Chapter 4 of this story!

Enjoy! :)


In the evening, the boys ordered pizza. Logan washed the dishes they used and then they watched a movie. James invited his new girl, Logan only knew as the smart girl. In fact, she really wasn't as dumb as the girls, James usually dated.

After the movie, Kendall and Logan went back to their room. Logan secretly watched Kendall changing to his pyjamas, while he did the same thing himself. Oh the sweet advantages of sharing your room with your crush...

"So, what are we going to do tomorrow?", the brown-haired boy wanted to know.

"Hmm... what about... going to the beach?", Kendall suggested.

"That would be great. I don't even know when I was at the beach for the last time. And I could start reading my books", Logan answered enthusiastic.

"Yup and I could read Harry Potter. Hey and we could bring some food and make a picnic", Kendall said.

"That sounds amazing. I think we even have some strawberries in t-", Logan started to respond but suddenly Kendall's phone rang.

"Sorry, I'll be right back", Kendall told him and left the room.

From the living room he could hear Kendall say "Hey babe, aww I miss you too", and then Logan couldn't hear him anymore. This girl really knew how to ruin a wonderful moment.

When Kendall still didn't return half an hour later, Logan laid down to sleep. The next day was going to be a long but amazing day, so Logan didn't want to be tired.

Logan woke up against 9 am. At first he made himself some breakfast and then he looked in the fringe for some food they could bring to the beach. Just like Logan thought, they had some strawberries left. They also had all ingredients to make sandwiches, so they wouldn't have to starve.

The thought of the two of them, doing a picnic on the beach, send butterflies to Logan's stomache. This must be, what it felt like, to actually date Kendall. The feeling was overwhelming, beautiful and breathtaking. Sometimes it scared him, how much he loved his best friend.

The smart boy sighed. He took the ingredients he needed to make the sandwiches, when Kendall walked into the living room.

"Good morning Kendall. I'm making sandwiches for later, do you prefer ham or chicken?", Logan asked.

"Yeah uhm, about that... I need to tell you something", Kendall replied, looking guilty.

"Ok well... what's up?", the shorter boy wanted to know. Suddenly his heart pounded. Kendall wasn't going to ditch him now, was he? No that couldn't happen, Logan was too excited for this day.

"Jo called me last night and we kind of want to do a video chat today but well... She doesn't know, when she'll have time for that and she wants me to stay home until then", Kendall explained and smiled sadly.

"Oh... so you're not going to the beach with me?", Logan answered, while his heart shattered into little pieces. He needed to be strong in this moment, though. He couldn't start crying in front of Kendall.

"Well, that depends on when Jo is going to call. We can still go, if she calls soon but... I would understand, if you don't want to wait so long. I'm really sorry, Logan", Kendall told him.

"No, that's fine... We can wait here and I'm sure, she'll call soon", Logan answered, even though, he didn't really think so.

"Are you sure? I could ask James or Carlos, if they would want to go to the beach with you. I know that you were excited for today," Kendall said.

"Yeah I'm sure. I'm just gonna stay here and we can go to the beach later. No problem", Logan responded.

"Ok thank you, Logan", the blond boy replied. Kendall then made himself breakfast, while Logan went showering.

In the shower, Logan could finally let go and cry. Jo ruined his day and she wasn't even here. He knew that Jo only made this to make him angry, because she knew, that they had plans for this day. But of course, she had to destroy everything. He knew she wouldn't call so Kendall would have to stay home for the whole day. And the worst part was, that she would going to hurt Kendall in this little game as well.

Logan and Jo could take their fight out between only the two of them and there was no need to hurt Kendall in the process. He would never forgive her, if she did so.

When Logan came back to the living room, Kendall, James and Carlos were sitting on the couch, watching TV and eating breakfast. The second, James spotted Logan, he stood up and dragged him to his and Carlos' room.

"Carlos and I copied the songs yesterday, what now?", the taller boy asked.

"Well, give me the folder, I'll put it back in Kendall's closet. Since apparently, I'm going to stay home today, I can help you to make the mail for Gustavo. Someone has to distract Kendall, though", Logan responded.

"Youre staying home?", James wondered.

"Yes, thanks to a certain blond girl", Logan answered bitterly.

"Oh. I'm sorry", James said sympathetically.

"It's okay, I guess", the shorter boy told him and forced himself to smile, while they left the room.

Until noon, the boys only watched TV. When Jo still hasn't called Kendall at 1 pm, they decided to order some food, since the beach-picnic wouldn't happen. Of course, Logan was sad about that but what really got him mad, was that Kendall couldn't wait for the call, while Jo just wanted to tease Logan.

After they ate, Logan and James headed to James' room, to make the mail, they would send to Gustavo. To Kendall they said that they would going to study, because James wanted to impress the smart girl. Therefor, Carlos had the job to watch and distract Kendall.

The two brown-haired boys didn't need long but the result was really good. They once got a mail from Griffin, so they knew how it had to look like.

Around 3 pm, they went back to the living room, where Carlos and Kendall played a video game.

"Still no call from your girlfriend?", James wanted to know, while he and Logan sat down on the couch.

Kendall sighed and replied "No. She doesn't answer my texts either. I'm a little worried."

"Maybe she just forgot about it", Carlos commented but James smacked him on the back of his head, because of course Kendall didn't want to hear something like that right now. It was too late though, since the blond boy looked even sadder than before.

Logan was about to freak out. In his head, he just flied out to North Carolina to murder Jo. How could she hurt Kendall?

"Let's just play that game together. I'm sure, she'll call soon", Logan suggested. Once again, it was a lie but all that mattered in this moment was to take Kendall's mind off of things. And in fact, that's what it did. They played that video game for another two hours and Kendall didn't seem that sad anymore. He didn't forgot about it, though.

At 5 pm, Kendall's phone rang. He answered the phone with a legendary smile but then suddenly all of his happiness disappeared, while he said "Oh hey mom." He talked to Mama Knight about half an hour long. In the meantime, the three other boys continued to play the game. Kendall hung up and sat down on the orange couch again. His face held a mix of sadness and disappointment.

James, who noticed his friend's mood as well, paused the game and said "Maybe she just hasn't had time yet."

"Yeah but would it kill her to write him a fucking text message, saying that it will be later so he could do something else than to sit home and fucking wait for her call?", Logan yelled. He couldn't take it anymore. The smart boy stood up and walked to his room, because there were tears forming in his eyes again and he didn't want his friends to see him cry. Kendall, James and Carlos were still sitting there, shocked about how Logan freaked out.

A couple of minutes later, Kendall joined him in their room and sat on his bed.

"You are mad, because we couldn't go to the beach, right?", the blond boy wondered.

"No, I'm not", Logan answered, whipping his tears away.

"Oh shit, were you crying?", Kendall asked and stood up to sit next to Logan.

"Kendall please don't get me wrong but could you leave me alone right now?", Logan responded. The guilty look on Kendall's face killed him.

"No", Kendall told him suddenly.

"Wh- What?"

"I said no. I'm not going to let you down right now. Get up, we're going to the beach."

"What, no!"

"Yes Logan, get up."

"What about Jo?"

"Let me worry about her."

"I-", Logan started but had absolutely no idea, how to finish that sentence. Knowing, he could never really say no to Kendall, he could might as well just go along with it. Especially, when he could get a trip to the beach with his best friend out of it.

Kendall typed something on his phone and then they both grabbed their stuff, said goodbye to the other two boys and left the apartment.

"Oh no, now we forgot the strawberries", Kendall noticed pouting, when they finally arrived at the beach.

"It's okay, we can buy some ice-cream later", the smart boy suggested.

"Yay, I love ice-cream", Kendall yelled.

"I know you do", Logan answered, laughing about how Kendall acted like a five year old kid.

To their luck, the beach wasn't as crowded as usually. They laid down on the towels they placed on the sand and let the evening sun shine on them.

"Logan?"

"Hm?"

"You know, whatever it is that makes you sad, you can talk to me about it, right?"

"I- I'm not sad."

"I don't believe you."

"Why?"

"Because I notice when something bothers you."

Logan said nothing. Using words became pretty hard in this moment.

"Just don't forget that I'm always here for you, ok?", Kendall told him, breaking the silence.

"Ok. Thank you", Logan responded and they grinned at each other.

Some time later, they went into the water but they didn't stay long, because it was getting too cold. They dried themselves up, got some ice-cream and lied back down on the towels. After the sun got down, they headed back home. It was a short day on the beach but it was definitely worth it.

Logan desperately wanted to believe Kendall. He wanted to believe him, that he would always be there for Logan. He just couldn't imagine, that Kendall wouldn't run away from him, once he found out, that the brown-haired boy was in love with him. That he wouldn't be disgusted. That he wouldn't hate him. That he wouldn't laugh about him with Jo.

And that was still the hardest part. He was still in a relationship with Jo. He loved her and Logan couldn't just change that.

But at least now he knew, that if Kendall had to choose between a cyber date with Jo, without an exact time specification and a trip to the beach, with a sad Logan, he would choose Logan. That were some great news.
