Ch. 4 – I'm Not in Love
After all that happened, Logan went back to his lonely life. He had set up a date with a charming brunette of the soccer team, hoping that everything between them would turn out alright. He just wanted James to break up with Mercedes. Not that he would want the pretty boy for himself, that's absurd. Logan just hoped for a less turbulent relationship.
Right then he felt his cellphone buzzing. He secretly pulled it out of his pocket and opened it under his table for the teacher . There were two unread messages. One from Jett and, surprisingly, from the James Diamond. Kendall must've given his number to him. He decided to read Jett's first for it could be something about their date.
'hey cutie ;) wanna hang out at lunch?'
Logan rolled his eyes, bus still he couldn't deny that the brunette had a naïve charm. He answered it with a smile and a sincere yes. He then opened James', curious of what the captain of the soccer team had to say to him.
'hey logie srry about what happened. Mercedes can be a real bitch sometimes'
The smart boy smiled at the words he just read, for he was convinced James would never apologize. Wait, Logie? Since when they started with the nicknames? He decided to answer that because his feelings seemed real.
'it's ok jamie but i thought i was ur bitch'
Just after he had sent the message, he realized what he had written. He blushed like he never did before.
~BTR~
James was almost sleeping in his literature class when he felt his cellphone buzzing. He opened it and noticed Logan answered his message. The pretty boy smiled and sent a reply without noticing Logan's and his own words.
'yeah srry, ur my only bitch =p'
Both of them ended up ashamed for what they had written to each other and afraid of what the other might think of this. James had never said anything like that to another guy, and Logan was the last person in the entire world that he would say an erotic wordplay.
When the period was finally over, James walked down the hallway and decided to stop by his locker to get the money he owned Kendall for giving Logan's cellphone. Exactly, the blond wouldn't give it for free. Right then he heard a familiar laugh followed by a familiar voice, an annoying familiar voice. When he looked down the hallway, he could see Logan and Jett walking to the cafeteria with their arms interlaced. James slammed his locker shut, angry for one of the guys he despised the most, hanging out with his tutor.
Since James was chosen to be the captain of the soccer team, instead of Jett, the cocky brunette was competitive about absolutely everything when it came to being better in anything James did. People would say he was jealous about Logan, but that would be ridiculous. Jett was a jerk and it was enough to make him mad.
~BTR~
A couple of hours after school, James still had some anger running in his bloodline. He didn't know why he was feeling that way. But still, he was so annoyed with what he saw that took a few seconds for him to notice the doorbell ringing. And when he did so, he knew exactly who it was. When he opened the door, there was Logan with sunglasses lying upon his forelock. James actually thought the smart boy looked good with them, but he also knew Logan would never buy something so cool.
"What's up with these?" The pretty boy asked pointing to the artifact on Logan's head. The tutor looked up and smiled taking them off and putting it inside its case.
"Oh, these… Jett bought me this before inviting me to the pool party in his house." Logan answered and noticed James wasn't so happy. "Jamie, are you ok?"
"Yeah, I'm perfectly fine!" James said moving away from the door and going back to the orange couch. Logan entered the apartment, closing the door behind him and walking up to sit beside the diva. "And stop calling me Jamie, that's childish."
"Me, childish? You're the one who called me Logie!" The smart boy fired back feeling his blood boiling inside his veins. The two boys stood up, knowin what it would take them.
"At least I'm not someone's bitch!" James yelled and now he was able to wake up the beast inside the boy in front of him.
"I would never label myself as your bitch!" Logan's voice has gotten louder. Even James hasn't seen him so mad. It scared him a bit, but it didn't stop him either.
"Admit it, you like the idea of being James Diamond's bitch." The pretty boy's words showed all of his arrogance and the smile in his face made Logan almost turned that fight into something physical.
"Oh, I admit it. I admit that you are the most selfish, self-centered and ridiculous person I've ever known." Logan then noticed it wasn't enough to take that smile from James' face, so he decided to use heavier words. "So ridiculous that you're actually Mercedes' bitch."
"Shut up." James said angry and Logan kept on singing that he was Mercedes bitch. "I told you to shut up!"
"Oh yeah? Make me!" Logan said and then all of a sudden, James grabbed the smart boy's head pulling it closer to his own, and without him expecting their mouths connected in a sweet kiss. Both of them felt their anger slowly deflating as they let their lips slowly dance to an inexistent song. Logan let his bag fall on the floor before moving his arms around James' neck at the same time the pretty boy used his muscled arms to take hold of the shorter boy's waist and pull Logan's body closer to his. James caressed his tutor's back through his shirt while Logan's fingers strolled along the soft and perfectly combed hair of the diva. He had never let anyone touch his hair like this and actually, he didn't care. All that the two boys wanted at that moment was to enjoy it as long as it was possible.
"What a day! I can't believe I'm home." They heard a Mrs. Knight say opening the door and suddenly Logan brutally pushed James, making him land hardly on the couch, before grabbing the bag he had let fall on the floor. "Oh, hi sweetie. You're early. Did you two kill yourselves while I was away?"
"Hi Mrs. Knight. We were just… hum, talking about the coming tests." Logan replied hoping that she didn't see them suffocating each other in that kiss.
"Are you ok honey? You look pale." Mrs. Knight said before coming closer and leaning her hand on Logan's forehead. The boy bit his lower lip as he felt cold sweat coming out of his pores unaware that James was feeling the same. The pretty boy tried to reduce the excitement between his legs. "Must've been something you ate. Maybe you should go home."
"NO!" James yelled before standing up. He felt his face redden in embarrassment for he made it sound like he needed Logan more than wanted him. "I mean, what about my tutor classes?"
"That's up to Logan. But I still say that if he's not feeling well, he should probably go home." Mrs. Knight said before she heard the door being opened.
"Carlos, please! I already said I was sorry. I don't know what I did, but I'm sorry!" Kendall cried out as Carlos avoided speaking with the blond. Then Kendall saw a man carrying a bouquet down the hallway and grabbed it before closing the door and letting the man react at what just happened. He knelt down in front of his Hispanic friend holding the bouquet in front of him. "Please forgive me."
Carlos took the flowers in his hands and started playing with the roses. Kendall smiled at that image and Mrs. Knight frowned at the scene. After all that happened between him and James, Carlos actions were enough to make Logan smile. The Latino was following his advices. Soon Kendall would be his.
"So it means you will talk to me again?" Kendall asked and Carlos took a little while to think about that subject.
"Maybe…" Everybody except Logan, were surprised by the boy's answer. Carlos then secretly winked at the smart boy who winked back.
~BTR~
The tutoring couldn't be more awkward for both James and Logan. They hardly spoke to each other, unless it was extremely necessary. Even with Mrs. Knight disapproving his decision of staying, he convinced her he was good enough to tutor James. Once in a while one of them would stare at the other and look away when the other looked back. The only thing that made them start talking again was when the sound of a thunder exploded in the air, making Logan jump into James' arms and the pretty boy wrapped them around Logan as protection.
"Uh, sorry. It scared me a little bit." Logan said moving away from his shelter and James was sad to feel the loss of the smart boy's body heat.
"It's ok, hum… It scared me too." James replied and then started raining, which soon turned into a storm. Mrs. Knight entered the living room, seeing Logan putting his books back into his bag.
"Honey, you are not leaving until it stops raining." She said and it caught Logan's attention. "And I don't believe it'll be over soon."
"I gotta go home. My mom will be worried." The pretty boy explained while tossing his bag over his shoulder. "See you guys."
"Stop right there!" The woman approached Logan before he could reach the door. She took his bag off his shoulder and placed it above the counter. "You're not going anywhere. I'll call your mom and say you'll stay for the night."
"My baby will sleep here?" Kendall asked coming down the hallway.
"Only if it doesn't stop raining." Mrs. Knight warned and dialed the number of Logan's house. "Hello, Mrs. Mitchell. I'm here with Logan and I'm worried that he'll get sick if he walks alone in the rain, so I'm asking you if there's any problem if he can stay here for the night… Yes, I'm Mrs. Knight… So, you allow it?... Thanks Mrs. Mitchell and don't worry, we'll take care of your son. Bye."
"Mrs. Knight, I'm ok. Really. I can get a cab and everything will be fine. And I don't have any other clothes and…" Logan then felt a finger touch his mouth, signaling for him to stop talking.
"You'll stay and that's that. Carlos will be more than happy to lend you one of his pajamas. You think you can sleep here in the living room?" She said and they all looked to each other's eyes.
"Yes. This couch is very comfortable. I'll be alright here." Logan answered bouncing up and down on that soft fabric.
~BTR~
When the night arrived, James couldn't sleep again. He kept on passing his fingers upon his lips; trying to feel the magic he felt when he kissed Logan. The smart boy's mouth was soft like a rose. But still, it was all so fast. Even denying it, he wanted to feel that again. So, he stood up quickly and walked silently down the hallway until he got in the living room. He looked at the couch where Logan was asleep and felt his heart beat faster. He tiptoed until he was close to the sleeping figure. Not satisfied yet, he knelt down making him stand face to face to his tutor.
Logan had his mouth slightly opened as the air softly whistled while flowing through that small passage. James smiled and then noticed the boy trembling. He grabbed the covers and pulled it up until his neck. Then it was turn for Logan to smile. The boy was still sleeping, but could feel that someone was taking care of him. James carefully kissed Logan's forehead and walked over the refrigerator to get something to help him sleep. He was not in love… It was just a silly phase he was going through. He'd like to see Logan, but then again, it doesn't mean he means that much to James. With those thoughts in mind, the pretty boy's elbow ended up colliding to a glass that rested above the sink, making it fall and break, a loud noise sounding in the quiet room.
"Could you please be more careful? There's someone trying to sleep here." James heard Logan say and when he looked at the boy standing next to him, he couldn't help it but smile at that image. Logan was wearing Carlos' pajamas and combined with the messy hair, it made him look extremely cute.
"Sorry, I guess I woke up the bitch, right?" James told Logan while collecting the pieces of glass on the sink.
"Oh no, no, no. I'm too tired for it." Logan said going back to the couch.
"Too tired or you can't come up with something to say?" The pretty boy teased making Logan stop in his tracks.
"Said the guy who kissed me to make me shut up." Logan crossed his arms above his chest, hoping it was too dark to see the blush on his face.
"Yeah, and the bitch liked it. No one resists a Diamond." James said stepping forward. "You want more, don't you?"
"Why would I want more when you are clearly a bad kisser?!" Logan smiled and James' smile faded.
"I am not a bad kisser!"
"Yes, you are!"
"No, I'm not!"
"Yes, you are!"
"No, I'm not!"
"Yes, you are!"
"No, I'm not!"
"Guys!" They heard Mrs. Knight yell and turn on the lights. Everybody in the apartment was awake by the sound of their voices. "It's 2 in the morning! Why are you fighting?"
"It's James! I can't sleep with all that noise." Logan said and before James could say something in his defense, Mrs. Knight pointed to the hallway and James knew he had to leave. "Thanks Mrs. Knight. Goodnight."
"Goodnight Logan." She said and left the room with Carlos and Kendall.
The smart boy and the diva now had one another in mind. They were not in love. Logan had Jett and James had Mercedes. They just heard the sound of rain on the streets below, wanting that night to end soon.
That's all folks!
