Chapter 2. Yay.
I'm glad people like this so far.
andallthatgoodstuff beta'd this for me. :)
Kendall was surprised that he actually liked working with his dad. Learning all these new things, and getting to sit in at meetings.
The only thing Kendall hated was that stupid 'intern' Logan Mitchel.
Logan had nothing but snarky comments, but then again, neither did Kendall.
"God don't you own something else besides polo's or plaid?" Logan asked one day as Kendall passed him.
"Don't you own anything besides tattered jeans and band shirts?" Kendall shot back.
"You know what Knight? I'm not a rich brat. I don't own nice things." Logan stated and turned to walk away.
Kendall rolled his eyes and looked down at his attire. A simple white button-up, a red, white, and navy striped tie, a gray sweater and black dress pants. Nothing special here. Well besides the fact that his single outfit cost over 300 dollars.
Kendall didn't care though. He deserved nice clothes.
The blonde looked up and noticed Logan staring.
"What?" Kendall asked, slightly irritated.
Logan just shook his head and walked away.
Kendall rolled his eyes. He was sick of Logan's rude comments. Maybe if he had been nice, Kendall would've gotten him a few outfits. Kendall let out a snort. Yeah right.
He grabbed a pile of papers from the printer and went to take them to his father.
"Careful Knight, don't get a paper cut." Logan stated as he walked past.
Kendall rolled his eyes and set the papers on his desk, before walking back to find his father.
"Kendall, there you are! I have a thing for you to do." Kyle walked up to his son.
"Hmm?"
"I need you to work on this power point for the meeting next week. Put the items you like vs the ones you don't or something. Okay?" He asked, handing over a flash drive.
"Sure." Kendall stated, not very enthusiastically.
"Oh and you have to work on it with Logan." Kyle added and quickly turned away to leave.
"What?! No way. There is no way I'm working with someone like him." Kendall practically shouted.
"You can, and you will." Kyle called back as he walked back to his office.
"Ready to work with me?" Logan asked, a smirk on his face. "And I expect you to actually work on it. I'm not letting a spoiled brat take all the credit."
"Shut up." Kendall huffed, grabbing his laptop and heading to the elevator. "Well are you coming?"
Logan sighed and followed Kendall to an empty board room.
The two sat in front of Kendall's laptop, bookmarking sites and outfits from the store along with other things.
"God." Logan huffed and leaned back in his chair. "A hundred dollars for a plaid shirt. That's fucking ridiculous."
"Yeah for you maybe." Kendall rolled his eyes for probably the millionth time and looked over at the brunette.
"Why wear a stupid tie? Do you actually wear that to school too?" Logan asked, glancing at the blonde's neck.
"Well yeah. I have to dress nice. Prep school has standards."
"Tie's are stupid." Logan mumbled. "Makes you look either stuck up, a nerd, or like you're going to church."
"I'm none of those." Kendall stated, keeping his eyes locked on the power point.
"Well you're a rich brat, so stuck up is included in that title." Logan added, standing and walking over to the water cooler in the corner. "So Knight, you finished with the power point yet?"
"No. You could help you know." Kendall suggested.
"Nah. You're clearly an expert on clothes. You can handle it. Can't you, boss' kid?"
Kendall sat up. "Excuse me?" The blonde turned to Logan, eyes glaring.
"Well everyone is talking. About the only reason a kid is working here in such a high up position is because of his daddy." Logan shrugged.
Kendall's eyes stung with anger as he stood, slamming his chair back against the wall.
"Finish this. I'm done working with you." He spat and walked out, leaving Logan to stare after.
Kendall huffed and walked quickly to the elevator. He was going to talk to his father about Logan. He was done working with this guy.
It dinged and Kendall went to step inside, when he was shoved to the ground.
"Excuse you!" Kendall shouted to the two older me, not older than 25.
"You better watch yourself you stupid brat." One stated, grabbing Kendall's tie and yanking him up.
Kendall held his gaze with the man. Both with burning glares.
"What? You gonna go tell daddy as soon as we let you go?" The other asked.
Kendall's eyes flickered over to the other man. He instantly regretted it when the man, who still held Kendall in his grip, punched him in the gut and threw him to the ground.
"You're just the boss' son. There's no way I'm going to ever take orders from a spoiled rich brat who got in good because of his daddy." The first man stated and the two walked away.
Kendall waited for the two to round the corner before climbing to his feet and hitting the button. He groaned at the slow elevator speed and just ran to the stairs, jogging down a few flights before flopping down on the stairs and holding his head in his hands.
"You okay Knight?"
Kendall looked up and was met with a pair of dark brown eyes.
He looked away and wiped his cheeks.
"You can't let them get to you. You know that right?" Logan stated, staring down at Kendall. "I saw what they did."
"So what? You gonna hit me to and then gloat to all the others? I know they all hate me." Kendall mumbled, wrapping an arm around his still aching stomach.
"No. I'm gonna take you down to a local place I know." Logan stated.
"W-What?" Kendall looked up, trying to read Logan's expression through his long bangs.
"I'm taking you to lunch. Now fucking stand up." Logan commanded.
Kendall stood and rose an eyebrow. "Why are you being nice to me? You hate me."
"I don't hate you. I just think you're a spoiled brat… who deserves at least one person on their side." Logan told him, before walking down the rest of the stairs and to the door. "Coming?"
"Y-Yeah." Kendall nodded, following Logan to the elevators and riding them down to the lobby.
After lunch was over, Kendall still wasn't sure why Logan was being nice.
"I still think you're a rich brat." Logan muttered as they walked back.
"And I still think you're a rude guy with no class." Kendall stated back.
Kendall could've sworn he saw a slight smile, but then he shook his head.
"Kendall is that power point finished?" Kyle asked once Kendall was in his office.
"Almost. I just went to go grab a bite to eat." Kendall told him.
"Your mother is making dinner! Why'd you do that?!" Kyle asked.
"I just did. Sorry." Kendall huffed.
"Well since you don't need to eat, how about you stay late and finish the project."
"What?!" Kendall shouted out. "That's not fair!"
"Text when you are done." Kyle stated, packing his things and walking out the door.
Kendall's jaw was practically on the ground as he watched his father just leave.
"This is total bullshit." Kendall huffed and walked back to the room where his laptop was still sitting.
"You staying late too?"
Kendall looked up to see Logan typing away at the power point.
"Y-You're still here?" Kendall asked.
"Well yeah. I thought you told me I have to finish it." Logan smirked.
"Shut up. I'll help." Kendall sighed and took the seat next to Logan.
The two finished the power point with minimal bickering.
"Thanks for helping." Logan told him as Kendall saved the power point and packed up his computer.
Kendall just blinked.
"What?"
"That's the first time you've said a nice thing to me." Kendall mumbled.
"Well don't expect any more." Logan huffed then gave a small smile.
