A great chapter for all Kendall fans..

*ONE WEEK AND 5 DAYS LATER*
Jo was able to come out of the hospital today. Things were still weird between us...well, between her. I was doing all I could to reach out to her, but she was pushing me away.
...Bitch...
Kendall was all excited. He had something romantic planned for them, to show her that she wasn't alone in her grieving and that he still cared about her...or something like that.
"C'mon, Kendall, you HAVE to tell me!" I moaned. I was in 2J, following Kendall around, bugging him into telling me what he and Jo were gonna do after she got out of the hospital.
"Jo will tell you all about it afterward, I'm sure," he replied.
"Are you guys gonna do it?" I guessed, excitedly.
"No! We are NOT gonna "do it". Now go away!"
"No! Tell me, PLEASE! I hate secrets! And surprises!" I moaned.
"It's true," Carlos said, coming up from behind me. "She does."
I looked at Kendall and nodded. Kendall rolled his eyes at me.
"Whatever. I'm still not going to tell you."
"UGH!" I groaned, and Carlos laughed at me. Grrr...
THAT NIGHT
*Jo's POV*
I knocked on the door to apartment 2J. This was Kendall's apartment, and he told me to meet him here tonight.
"Come in! It's open." he called and I did so. The apartment was all dark except for candles lighted in various places around the room.
"Kendall? What's going on?" I asked. One of the candles was picked up, and Kendall walked over to, his face covered with a orange-white glow from the candle. He held out his hand, and music started playing. It was "All or Nothing" by Theory of a Deadman. It was our song.
"Kendall? What are you doing?" I asked, as I took his hand, and he set the candle on the counter, and we started to dance.
"I just wanted to let you know that you're not alone in this. I'll always be there. I care about you." I smiled, and nodded.
"Thanks, Kendall. It's nice to know that..." I took a breath and explained what he had been waiting to hear for 2 weeks. "I tried to kill myself because..well, I don't really know. I wasn't thinking clearly. I wasn't really thinking at all...I was just so sad...I thought my mom's death was my fault, and I didn't ask for help and..."
I hadn't realized I was crying until Kendall wiped away my tears with his palm.
"It's okay...I'm here...always."
