As soon as James stepped out the door he was hit with a gush of with that pierced through his jacket like blades. Even though he was freezing he was worried about Carlos so he walked toHollywoodon ice. It was a public ice skating rink where Carlos went to clear his head or just to think when he was upset. The place was empty when he got there. He walked in the entrance to the rink and saw Carlos sitting on the other side so he walks over to him and sat next to him.
"Kendall's going to kill you." Carlos said without looking up.
James smiles "Yean I doubt it."
"How'd you know I'd be here?"
"You always come here when you're upset. I guess the ice helps you relax."
"Yeah it does. So why are you here anyway?"
"Cause you're my best friend and I'm worried about you."
"I'm fine."
"Come on Carlos don't give me that. I know something's wrong."
"James"
"Is it the fact that you and Logan can't have kids?"
"It's not fair."
"You think we chose to have this baby. I'm scared as hell Carlos. I don't know the first thing about kids but I'm not worried you know why? I don't just have Kendall in my life. I have you and Logan too and even our parents."
"Yeah I guess so."
"Look why don't you try a surrogate."
"What do you mean?"
"Find someone to carry the baby. If you both combine your sperm you could still have a baby. Even though you won't be carrying it the baby will still be yours."
"I don't know"
"Just think about it ok. This might be the only way. Shouldn't you at least give it a try or talk to Logan he's worried about you."
Carlos looks down "I know I think were over though."
"What do you mean?"
"Lately we've been distant from each other."
"That's because you're so focused and upset about this baby thing you're letting you're relationship suffer too. I know you're upset but shutting us out isn't going to help. You need to talk to Logan. If you don't there's a good chance you might lose him for good and I know you don't want that."
"Ok I'll talk to him."
"Wait you weren't going to do anything stupid right."
"Like what?"
"Like..."
"Kill myself you thought I was going to kill myself!" Carlos said nearly shouting.
"Well yeah."
"I'm not stupid I would never do that." Carlos looks down at James belly. "So how's it going?"
James looks down and rubs his belly "Good um she kicked earlier."
"What are you serious?"
"Yeah"
"Was Kendall there?"
"Yeah"
"Did you celebrate?"
"Well no"
"Why not?"
"Logan came in and told us what was going on. After that we all left to find you."
"Sorry I ruined your moment."
"That's ok I was more worried about you."
"I really am happy for you James."
"Thanks Carlos"
Carlos smiles and starts to notice that James was shivering. He took off his coat and put it around him. "Come on lets get you out of this weather."
The two stood and headed back to the house.
At that moment Kendall and Logan returned to the house. Logan came in and flopped on the couch followed by Kendall.
Logan covered his face with his hands and groaned. "Carlos, where the hell are you?"
Kendall look at Logan then around the house. "Crap"
Logan looks over at him. "What?"
"James isn't here."
"How do you know that?"
"Because I know him, he waited for us to leave then he left and I bet he found Carlos."
"It's freezing out there."
"I know and that's why I'm going to kill him."
A little while later Logan and Kendall were watching TV when the door opened and they both stood when Carlos and James walked in.
Kendall looked at a shivering James and walked over to him. "I'm going to kill you."
James smiled still shivering "Yeah but can you warm me up first."
Kendall chuckles "Come on" Kendall and James walk off.
Carlos walks over to Logan. "HI Logan"
Logan doesn't say anything he just hugs him. "I was so worried about you."
"I'm sorry"
Logan pulls back and rests his forehead against Carlos's, staring in his eyes. "I've been looking everywhere for you." Carlos looks down and Logan uses his hand to lift us his head, he the kisses him. "I thought I lost you."
"I'm-"
"Shhhh don't talk"Logan takes Carlos's hand. "Come on" He leads him up stairs. Logan sits on the bed with his back resting against the headboard and Carlos sits next to him. "So why don't you tell me what's bothering you."
"I think you know."
"Yeah"
"But James gave me an idea. Maybe we could get a surrogate. That way the baby will still be our blood."
"I like that."
"I'm really lucky I have you Logan."
"Me too"Logan kisses Carlos "I love you"
"I love you too."
James was under the covers still wearing both he and Carlos's jacket. He was drinking a cup of hot coco that Kendall made him. Kendall was unpacking the baby's things again.
"Kendall what are you doing?"
"I got to get the stuff ready for when she gets here."
"She's not going to be here for a couple more months Kendall you have plenty of time."
Kendall sighs and lies on his stomach next to James. His head facing James. "So I thought I told you to stay here."
"I couldn't just sit here Kendall I had to do something."
"Yeah but you not suppose to be out in that weather it freezing out there."
"I'm sorry I was going to call but you left you phone."
Kendall sits up next to James. "Next time just stay put ok."
"Why I'm not on bed rest."
"I know but now that the weather has changed I don't want you getting sick on me."
"Ok I promise it won't happen again."
Kendall smiles and gets under the covers next to James. "You need some sleep after today I know you're tired. "Kendall takes the cup from James and helps him to lie down. With James on his chest he fell asleep.
James stayed woke. He was thinking back on his conversation with Carlos. Truth is he was terrified about having this baby but at the same time, he couldn't be happier.
Mistakes are mine
P.S. Thank you irishoreo for the idea of them having a surrogate.
