Big Time Rocque Star

Big Time Beauty-

*Palm Woods*

"Aww!" I heard the guys say when I hit the surface of the pool. I was attempting to break the underwater fart record again. "You got the camera wet again!"

I punched the air, disappointed that I spent almost 30 minutes eating 7 cans of beans and almost drowning underwater.

"That's not the only thing you got wet!" We heard Bitters behind us. He was soaked and the new laptop he was holding was soaked too. We all got ready to hear his next set of complaints. "I'm sure Gustavo would be willing to pay for my, now, damaged laptop."

"Sorry, Mr. Bitters." We said in unison as we watched Bitters stomp into the Palm Woods lobby.

Kendall sighed and probably spoke for all of us when he said that we've got to stop breaking stuff. I got out of the pool and dried myself. My phone started ringing and the caller ID was Kelly, I hesitated to answer by looking at the guys since it was our day off. Logan brushed it off and gave me the signal to just answer it. I picked up the phone from the lounger it was on and flipped it open to answer it.

"Carlos, get the guys over here. Gustavo's got some things to go over with you." Kelly always thought of nicer things to say that really meant that Gustavo's got some more orders and we should get ready to get our heads blown off.

"Okay, we'll see you there." I said flipping my phone closed. "Looks like Gustavo wants us at the studio!"

Kendall, James, and Logan slouched altogether and groaned. "But it's our day off!" James whined.

I shrugged and told them it sounded important. We all seemed to swallow our complaints and dragged ourselves to Rocque Records.

*Rocque Records*

"Race you to Gustavo's office!" James screamed as he pushed me into the wall.

"Ooh! I'm gonna get you James!" I yelled as I chased after him.

We ran into wall after wall, door after door. Finally reaching Gustavo's office, I jumped but James beat me and opened the door, leaving me unable to stop myself. I tripped and smashed into one of Gustavo's platinum records.

"I'm okay!" I said, still dizzy from my fall.

Within seconds the studio was full of Gustavo's screams. Kelly quickly gave Gustavo bottled water and patted his back. "Just tell them why they're here, so they can go, and nothing else can be broken."

"DOGS! My niece is going to be recording with us. She'll be here in a few minutes. While she's here, I don't want any of you boys trying to pull anything with her. I'm warning you, she's beautiful."

The four of us laughed like we had just heard the funniest joke ever. How could any relative of Gustavo's be "beautiful"?

"I'm SERIOUS! My last few groups fell hard for her and ended up falling apart. If you monkey dogs try anything… YOU'RE FIRED! She'll be staying at the Palm Woods, so you'll have time to get to know each other. DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT, FALL FOR HER!"

"Yeah, sure, you got it!"

"No problem."

"For sure."

"Yup!"

All our responses were followed by more of our hysterical laughters. We just couldn't believe why Gustavo was making such a big deal out of it. She probably looked, smelled, and sounded like an ogre. No offense to Gustavo and all.

As we were starting to relax, someone knocked on the door. "Uncle Goose?" a voice said behind it. It sounded nothing like an ogre-ish voice like we'd expected.

Kelly opened the door revealing, what Gustavo was saying, a beautiful girl. We all watched as she walked in and greeted Gustavo with a hug and small talk. She had wavy brown hair, my height, a pretty face, and a cute voice. Her skin looked soft too.

"Boys, this is Star. I expect you guys to work well with her and make her feel at home at the Palm Woods." Gustavo eyed us like a guard.

"You guys are Big Time Rush?" she said pointing at us.

We all seemed to be Star struck. She was beautiful, Gustavo wasn't kidding.

James stepped up, flipped his hair, gave her one of his smiles that he usually used to get a girl's attention and said "Yes we are, and I'm James."

Kendall and Logan introduced themselves after James.

She looked at me and smiled. She was so pretty I forgot to smile back. I guess she took it the wrong way, because she frowned after.

"What's your name?" she turned away from the guys to face me.

It startled me because it felt like she was singling me out. "I'm… I'm…" Geez, she was so hot.

"That's Carlos." Gustavo said finishing me off. "He's the goof ball… actually… they're all goof balls. James just loves himself, Logan's more of a nerd, and Kendall's just a stubborn hockey head."

She smiled and rolled her eyes, "Uncle Goose, how come you never have anything nice to say about your bands?"

"BECAUSE THEY'RE HORRIBLE, AND I HATE THEM!" Gustavo was about to start another one of his rampages until Star answered him back.

"Then why do you even bother writing songs for them?"

Gustavo quit yelling and had to think of an answer, after a while, he gave up and crossed his arms. It was pretty funny the way she talked to him like that. It kind of reminded me of us.

"Kelly, show Star the lyric sheets for the songs she'll be recording with us."

Before walking out the door with Kelly, she gave Gustavo another hug and said bye to each of us. When she got to me, she smiled and said "See you later." Again, I was too shocked to say anything and her smile disappeared as she just went ahead and walked through the door.

"CARLOS!" Gustavo screamed just as soon as the door was closed. "Pull yourself together! There is no way she'll fall for you."

"Yeah, she's not even all that pretty anyway." James said which was really weird because he was usually the one who had the advantage at whatever girl he saw.

"Don't worry Gustavo, I've got Jo. No need to tell me twice." Kendall said leaning on James' shoulder.

Logan looked at all of us and said "Guys, I think you'll know what'll happen if Camille finds out I'm 'crushing' on a new girl. So, I'd rather not risk my chances."

Gustavo looked backed at me and gave me one of his death defying stares. "You got it? Do NOT, fall for her." I nodded but I couldn't help not thinking about her.

I just had to open my mouth, "But Gustavo, she's so pretty!"

Logan nudged me and gave me a look that said don't even try. Gustavo put his fingers on his temples and paced around the room.

"Boys, you can be friends with her, best friends, I don't care. Just don't fall for her. I don't need you dogs fighting over her and end up breaking up."

Kendall, James and Logan seemed to be okay with it. So I just nodded once and lost myself in one of my fantasies that sometimes involved anything hockey, crazy, food, and this time… stars.
