I woke up the next morning to people banging heavily on my door. I slowly walked to the door and opened it. I wasn't surprised to find Jade and Harper standing there. They pushed past me and into my room before I could even speak.

"What the hell happened last night?" Harper yelled as soon as I had closed the door again. I turned towards her, tears filling my eyes as I leaned back against the door. I let myself slump down so I was sitting down and pulled my knees to my chest.

"I don't even know. I'm so confused."

They both came and sat down on the floor in front of me. "Well talk to us. Harper said when they got home last night that Kendall was just sitting on the couch staring at the TV screen and mumbling something about asshole, idiot and Ivy." Jade spoke. I explained everything that happened.

"Oh, Ivy. Do you believe what he said to you? About how he feels?" harper asked.

I shook my head, "I want too, I really do but I just don't know if I can trust him or believe him. He's the one that said I wasn't good enough for Declan. If he thought I wasn't good enough for someone else why the hell would he think I am good enough for him. Damn, he is right. He is too good for me anyways."

"That is not true and you know it. He told you that he said it out of jealousy. He adores you we all can tell." Jade pushed.

"I would love to believe that but right now I just can't."

"ivy, we were best friends all through high school and still are best friends. We've been through hell and back together. Shit that nobody but the two of us know about so I want you to tell me the honest truth. Do you have feelings for Kendall?"

"yes. He's amazing." I told them the complete truth.

"Then what is the problem? Why can't you just give him a chance and see where it goes." Jade sounded almost desperate.

I stood up, wiping the tears from my face. I stepped over them and walked towards my bathroom. I stood in the doorway and turned back to them, "It's for his protection. By the way I have decided that I am moving out." I shut the door before they could even get a word in.

I looked in the mirror and sighed. I didn't realize that I looked so bad. My eyes were all red and puffy, my cheeks were tear stained and my hair was every which way. Decided that what I needed was a nice long hot bath. After the tub was full I took the clothes that I had slept in off and sunk down in the hot water. I don't even know how long I stayed in there but I knew I needed it.

**Kendall's POV**

I am still so confused on what the hell happened last night. I feel like I probably screwed up big time but then again I am not sure what I did wrong. I put everything out there but seeing the hurt in her eyes killed me. I was sitting on the couch when I heard footsteps. I looked and all the hope I had just felt vanished when I saw the looks on Jade and Harper's faces. They came and sat down on either side of me on the couch.

"What did she say?"

They exchanged looks but neither spoke. "Just freaking tell me what she said."

"She's just as confused as you are. She's not in the best mental place right now and she really does like you." Jade spoke, almost like she was walking on eggshells.

"Then why won't she give me a chance?"

Harper sighed, "She wants to but all she would tell us is that it is for your own protection."

"What the hell does that mean?" I leaned back and covered my face with my hands. We sat there in silence for a few minutes,

"Kendall, we have something else to tell you that you probably won't like at all." Jade said, I removed my hands from my face and looked at them.

"Umm….well…Ivy said she is moving out." My head spun. Why?

"The hell she is." I said firmly and stood up and started to move to go upstairs but both girls grabbed a hold of my hands stopping me.

"Kendall, maybe its for the best. Maybe some space and some time will give her some perspective." I just shook my head and pulled my arms from their grasps.

"No, there has got to be more to it than just what is going on between us. She wouldn't just up and decide to move. Something is going on that we don't know about and I am damn well going to find out what it is." They didn't try to stop me this time as I walked up the stairs.

**Ivy's POV**

I was sitting on my bed staring down at the multiple text messages I had gotten from Tyler. I hate that even now he is getting to me. Yes, I should tell Kendall and Harper and everyone about these threats but it'll just be better for everyone if I just leave and separate myself from them except for work. I can handle him threatening me but he is threatening Kendall and Harper. I just can't and won't let them be hurt because he is after me. Somehow the asshole has found out where I live and that I live with Kendall, Logan and Carlos and he has gone bat shit bonkers. He has even sent me pictures from outside my house showing me that he does know where I am.

There was a knock on the door. I sat my phone down on the bed and walked towards the door. When I opened it I was a little surprised to see Kendall standing there.

"Hey." I said weakly.

"Hey, can we talk for a minute?" I nodded and let him in. "What is this shit about you moving out?"

"It's for the best Kendall. It has nothing to do with what is going on with us."

"Then why? I don't want to lose you."

"You won't lose me, I still work for you."

"That's not what I meant! I meant what I said last night. Why are you running away?"

I could once again feel the tears forming, "Like I told Harper and Jade. It's to protect you." I walked into the bathroom closing the door behind me. I stayed there for a few minutes hoping he would leave. I came out and my eyes fell to Kendall sitting on my bed with my phone in his hand. Shit balls. Dammit man. How could I have been so stupid to leave it there.

Kendall's eyes shot to me and there was pure rage in them, "Why didn't you tell me the prick was bothering you? Is this why you want to move out?"

I nodded, "You've already done so much for me. I will not let you get hurt because of me." He engulfed me in a hug and I wrapped my arms tightly around him and cried into his flannel shirt.

After I finally calmed down I pulled away from Kendall but kept my arms around him. I looked up at him, "I just didn't know what to do. I'm sorry, Kendall."

Leaving one arm around me he moved one of his hands to wipe the tears from my face, "You don't have anything to be sorry for. You were scared. I just wish you would have told me. When did this start?"

I pulled away but interlocked our fingers together walking him over to the bed and sitting down. He sat down beside me, I took a deep breath. "About a week after I moved in here, it all started. First it was just stuff that I could let roll off my back but then about two weeks ago the threats against you and Harper started and then last week the pictures of the house came. I just didn't know what to do and I know that moving out is the best option."

"Why is that?"

"If I am gone then he won't come after you and Harper."

"But what about you? What if he finds where ever the hell it is that you are planning to move to and comes after you. You would have no one there to protect you."

I shrugged my shoulders. "At least the people I love will be safe." The words flew from my mouth before I even realized what I was saying. My eyes widened, and Kendall smiled small.

"You love me?"

I blushed, "Of course I do. You're my boss and my friend. Of course I love you." I stated quickly but just by seeing that little glint in his eyes I knew he wasn't falling for it.

Before anything else was said Kendall's lips caught mine and after getting over the initial shock I of course kissed him back. I moved so that I was sitting up on my knees completely facing him. His arms wrapped securely around my waist pulling flush against his chest. My hands were in his hair, holding him too me. This kiss was not like any that I had ever experienced before. There was so much passion and love behind it. I pulled away and rested my forehead against his. His hands came up and took hold of mine, holding them beside our faces. I pecked his lips once more.

"What was that for?" I giggled.

He chuckled, which send shivers through my chest.

"You love me." His voice had a slightly cocky tone and his lips turned in a smirk. I wanted to slap it right off but instead I pushed mine against his once again. Wanting more I slipped my tongue out and ran it over his lips and he immediately let me in. After letting me be in control for a few minutes he took dominance over it. I finally pulled away breathless. "I don't know why I love you but I do, Kendall. I do love you. I am pretty sure from the moment you saved me from Tyler I knew that I loved you." I put everything out there on the line.

So this was probably one of the longest chapter I have written ever. I was originally gonna write more and make two chapters today but I ran out of time so I just fused them together. Hope you like it, if you don't I'm sorry. Oh on another note if I through out some The Wanted references randomly I'm sorry I can't help it I have recently become obsessed with those boys!
