This is my new story. called Elevate. This wil basically just be a bunch of song-fics based off of the songs off their CD Elevate. They will sort of be like one-shots, but they will also all go together, if that makes sense. Anyway, I hope you enjoy and please review to let me know!

Music Sounds Better with U

"Ooh, baby, it feels right, it feels right, everything's better with you." Kendall sang as he strummed his guitar, and then stopped to write down the lyrics and look at what he had so far.

Kendall Knight was sitting on the orange couch in apartment 2J, writing a song that he hoped would be the next hit for Big Time Rush, the band that he and his three best friends, James Diamond, Carlos Garcia, and Logan Mitchell, were a part of. He had finished most of the song and was about to write the bridge when the doorbell rang. He got up and walked to the door to answer it.

When he opened the door, he found his new friend Natalie, the girl who had just moved in across the hall not too long ago. Natalie was about average height, and had brown eyes and reddish-brown shoulder length hair.

"Hey Natalie, what's up?" Kendall asked, leaning against the doorframe and smiling at her. If you asked him, he would deny having a crush on her, but everyone else knew otherwise.

"Hey Kendall! Not much. Just bored. Can I come in?" Natalie replied with a smile.

"Sure! I was just working on writing a new song." Kendall said as he stepped out of the way to let her in. She walked inside and sat on the couch. Kendall closed the door, walked to the couch, and sat beside her. Natalie had picked up his notebook and was looking at the lyrics he had written down so far.

"Music sounds better with you, huh? Sounds like a love song." Natalie teased him as she elbowed him playfully and continued reading the lyrics.

"Haha, I guess so." Kendall replied and blushed, which thankfully she didn't see. It was true that it was written about someone special, her to be specific. He had imagined that she had a great voice and that the song would sound great with her. But he couldn't tell her that.

"So, what comes next?" She asked as she finished reading it.

"Not sure. I got stuck after the chorus the second time." Kendall replied, scrunching his face in frustration at the song. "I was about to write more, but then you rang the doorbell."

"Oh, sorry for interrupting you. I can leave if you want me to." Natalie said as she started the get up.

"No!" Kendall said a little louder than he meant to and pulled her back down on the couch.

Natalie laughed. "OK, then, can I maybe help you?"

"Um, maybe. I don't know, can you write songs?"

"I haven't before, but let's see what happens. Here, sing the song for me so I know how it goes."

"Ok, but I'm warning you that it's not very good yet." Kendall warned her as he started playing his guitar and singing. "Better with you, better with you, yeah. I try to write this down, the words just don't come out, it's hard to say how you feel." Kendall started and then continued singing. Every now and then he would look at Natalie to see her reaction to it.

He sang all the way through the chorus the second time, which is where he had gotten to when the doorbell rang. "And that's where I got stopped."

"It sounds great so far! I really like it. What was your idea for the bridge?" Natalie asked.

"I was thinking about saying something like 'every song, every rhyme, every word is better with you.' What do you think?" Kendall asked as he played that part and sang it.

"I think that sounds great with it. I'm guessing it's like a transition before the chorus again?"

"Yeah. I think I want it to be a little longer though." Kendall said as she strummed some more, trying to figure it out.

"What if after that you said something about 'every day?'"

"Yeah, that could work. What about 'every day, all of the time….ummm. I'm not sure what to put after that now."

"What if you just said every day again?"

"Yeah, I guess. And then we could sing 'everything's better with you' again and then go into the chorus." Kendall said as he wrote that down. "And after chorus, we can just end it or maybe repeat 'music sounds better with you' a few more times, and I think that's it! Thanks Natalie!"

"Well, I didn't help all that much, but you're welcome."

"Well, now you're going to. Here, sing through the song with me so I can see how it sounds all together." Kendall said as he placed the notebook between them and got his guitar ready.

"Oh, I don't know. I mean, I'm not that great of a singer." Natalie told him, and started to push the notebook away.

"Sure you are! Not that I've ever actually heard you sing, but it can't be too bad. Just join in." Kendall said as she started to play the beginning and sing.

"Better with you, better with you, yeah

I tried to write this down, the words just don't come out

It's hard to say how you feel

Been down the longest road, said yes when I meant no

I lost control of the wheel"

Kendall sang as he played, looking up at Natalie every now and then.

"But you know that

Things get so bad, you've got my back

Make me wanna sing, and girl I'm singing about ya

No sweeter sound than what I've found

No perfect love could be more perfect than us"

Kendall continued singing, now with more passion, as he looked right at Natalie. She smiled and blushed as he was singing to her.

"Ooh, baby, it feels like, it feels like

The music sounds better with you

Baby, it feels right, it feels right

Everything's better with you"

Kendall finished the chorus as he nodded to Natalie to signal that it was her turn to sing.

"I used to think that love was something fools made up

Cause all I knew was heartbreak, whoa

I couldn't help myself, let this heart go through hell

There's only so much a heart can take"

Natalie sang as Kendall kept playing, just staring at her as he listened to her melodious voice. He had never heard her sing before, and wondered why she was so embarrassed to sing. He never wanted her to stop. He joined in with her for the next part and the chorus.

"Cause you know that

Things get so bad, you've got my back

Make me wanna sing, and girl I'm singing about ya

No sweeter sound than what I've found

No perfect love could be more perfect than us

Ooh, baby, it feels like, it feels like

The music sounds better with you

Baby, it feels right, it feels right

Everything's better with you"

By this point, Kendall and Natalie had stopped looking at the lyrics and were just staring into each other's eyes, singing.

"Every song, every rhyme, every word is better with you

Every day (every day)

All of the time (all of the time)

Every day, is better with you"

They sang the bridge that they had just written, with Natalie repeating the words on the second half of the bridge. They sang the chorus and finished out with a final "music sounds better with you" while still staring at each other. Neither one really knew what happened next, but the next thing the two knew, they were on the couch kissing. Both were blown away at how natural it felt and how quickly things had just changed between them.

While they were enjoying their kiss, the door opened and the other three guys walked in. Kendall and Natalie heard the door and quickly pulled out of their kiss, but not before James, Carlos, and Logan had seen them.

"Ooh, Kendall and Natalie sitting in a tree. K-I-S-S- ow!" Carlos started singing before James and Logan elbowed him.

"We'll, uh, just leave you two alone." Logan said as he, James, and Carlos walked to their bedroom.

"I should, uh, get back to my apartment. I'll see you later." Natalie said as she stood up, still in shock of all that had just happened. She started to walk toward the door when Kendall grabbed her arm to stop her.

"Wait, Natalie. For the record, you have a really great voice. We should sing together again sometime." Kendall told her with a sweet smile as he moved his arms around her waist. "And, I think that music does sound better with you." Kendall told her sweetly as Natalie started blushing.

"Thanks Kendall. It was fun singing with you. We should do it again sometime." Natalie replied as she gave him a hug. When they pulled away, Natalie leaned in to give him another kiss. When they finished, she started to walk toward the door, and Kendall followed her.

When they got to the door, Kendall opened it for her and she walked out. "Wait again." Kendall said to get her attention. "Would you maybe like to go out with me sometime? Like, on a date?" Kendall said looking at his shoes before looking up at her, afraid of what she might say.

"I would love to." Natalie told him as she walked to her apartment across the hall. She opened the door and walked in after waving at Kendall one last time. Kendall closed the door to apartment 2J behind and leaned against it. "Music sounds better with you." He sang one last time, smiling at everything that had just happened.

Well, what did you think? Please review and let me know good or bad? I'll update again soon!
