Cherry Bomb (Big Time Rush)

Human Nature

"You have so much work to do for etiquette, Kevin."

"Kendall."

"Right, right," Mrs. Diamond said with an exhausted sigh and Kendall tried his hardest to not take the fork in his hand and just stab something. Now Kendall was starting to see why James didn't want to spend time with his parents either, sure James had some snobbish moments that made Kendall cringe or roll his eyes at but his parents were the King and Queen of snobs. Everything that Kendall did wasn't good enough for them. Kendall talked too casually, he needed to talk proper. Kendall had bad choice of clothing, he needed to dress more sophisticated. Kendall had a bad walk, he needed to stand tall and straight. Nevermind that he was 18 weeks pregnant and was starting to develop a slight waddle and his back was starting to kill him, Diamonds don't walk like that.

He wasn't a Diamond. He was a Knight. And they walk however they want to walk.

"Well, perhaps later we can continue but right now, I need a glass of chardonnay. Where is that butler of yours?"

"He's on break. Would you want me to get you some?" Kendall asked with a pleasant smile and she shook her head.

"Of course not, dear. I wouldn't want you to be on your feet and running around for me. I'll get James' friend to get me some," she said with a smile and got up from her seat and walked out of the dining room. Kendall let out an exhausted sigh. He should have warned Dak about coming over when James' parents were still here, but Kendall was bored being at the mansion with his in-laws and he knew Carlos was too busy trying to scramble to put together a better baby shower than Logan could. Which Kendall wasn't really sure how seeing as though Logan probably has every single party planner in Hollywood in his contacts. Outclassing Logan would be difficult.

So the Latino was going to try and out-fun the manager.

Kendall bit his lip, getting up and going to walk around the mansion. The home had many rooms that Kendall could spend time in, it had a movie room, a small arcade, a media room, almost like the mansion was a miniature mall. But he was walking around the home, bored as could be. James had left to do some more recording and Mr. and Mrs. Diamond were off either trying to convert Kendall into a perfect addition for the Diamond family or run off and enjoy the paintings and other delicacies LA had to offer. Kendall was trying to talk himself into believing that the two of them in the baby's life would be beneficial, but if they weren't even making an effort to even know Kendall or reconcile with their son, maybe it was better if they weren't there.

He sure as hell wasn't going to name the baby Charles when he didn't even talk to the grandfather.

He stopped by the kitchen, seeing that Dak had decided to pull out a bottle of beer for himself and Kendall raised an eyebrow. He was expecting that Dak would be working as well, maybe James' laziness rubbed off onto the younger heartthrob. Then he felt his heart beginning to quicken as he watched the muscles in Dak's arms clench tight as he twisted the bottle top off the beer and the sudden flush of color over the usually cream skin. Dak stretch his arms and smile lightly, beginning to hum to himself. Kendall felt his face, his beginning to grow hotter face and groaned. Not this again.

Spinetti had teased him that while Kendall's tiredness and mood swings begin to dim, his interest in sex might start to come. And while James seemed interested (almost delighted) in that idea, Kendall was terrified. Kissing James was one thing, having sex with him was something totally different. He just couldn't see him and James doing something like that. The only time they had sex was when they were both drunk and alcohol was clouding both of their minds. Now that Kendall was forced to be sober for another 6 months, there was nothing but the supposed to be pure passion and love between the two of them.
