A/N: Sorry for the super duper late post. : Had been lazy lately, and I can't think of how I should continue this. I'm pretty sure the idea is locked inside my brain somewhere. So once again, sorry to keep you waiting. And for the Chinese (like half of me. :D) Happy Chinese New Year! I hope you can review and maybe give a little suggestion along the way. I know it would help a great deal.
DISCLAIMER: I'm sorry, did I say I own Big Time Rush. Did I? Did I?
Chapter 2
Elizabeth looked out of the window as the white Porsche Cayenne turned left on the next traffic light. She didn't notice that Christmas was actually coming until she saw the Christmas lights being put up around the neighborhood.
"Funny isn't it, Liz? Two years ago, on this very day, you've started all of this. Now, you're one of the best vets around the country and in the world!" the secretary hummed the tune to 'Jingle Bells', "and can you believe it? Christmas is almost here in two weeks! Have you bought gifts for everyone yet?"
"I don't know what to buy them Eva. Besides, I don't really like getting more media attention and fame. After all, I'm just a normal person," Elizabeth shrugged the thought off.
"At least get into the Christmas spirit will you? Christmas is always fun, full of presents, partying and well… presents really," Evangeline stole a glance at her best friend and boss, before focusing back on the road, "You do know what to get me do you?"
Smiling, as if they know each other inside and out, Elizabeth gave out a slight nod, "Yes Eva, I did get them for you."
"What is it?"
"Nice try, but I'm not telling you until Christmas," Evangeline rolled her eyes as her best friend gave her an evil smirk.
Turning around the last corner, they finally saw the building. It was huge, filled with grey concrete and black windows and the words 'ITV' hung above it, "We're finally here," the driver let out a kilo-watt smile.
Finding their own parking space and safely parking the car, Evangeline cuts off the engine and the both of them went out of the car, jackets worn and their bags slinging over their shoulders. As they walked over towards the elevator, Evangeline didn't give up, "Please tell me what it is."
"Sorry, and no, ma amie. Patience is a virtue," the elevator dings as the door opened wide, revealing the passengers inside. It's bright and early in the morning, so that was never unexpected to the two girls. They know they couldn't fit in, so they allowed the passengers to close the door and waited for it to come back.
"Oh man! It's going to be seven soon and the elevator's full," Evangeline sulked as she looked over at her Swatch watch, "We're going to be late!"
"Which floor is it held in?"
"Ten. Why?" she turns to look back at her boss, "Oh no. Don't tell me we're going to climb up the stairs."
"Come on, Eva. We're late, and it's only ten floors. How hard can it be?" Elizabeth did a little 'Jeremy Clarkson' impression, before smiling and making her way towards the emergency exit.
Before Evangeline could reply, the door shuts with a soft 'click', "Stubborn as always," Evangeline shook her head from side to side, all the while muttering towards herself. After composing herself and feeling calm, she went on after the to-be interviewee.
The crew members were busy preparing for the special episode that is taking place at that day. It was special because of the fact that it is a week before Christmas and lots of important celebrities are going to be in it. The green room and the set were bustling with people, all making sure that this is not going to slip.
Kendall was busy preparing with the members of the band for their performance later on in the show, tuning the guitar and basically getting the right notes and rhythms. They didn't want to make their fans unhappy. For this occasion, they chose to play 'Beautiful Christmas' and 'All I Want for Christmas Is You'. So far so good.
"Hey, did you know we'll be interviewing with Elizabeth Alaughy? She's like the superhero for animals but doesn't show around much. It's going to be awesome!" Carlos suddenly burst out inside the room, full of anxiety and energy.
"Yeah, we do have to admit. She is one smart girl. I wish I could be her boyfriend," Logan sighed, thinking about it for awhile, before shaking his head, "For a girl like her not to show her face around so much, I doubt she would even have time to make it for public appearances."
The four of them sighed in unison as the assistant director called for all of them to leave the green room and finally get ready for the show. Upon reaching the studio, they shook hands with Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield, the host of the television show, before settling down on the sofa.
Just before their eyes, a young woman stood came over and started shaking hands with the hosts, sharing some greetings and a small smile. She was wearing a strong black suit with a white shirt inside it; the kind that screams out 'She's business!'. That's when it hit them, Elizabeth Alaughy, she's finally here.
The woman turned to look at them, hesitating for awhile but giving them a grin. The four immediately stood up, each wanting to shake their hands, not missing an opportunity. Kendall started first, "Hi there, my name's— "
"Kendall Knight, isn't it? Hey," Kendall's eyes popped wide open at the answer. He had never expected someone who has never liked the public to know about him and his band.
Elizabeth must have noticed the changed expression in Kendall's face because she let out a small laugh and stepped back once, "Oh, I've been into bands when I was younger, you know, the kind that popular kids talked among each other about."
The sounds of 'Oh's echoed throughout the room, before Logan changed the atmosphere, "Wait. Hang on, where have I seen you before?"
The band looked up onto the ceiling for a moment, thinking about it, before looking at each other with shock written all over their faces. Carlos turned towards the young scientist, "You're the young girl from the news, aren't you?"
"I'm glad celebrities watch the news. It's the first I've ever heard."
Before Logan or any of the boys could reply, the director yelled for everyone to get ready as the time approaches. Elizabeth took her seat next to the hosts, and nowhere near the band itself. All of them neaten their clothes as the countdown begins.
"We're going live in 5…4…3…2… And 1!"
