Welp. I'm back! Yay? Is anypne even still reading this?

James's POV

"James?"

"Yeah?"

"This is stupid." I rolled my eyes at Carlos, who had managed to make an all but 3 minutes into the lifetime TV movie before complaining. "What is supposed to be love-y about this?"

I looked at him incredulously. "A James Cagney love scene is one where he lets the other guy live. That should be enough."

Carlos just shook his head and reached back into the popcorn bowl, nose scrunching as he tried to swallow.

"If you don't like it, then why do you eat it."

"Because my papi said there are starving kids in Africa and I should eat all my food." Carlos stated nonchalantly with a shrug of his shoulders.

I shook my head at him and turned to face the TV again. It had been about a week and it was finally the day that Kendall was coming home from his trip to Chicago.

With Dak.

Did I mention their dating now?

Ugh. . .home wrecker.

Well, they weren't dating so to speak but they had fooled around a bit. I only knew this because Kendall had been texting Carlos all weekend and Carlos, being a reliable friend, repeated the info to me.

"Ugh!" Carlos shouted angerly at the screen. "This is so stupid. Everyone knows men are all equal above fish!"

Clearly, I missed something.

Beep Beep Beep

Carlos looked down into his pocket and pulled out his cell phone, revealing a text from Kendall. "He says, 'open the fucking door. My ass is freezing.'" The bubbly latino looked at me with sad eyes. "Do you want to get it or should I?"

I sighed heavily. "I'll get it."

I got up and walked to the door, taking a deep breath before opening it. Kendall's eyes immeaditly found mine from under the blonde bangs and beanie on his head. We stood there for a moment just looking at each other before I stepped aside, lowering my gaze, to let him in.

"Thank you. . ." He muttered as he entered the house and began taking his boots off.

"No problem –"

"Kendall!" Carlos exclaimed and ran in to give the blonde a bear hug. "How have you been?"

Kendall beamed. "Well, I am literally the equivalent of a Big Mac and Fries." He joked. I couldn't help but laugh alone with the two. It was so. . .Kendall-like to say. I missed it.

After we all sort of calmed down, I cleared my throat. "Kendall –"

"We need to talk." He finished my statement for me and we shared a look. Carlos seemed to get the hint and went back to the living room, saying something about how he was going to call Logan, who was at a chess tournament.

I felt my cheeks flare bright pink and my heart racing at a mile a minute when Kendall actually grabbed my hand in his and walked us to the kitchen table, sitting us down next to each other. He took a breath and held my hand in his. I was praying to god that my hand didn't start sweating, but what could I say? This was a big deal for me!

"James, I wanted to apologize for the way I acted. I overreacted and I know that now and I'm sorry."

I shook my head. "No, I'm the one that should be sorry for what I said. But I need you to know that I never meant any of that stuff and that I loved you. I still do! But if you want to be with Dak. . ." I paused trying to force the lump in my throat to go down. "Then I am happy for you."

Kendall gave me a sad smile. "I don't want to be with Dak, James. Even though I may have doubted it for a moment, I only love you. No one else can change that."

I was about to lean into kiss him when he continued. "That being said, I still need time to heal from that fight. It may have been short but it took a toll and I would love to be with you again, but I need some time." He looked at me hopefully. "Is that okay?"

"Of course its okay, Kendall!" I beamed, happily. "I love you so much. I would wait years for you to heal. You're the only one for me and I look forward to the day when we can be together again."

Kendall's face lit up like the fourth of July. He gave a light chuckle and stood up. "Good. But I have to shower from the flight. Your play is tonight, right? Maybe I can come see it?"

"Absolutely."

Kendall leaned down to kiss me on the forehead.

And my heart felt like it was semi-complete again.

Review? Please let me know what you did and didn't like about it! :)
