James Maslow sighed, his hazel eyes burned with tears as he gazed down at the engagement ring in his hand. He was flabbergasted at the confession she had told him and he wasn't ready to listen to anymore so she did him a favor and ended their engagement. The brunette bit his lip; he had spent so much money on this ring, her dress, the wedding planner and everything. He paid for everything; working on everything while she was with another man doing God knows what.
I bet you didn't notice...
First time your heart was broken...
James sat on his bed cell phone in hand; he was distraught and he wanted, needed somebody to talk to. Scrolling through the contacts in his phone he stopped on one name that used and still made his heart flutter. The face that made him blush every time he was given a bright smile and an adorable laugh that would make anybody melt into a puddle of goo. Taking a deep breath, he pressed the call button waiting, hoping the other person would pick up.
You called me up and we talked til the morning...
Kendall groaned in his sleep when he heard his phone sing and vibrate on his night stand.
Blonde haired peaked out from under the covers as he snatched the hated device and he looked at the screen. Kendall arched an eyebrow upwards when he saw the name appear; he wondered what he wanted.
"Hello?" The blonde answered. Kendall heard a sigh of relief before a low sob sounded in his ear. He sat up fully in his bed as he held on to the phone.
"James, what's wrong?" Kendall heard some sniffing, then a ragged sigh.
"She left me, Kendall. She broke off our engagement and left."
This was Kendall's turn to be shocked. She left?
"But why?" Was all he could ask.
'' She was playing me the whole time, I spent five years of my life with this girl and she played me. She took all of the crap I bought her, gave me back the ring and then told me that she had been sleeping with some other dude."
James broke down again breaking Kendall's heart. It was very rare that you would hear James cry but when he did it was heart wrenching. Kendall rubbed a hand through his hair as he tried to calm down his best friend.
"Calm down James. There are other girls out there."
"Yeah but Kendall!" Kendall crossed his legs Indian style as he got comfortable. Whenever James was in trouble Kendall would be the first person he would call. The blonde listened as the brunette cried into the phone, cursed with hatred then gave thanks for Kendall listening.
Gazing at the clock, Kendall saw it 4:35 in the morning. He and James had been on the phone for six hours.
"Hey James?" Kendall called. The brunette on the other end sniffed as he said a 'hmm?"
"When're you coming back to LA? You've been gone for three years now bro." James poked his lips out in a pout.
"Can you pick me up from the airport in about five hours?"
And the time that you were stranded...
I was there before you landed...
She was a no show; I made sure you got home...
Kendall stood in the airport gazing out of the windows searching the occupants leaving the plane. James had just texted him saying he was landing and the blonde could not see the brunette anywhere.
Kendall has surprised himself that he was here waiting on the other male, it was nine in the morning and while he has only had maybe four hours of sleep he was ecstatic. It had been three years since James had been in L.A. and he was more than ready to welcome the brunette back with welcoming arms.
"Kendall!" The blonde's dimples showed when he smiled, James came running to him bags in hand, without warning he jumped in his best friend's arms. He snuggled his face in the blonde's neck taking in the husky scent that was naturally Kendall's.
"I missed you so much!" James let out a laugh, Kendall swooned. It had been so long since he had James in his arms like this. The last time was when the brunette was drunk at his engagement party and he snuggled with Kendall on his bed.
He had missed those hazel eyes and bright smile. James was the reason he lived, the reason he breathed and he breathed in that enticing scent that James always wore. Kendall could feel his face heating up when James hung on a little more than he should. He pulled the brunette back at arm's length only to catch the blush on James' cheeks.
"Kendall, I am a newly single man. Let's go have some fun." Kendall laughed.
"First we sleep. I have only had four hours of sleep and I'm tired.'' James pouted but leaned over kissing Kendall's nose making the blonde blush. Handing Kendall his bags, which the blonde took without any protest, they walked out of the airport.
I've been right there (right there)...
For every minute...
This time, it's no different...
Whatever happens you should know...
Kendall lay in his bed with a sigh. He didn't bother changing when they got to his apartment he just fell on the bed with his jeans, shirt, shoes and beanie nestled snug on his head. Getting ready to escape into the land of dreams he heard his door open and someone tip toeing into the room. A smile broke out over Kendall's face as he opened his bottle green eyes only to clash with hazel staring back at him.
Lifting up his left arm, he allowed James to crawl into the bed with him, the brunette snuggled into his friend's shoulder letting out a sigh. Kendall snorted in laughter when James crossed his eyes making faces. The last time they giggled this much is when they were in Big Time Rush.
Soon after the giggles died down, Kendall had drifted to sleep leaving James wide awake staring at his friend. Some people had said that Kendall was unattractive but James knew they were dead wrong. That blonde hair, his face, his voice, that adorable laugh and his best feature those green eyes.
James had always loved Kendall's eyes.
The way they sparkled when he was thinking and they were brighter when he smiled. Kendall was the reason that James loved the color green so much. The brunette sighed as he scooted closer to Kendall, laying his face in the crook of Kendall's neck he thought back the times when they were in Big Time Rush. Logan and Carlos had developed relationships and now Carlos was expecting his first child while Logan was happily married.
James was the next to get married but that back fired in his face. Kendall was the only one to remain single and would date a girl here and there but there was always something off about the blonde. Carlos and Logan would always tell James that Kendall was waiting on someone but they never told him who.
Kendall let out a soft snore making James smile. Kendall would always be there to listen whenever James had a problem, he was always here when the brunette would visit and he was always there when James was lost and needed help.
James knew he would be lost without Kendall; he loved Kendall for his personality and his looks.
Kendall was the perfect package and any girl would be lucky to have him. Jealousy started to boil inside the brunette's chest. He knew for a fact, that as long as he and Kendall remained as close as they were then James would never have to worry about being alone.
Cause you're not alone...
Look over your shoulder...
You don't have to wonder...
Cause you know, you know, you know...
You're not alone...
