Chapter 10
"We're here!" I exclaimed, out of breath from running so far.
"Why are you guys so out of breath?" Kelly asked.
"We just ran all the way from the Palm Woods," Kendall answered, fighting for breath.
"Why? You guys still have the car!" Kelly exclaimed.
I slapped my forehead. "We're so smart," I said, sarcastically.
"Anyways, down to business," Gustavo said.
"What do we need to talk about?" Logan asked.
"Well, Kenny's going on tour with you guys. Griffin thinks Kenny should do a duet with one of the members of Big Time Rush. We need to decide who it is. I say it's Kendall."
"Not this time, Gustavo. As much as I'd like to sing with, like, my best girl friend, this time it's got to be James," Kendall said, pointing to James.
James just grinned and said, "Sure, I'll sing with Kenny."
I swallowed. "Fine."
"Ok, now that that's settled. We need a song for you guys to sing."
"I'll write one. I've already got an idea for one," I said.
"Didn't you just finish writing a song?" Carlos asked. Gustavo looked at me with a gaze that said, "You have a new song?"
"Yes. But I already have an idea for a new one. So, I'll write the duet."
"Ok. Kenny, I want to hear that new song," Gustavo said.
"Another time. We're here to talk about the tour."
"Ok. So, Kenny will open for Big Time Rush. The ending song will be the duet. Kenny, the songs you should sing are White Horse, Change, Year Without Rain, and Love Story. You can come up with the order. Then you will introduce Big Time Rush and run off the stage. Big Time Rush will sing Big Time Rush, Any Kind of Guy, The City Is Ours, and 'Till I Forget About You. I will come up with the order later. Everyone ok with that?"
We all nodded.
"Ok, then! For the next three weeks, we will be preparing for the concert, working on dances, and Kenny, if you could come up with more songs. We need to practice, practice, practice!" Kelly exclaimed.
"Boys! Go see Mr. X for dance practice. Kenny, guitar room. Start on that song."
"Got it!" I called, as I raced to the guitar room.
I had gotten the both parts of the first verse done in an hour and a half. Then, I was called to Mr. X to work on dancing for some of my songs. Two hours later, I went to go record vocals for the CD, and then was finally able to go back to the Palm Woods with the boys.
Two days later, more news came.
I was working on the duet, when Gustavo came in with Big Time Rush.
"Yeah?" I asked, not bothering to look up from the music.
"One, The Telen Show called. They want to have an interview with you and Big Time Rush. Two, you and James are going to be making a music video together," Gustavo said.
"Wait, wait, wait, The Telen Show? And two, what? James and me? In a music video? Huh?"
"Yes, The Telen Show wants an interview. You guys will be on her show in two days. It'll help promote the concert. I just wrote a new song that would work for you and James to make a music video for. Come listen to it. Other dogs, go back to Mr. X. James, Kenny, come with me."
James and I followed Gustavo to the sound booth. James smiled at me and slipped into the booth.
"You go in the booth too, Kenny."
"Me?" I asked.
"Is there another Kenny here? Yes, you. Here's the music. You should be able to pick up on the tune by the time you start singing."
"Ok," I said, taking the music and walking into the recording booth, stopping next to James in front of the microphone.
"Ready?" Gustavo asked.
"Start the music," James said.

"Oh, her eyes, her eyes make the stars look like they're not shinin'
Her hair, her hair falls perfectly without her tryin'
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday
YeYeah, I know, I know when I compliment her, she won't believe me
And it's so, it's so sad to think that she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me do I look okay?
I say
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause you're amazig
Just the way you are
Her lips, her lips, I could kiss them all day if she'd let me
Her laugh, her laugh, she hates but I think it's so sexy
She's so beautiful
And I tell her every day
Oh, you know, you know, you know, I'd never ask you to change
If perfect's what you're searching for, then just stay the same
So don't even bother asking if you look okay
You know I say
When I see you're face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
'Cause girl, you're amazing
Just the way you are
[Together]
The way you are
The way you are
[at same time] (James) Girl (Kenny) Cause
You're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
[James]
'Cause girl, you're amazing
[Together]
Just the way you are
Yeah."
"That's a good song, Gustavo," I commented.
"I know. Because I'm amazing!"
"Sure," I said a bit awkwardly.
"So, when's the interview with The Telen Show?" James asked.
"Tomorrow at noon."
"Tomorrow? Man, I have to keep Aisha home then. She loves dressing me up and she does such a good job."
"Oh, they have make-up teams there."
"So? Aisha will start it off," I smiled.
"Fine. Well, since you guys did such a flawless job on your first run-through, we're going to run through it one more time, then start filming the music video."
"Ok," James and I said, and the music started again.
"Ok, hair, make-up, and wardrobe," I said, listing each of them.
"I call wardrobe!" James exclaimed. I laughed.
"We have professional hair and make-up artists. If James really wants to do wardrobe, I guess we can have him try that," Gustavo mumbled.
An hour later, I came out of the dressing room, wearing dark blue skinny jeans, a purple plaid shirt, and black flats. My curly blonde hair was in a ponytail, with my bangs hanging loose against my face. My normal black eyeliner and mascara completed my face.
"You look awesome," James commented when he saw me.
"Thanks. You look good too," I answered, and walked by him, taking my place for the music video.
The scene for the music video began with a picnic, where James and I held hands walking up a small grassy hill.
We sat down on a picnic cloth and the music started. Through the duration of the music, I would be walking around, or dancing to no music, while James would stare at me lovingly. Finally, at the very end of the song, James and I were supposed to kiss. This was the part I was dreading the most, but I kept telling myself that it was just acting.
Finally, our lips met at the very end and I felt what I was desperately hoping I wouldn't.
I had felt everything with James that I hadn't with Dak. That could only mean one thing- I still loved James. But that would only lead to heartbreak. Again. I couldn't deal with that. This was going to be one secret best kept secret.
Finally, Gustavo yelled, "Cut!" and I immediately broke our kiss, standing up and walking towards Gustavo, trying to make the kiss seem like no big deal. But I could feel James's eyes on me as I walked away.
Finally, it was the day of The Telen Show. I was nervous the whole time I was waiting backstage.
Big Time Rush and I were each supposed to perform a song before the interview, and I had chosen to sing White Horse.
I went out there, performed White Horse and felt the biggest adrenaline rush I had ever had. Performing was so much fun. I was going to have a blast on tour.
Then, it was finally time for the interview.
"Helloooooooooooo, viewers! And welcome to The Telen Show! I'm your host, Helen! And tonight we have some very special guests! Gustavo Rocque's latest projects: Big Time Rush, and Kenny Griffin!" Helen exclaimed.
"Hey, Helen! Thanks so much for having us here!" Big Time Rush and I exclaimed.
Helen asked us a bunch of questions, before she got to one that bugged me particularly.
"So, Kenny, we want to know, is it true that you and Dak Zevon are an item now?"
"What?" I shrieked.
"We've heard rumors that you and Dak are dating now. Care to share?"
"We're not dating. We had one date, and I realized I wasn't ready to date again. I just barely broke up with my most recent boyfriend, and I realized that I wasn't ready for another one. Who started the rumor?"
"Dak Zevon himself!"
"What? No, no, we're just co-workers. Nothing more," I answered.
"Because you're still in love with James, from Big Time Rush?"
"What?" I shrieked again. Not only had she just spoken out loud what I had kept bottled up inside of me for the past two weeks, she had said it out loud in front of the whole world! And him!
"No," I said, quickly.
"Kenny and I are just friends as of now," James cut in.
"So, there may be another Jenny or Kames soon?"
"Uhhh, I'm not comfortable with that question as of now. Next one please!" I said quickly.
More questions passed, thankfully not as embarressing as those two, and finally the show was over.
"Thanks so much for being here," Helen said, at the end.
"Thanks so much for having us!" I exclaimed.
"Thank you for watching and join us next week on The Telen Show!" We waved and then the show was over.
"That was so awkward," I said.
"Bet it was," Carlos chirped. I shot a small glare at him.
"Sorry," he said quickly.
"Now all there is left to do is finish the songs, dances, and then the tour!" Gustavo exclaimed. We all cheered.
"Oh, Gustavo!" I exclaimed. "I finished the duet!"
What did you think? Just for the record, I totally made up The Telen Show. Sorry if the song was a little confusing- I was trying to figure out how to write a duet :P Review please! Reviews make me upload faster ;)
