Well, hello there.

Sorry that it's been forever since I've updated, but I am crushed for time. I have rehearsals for our school's musical everyday! Oh yeah, my homecoming was yesterday, and I was very disturbed by the grinding... O.o

Much thanks for all of the reviews and alerts for the last chapter! I'm super happy... :o)

Disclaimer: I do not own Big Time Rush...sadly.

Jade's Point-of-View:

It was now six o'clock at 2J, and I was getting ready to go out on my date with Kendall.

I'm surprised that he actually asked me, because I thought that 'us' was going nowhere.

I made sure that I hung out with James and the others all day today, because I didn't want to neglect those guys. I told James that Kendall and I were just hanging out like old times tonight. He's not bright enough to know what's really going on, and I want to keep it that way...at least for a while.

Kendall told me to dress not too dressy, but not too casual.

I decided to wear a black crew neck t-shirt, medium wash skinny jeans, and a gray beanie that I stole from Kendall. I slipped on my black moccasins, and walked from my room to the living room.

"Hey," the guys greeted from the orange couch.

I waved back to them and Kendall walked out from the bathroom.

"Are you ready to go?" he asked with a small grin.

"Only if you are," I nodded as he slipped on his Vans at the door.

"Let's go then," he said.

"Bye, Jade! Bye, Kendall! You kids have fun!" my big brother called from the couch.

"Oh, we will," I said under my breath as I walked out the door.

We got into the hallway and shared a glance as the door closed. We both grinned like 5-year-olds and he reached out and took hold of my hand.

"Are you ready for an amazing date?" he asked.

"I don't know if I can handle that much excitement," I joked as we made our way out into the lobby and to the Big Time Rush mobile.

...

We ended up going to the beach for a picnic, which I loved.

He already set out a blanket, and made us dinner. It was tiny, cute sandwiches, and chocolate covered strawberries for desert. Sure, it was a little cliche, but I loved every minute that I spent with Kendall.

After attempting to be romantic, and feeding each other the strawberries, we laid there in silence on the blanket.

"I could stay like this forever," he said into my ear.

"Me too," I said, looking over to his green eyes. We shared a sweet kiss, and returned to staring at the sky. His hand was in mine, and the sun was just beginning to set.

My eyes we beginning to droop, because I was so comfortable. He began to sing to me softly.

"'Cause the world stops;

When I put my arms around ya,

Around ya, and nothing even matters,"

"I'm so glad that I'm here, in L.A.," I said.

"I'm glad that you're here, you don't know how much I missed you," he started rubbing circles with his thumb on my palm.

"I really like you, Kendall," I said suddenly. I rolled over to my side; he did the same to face me.

"I-I like you a lot too," he acted surprised.

His lips formed a cheesy smile, and we leaned forward. Our lips met in a passionate explosion of fireworks. His lips moved in sync with mine, and it felt so right to be with the blonde haired boy. Our soft kiss got sloppier towards the end, as his tongue licked my bottom lip, begging for entrance. His tongue slipped into my mouth, and I felt like it was all a dream.

We pulled apart, breathless. We stared at each other for a brief amount of seconds, and then he kissed my forehead.

"Jade?" he asked, raising his eyebrow.

"Yes, Kendall?" I grinned at him.

"Will you be my girlfriend?"

"Of course," I answered, making him smile like a kid on Christmas morning.

"Awesome!" he said, with a lack for words.

I scooted over, closer to my boyfriend and laid my head on his chest.

We stayed there, peacefully watching the orange-pink California sky until the sun set over the horizon.

He sat up and patted my hand when the darkness set in.

"We should probably get back to the Palm Woods,"

"I'll help you with the blanket,"

And with that, we folded up the blanket and gathered the picnic basket, placing them in the back of the Big Time Rush mobile.

...

We walked into apartment 2J, right when the clock stroke ten o'clock.

"We're back!" I said.

James, Logan, and Carlos were on the couch as usual. They seemed to be watching one of the Transformers movies, and they were sprawled out on the couch with popcorn littering the carpet.

They all looked up and had a weird look on their faces.

"What?" I asked, scrunching up my eyebrows in confusion.

"Why are you and Kendall holding hands?" James asked, pointing to our linking hands.

I didn't even notice until he pointed it out. I panicked, searching for the right words to say. I looked up at Kendall and he shrugged and smiled. I took that as a 'go ahead'.

"Am I not allowed to hold my boyfriend's hand?" I smirked.

"Boyfriend!" the guys yelled, jumping up from the couch.

"When did that happen?" my big brother asked me.

"About 30 minutes ago?" Kendall said, nonchalantly looking down at his watch.

I nodded, letting go of Kendall's hand and going over to sit on the couch.

"Transformers?" I asked Logan and Carlos, pretending like everything was 'normal'.

"Umm, yeah?" Logan shrugged with a dumbfounded look on his face. Carlos had the same look on his face, with his head tilted to the side.

"Can I talk to you?" James came up and grabbed me by the wrist. "Alone," he added, taking me to my guest room and shutting the door behind us. I cringed a little, wondering just what he was going to say. Would he approve? Or would he forbid me to be with Kendall?

He turned around and faced me, furrowing his eyebrows. "What the hell just happened?" he shouted in confusion, waiting for an explanation.

...

Whoop, whoop.

This was a little bit shorter than usual, but I have some big time plans coming up! :o)

Next chapter continues the confrontation between James and Jade!
