Chapter Two: A Love Song

After a few days of being in L.A, the boys made sure I was comfortable. On my second day Carlos showed me where we record our music, and introduced me to Logan and James, the other two members of the band he was a part of, Big Time Rush. He also introduced me to Kelly, Gustavo's assistant. She was really nice. I introduced the boys to my older brother Mike and my father. My dad said he didn't like them because of the way they stared at me. I told him he was imagining things, they were just my friends.

I had my iPod on with my headphones on and blasted my music. I started to sing along to the music that was currently playing as I walked down to the pool. "Stickwitu" by The Pussycat Dolls.

"I don't wanna go another day,

So I'm telling you exactly what is on my mind.

Seems like everybody's breakin' up,

They're throwin' their love away.

But I know I got a good thing right here,

That's why I say...hey

Nobody gon love me better

I'ma stickwitu forever

Nobody gon take me higher

I'ma stickwitu

You know how to appreciate me

I'ma stickwitu, my baby

Nobody ever made me feel this way,

I'ma stickwitu"

I felt strong hands on my shoulders and I jumped and screamed lightly. I turned around to see Carlos smiling.

"Sorry, didn't mean to scare you", he scratched the back of his head.

"No it's okay Carlos", I smiled back at him.

"You know", he began, "you're really good."

"Thanks, my mom sang that song to my dad. People were trying to break them up but my mom made sure he knew that he was the only one for her."

"So your mom is a singer too? Now I want to hear her voice too." I looked down and he knelt down to look at my face. "What's wrong Mia?"

"You cant hear her sing. No one can, not anymore.. She died last year in a car accident just before my birthday.. It was a drunk driver.." Before I knew it I was crying.

"Mia don't cry. I'm sorry", he almost sounded as if he were going to cry.

"Don't, its ok, you didn't know Carlos. I'll just stay here and sing maybe swim later."

"Ok, I'll leave you alone. And Mia, I really am sorry." his chocolate brown eyes looked sad then he smiled and I knew he was ok.

A few months later

The boys and I have gotten really close these past few months. Soon they all knew my story. That my mom had died and we were barely getting by until I nailed my audition. Now we were doing way better. Gustavo likes to call the boys and I "DOGS!" all the time when we have to be in the studio but eventually you get used to this life. It can be hectic and you have to be in the studio the minute Gustavo has a song so he can it in to Griffon, Gustavo's boss.

Gustavo has been getting me to sing some songs for my self titled debut album but now he wants me to sing a love song. I've tried and tried but Gustavo says I need to be better. The boys were there listening to me as I tried to get better but then the big question came.

"Mia, have you ever been in love?" Kelly asked when she pushed the button to speak while I was in the recording booth.

I paused. "Um, I don't know."

Kelly gave me a smile. "Have you even gotten your first kiss?"

I felt my face erupt in in pink as my hazel eyes widened. Did she really ask me that in front of the boys? They were right there! I shook my head and soon after the boys huddled together and began talking. What was going on?

"Get out the booth Mia", Gustavo said "You need to be in love to sing a love song!" he roared. "Griffon wants a love song on this album so go out there and fall in love!"

I got out the booth and cocked an eyebrow. "It's not that easy Gustavo"

"Well make it easy!" he roared once again. Did I say you get used to this life? Well you do, just not Gustavo. The boys have been here longer so they knew Gustavo better.

"Fine", I muttered and walked out.

"That was a bit harsh", I heard Logan say from the other side of the door.

"That was a bit harsh", I heard Gustavo mock him, "I don't care!"

What do you do when your boss wants you to fall in love or you can be possibly fired? I have no idea. Soon I heard a tap on my door but Mike had gotten up to get it. Maybe it was one of his dates.

"Yeah she's over there" I heard Mike say. Soon Logan appeared in my room.

"Sorry how Gustavo was acting earlier. You get used to it." he laughed a little.

"The four of you got used to that?" I laughed, "That's hard to believe."

"How about I take you out for ice cream to make it up to you?" he flashed his pearly whites.

"Really? Do I even get sprinkles?" I said sarcastically.

"Oh ha-ha" he said mockingly, "Only if you're good."

Soon Logan and I were at Baskin Robbins, my favorite place to get ice cream. I told Logan this a few months ago and I was surprised he remembered.

I got chocolate ice cream and Logan got strawberry. We talked and laughed. He told me about all the silly things he and the boys did and how he pranked himself on their own prank holiday. I laughed so hard.

"Thanks Logan", I said lightly after taking another bite of my chocolate ice cream.

"Huh? For what?" he asked.

"For making me laugh. I haven't laughed this much since my mom died.." my voice trailed off. I felt Logan put his arm around me and lift my chin with his free hand. He looked at me and smiled. His eyes were a chocolate brown just like Carlos'. I felt my self get lost in his eyes as if I dove into an ocean.

"It's my pleasure. I don't want to see you sad Mia"

His face was inches away from my own and soon our lips met. This was Logan who kissed me, the one everyone described as the complete opposite of James, the ladies man. Yeah Logan is extremely cute and has a beautiful voice but it felt wrong. Suddenly I realized what was happening. I broke our kiss and pushed him then pointed my finger at him.

"Thief!"

Logan looked surprised and hurt. "What are you talking about?"

"You stole my first kiss! Thief!" I knew I was being dramatic but I really wanted my first kiss to be with someone I had strong feelings for. Logan was a great guy but I didn't feel like my first kiss was supposed to be with him.

"I-I'm sorry Mia.." Logan looked really hurt. Not because I pushed him, but because I broke our kiss.

"Logan it's ok", I sighed, "I didn't mean to hurt you."

"No, I'm sorry Mia. I really like you but I should have waited until I was sure you felt the same way…" his voice trailed off and his eyes wandered. I followed his eyes to the entrance of Baskin Robbins to see Carlos walk in. His lips were parted slightly. I guess he saw the whole thing. He looked a little mad, then his face returned to it's normal cheery nature.

"Mia, Logan, you're a couple? You've been keeping it a secret?" he asked looking at me instead of Logan.

"Carlos no were-" Logan cut me off.

"Why do you want to know?" he asked. What was going on?

Carlos turned his head to look at Logan. "Because you guys are my friends" he replied. "And if you're dating and it's going well then Mia can sing her song." At his last few words he sighed.

"Carlos we're not dating." I finally answered without being cut off.

"Then why did he kiss you?" He was beginning to sound like Mike and I didn't like it. Mike was over protective all my life and I love him for that but there were times he wouldn't shut up. Some things just weren't his business. Yeah I was interested in Carlos but I think what just happened between Logan and I should stay between Logan and I.

"Because I like Mia" Logan quickly answered. Whoa way to step out of the shy nerd category Logan.

"Well.." Carlos began but then he paused, "Fine.." he turned around and left. What was his problem? Was he hanging around Mike too much? Or.. Carlos likes me? I had no idea.

"Sorry about that Mia" Logan said, breaking me from my thoughts.

"No, no it's ok Logan."

Later we were back at Roque Records because Gustavo tried to ask me to sing the song again. I tried but he said it was still no good. They stopped the music and Carlos stepped forward and pressed the button so I could hear him talk.

"Hey Mia, remember a few months ago when you were singing that song your mom sang to your dad?" I nodded. "Use that emotion you had when you sang."

"Carlos that was different, it was my parent's love, not my own."

"Mia, think of your parent's love then. Love is love right?" I heard Kendall's voice say. I saw him standing behind Carlos.

"I believe in you" Carlos said, his dark brown eyes staring into mine.

"Ok", I nodded. "Play the music" This song I was singing wasn't my own. The other songs on the album were. Gustavo thought if I remade another artist's song people would recognize it and it would get me some attention. He asked me what song I would like to remake which was odd considering Gustavo thought we were always wrong. I chose "One Word" by Elliott Yamim. He was my mother's favorite artist and this was my favorite song.

"This one's for you" I said into the mic just before the music started.

Soon I was up to the chorus.

"One word

Is all I need to say exactly how I feel

One word

A single word that's from the heart and keeps it real

One word

And baby I know this one fits you to a tee

One word

All I can say is amazing"

Ok here's Chapter 2! I hope you enjoyed it! I think it's still short so I'll make Chapter 3 longer and with more drama! :]
