Last chapter! Also, this is the first story I have finished! YEAH!
James was still sitting besides Kendall while everybody else had gone home. Will, Logan and Carlos had decided to come back with a sweater for James. They planned on staying with the pretty boy threw the whole night, so on the way back they were also going to grab three cups of coffee.
As James watched Kendall's face he noticed that he look peaceful. Almost like he liked to be asleep with everybody worrying about him. He knew that it was the wrong thing to be thinking about but right now James just couldn't help it.
Getting up, he noticed that the mean nurse had come in with Kendall's new medican. She seemed to soften when she saw James because she didn't glare at him.
"You must have a strong connection with your friend here." She said with out looking up from the chart that she was looking at.
Surprised by her words James just nodded.
"About the other night, I am sorry. I didn't realize what you were trying to do. Mama Knight talked to me before she left and explained that you were just trying to talk to him about something that had to be important."
"More than you think..." James turned his eyes back to the boy sleeping in the bed.
"If it makes you feel better, he is going to wake up."
"It doesn't..." James noticed that she got a little annoyed by his answer so he said, "Its not that its not true, but I have had to many people in my life not wake up when they were said too."
She just nodded before giving Kendall he medican threw his IV. Once she was done she faced the boy, giving his shoulder a tight squeeze, she left.
James was still looking at the blond in the bed. It really scared him, if Kendall didn't wake up like his dad didn't he would see no reason in staying in LA. Once Kendall made his dream come true, his dream turned into one with Kendall.
Not having the boy with him... the dream wasn't there.
Logan and Carlos came about fifteen minutes later. Logan had gave James his coffee before sitting down next to him.
"Has there been anything?" Logan knew that it wasn't something to bring up, but he couldn't stop it from sliping threw his lips.
Sighing, James rubbed his face, "Nothing."
This worried the two, James had never been this... dull.
~line break~
It was now midnight. Carlos had dosed off but Logan and James were still awake watching the muted TV which was showing a Criminal Minds episode. Really they were just staring at something to keep from talking but Logan knew that they would have to eventually so, why not?
"James.. how are you? I mean, how are you taking this?"
"Fine."
"Bull shit." Logan wasn't going to sit there and watch his friend suffer, when he could actually help him. "You know that you are lying to your self right?"
Taken back from Logan's blow up, James got up and stood looking out the window.
"You don't know how many times I have had to go threw something like this Logan."
"James, he is going to wake up, it was just a reaction to a medican that his body couldn't take! That is all, they caught it in time as to where it isn't going to do much damage!"
"No Logan, that is not what I am talking about. I am talking about how people say that they are going to wake up. They never do! My dad didn't from his car crash. My grandpa didn't from his stroke, and my sister didn't from the school shooting! Kendall has been with me threw all of those helping me threw them. Heck, he even tried to shield the bullet from my sister having taken the worst of the hit. you can't keep saying that he will wake up because in my mind I know that it is just a cover up for what is really going to happen!"
Logan was speechless. He knew about every one of the deaths that James had listed. He didn't think he took that hard. He didn't even know that Kendall was that close to him.
"James-"
"No, I can't live without Kendall. If he... dies from this you can pretty much consider me dead too. He has been their for me too much for a little promise that he is 'going' to wake up for me to hang on to that. Nobody knows... nobody." James was now facing Logan, the smart boy could see the tears trying to break threw but James was holding the in,
"James, Kendall is going to make it threw this. There is no if, and, or but about it. He is going to walk out of this hospital like the boy that we all know and love."
"Yeah, but what brought him in here? What brought him out to LA to all the stress that we knew, we KNEW, was going to be set on our shoulders?"
Logan, for once, didn't know that answer. Right now, all that he knew was he got James to vent and he really needed this.
"What James?"
"My dream, my need to get to the audition because I wanted to be famous. He was always doing the things that I wanted to do. Will, my dream changed when I moved out here with him. It changed into one with him no matter what."
Stepping forward Logan pulled James into the hall way to keep him from waking up Carlos. Walking into the empty waiting room, Logan sat the boy down.
"You need to see what is in front of you James. Yes, Kendall did get us out here so you can live your dream, but he also did it so we could all spend some more time together. He knew what this was going to do to all of us, maybe not to such an extent but still. He knew, but you know why he went any way?"
James just looked down shaking his head.
"He did it for the boy that he loves." James' head snapped up. "Yes, I said love. James, Kendall does love you even if he doesn't realize it yet."
Letting one tear fall James pulled the smart boy into a hug.
"Thanks Logie."
Logan just laughed.
~Line break~
Carlos woke up by himself in Kendall's room. Looking around, he wondered where James and Logan had gone.
Glancing at the clock he noticed that it was six in the morning.
"God, it has been a long night," muttering to himself, Carlos looked towards the bed. It didn't look like Kendall had waken up yet. He was still in the same position.
Logan and James walked in with coffee in time to see Carlos slump onto the floor.
"Geez Carlos, didn't think you were ever going to stop snoring," Logan said as he handed him a cup.
"Shut up."
Taking their seats James got back up right away.
"I can't take this any more!" James started to pace the room. "If he doesn't wake up soon I am going to pull all my hair out!"
"Then your hair is going to have to suffer..." Kendall said in a hoarse voice.
Making a direct v-line for Kendall's side, James started to get hi hair out of his face.
"Hey..."
"Water?"
Logan appeared before James could open his mouth with a glass.
"Here, how are you feeling?" James asked as he watched Kendall take a drink.
"Like I swallowed a huge pill, what happened?"
"You had a bad reaction to the medication they put you on for the heart attack." Logan said as he stood at the bottom of the bed. "Gave us a big scared, you have been out for over two days."
"Yeah, this one here," Carlos pointed towards James, "Hasn't left the hospital since. He pretty much claimed the seat by your bed."
Kendall looked towards James, the boy looked tired.
"You should of gone back to 2J."
"Why?"
"A bed."
James just laughed before grabbing Kendall's hand in his own. Kendall was going to pull back since Logan and Carlos were in the room, but he was too weak. He could feel his face getting red. James chuckled a little before taking his hand up and cupping his face.
"They know Kenny, they kinda figured it out."
"Oh.." Kendall looked up into James' eyes, ending up in an eye lock. "James.. I am sorry."
"For what?"
"For all of this, not being able to handle everything..."
"Its not your fault Kenny.. just, shut up. We do not need to talk about that, okay? Just.. shut up."
Carlos and Logan could see that the two had a moment going on and that they needed to be alone so they stepped out into the hall way.
Kendall saw them go, but he wasn't going to say anything. He thanked them for it.
Taking his hand, James pulled Kendall's face back towards him.
"You should know this has been hell.''
"I thought that we weren't going to talk about this-"
"It has been hell because I couldn't hold your hand without you holding mine back. And... not being able to kiss you for the first time."
Kendall sucked in a breath as he felt James' lean closer, he stopped just centimeters away looking at Kendall to finish, but the blonde had closed his eyes. Taking the last step, James pressed his lips to Kendall's.
There was a spark that neither had even felt before. It was ... awesome.
"Hey Kendall- oh.."
"You idiot I told you to wait!" James pulled back to Look at Logan and Carlos who were standing in the door way.
Kendall had buried his head into James' chest full of embarrassment.
"Um.. we could come back." Carlos said.
"No, what do you want?" James asked as he wrapped his arms around the shaking blonde.
"We were wondering if.. Kendall would like to call his mom to tell her that he had woken up."
James laughed.
THE END! (there might be a sequel! Please tell me if there should be!)
