whatIfeel- aha, I know it's been long and I'm sorry for that! My Christmas has been so hectic that I haven't had any personal time to myself. Well, I'm glad you like the whole Kids Choice Award thing, I didn't know how the readers would all react seeing as it actually happens and it's not fictional. Thank you but I don't think this story deserves all the praise you give it! And yeah, that's the plan to write a story for each of them. My James one is coming along, I've got a plot for the Logan one and I think I may have an idea for my Carlos one, but for the Carlos one I wasn't too sure. I wasn't going to make an OC as I thought that Carlos was so in love with the Jennifers that there needed to be a story with one of them, or I could bring in an OC to the Jennifers, I don't know, but I think the Carlos story will be the last story because I have progressed so much further on the other ideas. Thanks for the review : )
msdancerchick15- Aww, thank you : ) Well, here is the next chapter and I hope it was worth the wait for you, who said it stopped being a Kecho fic ;) or has it even begun to be a Kecho fic? It could change to a Lecho fic or a Cecho fic! Thanks for the review : )
EvilMonkeyBabyD- Yeah, I love Michael Buble too! Yes, don't worry I am going to bring in a new OC for James, gradually though. Don't worry, I know how this OC will come into the story, you're just going to have to wait and see what happens ; ) and yeah, you know how I make my OC's, definitely with a unique name, you can count on that! Thanks for the review : )
TheCooliest- Well I'm glad my reviews make you happy, though I'm sorry it was such a late update with no response to your earlier review from the last chapter, it makes me feel so unpunctual and harsh! Baha, in any case thank you for reviewing again. But don't worry, I won't just not update without a valid reason. The Kids Choice Awards was the idea I had for Echo and Kendall to see each other again, but I didn't know whether everybody would like it because I'm mixing in a TV show with an actual awards ceremony that isn't in Big Time Rush. Here's the update, on time this time! Thanks for the review : )
TheNamesMrsSchmidt- Awww, wow! Thank you so much but I really don't think I deserve that amount of praise that you give me! Aha, who's you're friend? None of my friends actually go on FanFiction, I don't think any of them know about it. I actually haven't told anyone I write, I guess it's just a little hobby of mine. Well, here's the update and I hope you like it, thanks for the praise filled review : )
BigTimeFan50- Well, you know how I create drama, with any awkward or negative situation available ; ) thanks for the review and I hope you like this chapter :D
Kiki61058- I don't want to make Echo's life too perfect by letting her win every single award she's nominated for, considering this is the first time she's been nominated for something and her first awards show! Well, you know that it's going to be some massive award drama when the two meet or see each other face to face again. I'm so jealous, I've never been in touching distance of an iPad, let alone the iPad 2, is it as good as everyone makes it out to be? Thanks for the review : )
annabellex2- Thank you, I appreciate your praise! Don't worry, I always try to squeeze in time for writing so here's the next chapter I've been working on, thanks for the review : )
brightSTAR- Wow, I admire how much you love this story but I don't think it deserves the amount of praise you give it, seriously! Baha, doesn't everybody love the bushy-eyed pervert at heart? Aha, loving how protective you are over Echo! Thank you again and once again, I really don't deserve all this praise, really! My stories are just like anyone else's on FanFiction! Thanks for the review : )
Hi I'm Chelsea- Well, here's the next chapter you've been waiting for! Well, don't you just love an awkward situation? I know I do. Awww, I'm touched that you love this story so much :') thank you for the update and I hope you like it : )
Gigi- Well, I'm responding to you now, whether you like it or not! Aha, well the new story won't be up till I finish this one, I really don't trust myself when attempting to multi-task with two stories, I'll begin to lose interest and my chapters will be shit and I won't be focused, so with the James story, I'm just writing tiny amounts when I've finished chapters for this story. Who doesn't love Kendall? Everybody gotta love their bushy-eyes pervert! Naww, well the guys are back now, so you don't have to worry anymore. Yeah, I think she's just a little bewildered at being in an awards show to begin with! James will realize that blocking Echo out will not only hurt himself, but hurt Echo and that's something he really doesn't want to do. Here's the update and I hope you enjoy it. Thanks for the review : )
TheClaire24- Thank you, the award idea was planned for how Echo and Kendall are forced to look each other in the eye over their time apart. I wasn't sure how everyone would take it as it's mixing the fictional TV show with the awards ceremony that actually happens. Jett's always been cocky on the TV show, I just make him less of an asshole. Well, all I can say is that Echo is in for a bumpy ride and she might not be enjoying the show for much longer. Thanks for the review! : )
rainicorn- Well, it's only because I'm working on a James/OC story right now! I'm sorry, I just love cliffhangers, they amuse me! Well, I don't want to tell you what happens, I'll let you read and find out so I don't spoil it for you. I know, everyone is missing Kecho moments, including me but those moments aren't going to be the same again as they've both changed from the last story…so maybe they will be new moments? Don't worry, soon is all I'm going to say, soon! Aha, thank you for the praise though I doubt the chapters are that amazing! Well, here's a chapter before New Years! It's my 2012 gift to everyone to start the year, happy new year! Thanks for the review : )
socoolio- Aww, thank you for the praise and the love but I doubt my story deserves all the praise you give it! Well, James will realize soon that blocking Echo out is not only hurting him, it's hurting Echo too and that's something he never wants to do. Aha, I'm letting the tension build for Echo and Kendall's face to face meeting, I think everyone is beginning to anticipate it! Well, I've responded to your review this time, whether you like it or not ; ) thanks for the review : )
Silver Eyed Slayer- here's the update! Thanks for the review : )
We were seventeen and invincible
Had the world figured out
And the girl on my shoulder
Told me everything's gonna be all right
And everything was gonna be all right
She's Got a Boyfriend Now- Boys Like Girls
Screams deafened the arena as the lights dimmed. As the music started up, the four guys literally jumped up from under the middle of the stage and started singing a song I knew all too well.
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boy
Girls literally went crazy as they began to sing, dressed in the same clothes as their VT (video tape) appearance. I hadn't heard them sing, or one of their songs in a long time.
Have you ever had the feeling you're drawn to someone? Yeah
And there isn't anything they could've said or done?
And every day I see you on your own
And I can't believe that you're alone
But I overheard your girls and this is what they said
The four of them jumped around stage doing high intensity choreographed moves while smiling at the standing pit of little fans, high fiving to them and winking. When Kendall sung, it was weird, just hearing his voice just made me feel weird, anxious, on edge, it was just his voice overall.
Looking for a, looking for a
That you're looking for a boyfriend, I see that
Give me time, you know, I'm gonna be there
Don't be scared to come, put your trust in me
Can't you see all I really want to be
Is your boyfriend, can't fight that
Let me down, you know, I'm coming right back
I don't care at all what you done before
All I really want is to be your
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
They loved it up on stage, their beams on their faces as they danced with the dancers and didn't miss a beat with their singing.
Let me take a little moment to find the right words
So when I kick it you it ain't something that you've heard
I don't know what kind of guy that you prefer
But I know I gotta put myself for worse
See I think got the kind of love that you deserve and I heard that
James' voice did the same to me, but it made me more worried than anything, I just wanted to clear the air with him.
That you're looking for a boyfriend, I see that
Give me time, you know, I'm gonna be there
Don't be scared to come, put your trust in me
Can't you see all I really want to be
They seemed more like a band then they were nearly 2 years ago, they interacted with each other and just seemed comfortable with one and other.
Is your boyfriend, can't fight that
Let me down, you know, I'm coming right back
I don't care at all what you done before
All I really want is to be your
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
If you tell me where, I'm waiting here
Every day like slum-dog millionaire
Bigger than the twilight love affair
I'll be here, girl, I swear
I smiled broadly at Carlos singing as girls screeched loudly for him. He still was a little cutie. The guys then pointed to the back of the stage where Snoop Dogg walked out, rapping.
So we should down the ride
Or do I gotta slide
I know you need a boyfriend
And I can be the guy
I help you open up even if you're shy
She might be the one
I see it in her eyes
I see it in her swag
She be on the fly
Gucci bag
Chanel purse
I need her in my life
I'm the one for her
And she's the one for I
This could be paradise if we do it right
Looking for a, looking for a
That you're looking for a boyfriend, I see that
Give me time, you know, I'm gonna be there
Don't be scared to come, put your trust in me
Can't you see all I really want to be
Is your boyfriend, can't fight that
Let me down, you know, I'm coming right back
I don't care at all what you done before
All I really want is to be your
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
(Your boyfriend)
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
(Your boyfriend)
All I really want is to be your
(Boyfriend)
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
All I really want is to be your
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
Your boy, boy, b-b-boy, b-b-boyfriend
All I really want is to be your
As Kendall finished the last line I watched in amusement as Snoop Dogg got completely covered in slime from James and Carlos, shooting a massive slime gun at him each.
We all cheered loudly, I was mostly cheering for Snoop Dogg.
"Right now, give it up for Corey Monteith and Lea Michelle who's presenting the next award." The over voice guy said as both Corey and Lea jumped up on Slime Island.
"Oh, wow. I'm really scared." Lea admitted looking at all the slime. "Me and Corey are so glad to be here to present the award for Favourite Male Breakthrough."
"You know on Glee our cast is like a family but these nominees take it to a whole new level." Corey said, clearly reading the prompt.
"What do you mean?" Lea asked.
"They're all brothers. Well not all of them are, two of them are. You know, both two of them are."
"Right." Lea nodded.
"You know- I mean-"
"Okay, Corey. It's okay. And the nominees are… Nathan Kress…Noah Munck…Cole Sprouse… and Dylan Sprouse. And the award goes to…" Lea trailed off as some person in a chicken costume jumped on stage, jumped around Slime Island before 'laying an egg' and running away. Corey jumped to the box that had been laid.
"Dylan Sprouse." He announced, showing the box to the camera.
"I would like to thank all of you, I would like to thank Cole especially because he's a little goober and he hasn't won this award for which he has been nominated for it 3 years in a row. I'd like to thank my mom and my dad and it's nice to know that after 6 years there are still people watching besides my grandmother." Dylan grinned when he got up on stage and accepted the award.
"And now, put your hands together for our next presenter, Jett Stettson!" The over voice said and out walked from the back of the stage Jett to which girls were happily screaming.
"I'm here to give us all a bit of a break from TV, but of course, you can never get enough of me." Jett smiled into the podium microphone as he read his prompt; even though it was a prompt it was probably what he would jokily say to me. "So, I'm here to present the Best Breakthrough Act, the nominees are… Miranda Cosgrove…Victoria Justice…Cherry Boom… and Willow Smith. And the winner is…" Jett said as he ran over to a box next to the podium and opened it up, a human hand shot up out, and on the palm of the hand it said Cherry Boom.
I cheered loudly, even though I wasn't exactly on 'friendly' terms with the band and I pretty much hated every single one of them, without my lyrics they wouldn't be in the breakthrough category which made me feel proud.
I watched as Jo, Kat and Jennifer all jumped up on stage, hugging Jett –Jo who seemed to be enjoying the hug quite a lot- and Kat took the blimp. "Wow, we never thought we would be nominated for any of these music awards seeing as we are the new kids on the block, so from all of us, we want to thank you for the recognition you have given us, we also want to thank Hawk, our manager and producer for bringing us together as a band, our label, Hawk Records for giving us a boost that we needed in the media and, we would all like to thank and show our appreciation to Echo Kimberleigh, for writing all our songs for us. You are all a part of this blimp as we are!" It seems that not only has freaking everyone I have known over the past 2 years have matured but now, the person I hated the most seems to have decency and enough respect to thank me, maybe Kat has changed.
It seems that everybody has! Seriously!
"They can definitely shake a move, give it up for our next two presenters; Victoria Justice and Miranda Cosgrove." Kevin said pointing to the stage where Victoria Justice and Miranda Cosgrove walked out upon, by this time Jett had taken his seats again and Jett smiled to me, kissing me on the cheek and taking my hand loosely.
"Thanks, Kevin. Our next award is definitely a big one." Miranda nodded to Victoria as they stood next to each other behind the podium.
"I definitely agree, let's get straight to it." Victoria said. "The nominees for Best Male Artist are… Lil Wayne…Justin Bieber… Snoop Dogg… and Michael Bublé."
"And, the winner is…" Miranda trailed off. "JUSTIN BIEBER!" The two girls said as the same time into the microphone as a massive picture of Justin appeared on the screens behind them. Girls screamed loudly as Justin made his way up to the stage.
"Wow, I just thought I would like to say thank you, thank you for voting me the winner in such a hard category, I mean Lil Wayne, Snoop Dogg and Michael Bublé? That's crazy! So, thank you so much for your dedication to me, I love you all." He kept his speech short and sweet before Victoria started talking again.
"Congratulations Justin! Now, we give you Cherry Boom!" She said quickly before scurrying off the stage with Miranda and Justin.
If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
The music started and the girls walked on stage singing. I smiled proudly, proud to the fact of what the lyrics meant to me. The first song I wrote.
Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you when she stands under my colors
Oh, and life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no
Ain't even gray, but she buries her baby
The girls stood next to each other, their melodies even more harmonious than the first time I had heard them sing.
The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time
If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time
As Kat held and sung a high pitched note the crowd cheered loudly for them and they grinned brightly.
And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I've never known the loving of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
There's a boy here in town, says he'll love me forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by
The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time
So put on your best, boys, and I'll wear my pearls
What I never did is done
A penny for my thoughts, oh no, I'll sell 'em for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singing
Funny, when you're dead how people start listening
"How about we mix it up in here?" Kat shouted and the crowd cheered for them, the next thing I knew they had gone into the second song I wrote on a double performance.
La la la la la la
Everyday I fight for
All my future somethings
A thousand little awards
I have to choose between
I could spend a lifetime
Earning things I don't need
That's like chasing rainbows
And coming home empty
And if you strip me,
Strip it all away
If you strip me,
What would you find
If you strip me,
Strip it all away
I'll be alright
Even though I hated blonde Jennifer, she had an amazing voice, I had to admit it.
Take what you want
Steal my pride
Build me up
Or cut me down to size
Shut me out
But I'll just scream
I'm only one voice in a million
but you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me
I don't need a microphone
To say what I been thinking
My heart is like a loudspeaker
That's always on eleven
And if you strip me,
Strip it all away
If you strip me,
What would you find
If you strip me,
Strip it all away
I'm still the same
The girls were now energetic as they bounced around the stage and slapped the hands of the young audience and waved to them as they did some choreographed moves along with the performance.
Take what you want
Steal my pride
Build me up
Or cut me down to size
Shut me out
But I'll just scream
I'm only one voice in a million
but you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me
Cos when it all boils down
At the end of the day
Its what you do and say
That makes you who you are
Makes you think about,
Think about it
Doesn't it
Sometimes all it takes is one voice
People cheered around me and applauded Kat for holding another high pitch note perfectly.
Take what you want
Steal my pride
Build me up
Or cut me down to size
Shut me out
But I'll just scream
I'm only one voice in a million
but you ain't taking that from me
Oh oh no you ain't taking that from me
Oh oh no you ain't taking that from me
Oh oh no you ain't taking that from me
Oh oh no you ain't taking that from me
The girls were applauded by the room and they grinned and waved before making their way backstage.
"Give it up for Jennette McCurdy and Nathan Kress!" The over voice said as the said two people walked up on slime island.
"Hi guys." Jennette smiled.
"Jennette and I are honored to present the next category." Nathan said smiling.
"Indeed we are."
"You know, Jennette, you are a lot different from your character on iCarly, Sam. She's so vicious and mean." Nathan commented.
Jennette smiled. "Thanks, Nathan! You know, your character Freddie is such a dork, you're just like him." She laughed lightly and Nathan rolled his eyes.
"And the nominees for the Best Single are… Taylor Swift-Mine… Victoria Justice-Make it Shine…Big Time Rush-If I Ruled the World… and Cherry Boom- If I Die Young." Nathan said.
"And… the winner is…" Jennette grabbed a party popper like item and pulled it open, it exploded in confetti and a big banner sprung out the part popper-like object. "BIG TIME RUSH!" Jennette read off the banner and their music filled the speakers.
I don't know whether to be upset because my song didn't win or happy that I didn't have to see Jo back up on stage.
As the four guys jumped up onto Slime Island and hugged the two iCarly actors, Logan was presented with the blimp from Jennette. "Wow." Logan said as the screams continued to deafen the area, the four of them had big smiles on their faces. "You know, we've made appearances on the KCA's for two years running and we've been voted in a few categories but we never won, so we want to thank you for supporting us, especially while we were on tour, it's been a long 8 months but we're back home!" Logan said happily into the microphone.
"And we'd like to give a big thanks to our families, our friends and our producer, Gustavo Rocque but also for the label and for Global Nett Sanyoid for funding our tour. But most of all, we'd like to thank you guys!" Kendall took over the microphone briefly.
"Straight onto our next award, Keke Palmer and David Henrie is here to present it!" The over voice announced as the couple walked on stage to cheers.
It seemed now the awards show had finally got into swing and awards were being given out from left, right and centre.
"Right, we are the first to give out one of the special awards tonight." David said into the podium.
"Hey David, you're kinda special, aren't you. Wizard and all." Keke said grinning.
"No, that's my character Keke." David said to her.
"Yeah but wouldn't you call yourself a Warlock in a way?" She continued.
"No." David chuckled. "Keke and I are here to present an extremely special award. It is an award that has been combined with three ingredients, music, the media and presentation."
"Are those ingredients for your magic potion?" Keke joked and David rolled his eyes.
"On a serious note, over the years this person has shown true dedication to their work, all the time. They've faced public struggles and public controversies that put them under a great amount of pressure, but he rose up to the challenge of being criticized and even now, thrives on the work he does."
"The Outstanding Dedication award is truly prestigious and goes to an outstandingly dedicated man, Griffin Kimberleigh." I gasped in shock.
No way.
My dad won an award!
"Echo, can you help me up the stage?" Griffin asked and I nodded, instantly jumping up and lending him a hand with getting out of his chair, I linked arms with him as we walked up to the stage and gave an offering hand to him when walking up the stairs.
He smiled at David who presented him the award and I took a few steps back, just standing a few steps to the left away from Keke.
"I didn't think I would ever get the chance to win a blimp." Griffin said astounded when he had hugged Keke. "I started as a CEO for a budding company 30 years ago and I am immensely proud with what it's become. Stars see the public as an annoying thing sometimes, they want their privacy, but with privacy I would have never found my daughter once again." I smiled to Griffin when he pointed to me. "I would just like to thank you that you have given me this award, especially after my recent visit to hospital. Thank you." Griffin held the blimp and I linked arms with him, helping him back down the stage and to our seats as yet another award was going to be presented.
"Well done dad, I'm so proud." I said, just before Kevin James started to present the presenters for the next category.
After Best Show on Nick was announced to be SpongeBob, Favorite TV Sidekick was Jennette McCurdy for iCarly as Sam Puckett, a singing performance by Justin Bieber and more interactive Kevin James to which his meter went up from being good to awesome he announced the next presenters as Arianna Grande and Drake Bell.
"Hey, Drake." Arianna said.
"Hey, Arianna." Drake repeated.
"Guess what?"
"What?"
"Our hair colour matches!"
"Arianna, your hair is bright red… mine is auburn."
"Well they're the same, right?"
"No..not really."
"Oh…" Arianna looked disappointed.
"Well, this is awkward." Drake said after a moments of silence. "Shall I announce the award?"
"Please do." She nodded.
"And the nominees for Favorite Female Breakthrough are…" Drake said and Arianna took over as clips came on the screen.
"Jo Taylor…Echo Kimberleigh…Jennette McCurdy…and Victoria Justice."
"And the winner is…" Drake said and I held my breath.
"Who's the winner?" Arianna asked excitedly.
"Uh, I don't know, I thought we'd have a box or something near the podium…" Drake trailed off, running a hand through his hair that covered his forehead and there, on his forehead was my name!
Arianna giggled and pointed to his head. "Echo Kimberleigh!" I smiled gleefully as I got up from my chair as fans cheered and applauded. I giggled and slapped kid's slimy hands as I walked up the stage steps once again.
"Congratulations!" Arianna said in my ear as she handed me the blimp.
"Thanks!" I said back to her.
"Congrats." Drake hugged and then kissed me on the cheek and I tried not to melt into a pool of slime. "If you were single, you would be in a lot more places than my forehead." I blushed crimson at what Drake said before trying to compose myself as the fans cheers finally began to die down.
"Wow, I didn't think I'd be winning any other award tonight, I was happy with being a part of one. You, the fans you're all so important to all of us stars without you we would be nothing, just usual people. You make us popular, you make us stars yet in reality, you are all the stars of life. I was leading a normal life a few years ago and I despised the media for all that it was worth, but now, seeing all of this I realize that we are dependent on you. I could never sing, dance or act, so I'm so grateful for this award and I want every single one of you to realize that your dreams can happen." I said smiling to the crowd before taking my leave and walking back down to my seat as yet another award went to be presented.
More Victorious cast walked out, this time it was Leon Thomas and Elizabeth Gilles.
"To put it short and sweet, just like my character on Victorious, we are here to present the Favorite Male award." Elizabeth said at Slime Island.
Leon scoffed. "Elizabeth, there is nothing 'sweet' about your character on Victorious."
"Sure there is! Agree with me or I'll hurt you." She said, imitating her character on the TV show.
"Okay, okay! You're sweet!" Leon surrendered.
"The nominees for the Favorite Male are…" Elizabeth said, suddenly sounding all sweet and perky once again. "David Henrie…Jett Stettson…Joe Jonas… and Nick Jonas."
"And, the winner is…"
"Leon, can I borrow your shoes for a second?" Elizabeth suddenly asked.
"Elizabeth, we're kinda presenting an award right now." Leon told her.
"Just give me your shoe!" She exclaimed and Leon instantly took of his right converse and then his left, passing them to her.
She held the shoe's bottom up to the crowd. It had Jett's name on it. "Jett Stettson!" Elizabeth said loudly into the microphone and there the audience went, cheering and screaming for Jett as he got up on Slime Island.
Leon handed him the blimp while Elizabeth threw Leon's shoes into the pool of slime, Elizabeth and Jett chuckled at her actions while Leon faked hysteria.
"Wow, thank you so much for recognizing the hard work I've been putting in this year, even though I know you voted for me because I'm devilishly handsome it's nice to know that you think I'm the best male, too. Thank you." I rolled my eyes at Jett's 'modest' speech.
"Please welcome, Miley Cyrus to present the next award!" The over voice said as Miley walked out to the center of the main stage, grinning and waving at the adoring fans that were besotted with her.
"Wow, tonight has been pretty eventful!" Miley said into the microphone. "Now, this certain award I have a special connection with as I won it twice in a row, so I'm so honored to present it this year. Let's just get down to business, the nominees for Best Music Video are… Selena Gomez for A Year Without Rain… Big Time Rush for If I Ruled the World…Taylor Swift for Mine… and Cherry Boom for If I Die Young. And the winner is!" She turned and pointed to the screens that were behind her, I watched with somewhat disappointment as the screen came alive with the music video for If I Ruled the World came up on screen. "BIG. TIME. RUSHHH!" Miley exclaimed into the microphone and the actual music for If I Ruled the World began playing through the arena and once again, like it wasn't predictable enough, the crowd –mostly pre-pubescent girls- wailed loudly for Big Time Rush as they once again, made it onto the stage.
Thank God I didn't need to confront them tonight, I don't think I could take it.
"Wow, we are absolutely honored to accept this blimp." Logan began as Carlos, as Carlos does ran around the stage with the blimp above his head, screaming 'YEAAHH!' and running up to the fans and smacking their hands.
So it looks like some things never change.
"And clearly, this means a lot to Carlos." Kendall joked lightly.
"YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING!" Carlos jumped to the microphone and shouted in it, the overwhelming response of cheering made his gleam of a smile just grow.
"On a serious note…" Logan rolled his eyes as his band mate's behavior but smiled nonetheless. "We are so humbled for what you guys do for us and none of you realize just how much you all mean to us. Because of you guys we get to do something we love every day and we're truly lucky for that. Thank you America!" Logan continued, he was always the speech type person.
"Please welcome, The Jonas Brothers to present the next award!" Kevin announced from somewhere near the stage and more girls cried mercilessly as the Jonas brothers appeared on Slime Island.
"Now, as brothers we have had a lot of disagreements through our music." Joe said when the cries died down.
"And we always got it out through one way or another." Nick continued.
"Most of the time that was shouting at each other." Joe said. "But we could have never been a band without each other."
"Hey, Joe, I know you stole my nachos the other day." Kevin suddenly said, frowning at Joe.
"We've already spoken about this, Kevin, we've got an award to present."
"But you know how much I love nachos!" He protested to Joe's previous statement.
"Well I like them too!"
"But they were mine."
"Well, they are in my stomach now, so what are you going to do about it?" Joe challenged.
"Do you really want to know?" Kevin asked.
"Yeah? Bring it brother!" Just as Joe spoke, Kevin pushed him and as Joe was convinentally right next to the pool of slime he fell in it.
"Kevin!" Nick exclaimed as Joe stood in the pool completely covered in slime and the kids cheered.
"What? He ate my nachos…" Kevin frowned at Joe as he pulled himself out of the pool of slime, completely stained with the colour green.
"And the nominees for Best Female Artist are…" Joe said in despair, flicking some of his slime at Kevin.
I noticed 'Best Female Artist' and Jett nudged me lightly and I nodded, sneaking out of my chair and going back stage by walking to the far left corner of the arena.
As soon as I walked backstage someone walked up to me.
"Ah, Echo, I'm Lilly, you're going to be presenting the Best Group award, now you're going out on your own." She spoke so quickly and led me to the main area of backstage that my head began to spin. "When you announce the award, just open this envelope." She thrusted the envelope in my hands and I looked at it doubtfully considering the extravagant ways that most of the acts were revealed. "Don't worry, you're not going to get slimed!" The woman said as cheers echoed out from on stage for Taylor Swift who had won Best Female Artist.
"Why would I be worried for?" I asked unconvincingly.
"I don't know, you tell me." The woman grinned at me. "And, you're on in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1…" She trailed of as I heard the voice over guy call out my name and Lilly gave me a push forward and I walked onstage.
Adrenaline hit as the crowd screamed and cheered and I held onto the envelope in one hand and placed it on the podium when I reached it.
"Hey, guys!" I said brightly and full of confidence when inside I was shaking like a leaf and completely shitting myself. I started reading off the prompt. "I am so excited to present this award, as everyone knows music is a big part of the media industry and without it, things would be lacking. But even though I found the music industry wasn't for me, these groups definitely belong in this industry. So, the nominees for Best Group are!" I said as the two screen in the back ground behind me started showing music videos of each band. "The Jonas Brothers… Lady Antebellum… Big Time Rush… and The Black Eyed Peas." I said.
Of course Big Time Rush was in this category, how did I not realize this earlier?
"And, the winner is…" I trailed off, picking up the envelope and praying to any God out there to have mercy on me.
Now she's got a boyfriend and I've got a rock band
'Cause nothing really ever goes the way it's planned
Take me back to you somehow
And everything that I know now
It's so hard, I tore us apart
Take me back to feeling
Like the world would just keep dealing
Me the right cards, now you're just so far
She's Got a Boyfriend Now- Boys Like Girls
I forgot to say, Echo's dress for the Kids Choice Awards! There's a link to it in my profile
My, my, that was a quick update, right? I know it's a pretty boring chapter, but maybeeeee, just maybe Echo and Kendall will finally be reunited?
More reviews = more likely that it will happen!

Happy new year to all, this is my 2012 present to you :)
