Three weeks have passed since James and Kendall became an item, and it was going quite well. At first they were kind of awkward, but after many of Carlos' "What are they gonna do about it?" talks the boys were in full force PDA mode. At times Logan was scared they were going to turn him into a dude lover too after Carlos told him how sexy he was.
One afternoon when Logan came back from work he found James and Kendall making out like rabid beasts while everyone else was at lunch. He approached them and pushed James, and unknowing victim, off of the bed and said "Go find a closet or something, PLEASE!"
This amused the three boys more than it should, and Carlos was making it known that it turned him on when Logan was uncomfortable. He couldn't understand how of all the guys there were to be friends with, he had to choose these ones! Though, this did make him wonder if he should just 'experiment' with the other gender.
On Wednesday afternoon no one had to work, except for Logan, but that was in the early morning. They were all laid out on their beds when James started to play his guitar. Kendall watched him as he began to recognize the song and sat up on the side of his bed. He couldn't quite place it till Carlos began to sing it.
"I know your inside, you're feeling so hollow,
And it's a hard pill for you to swallow,
But if I fall for you, I'll never recover."
Kendall stood as he began to sing along with James and Carlos. He swayed back and forth as he smiled at Logan who looked like he could hardy resist singing along, he finally caved. As the song went on they noticed how people started to watch them. Carlos jumped on James' bed and sang out to the audience that had gathered in front of them.
As the song ended and the boys sat on James and Kendall's bed and looked quite pleased with themselves.
"Dude, I didn't even know any of you could sing!" James said as he patted his guitar. "I would have pulled my baby out a lot sooner if I knew."
"I didn't know either of them could sing." Kendall said as he playfully punched Logan's arm, who gave him a shove in return.
"I'm not that good guys. I'm no pro." Logan said with a small laugh.
"Whatever! Pick a song." James said to Logan.
Logan thought for a moment and said "Please tell me you know this one! Time of my life?" He looked at James expectantly.
"Who doesn't know that song?" He replied as he began to play it.
The rest of the afternoon went by as they had all pulled out their Ipod's reminiscing over old songs they haven't listened to in ages.
That night Kendall and James pushed their beds together. They didn't know if that was even aloud but no one had babysat them in a while so they figured they would take their chances.
Their fingers were intertwined and Kendall had his cheek pressed against James' chest where he could hear his steady, rhythmic heart. He looked up at the tall brunette and asked, "Hey, when did you learn how to play guitar?"
"My mom actually got me started when I was four. She said it would keep my mind off of my father when he left." Kendall sat up on his elbow and traced small circles on the thin white fabric that covered James' chest, who just shrugged before continuing. "I guess she was right. I would come home from school and I would stay up way to late teaching myself songs. I know so many I couldn't even tell you."
Kendall laid back down seeing that James seemed to be at peace with the subject. "I'm glad that you found something to get your mind off of your father. When mine died I got into hockey. It's my biggest passion."
"Eh, I like watching but I would never be good at it." James said as he nibbled his bottom lip.
"Hey, maybe I could teach you a few moves if you teach me a song or two."
"Hey, Logan. Can I talk to you for a minute?" Kendall asked as Carlos and James bantered about something stupid.
"Sure, what's up?" Logan said not knowing that this was a conversation he did not want to have!
"Well….um…you know." Kendall fumbled with his words trying to think of the right ones to use.
"Spit it out will ya?" Logan said feeling his heart begin to race.
"Ok, are you at all gay?" Kendall said quickly.
Logan just stared at him like he had proposed to a squirrel. After moment's delay he shook his head and said "No. Did Carlos put you up to this?" The dark haired boy said as he began to stand to talk to Carlos. Kendall grabbed his wrist pulling him back to the bed and said "No, he has no idea I'm talking to you about this so shh."
Logan looked at him with even more suspicion, "What are you trying to say?"
"I'm trying to say that Carlos really, really, and I mean really likes you. I mean. At first he tried being sweet to you and now he has moved on to full out hitting on you."
Logan huffed with a smile and grumbled, "Yeah, I couldn't tell."
"Hey, so I was thinking that maybe you could just give him a chance. I'm not saying that you have to be in a completely committed relationship. Just try." Kendall was almost begging. "I think it is tearing him apart to see me and James so happy when he wants you and your RIGHT here!"
Logan put his head in his hand and looked at the boy who was trying to play James' guitar as the brunette moved his fingers to the right chords. Carlos had his tongue out in concentration as he listened to James intently.
"Kendall, I don't know." Logan said as he turned back to the expecting blonde.
"I'm not saying you have to make a decision right now. But just think about it." Kendall said as he stood. He wandered to James and placed a peck on his cheek. He saw Carlos look away and bite his lip trying to ignore the boys in front of him.
Logan flung himself forward on the bed, face down in his pillow wishing he could scream into it without drawing to much attention to himself.
Please tell me what you think! It means a lot! If you have any suggestions feel free to let me know!
