The light was all Kendall could see as he opened his eyes. It stung and forced him to close them again. He couldn't move and that's when the noises around him started to register.
"No no no no no no, this can't happen! Kendall! I love you!" James was sobbing into his left arm. After a few minutes he whispered, "I am so sorry."
The beeping of the heart monitor made everybody stop when they were doing. James starred in awe, he could have kissed the boy in front of him but was forced out of the room again when the doctors ran in to check Kendall's vitals.
The small family sat in the waiting room for half an hour not saying a word. The doctors where taking their sweet time checking on Kendall, the only news they had heard so far was that he was awake a responsive to everything.
After about five minutes later, Logan stood up.
"I am going to smack him when I get in that room," everybody couldn't help but burst into laughter. It took that one statement to knock everybody out of the zombie stage. James was crying tears of joy and stood to give Logan a hug.
"I am so sorry to all of you guys. I know that ever since we moved out here I stopped being the James that was all about family. That is going to change," James said. Carlos slowly stood.
"You have nothing to be sorry for, we all turned into the people that we are not. Kendall was the only one to keep a straight mind and it turned on him. None of this is anybody's fault. The stress of it all just pushed him a little harder this time." Everybody stared at Carlos, they have never heard him be so serious in his life.
Silently, they all stood and joined in a group hug. There Kendall was alive and they were going to be just fine.
(Five years later)
James, Logan, and Carlos were all standing together behind stage. Over the last few years BTR made their last album, had a farewell concert, and moved onto their own dreams. Carlos turned to photography seeing as he couldn't hurt himself doing it. Logan became the doctor that all of them knew he would. He saved many lives and the guys couldn't be any prouder. James kept with singing for a few years but it seemed that acting was better suited for him. He found that he really enjoyed directing his own films also, he was now in the middle of making his own original movie.
Kendall kept on with singing, after the coma he lost a lot of strength through the healing process. Hockey was just too dangerous for him to take part in, so he stuck with what truly made him happy. That and, he was with James. They couldn't have been any happier.
When Kendall woke up from his coma, he told everybody about seeing all his old memories and seeing James' dad.
Right now the three of them were standing back stage to Kendall's premiere of his brand new album.
"Where is Kendall?" Logan asked, he was going on stage in five minutes but the blonde boy was nowhere in sight. "He is going to be late."
"I haven't seen him since this morning. I had to get to the set to fix somethings with my movie." James confessed, "I hope he is okay."
"Stop worrying, when hasn't he been fine?" Carlos asked, "He is probably freaking out about his guitar like always." They all laughed at that.
Finally, Kendall came around the corner with a nervous smile on his face.
"Hey guys," he gave James a kiss and hugged Logan and Carlos. "I hate to say it, but I am nervous."
"Don't be, you will be great!" James said as he hugged Kendall tightly. He whispered into his ear, "I love you so much." Kendall just smiled and hugged him back.
"It's just, this will be the first time I perform on stage without any of you. It feels wrong."
"Don't worry, if you get scared just know that we will be in the front row cheering you on! I can't wait to hear your songs. You know how much tourcher it has been? You wouldn't let your best buddies hear in advanced!" Logan said as he hugged the blonde boys.
"I hope you like them," Kendall let out a shaky breath when one of the stage hands came and said he had two minutes.
"Hey," James gently turned Kendall to face him. "You will do great. I love you, we all do. No matter what, you will sound great and have fun doing it." James pulled Kendall into one more hug before they were escorted to their seats.
Finally, in their seats, they watched as Kendall walked onto stage with guitar in hand.
"How you all doing tonight?" The crowd cheered in response. "Its been awhile since my last performance so I will warn you, I might be a little rusty!" The guys couldn't help but shake their heads at this. "Okay, this first song is a personal one for me. It explains my whole life. A lot has happened in the last six years, and I would love to share it with you." The crowd cheers again and the guys share a look, they couldn't wait to hear what Kendall was about to sing. "It called Parallel, hope you like it."
Counting stars, laying in the grass
Side by side, your head in my shoulder…
We talk a lot about nothing much,
With every breath we are getting closer
Parallel in this universe
Do we light up our hearts just to watch'em burn?
Parallel, Are we crossing lines?
Cause maybe tonight…
The stars align!
The stars align!
The guys couldn't help but smile at each other. Kendall sounds amazing!
What if the one who was meant for you,
Was all along right in front of you
Just didn't see it, it was there all the time
Yeah, feel it tonight, yeah
The stars align!
The stars align!
I take the thoughts out of your mind
And put the pieces into my puzzle
Everything I wanna say about you
Is more than enough to write a novel
Parallel in this universe
Do we light up our hearts just to watch'em burn?
Parallel, Are we crossing lines?
Cause maybe tonight…
The stars align!
The stars align!
What if the one who was meant for you,
Was all along right in front of you
Just didn't see it, it was there all the time
Yeah, feel it tonight, yeah
The stars align!
Like rope around, around the moon,
We're pulling close whatever it takes to be with you
Maybe tonight
Maybe tonight the stars align.
The stars align!
James' eyes shone with tears as he thought about the last five years. They were hard but they made it through Kendall's recovery together.
What if the one who was meant for you,
Was all along right in front of you
Just didn't see it, it was there all the time
Yeah, feel it tonight, yeah
The stars align!
The stars align!
The stars align!
The crowd erupted with cheers and applaud. Finally, Kendall's life was perfect.
THE END! I hoped you like it!
