A Big Time Announcement
Lauren's P.O.V.:
Since Thanksgiving, it has been pretty crazy here in Brooklyn besides everyone getting set for Christmas. I was in the diner with Keith on my laptop looking up anything about Gustavo Rocque's new project. Why you might ask? Matt and I auditioned for him back in the summer of 2008 after Ariana, C.J and Jeanette moved. I wanted them to come back and audition with us but they had school. I can honestly understand what they were going through. Keith was with me in the diner lounging around while Jess and Hector were playing cards.
"Anything yet Lauren," Keith asked me on this lazy Sunday. "Not yet Keith, I keep doing refreshes and nothing is showing up on the news," I told him. "Lauren's right that is a little odd. Normally any news would pop up on Google News," Jess said placing down a club card. "Yeah. Hey have any of you seen Sean? I texted him a few minutes ago to come over," I asked. "I don't know sis," Hector told me. "Lauren," a voice sounded outside. I turned around in my chair to see Sean running towards me and saying my name in excitement as he entered the diner. "Woah easy there cowboy. Is there a rodeo," Shock asked. I had to giggle a little bit. "No," Sean answered. "What is it dude," I asked. "The announcement is made on the Clever TV website," he told me.
"WHAT," I asked out loud. "Yes go on the website," he told me. I went on the Clever TV website to see a bold headline posted there a few seconds ago reading "Gustavo Rocque can turn ordinary teens into pop stars," "On my gosh. Hector text Lisa. Guys get over here," I told them excitedly. They came over to the laptop as I clicked on the article headline. "Just in the last few years since Boys in the Attic and Angel, Angel longtime record producer Gustavo Rocque, of Rocque Records was down in the dumps in searching for his next big act. "I was trying to find the fire I was looking for," he recalls to us hours after his press conference. He went on to say he couldn't find it anywhere though a few locations stood out to him like Brooklyn or Florida. But at last, he found it in a town in Minnesota called Sherwood. "I never expected to find the fire I need there," he tells us. "It was like a diamond hidden in all the pile of sand," he said, "I read the first portion of the article.
"Yet in the midst of all that sand and pile, Gustavo was able to find the person he was looking for who stood up to him at the auditions in Minnesota because he insulted his best friend. Kendall Knight age 17 tells us he was doing this for his friend James Diamond also 17. "I didn't want James to get hurt but when I heard him say he had no talent, I just cracked," he says remembering the day it happened. James could have not been more grateful to his friend though his dream was hurt. But a few days later that all changed. "I called him when I was working at the grocery store and wanted to tell him I made my decision about the record opportunity he presented to my family in the hours after my audition at my house," he recalls," Hector read the next paragraph.
"Kendall was able to conveince Gustavo to take his two best friends Logan Mitchell age 16 and Carlos Garcia age 16 to turn them into a singing group. At first the deal was going to be crazy but Kendall told us he would never turn his back on the friendships he had created with the boys even if it means fulfilling a destiny. Since then, the deal was made and until today the announcement we waited for finally arrived with the dropping of their hit single Big Time (Rush). "I'm really looking forward to working with these dogs and I know the label will be ready to hear their music soon along with us getting fans for the boys and I could be more thrilled to welcome Big Time Rush to the music industry," he says grinning at the boys," Shock read the next paragraph.
"The band has yet to announce a demo or an E.P pretty soon but for now they are introducing themselves to the music industry and look forward to making it to the big time because their leader Kendall once said, "Opportunities like this come once in a lifetime,"," Keith read the last part while Lisa and Jess looked over his shoulder. Mario joined in as well looking over. "That was awesome," I squealed. "Yes finally word on his project so you can present it to class Lauren," Sean told me with a hug. "Hey you were looking for it too Sean don't get me wrong," I told him. "Yeah you're right Laur," he told me.
"Does this mean you are going into the boyband phase," Hector asked me. "Yes," I told him. "Oh God help me," he said crossing himself as we just giggled. "What is the truth," he told us. "More truthful then you have juggle snowballs while shirtless," Shock asked. I howled like a wolf and so did the others as we just joked with Hector. Honestly, I knew he had to take up the punishment so what could happen?

Logan's P.O.V.:
The guys and I were in our room at the Palm Woods hotel as we finished today with a whole bunch of interviews and conferences with the labels. I was looking out the window observing the clouds and how they formed some shapes I could never figure out. "Logan, you okay," Kendall asked from behind me. "Yeah, looking out the window," I told him. "I see. Have you been thinking about something," he asked again. "I've been thinking about my destiny. I know I'm destined for something, I don't know what it is and I wonder where the other destined person could be," I told Kendall.
"Like the one in your dreams," James asked coming over. "Exactly James," I told him. "I don't know Logan but I'm sure one day it will be an eye opener for us," he told me as I walked back into my bedroom and closed the door.
