(continuing James POV)
I wake up with a huge heart, ready for the day to hit me with its best shot. I'm kind of hanging out with Alex today. She's coming to Roque Records with us to watch us work and I have a feeling Gustavo will be okay with it. I jump out of bed and quickly change into a t shirt and jeans, sliding into my vans. I grab my lucky comb and run into the bathroom across the hallway and comb my hair, making sure it was nice and brushed. I comb for about five minutes surprised my hair was being cooperative this morning. It was so great that I didn't need to use my hair products. It looks that good.
I step out of the bathroom into the hallway, and tip toe into the living room, not wanting to wake Katie as I pass her room. I see Kendall, Logan and Carlos sitting down at the table eating their cereal. They notice me walk in and nod their head at me. I do the same and grabbed a box of Froot Loops and a bowl as I sit down. I pour the cereal in the bowl and grabbed the milk from in front of Carlos and pour in the milk. I take my spoon and dig in, savoring the sugary cereal.
We sit in silence, the only sound is the sound of us chewing our breakfast. Kendall breaks the silence.
"Yo James that girl, Alex, coming with us?"
"Yeah. Speaking of Alex, I have to go wake her. See you guys down in the lobby." I stood up and walked out into the hallway, walking a short distance to 3J. I knock on the door and that odd boy, Max, opens the door.
"James, what are you doing here?"
"I'm here for Alex. I'm showing her around," I answer back. Truthfully, I doubt she told them where I'm really taking her.
"Come in," he says. I come in and he shows me where Alex is staying. I open the door and tip toe in, making sure to not make any noise. I look around and see two beds. Great, which one is Alex? I look at the first bed and walk up the side. I bend over and carefully pull the covers back. Red hair is what I see.i quickly throw the covers back over the person's head and I hurry myself to the other bed. I remove the covers and let out a sigh of happiness when it is Alex I see. She looks so peaceful. I had to control myself from bending over and kissing her soft lips. I tap her lightly but no response. I put both hands on her shoulders and shake her, and her response is her eyes opening quickly and receiving a blow to my stomach.
"Umph!"
"Sorry!" she whispers. I fall on my butt on the ground and she gets up from her bed and kneels down next to me. She grabs my free hand and helps me up. I mumble a thank you and tell her to get ready. She nods her head and waits for me to leave so she can change.
So I'm sitting on the couch in the living room of 3J, glancing at the clock in the kitchen. 7:10 AM. I look down at my hands and hear her door open.
"'Kay I'm ready."
I stand up and grab her hand as she enters the room. We run down to the lobby and catch up with the guys who were about ready to jump into the BTR mobile.
"Whoa guys! Hold up," I yell. They stop and turn around to face us. They see me and are about to make a stupid remark but when Kendall opened his mouth, Alex spoke up.
"Okay guys? No fighting. Even though I love to see people fight, I don't want any today. So let's just get in the car, and go." I look over at her and smile. Man she has an attitude. I love it. She looks back at me and smirks. We look into each other's eyes and I could tell we were having a moment. She blushed and looked down, knowing I felt the same way. I pulled her out of the Palm Woods and dragged her to the car. She jumped in the back and so did I as the guys piled in after us. Logan inserted the keys into the ignition and turned the keys, starting the car. The car groaned to life, and we buckled up, letting Logan drive away from the Palm Woods. BORDER HERE!
We reach the recording studio at the top of Roque Records and run into a tired Kelly. We say hello and introduce Alex to her and they hit it off great. But Kelly had to go make a check to pay for some damages we made the other day. Don't ask what we did. Gustavo stomped out of his office and when he saw us he yelled, "DOGS! Get into the studio NOW or you're all fired!"
"Someone is grumpy," I heard Alex mumble behind me. I smile and we walk in behind Gustavo, telling Alex to sit down behind him. Me and the band stepped into the room and waited for Gustavo to start the music. I saw Alex carefully sit down, trying not to bring attention to herself, and succeed. Gustavo hasn't noticed her yet and man, this is great.
We put on our headphones and start to hear the music playing. As soon as it started, we sang:
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boy
Have you ever had the feeling you're drawn to someone? Yeah
And there isn't anything they could've said or done?
And everyday I see you on your own
And I can't believe that you're alone
But I overheard your girls and this is what they said
Looking for a, looking for a
That you're looking for a boyfriend, I see that
Give me time, you know, I'm gonna be there
Don't be scared to come, put your trust in me

Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Let me take a little moment to find the right words
So when I kick it you it ain't something that you've heard
I don't know what kind of guy that you prefer
But I know I gotta put myself for worse
See I think got the kind of love that you deserve and I heard that
That you're looking for a boyfriend, I see that
Give me time, you know, I'm gonna be there
Don't be scared to come, put your trust in me
Can't you see all I really want to be
Is your boyfriend, can't fight that
Let me down, you know, I'm coming right back
I don't care at all what you done before
All I really want is to be your
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
If you tell me where, I'm waiting here
Everyday like slum-dog millionaire
Bigger than the twilight love affair

Looking for a, looking for a
That you're looking for a boyfriend, I see that
Give me time, you know, I'm gonna be there
Don't be scared to come, put your trust in me
Can't you see all I really want to be

Let me down, you know, I'm coming right back

We finished singing and I looked over at Alex who was smirking. She then mouthed, wow, smooth. I shrugged my shoulder and smiled big at her, then heard Gustavo.
"DOGS, that was amazingly average. Take a five minute break." We took off our headphones and put them on the microphone and walked out of the little room. Gustavo stood up as Alex put her feet up on the sound board. He turned around and screamed.
"WHO ARE YOU?"
"'Supp I'm Alex Russo. Friends of your 'DOGS'" she air quoted.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?"
"James brought me." He quickly turns to me and starts screaming, trying to form words.
"JAAAAA! WHAAAA!DIIIIIIIIIIIII!YAAAAAAAAAA!DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!THAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
"I-"
"I wanted to come and see the place," Alex cut in. He turned back to her and stared at her in anger.
Alex POV
Gustavo stared at me, and I could tell he's pissed. I stand up and smile at him, making him rumble with anger. Yeah, this is great.
"GET OUT! MUSICIANS ONLY!" I don't want to leave.
"Well, maybe I am a musician."
"You are?" asked James. I nodded. "Yeah. Me and my brother. We did a gig at my family's sub shop back in New York," they're impressed. "Yeah, in fact, someone wanted to sign us. But we said no."
"PROVE IT!" Crap. I need Justin for this.
"Let me call Justin here." I pull out my phone and step out of the studio, into the waiting area outside his office. I call Justin and after a couple rings, Justin answers.
"What?"
"I need you to come down to Roque Records."
"Why?"
"I'm in trouble with Gustavo Roque."
"ugh I'm on my way." He hung up on me wait he hung up on me! I'll blackmail him later. I turn to go back in but Gustavo came out and pushed me to the white couch across the room. I stared up at him incredulously and crossed my arms. He just shrugged and pranced back into his room, locking the door behind him. Then Kendall came out of the studio and sat next to me. I crossed my ankles as I set them up on the coffee table in front of us and I laid back against the back of the couch. Soon, Logan, Carlos and James were all sitting around me, staring. I shut my eyes and take in a deep breath, hoping they'd stop. I opened my eyes and sighed loudly. They were still staring. I roll my eyes and say, "Why are you staring at me?"
Logan spoke up. "Well, we had no idea you sang."
"Oh I don't. It was just a one time thing," I explained.
"So you lied?"
"Pretty much. Got a problem with it?"
"No, no just, we've never met a girl like you before. Usually the girls we meet are nice and don't do bad things," Kendall said. "We like it," he continued as they all smiled.
"Wel-"
"Alex!" someone interrupted. I look around the guys and see Justin walking up to us.
"Justin! How'd you get here so fast?" I question.
"Fast taxi driver and no traffic." He replied. Liar.
"So you needed my help," he was saying.
"Yeah."
"Well I'm here. What do you need help with?"
"Remember our song we sang at the Sub Shop?" I asked.
He nodded. "Yeah."
"Well me and you have to play it or Gustavo kicks me out," I put it bluntly. He shook his head and said, "Fine."
I nodded towards James who knocked on Gustavo's office door. I heard the door un lock and his big self poked his head out.
"I'm ready to prove that I'm a musician," I say.
Justin POV
What have I got myself into?
