It's the only life you've got

So you've gotta live it Big Time!

As soon as the band finished, they looked through the window to their producer. Gustavo stood up and walked into the recording studio, Kelly right behind him.

"Boys! That was excellent." Kendall and James high fived and he continued. "That's why, I've scheduled a concert in Madison Square Garden on Saturday."

"What?" The four boys exclaimed together.

Kelly smiled. "Yes. Your plane leaves tomorrow, so I suggest packing. Now." She didn't have to say anymore. Kendall, Carlos, Logan and James all ran for the door, laughing and talking loudly. But before he left, James turned around.

"Wait!" He said quickly.

"What now?" Gustavo responded, sounding slightly irritated.

"Are we allowed to bring, I don't know…another person?"

Gustavo just looked at him but Kelly smiled knowingly. She took a step towards James and said, "And is this person Katie by any chance?"

James shifted his eyes before looking at her again. "Yes." He said with a hopeful expression on his face.

Kelly and Gustavo exchanged glances before the producer sighed. "Fine, you can bring your girlfriend. But you still have to be focused!"

James smiled brightly. "Thank you!" Then he ran out of the studio, back to the Palm Woods.

Back at the apartment Katie sat on the couch, her computer in her lap. She pretended to be working on her English assignment, but her mind was far away. Finally after fifteen minutes of staring at a blank screen, she sighed and looked away. One, she was getting a headache. And two, she couldn't stop thinking about the events that had happened that day.

She had to work with Kyle, but James just wouldn't leave them alone. He wouldn't trust her. And to top it all off, he said he liked her. Sure she felt fine when holding his hand. But when he let go to work with Gustavo and the boys, the feeling of doubt came back.

Didn't she mean more to him than like? She knew for a fact that she was in love with him, but he obviously didn't see it. Or he didn't feel the same way. She didn't know.

Suddenly she shook her head. She was being stupid. She had never been one of those girls who obsessed over a guy before, and she wasn't going to start. Sighing, she put her laptop on the coffee table and stood up. She walked over to the kitchen and grabbed a water bottle from the fridge, taking a big gulp and letting the cold liquid run down her throat. She never knew why, but water always made her feel slightly better. She was just weird in that way.

All of a sudden, the front door opened. James, Kendall, Carlos, and Logan walked in, talking loudly and laughing about God knows what. But Katie could see that they were really happy about something.

"Hey guys." Katie chuckled, setting the water bottle down on the counter. The three boys, not including her boyfriend, just nodded at her and sat down on the couch.

James came over and pecked her lips, before saying, "We have something to tell you." He tried to hold back a smile when saying this.

"What?" All he did was take her hand and lead her over to the couch, where the rest of the band was. Katie then noticed that her mom came into the room as well.

"Okay, we have big news." Carlos started. Katie and her mom exchanged glances, before looking at the band again. By this time, the boys were all standing in a line in front of Katie and Mrs. Knight, who were sitting on the couch.

"And that is…" Katie started.

"Big Time Rush is going to perform in Madison Square Garden this Saturday!" They all exclaimed together.

"No way!" Katie smiled excitedly as she stood up. She wrapped her arms around James before saying, "I'm so happy for you guys!" They pulled away and smiled at each other.

"When do you leave?" Mrs. Knight asked.

"Tomorrow morning." Kendall responded. Then he looked at the other guys. "So we should probably pack like Kelly said."

They all left the room, leaving James and Katie alone. Her arms were still around his neck and his around her waist.

"Wow, it's so sudden." Katie chuckled. Although James could see the disappointment in her eyes.

"There's more." He smiled. She cocked her head to the side and he continued, moving his face closer so his forehead rested against hers. "I asked Gustavo if we can bring someone with us. Like a groupie or something." She chuckled. "And he said yes."

Finally realization hit her. "Wait, do you mean-"

"I want you to come with us." James finished for her, smiling again. She laughed and hugged him, practically jumping up and down. He laughed as well and she pulled away, kissing him.

Suddenly she stopped and pulled away. "What's wrong?" James asked, looking at her curiously.

"Do you really want me to come with you and the band?" At this James sighed. "I mean, I'm your girlfriend. And I know how important it is for you guys to hang out, with just guys."

"You're right, it is important. But it would much more important to me if you came. I don't want to be away from you, even if it is just for a week or so." Katie still looked unsure, so he moved closer. "Please?"

After a moment, Katie laughed. "Well of course I want to go, you idiot!" He smiled and opened his mouth to say something, but it was cut off by Katie's lips on his.

Yay, they're going to New York!

But I need to warn all you readers. I feel the story is kind of slow going. And what's a good read without some DRAMA in it? So be prepared for the "D" word in chapters to come. I'm just saying…

Haha, anyway read&review! :)
