This story was inspired by Logan Henderson and Kendall Schmidt's song "Next Step".

This took me forever to write. This is the first installment.

Disclaimer: I do not, nor will I ever, own Big Time Rush. Nor do I own the song "Next Step". If I did, it wouldn't be on Nickelodeon.

Guys I met Big Time Rush last weekend! August 11, 2013! At their Milwaukee Concert! I almost died! o.o

Anyway on to the story!


Step 1: We Were Just Two Friends Having Fun

I was hanging out by the Palmwoods' Pool, the greatest pool in Hollywood, it was so gorgeous. My best friends, James and Carlos, were trying to hit on the Jennifers again, failing miserably. The Jennifers were very rude girls who wouldn't pay attention to you unless you were famous. Well we kind of are we have already been on three tours and played to sold out arenas, but I guess that wasn't good enough for the Jennifers. Not like it bothers me at all. I never really liked them.

Kendall, my other (and favorite) best friend was sitting in a chair next to me sunbathing. I have been in love with Kendall since middle school when he stuck up for me in front of my tormentors and protected me. We have been best friends since then. He is like the leader of our group. He protects us like a father even if he is the youngest out of all of us. He is by far the handsomest, James may have 'the face' but James showed to much confidence. Kendall is handsome because he's modest, he does not see how handsome, beautiful, and hot he is. No matter how many times his fans tell him differently. He is talented, amazing, sweet, nice, smart, thoughtful, protective and the reason we are all here.

Four years ago we were in Minnesota just watching TV as James dreamed of being famous. When James' chance came Kendall made sure we got him there. When the producer said he hated James and he had no talent Kendall got in his face and yelled at him and sang him a giant turd song. The producer said he like Kendall but Kendall refused to go unless his buds went with him and he had to make them a singing group. So here we are, a singing group, with Gustavo Rocque as our producer.

"Hey, Logan!" Someone yelled snapping me out of my thoughts. I look to see Kendall in the pool holding a water gun. I was so out of it I didn't know Kendall moved. I normally know everything he does. I call it 'Kendar'.

"What, Kendall?" I tried to act annoyed but he just smiled. Ah, that made me melt like ice cream on a hot day.

"Water fight!" He yelled and squirted me with the water gun. Oh it's on! I laughed and ran to the pool jumping in and tackling Kendall below the water.

The water fight seemed to last forever and it was getting late and everyone else had plans so the only people left in the pool were Kendall and i and right now I was winning in the water fight. This was so fun! Its been awhile since me and him did anything just the two of us. Kendall pushed the water gun away from me and started tickling me. He knows that is my weakness. I saw away trying to get away from him but he was to fast. He caught up to me and pushed me against the wall of the pool and continued to tickle me as I laughed and begged him to stop. He was laughing along with me then he abruptly stopped. But his hands stayed on my waist. I looked at him to see him looking at me in a way I have never seen him look at me before. I watched his eyes flicker to my lips. My breath caught. He leaned his head closer and just as our lips were about to touch we were both hit in the face with a beach ball. We both turned to see Carlos and James looking at us smirking.

"Dinner time, boys," James said. Kendall got away from me and left following James. I felt the blood run to my face. Carlos grinned at me.

"Tell me all about it tonight, 'kay, Logie?" Carlos is the only one who knew about my Kendall problem. "It's fish stick friday!" He said excitedly and I followed him to our apartment 2J with only one sentence in my mind:

What just happened?
