When James was finally coming out of his room to get some breakfast he already heard Carlos and Logan arguing about something. „…no, it's not." „Yes, it is." „No." „Yes." Then Kendall interrupted this pointless fight. „Guys, stop. I think i have to side with Carlos on this one, Logan, sorry." „Ha!" James walked into the kitchen asking what this fight was about. Slightly baffled he realised that Logan was blushing instead of answering. Finally Kendall answered him. „They were arguing if kissing is part of seducing someone." „WHAT?" James looked murderously at Carlos. „Why would you be talking about that?" Carlos grinned. But it was once again Kendall who answered. „We just wanted to make sure you and Logan weren't kissing behind our backs." „WHAT?"

James was looking at his three best friends. Carlos grinned widely, Logan was focused on the table but his face was a lovely shade of red and Kendall was looking like he would have a laughing fit any moment now. „Why, I mean … what? I aehm why would you think we would kiss?" If Carlos had said something to Logan James would make sure to murder him. He hoped that his look was telling Carlos that. But the Latino shrugged innocently. James was about to focus his attention on Kendall when finally Logan was speaking up. „Kendall asked why I asked him on a date yesterday and I told them that I used your expertise to learn the technique of seducing someone. Apparently seducing someone includes kissing."

Okay, this was a lot more innocent than James had thought. He nodded. „Yes, kissing is part of seduction. But not necessarly a part of seducing someone to get them to go out with you." He told his friends. This was a topic in which he was an expert. Relaxed he started to get his breakfast. But then Carlos spoke up. „Well, you use it often to make sure the girls will go out with you." Damn. How did he get out of that one. He knew that Carlos would be pushing into confronting him and Logan. But Kendall was saving him.

„Yeah, he does. But we all know he's never really interessted in the girls anyway but he just wants to make out. So he needs that as an excuse. And as far as I understood Logan really wants this someone to go on a date with him. That's a different circumstance." James took a deep breath and nodded. He sat down on the table with his bowl of cereals in front of him. „Exactely." He was sure now the mortifying part oft he conversation was over. But just when he had taken the first spoonful of his breakfast Logan was grinning at him and said: „Well, now that I think about it, maybe I want to kiss them, to convince them to go out with me, too." James spat his cereals over the table. „WHAT?"

James looked at Logan but then saw him bumping his fist with Kendall, both laughing their asses off at the look James was giving them. Carlos patted his arm. „Poor James, people always making fun of you." He mocked. But James wasn't feeling like sitting with his friends any longer. He took his breakfast and stalked of to his room. On his way he heard the other three still laughing. Well, that would definitely answer the question if Logan was trying to seduce him.

James sat on his bed, now suddenly not hungry anymore. Could it be that he was dissapointed? Was he starting to fall for Logan? During the night he had only thought about the possibility that Logan was into him but he had not thought about his reaction to that. But now being dissapointed would mean that he was willing to give Logan a chance. Did that mean he was gay? Or bi? Never had James thought about any other guy like he now did about Logan. And that had only started after their practise. Wow, it did seem like he might have a crush on Logan. Too bad, he had now made sure that he wasn't into James.

The next few hours James lounged on his bed feeling sorry for himself, flipping through his fashion magazine and thinking about everything. He had himself convinced that this was only a slight crush on his best friend and that this would pass if he only ignored it. But that meant he had to tell Logan that their practise was over. He had learned all the neccesary techniques he now only needed to use them. Then James had enough of being inside in a boring bedroom when he could also be tanning at the pool surrounded by beautiful girls who would take his mind off of his problems. With this cheerful thoughts James finally left his room in only his swim trunks and with a towel around his shoulder. But guess who was sitting on the couch with no one else around? Logan. He looked up and smiled at James.

This was a good opportunity to end the teaching. James walked over and stood next to the couch. „I wanted to talk to you." He said but Logan interrupted him. „Me too. I'm sorry about this morning. I hope you're not mad at me." Logan stood up and was now standing in front of James. James swallowed. „No, it's okay. I was just tired and this didn't help my mood." He looked at Logan who stood there and was biting on his lips. „But, you know, I think that you have now learned enough and can get to asking whoever you like. So, I'm going to the pool now." He turned around and made two steps before he heard Logan speak again. „So you don't teach me how to kiss properly to seduce someone?"

James would have been really mad at Logan for bringing that up again had Logan not sounded so timid and shy. He turned to the smaller boy and studied him. Logan was still biting on his lips, his cheeks a deep red and his head hung low. But his eyes looked up at James shyly. „Logan…" James wasn't sure how to react. Did Logan want that? Was that him making a move on James? Or was that a joke? Logan sure didn't look like he was joking. Before James could decide what to do Logan reacted. His face turned an even deeper shade of red if that was even possible and he tried to back away from his friend. „I'm sorry. That was too much … I …" The boy stuttered.

This was a clue to James that he wasn't joking. He crossed the distance between them and swooped down, kissing Logan full on the mouth. The other one was rigid, not reacting for a second but then kissed back. James felt Logan's hands against his upper body, slowly sneaking their way up around his neck. They were kissing for a minute then James broke them apart. „I have to go." And with that he run out the door leaving a stunned Logan behind.
