Just want to say thanks for all of you who have wrote any of the reviews for this story. And if there is any way to pass this story around that would be greatly appreciated. I just hope there are people who have been reading this story, but if it's just a few that still means I have an audience so i'm still happy. Any way enough with the ranting here is chapter 4. Also the portion written in italics is a phone conversation, so this way I wouldn't need quots.
Chapter 4: Thunder & Lightning
"O.k. it dosen't look like there is any fracture, or a break but i'm going to get some x-rays to be on the safe side." Logan looked at the doctor knowing exactly what he was going to say, i'll need x-rays, there is no break, but keep the weight of the foot for a few hours. As the doctor left the room Logan just rolled his eyes trying to get this over with. The only company he had with him was Kendall, not that he was complaining, but he could think of some other places he would rather be with Kendall now instead of a hospital. Kendall still had a stern look on his face, and Logan knew he was blaming himself for what had happened. "Kendall will you stop worrying about this it wasn't your fault and I don't blame you. In fact I should be thanking you, if you weren't there it might have been worse than what it was" Kendall knew Logan was trying to help be he just couldn't get over what happened, his best friend got hurt, and he couldn't stop it. "I know, thanks Logie" Kendall said placing a sincere smile on his face. Their conversation was broken by a knock on the door, "come in."
"Hi, Logan i'm here to take you for your x-rays" Logan just nodded and smiled at the nurse. "While you get that done I think i'll call home and thet them know what happened, so we don't get pelted with questions later when we get home" Kendall said before Logan was out the door. Kendall watched as the nurse wheeled Logan down the opposite hall. With a sigh he grabbed his phone from his pocket and called his mom. She picked up on the first ring, must be mothers intuition he laughed to himself.
Hello
Hey mom it's just me
Is there something wrong sweetie
Um well, I just figured I let you know that Logan and I are at the hospital
WHY! Kendall tell me what happened, are you two all right
Kendall could hear talking in the backround and he recognized James' and Carlos' voices, he was glad they were there so his mom could explain it to them.
Mom relax it's nothing major Logan just hurt his ankle, but the doctors don't think anything is broken
The nurse had brought Logan back to the room and he noticed Kendall wasn't there. He figured Kendall must still be on the phone. After a few minutes the door opened and the doctor walked in "so Logan it's nothing big just a slight sprain, i'm just going to wrap it and you can get out off here". As the doctor was wrapping his ankle Logan noticed Kendall's notebook on the chair he had been sitting on. He must have brought it thinking it was going to take longer, and this would be a good way for him to relax. "O.k all done when your friend comes back in you guys can get going" the doctor said tapping Logans shoulder. As the doctor left Logan knew he had to check the notebook just to see. He hobbled over to the chair and picked up the book and sat down. When he opened Kendall's notes he saw some of the pages have been torn out, and on the first page there were some scratched out lines. The only line Logan could read began as The burning embers of my hearts true desire burns stronger when you are near. Never doused and never feared just hidden for you to find. Logan noticed that the handwritting in Kendall's notes looked familiar to him, it looked the same as the poems he had recieved before. At that moment he heard Kendall on the other side if the door still talking on his phone.
Crap Logan thought to himself, this was the first time he had ever disrespected someones privacy, and worst of all it was Kendall's. He sat up feeling the pain in his ankle but not caring placed the notebook back on the chair and stumbled over to the patients seat. Making it just in time for Kendall to walk back in. "So what did the doctor say?" Kendall asked smiling "it's nothing bad just a slight sprain". "Well thats good, what do you say we get going everyone is going to want to know what happened, and I want to get you home before it starts to rain. It looks like it wants to pour out." Kendall told Logan. Logan just couldn't get over how much Kendall actually cared for him.
When they got back to the Palm Woods, they were about to get in the elevator when they heard their names being called from behind them. They both turned and saw Jo coming over to them "oh my what happened to you Logan" Logan noticed the sence of worry on her face to. "It's nothing I just sprained my ankle i'll be fine" Logan told her "thats good to hear" Jo said giving a sigh of relief herself. "Oh and Kendall" Jo said out loud and then leaned over to whisper something in Kendall's ear. "Thanks Jo" Kendall replied, "well I got to get the the stage i'll see you guys later, and feel better Logan" Jo said giving them both a kiss on the cheek as she waved them off. "What was that about" Logan asked looking up at Kendall "nothing she just need to tell me something". They step in the elevator and started up to apartment 2J, when the doors opened Logan felt Kendall's hand on his shoulder and looked up. "You ready for an interigation" Logan knew what Kendall meant but still didn't want to tell miss Knight what had happened.
As they walked through the door Logan felt three sets of hands on him almost pushing him back out the door. It was a good thing Kendall was there to catch him "why not let Logan sit down then we will explain" Kendall said helping Logan to the couch. Miss Knight spoke next, "so what happened" they both went on to explain the days events, but both of them leaving out the part about the insulting words. "You knocked him out with one punch, nice" Carlos said when hearing that Kendall had punced out the punk. "Alright, alright now that everything is settled what do you say we all sit down to a nice dinner" Miss Knight got up and started setting the table. As they were begining to dig in the heard a giant boom sound and saw a flash of light across the windows. "Looks like you two got home just in time, it looks bad out there" James was looking out the window to see the wind blowing and the rain really starting to come down. "Oh yeah Logan I almost forgot when Katie and I got home today I found this by the door" Miss Knight was reaching over the counter and handed a folded piece of paper to Logan. Logan just smiled as he unfolded the paper and read it out loud. The burning embers of my hearts true desire burns stronger when you are near. Never doused and never feared just hidden for you to find. Always known of my true love, but afraid to be known by. Always seen and always with never saying never feeling only to want to hold your hand. To feel true love between us two Logan, my Logan. "Thats so sweet Logan, it's good to see that chivalry isn't dead" Miss Knights words only made Logan blush. Logan looked over to see everyones faces, he noticed James and Carlos still stuffing their faces, Katie had a small smile on her face and Miss Knight, well after hearing the poem she was off in her own fantasy land now. But when Logan turned to Kendall he noticed he was a deep shade of red, Logan smiled at him and turned his head back to read again.
"Wait a minute this first line looks fam..." Logans sentence was cut short by the loud sound of thunder and a bright streak of lightning. The next thing they knew they were sitting in the dark, "great the powers out" James power outage must have brought Miss Knight out of her fantasy, as she said "well it's getting late anyway, why don't we just get to bed and then clean up in the morning when we can actually see something". "Good idea" everyone agreed and began to their rooms except for Logan who was begining to shake. "Logan whats wrong?" Kendall asked rubbing circles against Logan's back. Another bolt of lightnig struck and Logan jump, Kendall laughed a little. "It's not funny you know I hate thunder and lightning" being the only two left in the kitchen none of the others heard them. Kendall just smiled and helped Logan over to the couch. "What do you say we spend the night out here, and i'll keep you company till you fall asleep" Kendall asked as he laid himslef down on the couch and then helped Logan, so Logan was laying in front of Kendall but with his head on Kendall's chest. "You know this kind of reminds me of the times we all had a sleep over at my house when we were younger" Logan could barely hear Kendall as he listened to the sound of his heartbeat but knew what he was saying. "Do you remember the first time you tried to sleep over?" Kendall asked as he was rubbing his hand over Logan's shoulder. "Yeah I remember, the first time I got so homesick I asked you to walk me home even though I only lived next door" Logan blushed as remembered that night.
"And do you remember the first time you actually spent the whole night?" Logan looked up into Kendall's eyes as he asked him. Logan melted into Kendall's eyes and remembered that night as if Kendall's eyes were telling him what happened. "I do, that was the night after you helped me at the park" Kendall smiled at Logan as he continued. "We all were at the park playing when that idiot Matt Schuler desided he wanted to bully me again. He grabbed me and started throwing me around on the ground, Carlos and James were to afraid to do anything. But" Logan just realised that even back then Kendall would come to his rescue. "You, you came up like a mad man in front of him and kicked him square in the crotch" both boys smiled at this memory. "Then that next night when we were at your place I stated to get homesick again, but you just sat down next to me and put your arm around my waist. You said everything would be fine and I belived you, you even stayed by my side that night so I wouldn't get lonely. And I remember right before I fell asleep you whispered in my ear." Another bolt of lightnig flashed and lit up the room for a split seconed. In that split seconed Logan noticed Kendall looked as if he was staring straight through him to his heart.
Kendall reached foward grabbing the sides of Logan's face and brought their lips together. Kendall pulled back and placed his forhed against Logans "and I whispered in you ear Logan, my Logan".
I know I should have waited for another chapter for this ending, but I have an idea for another story. And I don't want to get them mixed up so you end up reading two stories at once. So anyway I hope you like the story so far and please leave any review you like. Remember that any review will help, but please dont hold me to high on the grammer marks.
