Cover Girl

Part 5

Taking a quick look at Kendall's watch, Lilly knew they were in for it, seeing as they were late for sound check.

"I don't mean to alarm anyone-" Lilly started, but shared a grunt with others as they landed back on the ground, hearing the tires screech. "But we are late!" She continued.

"We'll make it." Penny assured as she drove towards the park.

"My sensors detect police in the vicinity, therefore, I have calculated the perfect disguises to get you to your destination in Hyde Park." The van explained as Penny pulled over, parking the van.

"Copy that."

~~~
A few minutes later, the group exited the van. Penny was dressed as a school girl with braids and fake glasses. Lilly was dressed in a two-piece light-blue dress, complete with heels and a pearl headband adorning her blonde hair. Kendall wore a white track suit, paired with a long brown wig. Carlos looked like a punk rocker, decked in leather and hair up in a mohawk. James was dressed as a hippie, a pink and purple headband around the wig he wore. And finally, Logan jumped out of the van, clad in a light brown puppy-dog costume.

Logan immediately took off the dog head, gesturing to the rest of his outfit. "Really?" He deadpanned.

"Really." Penny nodded with a smile.

"Hey, I think you look nice." Lilly said to her brother, giving him a mocking smile. And what she got in return was slap on the back of the head.

"Shut up, Li."

"Well, it looks better than that rubbish you wear onstage." The van commented.

"Okay, that's it! an your sensors detect this?" Kendall asked.

"Don't-" Penny tried, but was too late, seeing as Kendall kicked the van, who in return hit him with the door.

"I have had enough. They are unauthorized and denied all van access." The van said, shutting and locking all its door.

"Oh, wait, wait!" "Come on!" "I left my clothes in there!" The five teens pleaded with the van with no avail.

"Okay. We can work this out. We are hench-boys-and-girl for the daughter of a secret agent and also on Britain's most wanted list. But we've been in worse situations, right?" Kendall said.

"Not even close." The other four responded, looking at the taller blonde.

"We can work it out!" Kendall exclaimed.

"The park is across the street. Split up." Penny started, ignoring James, who popped up next to her. "Avoid police, any fans who have arrived for the concert early, and good luck." She continued. And with that, the group ran off.

"Don't forget, at some point we sing a Beatles song and save Lilly." Carlos explained quietly to the other four. All five had gathered behind the van, looking towards the park.

"Lilly's not a princess, okay?" Logan exclaimed, voice muffled by the dog head. "And are we singing The Beatles? Huh? Do we look like The Beatles? No." The smart boy rambled as they all crossed the street, stopping for a quick second mid-walk. "Wait a minute."

~~~
Lilly, Kendall and Logan ended up splitting up from the others, going through a dog area of the park. Carlos had been sneaking through the park, managing to hide behind trees to avoid fans. And James had walked off with Penny in an attempt to get alone time with her.

While the three walked through the park, Lilly huffed, falling behind the boys occasionally.

"Okay, what's wrong?" Kendall asked, an amused look on his face as he watched Lilly.

"What's wrong? I'm all for looking like a princess- makes me feel pretty. But walking through grass in heels? This is the worst." Lilly complained.

"Here, just take the heels off and you'll be able to walk better." Kendall suggested, holding an arm out to Lilly to use as a support.

"But what if I step-" Lilly started.

"Then you suffer in silence." Logan interrupted.

Lilly gave her brother a look while she took off her heels. "Hmph." She huffed, deciding to ignore the dog next to her.

~~~
After a while of walking, the teens got bored and started playing around in the park. Lilly smiled and laughed, watching as Logan rolled around on the grass.

She laughed even harder when she saw her boyfriend do the same as Logan. Lilly was near tears when she noticed a woman with a chihuahua giving the boys a look when she passed by.

But the three ignored the woman and continued messing around. The youngest snorted when she saw Kendall 'shoot' Logan, giggling when she saw her brother flop on the ground.

Kendall even pulled out a candy bar, dropping the chocolate on the ground. Logan had turned around and squatted, neither noticing that Lilly had recorded them. The same woman from before walked by again, giving the three a disgusted look while they walked away.

The woman let down her chihuahua, who barked and started running towards the trio. Kendall and Logan looked back in worry, immediately taking off. Lilly's smile never faltered as she picked up her dress a bit, running after the boys while the small dog chased them.

While they ran, Kendall and Logan slowly took off their diguises, throwing the clothing items at the chihuahuas in an attempt tp get it to stop chasing them. But the three managed to out run the dog and caught up with James and Carlos, who had also thrown away their disguises. The teens had made it to their sound check.

"♪ Try to see it my way... Only time will tell if I am right or am I wrong ♪" Kendall said, gesturing for the coordinator to turn the mics up.

"♪ While you see it your way... There's a chance that we might fall apart before too long ♪" Lilly sang next, using Carlos as a support while she put her heels back on.

"♪ We can work it out, we can work it out ♪" The five teens sang, finishing their sound check.

Lilly nudged her boyfriend, gaining his attention. "What's wrong?" Kendall asked quietly, worry immediately making its way onto his face. Luckily for the couple, their conversation went unnoticed by the other boys.

"Nothing, I just need to change." Lilly spoke in the same quiet tone.

"Why? You look beautiful like this." Kendall whispered.

Lilly slightly blushed at the compliment. "I can't be a spy and help you guys if I'm wearing a dress. I know the way back to the hotel, it should be close to here." Lilly explained.

"Just be careful and avoid getting caught, please." Kendall said.

"I will, don't worry." Lilly assured. The taller boy nodded, pecking Lilly on the lips, watching as the younger blonde made her way off stage.

Finding a secluded area on one side of the stage, Lilly sat down, adjusting the straps on her heels before making her way back to the hotel. Unbeknownst to her, the boys had ran off a few seconds after she left. And as Lilly started her walk, a horrible feeling made its way to the pit of her stomach; a very similar feeling she felt during the first concert they ever played.

"It's just my nerves. Everything is fine. Nothing bad will happen." Lilly said to herself, taking deep breaths.
