A/N: This is my first BTR fiction so I hope you all enjoy it. Please review or send me a PM. I love to talk (:

This is only an intro so it's going to be much shorter then the rest of the chapters. It will get better then this. I pinky promise !

Big Time Thanks to StainedRosePetal for helping me out with this fic.

I own nothing but the thoughts from my head.

Chapter One : The White Horse and the Cherry Tree.

Games are played, and lives were changed. That's how I ended up here. Well, not here here. Away from my home-town here.

I'm Kate, and this is your look into my screwed up life.

-x-x-x-x-

"Kate Reid" Kelly called. My neck snapped around so fast I swore to myself.

"Right this way" She smiled. I got up,straightened my white cotton dress, grabbed my guitar, and was on my way down a long hallway filled with posters of music groups. I gasped in awe.

"Go into the last door on your right and Gustavo and the boys will we waiting for you."

With that remark, she disappeared. "Wow. A girl could get used to this." Walking down the halls was like a dream. This could be my life. I thought. No. This will be my life. There was no way I could go back home. If where I came from counted as a home that is.

I walked into the room Kelly suggested and saw Gustavo Rocque and the boys from Big Time Rush sat like they did in American Idol. Unlike American Idol, they were in the middle of an argument.

"I don't see why we need a girl in the first place. BTR is doing just fine as it is." Carlos argued. His tan skin really offset everybody in the room. Then again, so did his helmet.

"Because, boy bands don't appeal to boys. With a girl it opens up your market. She's not going to be in all of your songs just a few anyway. Why am I explaining myself to you I'm the boss !" Gustavo exclaimed. It made me cringe. That's my future boss. How exciting.

"Gustavo, none of these girls have even showed us any sort of talent. If I hear anymore Justin Beiber I will walk out." James complained. Ah,he's the pretty one. With some smarts too.

"Excuse me" I said. Glancing across the panel as they all turned my way. I felt bad for interrupting their tirade but then again, I didn't.

" Name, Age, and Place of Origin." Logan said looking down at his clip-board.

"Kate Reid. I'm sixteen. My place of origin is England, but I'm from Grand Rapids, Michigan." I glanced down at my acoustic guitar. I sat down on a stool in the center of the room and pulled up my instrument.

"What will you be singing?" Gustavo asked. Looking at the guitar like it was a foreign instrument.

"White Horse, by Taylor Swift." I smiled, hoping for a smile back. I only got that reaction from Kendall.

"Well lets hear it." Kendall said, still smiling.

Then, I sang. I sang like it was my last chance at life. Which, in all reality. It was.

-x-x-x-x-

After being politely asked to leave and reminded they have my number I felt like crap.

I'm going to have to go back home. Back to him...

"No." I said aloud. "You kicked ass. You heard them, Kate, everybody else had no talent. You did."

You don't know that they liked you. They could have put you in the pile with everybody else. Then it's back to Grand Rapids...

"I hate arguing with myself." I muttered as a slammed the door to the hotel room, and threw myself on the bed. Screamed. Broke a lamp. Then fell asleep.

-x-x-x-x-

"Dance hard, laugh more, turn the music up now Party like a rockstar! Can I get a what now? I swear I'll do, anything that I have to –"

I was rudely woken up to 'Till I Forget About You, my ring-tone.

"Great. Now where did I put that thing?" I groaned as I looked around my bed. Eventually to my night stand and pressed the green button.

"Hello?" I said groggily. I rubbed my eyes as I waited for a response.

"Hey, Kate it's Kendall from Big Time Rush."

I don't know what came over me, but it was probably the fact I just woke up and wasn't thinking straight.

"Yeah right. Goodbye." I sounded as I clicked off, and laid back down on my bed. A minute later I got another phone call. I gave it a few seconds as I read the caller ID. Rocque Records.

Oh, shit.

I hastily picked up the phone. "Hello?"

"Kate it's really me, Kendall. I just wanted to let you know, that this is very hard for me to say."

Great. I'm going back.

I got up and motioned towards my suit case and started to pack up.

"You should be packing right now." I heard him say. No shit sherlock.

"You're going to be going on tour with Big Time Rush. Congratulations." He sounded genually elated. I was in disbelief.

"What? I – I got the gig?" I was holding my excitement. I was ready to bounce up and down on the bed.

"Yes, do you think you make it to Rocque records at 8 am tomorrow?"

"Ye – of course ! I'll be there! Thanks so much." I said smiling to myself and laughing for doubting myself.

"Awesome ! I thought you would be happy to know our first stop is in your home-town of Grand Rapids ! "

Just like that, my world collapsed.

And so did I.

" – Kate? Kate are you there?"

Dial tone.

A/N : So did you guys like it? I will try to get the next chapter up tomorrow. Please review and tell me what you think.
