Nothing Even Matters

Not a Big Deal ~ Chapter 4

Present Day

Kendall's POV

We sat eating our finally completed meal in a comfortable silence.

When I finished my soup, I glanced up at Logan to find him staring at me with a certain gleam in his eyes. "What? Do I have I have something on my face?" I frantically wiped my chin with my the back of my hand, trying to rid it of any offending food.

He chuckled lightly at my sudden action, "No, there's nothing on your face."

"Then why were you just staring at me?" I asked curiously.

He sighed happily, "It's just...I can't believe that...you picked me." He looked down at his lap blushing a light pink shade, "There are plenty of better looking guys, and girls for that matter, that you could be with. And yet...here you sit...with someone who's nothing special." He said it seriously, but I couldn't help but laugh a little bit. "Why are you laughing at me? I'm being serious."

I got up from my seat and walked around the table and lifted Logan out of chair, pulling him into a loving embrace. "No, what your being is ridiculous."

"But you-" he began before I cut him off, quite abruptly.

"Just stop." I paused and took a breath. "Do you really not understand how much you mean to me?" He shrugged, still looking at his feet, so I continued, "Logie, you are the most important person in my life. There's nothing anybody in this world can do to make me think otherwise." I grabbed his chin and forced him to look at me and chocolate eyes mixed with green. "Don't you get it? I love you, Logan Mitchell. It doesn't take logic to figure it out. Stop trying to see reason, and just go with it. Sometimes the information in your brain isn't the most important factor."

"I'm sorry. I just...I don't know." I leaned my forehead against his, wanting to close the gap between us.

He was so close that I could feel his hot breath on my lips. I had to make him see my point, since he wasn't really listening to my words. And I knew just how to do it.

I leaned forward a few centimeters, letting him close the remaining distance, and our lips met in a soft, passionate kiss. I let all my love and everything I felt for Logan flow through the contact. He seemed like he was finally understanding as he moaned into the feeling of my lips on his.

We broke away, and Logan buried his head into the crook of my neck. "I love you, Kendall."

"I know." We stood there for what felt like hours, but in reality was only a couple of minutes, in each others arms. I finally pulled away and gently pecked Logan once more on the lips. "Want to watch that movie now? We still have the apartment to ourselves," I said pulling him towards the orange couch.

"Are we actually going to watch the movie this time? Or is it just an excuse again?" He eyed me questioningly.

I chuckled at his expression, "Your supposed to be the smart one. You tell me." I sat down on the end of the couch while Logan put in the movie. "What are we watching?"

He laid down on the couch, placing his head in my lap as his feet hung over the other arm rest. "Lord of the Rings," he answered after he got comfortable. "Is that okay with you?"

I placed a kiss on his forehead, and he leaned into the touch, "Whatever you want to watch is fine with me." He turned his head to the screen as the opening credits began. I unconsciously started running my fingers through his soft brown locks.

I had a hard time focusing on the movie as I thought about what had happened when Gustavo and Kelly found out.
