I do not own the characters (they're from CP Coulter's Dalton and Glee) or the song (Fleetwood Mac's "Oh Daddy").
Here you have it:
After a silent debate about whether he should let Julian out of his sights for even a minute, Logan had suggested that Julian go get some things from his room while Derek caught him up to speed. Derek had wanted to call the police, but it was getting dark and Julian had been so adamant last time that Derek had instead decided to clean up the bench and move the dummy. Logan didn't know where he put this, but he also didn't know how long Julian would take and he had more important questions that he guessed Julian wouldn't want to deal with.
"Do you think he's a Dalton student?"
It must have been the first time Derek had considered Julian having a male stalker because his eyebrows raised and his eyes darted back and forth in contemplation. "That would make sense."
"He knew when Julian was leaving. Both times."
"He knew why Julian was leaving."
Logan thought about how he didn't know either of these things.
"So we've decided it's a he, have we?" Julian startled the two boys as he pushed open Logan's door.
"Are you sleeping here tonight?" Derek asked, eyeing Julian's sweat pants and carefully avoiding the question.
Julian hummed an affirmative and hesitated awkwardly before adding, "Hopefully."
He sat down on Logan's bed while the other two boys hovered by the doorway, looking back from each other to Julian. Logan broke the silence. "Go to sleep, Derek. He'll be fine here, and I have your number. And you live a door down."
Obliging, Derek gave a faint smile to Julian and left with a quiet "good bye." Logan followed the closing door and locked it before turning around to his friend.
"I'm gonna change and then I guess we can turn in."
Logan suddenly realized how awkward this was going to be. He had changed in front of Julian before, and hell, they had even shared a bed on vacations. But now Logan was armed with the knowledge that he wanted more than friendship from the boy and he had the sneaking suspicion that he was the "why" Derek had mentioned before. Logan felt like a preteen on his first date.
After grabbing his pajamas, he casually walked into the bathroom to brush his teeth, leaving the door open. He could still hear the boy on his bed if he needed to, but here he was out of sight and could change without an awkward blush creeping onto his face.
When he came out, Julian was laying down on the bed, on the edge toward the bathroom. Julian's eyes followed Logan as he turned on the bedside lamp and turned off the main light. He turned onto his back when Logan walked around the bed and sat down.
"How long does it usually take you to fall asleep?" he asked quietly.
"Impatient ass-"
Logan cut him off before he finished the insult. "It was just a question."
"I don't know, an hour? It depends on the day."
Logan hesitated, wondering if his suggestion would sound as stupid out loud as it did in his head. "I could sing you a lullaby?"
It did. No, it sounded worse. But Julian turned onto his other side, facing Logan's legs. "Okay."
Logan's eyes lit up a bit and he considered what to sing to the boy curled up beside him. As he gently laid his arm on Julian's shoulder, he decided to respond to Julian's earlier song. Logan turned off the bedside light and felt Julian tense up. But as Logan began to sing, Julian's shoulders relaxed.
Oh Daddy,
You know you make me cry,
How can you love me,
I don't understand why.
Julian doesn't recognize the song at first.
Oh Daddy,
If I can make you see,
If there's been a fool around,
It's got to be me.
Logan's voice was nothing like the feminine original, but Julian was pretty sure he'd never heard Logan sound so gentle.
Oh Daddy,
You soothe me with your smile,
You're letting me know,
You're the best thing in my life.
Julian might have been surprised by how successful of a lullaby the song was, but instead he slowly fell asleep.
Oh Daddy,
If I can make you see,
If there's been a fool around,
It's got to be me.
And Julian barely felt it when Logan started to lightly run his hand through his friend's hair.
Why are you right when I'm so wrong,
I'm so weak, but you're so strong,
Everything you do is jut alright.
And I can't walk away from you,
Baby, if I tried.
Logan didn't know when Julian had fallen asleep, but he looked down at the boy that he was almost holding and saw him looking more peaceful than he had in weeks. Carefully, Logan slipped down until he was lying face to face with his friend, leaving his arm around the gently sleeping boy. With one last glimpse, Logan closed his eyes and let himself fall asleep.
Just as Julian had predicted, about two hours later, he woke with small start. He gasped as he noticed how close Logan's lips were to his own. At this gasp, Logan started himself.
"Are you okay?" He asked, probably a little more panicked than the situation called for.
"Logan, why did you sing that song to me?"
Julian spoke faintly and did not stir.
Logan paused and rubbed his eyes. "Because I always feel like I fuck up with you, Jules. And I'm not sure why you keep coming back, but I'm glad you do. Because I fall apart when you're gone."
"That song is supposed to be sarcastic, Logan."
"Well, I was being genuine," Logan muttered.
"You…" Jules turned away very slightly. "I've never heard you call yourself weak before."
"With these drugs I am," Logan snapped, a little too quickly, before quietly adding, "With you I am."
Julian looked back at Logan with a grin. "You think I love you?"
Logan laughed, but then with a deep sigh, became serious. "Julian, I know this is awkward. But you know I don't have a fucking filter. And I get it, you're straight, and we're friends, but I'm in love with you and I don't care how I have to do it, but if I can make you smile like that all the time – fuck – I'll do anything."
"You're in love with Hummel." It wasn't a question.
"Jules, it came crashing down on me today. Kurt Hummel is a poor man's Julian Larson."
"And you're not a poor man." It was almost a question.
"How could I be? You're my best friend. I know I've been kind of shitty about that, but I told you – I'm going to fix that. And don't worry, I'm not going to woo you – "
"All that chasing you usually do and you've already given up on me?"
"Jules, you're straight. And my best friend. I never had anything to lose with the others."
"Lo, I'm bi."
Several things hit Logan all at once. He couldn't remember the last time Julian had used his nickname and it felt like a confession in itself. But more importantly, Julian was bi. Bi. What was stopping him from moving a few inches forward and kissing Julian silly? He had suddenly went from impossible to attainable, but that didn't necessarily mean he wanted Logan too.
But of course he wanted Logan too. Of all the times to mention that you're bi, Logan was sure Julian had waited until now on purpose. And then there was that hint that he had been the reason Julian wanted to leave.
Without hearing Logan's wheels turning, Julian felt the weight of his declaration and tried to fix it with some sort of retort.
"Hey, it doesn-"
But Logan had stopped thinking and brought his head forward just enough for the two pairs of lips to meet. He brought his hands to Julian's face carefully. He wasn't kissing Julian silly, but as Logan's mind found its way back to all of his regrets, he thought that maybe gentle was a better way to start.
It became clear to Logan that Julian disagreed as the brunette pulled the blonde closer to him, deepening the kiss. Logan moaned faintly into the kiss before pulling away.
"Please don't leave," he whispered desperately to the actor whose hands gripped Logan's face.
"I…" Julian's thumb stroked Logan's cheek lightly and gave a small laugh. "I was actually about to ask you the same thing."
