Chapter 8 Sorry

It had been about four days since Kendall was admitted to the hospital. His ribs were almost completley healed, and the stab wound in his side was coming along nicley. The day after Kendall was brought in Mrs. Knight thought it was a good idea to let Gustavo, and Kelly know what had happened. To say that it was a bit of a rough conversation between Mrs. Knight and Gustavo would be an understament.

Gustavo, and Kelly had come chargining into the hospital room with an officer hot on their feet. Gustavo wanted who ever did this to as he said his "pack" found and brought in for sentencing. Kendall wasn't to thrilled about doing this the day after he was stabed but he knew it would happen sooner or later. The sooner the better I quess Kendall thought to himself, he sighed and looked over to see Logan smiling at him, only to come back with a smie of his own. He knew that as long as Logan was okay with this he could be too.

"Good morning Mr. Knight, Mr. Mitchell it's nice to meet the two of you. I'm officer Simon Calver, i'll be the one in charge of you case" Said the officer extending his hand to Logan and Kendall.

"It's nice to meet you sir" Logan replied. "Please call me Simon, sir is what you call my father." Everyone looked at Simon like he had two heads, he looked around seeing everyone was not impressed by his lame joke. "Yeah, yeah I know dumb joke anyway I'm here to talk to you two about what happened the other day if thats fine with you." Logan and Kendall gave a nod, as Simon asked "if it's not to much of a problem I would like to talk to the boys alone?"

"Why do you need the rest of us to leave" Mrs. Knight asked with a concerned look on her face.

"It's nothing against any of you, but I find in an incedent like this it's easier for the people involved to talk when they don't have many people around them."

"Okay, but if you boys need anything we will be right outside" Mrs. Knight gave them a sweet smile as she Kate, Carlos, James, Kelly, and Gustavo went out into the hall.

As everyone walked out Simon pulled up a chair to sit on the opposite side of Kendall that Logan was on. He knew Kendall was still and pain and he didn't want to be here yet anymore than the the boys did. But for some reason he felt like he was about to have a conversation that he already had. "Okay boys I need you to tell me exactly what happened to you."

He saw the fear in both of their eyes as he listened to them answer his questions and take notes. "Now you say that you meet the attacker the day before, did he do anything to you then to."

"Yeah, we were in the mall and he decided to push me into the fountain, thats how I hurt my ankle, then Kendall came over and punched him in the face." Logan answered the question.

The questions went on for some time and everything the boys told Simon was making his ears ring. "So I got what happened, you two were attacked by two people, one you told was a boy named Matt Schuler, and his friend Devin whom Matt mett in prison is that right?" Logan and Kendall nodded. "Wait there was another person there with them." Kendall looked up at Logan with a confused look.

"It was a girl, she looked to be about our age I think her name was Amanda" Logan looked at Simon, who was writing this down. "But the thing is she didn't do anything to us, she actually tried to stop Matt."

"What do you mean Logan what exactly did she do?"

"After I had stabed Matt with the blade, he came after me and Kendall again but Amanda held his arm and yelled at him to stop. Thats when she looked at us and she was crying like she didn't want any of this to happen." Logan was looking down at his feet untill he felt something grip his hand. He looked down to see Kendall holding on to him and Simon saw this to. The next thing he didn't want to ask but he knew he had to.

"I really don't want to ask this because it's none of my bussines, but this may be a reason this happened. By any chance are you two a couple."

Logan and Kendall looked at each other before Kendall answered "yeah, he's my boyfriend, but why does that matter?"

"I don't know if it does or not yet but about seven weeks ago another couple was attacked almost the same way, and like you two they were a gay couple." They looked at Simon not knowing what exactly he ment by this. Simon let out a sigh and spoke "that case was classified as a hate crime, and this I am begining to think may fall into the same category." He didn't really want them to know about the past incident, but he felt it better if they knew to keep an eye out.

"Anyway it was good to meet you boys, and i'll keep in touch if anything comes up." Simon stood up and gave each of the boys a warm smile and and a handshake. As Simon went to open the door and tell the others they could come back in to his surprise James, and Carlos had fallen to the floor. They looked up there faces giving away the fact that they were trying to hear through the door. "What were you two doing?" Logan was giving them a stern look. "Um... We wern't doing anything we were just leaning against the door when the officer opened it thats all." "Nice try Carlos, you guys were eavesdropping again." Simon looked down and just gave a small chuckle as he walked out.

"So what happened, what did he ask you guys?" Carlos was almost jumping, even though he basicaly heard everything.

"I think you guys already know what happened, and where are Gustavo and Kelly" Kendall asked only seeing his mom, and sister walk in then shut the door. "Griffin called and wanted to know what happened. So they went with the officer and are going to talk to Griffin now. Oh and quick question what exactlty did you mean when you said you were Logan's boyfriend?" James asked looking at his two friends whos faces were becoming flushed.

"Um..." Logan and Kendall were both speechless not knowing what to tell their friends yet. "I knew it , I told you Carlos I told you."James was almost spinning as he said this. "What are you talking about James?"

"Oh come on Logan, both Carlos and I knew you two liked each other." James came closer and put an arm around both of their shoulders. Logan gave James a questioning look "Hell Logan even Carlos could figure it out and thats saying something." "Hey I heard that and I resent it."

"What you guys aren't upset with us for hiding this from you?"

"Why would we be? None of us care who you guys want to be with, and now that means more girls for me." Carlos said giving them a lopsided smile, and practically bouncing off the walls."Besides we've been friends for to long to let something like this break us up, and were happy for you guys."

"What a minute, you two are dating?" Katie was staring at them with an angry stare. Kendall noded his head not knowing what to expect from his little sister. "I'm cool with that, i'm just glad that I don't have to act all nice and prissy the next time I see Kendall's..." "Well what do I call Logan now?"

"How about your big brothers boyfriend" Logan said as he leaned over and gave Kendall a small kiss on the lips. Earning themselfs a big aww from the others in the room.

...

"So how are we felling today ?" asked the doctor

"I'm starting to feel much better, thanks doc."

"Well if all goes well with your last blood test you may be on your way out in a few hours" the doctor said flashing a smile at Kendall before he walked out of the room, alowing Logan, James, and Carlos to come back in. The three of them never really leaving Kendall's side except for school. Gustavo allowed them time off untill Kendall felt better, but Mrs. Knight wouldn't let them miss any school much to the boys dismay. Logan had even tried to sleep at the hospital near Kendall but Mrs. Knight found him and brought him home for the night.

"So what did the doctor say?" Lagan asked

"I should be able to go home today, aslong as the blood test comes back clean, and I hope it does i'm dying to spent some time with you Logie." Kendall's words made Logan's face grow red.

"Hey what are we chopped liver? What you don't want to hang out with us anymore, we could just go if you want us to." Kendall laughed at James poor joke.

"You know I want to spend time with you guys too, just after I spent some alone time with my baby." Kendall grabed Logan around his waist and pulled him on top of the bed over his legs giving him a large smile. By now Kendall was able to move around with little to no pain anymore.

"We can live with that" James said as everyone started laughing now. They were interupted when they heard a knock on the door. "Who could that be the doctor only left a few minutes ago and the others know to come straight in." Another knock came from the door, "James could you see who it is?" Kendall asked James as he walked to the door. When he opened it he just froze at what he saw. It was a girl that looked to be about their age, medium build, and had brunette hair, he also saw she had the remander of a black eye. "Um...Is this Kendall Knight's room?" the girl said in a kind of sheepish voice. James just looked at her almost completely frozen where he stood, only brought back when Kendall spoke "who is it James?"

"Uh yeah, it's some girl" James said as he turned to his side allowing the others to see the girl.

"Amanda, is that you what are you doing here?" Logan asked as he sat himself up on the bed. "Can I come in and talk to you guys?" Amanda asked still with a nervous sound to her voice. "Come in, Carlos get her a chair" she thanked Carlos as she sat down and looked at Logan and Kendall.

"I just came to apologize to you for what Matt did, it shouldn't of happened and i'm sorry I didn't try to stop him sooner." Amanda was starting to cry a little, so James handed her some tissues so she could wipe her eyes. "This should of never happened but it's my fault it did." Logan looked at her, he didn't kinow how this could be her fault. "How is it you fault for what Matt did?"

"You see, Matt found me that day at the mall talking to you guys, which is why I ran form you after getting your autographs. he cought me away from where I was supposed to be waiting for a client of his." She said this covering her face in her hands. James came over and started to rub circles on her back. She looked over at him, wanting to thank him but didn't know what to say. "Amanda what do you mean you were waiting for a client of Matts?" Kendall asked her.

"It's not something I usually like to talk about, but a few years ago my parents kicked me out when they found out I was helping a friend of mine." She saw Logan holding Kendall's hand and almost burst into tears. James started rubbing her back again when Carlos asked " I don't get it they kicked you out for helping a friend."

"You see my friend was gay, and he was having a hard time dealing with it. So I figured I would help him, but my parents found out and they didn't want me around any one who was gay or as they put it impure. They threw me out when they found me helping him, telling me if I help a person to be impure, then so was I. I ended up walking around for a few days with no where to go, thats when I ran into Matt coming out of a store. He looked nice enough at the time, but that completly changed after some time." Logan could hear the fear in her words as he squeezed Kendall's hand harder.

"For about a month everything was fine, he gave me a place to sleep and food. But then he told me I owed him for his hospitality." Everyone could here the acid on her tounge. "Thats when he started to... rent me out to people." "Oh my god thats horrible" James said outloud, he had a look on his face like he need to hit something. "After I thought I made him enough money I though he would let me go, but instead he threatened to kill me if I didn't continue to work for him."

"Did you ever try to go to the police?" Logan asked almost on the verge of tears himself. "I tried at times but Matt always had someone watching me, and if I tried to go to the police they would bring me back, and then yell at me that he gave me a place to live, food to eat, then he would do things like this to me" she said as she gestured a finger to her eye. "Then that day at the mall I meet you, and he found me I tried to run but he cought me. He felt it was your fault that I wasn't were I was supposed to be, I tried to explain to him it was my fault, but he wouldn't listen. Thats why he came after you two, he said he knew who you were and where you lived, and this would be a perfect reason to come see you."

"It wasn't your fault that he came after us Amanda, you see when we were younger we knew Matt back in Minnesota, and we turned if in one day when we found him and some of his friends doing drugs behind the school." Kendall told her trying to calm he down some.

"But why were you with Matt at the park that day?" Kendall asked

"Matt told me he wanted me to see what happens to people who take me away from his clients, thats why I was at the park with him, he wanted me to watch him kill you guys. I'm so sorry for everything guys."

"You have nothing to be sorry for Amanda, you didn't do anything." James tried to reassure her. "He's right Amanda, if it wasn't for you Kendall and I could be dead right now, you saved are lives, so thank you." Logan patted her shoulder, when Amanda looked up she saw Logan smiling at her.

"Thats still noe exuse for what he did, and I also wanted to give you this back."Amanda said as she reached into her purse and pulled out a leather cord with a cross charm on it. "Sorry about the chain, it must have broke" she said as she handed it to Logan. Logan took note of the charm, it was gold with a small emerald in the middle and on the back Forever with You L&K was ingraved. "Thank you Amanda, this was my birthday gift from Kendall."

"I knew it was your's, Matt was going to pawn it off but I wouldn't let him, and sorry for ruining your birthday Logan."

"You didn't ruin anything Matt did" Logan said.

"I'd better get going, if Matt comes back and dosen't see me he'll do worse to me than a black eye." Amanda got up and was about to head for the door when James stoped her. "You can't go back to that asshole, if he does this to you" James was cupping Amanda's chin in his hands and looking into her eyes. "I don't have a choice, I have no where else to go" she said shaking her face away from James.

"Well than stay with us for a while, untill we can help you find a place of your own away from Matt." James said giving her a smile. "I'm sure no one would mind right guys" he said looking at his friends. "Thats a good idea James" Logan said, "not a problem with me, and i'm sure once we explain everything my mom and Katie won't mind either" Kendall gave her a smile, "I may not be able to walk around in my boxers anymore, but thats fine with me" Carlos said laughing at his own joke.

"But why would you guys help me like that, it was partially my fault Matt came after you guys." Amanda gave them a wierd look.

"First off you didn't do anything, and second off think of it as our way of thank you for helping save our friends" James said flashing her one of his million dollar smiles.

"Thank you so much you guys I don't know how I could ever repay you" Amanda was on the verge of tears again.

"I think you already have" James whisperd in her ear motioning for her to turn around. She smiled at the sight of Kendall tying the leather cord around Logan's neck, and Logan turning to give Kendall a kiss.

"Thank you" Amanda said as she turned and placed herself into James as he hugged her back.

I hope you all like Amanda. I figured if she came from a troubled passed it would make it more believable why she helped the guys. Sorry if this wasn't what you were expecting but I felt that things needed to uped a little bit more. So I hope you enjoyed this chapter, and leave any review you want.
