Thank you for the reviews, and ideas that I could use! I really appreciate that, and I might eventually use some of your ideas.
I included a shirtless Kendall in this- so you better enjoy it! :o)
Disclaimer: I just own Jade, not Big Time Rush.
...
"Is it that obvious?" I asked Kendall, while raising my eyebrow.
"Well," he started. He lifted his hand up to my face and wiped one of the tears off my face with his thumb. "Yeah. You don't act okay," he shrugged.
"I try to, but I guess that I'm not that convincing," I chuckled.
He laughed a little back and then he asked, "What did James say to make you cry?"
My smile faded, and his green eyes bared into mine. "He made me feel guilty, but deserve it all. I screwed up big time,"
He nodded. "We all missed you," he sincerely told me. "A lot,"
"James sure doesn't sound like he misses me," I trailed off. "Do you think he hates me?"
"How could James ever hate you? Sure, he may be acting all weird, but it's just because he's upset," then he added: "If I missed out on Katie growing up for two years, I'd be the same,"
"I guess you're right, but it's not like I had a choice to grow up," I shrugged. "I miss when things were simpler,"
"Me too," he said. "You and James will be back to normal in no time,"
"I hope so,"
Then he gave me a hug. His hug was firm and comforting to say the least. We stayed in each others' arms for a couple minutes. I inhaled his scent of manly cologne and light sweat from dancing. We finally pulled away and he glanced at the clock on my night stand. It read 8:14.
"Would you like to go down to the pool with me?" he asked. "We can hang out and catch up, and you won't have to look at James,"
I laughed a little and then nodded. "Anything to keep my mind off of things,"
For a moment, we smiled at each other and then he walked out of my room to let me get changed.
After he left, I sighed and went over to the drawers I pulled out a simple green bikini that showed off some skin.
I locked the door and began to changed out of my clothes. I grabbed a white cover-up dress and opened my bedroom door.
I walked into the bathroom and took a look in the mirror. My skin was a little blotchy from the crying, and I had tear stains on my cheeks. I splashed my face with cold water, and washed the excess makeup off of my face.
I was a fan of natural beauty, so I never really worried about what my makeup looked like, or if I was really wearing any.
I glanced at myself as I pulled my brown hair into a high ponytail. I looked a lot like my brother. Tan skin, hazel eyes, perfect smile, tall, etc. It was always a reminded of him whenever I looked in the mirror, and it always made me feel more guilty for trying to forget about him.
I walked into the living room and saw Kendall waiting on the couch, a towel hanging around his neck. He was clad in green and blue plaid trunks, and a white v-neck. I couldn't help but stare, then I remembered to at least try not make a fool of myself.
"Are you ready?" I asked him, grabbing a towel out of what appeared to be the laundry room.
"Yeah!" he told me. "Mom! Jade and I are going down to the pool!" he called to his mom.
"Okay sweetie! Be back by a decent time!" she yelled from a room.
We proceded out the door of 2J, and walked down the hall to the elevator. The elevator ride was super short, and we were soon in the lobby.
There were countless teenagers hanging out on couches. They all either stared at my or gave me a glare when I walked past them. Hmm.
"Why is everyone staring?" I mouthed to Kendall.
"It's probably because they haven't seen you around. Just ignore it," he whispered.
Just then, a girl with dark, curly hair walked up to Kendall. She was fairly short, and she was very pretty.
"Kendall, have you seen Logan around?" she asked. She was probably the girl that Mama Knight spoke to me about.
"He's in 2J, reading I believe," he told her.
"Oh," she said. "Who's this?" she asked Kendall, glancing at me with a smile.
"This is Jade," he told her.
"Nice to meet you," I said, extending my hand.
"I'm Camille. Likewise," she said shaking my hand back. "Are you new here?"
"I guess you could say that. But I'm here visiting James," I explained. "He's my brother," I added.
"I didn't know that James had a sister! You two look a lot alike," she told me, smiling bigger than before.
"I get that a lot," I nodded, returning the smile.
"Well, we better get down to the pool!" Kendall said. "Talk to you later, Camille!"
He took my hand and walked me to the pool. "It was nice meeting you!" I called over my shoulder.
He took my to a spot with two chairs. The pool was empty, and it was slightly lit by the moon.
"Here we are- the famous Palm Woods pool," Kendall said presenting the pool to me.
I smiled and laid my towel on the chair, sitting down. Kendall took a seat at the chair next to mine and looked up at the moon for a moment.
Then he looked over at me, "Well, are we gonna swim or what?"
Without any words, I pulled my cover-up over my head and placed it on the chair next to me.
He was staring, so I smirked at him. "Like what you see?"
He laughed and picked me up, throwing me over his shoulder.
"Kendall! Don't you dare throw me in! I will-" and I was interrupted by making contact with the cool water.
I came up out of the water and sure enough- he was laughing. I swam over to him. "Are you gonna get in?" I asked.
He pulled his shirt over his head and threw it onto his chair. I checked out his perfectly toned stomach and nice pecs.
"Like what you see?" he said flexing and mocking me.
"Shut up Knight," I rolled my eyes.
He jumped in the pool right over me, causing a giant splash to hit my already drenched body.
He emerged laughing and swam over.
I didn't look at him, and acted like I was mad. "Are you mad?" he asked.
I splashed him and that turned into a splash war. We were laughing our heads off and having a great time.
"Same old Jade," Kendall said when I got out and sat on the side of the pool. He swam up to my and resting his arms and head on the side of the pool.
"Same old Ken-dork," I smiled at him, which earned me another splash to the face.
"You said you wouldn't call me that anymore!" he playfully yelled at me.
"That was over 2 years ago! The same rules don't apply," I said crossing my arms out in front of my chest.
"Whatever," he scoffed. "So how was high school?" he asked.
"It sucked. I wasn't the coolest kid on the block, everyone thought I was a big nerd," I told him.
"And you're not?" he asked.
"Oh, I am a nerd. And being in the show choir didn't help," I told him.
"You were in show choir?" he asked, raising his eyebrow.
"Yes, go ahead and make fun of me," I said, staring down at my hands.
"I just didn't know that you like to sing or dance," he told me.
I chuckled a little. "Yeah, I could say the same for you,"
He shrugged. "That's true. Are you any good at singing?" he asked.
"I have no idea, I don't like singing alone in front of people,"
"Why not?" he asked. "I never thought anything of singing, but I was sort of taken by surprise,"
"No kidding," I said sarcastically. "I just hate singing with people around,"
He used his arm strength to pull himself onto the edge of the pool and sat next to me.
"I never thought that I'd love to sing, but I'm in love with it,"
"Sounds like a rush," I said looking up at the blonde-haired boy.
"It is," he said looking into my eyes.
Then, as if there was a magnetic attraction, we started leaning forward. Our eyes closed and soon after, our lips were on each other's.
It was a soft kiss, and it was really unexpected. I placed my hand on his chest, and his went around my bare waist.
After we pulled away, we looked at each other wide-eyed.
"Woah," we both said.
We both took our hands off of each other and turned away. I bit my lip and turned back to look at him. He was rubbing his neck nervously, and weirdness was in the air.
I was not supposed to kiss my brother's best friend. How in hell's name did this happen?
"I'm so sorry," I said nervously.
"No, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have kissed you," he told me.
"It's fine, just-" I stumbled over words. "We can't let James find out, he would freak out even more,"
"Agreed," he said. There was another awkward silence until he finally suggested, "Let's get back to 2J,"
I silently gathered my things, putting my cover-up back on. I ran my fingers through my wet hair and followed Kendall back up to 2J.
Things just keep getting more difficult by the second.
…
I can't wait to write more with James in the next chapter! Kendall and Jade are all awkward…haha.
I will most likely update either tonight or tomorrow. Stay tuned!
Review please! :o)
