Give Me Just A Little Time

"Seriously Kendall, I'm not hungry." James said, making me groan in frustration.

"Come on Jay. At least take a few bites? For me?" I asked, trying to imitate Carlos' puppy dog face that he always used to get what he wanted.

"Fine." James grumbled, reluctantly grabbing his plate and fork.

I let out a sigh of relief as he started to eat some of his breakfast.

James had woken up not too long ago and soon as he was up, I tried to get him to eat something. Before she left, Brooke had asked me to make sure that he ate at let some of his breakfast since he hadn't eaten anything since yesterday morning.

I knew that it was probably because of stress from his breakup with Logan that was causing his loss of appetite since the same thing happened to me when my dad passed away years ago.

Anyway, I spent a good ten minutes trying to get him to eat, but thankfully he caved in the end.

I turned back towards the brunette, seeing that he had eaten about half of his breakfast before gently shoving the plate away.

"Happy?" He asked as he walked out of the kitchen and back to the couch.

"Very." I said while walking over to him. "Now, you need to shower and get changed." I said, watching as he looked up at me.

"Why?" He asked suspiciously.

"Because we're going to hang out with Carlos today." I said happily, watching as his expression quickly changed.

"Kendall…" He groaned, but I cut him off.

"No James. I'm not going to let you sit here and mope around. It's summer! You should out having fun!" I exclaimed.

"Yeah? Well it's kinda hard to have fun when you just got your heartbroken." He said bitterly, getting up to leave. I quickly reached out grabbed his wrist to stop him from leaving.

"Jay…" I said softly while looking into his eyes, immediately noticing the unshed tears in them. "I'm sorry that things with you and Logan didn't work out. I really am. But do you think that Logan would want you moping around while you could be out having fun?" I asked, deciding to try a different approach.

"It just… it hurts…" He said while letting a few tears fall from his eyes, my heart clenching at the sight.

"Come here." I said, pulling him into a hug which he immediately accepted. "I know that it hurts. But you can't let this keep you down. I know for a fact that Logan wouldn't want that. Besides… if things are really meant to be with you and Logan, then things will work out for you two." I told him.

Even though the thought of James and Logan getting back together hurt, I knew that there was a chance that it would happen. And if it did, then I would just have to accept it. But right now, it wasn't about my feelings for James, it was about getting him out of this depression.

"T-thanks Kendall." James sniffled as he broke the hug.

"Anytime Jay. So are you up for a day out with Carlos?" I asked, a bit of relief flooding through me as I saw a small smile form on his face.

"Y-yeah. Who knows, m-maybe some of his cheerfulness will rub off on me." He said, making me chuckle a little knowing how cheerful and energetic Carlos could be.

"Maybe. Now go get ready. I'll text him and let him know that we're on for the day." I said giving him an encouraging pat on the shoulder as he walked up the stairs to his room to get ready.

As soon as James was up the stairs, I pulled out my phone, quickly finding Carlos' number before typing and sending him a text.

James said yes! We're on for the day! :D –K

As soon as the text was sent, I heard the doorbell ring. I looked at my phone to check the time, wondering who could be here so early. I cautiously made my way to the door, slowly opening it to reveal none other than Logan.

"L-Logan?" I stammered, clearly caught off guard.

"Kendall?" Logan said, his facial expression clearly saying that he was caught off guard as well.

"No no no." I muttered, quickly pushing Logan back as I stepped outside and closed the door behind me.

"What? What's wrong?" Logan asked urgently.

"You can't be here right now!" I said, glancing back into the house to make sure that James was still upstairs.

"What do you mean I can't be here?!" He asked, clearly feeling a little offended. "And what are you doing here anyway?" He added, looking a little suspicious.

That was when I really looked into his eyes, noticing the love in them that I would always see when he was together with James.

"You still love him…" I said in realization.

"Of course I still love him! Look, can you just let me see him? I really need to talk to him." He said, trying to maneuver past me but I stopped him.

"Logan," I sighed, taking a breath before continuing. "I see that you still love James. I do. And I'm pretty sure he still loves you." I said honestly, watching as Logan's eyes lit up with hope. "But you have to understand that you really hurt him. He's heartbroken right now. He's barely left his room since the breakup and I've finally got him to agree to getting out of the house." I said.

"What are you saying?" Logan asked in a soft voice, although I could still hear the guilt and regret in his voice.

"I'm saying… that maybe you should leave James alone for a while. Just for a few days. I don't want to risk him seeing you and then going back into his depression." I said hesitantly, knowing that Logan probably wouldn't like that. My suspicions were confirmed by the look of hurt and slight anger on his face.

"Please Logan. Just give me a few days to make sure he's okay, then you can see him. I'll even help you get him back if you want." I offered, my heart clenching at the thought of them getting back together. But I knew that if they both still loved each other, then they deserved a chance to work things out.

"Alright. Just… please take care of him Kendall. Make sure he's okay. And keep me posted." Logan said softly with me nodding in agreement.

I was caught off guard when he suddenly pulled me into a hug. I just stood there for a few seconds before returning the hug.

"Thanks for looking after him Kendall. For looking after all three of us when we needed it. You really are a great friend." He said, which didn't help the guilt that I was already feeling.

'You wouldn't be saying that if you knew my true feeling for James.' I thought to myself.

I didn't trust my voice at the moment so I just kept quiet. We stayed like this for a few seconds before he broke the hug.

"I guess I'll get going. I'll text you later." He said before turning to leave.

"Alright. Bye Loges." I said, waiting until he was gone before going back into the house.

As soon as I stepped through the door I felt my phone vibrate, signaling that I had a text. I quickly unlocked my phone, reading the text that I had gotten from Carlos.

Awesome! I'll be over in fifteen! :D –C

"Kendall? Did I hear the doorbell?" I heard James ask from the top of the stairs.

"Yeah, there wasn't anyone there though." I lied. "By the way, Carlos said he'll be here in fifteen minutes." I added.

"Alright. I'll be ready." He said before I heard him go back into his room.

I let out a sigh as I threw myself down onto the couch.

I hope this day goes well…


Done! First off, sorry for any mistake I might have made since I typed this out in a rush. But yeah, a tiny bit of drama this chapter. But trust me, there's more on the way! ;) So Kendall and Logan finally talked! I wanted to put Logan in this chapter since he won't physically be in the next one. Kendall is also trying to be supportive of Logan and James' relationship despite his feelings for James, who is slowly starting to come out of his depression. So what do you all think? Please let me know! Also, I haven't gotten to count all the votes yet, but it looks like Kames is now currently winning! But only by a few votes so it's still close! I think I'll close voting next chapter so be sure to get your last votes in! Next chapter will focus on James' day with Kendall and Carlos! Until next time!
