A/N: So sorry I haven't updated! I have been busy with school. I have no idea where this story is going. One minute it's a date, the next we have an ex coming in and fighting for the girl! After a few more chapters, I think this will end. But anyway, here is chapter 6, Read & Review! Enjoy!
Carlos sat down on a deck chair at the Palm Woods pool. It was strange, he had texted and called Stephanie like 5 times, but she hadn't answered back. Something must be wrong. He picked up his phone and tried calling again.
Meanwhile...
Stephanie opened her eyes to the back of a van. She was confused, and realised that she was tied up around her torso and arms. What had happened? Suddenly her phone went off. Her fingers were at her pocket where her phone was, so she grabbed it and managed to press the 'answer' button.
"Hello?" she said from a distance into the phone. She couldn't put it to her ears, so she pressed 'speaker'.
"Stephanie! I've been calling and texting! Why haven't you answered?" Carlos exclaimed from the other end of the phone.
"Uh, I've um, I've been sleeping" Stephanie replied. 'I hope he buys that!' she thought as she waited for an answer.
"Oh. Sorry. I didn't realise" Carlos said in a hushed tone.
"It's ok. Listen, I'm actually tied up at the back of a van somehow! Help!" Stephanie said.
"You're WHAT? How?" Carlos exclaimed.
"I don't know! I think Aidan has got me!" Stephanie replied. On the other end of the phone, Carlos grumbled and cursed Aidan under his breath.
"Ok can you see where you are?" he asked Stephanie.
"Um, I think so. I 'm at..." Stephanie paused as she glanced out the window to see where she was "... Las Vegas- wait, LAS VEGAS? How did I get here?" she said in astonishment.
"So I'm gonna have to drive all the way up to Vegas?" Carlos asked.
"Yeah... oh wait, we're stopping. I think we ran out of gas" Stephanie replied.
"Ok, I'm in the car now. I'm coming to get you!" Carlos said.
"Thanks Carlos! See you!" Stephanie said.
"Bye" Carlos said as he hung up and drove faster.

As the van stopped at the gas station, Stephanie waited anxiously for Carlos' car to find them. She wasn't sure if Aidan knew she was awake yet, but she had to get out of here. Fast. She struggled and twisted through the ropes, but it was useless. The ropes were on too tight. Stephanie was sure her arms would go numb if she didn't get out of the ropes soon. After a couple more minutes of struggling, she managed to undo one of the ropes around her arms.
As she continued to struggle she heard footsteps coming toward the van. Aidan was coming back! But she looked out the window and saw a car coming in to the gas station. Not just any car, but the car she was most looking forward to seeing, Carlos' shiny black car. 'Yes! I'm saved!' she thought as Carlos jumped out of the car.
"HEY!" Carlos said loudly to Aidan, who jumped and turned around. As soon as he saw Carlos, he laughed.
"Aw, look. It's the little wimp from the stupid band that wears a helmet! And he's here! Did the wittle man get wost and wants his mummy?" Aidan teased.
"Shut up, where is she?"Carlos demanded.
"Where's who?" Aidan asked trying to act all innocent.
"Stephanie! I know you have her. Where is she?" Carlos demanded again, even louder.
"I don't know what you're talking about" Aidan said.
"Yeah you do! Now I'm gonna ask one more time. Where–" Carlos was broken off by a muffled voice from inside the van.
"Carlos! Carlos I'm in here!" Stephanie exclaimed from the van. 'Come and save me!' she thought.
"Stephanie!" Carlos exclaimed and moved towards the van, but was stopped by a big arm that belonged to Aidan.
"And where do you think you're going?" Aidan asked hotly. Carlos paused and looked down. He looked back up with a confident look on his face.
"I'm going to get my girl. Now if you'll excuse me..." Carlos said as he tried to pass by Aidan. If Carlos thought he could get passed Aidan with ease, he was wrong. Aidan wasn't going to let Carlos get away. When Carlos pushed passed Aidan, Aidan grabbed Carlos' arm and threw him against the door of the van. Carlos rubbed his shoulder and looked at Aidan with an angry face.
"So that's how it's gonna be, huh?" Carlos said as he stepped towards Aidan and pushed him in the shoulder.
"Oh, it's on now!" Aidan growled and punched Carlos in the stomach. Carlos groaned in pain and held his stomach, but he quickly hid the look of pain in his face and kneed Aidan in a place where you wouldn't want to be kneed. Aidan groaned in pain and dropped to the ground.
"Take that, loser!" Carlos said as he ran towards the van. Aidan on the ground gave Carlos enough time to save Stephanie. He flung open the door and found Stephanie tied up in ropes.
"Stephanie!" he exclaimed as he knelt by her and quickly untied the ropes.
"Thanks Carlos! And what did you do to him?" Stephanie said once she was out of the ropes and she hugged Carlos.
"Uh, we got into a bit of a fight..." Carlos trailed off.
"Is he unconscious?" Stephanie asked.
"No...he's just in lots of pain" Carlos explained. The jumped out of the van and saw Aidan trying to get up. 'Wow, I must have kneed him hard!' Carlos thought. He and Stephanie got into Carlos' car and drove back to the Palm Woods, without Aidan on pursuit. After about 5 minutes, Carlos was the first to speak.
"So, why did he want you back?" he asked.
"No idea, probably wanted the fame. But I'm not even famous yet!" she replied. Carlos chuckled at that, and they spent the rest of the car ride singing along to songs on radio and chatting.
When they arrived at the Palm Woods lobby, Jo, Camille, and the rest of Big Time Rush were waiting for them.
"Stephanie!" Jo & Camille cried at the same time as they ran up to her and hugged her.
"We were so worried!"
"Are you ok?"
"Yes, I'm fine!" Stephanie replied with a giggle.
"Hey, what about me? I got into a fight with that jerk!" Carlos whined for attention. The girls smiled and hugged him too.
"Whoa, wait you got into a fight? Give me the details!" James exclaimed excitedly.
"Well, first he shoved me into the van, then I pushed his shoulders, then he punched me in the stomach, then I kneed him in the nuts! Then we got away" Carlos said with a big grin.
"Way to go dude!" Kendall congratulated him and patted him on the back. Logan gave Carlos a high-five. Carlos turned his attention to Stephanie, who was talking to the girls. Stephanie caught his eye and walked over to him.
"Thanks for saving me from a horrible life with him" Stephanie said through gritted teeth when she said 'him'.
"No worries, I mean you're my girlfriend so..." Carlos trailed off as they got lost in each other's eyes. They both leaned in... and soon their lips met each other. The kiss lasted about 5 seconds before they heard Jo and Camille go 'Aww!' and the other boys clear their throats. They broke apart and smiled at each other.
"Well, gotta go, bye!" Stephanie said as she hugged Carlos and rushed to the elevator. Carlos sighed after her and smiled.
