Love JAGAN!
"James! At least listen to me!" Logan yelled.
"Huh? What?"
Logan sighed. He should have never agreed to tutor James. But how could he say no? He was Logan after all. Logan took a deep breath before letting it out. He turned to his friend.
"This is last chance I give you. If you don't pay attention, I'm leaving. And I mean it."
"Okay, okay. You need to relax."
"Whatever." He turned to the books and started explaining Pythagoras theorem. All over again. What he didn't notice was James staring at his reflection in a little pocket mirror.
Logan took a pause. Before he could turn to look at his friend, James dropped his mirror in his lap. Logan raised an eyebrow.
"What were you doing?" He asked.
"Nothing. Just listening to you."
"Oh really? What subject are we doing?"
"Uhh…Biology?" James guessed. Logan sighed and grabbed his books. He picked his bag up and threw his books in.
"Oh come on Logie! I'm sorry! Please stay!"
"No. Obviously no one but yourself matters to you. You're completely self-centred." James's jaw dropped.
"That's not true at all!"
"Yes it is."
"Well maybe you aren't a good teacher. I never get a word of what you're teaching me."
"If you paid a little more attention then you would!"
"Oh so it's my fault you suck?"
"I don't suck!"
"Yes you do. Exactly how you suck at everything else."
"Why would you even say that?" Logan said, hurt flashing in his eyes.
"Because it's true! You're absolutely worthless."
Logan's eyes widened and this time they were filled with hurt.
"Oh. I'll leave now." Logan said, looking down.
"Logan, wait. I didn't mean it." James sighed.
"Yes you did." And with that Logan turned around and left. He walked through the cold Minnesota streets. He wiped his eyes, not wanting to cry in the middle of the sidewalk. It's wasn't like James was the first one to say this. He had heard it enough from his parents. Just the fact it was James who had said it, his best friend, hurt him.
He saw his house and ran inside it, wanting to escape the harsh Minnesota weather. He took his shoes off and ran up to his room. He opened the door muttering to himself.
"Stupid James. First he asks me to tutor him and then calls me worthless. "
"Which is why I need to apologise."
Logan let out a shrill scream and turned around, only to lose his balance. James quickly steadied him.
"How did you get into my room?" Logan once he was firmly planted on both his feet.
"You left the window of your room open." James said
Logan sighed. He should have guessed.
"Look, I didn't mean to say what I said before. I'm sorry."
"Why are you sorry? What you said was true."
"What? How can you even think that?"
"I can't do anything right. No matter how hard I try, I can never make anyone happy." Logan said looking at his feet. He didn't want to look at James, who, he was pretty sure, was mad at him.
James grabbed Logan's hand and pulled him to the bed, where he forced Logan to sit down and took a seat next to him.
"Logie, you know that's not true. You have no idea how proud I am to be your friend. Every time when you get an A+, do you know how happy I feel? Every time you score a goal in hockey, do you know how loud I cheer? And when you make it through a day after being discouraged by your parents, you have no idea how brave you are." James wrapped an arm around Logan's shoulder and him into a hug. "And you don't have to make anyone happy. As long as you are happy it's enough for everyone. I love you so much Logie. And I'm sorry about the way I treated you today. I really appreciate your help."
"I love you too James. I'm sorry for calling you self-centred. You're totally the opposite."
James wrapped his other arm around Logan and they both gave each other a tight hug.
So these are just little moments between them. I'll update this whenever I get an idea…so really rarely. Hope you guys liked this. Requests are welcome.
