Chapter 3 - Pool

"Kendall hurry up!" the blonde heard Logan yell from the living room. Kendall rolled his eyes but smiled, he loved how Logan would always wait for him before they went anywhere. So far his plan was going well. Since their movie night, he'd kept getting closer to Logan in many ways. He'd always make sure to be sitting next to him, his arm around his shoulders or even a hand on his knee sometimes. They'd also been talking a lot more lately. Kendall and Logan talked the most anyway, they'd always been the closest out of the four. But Kendall had noticed how Logan would always chose him over James or Carlos if he needed to talk or advice. That made Kendall happier than anything, to know Logan knew he could rely on him and trust him.

Anyway, the four boys planned to spend a whole day at the Palmwoods pool. Gustavo had given 'the dogs' a couple of days off from recording, and the first thing they all wanted to do was spend time at the pool. they hadn't been in a while and it was the perfect place to relax. And for Kendall to see Logan half naked when they were swimming.

He moved to the bathroom, grabbing a towel and threw it around his neck. he went back into the bedroom and was about to leave when he spotted something. He walked over to Logan's bedside table and grabbed the smart boys book off it. He knew Logan loved to read while sitting by the pool.

Kendall threw the book in his bag and grabbed everything. He trotted out of the room to see Logan waiting by the door for him.

"Ready?" he asked.

Logan glared at the blonde. "I've been ready for 10 minutes! I want to go swim, now get your ass out that door!" Logan pointed to the door.

Kendall suppressed a laugh and quickly did as the brunette said. He all but ran to the door, ruffling Logan's hair as he passed him.

He heard Logan mumble something about 'why he bothers waiting' as he closed the door.

He turned to the smaller teen and threw an arm around his shoulder. "Cause' you love me" he said in his usual cocky tone.

Logan rolled his eyes but leaned into the touch. "Sure Kendall, that's why"

Kendall's stomach flipped and he didn't hold back the smile. "You know you love me"

"Whatever you say Kendall"

At the pool..

"Hey guys" Kendall said as he and Logan reached James and Carlos at the pool.

"Finally! What took you so long?" Carlos asked.

"Blame Kendall" Logan said narrowing his eyes playfully at the blonde.

"Sorry I kept you's waiting" Kendall apologised, smiling at Logan.

Logan placed his things on a lounge chair and reached for the bottom of his shirt. Kendall couldn't tear his eyes away as the brunette pulled the clothing off his body, revealing that gorgeous body he loved so much. He quickly snapped out of his daze and tried to look anywhere but Logan. That was difficult.

"Ready" Logan said throwing his shirt on to the chair.

"Okay lets go swim!" Carlos said and grabbed Logan's wrist. "Logie, I want to show you this new stunt I learned! It's good isn't James?"

"Yeah..great" James said absently, his eyes hadn't left Kendall since he'd arrived.

Logan chuckled and let Carlos drag him to the pool. Kendall couldn't help the pang of jealously he felt as he watched the two walk away. He sighed and turned to James.

"What are you staring at?" Kendall asked, realising James was watching him.

"Nothing.." he said giving Kendall one last look before turning and heading to the pool.

"Weird.." Kendall muttered under his breath as he placed all his stuff on one of the lounge chairs. He pulled his own top off then got in the pool to join his friends. Carlos was still at the edge getting ready to show everyone his new stunt. And James had already spotted a new girl and was using the 'James charm' on her. So Kendall stood beside Logan, a little closer than necessary, and watched Carlos.

After about an hours worth of swimming and watching Carlos' ridiculous stunts Kendall decided to get out of the pool.

He took his seat on the lounge chair, leaning back and placing his hand behind his head. He closed his eyes and relaxed. He, obviously, thought about Logan and how great things were going at the moment.

Before he could start daydreaming about Logan, said boys appeared in front of him.

"Hey" he said as he grabbed his towel and wrapped it around his neck, sitting on the chair next to Kendall's.

"Hey" Kendall said smiling. He realised lately that he just couldn't not smile when he saw Logan now.

"Oh man" He heard the smart boy mumble and turned to face him.

"What's up?" he asked concerned.

"I forgot my book.."

Kendall smiled again. "In my bag"

Logan gave him a confused look and the blonde just nodded towards the bag. He reached into the bag to find his favourite book in there.

"You brought my book?" he asked shocked.

"I knew you'd want to read" Kendall said simply, trying to make it out as if it was no big deal. But inside he was jumping for joy at the blush spreading across Logan's face.

"Um, thanks" he said shyly, staring at the blonde.

"No problem Logie" Kendall smiled again and the shorter teen smiled back.

Kendall rested his head back against his hands feeling quite good about himself. That was, until he heard an unfamiliar voice.

"Hey, it's Logan right?"

Kendall's head snapped in the direction of the voice to see a tall, dark haired guy standing beside Logan's lounge chair. His Logan.

"Um, yeah. Sorry do I know you?" Logan said, and Kendall could hear the uneasiness in his voice.

"Yeah, I'm Darren. We met at the party last Saturday" the guy said stepping closer.

Kendall could already feel his jealousy and anger rising.

"Oh yeah! I remember, you distracted my friend Camille for me when she wouldn't leave me alone" Logan said chuckling at the memory.

Kendall got a sickly feeling in his stomach, hearing Logan laugh knowing this guy 'Darren' was causing it.

"Yep" Darren said, aslo chuckling as he sat down next to Logan on his lounge chair. "So your in a band right?" Darren asked.

Kendall officially hated this guy. He was coming on to Logan.

"Yeah, me and my three friends. This is Kendall by the way" Logan said smiling, turning to face Kendall.

The smile dropped when he saw Kendall looking quite pissed off.

"Hey nice to meet you" Darren said politely. "So your in the band too? That's so cool, I always wanted to be in a band"

"Yeah" Kendall growled out, earning a nervous, confused look from Logan, who didn't really know what was going on. "I'm going back to 2J"

With that Kendall left, not waiting for Logan to say anything else. He marched up he stairs, not bothering to wait for the elevator, his fists clenched tightly against his sides.

His plan was going so well, he thought Logan was starting to like him. He was sure of it. Now it was ruined by Darren. Kendall even hated the sound of his name.

Kendall had a plan and now he had a problem. A BIG one.

Oooo so now Darrens in the picture, what's Kendall going to do to win his Logie?

Btw, i'm not sure why all the chapter begin with P, but i'll just roll with it ;-)
