Summary: Kendall had a secret; a secret that he hid from everyone. He was special. A sort of special he hated. His mom said it was a gift. He saw it as a curse. It just sucked. He couldn't change it. It was part of who he was.
AN: I am so sorry for not updating this until now! I apologize. I'm doing summer school right now to basically play catch up from switching my major at college and it's had me pretty busy. :/ The next update will be up soon! Love you all xoxo
He yawned waking up, trying to stretch his arms out – only to find that he couldn't. It was like there were arms wrapped around him. Kendall blinked once, twice, and another time taking in the situation. How did he end up like this? He didn't know what to do. His best friend was sleeping so peacefully, and he couldn't mess that up. He looked outside to see that it was still dark. He slowly shut his eyes again and fell back to sleep.
The next time he awoke, he was alone on the couch; yet, he was still cozy. He opened his eyes to see that there was a blanket thrown across him. He smiled knowingly; it had to been Logan. He got to stretch that time; nothing was stopping him.
"You seem happy for someone who just yesterday had their heart ripped out."
He jumped a little hearing the voice come out of nowhere. He looked around to finally see that it was James. He noticed that the other was just staring at him. "James. What are you doing?"
"Logan had to go somewhere, so he told me to comfort you when you woke up. But you don't look like you need comforting. You seem happy."
He frowned, "James I'm not. I liked Jo-"
James interrupted him, rolling his eyes at the same time, "Okay, maybe you liked her, but I don't think you really LIKED her because if you did, you'd be really upset right now."
"James you…"
James just shook his head at his friend, "I saw you and Logan asleep together."
"You did?" He closed his eyes and thought about how it felt having Logan's arms wrapped around him.
"Yeah, and you were really smiling in your sleep then. You looked so happy – the happiest I've ever seen you, Kendall. It was like you had the world in your hands or rather wrapped around you..."
He opened his eyes and sighed. "James."
"Quiet a second, I'm trying to get to my point."
He crossed his arms. "Ok"
"So you've been through a few bad relationships-"
Kendall hit his hand hard on the table, interrupting speaking, "A FEW? James I AM CURSED!"
"Okay, more than a few. Hey stop sounding so dramatic-"
"Says the drama queen-"
"I swear you're never going to let me finish what I'm trying to explain here!"
"Sorry, sorry, go ahead, James"
"You say you're cursed, but I don't think you are."
"You have no idea."
"I have no idea?"
It was a moment before he lost it. He needed to tell someone and well, James was going to be that person. "James, no one is ever going to love me."
"Now Kendall I know it sucks that – "
"No you don't understand.."
"Okay what don't I understand?"
"James. I'm Special."
James laughed. "You sure are."
"I'm being serious. All my life I've never had a lasting relationship. Don't even bring up the Kendall-can't-kiss-joke right now…I know you're thinking it. I am not a bad kisser! Anyways at a young age, my mom told me to never fall hard. She told me that one kiss could change a life."
James licked his lips, agreeing. "If a kiss has emotion, then, yeah."
"That's not exactly what I mean. James, I'm cursed in love. I will never have someone love me because once I kiss someone – the next person they kiss is…. their soul mate."
"Yeah, alright and I'm the tooth fairy...I sneak into houses and I trade money for children's teeth."
He put his hands up in the air dramatically. "James, Damn it! I'm being serious here...think about what I'm saying for a second."
James got quiet and he did just that. And the more he thought about all Kendall's past relationships, he realized that every single one of Kendall's past girlfriends/boyfriends were all still with the first person they dated after. He'd call it a coincidence but it couldn't happen that much. That was impossible. "You are cursed."
"Thanks James, you have made me feel so much better."
"But Logan makes you smile…."
"Yes but damn it James, I'm trying not to fall for him. You don't understand how much it would hurt me. He would be like everyone else. One kiss and he would be telling me goodbye. It would kill me. I can't fall for him. I can't allow myself to do that."
