A/N: I literally have been waiting to update this story because I typed up so much the last time I updated. I didn't want to show favoritism though so it had to wait. Happy Friday though. ENJOY! :D


"James I swear that's what I saw." Logan said into his phone. He had been on the phone with James since he got home from Kendall's house.

"Okay so you saw a rope in a box." James said.

"Yes."

"And..."

"You didn't see the way he was looking at it. He looked like he was relieved to see it there."

"Logan, I think you are thinking about this way too much. It's just a rope."

"To us it is. What if it's more to him?"

"More like what?"

"Well when I first got there his parents saw my bag. They started questioning me about it and I told them I was gay. Then they thought I was with Kendall. They like glared at him and everything. I had to tell them that me and Kendall were just partners and I was already in a relationship."

"Damn straight."

"James, focus."

"Okay, go on."

"He looked hurt before he ran up stairs. It was weird, like their was a family secret or something."

"Don't tell me-"

"James, I think Kendall's gay."

"Here we go again."

"No, I'm serious this time."

"Okay so what does that have to do with the rope and him acting weird?"

"James, put it all together. I think he's going to kill himself."

"What?"

"Come on it's not that hard to see it. Gay child with disapproving parents. Child stares at rope in a box. He's obviously going to hang himself."

"But if he was going to do it don't you think he would've done it by now instead of prolonging it?"

"That is something to think about."

"See, so he probably isn't going to kill himself. Maybe it's important to him like on spongebob or something."

"James be serious here."

"Logan I am serious. You need to stop being crazy. The kid isn't going to kill himself and you think every guy you meet is gay."

"I wasn't wrong about you."

"That's different. I actually hit on you."

"No you did not. I'm the one that approached you first."

"And then I hit on you."

"Whatever."

"So what are we going to do?"

"Wait. Who are you talking about? Kendall or-"

"No, I'm talking about Carlos. Should we tell him about your premonition?" James said, laughing.

"James that's not funny and no we shouldn't because if everything works out he'll tell Carlos himself."

"Okay, whatever you say."

"Stop acting like that. This could be something good for both of them."

"Why do you always want to help people?"

"Why don't you always want to help people?"

"Because they're life isn't my problem."

"But Carlos needs help."

"Ugh. Fine, if they don't go together and you fail at this don't come crying to me."

"I'll come crying to you and you'll hug me until I'm better." Logan told him, smiling.

"True."


Logan had doubts that this plan was going to work. There was one huge thing that he was sure was going to be an important factor. It was Kendall's parents. They probably weren't going to let him go over someone else's house. Especially since he's going to be with the gay boy they don't like. James said that he didn't want to be apart of it but Logan and Carlos said that he was already apart of it because he was with Logan.

Carlos was cool with everyone and in middle school he shared a secret with Logan and James, who also shared a secret to him. Logan and James secrets were no longer secrets when they got to high school and decided to come out. Their parents were happy for them and said that they always knew they had something special about them. Carlos' secret, on the other hand, was, and still is, a secret. Something that bonded him with James and Logan.

When they first got to high school James and Logan told him that if he still wanted to hang with them and not be under suspition then he would have to be cool with everyone. That's what started Carlos to do sports and take the school to the championships.

After that he would hang out with almost everyone, which included James and Logan. James and Logan's reputation as the cutest couple plus Carlos' likeableness and skills at sports made them a very popular trio. Logan worked this plan out in his head and it seemed perfect. If Kendall's parents didn't have a problem with Kendall going over someone's house then everything should fall into place.

As Logan walked into science class he prepared himself to ask Kendall. The only problem was he didn't see him. He walked up to James and Carlos and said "Have you guys seen Kendall?"

They both shook their head and Logan sighed. Of course this could be another problem for his plan. Logan made his way to his seat and when Kendall walked in he wanted to jump with excitement. This plan was definately going to work. When Kendall got to the table Logan suddenly doubted that the plan would exactly go smoothly. To Logan, Kendall seemed more hurt than ever. When Kendall put his head down on the table James and Carlos turned to Logan, both seeming to ask the same question of "What happened?"

Logan just shrugged his shoulders as he started to think if Kendall had always been like this. His mind seemed to go through all of the times he had seen Kendall around school. He remembered him looking sad most of the time but this sad had to be the worse. When class was over Logan decided to just ask him anyway.

"Kendall, do you think your parents would let you come over James' house because we were thinking that his house is big enough for the four of us to work on our projects and help each other if needed?" Logan asked him. He realized that he never actually rehearsed asking him so he ended up rambling a little.

"I'll have to see if I can and I have to know what day."

"I was thinking maybe during the weekend, maybe Saturday?" Logan suggested.

"Okay." Kendall said, beginning to walk away.

"Wait, here's my number so text me or whatever and tell me what they said." Logan said, handing him a piece of paper with his number on it. When Kendall left James and Carlos were on Logan like a hawk asking him what happened.

"Guys all I did was ask him if he could come over." Logan said.

"Oh." James said.

"But it looked like he was really hurt. If it was me I would've said maybe another time of something." Carlos said. Logan just shrugged his shoulders before him and James left.

Kendall's parents were skeptical at first but when he told them that there were going to be a few other people there they agreed. Kendall was lucky that they didn't get into specifics about the get together. Kendall called Logan and told him that his parents said yes before he went to sleep, making sure he set an alarm so he could wake up on time.

The next day, Saturday, Kendall woke up and got dressed and ready to go over James' house. When Logan called him and told him that they were outside he made his way out. His parents seemed to be watching him. It was fairly hot today so Kendall couldn't wear his sweater like he always did. Instead he decided to put on some cargo shorts and a green shirt.

"I like your shirt." Logan said, who was sitting in the passenger seat of James car.

James had a mustang convertible so he could see them before he actually got to the car. When Kendall got in the car he saw his parents at the door. He put on his seat belt and ignored their looks when they saw that Logan was in the car.

"Hey, Kendall." James said.

"Hello." Kendall said, ignoring the fact that he felt like he was baking in the sun as they drove.

They came to a stop at someone's house and Kendall knew it wasn't James' because he would've pulled into the driveway. They waited for a while before James picked up his phone and called someone. After hanging up a few minutes later, Kendall watched in shock as Carlos left the house. Logan tried to hide his smirk as he saw Kendall look at Carlos like that through the rear view mirror.

When Carlos got into the car he greeted everyone and vise versa before they drove off to James house. Logan would glance at Kendall through the rear view mirror to see him looking at Carlos.

"I swear it's getting hotter and hotter as we drive." Logan said, giving Carlos the signal that they talked about Friday evening after Kendall called to confirm that he was going.

"I know right." Carlos said before he took off his shirt. He had on a tank top underneath but that still didn't stop Kendall from staring and blushing once he realized what he had done. Logan secretly gave Carlos a thumbs up when he saw Kendall's reaction.

When they pulled up to James house he put the top back on his car before they got out. Kendall tried not to stare at Carlos as they walked into the house. He glance once at him and not a second later Logan saw him. He felt proud that his plan was actually working. Not to mention that he was right about Kendall. He just hoped he wasn't right about the other part of his assumption. They walked into James' living room where he had the project things on the table.

"Kendall, I found a topic for our project that I thought you would like." Logan told him.

"What is it about?" Kendall asked him.

"Brain functions and communications." Logan told him and Kendall gave him a confused look.

"I was thinking that we could construct a brain analyzer that could tell everyone how the person feels when shown something like a word. For example, if I had the brain analyzer on and you showed me a picture of puppies, the brain analyzer would show the word love because I love puppies." Logan explained.

"That sounds awesome." Kendall told him.

"It's going to take time but I think we could finish it before the deadline." Logan said.

"While you guys do your brain analyzer thingy me and Carlos decided to go with a classic." James said.

"A volcano." Carlos told them, smiling. Logan went on to tell them how cliche that project was and other things that Kendall wasn't really paying attention to. He was too mesmeried by Carlos' smile. He had never saw a smile so genuine and nice.

"Right Kendall." Logan said, bringing Kendall back to Earth.

"Huh?" Kendall said.

"Tell them that they would fail if they did that project." Logan said. Kendall didn't want to do that. He didn't want to take that smile off of Carlos' face.

"Well, not if they did something that no one would be expecting." Kendall said.

"Like what?" Carlos said. Kendall felt his cheeks heat up a little when Carlos turned his attention to him.

"Well, when people do volcanoes everyone just expects to see bubbles. I know a formula that can make different colors explode from it and run down the sides. The class wouldn't expect it and the teacher would be impressed." Kendall told him

"That's amazing, thanks Kendall." Carlos told him before he hugged him. Kendall froze when Carlos did that. He wasn't expecting that. He also wasn't expecting that he would miss it so much when Carlos pulled away.

"Sorry, Carlos is a hugger." Logan told him.

"It's fine." Kendall said, hoping that he wasn't blushing too much. Maybe this project thing wasn't going to be so bad for Kendall. He just wish Carlos would do more than just hug him.


A/N: I may have hyped up Logan's brains in this one but I couldn't resist his and James little love-dovey chat. Where do you think this will lead to? Kendall needs to work on hiding his feelings better lol. REVIEW PLEASE! :D
