Only one

The first event after

A week had passed since Kendall and Logan's post went live. The world now knew about their relationship, and the support had been overwhelming. The fans were ecstatic, fellow celebrities had reached out with words of encouragement, and the media was abuzz with the story. It was a whirlwind, but the couple felt lighter, happier.

Tonight, the band was attending their first public event since the hard launch-a charity gala that had been on their calendar for months. It was a high-profile event, filled with industry elites, and all eyes would be on them. But this time, Kendall and Logan didn't have to worry about hiding. They could be themselves, and they were ready for it.

The car ride to the event was filled with a mix of excitement and a few lingering nerves. James and Carlos sat across from Kendall and Logan, the four of them dressed to the nines in tailored suits. They'd chosen complementary outfits-sophisticated and stylish, without being too flashy.

Carlos leaned back, grinning as he looked over at Kendall and Logan. "You guys ready for this? First time stepping out together officially."

Logan squeezed Kendall's hand, offering him a reassuring smile. "We've got this," he said confidently, though there was a flicker of nervousness in his eyes.

Kendall nodded, though his heart was pounding a little faster than usual. "Yeah, we do. It'll be fine."

James chuckled, leaning in to add, "Honestly, I think the world's more excited about this than anything else. You guys broke the internet with that post."

Carlos laughed. "Yeah, and now you're the power couple everyone's talking about."

Kendall and Logan exchanged a look, a mix of amusement and disbelief. "Power couple," Kendall repeated with a smile. "I never thought we'd be called that."

"Hey, it suits you," James said with a wink.

The car pulled up to the venue, and the familiar flashes of cameras greeted them as they prepared to step out onto the red carpet. The atmosphere outside was electric, with fans and reporters eagerly awaiting their arrival. This time, the energy felt different-more intense, more focused.

As the doors opened, James and Carlos stepped out first, waving to the crowd and posing for pictures. Then it was Kendall and Logan's turn. Logan exited the car first, turning to offer his hand to Kendall, who took it with a small, grateful smile.

The cameras went wild as they stepped onto the carpet together. The couple didn't do anything overtly romantic-no hand-holding or grand gestures-but their closeness was unmistakable. They stood side by side, their shoulders brushing, their expressions relaxed and content. It was subtle, but it was enough.

The four of them posed for group photos, smiling and joking with each other, before moving down the line of reporters. As expected, most of the questions were aimed at Kendall and Logan.

"So, how does it feel to finally be public with your relationship?" one reporter asked, shoving a microphone towards them.

Logan smiled, his voice steady. "It feels good. We're happy, and we're grateful for all the support."

Kendall nodded, adding, "Yeah, it's been overwhelming in the best way possible. We've always been close, and now we get to share that with everyone."

Another reporter chimed in, "What's next for you two as a couple?"

Kendall glanced at Logan, who gave him a slight nod. "Just taking things day by day, like any other couple. We're focusing on the band, our music, and enjoying life together."

The questions continued, but the couple handled them with ease, their responses measured and thoughtful. James and Carlos occasionally jumped in to steer the conversation back to the band and the event, subtly protecting their friends from any prying questions that bordered on intrusive.

As they made their way inside the venue, Logan leaned in close to Kendall, his voice low. "You okay?"

Kendall smiled up at him, his anxiety from earlier completely gone. "I'm more than okay. This feels right."

Logan nodded, his eyes softening. "Yeah, it does."

The event itself was a success. They mingled with guests, took part in the charity auction, and enjoyed the evening together. The atmosphere was relaxed, and for the first time in a long while, Kendall and Logan felt at ease in the public eye.

As the night came to a close, they found themselves sitting at a quiet table, sipping on champagne and reflecting on how far they'd come. The initial nerves were gone, replaced by a deep sense of contentment.

James and Carlos joined them, clinking their glasses together in a silent toast to a successful night.

"To new beginnings," Carlos said, grinning.

Kendall and Logan exchanged a look, their smiles widening.

"To new beginnings," they echoed, knowing that this was just the start of something beautiful.
