(A/N): Yay! I have been waiting to write this chapter and the next one from the beginning! And now it's finally here! Thank you to xSuperChickx, oOo KitKat oOo and Milkamoo97 for your reviews! I split up an episode again, but this time, I think it's better this way. Once again, I do not own Big Time Rush. I also did not write the episode Big Time Break which this chapter and the next one are based off of. There is also a small mention of Big Time Bad Boy in this too.
Don't forget to keep voting for your choice for the new original character! Info on it is in Chapter 7 and in the poll on my profile! I have the choices at the bottom, in case you forgot.
Chapter 8: Your Laugh is Contagious
By the time Carlos, Logan, James and Kendall were all feeling better, they were sick of spending time with each other. Agreeing to split up, Kendall went to the pool, James was working on an acting career, Logan went to see a special math lecture at a local school and Carlos was spending the day with his visiting dad, looking for his helmet.
"Well, here it is," Logan was standing in front of the entrance of the Eastwood School for Girls with a backpack on his back and a book in his hand. Apparently, not realizing the school was just for girls, he walked up the steps. Excited for the math lecture by a guest teacher, Phoebe Nachee, Logan walked up to a cardboard cutout of her. "Yes!" And then pointed at the cutout, "Love you." Before he strolled into the building.
Logan was stopped by the school's security guard. She grabbed his backpack and practically pushed him out the door. "This is an all girls' school. No boys allowed."
"But," Logan tried to explain, "I have a ticket." He held it up to prove his point.
"Oh, well in that case," The security guard began, "Still not a girl."
"Okay," Logan argued, "I don't think Phoebe would like you talking to one of her fans like that."
"Oh, well," She responded, "Let's find out." At this, she grabbed the cardboard cutout of Phoebe and held it in front of her, imitating her as she spoke, "Yes I would." She began smacking Logan with the cutout as she kept telling him to get out.
"Alright!" Logan gave in, "I'm leaving!" The security guard glared at him for a second, hit him with the cutout again and then walked off. "Man. I really wanted to see that lecture."
"Logan?" someone called from behind him. He turned to see Katrina standing there, an eyebrow raised. She had her worn-out backpack with her and was wearing her usual uniform of shorts and t-shirt advertising for Penny's Pet Care. Her shirt was red today. "What are you doing here?"
"Oh," Logan looked surprised to see her, "Well, umm-"
"Wait," Katrina stopped him, "Where are Carlos, Kendall and James? You guys are always together. Are you planning something again?" She began looking around as though she expected them to come flying in out of nowhere.
"No," Logan assured her, "We're just taking a break from each other." When Katrina still looked confused, he continued, "Do you ever spend so much time with someone that you feel like you need a vacation from them?"
"You mean like when I got sick of you guys after a night at the mansion?"
"Hurtful!"
"Sorry, but it's true," Katrina told him, "I can't seem to get away from you guys."
"So," Logan decided to change the subject, "What are you doing here?"
"I go to school here," Katrina explained, "I just got out of my history class. I'm going to find a place to relax for a bit before going to my dance class and then I have to go to that math lecture by Phoebe Nachee for extra credit in my normal math class."
"Lucky."
"You WANT to go to a math lecture?"
"Yeah."
Katrina stayed silent for a second, but then said, "Well. I guess some people have to be interested in math, otherwise we wouldn't have it."
"Exactly." There was an awkward silence between the two before Logan spoke again, "So, since you're not busy, did you want to hang out before your dance class?"
"Are you going to ask me about my past, where I live or anything about my parents?"
"No."
"Then sure." Logan held his arm out for Katrina. She hesitated, looking at it for a second, but then took it, giving Logan a small smile. He smiled back before he led her towards the Palm Woods.
"No way!" Katrina and Logan were laughing together as they walked into the Palm Woods lobby. "Kendall WENT in his DESK?"
"Yeah," Logan told her, "So, technically, Kendall is the bad boy."
"You guys are crazy," Katrina was the happiest that Logan had ever seen her. "And Kendall as a bad boy? I don't see it. He's just very… bold. Stands up for what he wants."
"You should laugh more often," Logan observed, "Your laugh is contagious."
A little pink went to Katrina's face as she put her hand to her mouth to stop her laughing, mumbling from behind it, "Thanks."
"You're welcome," Logan smiled at the embarrassed girl, "I've been thinking. Why are you taking a dance class?" The elevator in front of them opened and they went in, doors closing behind them. Logan pressed the button for the second floor.
"Ugh! Don't remind me of that class," Katrina brought her hand down, sighing in aggravation, "I'm taking it because we need a gym credit and the dance class is the only one where I won't have to change in a locker room. Today, we're going to be learning Salsa dancing, which means I'll have to pair up with someone. That's the only time I hate being in an all girls' school."
"Too bad I couldn't get in, huh?" Logan suggested as the elevator doors opened.
Katrina spoke really softly as they walked down to 2J, "I wouldn't mind dancing with you." A small smile appeared on her face. Logan had to strain to hear her words, but when he did, his smile seemed to light up the hallway. However, it disappeared when he realized that he would have to be a girl to take the class and dance with her.
They reached 2J and Logan touched the door only to have it fall into the apartment. Katrina jumped back, letting go of Logan's arm. They walked in barely noticing Mrs. Knight in the kitchen.
"Man I wish I was a girl!" Logan let out into the apartment. Katrina and Mrs. Knight stared at Logan with wide-eyes, Mrs. Knight dropping the plates she was holding.
"You know," Katrina told him, "I can give you Brandon's phone number."
"Oh no no no," Logan explained to the two. He held up his math book, "Cause I want to go to Phoebe Nachee's math lecture at an all girls' school, but they won't let me in!"
"But you love Phoebe Nachee!" Mrs. Knight sympathized. Katrina was standing behind Logan, a smirk beginning to form on her face as an idea formed in her head.
"My heart and my brain ache for her," Logan sighed.
"Well," Mrs. Knight began, crossing her arms, "How badly do you want to go to that lecture?" She and Katrina locked eyes for a second and she knew that they were thinking the same thing.
"Really bad, Mrs. Knight," Logan answered, "Really really bad."
"Then, Katrina and I have an idea," Mrs. Knight told him. He turned to look at Katrina who was nodding her head.
"How can you come up with an idea together when you didn't even talk?"
"It's a girl thing," Katrina and Mrs. Knight spoke simultaneously.
"Katrina," Mrs. Knight looked directly at the teen girl, "Would you go find Camille and see if she has a wig we could borrow?"
Katrina looked confused, "Who's Camille?"
"She's probably going to be wearing a costume of some type and can usually be found in the lobby. She's very dramatic."
"Got it." Katrina dropped her backpack down on the table before she ran out of the room, took the elevator down and ended up in the lobby. Looking around, she noticed Camille right away. The girl was dressed up as a witch, holding a script in her hands.
As soon as she walked up to her, Camille looked at the girl and smiled, "Oh, hi Katrina."
Katrina froze, "How do you know who I am?"
"The guys have told me about you," Camille answered, "I'm Camille. Are you looking for one of the guys?"
"Actually, I was wondering if I could borrow a wig," Katrina felt weird asking for something from a stranger.
"Sure." Camille pulled out a brown hairpiece from underneath her cape and held it up to Katrina who looked confused. She took the wig.
"Thanks," Katrina turned around to find James walking to the two girls wearing a sorcerer's outfit. She looked him up and down before saying, "I don't want to know." With that, she ran back to the elevator, went up to the second floor and returned to 2J to find Mrs. Knight was almost finished with Logan's makeover.
Katrina placed the wig on Logan's head and fixed it so it looked good. She and Mrs. Knight stepped back to observe their handiwork.
"Yep," Mrs. Knight spoke, "We're the same size."
"Not bad," Katrina piped in, bumping fists with Mrs. Knight.
"I am not doing this," Logan told them.
"Do you want to go to the lecture or not?" Mrs. Knight asked the boy.
Logan hesitated, but answered, "Fine. Then Katrina's taking me to her dance class too."
"We'll need to make sure that you can fool them then," Katrina didn't seem to mind the thought of bringing him.
"Let's test it out in the lobby," Mrs. Knight suggested.
Logan, Katrina and Mrs. Knight stepped out of the elevator and looked over the lobby.
"Thank God none of the others are in here," Katrina noted. Logan smiled nervously as he nodded.
"Okay," Mrs. Knight began, "Time for the lobby test. If you can make it through those front doors, you can make it into that girls' school."
A boy walked past with his friend, saying "How's it going?" to both Logan and Katrina.
"Hey," Logan spoke in his normal voice, "Chillin'. You know, doing my thing. Bleep blop bloop." The boy looked shocked, quickly walking away. Katrina rolled her eyes.
"Okay," Mrs. Knight commented, "You failed the first test. Try speaking a little higher."
"Oh right," Logan cleared his throat and then spoke in a higher pitch, "Got it."
"Good!" Mrs. Knight slapped the math book into Logan's chest and he grabbed it. "Now go." She pushed Logan further into the lobby. Crossing her arms, she turned to Katrina, "You're going to stick by him, right?"
"Yeah, I probably should," Katrina agreed. Mrs. Knight nodded as Katrina followed Logan out of the lobby.
