That Night
I plopped down on the couch and handed the bowl of popcorn to Kendall. Kendall, Carlos, Selena and I were watching some zombie movie.
"I hope a zombie doesn't eat my brain."Selena said holding her head.
"If one does, then I'll save you honeybunch."Carlos said hugging her.
"Don't worry, zombies eat brains. You're safe."I said smiling at them. They just nodded. I rolled my eyes. Then Demi and Logan came bursting through the door.
"Hey guys. We're back from Texas."Demi said. I stood up and hugged her.
"Hey, happy you're back." I said pulling away.
"Yea. And I'm so sorry that I couldn't be there for your birthday."
"No it's fine. What did your parents think of Logan?"
"What do you think? He's smart and adorable." she said smiling at him. I laughed.
"Can I talk to you though?"She whispered to me. I nodded. I followed her into the kitchen."I'll be making dinner tonight."Demi yelled over her shoulder. The boys howled and hooted. She was a great cook.
"What is it, Dems?" I asked sitting on the counter.
"When were you planning on telling me that you had a date with Kendall?" she asked kind of whispering to me.
My eyes widened as I began to stutter."W-What are you talking about?"
"Don't give me that bull. Miley texted me."
"I told her like an hour ago!"
"She's a chatter-box. Now spill!"
"It wasn't even a date. He just took me to the beach, we watched the sunset together and had an ice cream fight. That's all."
Demi rolled her eyes. "Sure. You're right. That's totally not a date. No can't be, because watching the sunset isn't romantic and having an ice cream fight isn't adorable." She said sighing afterwards.
"Sometimes you can be so clueless, Em." She said patting my shoulder.
"Look, I know Kendall doesn't like me because we have to good of a friendship to ruin by dating each other."I said. Demi threw her head back and sighed. Frustrated I guess.
"Emily, why can't you two just admit that you have feelings for each other?"
"Because we don't have feelings for each other."
Demi rolled her eyes and crossed her arms over her chest. The fight was over.
"Now if you'll excuse me, I have a movie to finish."I said jumping off the counter and walking to the couch.
The Next Day
He grabbed her by the waist and she smiled intertwining her fingers with his. He kissed the back of her head. She turned around with a huge smile on her face.
"I missed you so much Drew." She said hugging him. (Drew Van Acker-Jason- from Pretty Little Liars)
"Me too, Em. So sorry I missed your birthday. You know how my schedule is." he said.
"It's alright. I kind of knew from the start that dating a celebrity would be hard. But you're just too precious to lose." She said kissing his cheek.
"You are too, Em."He said kissing her forehead.
She blushed lightly."Come on, I bet the guys are dying to see you." she said walking with him all the way to Palm Woods. When they got there everyone was happy to see him. Except Kendall.
'What's up with him?' Emily thought. But she just shrugged it off and continued to talk with everyone else. When the boys started to talk about guy stuff, she just sat with Kendall on the couch.
Emily's POV
"Hey." I said. He scooted over and continued to watch some game that was playing. "Is everything okay?" I asked.
"Yea. Everything's fine." He said.
"You sure? Are you mad about something?"
"Nope."
I sighed."Kendall, there's obviously something wrong. Just tell me. I'm your friend."I said lightly pushing him.
"Hey, Em."I turned around to see Drew half way out the door. "The guys and I are gonna go shoot some hoops."He said.
I smiled."Yea, OK."
James pooped his head back in."You gonna be alright, man?"
Kendall just nodded and just like that, everyone was gone. Now it was just Kendall and I.I sighed looking back at Kendall.
"We're all alone now. Can you please tell me what's going on?"I pleaded biting my lip. He turned to me and put his hand on my leg. I looked down at his hand.
"What are you-"I got cut off. Kendall's lips. They were on mine! I felt a shiver go down my spine. He rubbed my knee slightly. I pulled away biting my lip. Trying to keep from smiling. But I was unsuccessful. I felt my cheeks burn. He put his hand on my cheek smiling.
"You don't know how long I've wanted to do that."He said rubbing my cheek. I tried to speak but the more he rubbed the more shivers down my spine. He kissed me again. I could feel him smiling. This kiss wasn't long but it felt real. More real than when I kiss Drew. I pulled away.
"That was…"I began.
"Amazing?"I nodded smiling. When we leaned in someone came in.
"Hey!"Kendall and I stood up to see who it was. It was James.
Kendall and I started to speak at the same time. Saying things like 'We were not doing anything' and 'Please don't tell Drew'.
James rolled his eyes. I guess he couldn't hear us."Have you seen my water bottle?"I looked at Kendall sighing a breath of relief. James saw it and rushed out of the room.
"That was close."Kendall said."But you know, Em…I have something for you."
"What?"
"Just follow me."He said taking my hand. He took me into his room. He made me sit on the floor and he sat on the bed. He grabbed his guitar.
"I've been thinking about you since yesterday and I made this at like three in the morning. I really hope you like it, Em."I smiled.
Cute by Stephen Jerzak
Kendall, Emily, Both
Your eyes are blue like the ocean
And baby I'm lost out at sea
Did the sun just come out or did you smile at me
I've been trying to ask you but I can't seem to speak
Was it love at first sight 'cause I walked by last week.
I'm singing Fa la la la la...
Your lips look so lonely
Would they like to meet mine
You are the one that I've been hoping to find
You're so sweet that you
Put Hershey's out of business
Can I have a photograph to show my friends that
Angels truly exist.
I'm singing Fa la la la la...
You're as cute as a button
the things you do sure are something
Are you running out of breath
from running through my head, all night.
Is there something in your eye
Oh wait, it's just a sparkle
Can you get a little closer
And help me out a little bit
I scraped my knee falling' for you
But baby a kiss will do.
I'm singing Fa la la la la la...
I sat on the bed next to him and took the paper next to him. I smiled and sang.
You're as cute as a button
the things you do sure are something
Are you running out of breath
from running through my head, all night.
I'm falling in love
And wouldn't I like to think so
And every night I look at the stars out my window
And I hope I can see
The one that we saw together
It was just you and me and honestly
I'll look for that star forever.

And I hope I can see
He looked at me and smiled.

I smiled at Kendall. But then I frowned. What was I doing? I'm dating Drew. This reminded me of betrayal. This led to me thinking 'You're just like John.' Betraying somebody you love. On my mother's death bed. James and I were there to see it. We heard him loud and clear.
'I will take care of them. I promise.' He even cried. Pretending of course.
"You okay?"Kendall asked snapping me back to reality.
"Uh…yea. I just need to use the bathroom."I said standing. I mumbled to myself. I was mumbling how I would never want to be like him. Then I thought about how he lied to my mother and I got teary. I turned into the kitchen and grabbed the kitchen knife. I walked to the bathroom. Smiling and waving at Kendall.
I closed the door behind me. I rolled up my sleeve. I looked at the word 'disgusting'. This was going to hurt like hell. I began to carve a new word into my bruised skin. I held my breath trying not to yell or cry. I kept cutting and cutting and and deeper. I looked at my arm. 'Betrayal'.
I let the blood drip from my arm. I was starting I heard Kendall knock on the door. After a while he began to pound. Until he finally found his way in.
"K-Kendall?"
"Em?"He looked down at my arm. I fell into his arms and he yelled.
"Emily!"
And then…I blacked out.
