Kendall and Jo were sitting next to each other on the couch in the Palmwoods lobby. Kendall was fiddling with his thumbs while Jo rubbed his back. Kendall felt slightly uncomfertable. He was sitting next to a girl who claimed to be his girlfriend, while he remebered nothing. He was scared. One of his best friends, Kendall guessed it was James, kept saying it was his fault because he had pushed him. Kendall never felt so confusing in his whole life. All these stories made him so confusing. Jo told him that she was his first girlfriend but she had to leave to New Zealand to shoot three movies en had to leave Kendall behind for three years. That's when Lucy came into the picture, since Jo didn't know the full story Lucy told him everything. He hadn't liked her at first because she claimed BTR didn't rock. Afterwards they became friends and Kendall had saved her more then one time. He helped her figure out her ex-boyfriend Beau hadn't changed a thing. She then asked him to join her at the pool to which he agreed. They then kissed in the elevator, but when the doors opened Jo appeared to be back and Kendall had to decide between her and Jo. He ended up picking Jo and Lucy told him she left the Palmwoods for a while. Kendall shook his head and stood up. Jo glanced up at him and tried to hold his hand but Kendall pulled his hand back and stepped away from the couch and from Jo and Lucy. Jo and Lucy shared a worried glance as they both got up and looked at Kendall who had his face in his hands and he seemed to be thinking. He sighed and let his hands fall down his sides.
"This,'' He said. "Is all crazy talk! Why should I believe all of this happened? Besides I wouldn't pick you.'' He said and pointed at Jo.
"No offense, but I would've rather picked Lucy.'' Kendall said and pointed his finger at the rocker chick.
Jo's eyes widened as she looked at Lucy in pure shock. Lucy was frozen for a few minutes before shaking her head.
"Well, I wouldn't have picked you.'' Lucy grabbed James hand and interwined their fingers together.
"As I understand, you gladly kissed me back. So... dump that loser and just come back to me.'' Kendall said spreading his arms.
Jo bit her lip and looked at the ground. Logan and Carlos noticed she was trying to keep her tears at bay. Logan sighed and then looked at Kendall.
"No.'' Lucy shouted. "I love James. Yeah, I liked you, but you ruined your chance when you picked Jo.''
Kendall sighed and shook his head, smirking. "Oh, Lucy.''
Kendall took a step closer to her and put his hand on her shoulder. Lucy raised an eyebrow as she looked into his green eyes that sparkled.
"You will be mine.'' Kendall whispered, before walking to the elevators. Carlos followed him.
James scoffed and crossed his arms. "That's my line. He can't use that line on MY girlfriend!''
Lucy turned towards James and put her hands on his shoulder. He looked into her eyes and he felt himself calm down. He smiled and wrapped his arms around her waist. Lucy chuckled.
"Don't worry. He won't get me. I just got you back, did you really think I already wanted to let go of you?'' Lucy asked smiling.
James laughed and leaned in to place a quick kiss at her lips. They turned to the couch and saw that Logan was sitting in front of Jo. He had his hands on her knees and was apparently telling her Kendall had no control of what he did. Jo looked at the ground and she looked like she could burst into tears any minute. Lucy walked over and sat down next to her, rubbing her back. James nodded with his head to the elevators. Logan understood and stood up. He grabbed Camille's hand and they both followed James to the elevators, leaving Jo and Lucy alone to talk.
"Are you okay?'' Lucy whispered as she continued rubbing Jo's back.
Jo abruptly stood up. She glanced at Lucy and sighed. "Lucy... I'm sorry but I.. can't be around you right now...''
Lucy stood up too. "What? But I didn't do anything!''
"I know... but... Kendall saying he'd rather pick you over me... that hurts. I'm sorry but I'd appreciate it that you would leave me alone until this all blows over.''
Lucy sighed and nodded. "Okay. It's cool, I understand. If you want to talk, you know where you can find me.''
Jo gave her a small smile and then walked towards the elevators. Lucy sat back down on the couch and rested her head in her hand with a sad expression on her face. She understood Jo felt hurt. She felt the same when Kendall had picked Jo over her. She was now over it. Jo was a tough girl so it shouldn't take long before she would be talking to Lucy again. Lucy felt a hand on her shoulder. She turned around and looked into a pair of hazel eyes. Lucy smiled and wrapped her arms around James' neck, resting her head against his shoulder. James wrapped his arms around her back and held her tightly against him. Lucy sighed.
"You okay?'' James asked softly as he stroked his hair.
Lucy let out a soft sigh. "No... she wants me to leave her alone...''
"Oh, Lucy...'' James sighed and pressed a kiss to her temple. "Don't worry. Jo's just hurt because-"
"I know.'' Lucy interuppted and tightened her grip on James. "I know.''
James smiled and holded Lucy as long as she wanted to. They stood there for a good ten minutes in silence when Lucy whispered softly to James.
"Do you promise me you'll never forget me?'' She whispered.
James rested his chin on top of her head. "Never. I'll never forget you.''
Kendall was laying on his bed and stared at the ceiling with a smile on his face. He was thinking of a rocker named Lucy Stone. She might've blown him off but her eyes said she definitely still felt something for him. Kendall thought Lucy was super pretty, prettier then Jo. If it was true he picked Jo over Lucy, he didn't know what was wrong with him. Who would pick Jo over Lucy? She was so clingy and annoying. Besides, he didn't like blondes. He actually liked brunettes but Lucy got his attention with her black hair and red highlights. It didn't matter to Kendall that James was his best friend, he would have Lucy as his girlfriend. James could have Jo if he wanted. Kendall tought Jo fitted better with him anyways. Lucy would be his, he would make sure that happen. Kendall bit his lip and jumped from his bed. He walked into the livingroom and saw that James, Carlos, and Logan were discussing something. None of the three paid attention to Kendall. Kendall chuckled and walked out of the apartment. He had to find Lucy. Right at that moment Lucy came walking out of her apartment, 2I. A sly smile creeped its way onto Kendall's face. This was going to be easier than he thought. Kendall ran a hand through his golden locks and walked towards Lucy. He tapped her on the shoulder and Lucy spun around. Lucy smiled awkwardly as she saw Kendall standing in front of him. Lucy bit her lip and she gulped when Kendall took a step closer towards her.
'Oh boy', Lucy thought. 'This isn't going to end well.'
"Hey Luce.'' Kendall said in a seductive voice.
Lucy raised an eyebrow but managed to smile back politely. "Hey Kendall.''
"So...'' Kendall said, leaning against the wall with one arm, "Where are you going?''
Lucy smiled. "I was heading to the park. To work on some songs.'' She said and nodded with her head to the guitarcase in her hand.
"Great!'' Kendall chirped happily. "I'll join you.''
"Yaaaay.'' Lucy fake cheered.
Lucy turned around and walked down the hall, followed by Kendall. Kendall loosely wrapped an arm around her shoulders. Lucy bit her lip when she felt butterflies in her stomach. It couldn't be that her feelings for Kendall came back. She loved James. She was with James. She wanted James. She belonged with James. Kendall belonged with Jo. She let out a breath. Kendall followed her like a brave dog when she walked into the park. She rolled her eyes. Kendall was slightly annoying her. She sat down on the bench and Kendall sat down next to her, waiting for her to play her guitar. Lucy placed the guitar in her lap and thought for a moment. Memories could be brought back. She just needed to do something that would fresh up Kendall's mind. She suddenly smiled and played the song she wrote about him, You Dumped Me For Her. If this didn't remind him of him picking Jo over her, then she wasn't sure what would. Kendall listened with a smile on his face to the rocker beauty next to him. Her voice like was an angel. It was so beautiful. He clapped when she finished the song. Lucy chuckled.
"Thanks.'' She said smiling. "And? Does this remember you of something?''
Kendall thought for a moment. Lucy's hope flew away when Kendall shook his head. He looked at her with piercing green eyes.
"No.'' He answered. "Should it?''
"It's the song I wrote about you.'' Lucy said frantically. "I wrote it when I moved out of the Palmwoods and you picked Jo over me.''
Kendall placed his hand on her shoulder. "Well, it was the worst decision of my life.''
Lucy's eyebrows shot up. "It was?''
Kendall nodded. "It won't ever happen again.''
"It won't?''
"I promise.'' Kendall smiled.
Kendall then slowly leaned in. His eyes were so hypnotic. She felt herself slowly lean in towards him and her eyes fluttered close. Just when his lips were about to touch hers she jerked her head back and looked away from Kendall. This was bad. Kendall liked her again and she started falling for him all over again. But she couldn't. She was dating James and besides, memory loss didn't last forever. He would get his memory back at some point and would get back together with Jo again. If she'd kiss him now, she would end up with a broken heart all over again. Plus, she would break James' and Jo's hearts. She couldn't do that. She loved them both and didn't want to hurt them. Kendall frowned and stroked her hair. She looked at him with an apologetic look.
"Look... Kendall, I'm sorry. It feels like I'm leading you-" She was cut off when Kendall pressed his lips against hers.
She hummed. Eventually she closed her eyes and leaned closer to Kendall, getting caught up in the moment. A gasp was heard and Kendall and Lucy broke apart. Jo stood there gaping at them. Lucy's eyes widened and she stood up. Jo glanced at her with a hurtful look.
"J-Jo! I- This isn't what it looks like!'' Lucy stuttered.
"Oh it isn't?!'' Jo shouted with tears in her eyes. "Cause it looks like you and Kendall were sucking faces!''
"No! That's not what happened!'' Lucy said desperately. "He kissed me.''
"Well, it seemed you didn't mind at all.'' Jo whispered as the tears rolled down her cheeks. Lucy felt her heart break.
Jo shook her head and made an attempt to walk away but Lucy grabbed her arm.
"Jo, please wait!'' Lucy begged.
Jo pulled her arm free. She wanted to glare at Lucy but she couldn't. "Leave me alone.'' She softly sobbed.
"Jo... I'm telling the truth.'' Lucy whispered softly.
"Do you still have feelings for Kendall?'' Jo asked as she crossed her arms.
Lucy's eyes widened. "What? This... is ridiculous.''
"Answer the question, Lucy. Do you still like him?'' Jo hissed.
Lucy kept silent and glanced at the ground.
"You do. No answer is an answer.'' Jo turned around and then left the park.
Lucy sighed sadly and sat back down on the bench. Kendall immediately wrapped and arm around her but she shrugged it off. Jo was gonna tell James, she just knew it. She had to tell James herself. Kendall tried pulling her to his body but Lucy wrestled herself free. She grabbed her guitarcase and ran to the Palmwoods.
James was reading in 2J when the door was thrown open and Lucy ran inside. James looked up and raised an eyebrow. Lucy leaned against the closed door panting, then made her way to James. She let herself fall down next to him on the orange couch. She didn't say anything she snuggled into his chest and couldn't help but smile when James' stong arms wrapped around her. It felt different then with Kendall. With James, it felt right. Like she was coming home. With Kendall it felt forced and... wrong. She sighed. She couldn't believe she kissed Kendall back. She had to tell James but she couldn't. James hands rubbed her back and she looked up, into his hazel eyes. She smiled and James smiled back.
"What's up, Luce?'' James asked as he stroked her hair.
"Nothing.'' Lucy said and snuggled closer into James' chest, sighing happily. "I love you.'' She whispered.
James chuckled and kissed the top of her head. "Love you too, Luce.''
The door went open again and Lucy squeezed her eyes close. She knew it was Kendall. Kendall strode towards the couch and she felt him sit down next to her. She felt Kendall's hand on her back. James frowned at Kendall and Kendall glared back at him.
"Let go of my girlfriend.'' Kendall demanded.
James' eyebrows raised up again. "Excuse me? Dude, this is my girlfriend. She doesn't like you.''
"Well,'' Kendall chirped happily. "She didn't complain when I kissed her.''
James eyes widened and he shot up, causing Lucy to fall down against the orange cushions.
"You and Kendall kissed?'' James shouted. Lucy stood up and put her hands on his shoulders.
"No, he kissed me. I... didn't kiss him back. I promise.'' Lucy lied.
'I hate lying to James but he can't know I kissed Kendall back.' Lucy thought and bit her lip.
Jame sighed and wrapped an arm around her. He then glanced at Kendall. "Dude. Lucy's my girlfriend. Jo is your girlfriend.''
Kendall shook his head. "I don't want Jo. I want Lucy.''
"Well, you're not getting her.'' James said.
Kendall stood up and walked into his room, slamming the door. James sighed and turned to Lucy. He looked at her with caring eyes.
"Next time he annoys you, call me. Okay?'' He asked.
Lucy nodded. "Okay.''
James grinned and leaned in to kiss her lip. Lucy smiled when his lips touched her but she felt guilt running through her veins. She just lied to her boyfriend. If he ever found out the real truth, he would hate her. Not just for kissing his best friend, but also for lying towards him. What was a good relationship when you kept secrets for each other. But she just got him back. Lucy pulled away then wrapped her arms tightly around James' torso, resting her head against his chest. James' arms wrapped around her waist and his chin rested on top of her head. She didn't want to tell James. She didn't want to loose him when she just got him back. They were so happy together. She made a mistake by kissing Trey and picking Trey over James. But she was glad Jo and Camille talked some sense into her. They made her realize she wanted James and no one else. Jo... Jo was probably furious at her. Knowing her, she would've told Camille. If Camille didn't come to her apartment tonight, she could wait for a huge speech from her by the morning. She never should've kissed Kendall back in the first place. But she got up in the moment, his eyes, his smile... he looked so sweet... Lucy sighed deeply. She made a huge mistake. And she had to make it right with Jo again.
Kendall put his earbuds in and put his MP3 player on shuffle. Worlwide come on and suddenly memories came flooding back to his mind. Meeting Jo. Flirting with Jo. His first dance with Jo. His first kiss with Jo. Jo leaving... Kendall closed his eyes and rubbed his temples. He decided to skip the song. He skipped forwards and listened to No Idea. Again, memories came flooding back to his mind. Lucy dumping Beau. Him and Lucy kissing in the elevator. Jo coming back. Confusion. Hurt. Hiding. Thinking of Lucy. Picking Jo. Kendall shot up and turned his MP3 player of. Picking Jo? Was it true? Was he so crazy about Jo that he picked her over Lucy? He thought of Jo and finally realized how beautiful she really was. His heart started pounding loudly. He fell back against the bed and groaned. He covered his face with his hands. He had kissed Lucy in the park and Jo had seen it. If he hadn't already, he had fucked it up bad. Kendall lay there on his bed. Thinking. Staring at the ceiling. He had hurt Jo's feelings. He thought that Lucy was the one for him but he was wrong. It was Jo and it always had been Jo. Jo was there from the beginning. He had liked her since the first moment he saw her. They might've had a though start after Lucy left but they got through it. That moment in the car when they had kissed... He had missed the feeling of her lips against his. He didn't like Lucy, nor did he love her. He was in love with Jo Taylor.
And he had to make things right.
Yaaaaay next chapter! Yaaaaay Kendall remembers. Kendall and Lucy kissed, not yaaaaay. Lucy lied to James, definitely not yaaaaaaay... what'll happen next? I'd say, stay tuned!
Much love! xxx
