The long black limo came to a stop in front of Hawk Records. Kelly crossed her legs and rested her head against the window. Ever since Toxic Meltdown came into the picture, Gustavo has had her working none stop. She was exhausted. She looked at her watch.
"Hurry up. Don't take to much time."
The boys nodded and went out the opposite door of Kelly. You could feel the tension around Big Time Rush as they entered the building. All of them on their guard, remembering when Hawk kidnapped them.
Logan walked up to the receptionist, "Uhm, Miss? I'm here to drop some papers and stuff for Mr. Hawk. Where would he happen to be?"
"Hold on Alison. Four hotties just walked in," the strawberry blonde woman put the phone down and batted her eyelashes flirtatiously at Logan. "He's in the studio with the girls."
"Thank you," Logan turned around and rolled his eyes. He walked back up to the others. Kendall, Carlos, and Logan stared at James in shock.
"What?"
Kendall blinked twice, "Aren't you gonna go ask that chick for her number?"
"No," James glared.
The other three gasped. Carlos strapped his helmet to his head, "Who are you and what have you done to James Diamond?"
"What is wrong with me not wanting her number?"
Logan stuck his index finger out, as if to prove a point, "It is the James Diamond code to ask every girl that flirts for there number. Hot or not. James Diamond likes 'em all."
James crossed his arms and rolled his eyes, "Can we please just go?"
The other three nodded and Logan looked at the map by the elevator. Recording studio fifth floor, right above the dance studio. They enter the elevator and push the number five button. It wasn't long 'til they were walking down a hall to where they could hear Hawk talking.
"Let's start off with I Can Do Better, uh. I Don't Miss You At All next. Then let's try JK, and we'll end it with Catch Me."
They could hear a beat as Amber went, "Uh," and Elizabeth said, "Yeah, you can do it." There where a few giggles. Soon Michelle's voice rang through the room and hall.
Michelle: I didn't give a damn what you say to me
Elizabeth: I don't really care what you think of me
Amber: Cause either way you're gonna think what you believe
Maddie: There's nothing you could say that would hurt me
Maddie: I'm better off without you anyway
I thought it would be hard but I'm OK
I don't need you if you're gonna be that way
Because with me, it's all or nothing
All: I'm sick of this shit, don't deny
You're a waste of time
I'm sick of this shit, don't ask why
I hate you now
So go away from me
You're gone, so long
I can do better, I can do better
Hey, hey you
I found myself again
That's why you're gone
I can do better, I can do better
Kendall and James stared at each other. Hate? What's that suppose to mean? All four boys lean against the wall. None of them staring at anything particular. Big Time Rush listen to every song the girl sang. JK was currently ending. JK really through them off.
All: I'm just playing when I say
That I really wanna date
I just wanna have fun, don't wanna be with just one
I'm just not that kinda girl to be all caught up in your world
I know I might of said some things
Did Hawk write that one? Because most of the girls sound the opposite of it. They were each giving each other knowing looks. But at the fire jam thing, James told them what Hawk did to him. They said they would only sing songs they wrote. The boys silently groaned inwardly. Girls.
The song that made it worst was next. Catch Me. Shouldn't their songs be about break ups not falling in love. James peeked in the door. His head snapped back to the wall. Logan gave him a skeptical look.
James mouth, "Dak."
Kendall raised an eyebrow, Carlos' jaw dropped, and Logan's eyes widened. They lyrics entering their minds.
Maddie: Before I fall too fast
Kiss me quick, but make it last
So I can see how badly this will hurt me
When you say goodbye
Elizabeth: Keep it sweet
Keep it slow
Let the future pass
And don't let go
Amber: But tonight
I could fall too soon
Under this beautiful moonlight
All: But you're so hypnotizing
You got me laughing while I sing
You got me smiling in my sleep
And I can see this unraveling
Your love is where I'm falling
But please don't catch me...
Maddie: See this heart
Won't settle down
Like a child running
Scared from a clown
I'm terrified
Of what you do
My stomach screams
Just when I look at you
Amber: Run far away
So I can breathe
Even though you're
Far from suffocating me
Elizabeth: I can't set my hopes too high
'Cause every hello ends with a
goodbye
All: But you're so hypnotizing
You got me laughing while I sing
You got me smiling in my sleep
And I can see this unraveling
Your love is where I'm falling
But please don't catch me...
Maddie: So now you see
Why I'm scared
I can't open up my heart
without a care
Elizabeth: But here I go
It's what I feel
Amber: And for the first time in my
life I know it's real
All: But you're so hypnotizing
You got me laughing while I sing
You got me smiling in my sleep
And I can see this unraveling
Your love is where I'm falling
So please don't catch me
If this is love please don't break me
I'm giving up so
Just catch me
All of them were in a confused state. That song was nice… Nothing mean in it. The four boys were dumbstruck. That was until Kelly came stomping down the hall. She was bout to gripe at them out about how she told them to hurry. But deep inside, she was happy they took to long because she got a short ten to fifteen minutes nap.
"Shh. We are going in," Logan whispered.
"Can I help you?" the blonde woman stood at the door of the studio. Each boy of Big Time Rush let out a shock squeal as Kelly look annoyed. They boys coward behind Kelly.
"File," Kelly demanded, holding her hand out behind her. Logan gulped and handed the file to her. "Yes, you can, Rebecca. Make sure Hawk gets these paper." Kelly gave the other woman the file folder.
Rebecca smirked, "Can do. Anything else? Would you boys like to say hello to Toxic Meltdown?"
"Uhmm…" Carlos started.
"We uhh-" Logan tried to help.
"Err." Kendall mumbled.
"We're just-" James was cut off by said girls coming out from behind the blonde woman.
"What are you guys doing here?" Michelle asked. Logan pointed to the folder in Rebecca's tan-ish hand. "Oh."
Dak was the next person to pop out, "Hey, guys!" Dak beamed.
"Hey…" BTR muttered their replies.
"You guys save me the trouble of having to hunt you down," Dak chuckled. The other boys gave him clueless look and raised eyebrow. "Saturday I'm-"
Elizabeth gasp, cutting Dak off, "Tomorrow! Carlos I can't go on a date with you tomorrow!"
"Why?" Carlos frowned.
"Dance practice all week," She sighed.
"Because Toxic Meltdown is going to be one of the opening acts for me Saturday night. As I was going to say before. Do you guys want to come?" There was an awkward silence before each boy slowly nodded their head. "Great!" Dak pulled out four VIP passes and gave them to each band member. Then he pulled out eight different VIP passes, handing them to Madelyn. She gave him a questioning look, "Those are for: Camille, Ms. Knight, Katie, Abby, Kyle, Jakub, Jo, and Jett."
"Ohh."
Dak pulled out four even more different VIP passes, "And these are you guys," he handed them to Michelle. "Now I gotta go meet up with my cousin and his friends so I'll see you all later," Dak hesitatingly leaned over and pecked Maddie's cheek, before walking off. The brunette's eyes widen as she stared at James, her hand on her cheek. The tallest member of BTR kept his gaze on the ground. Kendall and Logan each placed a hand on his shoulder from their places beside him.
Kelly gave an awkward cough before turning to the boys, "We should go." Each nodded and no one exchanged any goodbyes as they headed back to the limo.
"Ughh!" Michelle groaned. She then paused, "Wait…" Her eyes darted to Elizabeth, "You were going to go on a date with him?"
"Oh… Right… I forgot you went to go talk to Mama Knight when he yelled it…"
"How-"
"I told her to," Madelyn cut in. Michelle sighed in response. Madelyn gave a weak smile, "Soo… We should get back to singing."
"Actually," Hawk interrupted, "It's time for dance practice. Rebecca will be in there with you, but I'll be in here setting up songs."
Toxic Meltdown nodded and walked to the elevator. That not so long day, just went back to being long again. Freaking fantastic.
