The week passed and as it went it confused Kendall even more.

His dreams about James now happened every single night, a fact which was an embarrassing one due to the fact that Kendall woke up with a boner every time and was having a hard time hiding it from his fellow roommate.

Plus, it affected his schoolwork, because his attention was constantly wandering to James and his dreams about him.

Another curious thing is that Kendall turned very awkward around James. Always tripping, or falling, over small stuff whenever James was around. This often got him in trouble with Gustavo who kept yelling at him all through the week that he was messing up dance routines.

His friends all noticed the changes but they assumed it was just nervousness over which girl he was going to pick.

Friday finally came, and Kendall felt relieved. No more schoolwork or dance routines for two full days.

Plus, they had been awarded yet another Friday without any parental supervision because Mama Knight and Katie had won two nights at a nearby beach resort at some contest Katie had entered (Kendall couldn't guess how his sister always seemed to win every contest she entered).

The four BTR boys all entered the apartment joyous that it was weekend time. Carlos and Logan said that they had a date in a nearby restaurant but that they'd be back before 10:00 p.m in order to do something with the other two. They left to go to their room to change their clothes into more formal ones, leaving James and Kendall alone. Again.

"Well, uh, anyways, I was planning to head down to the pool as it is…swim for a little while, and besides, Mark invited me out for a smoothie," James said "Want to come?"

"Mark?" Kendall said quietly, slamming his fist on a nearby table, startling James "Since when do you two get along?"

"You know him?" James asked.

"One of the new guys? Wants to become a cello player? Yeah, I know him…" Kendall said "I also know he can be a real jerk at times."

"Well…I don't know. I think he's pretty nice and all, who knows? I might accept his offer to take me out on a date some time…" James said.

"Can I go down with you to the pool?" Kendall asked, choosing to ignore James' last comment.

"Sure…" James said, still a bit bewildered by Kendall's sudden change in mood.

"I'll meet you downstairs, I have to get my swim trunks first," Kendall said.

James nodded, and grabbed a towel and left.

Kendall purposefully selected his red swim trunks with black stripes in them. They hugged his body tightly, outlining the contours of his lower abdomen while showing off his impressive abs, almost every bit as toned as James'.

Once he made sure his appearance seemed sexually appealing, Kendall went down to the pool.

His selection of clothing had the desired effect.

Guys and girls alike stopped what they were doing when he was walking up to James, checking him out.

James himself was talking to Mark, drinking a blueberry smoothie when he saw Kendall and began choking on it.

'Damn!' James thought 'Did Kendall seriously have to wear that? Does he know how hard that makes it for me not to jump him right here and now?'

"Guys," Kendall said with a cold nod in Mark's direction and a warm smile in James'.

"K-Kendall," James stuttered, mentally slapping himself for doing so.

"I was just heading to get an ice cream, James, want one?" Kendall asked, ignoring Mark completely.

"I-yeah- sure…that'd be nice…" James accepted weakly.

When Kendall came back he found, to his delight, that Mark had left already, but James was now talking to Camille, Lucy, and Jo.

"Like I said," he heard James tell them "I don't know anything about which girl he's going to choose, he hasn't made up his mind yet."

Kendall closed his eyes and took a deep breath, he couldn't believe he was actually going to do this, but he was.

Taking yet another deep, calm, steadying breath he walked up to them.

Immediately, all four pairs of eyes (Lucy's, Jo's, Camille's, and James') were on him.

"Actually," he said "I already did."

"Well…?" Camille said, impatiently "Who do you pick?"

James tensed up and he immediately got up.

"I…really shouldn't be here," he said, trying to flee the place.

"Stay," Kendall told him firmly.

"No, Kendall, I'd much rather-"James said but Kendall cut across him.

"Really, James, stay," he said and gave him a warning glare that made James sit back down, against his will, to hear what the blonde boy was going to say.

Kendall sighed before continuing.

"Lucy," he began "I think you're amazing, and I've never met someone quite as interesting as you, as fun as you, but you still don't convince me that it's me you want by your side. Plus, I think that, deep down, we're just way too different, and you deserve better."

Lucy frowned but said nothing. James stood up, but remained there, waiting to hear what Kendall was going to say next, knowing (or thinking that he knew) what Kendall was going to say next.

"Jo," Kendall began "You are, possibly the sweetest, loveliest girl I've ever met and I love you, yeah, but it's not the kind of love one has for a girlfriend. Rather, I think we'd work out a lot better as just friends. That way, when a new opportunity such as last one comes your way, I won't be an obstacle for it. You are, after all, a great actress…"

"So," Lucy said, trying her hardest not to sound exasperated "We're back at square one. You can't decide which of us to pick…"

"Oh, I've decided, alright," Kendall said simply.

"WELL?" all three girls said impatiently.

Kendall said nothing.

Instead, he walked over to James and slipped his arms around his waist, pulling him close to him.

"What are you doing?" James hissed.

"I choose you," Kendall whispered in James' ear, causing James' eyes to widen, making said boy tremble. He suddenly became aware of Kendall's fingers which were slowly caressing his entire body, making him shiver even more, unconsciously arching into Kendall's touch.

The girls, who, despite the whispering, had heard everything, were shocked, to say the least.

"Sorry," Kendall said, looking up to them apologetically before resuming to kiss James' neck. James by now had been reduced to a moaning mess. It shocked Kendall how James let himself be completely dominated by him, like Kendall could do anything to him and he'd comply.

Lucy smiled and shook her head incredulously.

"How in the world didn't I see this coming?" she asked before adding "Congratulations guys, now, if that was all…I'm leaving."

Jo gave a small laugh.

"And here I thought you'd help me set James and Mark up," she said simply before adding as well "Congratulations James, you were right, he IS a great guy…"

"Thanks," was all James could gasp out, Kendall's kisses leaving him literally breathless, yearning for more.

As soon as the girls had left, Kendall pulled away from James.

"What- what was that?" James asked, still dazed by Kendall's kisses, Kendall's touches.

"The truth," Kendall answered simply.

"You mean that?" James asked him, his tone hopeful.

Kendall nodded before pulling James in for another kiss, this time, right on the lips.

James moaned.

This kiss was so different from their first one.

For starters, Kendall was participating in it now, his lips moving along James'.

It was also, oh, so much more intense, so passionate.

James moaned again, Kendall's mouth feeling so good on his own. Kendall used this opportunity to get his tongue inside James' mouth, their tongues battling for dominance but James eventually letting Kendall win. He moaned again and Kendall's tongue massaged his own, beginning to feel dizzy from lack of oxygen.

Rather breathless, they both pulled back to stare lovingly into each other.

The whole of Palm Woods who'd been down at the pool had witnessed their little show. Now, several people were whistling, or else clapping, making both BTR boys blush.

"So…." Kendall said, grabbing James' hand in his own "You're my best friend and all that and I really don't know a proper way to ask you out but-"

"Yes Kendall," James answered immediately "Of course I'll go out with you, of course I'll be your boyfriend, you don't even have to ask…"

"Boyfriends?" Kendall asked, looking into James' eyes, still holding on to his hand.

"Boyfriends." James agreed.

And they kissed once more to seal the deal…

A/N: And, that's it for this chapter. Did you like it? I did, I enjoyed writing it, and then re-read it several times to see if I still liked it, and I did. But...you guys tell me. It WAS a little short, I'll give you that but I promise to make up for it in later chapters.

Now we can finally begin focusing more in the Kames fluff (and smut) which will be more obvious from this point on.

REVIEW! Reviews get shouts out and motivate me to keep posting weekly!

Cheers,
