No Big time rush yet, sadly. I don't own anything but my original characters and the plot line. Have fun reading this!
I woke up from one of the weirdest dreams of my life dreading school. I have pretty much no friends and I'm pretty much the teacher's pet because they are the only ones who understand me. I quickly got ready for school and raced downstairs to the kitchen for some breakfast. Throwing some toast in the toaster I thought about the video for the first time and ran upstairs to retrieve my laptop. Running back down I popped the toast out of the toaster and signed onto splash-face.
"Oh my god, Am I dreaming?" were the words that came out of my mouth when I saw a comment from Gustavo Rocque's account on my video! He said that he loved my song and that he wanted me to come to Hollywood so that I could be part of his new band he was working on. Quickly, I replied back to his comment telling him that I am heading off to school but I would call him after. I closed my laptop and ran off to the bus stop where my best friend Caleb was waiting for me.
The story behind Caleb and I is very interesting. We met in the first grade back when being friends with the opposite sex was uncool and have been closer then close since. Of course over the years people have asked if we were ever going out which I respond with a "Um, no that would be gross" but strangely Caleb only would laugh awkwardly and rub the back of his neck. Enough with the back story and back to the bus stop!
"Oh my god Caleb! You will never guess what happened this morning! It is beyond epic." I shouted as I hugged him.
"Ouch, first take your voice down a notch or two. Second, let me guess, you managed to get ready and run all the way here without causing yourself or anyone else bodily harm because that would be epic." He sent me his trademark smirk, which made all the girls at school swoon. I smiled and then punched him in the arm.
"No Jerk, I was going to tell you how the Gustavo Rocque commented my video I posted last night but now you're getting the silent treatment all the way to homeroom." I turned and started walking towards the other kids waving and smiling. Caleb grabbed my arm and turned me around before I could get to Jessica, my neighbor.
"You're lying." He said skeptically.
"I double dog triple promise. He really wants to talk to me about my future! What if he wants me to sign with him? I could finally live my dream!" You know I had to do a happy dance and Caleb joined in also! He picked me up and twirled me around. Our merriment was cut short with the bus arriving which made our moods go from super excited to filled with dread.
The day went by so slow because I knew when I got home I would talk to one of my all time favorite music producers about my future with him! Even my favorite class, drama, was a drag for me that is saying something. On the bus ride home I sat in silence, bouncing my leg waiting for the yellow monstrosity to reach my stop. When we got there I grabbed my bag and ran all the way home.
Running up the stairs I squealed in delight for the fact that I was maybe getting my big break. I jumped on my bed, flipped open my laptop and signed onto splash face. There it was, the Gustavo Rocque offered me a recording contract with Rocque Records but he said that he had a surprise and to message him as soon as I could which of course I did right away. I said:
Hello Mr. Rocque,
Thank you so much for even considering signing me with you. I am looking forward to working with a legend like your self. As for permission, I assure you that my parents are one hundred percent okay with it. Now as for the surprise I am sure that anything you say will be perfectly okay with me. I hope that I can get a reply from you as soon as you can for I know you are a busy man. This is in no way myself "kissing up" to you, I am thoroughly excited to work with you.
Sincerely,
Nevaeh Disney
I sent the message and waited for a reply from Gustavo. Strangely, the reply came very quickly but I was too scared to open it. I picked up my phone and texted Caleb to come over to the house immediately. He replied with an ok and was with me in 3 minutes by letting himself in the house. Oh the wonders of having a best friend your parents trust with a key to the house. Anyways, together we opened the message from Gustavo, it read:
Dear Nevaeh,
Your name is very interesting, I like it. As for the details on your recording contract, you will have to come out to California and sign it with a parent present. Also, because I am going to sign you, you will need to move out to Los Angeles and live in the famous Palm Woods. Now it is time for your surprise.
You are going to be working with my boy band called Big Time Rush! They are a group of teenage boys from Minnesota. I call them dogs but seeing as you are extremely pleasant you will not have that inconvience. Their names are Kendall Knight, Carlos Garcia, Logan Mitchell and my least favorite James Diamond. If I were you, I would watch out for James. He tends to be a girl user and I don't want my band to break up due to some teenage drama.
The only thing left we have to do is to set up how you are going to get here. Simply call me on this number: 555-1021 and we can work out all the details. Hoping to hear from you soon.
Signed,
Gustavo Rocque
Quickly, I dialed the number and put it on speaker so that Caleb could listen in. It rang 3 times and when I was about to hang up because I thought he would not answer, he picked up.
"Hello, Gustavo here." Gustavo answered.
"Yes hello, this is Nevaeh Disney. I am calling in regards of the private messages we have been exchanging." I'm of course using my business voice.
"Oh Hey, I was expecting your call. So you ready to be famous Nevaeh?" I could tell he was preoccupied by something else but I brushed it off because he is my future employer.
"Yes I am. Oh and please call me Eva. Would you like to talk to my mother in regards to the travel arrangements?"
"Yeah, you can put her on now." I heard a shuffling of papers in the background and what sounded like a teenage boy's voice. Maybe its one of my band mates. I quickly turned my phone off speaker and ran down to the kitchen where my mom was reading the newspaper.
"Mom! You need to talk on the phone. Gustavo Rocque is on the phone and wants to talk about moving me out to Los Angeles!" I jumped up and down covering the mouth piece with my hand.
Mom simply nodded, took the phone from my hand and walked into my father's office. I ran back upstairs to my room and tackled Caleb with a hug. "Oh my god Caleb! Can you believe it? I am going to be in a band and not only just a band, a band with four other talented singers! This is just like a dream!"
Caleb chuckled from beneath me and nodded his head looking up at me. His eyes were filled with an emotion I could not place and I knew him very well. I cocked my head to the side and raised my eyebrows sort of asking what was wrong. "Eva, you know that you're my best friend. I'm just upset that you are going to be leaving me. Who will I have when you leave?"
"Cal, you are not losing me completely. We can skype all the time and text. The best thing would be for you to come with me but we both know that you can't leave. You're the quarterback of the football team. Who knows, maybe you could get a girlfriend while I'm gone?" I tilted his head from looking away from me to looking into my eyes. He looked like the little boy I met back in first grade. I laid down and hugged Caleb, he rested his chin on the top of my head just like he has done forever. This could be our last time that he and I would be like this.
Mom called up to me and told me to come down. I kissed Caleb on the cheek and dashed downstairs. She told me that I would be flying out to California on Sunday and that I would be picked up at the airport by his chauffer and assistant Kelly who would give me a tour of the Palm Woods. This day has officially been the best day of my life. It feels like the beginning of the rush of my life.
Yay for the first chapter! Haha super sorry for the long delay between posts. I've been super busy. I really hope you guys are ready for a new girl at the Palm Woods! Yes, I know that Gustavo is acting extremely nice in this but there is a reason behind it which will show itself over the course of the story. Keep reading! Oh and Don't forget to review! Even just a "good work" would be appreciated! Love y'all! Kristina!
