Why this must be read: One of the things I love most about the show is how close all the boys are. They've been best friends basically forever, and there's a lot of fertile ground there for writers to play with. This is a short, adorable fic set back when the boys are still in Minnesota, and though it's got James/Logan overtones, it's mostly just a scene of teenage boys goofing off with each other in a way that feels 100% true to canon.

"We're getting paid for this, right?"

Three pairs of hands stopped moving and three pairs of eyes looked at James in disbelief.

"You're kidding, right?" Logan asked.

"What, this is work," James countered.

"We're just raking some leaves, dude," Carlos said.

"Yeah, for my mom," Kendall added. "Who, you know, does stuff for us all the time."

Logan and Carlos shook their heads while Kendall glared for another second before they all went back to work, raking the early-falling leaves into two big piles.

James watched them all for a moment, rake motionless in his hand, before he spoke again. "So that means we're not getting paid?"

"James!" Kendall shouted, not even bothering to look up at him again.
