I laid in my bed, staring up at the ceiling. A grin was plastered on my face, and for all I knew, it was there permanently. Yesterday was the greatest day of my life, and I can admit it to myself, which makes it better. I heard the door open slightly, then shut immediately after. I looked up to see who it was and I saw Logan. I smiled at him and he smiled back. I then found myself sitting up from my previous position and him sitting next to me.

"So," he said, his voice trailing. "How are you?" I smiled at his question and nodded.

"I'm doing good, better than ever." He smiled, knowing what I was talking about. "is everything ok with you?"

"Yeah, everything fine." He said, looking at the floor. "It's just, overwhelming to think that I'm in love with someone as great as you."

I began to blush a deep redish color and looked down at my feet on the wood floor. "I love you too. But theres something else going on, I know it."

"James," he signed, "I can't be with you."

"What?" I screamed, jumping off the bed. "What do you mean 'I can't be with you'?"

"It has nothing to do with you, I promise!" he reassured me, but I was too upset to believe him.

"Then what? Am I not good enough, is that it?"

"No no no! You are perfect, it's my dad. He doesn't believe in homosexuality, and if I tell him that I'm in love with a guy, he might never want to see me again! And I can't lose another parent, James, I just can't." I saw tears begin to fall from his eyes. I can over to him and hugged him tightly, then gently kissed his forehead.

"I understand, and no matter what your dad thinks, you will never lose him. So don't think like that, he loves you very much."

"I can't lose him." He said repeatedly. "I just can't." I lifted his chin up so that his wet eyes met mine. Then I pulled him closer and his kiss lips softly. I pulled away and looked into his eyes again. He smiled and looked down, trying to avoid my eyes.

"If anything were to happen, you still have me. You will never be alone."

We were all out by the pool; the sun was hitting down on the four of us and burning our skins. Carlos was getting antsy, as usual, and Kendall was trying to find Jo. Logan and I sat on one chair and laid back looking up. We both decided to be together, but not tell his dad, yet. Logan did promise that he was going to tell him when the time was right, and I'm fully ok with it.

It was quite peaceful, until a giant shadow emerged on the wall. Logan took one look and flinched. He shot up off my lap with a nervous look on his face.

"Logan, what's wrong?" I asked him.

"No, it can't be!" he began talking to himself.

"Dude, what happened? Who is it?" Kendall asked. Logan ignored him and ran towards the lobby. I got up and gave a confused look to my friends. The signaled me to go after him and help him, which is what I did. I ran to the front desk to Mr. Bitters, who was eating a candy bar.

"Hey, did you see Logan run through here?" I asked him. He looked at me emptily and pointed to the elevator. I thanked him then went over to press the elevator doors open, but a figure caught my eye. I turned around to see Logan's back against the wall, panting like crazy. "Logan, what happened?"

"It's—it's… impossible!" he stuttered.

"Logan!" I grabbed his hands to calm him down. "Who is it? I want to know now!"

He swallowed a big gulp of his saliva and took a big breath. "My dad."
