Kendall's POV
"Owwwwwww! Ow! Damn it, Kendall!"
Having enough experience with broken noses, I told Piper we had two options;
1.)Take her to the ER, wait a few hours to be seen, and hope they can still reset it without re-breaking it
or
2.)let me reset it right now.
Obviously, she chose the second one.
... And she chose to do it without painkillers.
"Told you the Advil was a good idea," I muttered more to myself than her.
"Be nice. I'm broken, remember?" She pinched the bridge of her nose and tilted her head back. I handed her an icepack out of the freezer which she gratefully accepted.
"Listen, Piper… I'm… I'm really sorry."
"It's fine! I asked you to, remember?" She said it in a "duhhhh" tone.
"Not that…" I whispered.
"Oh." She pursed her lips, still staring at the ceiling. "I'm over it."
"Good to know." I hopped on the counter where I had made her sit so I wouldn't have to bend down to reach her nose. "We need to talk, though."
"About?" she sighed.
"You and Logan. You and James, too."
James's POV
Carlos was mad. Understatement of the year. Carlos was furious.
Furious at me for hitting Piper.
Furious at Logan for hitting me.
After he finished screaming at us, we all went downstairs to check on Piper.
Piper and Kendall were sitting on the counter.
"We need to talk, though." Kendall's voice was muffled behind the wall.
"About?" Piper said nasally.
"You and Logan. You and James."
The three of us stopped on the other side of the wall, ears pressed to it curiously.
"I wonder why he didn't say Carlos," I remarked bitterly.
"What?" Logan scream-whispered.
I filled him in quickly while Carlos rolled his eyes.
We all started to listen again.
"…I don't know what you want me to say, Kendall. It's complicated."
"Not too complicated to tell me. Now go. Start talking," he ordered.
"I don't know… I don't think they do either," Piper said.
"Piper… You act like you're James's girlfriend or something one second, and next thing I know you're in Logan's bed! You make ridiculously googly eyes at Carlos almost constantly and to be honest… it's incredibly confusing. Just friggin' pick one already!"
"I like them all, okay?" Piper shouted, leaving Kendall speechless.
It sounded like she was storming out.
Oh crap. She was storming out.
The three of us ducked into the living room, throwing ourselves on the couch and turning on the TV. Piper plopped down on the couch next to me, a bloody towel pressed to her nose. Kendall came in a minute later, sitting on one of the loveseats.
All five of us sat there thinking about what she just said.
None of us liked it.
