I'm dedicating this chapter to one of my best friends Liana. I hope this was worth doing all your school work!

At school on Monday Logan couldn't find Kendall anywhere. He searched all over but had no luck. The bookworm gave up, heading to the bathroom.

"Kendall?!" The smaller boy smiled when he saw the boy. Until he saw the light bruises that trailed up and down his neck. "Ken..." He trailed off as he walked closer to the boy.

"Logan.. I have gotta tell you something really important, Okay? It can't be here. You're the only one that can know. Can we go to your house?" Logan looked at the blonde, he seemed panicked.

"Sure. Right now?"

"Yeah." The blonde nodded.

"I'll drive." The boys headed out of the school, ditching the last couple classes. Getting in Logan's car, Kendall sighed. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah.. I'm just worried about how you'll react."

Logan could feel his heart speed up as he got closer to his house. Why was Kendall worried? What is it he has to tell him? "Kendall, Why were you in the bathroom?" Kendall looked over at the brunette.

"I was buying time. I was thinking of what I was gonna tell you."

"Did you figure it out?" Asked the Bookworm as he pulled into the driveway of his home.

"No." The bad boy said with a straight face. Logan nodded, getting out of the car with the blonde. Kendall followed his former friend into the house and they sat on the couch.

After minutes of silence Logan finally spoke. "I'm worried about you, Kendall. You came to school with bruises all down your neck. You seem even more distant then normal. What is happening?"

"My dad beats me." The bad boy spat out, not thinking. Logan's heart dropped.

"He... beats you?"

"Logan, you can't tell anyone! Please."

"How long? How long has this been going on?" The nerd hated pushing the boy, but he had to know.

"The summer before fifth grade.. He made me stop being friends with you. He only allowed me to leave the house for school. Logan, how could someone beat their own child? He's suppose too love me!" The blonde cried. For the first time in eight years, Logan saw the blonde cry. "It started after my mom died... he blames me for it. He still blames me for it."

"I don't know how someone could hurt their own child, Kendall. But I do know you've gotta tell somebody what is happening. They can save you. You'll be put in a better home." The concerned Nerd said, holding Kendall's hand. "He could kill you."

"He hasn't yet. I'm still alive. What if I tell someone and I have to switch schools? What if I never see you again?" Kendall shook his head. "I won't tell. I'm almost eighteen, then I can move away from him. I can get out and you could come with me."

"Kendall, I can't just run away. I have plans for a future and you deserve a future. Please tell someone. I love you too much, I can't lose you!."

"You love me?"

"More than you know." Logan stated. Kendall smiled and leaned in, grazing the smaller boy's lips.

"I love you too." Kendall said, pushing their lips together. Kendall's first kiss. He never went on a date because he wasn't allowed too. However, Kendall knew that the sparks he felt flaying was indeed a good thing. They pulled a part when the need for air became too strong.

"Wow." Logan giggled.

"Yeah."

"Please tell. For me?"

"Logie, I can't..."

BOOM!
