1) "grounding all my plans (of ever really seeing california)" - small town au
Someone should have told James that kissing your best friend and sleeping with another friend’s girlfriend was a bad idea. And, honestly, they should have warned him before Kendall said he was in love with him and Camille ended up pregnant because now, James is ****ed.
2) "cause everything's wrong (and nothing ain't right)" - time travel au
The year is 1956 and seventeen year old James Diamond has everything that he could want. A group of great friends, a steady girlfriend and a brand new Thunderbird. His life would be perfect if his girlfriend hadn’t just found out about him messing around with his best friend. And just when James thinks that things can’t get any worse, he finds a time portal in the back of his closet and the next thing that he knows he’s emerging from a cabana on the side of an unfamiliar pool.
The year is 2012 and seventeen year old Kendall Knight has everything that he’s supposed to want. Two of the world’s best friends, the perfect girlfriend and a recording contract with the Gustavo Rocque. Still, he has the lingering suspicion that something is missing. When he meets the slightly eccentric James Diamond, a method actor who insists that he really is from the 1950s, Kendall can’t help thinking that he’s exactly what was missing.
(obviously with alternating povs okay)
3) "just living proof that the camera's lying" or maybe something else cliche. - reporter au
When Logan Mitchell gets an internship at a prestigious music magazine the summer before his senior year of high school, he's expecting to be sent on coffee runs or to staple meaningless papers together. He's not expecting to get told to write an article about what musicians are like away from the cameras and he's definitely not expecting to be shipped off on tour with Big Time Rush-- a band more known for their appearances on the covers of tabloids than they are for their music-- to do so.
There's Kendall Knight who's notorious for breaking up with his very pregnant girlfriend, America's sweetheart Jo Taylor, on a crowded street by screaming that he was in love with somebody else and punching her New Town High co-star, Jett Stetson on the red carpet for the last award's show that he attended. There's James Diamond who's been caught cheating in nearly every relationship that he's been in since coming to Hollywood. Then there's Carlos Garcia who doesn't seem interested in anything but partying and has a smile that makes Logan's heart race.
Between the lingering glances that he catches Kendall throwing James' way, the groupies that James brings back to the bus each night and the fact that Carlos seems to have absolutely no understanding of personal space, Logan isn't entirely sure that he'll make it out of the tour in one piece.
wow that last summary is kind of huge, but idk how to condense it :{
