Carlos sits beside you.
"What made you fall for James?" Carlos asks.
"I guess his good looks, his hazel eyes, his bad boy personality and how he flirts...I don't know." You frown and lean back on the seat.
Carlos sighs.
"You don't owe it to Kendall to stay with him, just because he helped with your mom doesn't mean-" Carlos starts before you interrupt.
"How dare you even-" You snap before Carlos interrupts you.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to sound harsh but if you loved Kendall so much, why did you fall for James?" Carlos asks resting his hand on your knee.
You sigh as Carlos leaves you alone; after 15 minutes you end up falling asleep on the couch. Carlos doesn't wake you for dinner, he just places a blanket over you and kisses your forehead before turning the lights off and going to bed. You slowly start to awake at 3am and turn on the lamp beside the couch and walk to the kitchen hungry since you didn't have dinner. You turn on the light grabbing a bowl and some cereal; you pour in the cereal followed by milk and take a spoonful while grabbing your phone from your pocket and realize you have 4 unread text messages. 1 from Kendall, 1 from James and 2 from Logan; you open the one from Kendall.
"Hey babe, I can't wait to have you to myself at my parents beach house this weekend. ;) I miss you a lot xx"
You smile to yourself while going into the message from James.
"I didn't want you to talk to Jake because I like your company at work and I really like having you around so I'd appreciate you not talking to Jake's just so I could be with you a little longer..thanks. (:"
You laugh softly to yourself before going into the 2 messages from Logan.
"YN, could we meet tonight for dinner? I have something important to talk to you about xo"
You furrow your brows confused as you open the other from Logan.
"Since you didn't reply, I assume you were busy or something. Could you give me a call tomorrow around midday so we can organize another time to get together? Thanks."
You're confused and a little concerned about what was so important about what Logan had to say; you finish your cereal and rinse your bowl out before turning the lights off and heading upstairs to your own bed. You wake up later that morning feeling dizzy and sick, you slowly come to sit up but rush to the bathroom placing your hair behind your ears, holding the side of the toilet vomiting. Carlos walks in to wake you up for college and rushes to the bathroom and holds your hair up as you vomit. You slowly pull back as you finish after a few moments and sit beside the toilet groaning.
"What did you eat?" Carlos says concerned handing you a damp cloth.
"Ugh I think it was the cereal I ate early this morning." You frown holding the cloth on your head.
"I'll stay home and take care..." Carlos starts.
"Carlos, you have work; you have to work, don't miss it just because I'm sick." You say as Carlos helps you up.
"You're going to lay in bed all day and I'll be downstairs making you soup." Carlos says laying you back in the bed and covering you with a blanket.
"But..." You start.
"No buts, I'll call Jake and say you can't come in this afternoon." Carlos smiles softly. "But you stay and rest up okay? You'll be better in no time."
"Can you call Kendall? Just tell him I'm sick and he doesn't need to pick me up please; his number is in the home phone." You say cuddling into the blanket.
"Okay, just try and get some more sleep; I'll be in around lunch and give you some home made soup." Carlos says shutting your door and walking downstairs.
You make yourself comfortable in the blankets and shut your eyes trying to sleep again, you finally fall asleep after 30 minutes of tossing and turning. Carlos slowly shakes you around 1pm, you slowly open your eyes and yawn feeling slightly better; you sit up and sniff the air.
"Mm your soup." You smile weakly as you eye the soup he has in his hands for you.
"Your favorite, I hope it makes you feel better." He smiles handing it to you. "Would you like anything else?"
"No thanks, this would be it." You say sipping the soup.
"Call if you need anything." Carlos says leaving the room as you grab your phone.
You text Logan saying to come over after work since you're home today before leaning back and enjoying the soup; Carlos' soup was the best thing he makes when you're sick and you love every bit of it. You see a few unread texts but don't open them since you're too lazy so you just enjoy the soup. After a few hours, you hear a faint knock at the door, it's Logan.
"Hey YN, how are you feeling?" Logan says walking in and sitting on the edge of your bed.
"Better after the soup." You smile sitting up. "What was so important that you really wanted to meet up about?"
Logan runs his hands through his hair.
"It's something big and you have to know since we've known each other for so long..." Logan starts.
"Logan, just spit it out." You say confused looking at him.
Logan turns and looks at you.
"YN, I need to ask you..." Logan starts before pulling a diamond ring from his pocket...
