"Dammit, they're not home." I cursed as I turned around. I knew I should've brought my copy of the keys with me! I'd call them were it not for my phone breaking down while on the way to my 'secret place'.
Honestly, I'm really left behind. I've missed a lot of things, especially since I stayed in a place completely free of technology for about 2 weeks.
Okay maybe not 100% free of technology, since that's impossible. All I know is that it's completely cut off from the modern world. I wouldn't be completely cut off, but turns out someone forgot to get their phone serviced before going there! Guess who that person is?
Me.
Yep.
I heard footsteps walking from the living room to the door slowly. I tried to judge who it was based on the footsteps alone, but I couldn't.
I mean I was only gone for two weeks, have they replaced me?
Unless they think I'm dead… That letter I left was a tad bit dramatic.
Okay maybe too dramatic!
"L-Logie…?" Carlos' voice whispered, almost as if he's been crying for two weeks. I spun around to see the shorter male with eyes blood-shot red and puffy. Said pair of eyes widened, then he scratched his eyes a few times. "LOGIE!" He yelled oh so loudly, tackling me onto the ground. "YOU'RE ALIVE!" He continued yelling, hugging me tight while pinning me onto the pavement.
"Carlos… He's been d-" James said, his voice extremely broken. That was until he came out.
His reaction was exactly the same as Carlos', so now instead of one buff person squishing me, I have two.
"Get off me!" I pushed them both off forcefully, and to my surprise, it worked! I stood up to see Kendall staring at me all the way from the kitchen, with a confused expression. "Don't I get a 'hello'? A 'welcome back Logie'? Huh, I expected more from my boyfriend." I teased, to no avail. He looked confused and somewhat hurt.
Why would he be hurt?
~Kendall
I couldn't believe my eyes.
There he was, the angel I fell in love with at first sight… The one I abandoned…
He's alive… But how? Everyone says he's dead! Maybe I'm dreaming… Yeah, I'm dreaming, lucidly. "You're not dreaming." I heard Logan's voice whisper, until I felt his familiar lips on mine. I hadn't realized it before, but I missed having his soft lips on mine.
I missed feeling that lightning strike rush through me every time we kissed.
I missed having him…
"Y-You're a-a-alive… b-b-but how…?" I stuttered, feeling like an utter idiot. "Someone needs to catch me up, ASAP." He said with a frown, looking around. "I've to admit, this house is pretty clean." He added before walking towards the couch.
"That's because Mrs. Knight comes in and-" James stated, only to be tackled by Carlos. "We clean it every day!" Carlos cried with joy before jumping next to Logan, laying his head on said boy's lap. James sat on Logan's right-side, side-hugging the doe-eyed angel.
I stood there like a f*cking idiot as my brain processed all this.
After a short moment of silence, I closed the front door and sat down next to James, since Carlos occupied the space to Logan's left. I listened as they explained everything from start to end, not missing a single detail.
Logan began laughing hysterically, "Oh my god, you guys almost held a funeral for me!? Wow. So everyone thinks I'm dead?" He asked for confirmation, looking at me. I nodded slowly, a small smile creeping up upon my face. Before I could ask him where in the seven hells he went, he stated in a somewhat-serious manner, "Huh. That means I could retire from music early and pursue medics."
A grin grew on his face as he looked up, meanwhile all three of our heads turned towards him so fast I'm surprised we didn't get a whiplash!
"Wha-" Carlos asked, only to be interrupted by Logan's laughter. "I'm kidding! I'd rather be dead than to abandon you guys." He stated with a big, dimpled smile.
"I'm not gonna kill myself, okay? Seriously. I love you guys too much, especially Kendall, to kill myself. I know how stupid that is. Plus, you guys would be hopeless without me." He teased, grinning at all three of us. Hearing him say that not only planted extreme relief in me, but also in the hearts of the other two.
This entire month has been an insane roller-coaster for us, an emotional roller-coaster.
~Logan
I can't believe they thought I killed myself! That sounds like one of the dumbest things to do. I've so many things I wanna do before I die, I'd rather not miss out on it. Plus, I promised I'd attend James' and Carlos' wedding. I thought I'd be attending two different weddings, but apparently not.
I've always thought James Garcia had a nice ring to it, or maybe Carlos Diamond.
I also hope that one day… Maybe I'll be able to call myself Logan Knight. Or the other way around…
"I'm staying, alright? I just wanted peace for a while. Y'know how hectic things have been and I thought since our tour is finished, I could have two weeks of silence." I stated as the other two began relaxing on the couch I was on, while Carlos began drifting to sleep on my lap.
~Kendall
I swore I'd change, and I will.
But for now, I'd rather enter a peaceful sleep, knowing Logan would stay.
'I'm staying…' Those two words echoed in my head as I drifted off to sleep, being close to my once-again perfect family…
