Hey! So this is a collab between me (a.k.a swagUPwindowsDOWN) and the amazing Lunachu! We've wanted to do this for so long and so we finally did! We've worked really hard on this, so we hope you like it! We also hope to update as quick as we can, but she's got several different projects on at the moment and I've got my story, so I can't garuntee updates every week, but we'll try, you never know!
On another note, check out her stories, they are awesome!
We are really sad that we don't own Big Time Rush, because if we did, it would have LOADS of Logan angst in it!
Hope you enjoy! :)
"We've seen this movie ten thousand times Kendall, why are we watching it...again?" Logan asked as the opening titles for Miracle came onto the television screen. Kendall smiled and pulled the short brunette closer, sighing happily when he was met with no protest. "Because it holds memories, and besides, will we really be watching most of it?" Kendall smirked raising an eyebrow. Logan chuckled and raised one back. "Will we?" he asked already knowing the answer. It was days like these that the two boys cherished the most. Logan's parents were out, James had dragged Carlos to a Cuda sale at the mall and they had the entire day to themselves. This time they had alone was special. There was never enough of it to begin with. Logan's family, they were different. Religion was a very important part of his life, not his choice, but he grew up that way. He prayed before bed, said grace at lunch no matter where he was, drew the holy cross over himself every time he entered and exited his house and never missed church. He had gone to Sunday school since the age of 3 and had even managed to convince his best friend's and their families to join the church. He had memorised the bible cover to cover and could probably say it backwards! He wore a purity ring and Kendall respected his wishes and beliefs.
When Logan was 15, he had come out as gay to his parents. He knew that this could potentially break his family apart, this was a sin. But, surprisingly, his parents didn't mind, as well as the rest of his family. They said that God would stay by his side no matter what; God wanted everyone to be happy and in modern times, this didn't matter. In fact, his cousin also turned out to be gay as well long before he had admitted it and he was glad that they could still remain as close a family as they were before. However, there was one problem. A big problem called Logan's grandparents. They were the most religious relatives of the family and perhaps the most religious people you would ever meet. They followed the bible through and through and went by all the traditional ways of God. This meant that they believed men were made for women, not other people of the same gender. Mr and Mrs. Mitchell didn't have enough fingers and toes between them to count the numerous amounts of times they had mentioned to them about getting Logan to a counsellor or help so that he could become straight again. Of course, they declined indefinitely, not wanting to do such a terrible thing to their son. All the time they got more and more forceful, more and more pushy to do something, but every time, they would leave in a huff.
Kendall was brought out of his reverie as he heard the sweet laugh of his boyfriend. He had come out as gay even before Logan and as time went on, realised he had feelings more than friendship for the younger boy. He had held it in, for 2 months, but finally came unstuck one summer day, when he went to the beach with his friends. He had spontaneously kissed the smaller form and was delighted when after a moment of utter shock, Logan kissed back. There had started their beautiful relationship, already lasting 6 months. Kendall had met Logan's grandparents once before, only very briefly, but it was enough to know that they completely despised him. You only had to take one look at the disgust on their faces to know that he wasn't their most favourite person in the world. But, for now, they were just enjoying being around each other and having the watching their all time favourite move. Well, at least they were meant to be, but as Kendall said, they wouldn't really be watching it at all. Kendall pulled Logan impossibly closer and rested his chin in the spiky, raven locks, somehow remaining incredibly soft even though Logan used hair gel. He leant down and lightly kissed his forehead, bringing Logan's chin up with his finger and kissed the cherry red lips he had grown to crave. Logan returned the kiss and after a moment of sheer passion, settled against the stronger chest once again. Kendall continued placing gentle kisses to Logan's hairline, smelling the unique smell of Logan: vanilla with a little mint.
Logan sighed lightly, cuddling closer up to the taller boy's chest. His eyes were beginning to droop as the movie continued to play, the soft, continuous beat of his boyfriend's heart lulling him into a gentle daze, the familiar pressure on Kendall's lips on his head helping him feel secure and safe in the strong arms. The sounds around Logan began to blur and fade out as his mind gave in to the peaceful darkness. Cuddling up a little to the reassuring warmth of Kendall, he allowed his chocolate coloured eyes to completely close, mind drifting off to the happy land of dream.
The taller blonde sighed as he felt Logan slowly go more and more lifeless in his arms, a small smile gracing his lips. Kendall couldn't help but feel pure happiness surge through his heart that Logan was falling asleep in his arms; it meant he felt safe and secure. It was a well known fact between the four best friends that Logan would never be able to drift off to sleep unless he was completely comfortable, they had discovered that in the early days of their friendship when school had taken them on camp for a weekend, Logan didn't get a minute of sleep the entire three days.
Noticing that the brunette in his arms had finally completely drifted off to sleep, Kendall reached for the remote control, turning the movie's volume down lower so it wouldn't disturb the boy before beginning to gently thread his fingers through Logan's hair, carefully running his fingertips soothingly on Logan's scalp. His lips twisted into a smile, having to bite his tongue to stop himself chuckling as Logan let out a small purr of content in his sleep, he wished this moment could last forever.
Logan had barely been asleep five minutes when there was a sudden commotion outside. Raised voices could be heard outside the window and Kendall had to rub Logan's stomach (another thing that relaxed him) to make him go back to sleep when he stirred slightly. However, Logan shot bolt upright when the front door burst open and in stormed Logan's grandpa followed by his grandma, with his parents trailing behind. Logan's grandma gasped upon what she saw. "I told you this was getting out of hand! Look at them, look!" she cried pointing a long, bony finger at the two on the couch. Mrs. Mitchell protested.
"Mother, please, this is not what is best for Logan, he is happy with Kendall, Kendall looks after him..."
"Looks after him! I'll bet that has a double meaning too! Kendall is nothing but a corruption, Logan needs to be separated from him and taught that this is wrong!" she retorted.
"What's going on?" Logan asked, afraid of what they were saying.
"Logan, by being with Kendall, you are going against God, you are committing the greatest sin known to man and the way you're going you shall end up in hell! You are to come with us and we shall get this little matter of judgement sorted" she explained, reaching for her grandson.
"Little matter of judgement? Grandma I love Kendall, I love him with all my heart. If you think I'm going with you, then you've got another thing coming!" he shouted.
"If he was not with Kendall, he would not be speaking to his elders in this manner!" she addressed he husband. "John, take Logan and bring him to the car" she directed. He grabbed Logan by the arm and forcefully pulled him off the couch, away from Kendall.
Logan cried out in pain as his shoulder cracked slightly under the force in which his grandfather held onto him with, the forceful tugs pulling him towards the front door threatening to pull his arm from its socket, this possibility intensifying when Kendall wrapped his strong arms tightly around Logan's stomach and waist, trying to anchor him to where they stood. Logan willed the tears to stop as soon as he felt the vicious, stinging pricks behind his eyelids and the tingling of his nose, but he couldn't stop the salty drops trailing down his face as his grandparents and boyfriend began to play a twisted version of tug-of-war with his fragile body. Kendall's voice rang through his head, the pained words almost shattering the little control Logan had on his tears.
"You can't take Logan away!" He began, the thickness of his voice showing Kendall was just as close to tears as Logan was. "Please, I'd never do anything to hurt him, I respect his and your religion deeply, and I'd never take it away from him!"
Logan's grandmother glared towards the tall blonde boy who had a vice grip around her grandson's waist. "You have damaged his mind enough, Kendall; his and my dear daughter's judgements are clouded from your actions. John and I now are Logan's guardians, he lives with us now, and we control his actions, there is nothing you nor my daughter can do about it. Now, come along Logan, you now belong to us." With that said by his wife, John gave his grandson a harsh tug, pulling him from Kendall's arms.
Logan's parents and Kendall stared on in complete shock for a moment before snapping back to reality. "What do you mean he belongs to you? He's our son!" Daniel Mitchell shouted at his in-laws. "Not anymore. We told you to sort this out plenty of times, but you never did. We had to take matters into our own hands and sort it out ourselves and the only way to do that was to change Logan's guardians from you to us. He belongs to us" she proclaimed all high and mighty.
"Logan isn't a thing or an object! He's a human being, with feelings and rights. He doesn't want this and you can't make him go wi-" Kendall was interrupted.
"But we can. If Logan were to stay here, we could have you arrested for kidnapping or imprisonment. If you try to get him, it would be abduction or trespassing. You can't win" John sent him another harsh stare.
"Mother, father, please think this through, Logan's our son, our only child, our pride and joy. He's all we've got. Please" she too was now begging, tears pouring from her eyes like a fountain. In fact, there wasn't a dry eye left. Well apart from the emotionless devils. "Logan is to come with us now, he will not need clothes where he's going" Logan's grandma ushered. An audible gulp could be heard.
"Where am I going?" He asked frightened.
"A place far away from the corruption here. Somewhere where you will be taught that this" she gestured around. "Is not right, and they'll do that any way possible." With that, Kendall could only watch as Logan was shoved into the vehicle and they mouthed a quick "Love you", before Logan was driven away, Kendall having no idea when he'd see him again.
So, that's the first chapter! Was it good/bad/awful? We would really like some feedback on this story so that we know if there is any way we could make it more to your liking or to make it better. So, please could we ask you to review, even if it's only a few words, that would let us know that this has been worth it!
Thank you so much!
