I didn't enjoy the last chapter. Lol. I thought it was really choppy and whatever. But apparently you guys enjoyed it. Mostly because of the ass kicking that Kendall did. I loved writing that part. It felt good. Haha. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this chapter as well! Don't forget to review and all that! I love you guys!

James POV:

When I had gotten home from work the previous day I was definitely not expecting Kendall to tell me that he beat the crap out of Beau. When he told me I wanted to jump up with joy and congratulate him on finally standing up to that self-centered douche bag but then I saw the tears flowing down his cheeks and it just made me want to kill that guy for existing. I had held Kendall all night and even though he fell asleep he kept crying all through the night. I thought he was awake when he started crying the first time but I gently nudged him and said his name and got no response. When he woke up he looked exhausted so I told him that he should just not go into work. He nodded and told me that I better not take off of work because of something so foolish. I decided against him and took off the day anyway. Shortly after he called into work he fell back asleep and stayed that way for a while.

When he awoke he saw me sitting next to him in his bed and asked, "What time is it?" He rubbed his eyes and I kissed his forehead.

"It's a little after noon."

"James, I told you to go to work. I'm fine."

I rolled my eyes, "Yea. I don't think so. It's only one day and it's my pleasure to be with you. Even if you are completely down."

He slowly got out of bed and said, "Alright. Let's go somewhere. If you're going to take a day off of work then we're going to use our time wisely. I'm not wasting a perfect day with you."

"Kendall I know you don't feel like doing anything. Just lay back down."

He shook his head, "No. I'm going to shower. I'll be out in a little while and I expect you to be dressed and ready for our day out when I come back."

I sighed and walked over to my closet knowing that it would be pointless to argue with him. If he wanted to go out then we were going to go out. And if it would make him happy to go somewhere instead of moping around the apartment, then I was all for it.

By the time he got out of the shower I was dressed just like he had requested. I wore grey skinny jeans, a blue graphic t-shirt, and my leather jacket. I knew he would end up getting cold but would be too stubborn to bring his own jacket so I had to think ahead. He quickly got dressed and just like I predicted, he didn't bring a jacket. He wore a plaid green shirt, a grey beanie, and black skinny jeans. It was getting cold in Minnesota and even though it wasn't snowing it still felt like it could be.

I knew Kendall couldn't wait for the snow because that meant winter activities. I personally couldn't wait for it to be winter either. The guys and I would always go to my parent's cabin and play hockey on the lake in the backyard. It was our winter tradition and even though I wanted Kendall and I all alone in that cabin didn't mean I wasn't looking forward to all of us being there. Besides, I would have all winter to take Kendall there. My parents never used it anymore because they thought they were getting too old to go on vacations alone. Whatever. Kendall and I would never be too old to go places. My parents were just stuck up and I pretty much avoided them at all costs.

"James?"

"Hmm?" I looked down at Kendall and he had a very serious expression on his face. "What's wrong?"

"What if he shows up again and tries to get revenge?" I had to really focus on his words because they were almost like a whisper. I could tell that he was truly scared that Beau would show up at our door again and do something terrible to him.

I grabbed his hand and squeezed it tight. "If you ever shows up again then you let me know. Don't open the door or anything. If I'm not home then call me right away. I'll take care of it. Ok?"

He nodded and leaned his head on my shoulder. "Thanks, Babe."

I laughed and he looked up at me with angry eyes. "What's so funny?"

"It's just that a few months ago this would all seem so ridiculous. If you hadn't been such an asshole that one day in our room then I wouldn't have you right now. At the time I despised you for doing such a thing to me because honestly I had been crushing on you for years. I mean I never thought we would be walking down the street holding hands with your head on my shoulder." I smiled, "It's just wonderful. I feel like one day I'm going to wake up and this will all be an amazing dream."

He stopped us and grabbed my other hand in his, "This is our dream, remember? We're about to make that one dream come true. The only thing that you're going to wake up to from this point on is me next to you."

I leaned down and gave him a kiss. "I wouldn't want to live this dream with anyone else. You know that right?"

"I know that."

"You also know that now that I have you I'm not going to let you go? Because seriously I will tie you up and hold you captive in my closet if you ever try to leave." I laughed but I felt him tense up a bit.

I mentally smacked myself remembering that he had been tied up previously when he wanted to leave. I closed my eyes and squeezed his hand.

"I didn't mean it like that. I'm sorry Kendall."

He shook his head, "Don't worry about it. You did nothing wrong. I just need to get over it. I know you would never do something like that to me. You're amazing."

I let go of his hand and put my arm around his shoulders to pull him closer to me. I kissed the top of his head and we continued to walk.

"I wish I could be as amazing as you are."

He chuckled, "That was so corny."

"I'm not kidding though. When we were growing up I used to think about how I wanted to be more like you because you were so awesome. Everyone liked you and I wanted that. You were my inspiration to go after everything that I wanted. And look at this." I squeezed his shoulder, "I have exactly what I want right here."

He laughed, "You're just one giant cornflake aren't you?"

I shrugged, "Well you know. I'm a pretty romantic guy."

He lifted my hand up and kissed it gently. "That you are my Darling. That you are."

As we continued walking I realized that neither of us had eaten anything that day and that I was actually really hungry. I saw that we were only a block away from Kendall's favorite diner and got kind of excited. I had never actually got to meet the owners and he had always said wonderful things about them.

"Hey Kendall?"

"Yea?"

"Can we go to that diner?"

His face lit up and I could see the excitement in his eyes. "Yes! Jett and Camille are coming to our wedding so you have to meet them! You'll love these people!"

His pace suddenly got quicker and thank god I had long legs. By the time we reached the door we were running and that was a good thing as well because about 30 seconds after we walked in it started pouring rain.

I was looking around at the décor of the restaurant and it felt very homey. It wasn't a big place but it was perfect for families and friends to just come and relax. There were only a few tables set up and maybe 6 booths against the walls. There was a granite countertop with 5 chairs lined up next to it where there were two old men talking about their grandchildren. I smiled hoping that maybe that would be Carlos and me one day.

I felt someone tap my shoulder and noticed that Kendall had been trying to get my attention.

"Why are you staring at those men?", he laughed.

I shrugged, "I was just thinking that I hope Los and I are like that one day."

"You and Carlos are like that now."

I gently elbowed him in the arm and he chuckled at his remark. I kissed his cheek and then heard a woman's voice nearby.

"Kendall! Back so soon?"

"Camille!" He hugged a short brunette woman that looked to be only a few years older than us. She was very attractive and beside her was a tall handsome man with short hair. They both had big smiles on their faces, obviously happy to see Kendall again. It made me happy that Kendall had people to make his day better when he was at work.

"Camille, Jett, this is James. My fiancé."

Jett held out his hand and I shook it. "It's nice to finally meet you James."

I smiled, "It's nice to meet you too Jett."

I went to shake Camille's hand as well and she pulled me into a big hug. "Oh, I'm not much of a hand-shaker. Anybody that loves Kendall is a friend of mine!" I hugged her back and when we pulled away she looked me up and down. "Wow, Kendall. You did a good job. He is quite a handsome one."

I blushed and Kendall said, "Hey, that's my man. You have your own." He laughed and put an arm around my waist.

She chuckled, "I sure do. I wouldn't trade him for the world." They kissed each other and it was blatantly obvious that they were head over heels in love.

Kendall and I both 'Awed' them before they pulled apart.

Camille picked up a menu and gently hit Kendall with it. They both laughed and talked for a few more minutes before Jett interrupted.

"Camille, I'm sure these guys are starving. We should let them sit down and order now."

"Oh right! Of course! Sit anywhere you'd like!"

Kendall took me over to a booth in the back corner of the diner and I sat down with him across from me.

After a few minutes of looking over the menu, Camille came over and took our orders. Once she was far enough away so she couldn't hear me I leaned over to Kendall.

"They're so in love."

He nodded, "Yea. They're only two years older than us. They've been married since they were 18. It's really cute actually. They said they knew they loved each other on their first date."

"Wow. Do they have any kids or what?"

Kendall shook his head, "Sadly they haven't been able to have any. They've tried but no luck. They might not be able to have any of their own."

I frowned thinking about how sad I would be if my wife and I couldn't have our own baby. Of course Kendall and I were getting married but it was a given that we would either have to adopt or get a surrogate. Kendall put his hand over mine and looked into my eyes.

"Don't feel bad. They knew that it would be hard for them. They're a great couple though and nothing is going to break them down. Knowing them they'll probably keep trying until it happens. And if it doesn't they both like the idea of adoption."

I smiled at him and put my other hand on top of his. Kids, that's a subject that I've been wanting to talk about with Kendall and now seemed like the opportune moment.

I took a deep breath, "So what about our kids?"

He looked taken aback by the question but managed to ask, "What do you mean?"

"Like are we going to have them? Do you want any kids? We haven't talked about any of this and I kind of feel like we should've talked about it before I even proposed. I couldn't wait though and even if you don't want a kid then that's ok. I'm not going to leave you if you don't want any."

Kendall laughed a bit before saying, "Slow down James. So many questions."

I blushed knowing that I was probably talking too fast for him to even answer what I had asked him. I didn't want to get carried away but when it came to kids it was hard for me not to.

"Sorry."

"It's ok; just go a little bit slower this time."

I nodded, "Ok, do you want any kids?"

He smiled, "Yea, I don't know how many I want yet but I would like to have at least one. It's part of our dream. Remember?"

I smiled, "Yea. That's a nice dream." I started to daydream about our future when I remembered that I was trying to have a serious conversation with Kendall. "Next question is, would you rather have a boy or a girl?"

"Hmm…I guess that depends."

"On what?"

"Well if we do the whole surrogate thing then I wouldn't really care as long as our kid ended up looking like you, which is what's going to happen in that case. But if we adopted I think I would rather have a girl. What about you?"

"I would want a boy and a girl, an older boy and a younger girl. So if we did surrogate I would want to do that first before we adopted because if we ended up getting a little girl then I would want to adopt an older boy. Only like a year older though."

He smiled, "You've really been thinking about this haven't you?"

I blushed and nodded, "Yea. It's been running through my mind quite a bit lately. I can't help it."

"Alright then I'm thinking you have already thought of names for them. Is that correct?"

"I like Callie or Audrey for a girl and Alexander or Preston for a boy."

"I like those too."

"Really?"

"Yea, a lot."

I smiled and when I looked up Camille was standing there with our food. It looked delicious and I couldn't wait to finally taste some fresh food from the diner.

"If you need anything just let me know, ok?"

We both nodded and she happily walked away to go talk to Jett.

Kendall POV:

Our lunch was very wonderful and I was so happy how this day had turned out. If James hadn't taken off of work like I told him not to do I would be still moping around in our apartment watching 'Friends' re-runs with Mocha. Speaking of Mocha, I was really growing fond of her. She always greeted me nicely and when I was lying on the couch she would come and sit on my lap. I thought she was really cute. Carlos loved her so much it was ridiculous which made Logan happy. I remembered that I wanted to get her some toys from the store when we were out so when we were paying at the counter I turned to James.

"Hey, can we go to the pet store and get Mocha some toys?"

He smiled, "You're falling in love with her aren't you? You better watch out. Carlos will kill you for that dog."

We both laughed and when we were ready to leave Camille gave the both of us hugs and Jett shook our hands. I told them that I would be in for lunch soon and we were on our way. When James stepped outside he realized it was raining and took off his jacket.

"James I don't need your jacket. I'm ok."

Of course he ignored me and made me put it on anyway. Which actually made me really happy because I loved how much he cared about me. He always made me smile and that was the best thing ever. Every day was better with him there, I couldn't help but look forward to the weekends that I got to spend with him.

We made it to the pet store and James was pretty much soaked. He shook his hair like a dog when he got inside and the lady at the counter laughed at him.

"You fit in well here."

He laughed, "Thank you."

"Do you need help with anything?"

"Oh no. We're just going to pick up some toys and be on our way."

She nodded and we went off on our own to find some toys that Mocha would enjoy. We decided to get her a tug-a-war rope, a little fox with a squeaker in it, and a few tennis balls that would actually fit in her mouth. I thanked James for coming with me and by the time we left the store it had stopped raining. I tried to give his jacket back to him but he politely declined and insisted that I could still get sick. I realized that it was getting a tad chilly outside and was glad that he didn't take it back. I think he just knew that I really didn't want to take it off.

We got back to the apartment at about 5:30pm. I hadn't even realized that we were out for that long and apparently James didn't either.

"So what should I make us for dinner tonight?"

I looked up at him, "We just ate."

"Yea, but I know you and you're going to get hungry before we go to bed so you should just answer the question."

I laughed because yea, I was going to be hungry by bed time and he just knew me so well.

"Hmm…Can we have breakfast for dinner?!"

He chuckled, "Sure Babe. Anything for you."

"Yes!"

I sat down on the couch and yelled, "Get over here and sit with me! I miss you!"

I heard him laugh, "Can't a man pee without being ridiculed?"

"No!"

He walked out of the bathroom and pulled me up off of the couch and sat down. Then he pulled me onto his lap and I snuggled into his chest. He grabbed a blanket off of the back of the couch and covered us up with it. We turned on 'Friends' and I was happy that for once I wasn't watching these re-runs alone. I closed my eyes and imagined us lying just like this with our kids on the floor in front of us watching 'Friends' with them. I smiled and looked up at James. He was smiling too and I could bet that he was thinking of the same thing.

"I love you, Jamesy."

"I love you too, Sweetie."

I snuggled in closer to him and he kissed the top of my head. Yea, I could definitely get used to days like this.
