Chapter 13: The Four Elements and First Kisses
Me: It's done just in time.
Kendall: And that's a good thing?
Me: Yes. I DON'T WANNA BE A LIAR TO MY READERS!
Kendall: Okay?
Me: *groans* JAMES! TELL KENDALL ALREADY!
James: GET OUT MY HEAD!
Kendall: Tell me what?
Me: I'll let him do that.
Carlos: What the heck?
Me: Helmet!
Logan: ?
Song I'm listening to: High School-The Rap by Shane Dawson
Reaction: This is one of the funniest songs I've ever heard! :D

"DOGS!" The teens jumped in surprise. The girls' dropped their headphones while the boys turned around to see a red-faced Gustavo.
"Gustavo. You're back…real early." Kendall stood up from the recording equipment.
"So…what happened? What's with the early arrival?" Carlos asked.
"Well, Griffin thought you dogs needed to work harder. So, he sent us back to start working on rehearsals. But instead, I see you MESSING WITH MY EQUIPMENT AND RECORDING THESE…THESE…CATS!"
"It was nothing bad!" Melody spoke up. "They were just helping us."
"Plus, you heard the girls from the hallway. They're really good singers." Kelly added, giving the teens a small smile.
"WELL…that is true. And, I can destroy Hawk's career at the same time. Okay girls. Let me hear another song. And dogs, AWAY FROM MY EQUIPMENT."
"Here's one I wrote a few months back. Hawk wouldn't let us sing it." Jazzmine gave Gustavo two pieces of notebook paper.
"The Four Elements?" Gustavo raised an eyebrow. "It's our original band name. Hawk wouldn't let us use it at all." Sam growled.
Gustavo scanned the two papers and smiled. He actually smiled. "This is a GREAT SONG! Alright, cats. Start singing and DON'T MESS UP!"
The girls picked up their headphones and placed them over their ears, ready to sing.

"Cats, that was AMAZING!..." The girls started to cheer.
"...ly average." They immediately stopped cheering.
Melody sighed. "Really? Does he always do this?" The boys nodded in response.
"Well, I don't see a problem with you girls not being here." Gustavo commented. "Dogs, look like you have some healthy competition." *insert evil laugh*
Kelly rolled her eyes. "Well, girls. Welcome to Rocque Records!"
Excited, Hailey, Samantha and Melody ran out of the recording booth, hugging each of the boys and Kelly.
"Hey…is Jazzmine okay?" The teens looked up to see Jazzmine just standing in the booth.
Jazzmine's POV
"Lemme outta here!" A seven year old Jazzy cried, hitting the closet door over and over.
A man opened the door and pulled her out, then pushed her onto the ground. "SHUT UP!"
"W-what d-did I do?" The brunette hiccuped. She was struck with something no human should have. An old slave whip.
Jazzmine screamed as she was hit over and over. He pushed her back into the closet and locked the door.
I miss L-Logie. And Kendall, James and Carlos. I wish I was home.
She heard the door unlocked and was pulled to the fireplace. Her legs and hands were tied up with a strong rope behind her. Her t-shirt was pulled off her and a bandana was tied over her mouth. Her eyes grew wide as she saw a burning rod being pushed closer to her skin.
I screamed and fell down into a corner, terrified. My world was spinning around me. I held that one spot under my t-shirt.
"JAZZMINE! WHAT HAPPENED!" Someone yelled. They sounded like Logan.
"She's having a PANIC ATTACK!"
I heard the door open and I ran out the booth. Out the studio and away from Rocque Records. I kept running until I ran out of breath at the Palm Woods Park. I sat under a small oak tree and just cried into my shirt.
Normal POV; Rocque Records
"What…just…happened?" Logan asked, looking at the door.
Samantha sighed. "Jazzmine had a panic attack. This is a first, considering she forgot everything before the car accident."
"I should go talk to her." Logan headed for the door until Sam grabbed his wrist.
"Look, let me talk to her. She's my best friend and I know her pretty well."
Logan sighed. "No way. I'm her brother, so I should talk to-
No one saw the Latino sneak away from the argument and out of Rocque Records.
James used Kelly's air-horn.
"Hey! Not to be rude or anything, but where's Carlos?" Everyone looked around, but didn't see the Latino.
"Great!" Samantha sighed. "Now we have to find Jazzmine and Carlos."
Normal POV, Palm Woods Park
That's not like Jazzmine at all. I really hope she's here
"JAZZMINE!" The Latino yelled, searching for a sign of the brunette. Looking around, Carlos saw that he was at the Palm Woods Park.
Sighing, Carlos sat under an oak tree and looked at the cloudy sky of LA.
Yet, the brightly lit moon still showed.
"I-I can't d-do this a-anymore." Someone whispered.
Curious, Carlos looked behind the tree to see Jazzy, looking at her feet.
Her face had tear tracks, proving that she had cried.
"M-Maybe I s-should just g-go back home." Jazzmine screamed when she felt someone put their hand on her shoulder.
"Jazz, it's me!"She looked up to see Carlos. "I should have known better than to do that, sorry."
"It's fine, Carlos. Did you…follow me?"
Carlos sighed. He sat next to Jazzmine. "Yea. I was a bit worried. You just…panicked."
Jazzmine's POV
Should I tell him? The thoughts rambled through my head. I can trust him…but what if he gets killed because of it.
"Jazzmine? Hellooo?" I snapped out of my thoughts to see Carlos waving his hand in front of my face.
"Sorry, I zone out a bit too easily." I blushed, looking back at my feet.
Carlos lifted my head and our eyes met just for a second. "It's no problem at all."
I raised an eyebrow when Carlos took off his helmet and put it on my head.
"You might need it a bit more than I do." Carlos explained, strapping the helmet on.
A half-smile snuck onto my face.
"So, what happened?" I sighed and lifted a small part of my t-shirt.
A medium-sized burn mark was there. It had the initials P.H in dark black letterings, mocking me.
I felt tears well up in my eyes. "I had a flashback. On my seventh birthday, I was ordered to stay quiet. I stayed pretty quiet, until exactly 7pm. I accidentally yelled "I'm officially seven now" into the sky. Angry, he stuffed me into a closet. After half an hour, he whipped me with an old slave whip, then put me back in the closet. After an hour, he pulled me out again, tied me up and burned…me."
Tears fell down my cheeks like waterfalls. "I-It still hurts. I-I'm sorry t-that I'm crying s-so much."
Carlos took my right hand in his left. "It's okay." He wiped one of my tears, causing me to giggle just slightly.
"Hey, I know what will make you feel better." Carlos smiled.
"I don't know if corn-dogs will help right now. Plus, I'm not really hungry." Carlos rolled his eyes.
"It has nothing to do with corn-dogs. Just close your eyes and count to three."
I raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised at the Latino.
I can trust him. At least...I think I can.
"Umm…sure." I closed my eyes. "One…two…three."
I felt something soft on my lips. Kissing me. I opened my eyes to see Carlos…kissing me.
He pulled away, looking at me. "I should probably go."
He stood up. Without thinking, I stood up, grabbed his wrist and kissed him.
He wrapped his arms around my waist. I wrapped my arms around his neck.
Once I pulled away, I smiled. "So…what now?"
Carlos smiled. "Looks like we're…boyfriend and girlfriend?"
He intertwined our hands and looked into my eyes. I looked away, blushing. "Yea."
We headed back to Apartment 2K, where we heard clapping once I closed the door.
Someone was clapping. "Well…well…well. This is just an adorable little movie scene isn't it?"
That voice sent shivers down my spine. I knew that voice anywhere.
Me: Yayz! This chapter was stuck in my head for MONTHS! Thank gosh it's out.
Logan: STOP WITH THE CLIFFHANGERS!
Me: Hmmm...nope.
James: Dude...WHERE'S CARLOS? HE TOOK MY CUDA MAN SPRAY!
Kendall: I think...he's outside. He said something about...
Me: A man spray bomb. *grins*
James: *gone in a heartbeat*
Logan: ?
Kendall: *thinking* James' is kinda cute when he's mad. Did I just think that?
Me: YEA, YA DID KENDALL!
Kendall: What the fuck?!
Me: Mind-reading helmet...duh.
I hope you enjoyed the story. Please read, review and look for Chapter 14: Peter Henderson.
(I like Logan's real last name, so it's nothing against him. :D)
Before I forget, I am co-author of a Big Time Rush story. The story is called "BTR Questions and Answers."
The main author is 4everablackrose. It's a good story if you want to send the guys questions or anything.
I suggest you read it. :D
And if you liked (or still like) the Jonas Brothers, check out Joe Jonas' new song "See No More." It's deep and very different. It's one of my top ten favorite songs. Probably #1. :D
