This chapter is going to clear up somethings, but there are still some "mysteries" left. This chapter might also contain a little too much love for somebody's taste and some scenes that are a little disgusting.
Just a warning.
Enjoy, though :)
Chapter 6
Logan's POV
"Kendall?" I called out into the hallway, I had heard giggling which sounded like it came from Kendall. I opened the door to his room and found James hovering over Kendall on his bed. I stood frozen in the door opening; there was no way to deny that they had just been making out. Before I even realized what I was doing, I had let out a sigh of relief. Kendall furrowed his brows at me, and James slowly crawled off of Kendall, looking confused.
"Why are you so relieved?" James asked, still confused.
"This makes things a little less complicated," I said.
"Logan, what the heck are you talking about?" James asked.
"Yeah, how can this," Kendall motioned between him and James, "make things less complicated?"
I blushed, slightly embarrassed to have to say this.
"Because that means he," I pointed to James, "doesn't have a crush on Katie."
"But how does- oooh," James said realizing what that meant. I swear, that boy had more intelligence than we gave him credit for. Kendall still looked confused, though.
"Ah, come on, Kendork, it's so obvious. That would only really be a problem if someone, say Logan, were to have a crush on her too," James explained, making me blush even deeper.
"WHAT?" Kendall shouted, looking outraged and disgusted, "so you really did sleep with her?"
"NO! No, of course not. I would never do that while I still had a girlfriend," I said. And people where in the apartment, I added mentally.
"Seems to be more than you can say, Kendall," I said. Okay, probably not the best move if your best friend just found out you had a crush on his little sister.
"I didn't sneak around behind my girlfriend's back!" Kendall said defending himself.
"Oh no? Then what about Jo?"
"I broke up with her when I realized my feelings for James weren't going anywhere."
Wow, he broke up with Jo to be with James.
"This is gonna take some getting used to," I said. James and Kendall agreed. There was a slight pause.
"Sooo… Is it okay if I ask Katie out?" I asked, slightly worried Kendall was going to punch me, or something. Kendall sighed.
"Yeah, I guess," he said and raised his index finger to point at me, "but if you hurt her, you're going DOWN!"
"I'll try my best not to hurt her, I promise."
"Is that why you came here in the first place?" James suddenly asked. I shook my head.
"I heard giggling that sounded like Kendall, and I came to check what was going on. Which I kind of regret, I could have done without walking in on that," I said flashing them a mocking smile. I walked back down into the living room and let the guys continue where they left off. If I hadn't killed the mood too much. I probably should have gone straight to Katie and asked her out, but considering how pissed off she was earlier, I figured it was best to let her cool of and make her try to forgive me for yelling at her. Come to think of it, I was surprised Kendall hadn't chopped my head off yet for that. But then again he might have been too busy with James.
Just then Carlos entered the apartment lost in thoughts.
"Hey Logan, do you have any idea who Kendall is crushing on? Oh, and I'm sorry about the shopping trip thing, I told Camille about it, I just didn't think it was such a big deal." Carlos sounded really sad at the last part. "And then James told her about Katie's joke and all that," he added.
"It's okay, it was really my fault anyways… As for his crush, isn't that Jo?" I suggested, not really feeling like outing them.
"No, I mean, he broke up with her and said he was into somebody else," Carlos explained. Of course, by now I knew that.
"Just go to Kendall's room and you'll find out," I said, not actually expecting him to do as I said. Before he got much further away, I twirled around in my seat. "No, Carlos, don't. I'll just tell ya."
Carlos came back towards the couch and sat down. "It- it's James. I walked in on them a few minutes ago," I said.
"Really, James?"
"Uh-huh."
"Wow, I never would have figured," Carlos said. "Me neither, bro."
"What is that you never would have figured?" Katie suddenly asked.
"You know how you, err, we thought James was jealous of Kendall when you hugged? Yeah, well turns out he was jealous of you. He's been crushing on Kendall," I told her and saw her mouth practically fall to the floor. She opened and closed her mouth a couple of times, like she couldn't find the words she was looking for.
"Does Kendall know?" she finally asked.
"Considering I just walked in on them making out, I'd say he does."
"Whoa, too much information, dude," she said holding up her hands as if that could keep the words away from her ears. I couldn't help but to let a smile escape. I looked deep into Katie's eyes and recalled I had some things to talk over with her.
"Carlos, would you mind letting us talk alone for a little while?"
Carlos, who evidentially figured there was something going on between us, just grinned and said "yeah, of course. I'll let you two lovebirds be alone for a little while."
Both Katie and I blushed slightly at his comment. Suddenly Katie put a hand to her stomach and groaned.
"Ugh, I don't feel so good," she said. I motioned for her to come and sit down next to me. She obliged and made herself comfortable against my chest. I was starting to feel all warm and tingly inside, having Katie cuddle up to me. I kissed the top of her head and sensed the smell of her shampoo mixed with her new fragrance. The smell of her perfume was so subtle, yet somehow powerful enough to turn me on.
"I'm sorry for yelling at you earlier. It's not your fault my relationship with Camille crumbled," I said calmly, "if I hadn't given her a reason to think that something was going on between us, she never would have believed it when James told her about your joke."
"James told her about that?" she asked, sounding like she wanted to be annoyed, but couldn't quite manage to do so. I only hoped it was an effect I had on her.
"Camille made a pretty good point though, I never did take her shopping and did things with you that I never did with anybody else."
Katie looked up at me, flashing me a smile that threatened to make me swoon.
"Like spending almost a thousand dollars on me without hesitating?"
"Yeahh. You figured that out, huh?" I asked feeling myself blush. "But hey, a special girl deserves special things."
"You're seriously spoiling me," she said and smiled.
"I know," I smiled brilliantly at her. We were silent for a little while.
"I'm sorry about Camille, though," she said, looking right in my eyes.
"Don't be. Although it hurt to see her so heartbroken, it was for the best. It's not really her that I'm in love with," I said staring right back in her deep brown eyes.
Katie smiled her teasing-mode smile at me. "Is this your way of saying you love me?" she asked in a teasing tone.
"I guess it is," I said. Katie smiled back at me with more power than I had thought a person could master, before I felt her soft lips brush against mine. Just that slight brush of her lips against mine sent fire through all of my veins.
Still being slightly turned on by the scent of her I pulled her in to a deeper, more passionate kiss that sent fireworks up all around us. In that moment there was nothing in the world but the two of us. Katie licked my lower lip, asking for access in my mouth that I granted her as she crawled on top of me, pushing me down on the couch. The kiss was bliss, a fight for dominance, but still bliss. I managed to roll us around so that she was underneath me. I don't know how long we lay like that, changing between being on top and on bottom, but I had a feeling it was a long time.
"I thought you said exchanging salvia was extremely unsanitary," she teased.
"Oh it is, but even if I risk getting sick, it's still so worth it," I smiled against her lips. She kissed me a few more times, before she finally answered; "good answer, doc."
I lifted my self off of her and helped her up too.
"Oh, I almost forgot; Katherine Marie Knight, will you do me the honor of being my girlfriend and go on a date with me tonight?"
"Are you kidding me? Of course I would!" she exclaimed cheerfully and threw herself around my neck. I laughed to myself of how much the entire situation reminded me of a proposal.
"I love you, Katie-bear," I said and kissed the top of her head.
"I love you too Logie-bear," she said using my mom's old nickname for me and kissed my cheek.
"So dinner and movie then?" she suggested.
"Sounds good," I smiled, "I'll pay of course."
"Like the gentleman you are," she said and gave me a quick kiss and headed off to her room.
I walked towards the bathroom and decided to get my shower done now. After a refreshing shower I walked to my room, dressed only in a towel. I then took about ten minutes to figure out what to wear to our first date and threw on something else. Sounds stupid, but I was planning on taking a trip up to the rooftop before the date, and didn't want to risk messing up my clothes.
I was about to head out of the apartment and up to the rooftop when I heard the sound of somebody throwing up. Kicking into doctor mode, I rushed to the bathroom and found Katie doubled over the toilet. It seemed like she struggled to keep her hair away from the toilet bowl, so I walked over to her and gathered her long, silky brown hair in my hands. Once she finally was done emptying her stomach, she turned to me teary eyed.
"I don't think I'm gonna be able to go to that date," she whispered looking down at her feet. I tilted her head up towards me.
"Hey, it's no problem. You're obviously sick and we can reschedule the date to any other day," I said and placed a kiss on her lips. The fire was still there.
"Wow, you must really love me to kiss me right after I threw up."
"Well, I do," I told her truthfully with a smile on my face, "besides, I figured that with the saliva exchange earlier, I'm gonna get sick anyways."
Katie fake gasped. "Oh my God, who are you and what have you done to my boyfriend Logan Mitchell?" she teased.
"I guess you just removed some of my bacteria fright," I said and placed a kiss on her cheek. "Now where do you wanna stay, the couch or your bed?"
Katie groaned. "Don't go all mom on me, okay?" she said refering to her mom's need to tuck the sick kids in with hundreds of blanckets.
"I'll do my best."
"Then my bed I guess," she said.
I lifted her up bridal style and carried her to her bedroom and covered her with her covers and a duvet we had in a supply closet. Then finally I got out a bucket with a little water in and settled in beside her.
"I have a feeling you're gonna be a great doctor one day," Katie said.
"Thanks," I said and kissed the top of her head. Before long, she was fast asleep against my chest. This was definitely something I could get used to.
What'd you think? Too rushed?
Too disgusting that Logan kissed her after she threw up, or just romantic?
