Private School Life.

18.

I walk back to Kendall's room, sighing.
"Bumped into a mad James?" Kendall asks as he turns off the light and turns on the TV.
I nod, "Yup, apparently he wanted me to choose between you and him and by coming back here, I picked you."
Kendall sighed, "I really hope this is all because of the alcohol. I mean, it's not fair if you have to choose. And I don't want you to."
I sit down next to Kendall and crawl against him.
He put his arm around me and gives me a kiss on the top of my head.

*

I wake up as I hear my phone buzzing.
"Ugh why?!" I groan as I pick up.
"Morning sunshine!" I hear Annabelle say to me.
"You woke me!" I mumble as I lay my head back on the pillow.
Kendall's half awake and pulls me closer to him.
He buries his face in my hair and continues sleeping.
"It's kinda important actually. And I don't think you're gonna like it." Annabelle continues.
I sigh, "It's James, isn't it?"
I hear Annabelle sigh.
"Alright, thanks for letting me know." I reply.
"I tried to talk some sense into him, but he's just too stubborn for that." she answers.
"It's okay, thanks though." I smile a little.
"I'll be seeing you with lunch then?" she asks.
"Yup, we'll be there whether James likes it or not." I chuckle.
"That's the [Y/N] that I know!" Annabelle laughs.

"Hm what was that?" Kendall mumbles.
"James is pissed. Let's say that." I reply as I'm about to get out of bed.
"No don't go." Kendall pouts as he grabs my waist and pulls me back on the bed.
"Alright, but we have to go get lunch soon." I giggle.
Kendall nods, smiles and sighs.
"What's wrong?" I ask, frowning.
He shrugs a little, "Nothing. I just like you a lot!"
"Cheesy." I stated, "But I love it."
I lean in for a kiss and Kendall pulls me on top of him.
His hands are on my lower back, gliding to my butt.
He smirks a little in between the kisses.
"Stop that." I mumble against his lips.
"Stop what?" he smirks, again.
"Making me want you." I whisper.
Kendall bites his lower lip and blushes.
"Ahw I made you blush." I chuckle as I sit up straight, still on him.
"I wasn't blushing!" Kendall states, "Now you killed the moment."
I laugh, "I'm pretty sure we'll have a lot more of these moments, don't you worry about that! Now let's get lunch, okay?"
Kendall nods and I get off of him.
I grab the clothes I wore yesterday and decided that I'll just put them on again.
As I put on my socks, I see Kendall looking at me.
"What?" I smile.
"I can finally watch you putting them on without looking like a pervert." he states, grinning.
"Ew, you still sound like a pervert now." I chuckle.
He shrugs, "Don't care!"
He changes his shirt and pants and looks for his shoes.
I tie my Converse and grab Kendall's beanie from the night stand.
I walk over to him and put it on his head.
"Now we match!" I state, smirking.
Kendall smiles, puts a strand of hair behind my ear and roughly places his lips on mine.
He gently pushes me to the wall and licks my lower lip.
I smile against his lips and his hand slides to my leg.
Kendall's hand goes up a little and I run one hand through the back of his hair, the other hand's pulling him against me.
He chuckles and lets go of me.
"Ahw." I pout.
"You wanted to get lunch, remember." Kendall winks.
"That was before you started making out with me again." I state, crossing my arms, "But I am kinda hungry."
Kendall chuckles and intertwines his fingers with mine, "Let's go."
-
"Oh, there's Annie!" I say as I see her wave at us.
Kendall lets go of my hand and we both sit down at the table where the rest of our groups is at.
"Hey I never said Happy New Year to you guys!" Dustin says as he leans in to give me a kiss on my cheek and shakes Kendall's hand.
"Me neither!" Logan states with a smile,"To be honest, I haven't seen you all night."
"Or we were just too drunk to see, ha ha ." Carlos jokes, "James did you see them?"
He turns to James as he takes a sip of his hot chocolate.
James gives Kendall a look and narrows his eyes, "Oh yes, I've seen them."
"James, please-" I begin but he cuts me off.
"They did something stupid and now I don't talk to either of them anymore." James states as he turns away from me and turns to Carlos.
"Don't be so ridiculous. You know I would never-" Kendall says.
"They've made their choice." James ends, cutting Kendall off too.
I sigh and look at Annabelle.
'I'm sorry.' she mouths.
'It's not your fault." I whisper.
Everyone keeps silent and I've had enough of this.
"I'm off. If James ever decides to act normal again, let me know." I say to no one in particular as I get up.
I see that Kendall isn't following me and I'm okay with that.
He really wants to talk to James and I hope right now it's the right time.
I can't have James ruin this for me.
He's supposed to have my back on almost everything.
I thought he would be happy that I'm dating one of his best friends.
He knows Kendall, he knows me.

Without knowing why, I walk back to Kendall and James' room.
I fall down on Kendall's bed and sigh.
As I look over at James' side of the room, I see his pin-up board filled with photos of him and Annabelle.
There's also a few of me and him, and him with the guys.
A few notes that Annabelle gave him are on it, some address cards and a drawing that I made him when I was 5.
He still had it.
I get tears in my eyes as I look at the drawing.
I drew me and him playing hide-an-seek.
While looking at it I chuckle a little, this drawing is absolutely awful.
I turn around and look at Kendall's board.
A photo of James on Kendall's back, awkward piggy back ride.
Tons of lyric ideas for some songs he is writing.
A bunch of photos of him and his family, him and the guys and a few of his pets.

Ten minutes later the door opens and I immediately run over to Kendall.
I bury my face into his shirt and sob, "It kills me when James acts like this. I don't want to lose either of you."
His arms are around me, pulling me closer.
"There's something you need to see." he says as his voice cracks a little.
With wet eyes, I look up and tremble when I see his face.
He has a swollen cheek and there's a little bit of blood in the corner of his mouth.
"James hit me."
