A/N: Wow, I'm really happy that you all enjoyed chapter 7 more than I did. I still don't know what to think about it but apparently it was goods I started college back up and the work load is more than I predicted not to mention that my best friend is going to be returning home from the military soon so updating will be a little complicated but I will do my best for all of you. Also, sorry that it has taken so long for me to update. I have had writers block and I'm working through it but I have a general idea of what I want to happen in this chapter, so we'll see how it goes. Anyways, here is chapter eight.
Chapter Eight: Unexpected Surprises
For the first time in Kendall's life he was excited for school. He got to see his new boyfriend. Kendall still couldn't believe that it actually happened. When he woke up he had hoped that it wasn't all just one big dream but Logan and he texted quite a bit as they both got ready for school. Kendall also didn't feel scared and even though he didn't know why he did know that it was all thanks to Logan. Today was the first day in weeks that Kendall hadn't cried and Kendall hoped that it would stay like that for quite some time.
It was all thanks to Logan that Kendall was the happy person he was today. He had surprised his mom and his sister when he came downstairs this morning and shoved his face full of anything that he could. Jennifer and Katie didn't know what was going on with Kendall but they weren't going to question it. Kendall wanted to tell them, his friends and the whole world that the person that he loves more than anything else loves him back.
It was when Katie and he arrived at school before Katie decided to mention anything about it. Kendall was about to get out but Katie reached over and locked his door.
"Um, Katie?" Kendall asked not sure what to think about this.
"Not that I'm complaining, but why are you so happy? Right after everything with your tree house and with dad you came down the stairs at Logan's smiling and now you're still all happy. Are you and Logan together or something?" Katie asked and then went wide eyed as she made the connection. "Oh my god, Kendall! When were you going to tell me?"
"Logan hasn't come out yet and we were going to wait to tell people when he was ready." Kendall said smiling at his little sister. He knew that they were going to wait but Kendall was glad that someone knew. Kendall just needed to remember that it hasn't been a week yet so Logan probably wasn't ready to flaunt their relationship in front of everybody. Kendall also knew that Logan was concerned about what people would think on the hockey team. He knew that James knew that Kendall was gay but out of the entire hockey team it was only James who knew.
"I'm happy for you big bro, but do you think that it was the right time to start a relationship?"
"I don't really know but I don't really care. Logan makes me forget about everything with dad. I'm not scared when I'm around him." Kendall loved Katie's expression. It was filled with shock and happiness.
"That's great big bro" Katie said ecstatic for her brother. Not only did he get the person that he loved but the person he loved made him forget all about the pain that Kendall's father had caused him.
"So, can we go now? I want to go meet up with my boyfriend" Kendall still loved to say that and he also loved it when Logan said it.
Kendall and Katie grabbed their stuff and headed into the school. Kendall knew that Logan would hang out with his friends before heading to class so Kendall thought it would be a nice gesture if he went and hung out with Logan's friends for a few minutes. Kendall walked to the science wing where he saw his new boyfriend sitting on the ground with Carlos and a couple of other people. Kendall snuck up behind the group and went right behind Logan and covered his eyes.
"Guess who." Kendall said as Logan smiled.
"Gee, I don't know. Would it happen to be my new sexy boyfriend?" Logan asked and surprised Kendall. Kendall knew that Logan wanted to not be open about this, but then again he was with his friends.
"We have a winner." Kendall said before sitting next to Logan.
"What are you doing here Kendall?" Logan didn't mind at all but he was curious on why Kendall decided to pay him a visit when they would see each other in a few minutes. "Not that I'm complaining."
"I thought that I would stop by before class so I can have more time to talk with my new amazing boyfriend." Kendall said, causing Logan to blush. Kendall then looked at Logan, not sure if it would be ok if they kissed so he hoped that Logan would get the hint that Kendall wanted to.
"Come here" Logan said pulling Kendall into a kiss. This was an unexpected yet great surprise. Kendall pulled away and his smile grew even more. "I told them a little bit ago. They saw the hickey that you decided to leave on my neck. Carlos saw last night though." Kendall blushed a little at this. Logan then leaned close to Kendall so he could whisper in his ear. "You look cute when you blush." This made Kendall blush a little more before he turned his face toward Logan and pecked him on the lips.
"You two are so cute" Camille said in awe.
"Thanks" Kendall said before looking at the time. "Oh, I hope you don't mind but Katie knows about us. I didn't tell her, she just put two and two together." He wondered what Logan was thinking.
"That's alright Ken." Kendall let out a breath of relief he didn't even know that he was holding in. Logan then looked at the time seeing that it was time for Kendall and him to head to AP Bio. "We should head to class." Kendall nodded and stood up, holding out a hand to help Logan up. Logan gladly took it standing up before interlocking his fingers with Kendall's, causing the blond to blush yet again.
Once they started to walk away Kendall looked at Logan, wondering why Logan was doing all of this. "Not that I'm not enjoying this, but I thought that you wanted to keep us a secret for now."
"I don't want to keep you or us a secret from anybody. I love you and I want everybody to know that I finally have you after all these years." Kendall stopped them and pulled Logan into a deep kiss. Logan really wanted to kiss back but they needed to get to class.
"Do you want your parents to know?"
"Yeah, I really do but I want you there for when I tell them although I think that they already know."
"What makes you say that?"
"Well this morning my parents asked if I was excited to see you and they had huge grins on their face." Logan was thinking about that morning and how awkward that was with his parents. He wanted to tell them then but he wanted Kendall to be with him so they can tell both of their families at the same time, even though that Katie now knew already.
"Well at least you know that they won't have a problem with it, even though I knew they wouldn't." Logan smiled at that. He really did have amazing parents and he was really happy that they were so accepting.
"Hey Ken, can we tell our families at the same time? I know Katie already knows but I still want her to be there."
"Anything you want." Kendall said as they walked into the AP Bio classroom and Mr. Williams was up in the front of the class signaling that he was going to start class early.
-Running Back to You-
James was bored out of his mind and now that Kendall and Logan were friends, well now dating, Kendall spent all of his time either at home or with Logan. James wasn't complaining though, he was happy that Kendall was happy and finally got the person he was in love with. James just hoped that he could someday find that kind of love.
The only person who was in the pretty boy's mind was the hyper Latino. James didn't know how to explain his feelings for Carlos, seeing how he liked girls but he also found himself finding guys hot too. Kendall said that James was probably bi sexual but that didn't help James. James had never been with a man or even thought about being with one until Carlos became his lab partner. The Latino was hard not to fall for. He was cute when he would be all hyper and his pout was adorable.
There was this big project that they needed to do for chemistry and that was how James got Carlos' number. Deciding that he needed to get over his nerves James thought that he would just call the Latino and see if he wanted to hang out. Oh god, what if he's doesn't think of me that way. What if he doesn't like guys in general? This is a bad idea James thought as the phone rang.
"Hello?"
"Hey Carlos, its James. I was bored and seeing how it was Friday I was wondering if you would like to hang out." James started; he really hoped that the Latino said no. "I know its last minute"
"It's ok James, but yeah I would like to hang out. Do you want to come over or have me go over to your place?" The Latino really wanted to see the inside James' house.
"Do you want to come over here? My mom is working so we get the whole house to ourselves." James was so nervous not just about asking the Latino this but also about being alone with him.
"Sounds fun. Text me your address and I'll be over there soon."
"Alright, see you soon." James then hung up, texting Carlos his address before quickly making everything in the house perfect for when Carlos arrived.
-Running Back to You-
Logan and Kendall had set up a dinner party for everyone to meet so they could reveal that they were now a couple. This time though it was going to be held at Logan's house because that's where they first got together a few days ago.
"So my mom wants to know what we're going to be eating." Kendall said to the phone he was holding next to his ear. He was talking to Logan about the plans for the dinner party.
"We're going to be having spaghetti and meatballs with garlic bread"
"Sounds delicious" Kendall loved Mrs. Mitchell's cooking, especially her famous garlic bread.
"Not as delicious as you" Kendall chocked on the drink that he had just swallowed. He had not expected that but it turned him on slightly.
"Tease" Kendall said and Logan laughed.
"I do what I can."
Kendall then heard his mom yell up the stairs for him. "Hey Logie, I got to go, but we'll be there soon. I love you."
"Love you too, and I'll see you when you get here."
"Bye Logie"
"Bye Ken" Kendall then hung up the phone. He still had butterflies in this stomach from when Logan said that he loved him. It had been a few days since they first said that they loved one another but Kendall couldn't get used to hearing it and nor did he want to. He never wanted hearing that to get old.
Jennifer said that she was going to drive everyone over there that way nothing happened like last time and Kendall couldn't just drive away. Kendall knew that nothing was going to happen tonight but he couldn't help but be annoyed with his mother.
After fifteen minutes of driving the Knights finally arrived at the Mitchell household. The three of them got out of the car and knocked on the door. Logan opened it up a second later welcoming them. Kendall walked in last, and when his mom wasn't looking gave Logan a quick peck on the lips.
"You sure you want to tell them."
"One hundred percent. I don't want to sneak around with you. You mean so much more to me than that." Kendall just wanted to pull Logan into another kiss but they were being called to the dining room.
"Guess it's time." Kendall said and Logan nodded. They both knew that their parents would accept it but it also meant that their doors would have to be open when the other was over.
They went to the dining room and took their seats. The food was then being passed around and the couple decided to wait until everybody had their food to say anything.
"Mom, dad, Mama Knight, Katie we have something that we need to tell you." Logan started and looked around to see all eyes on him. Logan then looked at Kendall, hoping that Kendall would say it. For some reason Logan was extremely nervous and he his mind went blank.
"Logan and I are now dating." Kendall said once he saw Logan's expression.
"Thank you for finally telling us." Joanna said looking at the two of them. "I am happy for the both of you."
"How long have you known?" Logan asked his mom.
"Honey, I've known that you've been in love with Kendall for years now. That's why I so confused on why you stopped being friends with him. I thought that the two of you would've started to date years ago."
"I also accidently let it slip that Kendall was in love with you" Jennifer said and Kendall's eyes went wide. "Don't worry honey, she only told Lucas so no reason to worry."
"No need to worry? You told the mom of the boy that I loved that I was in love with her son." Kendall said still in shock.
"Kendall, everybody knew that you two loved each other that is why we were all confused that you two stopped being friends." Katie said looking at her brother. "And Logan, if you break his heart I'm going to break you."
"I would never break Kendall's heart. I love him too much for that" Once Logan said all the females at the tabled awed and Kendall blushed before giving Logan a kiss on the cheek.
"I love you too."

Carlos had arrived at James' house but he was too scared to go in. What if Carlos slipped up and kissed James. James liked girls not guys and especially not him. Now Carlos knew what Logan felt like for all those years. After a few minutes of deep breathing Carlos knocked on James' door. It took a minute before James answered and Carlos' jaw nearly dropped when he saw him. The boy was wearing a white beater that showed off all his muscles and damn did that boy have some muscles.
"Hey" James said allowing Carlos to come inside. Carlos looked around, noticing that James came a family of wealth.
"Your house is really nice." Carlos said after a minute of looking around. The place was filled with all sorts of paintings and vases. "A lot better than my house."
"I bet your house is lovely and this is just a house, not much of a home some days." James said as he led Carlos into the family room. In the room was a sixty-five inch television with a cabinet full of movies and another cabinet full of video games. "So I was thinking that we could just play so video games or watch a movie or something."
"That sounds great." Carlos said still in shock from everything in James' house, including the pretty boy.
"Are you hungry or want anything to drink?" James asked wanting to make sure that Carlos was comfortable.
"Waters good" Carlos said smiling at James. "But can I come with you; I would love to see your kitchen."
James chuckled at this. "Of course you can." James said as they made their way to the kitchen. James got Carlos some water when they were in the kitchen as Carlos looked around. "Here you go." He said hanging the glass to Carlos. "Hey Carlos, can I tell you something?"
"Yeah" Carlos was curious on why James would ask that.
"Well, you see, I uh. Wow this is harder than I thought." James said before taking a deep breath. "I like you Carlos. I feel something when I'm with you that I have never felt before. I understand if you want to leave but I thought that I would let you know."
"Are you done?" James nodded. "James, I'm not going to leave. I like you too" Carlos said smiling at the brunette.
"Really? You're not just saying that?"
Instead of saying anything Carlos brought his lips to James'. Carlos loved that James kissed back, and god was he a good kisser. Carlos felt the spark that everybody talks about. When their need for air became too much they pulled away.
"I'm not just saying that. I like you James."
"Good, now let's go play some video games." James said leading them back into the family room.
-Running Back to You-
The dinner party had ended an hour ago and Kendall was forced to go home with his mom. Logan was so happy that they were all so accepting and that they were happy for them. Logan was also happy about how neither family had told them to leave their doors open. They knew that it would happen either way so there was no point in trying to stop it. Logan was slightly embarrassed to be talking about that with his parents and especially with Katie in the room.
Just as Logan was about to head upstairs he heard a knock on the door. Smiling, knowing that it was probably Kendall or Carlos, Logan made his way to the door. Logan opened up the door and his smile was gone. There was some weird man standing in front of him holding up a clipboard.
"Can I help you?" Logan asked not understanding what was going on.
"Are you Logan Mitchell?" the man asked.
"Yeah" Logan was concerned about what was happening.
"Well I have a flower delivery for you." Logan's face lit up as the man went to his van and pulled out a vase that had a dozen red roses. The man made his way back up to Logan and held out the clipboard. "Please sign" he said as Logan signed and took the flowers from the man. Logan set them on a table that was near the door and smelled them. He then noticed a note and smiled. Kendall is so sweet he said as he pulled the note out of the little envelope. His eyes then went wide with shock and the note fell to the floor.
Thought you would enjoy flowers to put on your lover's grave.
