He stopped hearing Fox's small steps as James kept his hand on the wall the entire time he walked down the stairs. There was no rail so he placed a hand on the wall and carefully placed a foot on each step so he won't fall. The door closed a bit on its own leaving him with no light in the darkened room, he heard a scratch and was relieved when he saw his puppy pushing a door open, lightening his path. Quickly he went down the stairs and stepped through door, there were metal tables lined up against the wall with glass and metal cabinets on top each with strange objects that he didn't recognize, he did notice that most of them were sharp and were contained with stuff you find in a doctor's office. There are five metal tables in the middle of the room; one of them was being occupied by an object that was covered with a white sheet. He swallowed nervously and quickly turned to see Fox walk to another door, curious he watched him scratch the door trying to get it open.

Walking toward it he twisted the knob opening the door and watch Fox go in, he followed after him and was surprised to see him sitting on the ground his tail wagging in front of another metal table, it was also being occupied by an object covered in a white sheet. However there was only one in the medium size room, much to his relief.

He turned to his left and was shocked at the first thing he saw, it was a picture of himself walking with a blonde holding sport bags and hockey sticks. There was another of him talking in the phone while holding a bitten apple, and another of him playing with Fox. The entire wall was covered of pictures of him; he scrunched his face in disgust and surprise when he found some naked ones too. There was a table against the picture filled wall and saw melted candles, dead flowers, some fresh ones, and papers filled with words, hearts, doodles, with L+J around them.

He held his stomach and covered his mouth when he saw containers filled with a clear liquid and body parts, such as a liver, a heart, parts of a brain, kidneys, and more.

"What the fuck is this?" he asked to himself. He turned his back on the human body parts and saw cabinets and supplies straight from a science fiction movie. There were notes and formulas covered on the walls, knives and other strange supplies in the cabinets and containers filled with smaller body parts such as eyes, fingers, and toes.

He swallowed the bile that was rising from his throat and gasped when he heard a loud sound disturbing the silence. He frowned when he realized Fox barked and saw him grab the white sheet from the object in his mouth and began to pull.

"No Fox! Don't!" It was too late; he pulled the sheet until it was halfway on the floor. "Dammit Fox, look what you've…"

He faltered when he turned toward the object on the table. His heart stopped and felt all of his blood leave his body, he felt as if he was dunk in a pool full of ice cold water and was sudden blown by a cold gust if wind, his jaw dropped in shock and his eyes widened at the sight in front of him.

"This is impossible, it can't be real." He said to himself taking steps back until he was against a wall and slid down to the ground.

On the table was an exact replica of himself, except he was pale white, his hair was lost of color, and he seemed to be sleeping. But he knew better, he was dead, his chest wasn't rising and he was completely still like a statue.

He saw a figure in the corner of his eye, afraid it was Logan he looked up to see his hallucination again, only he wasn't dead, he seemed more alive, more like James. His color came back a bit, his eyes were near his hazel color, and the cut on his neck wasn't bleeding anymore.

"I don't understand any of this," he said, desperately wanting an answer.

"You will soon," he replied with his own voice.

His other self raised his arm toward him, before James could take move back he touched the temple that was still bandaged and fell on his side, his eyes scrunched in pain as he felt a searing hot white pain in his head as he screamed.


"It's all my fault!" he cried into Logan's chest as the brunette held him close.

"It's not; you didn't know the gate was fully closed you shouldn't guilt yourself because of an accident."

"But if I did, he would still be here."

"Shh, come on let's go inside I don't want you getting a cold."

"But what about Fox," he sobbed.

"I'll take care him later, alright?"

James didn't say anything only cried as Logan pulled him toward James's mansion leaving the puppy's dead body outside underneath his favorite blanket.


"I have a surprise for you," Logan smiled as he stood in the hallway in front of James after he called him to come over to the morgue. James had been depressed over losing his best friend, he stopped crying a week ago after Fox's death, but missed him dearly since he was the only family and friend he had in his lonely mansion. "What is it?"

He watched the brunette open the door leading to where the bodies was held and was surprised to see a small Alaskan Klee Klai walking toward him with his tail wagging back and forth. James picked it up and held it in his arms a small smile forming on his lips. "You got me a new puppy?"

The brunette shook his head after he closed the door and walked toward him, "even better, look at his collar."

James did as he was told and his brows furrowed in confusion when he read the small tag, FOX was written in bold letters, fingering the collar he realized it was the same one Fox had when he buried him.

"I don't get it."

"Ever heard of the movie Frankenweenie?"

He nodded, "imagine the movie in real life." Logan smiled and looked at the pup in his arms.

James did the same, his eyes widening in realization, understanding what he meant. The puppy barked at him and licked his cheek; he turned back to Logan to see his dimpled smile he grew to love. However he felt a sense of worry and fear grow in his chest when he saw an almost manic look in his chocolate brown eyes.

"How?"

"It's easy really, it's a lot like the movies, but I added a few things toward it and brought Fox back for you," James's heart couldn't help but skip a beat at his words a part of it was because of shock and the other because it was romantic…sort of.

"This is….really sweet of you, but," he swallowed nervously before he spoke again. "Aren't you messing with stuff that you shouldn't be messing with?"

"With science and…a few extra accessories, you can do anything."

James bit his lip as he placed the puppy back on the ground, "I have to go home."

"Don't you want to be with Fox now that he's back?" the brunette asked with a confused expression.

"Later, I have a project to work on with Kendall." He opened the door and was ready to go his car when he felt a hand on his.

"I'll call you later."

He nodded, "okay."


James began to distance himself after he found out about Logan's surprise. He would not go to the morgue often like he used to, to spend time with him and Fox. They would still make out and have sex, but James would mentally cringe when he felt Logan's hands on his skin after he knew he dealt with dead body parts. He didn't mind at first when he found he worked at the morgue, but when he was dealing with experiments that involves decaying flesh, he had a right to be freaked out. Logan would talk about how his experiments can help mankind and bring a whole new world to medicine and research curing diseases, at first he didn't mind until he began to become obsess about it.

He never knew the sweet brunette he loved could have a…abnormal mind, the brunette was smart, but going against the laws of nature was going over the line. He had to end it. He had to end their relationship; he couldn't deal with having a boyfriend that dealt with those kinds of…interests.

James made a call to the brunette explaining that they needed to have a talk so they made a time and date to meet. He went to the morgue on his car and went inside, he ignored the puppy that was barking and jumping around him as he went upstairs toward the balcony.

He felt his heart clench when he saw Logan with a suit next to a candle lit dinner with soft music doming from his stereo, "hey Logan."

He smiled oblivious to his slight shaky voice, "hey James." He walked to him and tried to give him a hug and a kiss, but he took a step back away from him. The brunette frowned at his actions, "what's wrong?"

"I have something to tell you."

"Me too."

"You go first," James said wanting to get it over with it as quickly as possible.

Logan took out a small box from his pocket and showed it to James making his chest clench painfully and his heart beat furiously in his rib cage. "I wanted to give it you during dinner, but I couldn't wait any longer." He opened the box to reveal a gorgeous diamond ring with a gold band, "I love you James with all my heart and soul, I want to-."

"No!"James yelled. He closed the box and pushed it toward him, "I'm sorry Logan, but I can't do this anymore."

He furrowed his brows in confusion, "I don't understand."

"Logan the thing is I don't want to see you anymore," he said softly not wanting to break up with him too harshly.

"W-why?" he said with a bewildered expression. "I thought we were in love, we were happy together."

He shook his head, "you were happy, I…don't feel the spark between us anymore."

Logan narrowed his eyes at him when he noticed James was trying not to look into his, "You're lying, what's the real reason for this."

He turned to him and looked at him straight in his eyes, "I don't want to be with you anymore, Logan I'm breaking up with you."

The brunette felt his heart shatter in his chest when he saw his hardened hazel eyes, he actually meant it. He tried to reach for his hand, but he took a step back and began to walk to the door, but quickly grabbed his shoulder, "what did I do wrong? I thought everything was perfect, I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you."

James removed his hand from his shoulder and began to walk out, "wait! James!"

He ran after him and quickly stood in his path, "Logan; please-,"

His eyes widened when he was cut off by his lips, Logan wrapped his arms around his waist and thrust his tongue through his lips into his mouth and caressed his wet muscle. James wanted to kiss back and feel his hands roam his body, but he remembered the main reason he can't be with him and pushed him away.

"Tell me you didn't feel a spark," Logan demanded his answer.

"Let me go Logan," he said trying to break free from his hold.

"Please James," he pleaded. "Tell me what I did wrong. I love you James, please take back what you said, I'll change and we can be happy again."

He shook his head and was able to escape and go down the stairs and walk toward the door, "James please, don't leave me; I love you."

Not wanting to look back he quickened his pace, he stopped when he heard a small squeak and looked down to see Fox wagging his tail with a squeaky toy in his mouth. He reached his hand to him wanting to take him with him, but remembered he was an experiment, an innocent animal that fell into the hands of a madman. Taking his hand back he quickly opened the door and left heading to his car and leaving the morgue.

He didn't notice the brunette on his knees sobbing begging him to come back or Fox sitting on the porch with his squeaky toy still in his mouth.


"I can't believe you were dating for two years and you didn't tell us," Carlos said with a sad expression.

James looked away unable to look into the latino's eyes, he was currently in his friend's house with Carlos and Kendall. He called them for a talk while he drove saying it was an emergency; they were currently sitting in the blonde's living room with a hot chocolate in his hands. "I wanted to tell you guys, but you were always busy being together and being happy I couldn't."

"Bullshit," Kendall said as he was sitting next to the latino with an arm wrapped around shoulders, "the only reason you didn't tell us was because you didn't want us to be protective and call that bitch of a mother of yours."

"Kendall!" Carlos glared at his boyfriend.

"No; he's right," James said, "my mother is a bitch and you guys would have been a pain in my ass, if I told you."

"You broke up with him, he would be sad, eat sweets and then move on," Kendall said with a shrug.

"I wish," James said his foot tapping the floor nervously. "I think he's the obsessive type."

"What makes you think that?" Carlos asked.

"He saw me talking with another man and thought I was cheating on him and nearly locked me in his room."

His friend's eyes widened at him, "and you thought this wasn't strange at all?" Kendall asked.

He shrugged, "it wasn't at the time, I thought it was pretty awesome that he was really jealous and I was the center of attention, but not anymore."

He groaned, "you had to pick the weird ones."


After their break-up, James had to change his cell phone number and spent majority of his time with his friends so he won't be alone at home. James began to freak out after Logan snuck into his house and tried to get him back, but quickly left after he threatened to call the cops. Even Kendall and Carlos began to worry and started to think about moving to a different city or state to get away from him. Carlos tried to convince James to get a restraining order or call his parents for some help, but he was too stubborn to do it claiming he can handle his situation on his own. The last straw was when Kendall and James nearly ended up in the hospital after Logan was able to tie Kendall on a tree several feet off the ground so there won't be any interference when the brunette tried to talk to James.

"Let's go on a vacation," Carlos said a week after the tree incident. "We've been through too much shit and we need a break from all this drama."

"I'm in," Kendall said, immediately standing up and walking toward his room to pack.

"Wait! I haven't told you where we're going!"

He sighed when he heard the slam of a door.

"I don't know," James said with a frown, "I don't want to be a third wheel."

Carlos clasped his hands together and pouted at him, "please James, we'll have a great time together and we'll be away from Logan."

He groaned when he gave him the puppy eye look, he mentally grimaced when the thought of Fox came into his mind. "Fine, where are we going?"

"Camping!"

Oh shit, James thought, at the same time they heard a loud crash in the blonde's room.


I am so so so sorry, i have been extremely busy, but I was able to put this together and am now working on the next chapter. Hope you like it!
