After Logans outburst there was silence once again. Everybody was deep in their thoughts and had sat down in the meantime. Their body language portrayed what they each felt inside.
James wrapped his arms around himself and gazed at the ground - ashamed.
Logan crossed his arms over his chest and held his menacing stare - angry.
Kendall dropped his arms to his sides and switched gazes between his friends - uncertain.

The tall brunette realized how serious the situation was and what or rather who he was about to loose, if he wouldn't make a move right now. His bandmates, his best friends, his little brother, his family. There are no other people on this earth who know him better than they do and who've been there for all the important milestones in his life. He considers each of the boys a part of himself and to loose only one of them, would destroy him, that's for sure.
"Did I really act so horrible towards you guys?", was what he chose to say next.
"I wouldn't have put it that way if I didn't mean it, James. You can be really glad that I'm willing to give you a second chance, cause I've known you since forever and know you can be a better person. That is, if you apologize and are willing to work for our friendship, cause to put it simply, you fucked up, a lot.", Logan sounded a lot calmer than before.
James got chocked up hearing this and tears threatened to fall from his eyes. He tried to hide it by sweeping them away, but because Kendall and Logan aren't heartless robots, they already noticed him crying.
"Guys, I'm so sorry. I never meant to make you feel scared of me, so that you don't see me as your friend anymore. There is nothing I value more in my life than our friendship. It is more important to me than anything in this world, even chasing girls and being famous. Because I am friends with you three idiots, I am who I am, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I won't and can't lose you because I wouldn't know who I am anymore."
What came next was a sight the other two have never seen before. Mister Perfect James 'The Face' Diamond was literally down on his knees begging for forgiveness.
"So, Logan Mitchell, Kendall Knight, I am hereby apologizing for all the awful things I have ever said and done to you and promise that I will work on myself to be a better friend to you if you are willing to give me the chance."
Logan was impressed by the way James phrased his apology and has already forgiven him once he saw the tears in his eyes, which convinced him, he was sincere.
Kendall was ready to forgive him even before that, because he just wanted things to go back the way they were before all of this shit went down.
They were nodding to each other and came to a silent agreement.
"James, first, get up off the floor." That he did.
"We believe you and we forgive you. You really should stop crying, it doesn't suit you at all", Kendall said with a slight chuckle.
"Just like that?! I mean not that I'm not grateful for it, but I thought I would have to prove myself to you somehow. I don't feel like I deserve it that easily." All of that took a really hard blow on his self esteem.
Kendall and Logan hated to see him that way. So the latter took a quick second and sighed, getting ready for what he was about to do. "This is normally Los' part but… do you want a hug?", he asked, already spreading his arms.
"Yeah, but I don't deserve one"
"C'mere you asshole, you too, eyebrows", with those words he pulled his two best friends into a very tight and long hug, no one objected. This was necessary, everyone felt that, but for obvious reasons it felt wrong.
They were incomplete.
Okay, guys we have to promise to each other right now, that we will never ever have another group hug with just three people again. That felt just so wrong. You agree?"
"Yup, so, where is our little Latino friend?"
