Chapter 13
"Logan, someone just sat at table 14, that's all you," Carlos said before walking back out front.
I nodded before putting on a smile and going to take their drink orders.
"Good afternoon, welcome to Kendall's Corner. I'm Logan, and I'll be your waiter. Can I start you all off with something to drink?" I smiled.
It was a family of four. After getting their orders, I went into the back to go get them. We've been back in LA for two weeks now, and I'm not sure what's going on. At time, Carlos has been kind of standoffish, and at other times, he acts like nothing happens, and its been that way since we kissed in the park.
I wish I would've never done that; at least that way, we would have an uninterrupted friendship. I have to talk to him about it, but I haven't found any way to bring it up to him; I don't want to make it worse, but I don't want to keep having all of these weird moments between us. It was starting to make me uncomfortable.
I know Kendall has noticed, but he hasn't said anything. James still thinks that we had sex, and its part of some kind of game. Neither of the three of us have managed to mention it at all to Carlos, so I guess I have to wait this thing out.
After work, I was ready to go to sleep; it had been a long day.
"Hey, do you guys feel like going out?" Kendall asked, keeping his eyes on the road.
"Dude, I'm beat," I said.
"Same," Carlos added.
"Oh come onnnn," Kendall said. "We work too much. We don't have time to have fun anymore. Lets go to a movie."
I guess we didn't have an option so we may as well agree. Kendall drove us to the movie theater. We went inside, and we decided on watching the new horror film, it was pretty much Kendall's heavy suggestion.
"I'm going to grab us some popcorn," Carlos walked to the concession counter.
"What are you trying to pull?" I turned to Kendall.
"Just giving the two of you a push," Kendall winked.
"You actually think this will help?" I asked.
"It can…with the right amount of hintage," he said.
"Is that even a word?"
"Probably not."
Carlos came back with a small popcorn, which was basically a large popcorn, and drinks for the three of us, then we headed into the theater. We sat at the very top row, sitting through the previews.
"I heard this was of the scariest movie of the year," I chuckled.
"I know, it's going to be awesome," Carlos smiled.
When the movie started, my eyes were glued to the screen. It was something about horror films that I loved. They never scared me, despite their purpose; sure I'll jump at sudden things, but never because I was scared, and yes, I know that doesn't make sense. The only movie to make me nervous was the Purge, and that was because of the little siren thing that signaled the start of it.
Anyways, during the movie, I glanced at Kendall and Carlos. Carlos was just as into it as I was, and Kendall looked nervous. He was inching closer and closer to me. I laughed a bit, I don't think Carlos will get any signals if Kendall ends up in my lap before the end of the movie.
The movie ended and it didn't help anything because Carlos and I were too involved to pay attention to each other and by the end, Kendall was literally halfway into my lap, but it was a good movie anyway. We got into the car and Kendall drove to a restaurant.
"Isn't it like midnight?" Carlos asked.
"Yes, but TGI Friday's is still open," he said. "We can go in later; Mike can open the restaurant."
We went inside and got ourselves a boost. Kendall and I got the inside seats. Carlos was about to slide in next to Kendall, but Kendall pushed him away.
"You know I hate sitting with others," he said.
"You hate sitting by yourself, you always force me or James to sit next to you," Carlos pointed out.
"I'm being considerate of Logan…who feels the same way," Kendall said.
"Fine," Carlos gave him a weird look. "I'll sit next to Loges."
He slid in next to me and we started looking at the menu. The dinner was pretty uneventful. We just ate and talked. I still wasn't too positive about the hints that I was supposed to be throwing at Carlos; anything that I thought could pass as a hint, Carlos was completely oblivious to, so there really was no point.
By the time we got home, I was just tired and full. I really just wanted to go to bed. I went upstairs, straight to Carlos bedroom and put my pajamas on. It was only a few seconds before he came in also and got ready for bed.
"Hey, are you alright?" he asked.
"What do you mean?" I looked at him.
"You seem off," he said.
I lifted an eyebrow.
"Me?" I chuckled.
"Yeah. What's bothering you?"
"Well, I think I'm fine, but it may be because you seem to be ignoring me," I said.
"Really?" he looked at the ground. "I didn't think so."
"There it is again," I looked at him. "You aren't responding the way you normally would. Lately you've just been brushing off things that you want to ignore, or things that don't matter that much to you."
"Lets go somewhere tomorrow after work," he changed the subject. "We can have some bro time, just you and I. I don't want us to drift apart."
I was about to retaliate, then I stopped. I gave him a hard look.
"Fine," I said. "Tomorrow, let's hangout."
