So... without further ado...

Carlos and Logan eventually pull away from each other, a calming silence falling over them.

"Hi," Logan says with a deep sigh.

"Hi," Carlos responds with an equivalently deep sigh. "I've missed you."

"Yeah, me too."

Logan shoves his hands into his pockets and begins to rock back and forth on his heels. Carlos takes to looking at everything other than Logan.

"Sooo…" Logan begins, "…can we talk?"

"Ummm… isn't that what we're doing?" Carlos tries to deflect the topic. Logan's eyes narrow and Carlos concedes. "Ok, fine… can I get dressed first?"

Logan looks him up and down. "You look fine to me."

Carlos' cheeks are flushed and he stutters, "I… Uhhhh… Well… Ummm…"

Logan is a bit surprised at how easy it is for him to return to his flirting mode. "Wow," he replies uneasily, "that came out wrong."

They both chuckle nervously and silence descends on them again.

"So… uhh… I'll meet you in the courtyard downstairs?" Logan asks.

"Hmmm… oh… yeah… sure. I shouldn't be long." Carlos responds.

It takes them a few seconds, but without saying anything they simultaneously turn around. Logan heads down to the lobby and Carlos back into the room.

Kendall and James sit on the couches excitedly discussing the highly likely possibility that things will return to normal. Well, as normal as things can be now that a couple exists in the group. They had thought about following Logan, but decided that they've done all they could and it is time for Carlos and Logan to work it out themselves, alone.

"It'll feel so nice not having to worry about remembering not to say Carlos' name when talking to Logan. I remember almost slipping up quite… a… few… times." James' speech slows and his eyes widen as he sees Logan's reflection in the mirror stepping out of the elevator.

Kendall follow James' eyes, but sees nothing. He tilts his head and waits for James to explain.

"Kendall… I just saw Logan..." James explains and Kendall awaits the punch-line. "ALOOOONNEEE…"

Kendall's eyes widen. Just before he can say something he sees Logan appear around the corner. He pokes James' arm and nods his head in Logan's direction. They are fully expecting a dejected looking Logan, but what they see is the complete opposite. Logan's strutting through the lobby head held high with a cheesy grin on his face. Kendall and James exchange a look and then Kendall calls out.

"Hey, Logan!"

Logan turns his head, waves and makes his way towards them. He takes a seat on the couch across from them. James and Kendall wait for Logan to volunteer information but he just sits there with a cheesy yet reserved grin on his face.

"Soooo…" James begins, "… what happened?" He knowingly teases.

Logan sighs and relaxes into the couch. "Carlos loves me!" he says, grin widening.

James and Kendall's faces light up. "About time!" Kendall exclaims.

Logan shakes his head and smirks. "What is that supposed to mean?" he asks with feigned hurt.

"Exactly what it sounds like!" James retorts while laughing.

"Ok," Logan starts while rolling his eyes, "before you guys start asking questions, I'm gonna go." He stands and heads toward the courtyard.

Kendall and James are howling with laughter when Carlos steps around the corner a minute later. Carlos rolls his eyes and does his best to sneak by unnoticed. Yeah, well, he's never been that good at being sneaky.

"CARLOS!" Kendall manages to yell in between laughs.

Carlos freezes and slowly turns to face his friends. Kendall and James have managed to tone down their laughter and have plastered a cheesy smile on their faces.

"Hey, guys!" Carlos tries to hide how nervous he is. "Uhhh… have you seen, Logan?"

"Yep!" Kendall and James answer in unison while continuing to sit there, cheesily grinning up at Carlos.

"Well?…" Carlos asks impatiently.

Kendall and James giggle like schoolgirls and point in the direction of the courtyard.

Carlos rolls his eyes. "Thanks…" he sighs, "… I think."

As Carlos walks away, James yells, "Play nice you two!"

James and Kendall return to howling with laughter and Carlos turns to give them the evil eye, but fails when he sees how happy they are. He hopes that he and Logan can be just as happy again.

Logan is sitting on the edge of the fountain listening to the peaceful sound of running water and re-reading the letter. He is startled from his thoughts when a hand rests on his shoulder.

"I meant every word of that," Carlos solemnly states.

Logan looks up into those beautiful brown eyes. "I know…" He gestures for Carlos to take a seat next to him. "… but I just don't understand something. If you've felt this way all these years, why did you never call?"

Carlos is surprised by the question. He looks into Logan's eyes and tries to answer, but the truth is so humiliating for him that he changes his attention to the flowing water. "I saw the hurt I caused you when those horrible words left my mouth. I didn't even try to stop you when you ran back to your car. You had every right to be angry with me." He takes a deep breath, "I felt that you'd be better off forgetting about me. My not attempting to contact you was my way of helping you with that but it pained me each and every day I'd pick up the phone to try to call you."

Logan reaches over to turn Carlos' head so that they were looking into each other's eyes. "Do you realize that it only made it worse for me? I believed for the past two years that you truly hated me and regretted every moment you had spent with me. I've never stopped loving you. There hasn't been a single day that I didn't want to pick up the phone to call you and see what you've been up to, but the belief I had of how you felt about me stopped me every time."

Carlos breaks the eye contact and chuckles, "Wow, we're really bad at this communication thing."

Logan smirks and nods as he scoots a little closer to Carlos.

"I've never stopped loving you either, Logan, but you deserve so much more than me. I want you to find someone who makes you happy. Someone who isn't an idiot like me. Someone who will realize how good he has it because you love him. Someone who…"

Carlos' words are cut short by Logan's lips. He is startled but reciprocates the gentle gesture. Both of them have been waiting for this moment for so long. It was everything they wanted it to be and more. It is just a short kiss but it says everything Logan wants to say and halts Carlos' self-deprecating tirade.

They pull apart, eyes lock, and smiles appear on their faces.

"What was that for?" Carlos asks.

Logan shrugs, "It was the only way I could think of to get you to shut up..." Carlos gives him a gentle shove. "… and to show you that you were wrong about everything. You're the only one for me. The fact that we're here proves that."

"Well, we wouldn't be here if it weren't for Kendall and James."

"True…" Logan concedes, "… but James told me last year that he knew that one day you and I would work things out. He didn't know when or how, but I guess he saw how much I wanted us to work."

"Yeah, Kendall said something similar. He told me earlier that we are perfect for each other and if I could get past my guilt and talk to you, things would work out."

Logan smiles. "So, I'm ready to give this a shot. Are you?"

Carlos feigns hesitation before leaning into Logan. Logan acknowledges and leans in and presses their lips together. His hands reach up to hold Carlos' face while Carlos' hands wrap around Logan's waist, pulling them closer. The kiss is passionate and deep releasing the love that has been trapped for two years.

All too soon, though, the kiss is interrupted by a whistle. Carlos and Logan disappointedly pull apart and look toward the direction of the noise. There are Kendall and James leaning against the doorframe connecting the lobby to the courtyard, beaming. Carlos and Logan's eyes narrow.

"How long have you two been standing there?" Logan questions.

James shrugs and responds, "Long enough."

Kendall and James make their way to the two lovebirds, one on each side, and place their arms around their shoulders.

"Soooo…" Kendall starts, "… wanna go see a movie?"

"I hear Disney's released a new one. I think it's a sequel to this one movie that came out two years ago." James jokes.

Carlos and Logan exchange looks and smile. In unison they both playfully punch their respective friend in the stomach. "Jerks!" they quip.

Logan leans over and gives Carlos a little kiss on the cheek, knowing that a repeat of what happened that night will never ever happen.

Carlos' breath catches and a huge grin spreads across his face. "Finally!"
