A/N What? An update on a Tuesday? Unheard of! But sadly this is the last chapter. But I'm working on the sequel. It takes place a little on tour, but mostly while they have their 2 and a 1/2 months off in France. I think at some point I said that there wouldn't be as much drama, yeah completely disregard that. There is a million times more drama. But that will take me a while before I update that, so I'll probably post a new story. It has 40 something chapters and I finally figured out how I wanted to end it. That one follows the plot line of the show more, so I want to see how the show plays out first. BTW anyone who saw Big Time Decisions, I basically had a heart attack at the end. I really hope he picked Jo. Anyway, enjoy!
Time Skip- One month later- Adelaide's album release party
Adelaide's POV
Today's the day. My album is going to be released. I can't even believe this, I never thought that I would have my own album. For the album release party, I told Gustavo I wanted it to be more laid back than the boys, and at the Palmwoods. Kelly paid Bitters off so we can have it around the pool. I invited everyone from the Palmwoods, along with other officials that Gustavo and Griffin invited. I just have to get ready.
I put on a peach dress with a white bird pattern on it. It had a little brown belt at the waist. I paired it with some brown wedge ankle boot. I curled my hair into waves, and then started to French braid it, but stopped at the bottom of my head so that it was out of my face, but still down.

Olivia was wearing a dress that was a white v-neck tank on top which stopped at the waist and there was a gold belt and it switched to a red skirt that went to about her mid-thigh. She was wearing red pumps that matched the color of the dress. She had her hair down in waves. (www . polyvore dot com / olivias_party_dress/set?id=54769439)
We hooked arms and walked out the door. Everyone would already be there, but Gustavo said that I should 'make an entrance' and Olivia said that she would wait for me. I walked into the lobby and straight to the stage.
"Hello everybody!" I said into the mic. Everyone turned to the stage and I saw Kendall in our usual spot with the rest of the guys and Olivia. I winked him and he winked back.
"So, I would like to say thank you to everyone for coming to this party to help me celebrate." Pause for applause. "I would also like to thank the boys of Big Time Rush and my best friend Olivia for helping me get signed in the first place." I pointed at them and there was more applause. "And last but not least I would like to thank Gustavo for being the best music producer out there. You're not as bad as everyone says you are." I said. There was light laughter and I smiled and Gustavo surprisingly smiled back. "Well enjoy the party, I'll be up later to sing for you guys." More cheers. I got off the stage and walked over to my friends.
"Nice job up there, you look great Ad." Kendall said, I walked up and gave him a quick kiss. He wrapped his arm around my waist.
"Oh hey Olivia I have something awesome to tell you." I said. She looked at me in confusion while all the other guys watched with knowing smiles. I haven't told her about the tour yet.
"Big Time Rush is going on tour across America and Europe and I get to open for them!" I said excitedly.
"Oh my gosh that's awesome Adelaide!" she said and ran and gave me a hug. I hugged her back.
"Oh when are you done with filming?" I asked.
"In about a month." she said.
"Good, your coming with us." I said. Her eyes widened.
"Are you kidding me!?" she yelled. I nodded.
"Nope, Griffin said you could come, and just tell your manger that this will be good publicity for your show." I said. She gave me another hug.
"Oh my god you are the best friend ever!" she said.
"Oh and the last stop is in France so we are staying with my parents for a while because we have time off." I said. She gasped.
"I get to be around your dad for all the time for a couple weeks! This will be heaven!" she said. I laughed.
"My dad is so annoying." I said. She scoffed.
"Don't say that, he's better than my dad." I gasped.
"I love your dad, don't you say that!" I said, she wanted my parents for some reason.
"I just did! Can I have your mom?" she asked.
"Please take her! She's so annoying!" I said
"Maybe that's because you always sass her!" she said. I rolled my eyes and waved my hand. I looked around and saw Rebecca. I picked up a half eaten sandwich.
"Excuse me, I have something I have to finish." I said. I walked over to her.
"Hey Rebecca." I said. She stood up.
"Omg hey Adelaide! I heard your going on tour! That's awesome!" she said. She's just being nice so I'll take her with me. But that's not going to happen.
"Yeah I'm bringing Olivia too because her work will allow it." I said.
"My work is the same way! I could come too!" She said.
"No, you can't come." I said. She looked at me.
"Why? I thought we were friends." I let out a humorless laugh.
"I'm no longer friends with a manipulative bitch like you. You are a backstabber and defiantly not my friend." She looked at me in shock. I looked at the sandwich.
"Oh, I brought these over, I though you might like these leftovers too." I said with I smile. She looked like she was racking her brain for something to say back. I slid my shades on.
"That's right, you can never burn me, I've invested in some shades." I gave her another sweet smiled and a little wave and walked back over to my friends. James, Logan, and Carlos were staring at me with their jaws dropped while Olivia and Kendall were laughing their asses off.
"I knew you had it in you kid! Finally!" Olivia said and gave me a hug. I laughed and turned to Kendall.
"That was hilarious! Where did you get the part about the shades? That was brilliant!" he exclaimed. I laughed.
"Thanks, I got it off a song and thought it fit nicely." I said. He pulled me into a hug.
"I'm proud of you for finally standing up to her." he whispered in my ear. I turned and gave him a quick kiss.
"Me too." I said. Then we heard Kelly's voice come over the loud speaker.
"In addition to Adelaide's album, we have the premier of Kendall and Adelaide's music video for 'Olive You'" she said. I turned to Kendall, excited to see how it turned out. I remember when we filmed it a couple of weeks ago. It was so fun and cute. The lights went down and the video started on the big screen. I leaned into Kendall's side.
It started with Kendall sitting down on a couch in a house. He picked up his guitar and started to play the opening. He started to sing his verse and the first chorus. It cut to scenes of the beach and then to us walking together down the pier with Kendall's arm around me. Then it switched to me sitting in a bedroom, singing my verse. It switched to Kendall leaning in to kiss me, but I was looking in the other direction, when I looked over, he moved away quickly. It switched back to me singing and then back to the beach where "Spider-Man" was holding me and leaning in like he was going to kiss me, but then Kendall came and pushed him away and took me in his arms. It switched back to me in my room, singing. It switched to me standing at the beach by the water, where Kendall walked up and wrapped his arms around me from behind. It switched to Kendall singing and playing. He put his guitar down and started to head for the door. I then got up and left too. It showed us both walking down the street, where we met at a park. It showed us walking at each other in slow motion, with clips of us singing every once in a while. We met in the middle and the sun was setting in the background, I looked up and her took my chin and leaned in and kissed me. It switched to us back at the pier, having a good time. He was giving me a piggy back ride and twirled me around. It switched back to the park, with us both sitting down next to each other and he slid a note into my hand. It went back to the pier where I was giving him a piggy back ride, which was a lot harder than you make think. It switched back to the park where I opened the note and it said "Olive You" I smiled and moved closer and put my arms around him and whispered "Olive You" in his ear. The song faded out and the lights went back on.

I turned to Kendall and hugged him.
"Olive you." I whispered in his ear. He laughed.
"Olive you." he said. I pulled away and kissed him. We pulled away with smiles on our faces. That was such a cute video. I loved it.
"Hey James!" we heard Rebecca yell from across the pool. We looked up and she waved James over. James got up and walked over to her. They talked for a second and then he came back over.
"What was that about dude?" Logan asked.
"She said that we were better as friends." He said. I felt bad. Rebecca toys with people.
"Sorry James, but that's Rebecca. I'm not surprised. At least your finally a free man!" I said, trying to cheer him up. He smiled.
"You know what, your right. I can focus on all the California girls now." he said happily. We all rolled our eyes and laughed. I pretty sure that nothing could make me happier right now. My life was perfect. I had an awesome boyfriend who I loved, 4 other awesome best friends, an album, an upcoming tour where I get to travel all over, something I wanted to do for so long, and finally got Rebecca out of my life. I went through a lot to get it, but it's so worth is. I now know who's there for me.
"Oh guys, I have a song for you that I'm going to perform. You know the last one on the album that you guys don't know about." I said. They all nodded and I gave Kendall a quick kiss then ran up on stage.
"Hey everybody. I'm going to sing a song that I wrote a little while ago, it's dedicated to my 4 best friends and boyfriend, the boys of Big Time Rush and Olivia Williams. It's about everything that I've gone through to get where I am today. I hope you like 'The Show'" I said. I was just going to sing.
I'm just a little bit caught in the middle
Life is a maze and love is a riddle
I don't know where to go I can't do it alone I've tried
And I don't know why
(I started snapping along to the beat)
Slow it down
Make it stop
Or else my heart is going to pop
'Cause it's too much
Yeah, it's a lot
To be something I'm not
I'm a fool
Out of love
'Cause I just can't get enough
I'm just a little bit caught in the middle
Life is a maze and love is a riddle
I don't know where to go I can't do it alone I've tried
And I don't know why
I'm just a little girl lost in the moment
I'm so scared but I don't show it
I can't figure it out
It's bringing me down I know
I've got to let it go
And just enjoy the show
The sun is hot
In the sky
Just like a giant spotlight
The people follow the sign
(I started walking around back and forth across the stage, keeping in beat with the song)
And synchronize in time
It's a joke
Nobody knows
They've got a ticket to that show
Yeah
I'm just a little bit caught in the middle
Life is a maze and love is a riddle
I dont know where to go I can't do it alone I've tried
And I don't know why
I'm just a little girl lost in the moment
I'm so scared but I don't show it
I can't figure it out
It's bringing me down I know
I've got to let it go
And just enjoy the show
Just enjoy the show
(I started snapping again, but this time, the whole audience joined me)
I'm just a little bit caught in the middle

I'm so scared but I don't show it
I can't figure it out
It's bringing me down I know
I've got to let it go

dum de dum
dudum de dum
Just enjoy the show
dum de dum
dudum de dum
Just enjoy the show
I want my money back
I want my money back
I want my money back
Just enjoy the show
I want my money back
I want my money back
I want my money back
Just enjoy the show
The song stopped and the crowd erupted into applause. A huge smile grew on my face. I could not be happier in this moment. I wanted to remember this moment forever. Everything was perfect.
And Love Is A Riddle is officially done! I hope you all liked the story, I am working on a sequel, but most of it is going to take place in France, and I'm going to France and Italy next summer so I want to wait to write that part until I actually see it. I'm super excited! The final song was called "The Show" by Lenka, look it up. I sang it for my end of the year solo in choir in 8th grade and I just really love it. Check out my other stories and I'll see you in my next story!
