He walked through a door in the house he was now living in. He didn't know why he, his mother and his baby sister moved here. All he knew is that he hated it here. It was too fucking cold. His father just died in a terrible accident. Not more than two months ago.
Kendall was really close to his dad. The spent a lot of time together doing father-son things. But now, with his father's dead, that was all gone too.
He was sitting on his bed in his new room. Nothing here reminded him of his dad. It was very easy to forget him. And that was right what he didn't want to, forget about his dad. It was also very different from where he came from.
He came from a really large town. You only knew the neighbors and friends. But this town was very small. Everyone probably knew each other already. Kendall was sure he wouldn't fit in, and wasn't going to find any friends. He was the new boy, after all. And on top of that, he was gay. Kendall sighed. Why was it so hard? His friends back at home- no, not home, he had to remind himself this was home now- accepted him easily. It wasn't uncommon to see two people of the same gender together. But this was just a small town.
His mother walked into his new room and saw him sitting on his bare bed. She looked around the room to see the still unpacked boxes. She sat down next to him and gave him a hug. "I know it's hard, sweetie, but it'll be better. I have a friend here. She's got a boy your age. Maybe you and him can become friends," she said. He knew she was trying to cheer him up. But it wasn't working too well. He gave her a smile anyway. His mother didn't have to suffer from his unhappy mood. He really didn't want to meet this boy. It was like his mother read his mind. "They're coming over tonight for dinner. Please Kendall, just give it a try!" she said while standing up and walking out of his room.
After his mom left the room he sighed and stood from the bed. He started unpacking his things. When he was almost halfway done, Katie came through his door. "Mom's friend is here, you have to come downstairs," she said. "Oh, and put on something more decent!"
He grinned at his little sister. She smirked back. "Okay, Katie, I'm coming. I'll be there in five minutes," he said.
He put on some clean clothes before he walked down the stairs into the living room. There he saw him. The most beautiful person he had ever seen. The boy turned around and an adorable crooked smile adorned his face. Kendall melted inside. Slowly the boy came walking his way.
"Hey, I'm Logan."
