Preface
Kendall Knight never dreamed he would ever end up in Hollywood with a chance to make all the dreams he had never really thought about come true. He never dreamed about being famous when he was a little boy. He never thought about going to LA to become a singer. He never wanted to be a part of a boy band called Big Time Rush. He never thought about how well he could sing.
For him it was all about hockey. He wanted nothing more than to become a professional hockey player. The pay never mattered to him. The glory never mattered to him. It wasn't about winning or losing. It was about winning a trophy for him. No, all that mattered to him was getting out on that ice and being the best he could be. He wanted to become a great professional hockey player just to prove he could. To prove to everyone who ever thought it was unrealistic it could be done. He wanted to prove it to all the nay-sayers as well as to himself he could defy the odds stacked against him.
He never once thought the odds that would eventually be stacked against him were going to be whether or not he could perform on stage for two hours. Learning how to dance or sing the proper notes wasn't a big priority for him.
Maybe for James who had always wanted to be a singer but not to him, Carlos, or Logan who all had their own dreams they wanted to pursue. Kendall wanted to be a hockey player. Logan wanted to become a doctor. Carlos wanted to be a superhero. James was the one who wanted to be famous. When he was finally given an opportunity to go after his dream the guys supported it and helped him the only way they knew how. Kendall never once thought Gustavo would choose him over James just because he had the guts to stand up to him. Verbally attacking someone actually gained him some points, go figure. The others pretty much had said if they were handed this dream that they'd take it.
Despite himself he found he wanted the dream too after not too long. He found his dreams and goals for becoming a hockey player shifting into becoming a famous popstar with his friends. He found himself wanting BTR to succeed at all costs. He found himself wanting the superstardom despite it all. Kendall actually wanted the things only James had wanted before out of the four of them.
Living in LA was amazing. He loved the Palm Woods though he did find himself missing the icy cold temperatures of Minnesota at times. He had become so accustomed to snow and the cold it hadn't fazed him much growing up so much so he loved the cold snow. The heat of LA got to him sometimes so to keep his head he found a nice ice rink to go skating on. It reminded him of where he came from.
Things were always crazy working at Rocque Records. It was hard sometimes to get along with Gustavo but he managed although he could never keep himself from talking back. Nothing was ever exactly done right. Griffin always wanted something done one way while Gustavo wanted it another and the guys wanted something altogether different. It was very insane at times. Tricks, pranks, and arguments were always involved somehow as they tried to get their demo done. Getting their demo picked was whole other fiasco better left in the past. Once their demo was picked things didn't slow down or get easier as they rushed to get their full album done, released, and their concert together.
Their first concert didn't go off without a hitch either. It was canceled then put back on after Gustavo bought Big Time Rush from Griffin selling everything including his mansion in order to do so. Once the concert was done and they got their tour everything finally fell into place and all that was left was actually going on tour.
Everything though got crazy once the tour was over, at least, they did for Kendall.
According to Griffin who according to Gustavo owns all of their butts has said Kendall sells the best amongst the teen girl audience. It would be to their benefit if he was exposed to the public in a different manner such as television or through film. Griffin seemed to pose it as a suggestion but there was an underlying hint of do it or else lurking beneath the suggestion. So, immediately Gustavo set Kelly on a hunt to find a show or a movie to stick Kendall in to get more exposure to the public.
Kendall was taken to 20 or 30 auditions. He kept claiming he wasn't much of an actor but apparently people seemed to like him. Multiple casting directors gave Kendall callbacks but Gustavo always found something wrong with each one. He kept tossing each callback out one by one as they called Kendall back making Kendall very confused. He thought the point was to actually get a part in a show or a movie but Gustavo already had one in mind. It was a new show casting unknowns and Gustavo thought it would be a good way for Kendall to be exposed. So, Gustavo sent Kendall to the auditions for the new show.
"Hi," he said. Kendall held his hand out to the girl he was playing opposite of for his audition. "I'm Kendall Knight."
"Jo Taylor," she said softly with a bright smile.
A.N. Let me know what you think and whether or not I should continue with this story. It'll be an actual story not one shots. Also it follows the BTR timeline of the first season and will pick up right after their tour. However, the difference is that Jo and Kendall haven't met yet. This is where my story comes in.
So let me know what you think good or bad and if you would like me to keep writing this story for you guys. Just let me know. :)
