Hello people of the internet! So... this isn't a one shot anymore (obviously = =). YAY FOR A NEW STORY! I'm really sorry if I don't update for like, months at a time (but hopefully that won't happen), but I'm soooooo BUSY right now! And trust me, I'm not exaggerating.
This isn't relevant until somewhere in the next few chapters, but I don't own the name 'Pearson Darby Spector', I just needed a name and I thought it sounded cool. I also happened to be watching Suits because that show is FREAKIN AWESOME.
DISCLAIMER: I always forget to do this in my stories... I only own the plot of this story, & I do no own Big Time Rush. If I did, I would also own ALL the members of Our 2nd Life (Connor Frantaaaaaaaaa)
Anywhoozle, enjoy the chapter! :)

Luna flopped down on the couch in her apartment. KJ and Logan stood in front of her, arms crossed and curiousity written on their faces. Minutes passed and no one said a word. Luna could feel KJ and Logan's eyes on her, and it was pissing her off. "Why are you two staring at me like that?"
"Who was that dude you were with?" Logan asked, recieving a groan form Luna.
"Why does it matter? It's not like I'll ever see him again."
KJ sat down on Luna's right. "How can you be sure you'll never see him again?"
"For starters, I met him an hour ago. And we have no way of contacting each other." Luna replied, a 'duh' tone in her voice.
Logan sat down on her left. "If something is meant to happen between you two, then you will meet again. You never know." Luna shrugged in response. Logan made his voice higher and smirked. "So, what's his name?" Luna rolled her eyes.
"You sound just like KJ."
"Hey! I don't sound like that!" KJ protested. After a few seconds of silence, KJ grinned. "So, what's his name- oh..." The grin fell from her face. Luna and Logan smirked and high-fived.
"Anyway," Luna stood up and headed to her room, KJ and Logan following. "His name is Kendall." Luna shut the door and changed into pyjamas before opening the door again, allowing the couple to enter her room. She headed to her wardrobe and picked out some dark formal jeans and a peasant blouse, neatly putting them on a hanger and placing it on the back of her bedroom door. "He's 20, and lives with his three best friends. That's all I know about him."
Logan shrugged. "You probably will see him again. It's probably going to be like, sometime this week? Maybe even tomorrow."
"What are you, a psychic?" Luna teased. Logan rolled his eyes.
"No, but like I said before, you never know."
"It doesn't matter. But right now, I need to go to sleep so I won't be late for my first day working at Hardman Industries."
"Oh yeah!" KJ playfully elbowed Luna. "First day as editor's assistant!" Luna rolled her eyes.
"It's not a big deal, I'll probably just answer calls and get them coffee all the time. I need some sleep now, so... out. Good night." Luna guided KJ and Logan out of her room. She put her phone on charge and set an alarm. Luna switched off the light and closed the curtains, climbing into her bed and doing the best she could to forget about Kendall and go to sleep.
Luna was startled awake by her phone going off. She sleepily switched off the alarm. Her brown eyes suddenly widened when she looked at the time. She threw off the bed covers and grabbed the clothes she picked out from the night before, managing to get dressed in two minutes. Luna took her phone and ran into the kitchen to get an apple before rushing to fetch her handbag and leave.
Luna and KJ lived in a good part of LA - everything was close to one another. "I'm so glad I can walk to this place," the brunette mumbled, taking a bite of her apple. She was in such a rush that she didn't even take notice of the tall blonde who was busking on the edge of the footpath.
Five minutes later Luna was walking through the doors of Hardman Industries, giving a shy smile to the lady at the reception. "Um, hi. My name is Luna Santiago, and I'm meant to be starting here today as editor's assistant?"
"What's the name of the editor?"
Luna reeled off the name of the editor, and the receptionist told her where to go. Two minutes later Luna found herself knocking on the office door of the man who would now be her boss.
"Come in." Luna slowly opened the door and stepped inside the room. "Luna Santiago, am I correct?" Luna nodded. "Ah, very niced to meet you... Get out."
Luna furrowed her eyebrows. "...I'm sorry?"
"You heard me. I asked for you to be here forty five minutes ago. Being late on the first day doesn't make a very good impression. How do I know you won't be late again?"
"Because I won't," Luna pleaded. "Please, I'll work longer to make up the time-"
"No you won't, because you're fired. Now, get out. Unless you want to be escorted out be security?"
Luna gave a heavy sigh and left the room, not bothering to shut the door behind her. Once she was out of the building, she headed home. She was going to have to find a new job now, and it took her two months just to get her previous one. And then she would eventually fall in debt with her college fees and-
The brunette's train was thought came to a stop when she saw Kendall, guitar in hands as he played a soft tune. A hat was in front of him, almost filled to the brim with coins and paper bills. Kendall's eyes caught Luna's, and he grinned. "Hey, it's Luna." Said girl stopped in front of him.
"What are you doing here?"
"Busking. What are you doing here?"
"Oh, you know... Standing, talking, breathing, the usual."
"Ha ha, very funny." Kendall deadpanned, a smirk gracing his lips.
Kendall played a few random chords and began to sing. "Luna thinks that she's so funny, looking sweeter than a jar of honey,"
Luna kept her eyes on his. "Rubbish." she said, eliciting a laugh from Kendall. "And people give you money when you do this?" she teased.
"Well as a matter of fact, they do." The blonde began to sing another melody. "Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet, and so are you,"
It was Luna's turn to laugh. She shook her head and began to walk away. Kendall quickly shoved the money into his wallet and hat into his pocket, still holding the guitar. He ran after Luna, matching her stride. Luna looked over to him. "How about... The roses are wilting, the violets are dead, the sugar bowl's empty, and so is your head."
Kendall playfully pouted. "That's not very nice,"
"Well, we only met eight hours ago, and you just called me sweet. How do you know if I'm sweet? I'm an asshole."
Kendall shrugged. "So where are you off to?" That question made Luna's spirits go down.
"To my apartment. I just got fired from my new job and I've gotta look for another one."
"I'll help," When Luna shook her head, Kendall continued. "Seriously, you meet a lot of people in the music industry. Whatever kind of job you need, I can get it for you."
"Book editor."
Kendall sucked in a breath and winced. "Okay, maybe not every job... But I'm still going to help you."
"Fine. But I'm telling you now, it took me almost three months to get my last job. It's not going to be easy, and it's gonna take a while too." Luna warned.
"Challenge accepted."
Kendall sat on the floor of the living room in Luna's apartment, surrounded by newspapers, flyers and pens. Luna switched on her laptop, watching it whirl to life. "If you see anything related to book editing or being a book editor's assistant, circle it. If you see anything else that might be interesting to try, circle it anyway and I'll look over it later, 'kay?" Kendall did a mock salute, and the two got to work. Midday rolled around, and Kendall and Luna were still looking over the newspapers, bright red circles covering the majority of the pages. Luna stood up and stretched before getting her handbag. "I'm gonna get us some food. Is Subway okay for now?" Kendall smiled in response, and told Luna what he wanted. She nodded and left the apartment.
Kendall set Luna's laptop in front of him, intending on finding more job offers. He was about to type in the search bar when a blinking tab at the bottom of the screen caught his attention. The blonde clicked on the tab and a folder of documents showed up. The title of the first document read, Careful What You Wish For by Luna Santiago. Kendall furrowed his eyebrows. Luna wrote stories, huh? Kendall assumed that Luna would be away for a while, so he started to read the document. The more he read, the more interested he was in the story. He was soon lost in the world of Luna's story.
The sound of keys rattling jolted Kendall back to reality and Luna walked in the door, the smell of chicken wafting through the air. "I'll just put this in the kitchen," the brunette told him before heading into the next room.
As soon as Luna was out of sight, Kendall emailed the whole folder to himself. He began to get nervous when the email slowly loaded.
Just a few more seconds... almost there...
Kendall let out a sigh of relief when a little square popped up on the screen, letting him know the email was successful. Luna walked into the living room. "Are you coming?"
"Yeah, I was just saving the file we made with all the jobs you were interested in," Luna gaved Kendall a weird look before going back into the kitchen, Kendall standing up and following.
He could read the rest of Luna's stories when he got home.
