A/N: Oh my, I was a little blown away with all those sweet comments on 'chapter 1'. So I decided to write a chapter 2. I'm very scared that this will disappoint you all, so I'm very sorry if it does. I've got ideas for a third chapter; let me know if you want me to continue. Enjoy!
I am awesome!
Well, to be completely honest, we are awesome. Our producer had just walked into the room, immediately telling us what's going on in the new episode. I wasn't really paying attention to the man. I was way too busy to study the facial expressions of Kendall and Logan. They just heard that they have to kiss each other. I would've been surprised to, but right now, I couldn't be satisfied more. My job is done.
Carlos and I volunteered to search through the internet to find what our older fans would like to see on our show. I took us a couple of hours. But what we found was very rewarding. There are hundreds of girls who don't just watch the show and listen to our music. No. They create pictures and make up stories. The most popular subject of these stories and photoshopped pictures? Kogan. I didn't know they were that obvious.
The friendship of Kendall and Logan has always been a little different. Different from other friendships they have with me and Carlos for example. They aren't like bro's. I honestly thought that only I and Carlos noticed that, because we are with them all the time. Apparently, everybody can tell. Everybody, but them. I don't blame them, though. You can't see the sparkles your own eyes when you're looking at someone else. I know, I know, that's deep.
So we told the writers and producers that the fans really want them to hook up in some kind of way. You should have seen their faces. Surprisingly, they didn't expect us to suggest that. We left them alone with our information and I guess this is what they came up with. Stuck in a supply closet. We'll tell them later that this was all our idea, in a way.
It was the third day on set. I just finished a couple of scenes with Stephen and Tanya. And I was so done with it. Way too tired to function normally. I knew I should have gotten more sleep last night. I was almost drifting into the land of sleeping when I heard a soft knock on my dressing room door. "The door is open."
It was Kendall who came in. He looked very… twitchy. "James, why am I nervous?" He confirmed my suspicion instantly.
"I don't know, why are you?" He went to sit down on a chair opposite to the couch I was lying on. His foot was tapping on the floor; his hand was playing with his hair. "Wasn't I asking you that first."
I rolled my eyes at his answer. This is definitely his behavior when he is nervous. "Dear Kendall, I'm sorry, but the gift of reading minds wasn't destined for me, so I can't do that. You have to tell it yourself." I raised my finger in the air to make my point more clear. With that, I could bring a little smile on his face. But he went right back to his nervous expression.
"Oh come on James, you know the reason why I'm nervous, I just don't know why I am." Oh right, today was the day of his kiss with Logan. And he's nervous, how cute. Before you assume anything, I am older than him so I'm allowed to call him cute, thank you. But now he wants me to explain why he's so nervous?
Before I could even say anything he continued. "I don't get it, dude. I kissed Katelyn a couple of times now, and she's like a sister. And yes, it might have been a little weird, but I wasn't nervous. Hell, I even kissed Kevin once…" Teehee what? He kissed Kevin? I had to know more about that. "You kissed Kevin? Why would you kiss your brother on the lips?" He glared at me, definitely not amused with my question. "It was a dare, okay? Please, please don't ask. But even though that was pretty weird as well, I wasn't nervous or anything like that. So why, James, why am I nervous to kiss Logan?" He ends almost shouting at me. I decided to play dumb. "How should I know?" I really had to swallow my words; I didn't want to tell him exactly why he was nervous. Even though I obviously knew. Everybody knew.
"You know me. Can't you read my face or something?" I sighed. It's amazing how oblivious he is being right now. He can almost answer this question himself. "Kendall, just tell me, what do you think?"
He opened his mouth to say something and he shut it straight away. He tilted his head slightly and looked at me funny. "James." It came out as if he would collapse if I didn't give him an answer. "You know, that I don't know, so stop acting like I know, because I don't know. That's why I came to you. But if you don't want to help me, then never mind." He stands up. Ready to leave the room. Oh, Kendall. "Dude, sit down. Look, you have to kiss a friend who you see every day. It might be for your job, but it's still odd. Just stop worrying and kiss the guy." I wanted to add: 'and after that, act like nothing happened.' But that would just ruin all the fun.
I was sitting on a chair, one of those director chairs, when someone said something to me. "James, can you go find Logan, we need him here." I stood up and walked towards his dressing room. When I entered the hall way Logan was just stepping out. "Logan, are you ready? We need you in the supply closet. Now." I was smirking. He walked passed me without even looking at me. I think he might be nervous as well.
While they were shooting the first two scenes, I kept my distance. This wasn't all that interesting. It was still fun to watch the nerves in their eyes. That might sound harsh, but they will enjoy it eventually. Before I knew it, it was time for their third scene. I could hear the door close so I want back to the director's chair were I was sitting on earlier. Focusing my eyes on a little screen so I could see exactly what the camera was seeing. At first, it was actually pretty boring. Normally, the rest of the cast would just walk away with little scenes like this. But for this special scene, everybody's sticking around. I wonder why.
"Cut. Again. Take three." I hear the director yell. I shift a little in my chair. Hell, even I am a little nervous. I was watching the scene and then there was that moment. My eyes shot wide open. Instead of looking at a little peck on the lips I was looking at a make out session. I was screaming on the inside. Screaming out of happiness. They did it! I was jumping out of the chair like a little kid. Some crew members looked at me as if I was crazy in the head. I saw Logan leaving the closet. Walking away. I didn't saw Carlos anywhere and I just had to talk to him. In the corner of my eye, I saw Kendall leaving the closet as well, taking off in the same direction as Logan did.
I spotted Carlos holding a plate of food. Of course he has food. I don't understand how he isn't super fat. He's always eating. "Carlos, did you see it?" Carlos froze in his steps. "See what?" I couldn't believe it. Did he really miss the 'most wonderful scene ever', as the fangirls would say? "Carlos, are you kidding me? You didn't see Logan and Kendall kiss?" He slapped his own head. "Men, I forget that they were gonna shoot that right now, how did it go?" I smiled widely at him. I scared him a little bit with that. "My friend, our mission is complete. They made out." I could see Carlos' smile grow wider in milliseconds. "NO WAY!" He shouted. "This is so great. Did they film it?" I didn't think about that. It was all recorded.
I left Carlos alone with his food and I walked towards our director. "Hey, are you guys gonna broadcast that, uh *cough*, kiss?" He laughed. "No James, It's still a show meant for kids." I sighed in relief. Even though I was ecstatic about that kiss, I wouldn't want everyone to see it. I decided to send Logan a text message.
'Don't worry, they won't broadcast it. Have fun with your new toy. ;)'
The next day was a little awkward. Because of the make out scene, they didn't have any footage so they had to record it again. Kendall and Logan had to kiss again. But I don't think that they saw it as a problem this time. So yes, that was pretty awkward for the rest of us. When it was time to shoot the scene, two giggling boys came out of Kendall's dressing room. They went into the closet, again. They were without their nervous faces and with a grin from ear to ear. They were excited.
The scene was done in four takes. So I took them four innocent kisses. Okay, that's a lie. The first two were not at all that innocent. It grossed all the guys out, and all the girls were making 'aww' sounds. Our director thought it was funny as hell, but he was also relieved when they finally had a good take. And I got to tell you, fireworks are going off in that scene!
I was glad that they were finally acting on their feelings and what not, but it was already getting annoying. Their faces were like plastic, as if their smiles could never leave their faces. It was sickening. I know, it's entirely my own fault, and I'm happy for them. But it was too much that I could hear them this morning in that dressing room. Carlos was already feeling a little regret. But only for our own good. Because now all that we have won for ourselves are some pretty inappropriate noises.
The following afternoon, Kendall paid me another visit in my dressing room. He barged in without knocking. He walked towards the exact same chair he was sitting on 24 hours ago. Only this time, he didn't sit down. He went straight to the talking. "Okay, James. Cut the crap and explain to me what's going on with me… us… Logan and I." I chuckled and went to sit down on my couch on the same spot as yesterday. "You still want me to explain what's going on in your head?"
"Come on, James. We're best friends, help me out! Why do I like this so much, and he seems to be enjoying it too. We just can't stop touching each other." Okay man, TMI! "Yeah, I heard that." I commented. In a few seconds the color of his face went from normal to pale. "You… you heard us? Oh that's just wonderful. You don't hate us, right?" I don't know when Kendall became so insecure but it was pretty funny. I laughed at him a little bit and then I started talking: "Want to know a secret? Carlos and I were those researchers, Kendall. This was all our idea. We thought that we were the only ones who noticed your shared glances and touches, but we weren't. So many people caught on to it. The only ones who are oblivious about it are you two."
Kendall stared at me with wide eyes. "What are you saying?" I couldn't believe that he still hadn't figured out what I meant. "What I'm saying is that you guys aren't just normal friends, you're more than that. Just think about how happy Logan makes you feel when you're with him." He cuts me of; an even more shocked look in his eyes, if that was even possible. "How did you know that?" I laughed at him for the second time. "You said it yourself yesterday, I can read your face." "But…" I rolled my eyes at him. "No buts. Just go back to him, tell him how you feel. Tell him how he makes you feel. And don't worry, his feelings are mutual." I winked at him while standing up. I grabbed him by his arm and shoved him out of the door.
Now my job was really done. I really am awesome!
