Okay. I have absolutely nothing to say except I know this story doesn't follow a bunch of medical stuff. I'll explain more at the end of the story; otherwise I'd give the story away here. And I still have no clue how to play hockey.


14. Smile

"You guys know Mrs. Knight doesn't like us playing hockey in the house." Logan said, watching his three friends playing hockey.

James shot the puck to Carlos while Kendall looked at Logan. "Dude, we know. That is why we make sure she doesn't know we played hockey."

"But what if one of you gets hurt?"

Kendall scoffed, and lowered the mask of his hickey helmet. "We're all super protected; none of us are going to get hurt." Logan just nodded and walked into the kitchen to get a water bottle. Kendall shrugged and returned to the game.

"Kendall!" Carlos yelled and passed the pick to him.

"Got it!" Kendall got the puck and turned to shot. He hit the puck and it flew, literally. The puck lifted off the ground, flying through the air, heading straight for- "Logan!" Kendall yelled.

Logan turned around, wondering why his name was being yelled. He immediately saw the black object heading towards him, but couldn't move fast enough. The puck hit him straight on and he fell to the ground.

"Logan!" Kendall yelled again, skating over to the boy. He had no obvious signs of injury, but laid there on his back. "Logan, buddy, are you okay?" Kendall asked, holding his hand out to help him up.

Logan looked at Kendall with tear filled eyes before quickly getting up, without Kendall's help, and running back into the kitchen. "Logan?" Kendall asked, quickly following him.

He watched in shock as Logan bent over the sink, spitting blood into it. Carlos and James soon appeared by his side, both just staring too.

After a couple of second, Logan grabbed one of the washcloths under the sink and held it up to his mouth. He looked at the guys, tears falling down his face rapidly. "Logan?" Kendall asked again, unsure of what to say.

Logan just shook his head and pushed past the guys, grabbing the keys to the BTR mobile, and walking out the door.

Kendall quickly began taking his skates off, cursing himself for tying them as tight as possible. James and Carlos were doing the same, and Carlos got his off first, bolting through the door. James followed quickly, being the second fastest. After almost a minute of trying to get his off, Kendall just gave up and skated after his friends.

By the time Kendall reached the lobby, his two friends were walking back in. "He's already gone." James said.

"What do you think I did?" Kendall asked, feeling severely guilty.

James shrugged. "Kind of looked like you knock out one of his teeth."

"Oh." Kendall still felt bad, but they had had teeth knocked out before. "Logan probably just wanted to get it fixed it right away." He said, James and Carlos nodded. "Let's get back to the apartment before my mom comes back." The boys nodded again and went back to apartment.


Mrs. Knight was extremely mad. She had just gotten a text from Logan, who was currently at the dentist. She told the boys not to play hockey in the house, and now looked what happened. "What happened?" She called when she walked into 2J.

Kendall, who had been playing a video game with Carlos, hit pause and walked over. "What happened to what?" He asked insistently.

"I just got a text from Logan, who is currently at the dentist, because of a hockey injury." She gave Kendall her best mad-mom glare.

Kendall felt one of his eyebrows raise. Logan had told on them? Logan would never have told on them unless it was for a reason. "What's he doing at the dentist?" He asked.

"Were you playing hockey after I told you again not to?" She asked, ignoring Kendall's question.

Kendall nodded, knowing they were busted. "Yeah, we were. I accidently hit Logan with the puck. What's he doing at the dentist?" He asked again.

Mrs. Knight just looked at him, her glare making him uncomfortable. "He can tell you when he gets back." With that she turned and walked away, leaving a very confused Kendall.


Logan stopped in front of the 2J door. He sighed, wiping away the tears that were still falling down his face. His mouth still hurt a lot, but he would get used to it. He took another deep breath and opened the door, slowly walking inside.

The last thing he wanted to do was talk to his friend, so of course they were right there when he walked through.

"Logan, finally." Kendall said, walking up to him. Logan just waved to him. "Listen, I'm so sorry I hit you. Did I knock out one of your teeth, because that's what it looked like?" Logan just nodded, staring at the floor.

"Awesome, let's see your new tooth!" Carlos said, running up to Logan. Logan took a step back and started shaking his head. "Why not?" Carlos took another step towards Logan, putting a hand on his shoulder. "Did they put it in wrong or something?" Again Logan shook his head, but he didn't look up from the floor.

"Logan, what's wrong?" Kendall said, walking up to Logan, who had started crying again. "Why won't you talk to us?" Kendall asked, worry growing.

"I'll talk to you." Logan said, staring at the floor and barely opening his mouth.

"Look at us and talk." Kendall said, earning another head shake from Logan. "What's wrong Logie, why won't you-"

"Shtop." Logan said, again barely opening his mouth. It took Kendall a second to realize he said 'stop.' "Don't laugh." He said.

"Why would we laugh?" James asked, also joining the group.

Logan looked up at him. He sighed and gave his friends a small smile. It was enough to expose the gray wires running along his teeth. "Because my jaw is whired shut." He said slowly, trying his best to make his words clear.

Kendall's eyes widened. "W-why?" He asked.

Logan looked back at him, this time trying to give him a real smile, but failing. "I have a shmall break in my jaw." When Logan saw Kendall's face drop, he added, "Nothing bad! I pra-pra ugh I shwear. I only need my jaw whired shut for 10 days, tin it whill be as good as new!" He gave Kendall another odd smile, but it only made Kendall feel worse.

"I broke your jaw?" He asked, looking at James and Carlos, anywhere but Logan.

Logan shook his head. "No, you frahctured it. Bhig difference!" He thought that would've made Kendall feel better, but it looked like it only made him feel worse. "Kendhall, it is fine. Gushavo ish away on buishness anyway. By the time he getsh back, everything will be fine...I'll be rhight back." Logan got up and pushed through his friends, as they had surrounded him.

"I broke his jaw." Kendall mumbled.

"No, you frahctured it." Carlos said with a laugh.

Kendall looked at him, causing him to back into James. "Not funny dude."

A couple of seconds later, a notebook hit him in the back of the head.

Stop beating yourself up. It is FINE! I'm alive, I'll be fine in a couple days, just relax. And it is pretty funny.

Logan returned and looked at Kendall. "Was it necessary to hit me with a notebook?" Kendall asked him. Logan nodded, a wide -as wide as you can get with your jaws wired together- smile.

"Your smile is kind of freaking me out." James said.

Logan started laughing, so he used one hand to cover his mouth while he used the other to write a note.

Sorry.

James smiled and shrugged. "Guess I'll get use to it." Logan lowered his hand, revealing his wirey smile. "Good thing we don't have any BTR things planned." Logan chuckled and nodded.

"I'm sorry Logan." Kendall said.

Logan sighed and wrote on the notebook.

You say sorry one more time I swear I'll punch you.

"Sorry." Kendall laughed, earning a punch in the arm from Logan. "Dude that hurt." He said rubbing his arm.

Good. I'm going to go make a smoothie.

Kendall nodded and Logan walked away. "That smile will take some getting used to." Carlos said when Logan was gone.

Kendall nodded. "Yeah...who else wants a smoothie?" James and Carlos raised their hands and they followed Logan into the kitchen.


Hmmmm? Is that a good stopping point? I know it was kind of bad; I seem to have lost my writing skill... Anyway I'm thinking about adding a part about how the 10 days go.

Okay, yeah I know a lot of the medical facts are wrong, but oh well. I did a lot of research for this, but I didn't use any of it...

So review. I will return to my mom's at 8 o' clock central time, so hopefully Drowning will be up sometime after that.

Please review.

Ella.
