So I thought up the idea for this story a long time ago, but I am just pursuing it now. The main pairing is Kogan but there will be other pairings along the way. This story will contain adult content such as swearing, getting drunk, violence, and sex, just to warn you all. If you read, please review; that is all I ask.

Disclaimer: I do not own Big Time Rush or any of the songs I use in this story (unless I specifically mention that I wrote them). I will credit all songs used in the chapter at the end.

Italics = lyrics being sung

LOGAN

"Don't forget, you boys have to be at the studio at 6 tomorrow. Don't stay up too late," Mrs. Knight warns us before heading off to bed herself.

"We won't," Kendall and I call simultaneously back at her.

"Jynx! You owe me a dollar!" Kendall beats me to saying. I sigh, reaching into my pocket and pulling out my wallet and taking out a dollar bill. Damn his fast reflexes.

"I'm gonna go change and go to bed, I'm kinda exhausted," he says after happily taking my money.

"Kay, I'm not quite tired yet, so I'm gonna read for a bit. Night Kendall," I reply.

"Night, Logan," he says, heading off towards the room we share. I stare at him as he leaves, before picking up my book off the couch and opening it up to where I left off.

I hear some guitar playing from a distance somewhere outside, but I don't question it. Someone's probably just having a party in one of the houses surrounding the Palm Woods area. I continue to believe this until I hear singing, too, singing that is definitely not a prerecorded vocal blasting from a stereo.

And did you come, to stare, or wash away the blood?

I crack open the shades and peek out the window, seeing a girl who seems to be around my age sitting near the fire pit in the pool area. From here I can see that she has black hair that is pulled back, and she is playing a deep red guitar that contrasts with the black shirt and grey jeans she is wearing.

Spend the rest of your days rocking out just for the dead

When she sings that line, I hear her voice falter a bit, revealing to me that she is crying. I decide to head out there to make sure nothing is wrong.

Slipping on my shoes and grabbing a jacket, I quietly slip out of the room and head downstairs to the lobby, and then outside to the pool area.

Did we all fall down?

From the lights to the pavement

From the van to the floor

From backstage to the doctor

From the earth to the morgue

Morgue

Morgue

Morgue~

She sings as I approach her.

I sit down and she seems to notice me, but continues the song anyways. I wait for her to finish.

All… fall… down… well after all.

She finishes strumming on her guitar and then looks up at me, tears still falling from her deep brown eyes.

"Sorry about that," she says, before reaching her hand out to shake mine. "Nice to meet you, the name's Chrissie Lyla."

I shake her hand before beginning to introduce myself. "I'm Lo—"

She cuts me off. "Logan Mitchell, I know. You're in the band Big Time Rush," she says, smiling at me. "Sorry if I disturbed you with my music or anything, I just needed to get some fresh air and just sing.

"No it's okay. I just heard you and I noticed you were crying, so I wanted to make sure you were okay," I explained.

"Oh? Thanks. Yeah, I'm fine, just feeling a bit sad. But that's okay. I'm used to the feeling."

"Oh, well as long as you're okay. I should head back before someone notices I'm gone. Do you need me to walk you back to wherever you live? It's not really a safe time to be walking alone," I say.

"Oh, no, it's fine. I live in the building. I just moved here to start my career in music. I'll see you around, then?" she asks.

"Yeah, I'll be seeing you," I reply as we head back into the lobby, each turning separate ways.

I sneak back into the apartment, heading to my room, quickly changing and then hopping in my bed on the opposite side of the room to Kendall's.

"Who was that chick with the guitar?" Kendall asks, taking me by surprise. I thought he was asleep. And how did he know that I snuck out?

"I left my phone in the living room and went out to get it. I saw that you weren't in there and I heard that music, and so I saw you walking out there," he explains, somehow knowing that I was going to ask that.

"Some girl who just moved here named Chrissie. I heard her singing and I noticed she was crying so I went out there to make sure she was okay," I explain.

"Oh," is all he says, before turning around and going back to sleep.

I sigh.

I just sigh.

KENDALL

We all get back to the Palm Woods after our long recording session with Gustavo, and all I want to do is hang out by the pool. I head up to change, and then head down to the pool. I see that girl who was outside last night and decide to head over there and talk to her. She is holding a guitar that looks like it's made of cherry tinted wood. Her hair is black, and looks short because of the way she has it pulled back, but I can tell that it is pretty long. She is strumming absentmindedly and when I sit down at her table she looks up to me with her dark brown eyes, which are surrounded with some black eyeliner.

"Oh, hi," she says, holding out her hand to me, "I'm Chrissie Lyla. Nice to meet you."

"Kendall Knight," I reply. "Nice to meet you."

We sit in awkward silence for a moment, before I speak up.

"Are you liking the Palm Woods so far?" I ask, not knowing what else to say.

She smiles at me. "Yeah, this place is really beautiful," she says, and then pauses. "You know, we're both just human, so lets not be awkward because we just met. Okay?"

I'm a bit shocked by her straightforwardness, but smile and nod at her. "So, what type of music do you like?" I ask, starting a conversation.

"My favorite bands and artists are Mindless Self Indulgence, My Chemical Romance, Jason Mraz, Oasis, The Cure, The Killers, AFI, etcetera. But by far my most favorite is My Chemical Romance," she explains.

"Oh, I like some of their stuff. I know a couple of their songs. Like, um, I know some of the lyrics to um, Na Na Na, and I know Welcome to the Black Parade, and Sing," I tell her.

"Yeah, I think everyone knows Sing," she says, smiling. She starts to laugh before picking up her guitar and strumming, playing what I recognize to be the opening to Sing.

Sing it out, boy you've got to see what tomorrow brings

She begins singing. I join in after the next line.

For every time that they want to count you out…

When we reach the chorus, a few people around us pick up on it and sing along.

Every time that you lose it, sing it for the world

Once we finish the next verse, almost everyone in the pool area is singing along, and Guitar Dude has begun to play the other guitar part. People have started singing the harmonies, and are banging their hands on the tables to create the drums.

Sing it for the world, sing it for the world!

I look over and see that James and Carlos are both in the pool, singing along too. I look over to the entrance as I see Logan walk in, and I smile. He smiles back at me and walks over, taking the seat next to me and beginning to sing along, too.

I am not the singer that you wanted, but a dancer!

I realize that I'm still staring at Logan, and look back over at Chrissie, who is looking at me, smirking.

I wonder what that's about.

The song ends and everybody is clapping and cheering, and quite honestly, I'm amazed that we just got everyone to sing along with us. Chrissie is laughing and smiling.

"That was awesome!" she exclaims, high-fiving me.

I look back over at Logan, and smile to see that he had fun with it.

"I'm gonna go swim," he tells me, before joining James and Logan in the pool.

"So, have you told Logan that you're in love with him yet?" Chrissie asks me, leaning in close so that I can hear her as she speaks quietly.

Oh shit.

Am I really that obvious?

Okay, so just a short intro.
