for a moment, as if wondering that himself. "Umm...I think Lucy and Camille will be looking after them. But that's not important right now. This trip is about the four of us." Carlos told Logan. Before Logan could argue any more, the other two boys began to wake up.
LATER ON...
After explaining to both Kendall and James what he'd literally just explained to Logan, Carlos had succeeded in his plan to get the four of them together once more. But nobody looked happy about it. Kendall was still doing his 'far-off' expression thing he was doing earlier, James was panicking about not having any of his hair products with him, and Logan was worried about Lily. "Oh come on guys!" said Carlos, standing on the front of the car for dramatic effect. "We never hang out anymore, just the four of us, without the girls. And besides, there were worse places I could've taken you to than a nice hotel not too far away from where you live." For the first time ever, Carlos actually made a very good point. And there was no point arguing as Carlos had hidden the keys to the van somewhere whilst everyone else was still out cold and so there was no way for the guys to get back. So instead they decided to enjoy the holiday Carlos had paid for. (or at least they hoped he'd paid for it.)
From the moment the four boys set foot in that hotel, things went wrong. Sat at the checkout desk was an attractive Hispanic looking girl with bright blue hair who was on the phone. She wasn't the kind of girl you'd ever meet twice. She had bright blue contacts in and was dressed in a bright floral dress, yet somehow it seemed to suit her. She looked at the boys in the doorway and waved at the four of them before winking at one of them. She hung up the phone almost immediately and smiled sweetly at one member of the group, but nobody was sure who. "Can I help you?" she asked, smiling sweetly. Carlos stepped forward. "I booked a room. My name's Carlos Garcia." He told her. She looked at the crowd. "are you guys with him as well?" she asked. They nodded. "ok." She said. "I'll show you to your room." She said as she walked off, with all four boys following close behind her.
The whole way up the stairs, the cute blue haired girl stood uncomfortably close to James. And she had her hand where it really shouldn't be. James decided not to let it bother him. He had a girlfriend and so nothing could happen. And soon enough they got to the room. "Here's your room. I already gave one of you the key. And if you need anything else, there's a phone in your room that will call my desk." She told them. Then she looked directly at James and narrowed her eyes flirtily as she said "and I mean anything." she said as she walked out. As soon as the boys all got inside, and the girl was out of earshot, the talking began. "She's incredible!" said Carlos, diving backwards onto the bed and staring at the ceiling dreamily. "I've never met a girl like her with her beautiful hair and amazing fashion sense. And I'm sure I never will again." Carlos sat up and stared at the other three boys. "you gotta help me get together with her." He told them. James paused for a moment, as if debating whether or not to crush Carlos' new fantasy. Then James decided to say something anyway. "Umm Carlos, hate to break it to you but I think she may have a thing for me." James said solemnly. Carlos rolled his eyes. "You think everyone has a thing for you. When you met Nicole Scherzinger, you were convinced she had a crush on you." Carlos pointed out. "that's because she does. And if I weren't with Lucy, she would be mine. But that's not important. The blue haired girl really likes me." James insisted. But still nobody believed him.
LATER ON...
It was late at night and James couldn't sleep. He was sure that blue haired girl was into him but he couldn't prove it. But why was he so concerned anyway? He was dating Lucy, a girl he'd worked hard to get for years. And besides, maybe the other girl didn't even like him. Maybe it was all in his head. But how could he possibly know for sure? James was wondering all this when he heard a knock on the door. Being the only one awake at that time, James attempted to get up without waking up Carlos in the next bed. I say he attempted to because he managed to trip over the coffee table, knock over a suitcase and step on something sharp before falling into the door and opening it. For a moment James thought he was dreaming because he recognised the cute blue haired girl standing in the doorway with nothing on but a bath robe and a very short nightie that nearly didn't cover everything. "can I help you?" asked James, trying very hard to keep eye contact with her. She nodded. "I live in a hotel room just down the hall and I broke my heater. I need a big, strong man like you to fix it for me." She said, flirtily. Now James was sure he was dreaming. But he still went with her to see if he could fix it for her. Big mistake. Why this girl lived in a hotel she also worked in was beyond James. But he wasn't going to question it. He still wasn't 100% sure he wasn't dreaming as he followed her into her apartment. He looked around. He could see a lot of dirty laundry but no broken heater. He turned to her. "where's your heater?" he asked. She looked around. "I don't seem to have one. Maybe you can keep me warm instead?" she said, throwing her arms around his neck. "we can't do this!" exclaimed James, throwing her arms off of him. "and why not?" she asked indignantly. James paused for a moment. As if wondering that himself. "Well 1) I have a girlfriend back home. And 2) my friend has a crush on you." James explained. The girl smiled playfully. "Well neither of them have to know." She told James, running her fingers down his back.
