This is an emotional chapter so here are some songs that are good for it. (p.s. I am not doing this for every chapter now, probably just this one.)

Lavonne sat in the Palm Woods lobby reading a book when she heard singing coming from the pool. She walked out and saw Dylan singing to a girl.

"Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere

Just a city boy
Born and raised in south Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere."

He looked at her for a moment and then looked back at the girl who was smiling.

A tear was ready to drip down her cheek but she turned and ran to the stairs. Once she was up three flights she stopped and sat started silently crying. Dylan had become such a jerk. He used to sing that song to her to cheer her up, it was their friendship song. He vowed that he would never sing that song to anyone else as long as his heart beat.

She tried to wipe her tears as she remembered when he had sent her that song as they talked on the phone. They had started to sing it together.

"You like Journey too?" he asked.

"Like them, I love them!"

"So then it's our friendship song. Don't Stop Believing it our song, and no one else's. And I vow I will never sing it to anyone else as long as my heart beats. And you better promise too."

"I promise, cross my heart and hope to die." She crossed her heart even though she was talking on the phone and he couldn't see it.

"Lavonne?" she heard a voice ask from behind her. She turned her head just enough to see Carlos with a sled and his helmet.

"Carlos, what are you doing here?"

"I was going to sled down the stairs, but then I heard you." he set the sled down and walked down a few steps and sat next to her. "Why are you crying?"

"It's nothing."

"Well I know it's something because you don't cry that easy." Lavonne sniffed. Her tears threatened again and she leaned her head on Carlos's shoulder and started crying again.

Carlos put an arm around her shoulder and tried to comfort her.

"Lavonne," Dylan tried to catch up with her as she walked down the hall.

"Dylan, go away."

"Lavonne, what's wrong." He caught up with her and grabbed her arm.

"Hmm, I wonder. Maybe it was the guy who sang a song he promised to never sing to anyone else?" she pulled her arm away and started walking to 2J.

"Lavonne, she was just some girl. It doesn't mean,"

"That's the thing, it does. Dylan you've been such a jerk, what happened to you?" she asked.

He didn't say anything.

"Don't talk to me anymore." She said. She walked into 2J and tried not to cry.

"Hey, Love."

"Hi, Mrs. Knight." Lavonne sat in the living room.

"What's wrong?" Mrs. Knight could sense the sadness.

"Nothing, why?" Lavonne tried to smile.

Lavonne was by the pool, knowing that she was breaking Palm Woods rules by being out after nine. She let her fingers graze the glassy surface of the water.

Her other arm that wasn't dangling by the pool was wrapped around her knees and her head was leaning against them. She felt like a little ball. Especially since she had been completely rejected by her best guy friend who had become a total jerk. But then she rejected him, it was confusing her.

She felt her slow heart beat shake her insides as she watched the water ripple from her touch.

Lavonne: g2g, I'll call you l8r?
Dylan: okay
LOVE YOU!
Lavonne: LOVE YOU TOO!

That was when they became the best of friends. When they started loving each other, but he always meant it in a brother sister way, when they started saying I love you like that she meant it in a deeper way.

She heard wheels and looked back at the hotel. She ran into the lobby to catch Dylan leaving.

"Dylan,"

He turned and saw her.

"I was hoping you would catch me before I had to leave. Hawk is moving me to a new hotel." He set his suit case by the door and walked to Lavonne. "And I want you to come with me."

"What?"

"You've always wanted a solo career; you've never been a band girl. Hawk can give you a solo career."

"Dylan, we've been friends for so long and you should know that I'm also not the kind of girl that will leave her friends. I'm part of Big Time Rush and nothing can change that."

"I love you, more than what I've made it out to be." He said.

"Dylan, when we were first friend and we would say that we loved each other, I meant it more than just a friend. But now it's too late for use to be more, I stopped loving you like that and only as a friend months before I came here." She said her voice serious.

"Okay, then this is goodbye." Before he turned to the door he leaned forward and kissed Lavonne's lips softly. He turned and grabbed his bag. He walked out of the door and Lavonne stood there, watching him leave.

Then she heard someone behind her and turned.

"Carlos,"
