Author's Note: It's been SO long since I've written anything on here, but I have nothing better to do with my life at the moment, so why not. This story starts at any time in BTR and during the prologue in PLL. However, it's not a sleepover, it's Spencer's start-of-summer party, but it's still in the barn. Enjoy, and please review, follow, favorite, etc. if you like it!

Gustavo Rocque stepped into the room in his studio where the members of Big Time Rush sat. "Listen up, dogs. You're going to Pennsylvania for a rich girl's start-of-summer party. Usually, I'd oppose the idea, but her parents are offering a large amount of money. Like a LOT of money."

"Pennsylvania?" asked James Diamond. "Like the place with the Liberty Bell?"

Kelly Wainwright nodded. "Among other things."

"Like the Pittsburgh Penguins!" exclaimed Kendall Knight, holding a fist up in the air. The other guys cheered with him.

Gustavo pretended to laugh, but then his face turned serious again. "Uh...no. No hockey games, dogs. You're performing in a town called Rosewood near Philadelphia. Go home and pack some stuff. We're flying out in the morning."

In their apartment, Carlos Garcia packed a suitcase full of pointless things, such as a snorkel and a foam baseball bat. He sat on it and zipped it up. Logan Mitchel narrowed his eyebrows at his Hispanic friend. "Um, why do you need all of those things?"

Carlos shrugged. "Just in case. You never know when you'll need some of these things."

Logan rolled his eyes. Katie Knight, Kendall's little sister, walked into the room carrying a bright pink suitcase. "I can't wait to go to Rosewood. Did you know that, like, everyone there is rich?"

"I do now," said Logan. "I did read that the people in the high school there have high standardized test scores. Some girl named Spencer Hastings had one of the highest scores in the entire state of Pennsylvania. I hope I get to meet her."

James walked into the room, combing his already-perfect hair religiously. "What're you gonna do if you do meet her? Hit on her by telling her you want to make love to her mind?"

"Okay. That's really creepy," nodded Katie.

"Kinda sounds like something he would say, though, right?" retorted Carlos.

Katie laughed and nodded. Logan threw a pillow at Carlos. "Screw all of you. I can charm the ladies."

"Not when you refer to them as 'the ladies'," commented James. He, Carlos, and Katie laughed some more. Jennifer Knight, Kendall and Katie's mom, came into the room. "Is everyone packed?"

"Yep," said Carlos, James, Logan, and Katie together.

"Where's Kendall?" asked Jennifer.

"Right here."

Kendall walked into the room with a gray suitcase. He lifted it onto the couch. "We need to get some sleep, since we have to be at the airport at five in the morning. It's eleven p.m. right now, so..."

Logan sighed after Kendall trailed off. "I don't think I'll be getting much sleep."

"Why?" asked Jennifer.

Logan furrowed his dark eyebrows. "Carlitos. He moves in his sleep. When he's not moving, he's snoring. When he's not snoring, he's sleep-talking. When he's not sleep-talking, he's farting."

"Not true!" said Carlos loudly.

"How would you know?" asked Logan. "You don't know what you do when you're sleeping. It's not like you record yourself."

"Maybe I'll start!" replied Carlos, getting close to Logan's face.

The boys eventually decided to stay up all night in the sitting room. However, they all fell asleep. Ironically, Logan was the only one snoring.

At five a.m., the boys sat down in LAX. Gustavo was explaining something, but the best friends were far too tired to hear a word of it. They just kept yawning and stretching and nodding off. Kendall suggested they sleep on the plane, even if it was only a five-and-a-half-hour flight. And that's just what they did; slept.

The members of Big Time Rush woke up while the plane was landing. They drowsily got off the plane, went through security check, got their baggage, and went outside to wait for taxis. Since there were eight people, two different taxis had to be taken to Rosewood. The boys climbed into the first one, and Kendall told the driver the address of the party.

It took the taxi thirty minutes to get to the address. James paid him, and the boys got out of the car. They didn't have their luggage with them; that went with Gustavo, Kelly, Jennifer, and Katie to the hotel.

A girl suddenly came out the front door of the big house. She practically ran to the boys. She was tall and beautiful, with a slender face, long brown hair, and brown eyes. Logan gasped. "You're Spencer Hastings, the girl with one of the highest scores for the standardized tests."

"Uh, yeah," said Spencer. She smiled nervously. "I'm surprised you looked me up. You guys are so famous. I thought you'd be-"

"Douchebags?" asked Kendall. "No, that's just James."

"Hey!" yelled James. "I'm not a douchebag. I just love myself...a lot."

Spencer laughed. Four girls came out of her house, coming to stand beside their friend on the lawn. Two of the girls were blonde, one of them being a little chubby. The other two girls had dark hair, but one was short and pale and the other was tall and tan. Spencer gestured to her friends. "Well, thanks to Logan, you know who I am. These are my friends; Alison DiLaurentis..."

Spencer pointed to the skinnier blonde, who waved. Spencer gestured to the other blonde. "Hanna Marin..."

Hanna smiled hugely. She was no doubt nervous to meet Big Time Rush. Spencer pointed at the short brunette, who the boys noticed had pink streaks in her hair. "Aria Montgomery..."

Aria nodded, showing a closed-lip smile. Spencer moved her arm to point at the last girl. "and Emily Fields. Welcome to Rosewood. If you'll please just follow us to the barn. That's where the party is."

Big Time Rush followed Spencer and her friends to the back of the house. There, across a lush, green yard, was a big, gray triangular barn with big doors. Spencer opened the doors. The inside of the barn looked amazing. There were Christmas lights hanging on the walls, and a stage had been built on the wall opposite the huge doors. Unmatching tables and chairs were set up along the walls, and there was a long table full of finger foods and two-liters of soda.

"Wow," said Carlos. "Impressive."

"Thanks," said Spencer. "We did it earlier."

Carlos spotted an acoustic guitar leaning against the wall. He walked over to it and examined it. It had been painted black, and there were roses and a big pink letter A decorating it. "Ooh. Whose is this?"

"Mine," answered Aria, coming to stand beside him.

"Do you sing, too?" Carlos asked, looking up at her.

"Yeah, but not in front of anyone," said Aria.

Alison came over to join them. She put a tan arm around Aria's shoulders. "Not even for mommy and daddy, Ar?"

"No," said Aria, a hint of anger in her voice.

Everyone else in the room was a little confused about what had just happened. Alison had a smile on her face, but Aria looked pissed. Spencer spoke to break the tension. "Um, the party doesn't start until eight, so we can hang out until then. Do you guys need to do a sound check?"

"I'm sure the sound is fine," said Kendall, looking at the big speakers set up on the stage. He turned his head to steal a glance at Alison's butt, then looked to the stage once again.

The doors open behind them, and two people walked in. One was a woman who looked a lot like Spencer. The other was a guy with brushed-back dark hair and huge biceps. The guys looked at Spencer. She rolled her eyes. "Melissa, what are you and Ian doing in here?"

Spencer grinned at Ian. He smiled back. Melissa smiled, too, but not for the same reason. "So nice of you to introduce me to your guests. Big Time Rush, I'm Melissa, Spencer's older sister, and this is my boyfriend Ian."

The guys shook Melissa's hand one by one. Logan glared at Ian. He'd seen the look in the guy's eyes when Spencer smiled at him. Ian was practically undressing Spencer in his mind. Logan didn't appreciate that one bit.

"And to answer your question, Spence," started Melissa, "Mom sent me to see if they were here yet. Obviously, they are, so I'll go tell her. You guys have fun. Not too much fun, though."

Melissa turned and walked out of the barn. Ian beamed at Spencer. "The barn looks really nice, Spence."

He then turned and followed Melissa back to Spencer's house. Alison snorted a laugh. "What's up Melissa's ass?"

"There's always something up her ass," replied Spencer in an annoyed tone.

"I think I know why," sing-songed Alison, hitting Spencer's shoulder lightly with the back of her slender hand.

Hanna took a step toward James and spoke for the first time since the boys had arrived. "I like your shirt."

James looked down at his dark gray v-neck t-shirt. "Thanks. I think you're really beautiful."

"Thanks," said Hanna quietly, her face turning pink slowly.

Alison sneered. "You'd probably be more beautiful if you dropped a few, though. Don't you think so, James?"

James knitted his eyebrows together. He was obviously wondering why this girl was practically asking him to be rude to a girl he hardly knew. A pretty girl he hardly knew. "No. Hanna's perfect the way she is."

Alison's jaw dropped to the floor. She wasn't betting on someone thinking Hefty Hanna, of all the girls in the world, over her. She was the prettiest. She was the best. Hanna was just Hanna...and more than a few pounds of fat.

The eight teenagers sat down at the biggest circular table. Carlos sat between Aria and Emily, James sat between Emily and Spencer, Logan sat between Spencer and Alison, and Kendall sat between Alison and Aria.

Kendall looked around the table. "So, we know that Aria's into music. What are the rest of you into?"

"I'm a swimmer," started Emily, speaking for the first time. "I want to become a professional someday. Maybe participate in the Olympics."

While Kendall nodded, Alison said, "There's so many beautiful women in the Olympics, aren't there, Em?"

Emily blushed, and the rest of the girls told what they loved to do. Then Spencer asked Big Time Rush what they were interested in. When everyone was done speaking, the barn doors opened again. In walked Gustavo, Kelly, Jennifer, and Katie. Kelly glanced at the table full of teenagers. "Hi. Um, some woman with a stick up her ass told us to come back here?"

Spencer stood up. "Yeah. That's my sister, Melissa. I'm the girl throwing the party, Spencer Hastings. Thank you so much for letting Big Time Rush sing. It really means a lot to me."

"Thanks for your rich parents," said Gustavo. Kelly smacked his chest hard.

"Who are you?" Emily asked, stepping close to Katie. "You're so cute."

Katie feigned a smile. "I'm Katie, and I'm not four."

"That's my sister," started Kendall. "She's very...grown up for her age."

"I noticed," said Emily.

"And I'm Kendall's mom Jennifer," said Jennifer, waving to all of the girls. "I also look after the other boys. It was easier than all of their moms coming to Hollywood...for their moms at least."

The girls all giggled. The boys looked slightly embarrassed.

At 8, people started showing up. The boys lingered around the stage, as did the girls. They were all practically best friends by now. Alison looked at Spencer and grimaced. "Ew, um, did you invite Jenna?"

"Yeah," answered Spencer. "I just feel so bad about...you know."

"And you invited Mona?!" said Alison loudly. "Why, Spence? Why?"

Spencer shrugged. "I feel sorry for her."

As if she could sense that Alison and Spencer were talking about her, Mona bounced up. She was the same height as Aria, her dark hair was frizzy, and her thick glasses were crooked. Mona wore a drab gray dress with white tights and shiny black Mary Janes. The girl waved excitedly. "Hi, guys! Great party, Spencer!"

"Thanks, Mona," said Spencer, a little uncomfortable.

Mona looked past Spencer at the boys. "Oh. Em. Gee. I can't believe you got Big Time Rush to play at your party. They are so hot!"

"And you're so not, Mona," said Alison. "So please, get lost, before you embarrass yourself in front of the famous people."

Mona's smile disappeared, and she turned and walked away heatedly. Spencer turned to look at Alison, angered. "Why do you have to be such a bitch, Ali?! You know, Mona might not be as pretty as you on the outside, but at least she's nice!"

Alison's mouth fell open. None of the girls ever stood up to her. It was the way things went. Alison was a bitch, and no one said anything...until now. "Take it back, Spencer! Now!"

"God, take a pill." Spencer rolled her eyes, then took a drink of her Pepsi.

"Whatever, Spencer! I'm out of here! I should have never become friends with a loser like you!" yelled Alison. She turned and pushed her way through the crowd. Spencer saw one of the huge doors open and then shut. She shrugged. What was the worst that could happen?

At the end of the party, everyone was worried. Alison still hadn't come back, and she wasn't at her house; Spencer had called to check. Kendall sat down on the edge of the stage and looked at Spencer with a concerned look on his face. "I think I'm going to try and find her."

"Okay. Be careful," said Spencer. Kendall disappeared out of the barn.

And a year later, both Alison and Kendall still hadn't been found...
