Having lots of security on set was awkward at first, but the cast and crew grew accustomed to it. Not that they had much free time to begin with, but when they weren’t filming the stars chose to stay at home rather than going out with a security detail close by.
It had been about a month of this and Kendall was growing very antsy. He was tired of being cooped up and decided on his next day off he was getting out of the apartment.
It was Friday night and Kendall had a huge grin on his face. The next day he was finally getting out of the house and he was going to do something special for his friend, Dustin. He waited in the kitchen for his roommate to get out of the shower.
“What are you grinning about?” The dark-haired boy asked as he sat down at the counter.
Kendall ignored the question. “What are you doing tomorrow?”
“Nothing?” Dustin could tell something was up, but he wasn’t sure what.
“Think again, Dbelt. We’re going to Disneyland!” Kendall said, trying his best not to squeal. He knew how much his best friend loved ‘the happiest place on earth.’
“What?”
“I’m. Taking. You. To. Disneyland.”
Dustin’s eyes lit up. He may be a 20 year old hipster, but he fucking loved Disneyland. This was going to be a great weekend.

The next morning the two boys woke up early to get ready. Dustin wanted to get to the park before it became too crowded and they would have to wait in those long ass lines. Also, tradition dictated they would have breakfast at the Denny’s near the park.
He looked at the clock and saw the time. Dustin was about to yell at Kendall to hurry up because they needed to leave soon when he heard a knock at the door. His eyebrows furrowed together trying to think of who could be stopping by this early. He opened the door and was surprised to see….
“Logan. What are you doing here?”
Before the shorter boy could answer, Kendall appeared from around the corner. “Oh, yeah. I forgot to tell you. I invited Logan along. You know he’s from Texas. He’s never been to Disneyland before.”
“Oh. Well, the more the merrier, right?” Dustin said without much enthusiasm. It would be a lie to say he wasn’t disappointed. They hadn’t had much ‘bro time’ the past few months and he was looking forward to hanging out with Kendall one on one.
Logan just smiled brightly. “So, are you guys ready to go or?”
“Yeah, I’m totally ready. How about you Dbelt?”
Dustin nodded and the three boys loaded up in Kendall’s Jetta, Logan sitting in the back seat and Dustin up front by his best friend and headed on their way.

Things were pleasant most of the day. Lots of laughs were had on the drive over and they all enjoyed their breakfast at Denny’s. The rides were great as usual and then of course there was the food; the funnel cakes, the turkey legs and everything that truly made this the happiest place on earth. Dustin was feeling great. That was until he looked at the photos of the trip.
He scanned through the 50 or so photos that were taken with his digital camera and every one that included Kendall and Logan made him grow more and more angry. In each photo, the two boys had their arms around each other, and standing awkwardly beside them was Dustin. He looked like a third wheel. This was his and Kendall’s day, not Logan’s. Dustin huffed and crossed his arms over his chest. He furrowed his brow and pulled up the menu screen on his camera. He pushed a few buttons and hesitated only a moment before selecting DELETE ALL. Seconds later, Kendall entered the room.
“How did the photos come out?”
“There was an error with my data card and none of the pictures saved,” he lied.
“That’s too bad. I know we took some awesome pictures.”
“Yeah,” was all he could say.
“Luckily, we still have this one!” Kendall said brightly as he handed the photo to Dustin.
As the dark hair boy looked at the photo, anger boiled in him once more. He bit his tongue to hold back the growl that threatened to escape his mouth. It was the park photo from Splash Mountain. In the front seat sat Logan and Kendall, huge smiles on their faces, while Dustin sat behind them looking pathetic and alone.
