Chapter 14: Seventh Dates
Logan sighed as he walked down the hall to the living room. He couldn't help but think about what Katie had told him the other day. He could not figure out who she was crushing on. He knew he had to be someone at the Palm Woods and someone who was currently dating someone. He had racked his brains trying to figure this whole thing out. He was focusing on Katie because her life was a little less complicated than his right now. Logan had so much going on it was good to focus on someone else right now. Katie was obviously close to the guy so it had to be someone he knew as well.
Logan walked over to the couch and sat down. He was so deep in his thoughts he didn't notice Carlos walk into the room or that he sat down beside him.
"Hey Logan," Carlos said making Logan jump. Logan turned to face Carlos with a hand over his heart.
"Don't do that," Logan said, "you scared me," he said.
"What I wasn't being very quiet," Carlos said laughing, "you were too absorbed in your own little world to notice me," he said.
"Sorry, I was thinking about something," Logan said.
"James and Kendall," Carlos asked.
"No," Logan said shaking his head. "It's just a friend is having a problem," he said.
"Which friend?" Carlos asked.
"Can't say," Logan said, "I promised not to tell anyone," he said.
"Ah I see," Carlos said.
"So what do you think Kendall and James are doing?" Logan asked.
"I thought you weren't thinking about them," Carlos said.
"I wasn't until you said something," Logan said.
"Sorry," Carlos said.
"Great, now I'm going to be thinking about them until they get back," Logan said, "this is all your fault," he said.
"Sorry," Carlos said, "come on let's play some video games," he said. Logan sighed and nodded. Carlos jumped up and started the game station up and handed Logan a controller as he put a racing game in.
James sighed as he and Kendall walked down the street together. They had decided to just go for a walk after the day they had had. The four of them had been late for class and Ms. Collins did not like that. She held them after telling them not to be late again and what not. Then They were late for their session with Gustavo, and he was not happy about that. They got out later then they planned. So, instead of dinner and a movie James and Kendall opted for a walk.
"This is nice," Kendall said. They were in a part of town were not many people were around, but it was still safe to be out.
"Yeah," James said.
"I honestly though Gustavo was about to kill us," Kendall said.
"It didn't help that you were talking back to him," James said laughing.
"I know, but he's so…" Kendall trailed off, "there are no words to describe him," he said.
"I know," James said grabbing Kendall's hand, "he's a jerk and so much more, but with out him we wouldn't be where we are today with our second album so close to being done," he said.
"I know, I know," Kendall said. He didn't let go of James' hand. "It wouldn't kill him to be a little nicer to us though would it," he said.
"I know, but this is Gustavo we're talking about Kendall," James said. Kendall nodded his head and they fell silent. James didn't mind the silence. It was nice.
"Do you think we should start back?" Kendall asked.
"Huh?" James asked.
"We've been walking for an hour and if we turn back now we'll be back in time for dinner," Kendall said. James nodded and Kendall let go of his hand and they turned around and started back for the Palm Woods.
Logan was sitting in his and Kendall's room alone reading a book. There was a knock. Logan looked up and saw Katie standing in the doorway.
"Hey Katie," Logan said, "what's up?" he asked.
"Can I talk to you?" Katie asked as she walked into the room and shutting the door behind her.
"Sure," Logan said setting his book aside. "What's up?" he asked.
"Remember how I told you I liked a guys who's dating someone else," Katie asked as she walked over to Logan bed and sat down. Logan moved so he was sitting next to her.
"Yeah," Logan said, "you can talk to me about anything Katie you know that," he said.
"I know," Katie said, "this is hard for me though," she said. Logan looked at Katie. He knew what she was going through kind of. He was dating Kendall who was also dating James. Logan looked at Katie.
"Can I at least know his name?" Logan asked.
"No, I don't want you to tell him," Katie said.
"It's someone I know then?" Logan asked. Katie nodded.
"I just wanted to know how you deal with it," Katie said.
"I know in a weeks time Kendall has to choose one of us," Logan said.
"Aren't you sacred Kendall won't pick you?" Katie asked.
"Terrified," Logan said, "but I am hoping he will," he said. The truth was he wasn't sure if Kendall was going to pick him. Things with Kendall were different suddenly. Kendall was more hesitant with him. Logan was noticing, at least when they were on dates, Kendall was very hesitant. Logan hoped it was just his imagination, but a part of him knew it wasn't.
"Logan can I ask you something?" Katie asked.
"Sure," Logan said.
"Do you love Kendall?" Katie asked.
Logan opened his mouth to answer, but froze. He had not expected that question. He had an answer to that. He was head over heels in love with the blonde. He didn't know if he could tell that to Katie though.
"Seriously Logan," Katie said.
"Yes," Logan said looking at his hands, "I have been in love with him for sometime now," he said.
"Logan if you want Kendall to pick you I think telling him that will help your chances," Katie said, "I mean I can already tell how in love he is with you," she said.
"Kendall?" Logan asked, "in love with me?" he asked.
"Yeah, we all see it," Katie said looking up at Logan.
"Dinner's ready," Mrs. Knight called.
"Come on," Katie said standing up. Logan nodded and followed Katie out of the room and out to the kitchen where Carlos was already sitting down with his food.
Logan was pacing back and forth in his and Kendall's room. Kendall was down at the pool with Carlos and James. He had no idea where Katie was. She was probably off messing with Bitters. Logan couldn't help but think about what Katie said. Did Kendall love him?
Logan knew they did more than they should have, but they possible only had a month together. They had to move fast. Logan had to get Kendall to fall for him and he was sure it was working, or had been. Suddenly Kendall became a little distant lately. Logan thought about it though. What was Kendall doing. He was hesitant about kisses or anything close to intimate. Was there a reason he suddenly started acting this way?
Logan was too busy pacing to even noticed his bedroom door had opened or noticed that Kendall was standing there. Logan was too absorbed in his own thought to noticed Kendall watching him.
"Something on you mind Logie?" Kendall asked from his spot leaning against the door frame. Logan jumped and looked over at the blonde.
"I didn't hear you come in," Logan said placing a hand over his heart.
"Sorry," Kendall said laughing. He walked into the room and shut the door. "It's just it's Saturday and normally you're all excited about our date night," he said as he walked over to his dresser.
"Sorry," Logan said, "I've got a lot on my mind," he said.
"You seem like you're stressed, maybe a date tonight will help you," Kendall said as he changed from his swim clothes and into a pair of skinny jeans and a t-shirt.
"Yeah," Logan said, "I forgot it was Saturday and I don't have anything planned," Logan admitted.
"Great we'll make it up as we go," Kendall said. He grabbed Logan's hand and led him from the apartment. Logan laughed as Kendall led him through the lobby and outside.
"Where do you wanna go?" Kendall asked.
"I have no idea," Logan said.
"Get in the car and we'll just drive," Kendall said. Logan laughed and got in. He wondered what Kendall had planned, if he had a plan.
They started driving and just talking. Neither of them were paying any mind to the gas tank. They were just laughing and driving. That is until they ran out of gas and they realized they had left the city.
"Kendall why are we slowing down?" Logan asked.
"Uh, Logie, we're out of gas," Kendall said as he pulled off onto a dirt road. They drove a few feet before Kendall stopped the car completely.
"What do you mean we're out of gas?" Logan asked.
"The car has no gas," Kendall said as he unbuckled his seatbelt and turned to face Logan. "I am sorry James said he was going to fill it up today," he said.
"It's ok," Logan said, "we'll just call you mom and she'll come fix this," he said pulling his cell phone out.
"What no are you crazy?" Kendall asked snatching the phone from Logan. "She will kill me," he said.
"Well we can't stay out here forever," Logan said moving to grab his phone from Kendall. Kendall pulled it away from Logan and Logan fell onto him.
"Is there anyone else we can call," Kendall asked while holding the phone out of Logan's reach.
"Carlos," Logan said.
"We have the car and he would tell my mom," Kendall said lowering his arm once Logan backed off. They both sat in silence thinking. Who could they call to help them out. There was no way they could call Mrs. Knight. She would be so mad at them for doing something so irresponsible. Carlos would end up telling her by mistake and besides they already had the car and that ruled James out as well.
"Camille," they said together. Logan snatched his phone from the blonde and called the crazy method actress. He explained their situation to her and she agreed to help them. Logan told her where they were and she said she'd be there in an hour or so. Logan told her not to tell Mrs. Knight or the guys and thanked her and hung up.
"She's on her way," Logan said.
"Great," Kendall said, "how long?" he asked curiously.
"About an hour," Logan said.
"We so owe her big time for this," Kendall said leaning back in his seat. Logan laughed and nodded his head. Kendall was right they owed Camille big time for this. She was giving up an hour or two of her time to help them. They had to repay her somehow.
"What are we going to do for an hour," Logan asked as he looked up at the sky.
"There's not much we can do," Kendall said. They fell silent for a moment. "Logan have you given any thought of what you want to do after graduation?" he asked.
"Yes," Logan said looking up at the night sky. "I still want to be a doctor and I've talked to some schools and online credits will work as long as I eventually get to a real university eventually," he said.
"You wanna leave don't you?" Kendall asked.
"I don't know," Logan answered honestly, "I mean I still want to be a doctor, but I love being in this band," he said.
"Logan if you want to go I won't stop you," Kendall said, "I mean I kind of did force you and Carlos into this," he said. He grabbed Logan's hand and rubbed circles over his knuckles.
"You did not force us you gave us a choice and we came here," Logan said, "and I've considered leaving the band, but I can't leave you guys we have another album coming out and we're famous," he said placing a hand on Kendall's shoulder.
"Logan it's your dream to become a doctor," Kendall said, "and in order to do that you need to go to college," he said.
"I know that Kendall," Logan said, "there are college's here in California," he said laughing slightly. Kendall nodded and turned his head away form Logan. "This isn't about me leaving is it?" Logan asked. He placed a hand on Kendall's thigh. "This is about you wanting to leave too isn't it?" he asked.
"I don't want to leave yet, but I have other dreams, Logan," Kendall said.
"I know we all gave up a lot for James, but somewhere along the line I think this became our dream as well," Logan said, "can you honestly tell me you don't want to become famous too?" he asked.
"I do, and we will," Kendall said, "we kind of already are though," he added.
"I think we are really on our way and like I said if I have to I will take classes online or something," Logan said, "I would be a fool to leave all of this," he said throwing his arms up and pointing to the sky.
"I know," Kendall said. He looked at Logan. He knew didn't know what to do. Logan was throwing his dream away for a new one that would probably only really last a few more years tops. They couldn't be Big Time Rush forever. Kendall knew if they started dating Logan would really have a reason to stay and maybe give up on his dream.
"Can we not talk about this right now?" Logan asked.
"Well what do you wanna talk about?" Kendall asked. Logan shrugged and scooted over on the bench so he was next to Kendall. He leaned over and rested his head on Kendall's shoulder. Logan closed his eyes and just relaxed. He now understood why Kendall was so hesitant lately.
"Did you know Katie has a crush on someone," Logan asked.
"She does?" Kendall asked surprised.
"Yeah, she won't tell me who though," Logan said, "just that it's complicated," he added waving his hand.
"The love lives of everyone in 2J are so complicated," Kendall said, "I now see why my mom never dates," he said laughing. Logan laughed at that and lifted his head to look at Kendall. This was their seventh date and after this they had two more.
"I know what you mean," Logan said, "I never thought I'd be caught up in something like this with you and James," he said. He laid his head back down on Kendall's shoulder.
"I have to admit I was surprise that day when you both asked me out," Kendall said, "I mean I knew James would since I insulted his dating skills like that. I never pegged you to like me though," he said.
"Oh my god you are so blind," Logan said laughing, "I was kind of hitting on you the night before," Logan said.
"You were?" Kendall asked.
"Not in an obvious way but yes," Logan said, "I was just trying to see if you were interested and I would have waited a few more days but James planned on asking you out and I didn't want to miss a chance," he said.
The two fell silent as they let Logan's words sink in. Logan was worried he had said too much. He had never admitted his love to Kendall. He didn't know how the blonde really felt about him. Sure they were dating, but I was official yet. Logan wouldn't know until next week who Kendall chose. He was just afraid Kendall would pick James over him.
"Logie," Kendall said. Logan lifted his head and looked at Kendall. Kendall placed his hand on Logan's chin and brought him close for a kiss. Logan all to willingly kissed back. Logan moved his lips with Kendall's and it just felt right.
Logan knew he had to prove to Kendall he wanted to stay in L.A. if he wanted him to choose him. It made complete sense now as to why Kendall had changed. Logan was going to have to double his efforts if he wanted to win this thing.
Kendall's hands started to wander and Logan's thought process started to leave him. He couldn't think about that right now. He had something more pressing at had to worry about.
