Challenges of Love
Chapter 1
Kendall couldn't believe that the entire summer had passed by and that he was about to head to Ann Arbor for college. The only thing that pleased him was his boyfriend of ten months would be only an hour away from him at Michigan State. That was the one part of it that pleased Kendall the most. He looked at the sleeping figure that was sleeping next to him.
Kendall leaned over and gave Logan a gentle kiss on the temple. He watched as the beautiful brunette stirred and slowly opened his eyes. "I am going to miss this." Logan whispered softly.
Kendall felt himself smile and nod in agreement. "I know. It's going to be weird not waking up to you every morning. Tomorrow will be the last time for over a week." Kendall groaned softly.
It was Friday and school started on the following Tuesday. They both had to be there on Monday, though, for orientation. So they were leaving the following day and bunking at a hotel in Lansing. Then Kendall was driving to school that Monday to get settled in.
Kendall heard Logan sigh, then felt arms wrap around his torso followed by a gentle kiss on his chest. Kendall smiled and gave Logan a tight hug. "I love you, Kenny." Logan said softly into Kendall's chest.
He smiled and kissed the top of Logan's head. "And I love you too, my love." Kendall said with a smirk. Kendall glanced at the clock. It was almost noon. "Well, we're supposed to be at James' house at two. We should get up and get a move on so we aren't late."
"Yeah, you're right. James is leaving tomorrow too. It's crazy to think that he and Camille are going to school in New York together." Logan said softly. Kendall couldn't help but let out a slight growl at the sound of Camille's name. He still hadn't gotten over her kissing Logan. Kendall watched as Logan slightly cowered. They hadn't fought about it, but it was clear that it still upset him. "I'm sorry." Logan said quickly.
Kendall shook the feeling off and shrugged his shoulders. "I guess I can't be too mad. I still have you and, from what we've been hearing from James, they seem to be getting pretty serious now."
Kendall couldn't shake the feeling off though. The memory of June when he and Logan had broken up for all of an hour was the worst he had ever felt and he couldn't help but blame Camille for it. It wasn't something he was willing to forgive too easily. Kendall stood up and started getting his stuff ready for a shower.
"Shall you join me?" Kendall asked with a sly grin on his face. He was hoping that Logan would say yes. Kendall could tell by the look on his face though Logan was nervous. "Don't worry, my mom is at work and Katie is at her friend's."
He watched as Logan instantly got a smile on his face. "Okay, but we don't have time for sexy time." Logan said sternly.
"Oh, I'll get my sexy time!" Kendall said with a determined look in his eyes. Kendall adjusted the water to where he knew that they both could take it. Kendall liked warm showers and Logan liked them extremely hot to where his skin was red when he stepped out.
Kendall watched as Logan stripped out of his boxers, but was caught and was met with Logan rolling his eyes. "Were you really just checking me out? Haven't you gotten tired of staring at me?"
Kendall smiled at him. "Eh, not yet. But give it a month or two more and maybe I will." Kendall watched as the expression on Logan's face changed from amused to hurt. He felt guilt rise in him, he knew Logan was still a little worried about them being at separate colleges. "Logie, I was kidding."
Logan gave him a weak smile. "I know you were." Logan said, but something inside told Kendall that he didn't know that.
They got in the shower and Kendall kept blowing soap bubbles at Logan. He was happy when he finally got a genuine laugh from his boyfriend. Kendall was worried that Logan's insecurities would ruin them, he didn't know why Logan was so worried. Kendall had proven time and time again how much he loved Logan.
They were finally heading over to James' house and Kendall kept looking over at Logan. He could tell he had something on his mind; however, Kendall had learned over the last ten months that if Logan was upset he would talk about it when he was ready, when he had all of his thoughts together. Kendall didn't want to push him. So, instead, he grabbed Logan's hand and kissed it gently. "Love you." He said with a cocky smile. Logan smiled back. "What? You don't love me anymore?"
Kendall laughed when Logan blushed. "Of course I do." Kendall would miss seeing that blush on a daily bases.
They walked up to James' door hand-in-hand and walked in. James and Carlos were sitting on the couch watching a movie together and laughing. "Hey, they're here." Carlos said and then smacked James' arm.
James turned around and smiled. "Hey, just think, we won't see each other again until Christmas." James said, but Kendall could see the excitement in his face.
"Speak for yourself. I plan on seeing this one every weekend." Logan said while wrapping his arms around Kendall. Kendall felt a gentle kiss on his cheek. He smiled and hugged Logan back.
"And you guys are leaving me here all by myself to go to Minnesota." Carlos said with a slight pout.
"What are you complaining about? Stephanie is going there too." Kendall shot back at him with a smile. "You know it's crazy that you two," motioning to both Carlos and James, "applied and got into where you did and so did your significant others BEFORE you guys even thought of dating."
"Yeah, maybe it was meant to be." Carlos said with a dreamy look in his eyes. Kendall knew that Carlos was in love with Stephanie. They hadn't said it to each other yet, even though they had been dating for over six months.
They sat down and they watched movies until it was well past midnight. Kendall finally started to yawn and when he looked down at Logan, he noticed that his lover was having trouble even keeping his eyes open. "Are you ready to go, Logie?" He watched as Logan nodded.
They both hugged and said their goodbyes to Carlos and James, promising to do this again when Christmas finally rolled around. Kendall knew that he would get to see Carlos in a few months though because they had a hockey match against each other in early November.
Kendall and Logan finally made it back to Logan's house where they were staying the night. Kendall had packed up all his things and said goodbye to his mom the night before and he, Logan and Logan's mom (who was driving Logan's car behind them) were leaving in the morning to drive to Lansing.
When they were lying in Logan's bed, Kendall gently rubbed the back of Logan's head and kissed him on the forehead. "Kendall?" He heard Logan ask softly.
Kendall knew that tone and the way he said 'Kendall'. Logan was doubting him again. "Yes, Logie Bear..." Kendall said nervously.
He watched as Logan sat up and stared at him for a moment. When Logan looked away, though, he saw a look that he'd only seen on Logan once before...brokenness. Kendall pulled Logan into a tight hug and kissed his forehead. "Logie, what is it?" He asked in a worried tone. He hated one thing above all. And that was Logan being upset.
"Kendall, what if you find someone at Michigan that you think you could love more than me...you're only eighteen. There is so much more out there, and what if I'm not what you're looking for." Logan asked. Kendall could see the tears falling from Logan's eyes. He tightened his grip on Logan.
He held him for a minute and then pulled away. He wiped Logan's tears away with his thumb and then gave Logan a slow and passionate kiss. "Do you feel that?" He asked. He needed Logan to understand. When Logan gave him a confused look he continued. "That spark? I've felt it every single time we've kissed since the first time. That is something I've never felt before with anyone. That is something I'm positive I could never find again."
Logan gave him a weak smile. "You say that now, but how can you be sure that you are going to want me a year from now?" Logan asked. He was looking at Kendall with eyes that were so pathetic and broken. It was slowly ripping Kendall's heart out of his chest.
He pulled Logan into another hug and then kissed the top of his head. "Logan, I've seen what else is out there. I know you hate this fact, but I've been with several other people. Dozens. And I know what else is out there. I know that you are by far the best thing out there for me. We fit together perfectly. It's like we were made for each other. Don't you understand that?"
He watched as Logan's eyes regained their usual spark and his face lit up. He gave Kendall his famous lopsided grin. Logan started nodding his head. "I do know that, I just...I'm afraid, Kendall. I'm so scared that we won't work out. I love you and I can't imagine a world where you aren't mine."
Kendall gave his boyfriend another kiss. "Then be glad you won't ever have to imagine or experience that nightmare."
He heard Logan laugh and it sounded like music to his ears. "You smug bastard." Kendall gave Logan one more gentle kiss and then told him to get some sleep.

Logan woke up with Kendall's arms wrapped tightly around his upper torso and with Kendall's head on his shoulder. Logan couldn't help but chuckle. Kendall was twitching and grunting, something he'd learned his boyfriend did often when he was dreaming of hockey. He softly shook his boyfriend awake and when he saw Kendall sit up suddenly he couldn't help but laugh and ask. "Did you win the Stanley Cup?"
Kendall shot back a friendly glare. "No, maybe I would have if someone had let me sleep and finish the dream!"
Logan couldn't help laughing again; however, when he looked at Kendall, the glare was still there. "Oh, you were serious." Logan said abruptly. He had never met anyone who lived and breathed something so much that they dreamt about it. Logan knew that it was Kendall's life ambition to be center for the Wild and it was something he knew he could support.
Kendall gave him a look of disbelief. "Well, of course I was serious. Have I ever joked about hockey?" Logan shook his head. "Is it already nine?" Kendall said stretching out and looking at Logan.
"Unfortunately, we have to be on the road in the next hour if we want to make it there with good timing." Logan said softly. Kendall nodded and they got up and started to get ready. When they were ready, they packed up Logan's car with the boxes that he was taking with him.
"It still sucks that you have to live on campus your freshman year, I'm ready for it to be next year so we can live together." Kendall said with a smile. Logan couldn't help but smile and blush. Him saying that meant that he wanted to be together a year from now and that made Logan confident that maybe Kendall had meant what he had said the night before.
Logan had been worrying night and day about whether or not he and Kendall would make it when they went to college. He hoped and prayed they would. He had never imagined loving someone so much. He didn't think it was possible. He would have been devastated if Kendall left him again. When Kendall had broken up with him before, the moment Kendall had said it was over Logan's world completely shattered.
He had broken down and felt so empty inside. Logan knew that it had been his fault, but that didn't make it any easier. He hoped that Kendall would stay true to him. It had been Kendall's second nature for so long to just go off and sleep with whoever showed him interest. He was just worried that it would happen again.
When they were done packing up his car, Logan and Kendall walked back into the house and waited on Logan's mom to get ready to go. She had agreed to follow them in Logan's car and then fly back so the two lovers could spend more time together. When Logan saw his mom and dad walk in, he noticed that his mom had tears in her eyes. Logan couldn't help but feel guilty. "Mom, it's not like I'm moving to London, I'm just moving to Michigan." Logan said while walking up and hugging his mom.
He watched as his mom shook her head and wiped her eyes quickly. "I know. I just can't seem to fathom the thought of my one and only baby boy being all by himself in a new town and not knowing anyone at his school."
That had been one of Logan's fears. He hadn't heard of anyone else going to Michigan State from his close group of friends. Kendall was going to be an hour away but that still would seem like a million miles and they would only see each other on weekends.
"That's not true, mom." Kendall piped up. "Logan knows that if he needs anything I am only an hour away and I will ditch any class to come make sure my Logie is okay." Logan felt Kendall bring him into his chest and couldn't help but blush since his parents were watching them.
"I know. I can't believe that you're grown." Mrs. Mitchell said again. She brought Logan into a hug and Logan hugged his mom tightly knowing that it was what she needed.
Logan let go and looked at his dad who was beaming at him. Logan latched on to his dad and gave him a long hug. "I love you, dad." Logan said softly.
When he pulled away he saw his dad's eyes getting misty. "I love you too, son. I'm so proud of the man you've become the last eighteen years." Logan noticed his dad wasn't looking at him anymore, he was looking on Kendall. "You take care of my son." Logan looked back and saw Kendall smile and then nod. "You guys should probably get going."
Logan gave his dad one more hug and then got in the car and they started driving towards Michigan. It was going to take them almost twelve hours to get there. Logan was listening to a CD that Kendall had made for him. Kendall had recorded a few of the songs that he had written for him. It was supposed to remind Logan of how much the taller blond loved him.
Logan smiled when the newest one he wrote started playing. Kendall had named it Music Sounds Better With U. Logan sang along with it and couldn't help but blush when Kendall gave him a weird look. "I see that you like this one?" Kendall asked in a cocky tone.
Logan couldn't help but chuckle. "Of course, I like it. You wrote it for me." Logan said. He eased his seat belt off and gave the blond a kiss. Logan rested his head on the blond's chest and then looked up and gave him a gentle kiss on the neck. When he looked down it looked like Kendall had been aroused by that. He looked up at Kendall. "I see someone is awake."
Kendall gave him a sly grin. "You can wake him up just by looking at me with those innocent brown eyes." Kendall said with a smile.
Logan got a brilliant idea. He knew that he and Kendall wouldn't be able to do anything together for a while and they may be too tired when they got to the hotel. So Logan slowly undid Kendall's belt and looked up to see the eagerness in Kendall's eyes.
Logan pulled down the hem of Kendall's boxers and watched as Kendall Jr. sprang free of his prison. Logan still couldn't believe Kendall's size sometimes. He slowly took the tip into his mouth and swirled his tongue around. He felt Kendall's beloved GTO swerve. Logan couldn't help but chuckle. "I won't do this if you are going to kill us."
Kendall just nodded in response. Logan took that as an agreement to continue. He licked Kendall's entire shaft from base to tip. When he heard Kendall let out a slow and long moan, he smiled and then took the whole length into his mouth. Logan heard Kendall's breath hitch. He continued moving his head up and down.
Logan relaxed his throat as best he could. He knew by now what Kendall liked and how he liked it. He continued moving his head and he felt a chunk of his hair being pulled and then felt Kendall start slightly thrusting into his mouth. "My god, Logan." Kendall breathed out.
Logan pulled Kendall's dick out of his mouth and looked up. "What?" He asked innocently with a smile. In response he felt Kendall grab his head and push him back towards the throbbing cock. Logan continued to move his head up and down and suck as best he could. After about ten minutes he felt Kendall let out a single shiver. "Logie, I'm going to cum." Kendall said, gasping for breath.
Logan felt the familiar tasting juice empty out in his mouth. He licked Kendall's slit making sure that all of it was out and then pulled his boxers back up. He planted a kiss on Kendall's cheek. "Logan, what brought that on?" Kendall asked with a smile on his face.
"Well, I just realized that we wouldn't be able to do this too much after tomorrow and I wanted to." Logan said innocently. He watched as Kendall smiled and chuckled.
"Hard to believe my little Logie has lost most of his innocence." Kendall said with a chuckle.
They finished their drive to Michigan and then stayed the night in a hotel in Lansing. Logan woke up the next morning with dread in his mind. This was the last time he would wake up with Kendall next to him until the following weekend. That thought alone made Logan want to cry.
He looked over and saw that Kendall was already up and looking at him. "I'm going to miss your brown eyes." Kendall said sadly.
"Maybe, your roommate will have brown eyes." Logan said with a joking manner.
He watched as Kendall shrugged his shoulders. "Maybe, but they won't be nearly as amazing as yours, my love." Logan lifted his head and gave Kendall a gentle kiss.
Two hours later they were pulling up to Logan's campus and unloading his car. After an hour of lifting boxes and other various things, Logan's room was full of boxes and books. Logan sat down on his bed and looked at Kendall who was standing there. "Well your dorms are at least nicer than mine. I vote that we stay at yours as often as possible." Kendall said.
"You already know it's going to depend on who can get to the other soonest." Logan said with a smile.
Kendall looked at his phone and frowned. "Well, Logie, orientation for you starts in a half hour and mine starts in three. I have to get there and try and unload some of this."
Logan nodded and walked back out with Kendall. When they got to the familiar car, Logan wrapped his arms around Kendall. "I love you. Call me when you get there?" Logan asked.
"I'll text you. You'll be at orientation." Kendall said in response. Logan clung to Kendall. I'm not going to cry. He told himself. He looked at Kendall and he didn't have tears in his eyes so he wasn't going to cry either. He gave Kendall a kiss then watched as Kendall got in his car and drove away. Logan watched him until he couldn't see Kendall's car anymore. Then he allowed a few tears to fall.
He went to the building that orientation was at and went to the line with an M on it. He was supposed to get his schedule today. He was hoping that he would be pleased with it. He saw a guy with sandy blond hair and brown eyes smiling at him. "Logan, right?" Logan couldn't help but give him a weird look. "Jude, we met when we were getting the tour. I'm on the hockey team with you, and we're roommates."
"Oh right, hey man." Logan said with a smile. "How are you? Have you heard from our captain about the practices?"
Jude shook his head. "We start practice in two weeks, Monday through Saturday." Jude seemed to not be too fond of the thought but shrugged. Logan saw a girl come up behind Jude and wrap her arms around him. Logan's eyes widened when he realized who it was.
"Logan?" She asked in a surprised tone.
Logan knew that his eyes had to be wide. "Emily?"

Kendall was finally pulling up to his new home. He looked at all the kids wearing their Michigan shirts and couldn't help but frown that he was wearing just a plain plaid shirt with black skinny jeans and vans. Dammit, I should have worn something Michigan. He thought bitterly.
He slowly started carrying his guitar and a bag of clothes to his dorm room. He had been sent his room assignment almost a week ago. He was rooming with the other hockey players. When he got to his room he set down his guitar and bag and saw that the other side of his room was completely set up already.
Kendall pulled out his phone and looked at the time. He knew that Logan would still be in orientation but he wanted to make sure he told his lover that he had made it to his school safe and sound so he didn't have to cause his brown eyed boyfriend any unnecessary worry. Made it here, call you when I am done with everything.
He went back out and grabbed a few boxes, then made his way back up. When he got there he saw a guy sitting on the perfectly made bed. The guy stood up and started speaking. "You must be Kendall. I'm Sam." Kendall shook his roommate's hand. Sam had shaggy brown hair that was flipped out and green/blue eyes with some hazel in them. He stood about four inches taller than Kendall. He had high cheek bones and a slight beard growing out.
"Nice to meet you...wait how did you know who I was?"
Sam laughed. "Oh, my brother, Dean, told me. He is good friends with Christian. Christian set it up so all hockey players are rooming with other hockey players. Something about not wanting to disturb innocent non-hockey players when he makes us get up early?"
Kendall couldn't help but laugh at Sam's tone. "So is your brother on the team too?" Kendall asked curiously.
Sam shook his head. "Yeah, Dean is a junior here. He and Christian have been friends since he was a freshman. I applied here so I could play on the same team with my brother again for the next two years. I would have went to Notre Dame had my brother not been here. Need some help carrying in the rest of your boxes?" Sam asked with a smile.
Kendall nodded. "Yeah. That'd be great. Thanks a lot man." Kendall and Sam started walking out of the dorm and back down to Kendall's car.
"So tell me about yourself. Where are you from, what brought you to Michigan?" Sam asked. Kendall smiled because it seemed like Sam genuinely wanted to know. "Don't think I'm weird but we're roommates for a year. It'd be nice to get to know you and all that junk."
Kendall laughed. "I understand. Let's see. I'm from Duluth, Minnesota. I was actually going to go to school there but my boyfriend got a scholarship at Michigan State so I decided to come here to be closer to him, honestly."
He looked over at Sam expecting him to be disgusted. Kendall knew that even though a lot of people were understanding, there were still many who were disgusted by the thought of two guys being together. It didn't seem to faze Sam though. He noticed Sam look over at him and grin.
"What, surprised that I'm not threatening you for being gay?" Sam asked in an amused tone. Kendall just nodded in response. "Well, Dean rooms with a gay guy. Christian has been with his boyfriend for like three years and they are serious. The three of them came to visit over the summer. I will admit before it bothered me, but being around Christian and his boyfriend, Jacob, got me over that."
"So Christian and your brother are close? Why doesn't Christian room with his boyfriend?" Kendall asked curiously.
He noticed Sam raise an eyebrow at this. "Well, Jacob goes to school at Western. So there is some distance. They visit when they can from what I understand though. Besides, I'm pretty sure that Christian and Dean have a slight male crush on each other. It's a total bromance." Sam said with laughter.
"That's not too bad. There are a lot of acceptable bromances now-a-days." Kendall said. They had finally reached Kendall's car. He watched as Sam stopped suddenly. "What?"
"Sweet car. It reminds me of my brother's. Is this a 67?" Sam asked with an excited tone.
"No, it's a 68." Kendall said with a smile on his face. He never got tired of people admiring his car.
"Nice, my brother has a 67 Impala. It's his pride and joy. He refuses to even let me drive it." Sam said. They started grabbing Kendall's bag and they were carrying the rest of his stuff up to the room and after three trips they finally had it all in their room.
"So, when do I get to meet your brother?" Kendall asked curiously.
Sam looked at his watch. "In about an hour and a half. We have to go to orientation and then Christian called a team meeting right after on the ice. We aren't suiting up just meeting in the stands to familiarize ourselves with each other."
Kendall and Sam started walking to where their orientation was being held when he felt his phone start to vibrate. He looked and saw that it was Logan. "Hey, I'm gonna take this. Sorry, it's my boyfriend." Kendall said to Sam. Sam only nodded in response. "Hey, Logie." He glared at Sam when he let out a chuckle.
"Kenny, I miss you already. Come back." Logan said instantly. Kendall chuckled.
"Believe me, if I could I would. I miss you too." Kendall said softly, trying not to let Sam overhear him.
"Awww, how cute." He heard his roommate say. Kendall chuckled and flipped Sam off before lightly pushing him. Kendall couldn't explain it, but he knew that Sam and him were going to be close.
"Shut up, man, I'm talking to Logan." Kendall said with a laugh.
"Who's that?" Logan asked. Kendall could hear the worry in his voice. Kendall knew that Logan was worried that Kendall would ditch him, but Kendall knew he wouldn't.
"That's Sam, my annoying and totally straight roommate." Kendall said in a teasing voice.
He heard Logan chuckle and saw Sam raise an eyebrow. "Was the straight part necessary?" Logan asked. "So you aren't going to believe who I saw at orientation today."
Kendall knew that no one from Duluth West had gone to Michigan or MSU, so he couldn't even imagine who he would have seen so he decided to go the smart ass route. "Santa Claus? No, wait...the Easter Bunny?"
"HAHA. Not funny, I'm being serious." Logan said, but even Kendall could hear the smile over the phone. "Emily."
Kendall almost dropped his phone. "Emily? As in my ex-girlfriend?" Kendall asked.
"Yeah, she goes here. I almost fainted when I saw her. And get this...she's my roommate's girlfriend. Small frickin world, huh?" Logan said.
Sam was smacking Kendall's arm and pointing to his watch, mouthing. "We need to go in." Kendall nodded. "Listen, I have to go to orientation. Can I call you after?" Kendall asked.
"Yeah, don't forget please. I love you." Logan said.
"I love you too. Bye." Kendall hung up and looked at Sam. "Not cool, man."
Sam just laughed in response. "I like to fuck with people. And what was up with the straight comment? You haven't even asked my orientation. What if I was a flamer?" Sam asked while holding the door open for Kendall.
"Well, what is your orientation?" Kendall asked raising an eyebrow. He was going to call B.S. if Sam said he was gay.
"I'm straight of course, but that isn't the point." Sam said while they sat down. Kendall couldn't help but laugh and just shake his head at his new friend. "And what was with the comment?"
"Logan is kind of worried I'll leave him for someone else. I think he's relieved that I'm rooming with a straight guy." Kendall admitted.
Sam didn't have time to respond because their orientation started. They were given papers of instructions of how to look up their schedules. Afterwards, Sam and Kendall headed to the rink to meet with the rest of the team. They were joined by one other freshman, whose name was Will.
They walked in and Kendall instantly recognized Christian, with his blue eyes and dark hair. He went over and slapped hands with Christian. "Kendall, my man, how are you?"
"Good, good. Just got out of orientation." Kendall said cheerfully. He saw a guy with short spiky light brown hair and green hazel eyes, ruffle Sam's hair.
"Kendall, this is my brother, Dean. Dean, this is my roommate Kendall." Sam said.
Kendall shook Dean's hand. Dean was the same height as Kendall. They stood eye level. "Nice to meet you, good luck with putting up with this guy." Dean said with a smile on his face. Kendall couldn't help but notice how deep Dean's voice was. It was a voice that had a lot of sex appeal to him. Sam lightly pushed Dean, for his comment.
"That's enough," Christian said. He told everyone to sit down, and Kendall couldn't help but laugh when Dean put two fingers over his lips, trying to imitate a Hitler mustache and then pointed to Christian. Kendall lost it though when Dean did the "hail hitler" arm movement. The dirty look from Christian stopped that though.
Kendall didn't listen to much of what Christian was saying. For some reason, he couldn't get his mind off of Logan. He couldn't help but think how weird it was being away from his raven haired, perfect boyfriend. He missed him. He realized that the next morning would be the first morning he would wake up without him in over six months.
The team meeting only lasted about twenty minutes before Christian said they could go. "Hey, I'm gonna talk to my brother for a moment." Sam informed Kendall and then walked over to where Dean was standing.
Kendall felt a tap on his shoulder. He looked behind him and saw Christian standing there with a wide smile on his face. "So, mind telling me what that message on Facebook was about last year?" Christian asked curiously.
Kendall face palmed his self. He had almost completely forgotten about that. He chuckled. "Yeah, I kind of lied to Logan and told him I had feelings for you and we were going to be together so I could break up with him." Kendall said like it was nothing.
He watched as Christian's eyes bugged out. "That's messed up, so you're single?"
Kendall shook his head. "No, the break up didn't last long. He figured out I lied, and we worked things out. We've been together now for like ten months. My longest relationship, honestly man."
Christian smiled at him. "Me and mine are coming up on four years in March. Time flies when you have found the one you want forever." Christian said with a dreamy look in his eyes.
Kendall recognized the look all too well, he knew that he got that look whenever he thought of Logan and that Logan looked like that quite often. "Yeah, that's what I'm aiming for. But hey, I'll catch you later." Kendall turned on his heel and started walking towards the door.
He let his mind wander back to Logan, but that quickly changed when he felt someone put their hands on his shoulders and leap frog over him. He saw a brunette turn around and smile. "Damn, you're short." Sam said with a grin.
Kendall shook his head. "Not all of us can be six three." Kendall couldn't help but chuckle, though, at the fact he'd just been called short.

Logan was sitting in his biology class taking notes. He was glad that in his first class the teacher decided to dive right into the lesson. It was what he needed, his mind was a mess. He was nervous. Kendall had spent the majority of the night before convincing him that he wasn't going to cheat on him. But Logan couldn't help but be worried. Kendall made friends easily, Kendall's roommate Sam was proof of that.
The way Logan heard Kendall and Sam interact made it seem like they'd been friends all their lives and not just a day. Logan remembered his Skype conversation with Kendall the night before. Sam had introduced himself, but Logan noticed how gorgeous Sam was. He had dark hair and dark eyes too. What if one night Kendall did something stupid?
Logan shook the thought out of his head, he needed to trust Kendall. Kendall hadn't done anything to make him even remotely think that he'd ever cheat on him. But it was hard, seeing Kendall and Sam wrestle and push each other had really gotten under Logan's skin. Logan knew that he was being jealous and ridiculous but he couldn't help it. Kendall was an hour away and he didn't get to see him. Logan sighed again and then refocused his attention to the teacher at the front of the classroom who was writing stuff on the board.
Logan copied notes and asked the questions that came to his mind. Logan was pleased that for once he seemed to be surrounded by a lot of intellectuals. In high school, he'd been one of very few people to take his classes seriously. But now, he was surrounded by others who wanted nothing more than to listen to a lecture.
Logan was surprised when he felt the phone in his pocket vibrate. He pulled it out and noticed that it was only eight in the morning and Kendall was probably just getting up since his classes didn't start until nine. He looked at the text and smiled to himself. Good morning, my love. It's insane how much I missed you just now. Waking up alone sucks. Come cuddle...please.
Logan hid his phone. He didn't want his professor to think that he was being disrespectful. It was very weird. And I wish I could. I love you. I have a break in classes from nine to eleven. Call then.
Logan continued to pay attention to his professor and when it was time to leave he gathered all his things and made his way to the door. He saw a guy he recognized from the hockey team walking by. "Logan, right?" The guy asked. Logan racked his brain for this guy's name.
"Yeah, and your...damn it. I'm sorry. I've been horrible with names." Logan confessed. He couldn't help but feel bad that he kept forgetting people's names.
The guy laughed. "It's cool, and it's Gary." Logan smiled at him. Gary had pale grey eyes and had light brownish, red hair. He stood maybe a half foot taller than Logan. "What's your next class?"
"I have psych." Logan said with a grin. "I have a break though till eleven. I'm gonna go get something to eat."
"I have biology, just was waiting for him to let you guys go. Have a good day, Logan." Gary said with a smile on his face.
Logan smiled back and waved him goodbye. He pulled out his phone and dialed his best friend's number. "Hello there my bestest friend in the world." He heard Carlos say.
Logan couldn't help but laugh and miss his friend. "Hey, Carlitos. What are you up to? How is the first day?" Logan had worried about Carlos going to college. He didn't have anyone there to hold his hand through it.
"It was okay. I have one more class then I am home free. And it's not so bad. I have Stephanie here at least." Logan heard him say. He then heard a "Hi, Logan." Come from Stephanie.
"I'm jealous you guys get to go to school together." Logan said softly. He heard Carlos laugh at him. "Dude, it isn't funny."
"You guys are an hour away. Deal." Carlos said still laughing.
"Easy for you to say." Logan said. Logan let his bottom lip stick out even though no one was there to see it. "You won't believe who is going here."
He heard Carlos stop laughing. "Who?"
"Kendall's ex-girlfriend, Emily." Logan said. He heard Carlos gasp. "Yeah, that was my reaction too. And Kendall is really chummy with his new roommate. He tells me that Sam is straight but I'm not so sure, I think he is lying to–" But he was cut off.
"Dude! Don't go there. Kendall wouldn't lie to you about that. He loves you and even if his roommate is gay, what does it matter? Kendall loves you and wouldn't cheat on you. If he was going to cheat on you he would have done it already." Logan couldn't help but be surprised that Carlos was taking up for Kendall.
"Yeah, I guess you're right." Logan said softly. He knew that he was being ridiculous but he couldn't help it. Logan was realizing and coming to terms with the fact that he was just a jealous person.
"I am. I have to go. We're going to class. Talk to you later, Loges." There was a click on the other end before Logan could even say anything.
Logan walked to the cafeteria and got some food. His mom made sure that he had a meal ticket here so he could eat whatever he wanted. He was sitting, eating a sloppy joe when he felt his phone vibrate. He looked at it and saw Kendall's picture staring at him.
"Hey, Kenny." He said cheerfully into the phone.
"Logie, I miss you so much." Kendall said with enthusiasm. Logan couldn't help but smile at the sound of Kendall's voice.
"I miss you too, waking up alone this morning sucked." Logan said softly.
"I know it did." Kendall said. Logan couldn't help but frown when he heard someone else in the background.
"Knight, come on, we need to eat before our next class. You can talk to lover boy later." He recognized Sam's voice already.
"Sorry, Logie–" Kendall started.
"Don't. Just don't. Its' fine...tell Sam I say hi." Logan hung up before he even got a response. He looked at his phone. It was ten thirty. Logan looked at his food and decided that he wasn't hungry anymore. He walked up and threw the rest of the contents in the trash and then walked towards his class.
When he got there, he saw Gary talking to some other guys that Logan didn't know. Logan couldn't help but be frustrated. He didn't make friends easily, not as easily as Kendall did and he felt alone. He didn't know anyone really and it was tearing him up after only one day. Its' okay, Logan told himself, Things will get better. They can only get better.
"Hey, one right after the other?" Logan asked Gary with a smile.
"Yeah, I like to just knock them out. I have one more after this one and then free for the rest of the day." Gary said with a smile. "So while we're waiting, what position are you?"
"Left wing. You?" Logan asked. Logan knew that he needed to be more sociable. Maybe that was why Kendall made friends so easily. He was always talking to people. Maybe if Logan did that he could make a few too.
"I'm goalie. I'll be back up this year but both their goalies are seniors so I'll be able to take over next year, thankfully." Gary said with a grin. "Now, I just need to bide my time."
Logan smiled at him. They walked into the room together and Logan was surprised when Gary sat down next to him. He saw someone sit on the other side of him as well and when he looked over he saw Emily.
"Hey, Logan." She said with a sweet smile on her face.
"Hi." He said politely.
"So, we didn't really talk much when we first met, how are you and Kendall doing? Well, I hope." She said with a friendly smile.
Logan let a wide grin creep on his face. "We're doing great. I miss him though, him being an hour away from me sucks. I just wish he was here with me." Logan said.
"Wait, you have a boyfriend?" He heard Gary say on the right of him. Logan only nodded in response. "Nice to know, that I'm not the only gay guy on the team."
Logan smiled at him and then turned his attention to the professor who was walking in. He announced that they needed to partner up into three for their first psych project. Logan looked at Emily and then Gary and they nodded. Logan was glad he knew two people in the room because he would have felt like a loser had he been the only one without a partner.
Logan sighed when he walked into the dorm. Jude wasn't there so he took the time to pull out his laptop and open up Skype. He was pleased to see that Kendall was on. He hit the video chat button, happy when the familiar blond appeared on the screen. "So you aren't mad at me anymore?" Kendall asked with a smile.
"I wasn't ever mad. Just annoyed, I guess." Logan admitted. He watched as Kendall smiled. "So how was your first day?"
"It was good. I have all my classes with at least one member of the team and two of the three are with Sam so that helps." Kendall said with a smirk. Logan didn't like the smirk though. It made him paranoid.
"You two seem to be awfully close already..." Logan said softly.
"He's a good guy; we get along. He's a lot like me and we joke around. He's like a brother–"
Logan couldn't hear this. "You've known him for a day." Logan snapped.
"Logan, I make friends easily. Are you mad at me for that? He's my roommate. I want to be close to him. Have a good friend to help me in this crazy college life." Kendall said desperately. Logan could see that Kendall was getting frustrated and he couldn't help but feel bad that he was ruining his and Kendall's conversation.
"I'm sorry. I'll stop." Logan said and looked down.
"So tell me, my love, how was your first day?" Kendall asked trying to switch the subject.
"It was good, had to partner up in psych. Emily and I are gonna partner with–" But it was his turn to be cut off.
"WHAT?" Kendall yelled. Logan could see the anger in Kendall's eyes. It was a type of anger and hatred that Logan hadn't seen in a while. "What the fuck are you thinking? Why would you partner with her?"
"Kendall, I don't know anyone else...so we just–"
"NO!" Kendall yelled. "She fucked my world up...do what you want." Logan watched as Kendall hit a button on his laptop and then he was gone. Logan allowed the sobs to overtake him then.

Kendall looked over to the right and saw Sam staring at him from his bed. "Well, that didn't seem like a pleasant conversation."
"Not in the mood, Sam." Kendall said with a growl.
Sam slightly cowered and held up his hands defensively. "I'm sorry, what's going on?" Sam asked with a concerned look on his face.
Kendall sighed and sunk down in his chair. "This girl I dated, who messed my head up for years...he's partnering with her. I don't want him anywhere near her. What if she rubs off on him? And not only that, he thinks something is going on with us."
"Well isn't there?" Sam asked in a joking manner. Kendall gave him a dirty look. "Kidding, geez. No need for the death glare, put it away forever. He does know I'm straight, right?"
Kendall just shook his head. "I don't care about that to be honest. I just, ugh, why would he do this? I don't want him anywhere near Emily."
Sam put down his notebook and sat next to him. "Then tell him that. If he loves you like you say he does, he will understand."
Kendall didn't know what to think anymore. He didn't know why Logan wanted to be friends with Emily. Kendall had no interest in being friends with any of his exes. And the last thing Kendall needed was Logan asking Emily questions and comparing their relationships. Kendall sighed. He felt his phone buzz. He reached in his pocket and pulled it out. I'm sorry, I thought you were over her.
Kendall felt the rage overtake him. Logan thought he wasn't over Emily. He couldn't believe this. He didn't even want to justify what he had said. But he couldn't help but type back Whatever. You know that isn't it. "That's it. I'm going to work out." Kendall said.
"I'll come with." Sam said and with that they went to the gym.
A/N: Okay, so anyone who can tell me where I got my OC characters from in Kendall's side of the story gets a chapter dedicated to them. I'm curious to see if anyone picks up on it. I was watching that show while writing this so I used the names.
And this came out about 3,000 words longer then I meant it to. Geez. I guess I missed writing this epic tale.
So what does everyone think? Should I have quit while I was ahead, or do you like? Reviews would
