*Week 2*
Monday at school in 4th period in world history class the lesson is all about Greece. The projects are visual presentations. Logan decided to dress in character for his assignment. He's not so nervous cuz he's in a group*
Mr. Wang: Ok Logan your group is up first. Please go up to the front of the classroom and give your presentation. Just remember to stay and calm and relaxed
Thanks Mr. Wang "Logan says and walks to the front of the classroom with his group*
Today we're gonna-*He's interrupted by Justin's loud laughing*
What's so funny?
You're wearing a dress! "Justin says"
No l'm not it's called a toga. Greeks wore these. That was the fashion at the time. As I was saying our project is about Mt. Olympus
More like Mt. Dorkmus! "Justin says"
Will you just shut your big mouth and let us continue you jerk?! There's others here who want to actually learn about what we're presenting. You're ruining it for everyone so stay quiet!! "Logan says angrily which makes everyone gasps"
Justin he's right. You're interrupting the entire class. Detention room now! "Mr. Wang says"
You're gonna pay for this you little twerp! I'll get you for this!! "Justin says and angrily leaves the classroom"
Logan nervously sighs and completes the presentation and the group gets an A*
Later at recess Jenny and Logan are playing tether ball*
Oh great here come Justin "Jenny says rolling her eyes"
Hello losers. Ready for some pain? "Justin says"
What did I do to deserve your unwelcoming presence? "Jenny says"
Just by existing "Justin says" You're not attractive at all
Neither are you "Jenny says"
Shut up you hideous freak! "Justin says and throws the tether ball at her face knocking her to the ground"
Get away from us right now! "Logan says"
Shut up loser! "Justin says"
I would love to agree with you, but I hate being wrong "Logan says"
You're a little troll! "Justin says"
Do you remember when I solicited your opinion? Me neither "Logan says"
I'm so much smarter than you! "Justin says"
Brains aren't everything; in fact, in your case they're nothing "Logan says"
I'm excellent at sports. You're a weakling! "Justin says"
Talking to you makes me realize why toothpaste tubes come with instructions "Logan says"
A teacher finally arrives and takes Jenny to the nurse's office*
After school at the carpool lane*
You ok Jenny? "Logan says"
Yeah I'm feeling better. Thanks for defending me from Justin "Jenny says"
No problem. He's not so scary after a while he's just a really mean jerk face who needs to be hugged more often and shown kindness "Logan says"
That's true. I'm ready to continue on our acts for the talent show "Jenny says"
Awesome I am too "Logan says"
Um…Logan can we talk please? "James says"
No I need to focus on my talent for the show. I'm still upset at all three of you but you more than Carlos and Kendall "Logan says"
But why? I apologized for the spying in your backyard incident and the not knowing your favorite comic book hero thing. What else do you want from me? "James says"
Respect "Logan says"
I do give you respect "James says"
Not recently "Logan says" I don't have the time or patience to deal with you right now. My mom is here. Bye *Gets in the car with Jenny*
At Mitchell Residence*
In the living room*
I feel sad about the rut you and James are in "Jenny says"
He's not your problem. Unfortunately he's mine "Logan says"
You still care about him? "Jenny says"
Of course I do. I never stopped "Logan says" If he wouldn't of doubted my ability to even have small chance of the winning the talent show I wouldn't be so mad at him
They work for 3hrs then Jenny goes home*
*Tuesday*
In gym class*
Coach Zang: Today's activity is basketball. Teams of 5 will be on the court at the time to get a score of 5 in rounds of three. First team to get 15 points by the end of the third round doesn't have to do the 10 laps around the track outside. Pick your teams. You have five minutes
Logie come join our team please "Carlos says"
Don't call me that when Justin is around. If he hears you he'll just tease me about it. I've got no interest to be on a team with you guys. Isn't hockey enough? "Logan says"
Ouch "Carlos says"
Sometimes the truth hurts "Logan says" Why don't you pick Trevor or Noah they actually play basketball for this school? Pick both of them before Justin does. Hurry. He'll be looking for the best or whoever he thinks looks athletic enough to throw the ball through the hoop. This is the only advice I'm giving you today
Goes to the other side of the court*
*Team A-Logan, Jenny, Maya, Peter and Sammy
*Team B-Carlos, Kendall, Trevor, Noah and Michelle
*Team C-Justin, Matthew, Erica, Harrison and Pablo
Blows whistle* Time's up! Start the game! "Coach Zang says"
You'll never be able to get the ball in the net. Girls shouldn't do sports "Justin says"
Says the guy who has one girl on his team "Erica says extremely offended" You know you need me. That's why you picked me
I picked you to look good not for your skills. You'll fail "Justin says"
You're a jerk "Erica says"
After all the rounds Logan's team and Carlos' teamed scored very high. Justin team has zero points which angers him*
I picked a bunch of losers!! "He says"
You're the one who hogged the ball and didn't let any of us try to score!! "Harrison says" This is your fault. We all shouldn't have to run ten laps around the track outside in the cold cuz of your poor sportsmanship!! *The others agree*
He's right Justin. Basketball is a team sport and you didn't even attempt to work together with your teammates. You'll be running for all of them on the track "Coach Zang says"
Aww man that's not fair! "Justin protests"
It wouldn't be this way if you were a team player in the game. Now go! "Coach Zang says and blows the whistle"
Later after school at hockey practice Logan continues to ignore James*
When he gets home he relaxes by watching Phoebe Nachee videos online, eats dinner, does his homework and goes to bed*
*Wednesday*
In Wood-shop the assignment is to make a birdhouse livable for real bird to fit into*
Logan is doing the measurements and writes down some notes on a piece of paper. It's snatched away by Justin*
Thanks for the notes nerd! "He says"
Give them back Justin. I specifically made them for my birdhouse. They're not gonna work for yours. Not all birdhouses are the same "Logan says"
Not gonna happen! What belongs to you is automatically mine! "Justin says"
I said give them back! "Logan says snatching them away very roughly"
Ow! "Justin says and sees a small amount of blood oozing out of his index finger" You hurt me!!
I was simply getting back what you stole from me. It looks like you got superficial subcutaneous laceration "Logan says"
What? "Justin says confused"
A paper cut "Logan says rolling his eyes"
Why didn't you just say that?! "Justin says frustrated"
I DID. You just didn't understand cuz your brain was too busy being set on evil maniac "Logan says and some kids and class laugh"
You'll be fine Justin "Mr. Lopez says" Its not even worth sending you down to the nurses' office. I've got a first aid kit right here. The bandaids already have Neosporin on them *Wraps one around his finger* There all better. You shouldn't take things that don't belong to you. Leave Logan alone and focus on your birdhouse
Later that afternoon in robotics club. Logan is working peacefully a new bot he's been building for many weeks. A few kids in the club are his friends outside of his regular hanging out with Kendall, James and Carlos*
A kind boy named Danny is impressed with it* Wow Logan that's one amazing looking robot
Thanks Danny. I've worked so hard on it but it seems to still be missing some parts "Logan says"
Like what? "Danny says"
A microchip I can program with an algorithm to control a database that'll contain artificial intelligence, medical knowledge, has a waterproof barrier and is a like a bodyguard "Logan says" I've had many trials and errors and I can't seem to figure out the right formula for this to work
You're like super smart and you managed to build a working robot that functions really well. You can do this "Danny says"
Wow thanks Danny "Logan says"
No problem. I need a bodyguard too. To protect me from *gulps* J-J-Justin "Danny says"
You're one of his victims too? "Logan says"
Quite frequently. He constantly gives me wedgies. I'm running out of my favorite underwear. They're *whispers* Scooby-Doo themed "Danny says"
No shame in liking Scooby-Doo "Logan says"
You don't think he'll come in here and attack us right? "Danny says"
No remember the way to get into this room is a mathematical equation and we both know he doesn't even try to be good in that subject "Logan says"
That's true "Danny says"
We're totally safe "Logan says" I'm gonna also use my robot to help me and Jenny in the talent show
You teamed up with Jenny? "Danny says"
Yeah I sure did "Logan says"
Cool "Danny says"
I like the way your robot looks. Is it you? "Logan says"
No it's my older brother Garret. He wears glasses so I added that feature in. He's in college studying how to be a video game programmer. I really miss him "Danny says" When I was little he would always protect me from bullies but now that he's not here I have no one to protect me. I can't even defend myself from Justin. I've tried so many times. I'm a loser
No you're not. You're super smart and kind and funny and thoughtful. Unlike Justin you have heart of gold. Nothing will ever change that "Logan says"
Thanks Logan "Danny says"
Thanks Logan "Danny says"
Later that evening at a local pizza parlor*
This was so nice to bring me here Logan "Jenny says" I love pizza
Me too. Maybe we can get some inspiration here. The art on the walls are so cool "Logan says"
That's true "Jenny says"
When they're done they go home*
At Kendall's house*
James was right, James was right!! "Carlos says"
About what? "Kendall and James say confusingly"
Logan and Jenny ARE dating!! I saw them myself!! "Carlos says"
We need more details amigo "Kendall says"
I was coming back from the grocery store with my Papi and we passed a pizza parlor and Logan and Jenny were sitting in a booth TOGETHER! Sharing a pizza!! I'm no expert but I think that qualifies as date! "Carlos says"
Absolutely "James says"
Maybe so but that's none of our business unless he tells us "Kendall says"
I still don't trust her "James says"
Your job is to regain Logan's trust. And so far you failed when we were at the comic store. Focus on him! Get back out brother! "Kendall says"
Ok I'll try my best "James says"
Good "Kendall says"
James and Carlos go home*
*Thursday*
Logan walks into school with Jenny. Later in science class they chose to be partners*
I'm gonna be better than you two dweebs "Justin says"
It's not a contest Justin "Logan says rolling his eyes"
Whatever I'm still gonna get a better grade. I'm the best at everything. Lots of kids in here agree "Justin says"
Only cuz you intimidate them "Jenny says annoyed"
It's really ostentatious how you revel in forcing people to fear you instead of being a civilized human being and making friends the normal way "Logan says"
Ugh stop using words that don't make sense word nerd! "Justin says"
At least I know what they mean. All your head is filled with is hostile takeovers and violence "Logan says" Go away to your desk. Some of us want to actually learn
The teacher Mr. Jenkins walks in* Justin stop bothering Logan and Jenny NOW!!
Class starts*
During lunch Logan and Jenny sit together. They even invite Danny to join them*
Are you seeing what I'm seeing? "James says" Clearly they're dating
That's not enough proof James. There's another kid with them "Kendall says"
He's right. We don't have enough evidence "Carlos says"
After school Logan continues to work on his robot then goes home*
*Friday*
Its pizza day in the cafeteria and everyone is happy about that until Justin starts trouble. He targets a kid with crutches struggling to walk and hold his tray of food at the same time*
Give me your slice!! "He says ferociously"
Don't you do anything William! "Logan says"
You already have your slice Justin. Stop being greedy and leave him alone!!
Shut up! "Justin says"
You're a terrible person! You terrorize everyone for no reason. That's why nobody likes you! "Logan says"
Justin lunges at him but is tripped when William sticks out one of crutches* That'll teach you to not mess with people you bully!!
Everyone cheers as Justin angrily walks out*
Thanks for helping me "William says"
You helped me too. I appreciate that and I'll help you take your food to our table. You can join me and my friends "Logan says"
When he gets home he's alone cuz his parents are still out and won't be home until late at night so he has the house to himself*
After about 3hrs of sitting in silence playing solitaire he's startled by a loud knock on the door. He knows the main rule especially when he's in the house by himself is to not answer the door so ignores it but the doorbell is persistently rung which starts to scare him. He sees the doorknob jiggling and panics*
He calls Officer Garcia crying*
Mijo calm down. I'll be there soon "He says and arrives in 10 minutes at the same time Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell arrive"
What's going on? "Mr. Mitchell says"
Is everything ok? "Mrs. Mitchell says"
Logan called me crying saying someone was trying to break into the house. He's really shaken up about it "Officer Garcia says"
Oh baby! "Mrs. Mitchell says and runs into the house and sees her son curled up in the fetal position behind the couch blowing rapidly in and out into a brown paper bag"
Sweetheart it's ok. Help is here *Hugs him* You did the right thing calling Officer Garcia. I'm so proud of you
What if the person is still out there?! "Logan says still panicking"
Officer Garcia and his squad are searching the front and back yard "Mrs. Mitchell says" Come on just breath in out and slowly
Logan does this and starts to calm down*
They found something "Mr. Mitchell says" Some shoe prints in the snow that lead up to our porch then out of the yard and down the street three houses down
Adult shoes? "Logan says"
No child. Most likely a teenager "Officer Garcia says"
Wait three houses down? That's where James lives. Oh he is SO DEAD!! "Logan says and angrily goes up to the house and rings the doorbell*
Ms. Diamond: Hi Logan is everything ok?
No ma'am your son is in a lot of trouble "Logan says"
Ms. Diamond: James get down here right now!
walks downstairs* Yeah mom? "James says"
Can you explain to me why Logan is angry with you and has Officer Garcia with him? What's going on?! "Ms. Diamond says"
I'm not really sure "James says"
Your shoe prints were found in the snow on front porch and leading out the front yard all the way to your house!! Were you the one who was banging on the door and ringing the doorbell like a maniac!! I had a freakin panic attack!! "Logan says"
Oh that. Yeah I was at your house earlier but no one came to the door so I heard sirens and didn't know what was going on so I left "James says"
I thought you were a burglar!! I'm not allowed to answer the door when I'm alone in the house!! And why didn't you call or text me you were at the front door?! Use your brain!! "Logan says"
I'm sorry Logan "James says"
Logan just walks away frustrated and James is grounded for the whole weekend*
Logan uses Saturday and Sunday to relax and mentally recover from the incident*
