Hey guys! I'll be putting up the template for the OCs soon, so just hold on a day or two, okay? Haha. :) Thanks for all the reviews and alerts and favorites! :D It means a lot! :) So, this is a really flip-floppy chapter on POVs so... ya.


Kendall's POV

James was grinning at the lap top, looking like his face was going to crack if he tried to smile much bigger. I raised an eyebrow and plopped down beside him on the couch. "What's up, Dude?"

He shook his head as if clearing it and looked up at me, "Kelsey."

I nodded and peered at the screen curiously. "How is she?"

"She's coming here." He said, ignoring my question.

I jolted out of my seat, "Are you kidding?" A huge smile crossed my own face and suddenly I understood why he was so happy.

He stared at me, "Would I kid about Kelsey?"

I shrugged, "Point taken."


Kelsey's POV

I slipped out of the taxi and peered up at the Palm Woods Hotel. A smile inched on my face, knowing I was going to surprise them. My heels tapped the pavement as I walked across the lot to the lobby, raising an eyebrow at anyone who glanced my way.

I walked up to the main desk and rang the bell cheerily, setting my bags down next to me. A short, aggravated looking, portly man sighed and walked to the desk. "How may I help you, Miss?"

I smiled and tilted my head, "Could you tell me which apartment the boys of Big Time Rush stay in?"

His beady eyes narrowed in on me, "Are you a friend of theirs?"

I smirked, "Yeah, but I won't break anything."

He looked at me appraisingly, "Why don't I believe you?"

"I don't know." I replied, "Now, which apartment?"

He rolled his eyes, "2J."

"Thank you, Mr. Bitters." I said with a reserved smile, calling over my shoulder, "Oh, and have a Palm Woods Day."

I could feel his scowl in the deepest pits of my soul, his hate. I shrugged it off and made my way to 2J.


Katie's POV

The door thudded with the pounding of someone's fist, and I glanced around the living room. The boys made no effort to get it and I sighed. The door swung open to reveal a form that I knew all too well.

Kelsey smiled at me and pressed a finger to her lips, silencing anything I wasn't going to say. She raised her eyebrows in question, and I shook my head. "Oh, hey Mom." I said loud enough for the guys to hear.

She smirked and tried not to giggle, pulling her bags in as quietly as possible. Out of freaking no where, she dropped the bags to the floor with a clatter, dragging the idiots' attention from Halo 3.

Their jaws dropped and their eyes widened, Xbox controllers falling from their gaping hands. James was the first to react, standing and opening his arms.

She shook her head and smiled at him silently, eyes curious and teasing. "Oh, come on, Boys," she drawled. "Didn't you miss me?"

At the sound of her voice, the other three reacted. Logan's face eased into a gentle smile and he settled back into the couch, eyes trained on nothing but her.

Kendall scooted to the edge of the couch, hands settled nervously on his knees, eyes wide in surprise.

Carlos's reaction was the easiest to predict, though. He stood and crossed the room in ridiculously quick steps, pulling her into his arms.


Carlos's POV

It felt unbelievable to have her in my arms again. Her laughter bubbled up from deep in her stomach, shaking her slightly as she rested her head on my chest, her arms around my upper back.

"Hey, Carlos." My name sounded heavenly on her tongue, her sweet soprano voice the narrator of my dreams.

I felt her pull out of my embrace and stare up into my eyes, the emerald in her own liquid with excitement. "Hey, Kelsey." Her hands rested against my chest, burning me through my shirt. Mine gripped her forearms as if they were my tether to the ground.

I kissed her forehead and dropped my hands from her arms, knowing that she wanted to greet everyone else.

To my horror, but not surprise, she went to James next. He smiled at her so warmly that for an instant-and only that-I thought he might love her too, but that was impossible.


James's POV

Kelsey rested her head against my neck, breath tickling my tan skin. Her hands were twisted into a knot behind my neck, her feet about two inches off of the ground. I held her up by her waist. I felt her smile at our familiar embrace and couldn't help the huge smirk on my face.

She's so beautiful, I thought. "Hey, Kels." I whispered, lips barely a centimeter from her ear.

"Hey, Seph." She whispered back teasingly. (When we were little, she was mad that I didn't have a nickname so she asked for my full name. James Alexander Joseph Diamond. Therefore, Seph.)

I chuckled and set her down regretfully. She shook her head, her mane of sleek black hair slapping my face, and moved on to Kendall. She stopped mid-way, backtracked and kissed my cheek, then made her way to Kendall.


Kendall's POV

Does it make me a jealous jerk to say that it killed me when Kelsey kissed James's cheek? Probably… oh, well.

Kelsey laughed and pulled me to a standing position so she could wrap her arms around me and lean her head against her chest. A small sigh escaped her lips, heating my chest with her sweet breath.

She was gentle and sweet as she pulled partially from my grasp, a smile glittering on her face. "Ken-Ken." She giggled.

"Kay-kay." I laughed back, squeezing her shoulder and kissing her cheek as she made her way to Logan. She smiled at me and, for just a second, I could've sworn I saw a sweet sadness in her eyes. I shook it off but watched her carefully as she greeted Logan.


Logan's POV

I stared right into her eyes as I kissed her temple, felt her lean against me and shift tiredly. She rested her head on my shoulder and my arm came around hers. Her silken hair fell against the neon-orange couch in a haphazard mess.

She closed her eyes and smiled, pulling her knees up beside her. "Hey, Logan-ator."

"What's up Tara-nator?" I replied with a small chuckle.

She sighed deeply and shifted her head to my chest, "No one's called me that in a while. I missed my nicknames."

"Who's this Nick guy and why does he have more than one name?" Kendall joked, and we all groaned.

"That," she chuckled, opening her bright eyes, "goes in the bad joke box." She held her arms out in a box shape and Kendall 'dropped the joke in the box.' We all snickered a bit.

"Finally, someone to reign in the bad jokes!" Katie sighed, an easy smile on her face. Again, we all laughed and James nudged her playfully.

Things were looking good. Really good.


So what did you guys think? Is it good? Bad? Anything you think didn't happen right? I'm always open to suggestions or new ideas or whatever. Like I said before, I should have the OC template up soon, so just hold on. Thanks again to my wonderful beta, Abby Masrai! She's awesome! I'll try to update this ASAP!
