Third Pov

The last stop was in a tiny town in Minnesota for Gustavo to find a singer. Well, his daughter Chanel is a singer but sometimes she writes the songs for her Papá.

Kelly rushes up to the limo and opens the door making more freezing cold air as the cold breeze makes Chanel cold. Chanel and her Papá, Gustavo climbs out of the limo.

"Where are Me and Nellie at? Why are Me and Nellie freezing cold?" Gustavo yells.

Chanel chuckles softly. "We're in a tiny town Papá."

Gustavo smiles at his daughter. And they begin to walk.

"You two are in Minnesota," Kelly informed them while handing them their drinks.

"What's up, Minnesota?!" Gustavo yells out to everybody while Chanel waves at everybody with a smile that makes everybody screams.

Kelly notices some fans of Chanel and nudges Chanel gently that made Chanel look at Kelly in confused but Kelly points at the fans and Chanel looks and smiles.

"Why don't you sign some autographs with your fans," Kelly suggests.

"Papá, can I go and sign some autographs with my fans?" Chanel asks.

"Of course, Nellie," Gustavo said softly.

Chanel smiles and walks up to some fans.

"Hola, girls," Chanel said softly.

That made the group of girls scream.

"Can you sign my notebook, Chanel?" A fan 1 asks with some tears.

Chanel smiles softly. "Of course sweetheart."

Chanel gently took the pen from the girl and signed her name to the girl's notebook.

"Thank you Chanel," fan 1 said.

Chanel smiles.

"Can you sign my cheetah girl poster?" fan 2 asks.

Chanel chuckles softly. "Of course gurl."

Chanel sign's the girls Cheetah Girl poster with the other girl's pen still.

"Thank you so much!" fan 2 said in tears.

Chanel smiles. "No problem gurl."

Chanel hands the pen back to the first girl who took it back with a smile.

"Can we take a picture with you Chanel?" Fan 3 asks.

Chanel smiles and nods. The three friends and Chanel took a selfie together.

"Thank you so much," Fan 3 said with a smile.

"Your welcome. But I have to go back so have a good night gurls," Chanel said as she walked back to Papá and Kelly while she heard the girls say bye.

"Anyways, I hate them all," Gustavo said to his daughter who was beside him again and Kelly.

Kelly nods. "Yes, I know."

They walked again and Gustavo and Chanel went to drink their drinks but nothing came out.

"And the state for freezing my and Nellie's latties," Gustavo said as he dumped his on Kelly's hand and also grabbed Nellie's lattie and dumped it on Kelly's hand too.

"And also, Papá needs a bigger coat," Chanel said as Gustavo nodded agreeing with his daughter as the coffee cups were thrown behind them.

"Yes, I agree with you, Nellie. But you also need a better coat too," Gustavo said.

Chanel sighs softly. "I'm fine Papá."

Gustavo nodded.

Kelly loops her arm through Chanel's arm. "Okay. It's our last stop, so just focus and try not to make everybody cry. Somewhere here is your next big star. I can feel it."

Chanel nodded agreeing with Kelly.

Gustavo stops walking and looks at his daughter, Chanel and Kelly and points to himself. "I'm the star! What I need is a canvas with great hair that I can paint my pomp on. I need a singing block of wood that I can set on fire, so please tell me, where in, uh--"

"Minnesota, Papá," Chanel said softly.

"Thanks pumpkin. Where in Minnesota is my fire?" Gustavo asked.

Meanwhile at the Knight's Home.

Four boys sitting on the coach, groaning in pain from getting beat up from the girls hockey team as What if from the movie that Chanel Rocque starred in Cheetah Girls, was playing in the background.

"Chanel Rocque makes the pain go away," Kendall said. The three agree while Carlos stares dreamily at the screen where Chanel was on.

"How does she keep her curls like that?" James asks.

The other boys shrug with a smile.

"I think we lost Carlos from staring at Chanel on tv," Logan teases.

Kendall and James chuckles while Carlos blushes.

"Are you done teasing me guys?" Carlos asks, still blushing.

"Nope," The three boys chorused with smirks

Carlos groans.

"Do you wanna be a pop star?" MTV News man asks on tv.

James looks at the tv. "Yes."

"Well, today's your chance if you're in Minnesota. Are you ready?" The man said from the tv.

James looks at his best friends and looks back to the tv. "I'm in Minnesota."

A girl on tv screams towards the camera.

"I'm gonna be the next Gwen Stefani!" Girl yells as the boys watch the tv.

"That's Jenny Tinkler from homeroom," Kendall said as he and the other three stood up.

"Gustavo Rocque, nineties mega-producer of bands like Boyquake, Boyz in the Attic, and Boyzcity is lookin' for his next Pop superstar to sing along with his superstar daughter Chanel Rocque. But he's even more famous for his quote in "Rolling Stone," when he said, "I could a dog into a pop star," The man said on the tv.

James hits his friends. "I sing better than a dog."

The others smile amusingly and look back on the screen.

"Sign ups are until 5pm. So if a pop star is on..." the man trails off on the tv.

The four boys look at the clock.

"Call all moms now," Kendall said.

They got their phones from their pockets.

The Man on the tv. "You still have time. I'm Sway—"

"Mom, call me when you get this message. We need a ride real bad," the boys chorused on the phones and closed them and placed them on the coffee table and seat down and waited.

"Ring!" James shouts at the phones.

{phones ringing}

Carlos grabs it. "I got it. Hello? Yeah. Uh-huh. Okay, great. Get here as fast as you can!"

Carlos hangs up.

"Your mom's coming!" James said in excitement.

Carlos looks at them. "No, but this nice lady's sending her crew over to give us a free estimate on aluminum siding."

James screams and attacks Carlos.

Logan and Kendall wince and move so they don't get hit from things that were thrown at them.

Logan looks at Kendall. "Kendall!"

Kendall rushes to stand beside Logan. "Logan has a learner's permit."

James and Carlos were standing up and narrow their eyes at each other.

Logan looks at Kendall. "But I need an adult in the car with me and a car."

James puts down a vase and looks at Kendall. "Kendall, do something."

Kendall looks confused. "What are you looking at me for? Logan's the genius."

Logan looks at Kendall. "What-- I panic under pressure and then you always come up with the answer."

James and Carlos gave looks at Kendall.

"What? That is so not true, and-- I know how to get there," Kendall said, finally coming up with an idea.

Chanel Pov

"And I'm so in love with you," A girl sang badly.

Me, Papá and Kells have been sitting here for a while and we can't find any talent for papi. I was speaking in Spanish while rubbing my temples. Kells rubs my arm in comfort and Papá notices my annoyed look.

"Your singing makes me wanna dance. Off a cliff! You're making my daughter in pain and making her speak in Spanish. Next!" Papá yells.

Next guy picked a song where the words were thunder and he just kept banging his head and moving the mic.

"Next!" Me and Papá yelled to the weird guy.

The next guy was way worse, he was playing air drums and kept singing how he loves life.

Papá banged his hands against the table. "Get off the stage!"

The next person was doing some bird call and I groan, as Papá squeezed the coffee lid off from his coffee.

The next guy was just yelling, this made me speak in Spanish again as Kells held her hand against her forehead, I heard Papá grabbed something and looked and my eyes widened that weapon could hurt the guy. Kells and Papá started to fight over it.

"Próximo!" I yelled in Spanish.

Now there was a cute dog that was just barking on the stage which was not too bad then the others.

"That's actually the best singing we've heard all day," Papá told me and Kells.

I nodded with a smile.

"Next!" Papá yells out.

"Aww Papá, that was the perro más lindo," I whined.

Papá and Kells chuckled softly. They both knew Spanish so they are used to me speaking Spanish sometimes. Kells knew Spanish because my mamá taught her and they were friends.

The next few people were just wailing or something as I was checking my hair in my mini mirror.

"Listen here, sister. That's the worst singing I've ever heard in my life! And my daughter can sing better than you!" Papá yells.

Kells looks at me and Papá. "You know these people have feelings, right?"

Me and Papá look at her direction.

"Oh, neat. Guess what I have? 29 platinum records along with Nellie's show rewards. I don't need feelings only if I'm around my daughter. What I need is a guy the record company paid me a million dollars to find to make me fire. That if you and I do not find him or her, Nellie we'll have to move to another record studio and get fired! Keep walking! Don't stop at the microphone! Just keep walking! And good-bye," Papá said while freaking out.

"Take some deep breaths, Papá," I said softly.

Papá took some breathes like I said.

"Don't worry. Sign-ups are until 5," Kells tries to comfort Papá but as she looks at her watch. "and it's one minute till 5."

Papá begins to yell.

"I come with you Kells, and get Papá a coffee," I said as I stood up.

Kells nods with a smile.

"Papá, I'm gonna get a coffee for you," I said softly.

"It's okay sweetheart, I don't need one," Papá said while calming down.

I nodded with a smile.

Me and Kells walk out and check out if there are any more people.

We heard running and we looked up and saw a boy in front of us.

"My name is James Diamond, and I-- I wanna be famous. Whoa, oh-- Ow!" James yelps as Kells puts a number on him.

Kells picks up a clipboard and hands it to him. "Fill out the rest of this sheet and wait for your number to be called."

Kells walks away a bit as James smiles.

I saw more of his friends coming to him.

"Did you get in?" a niño lindo asks.

James shows them.

"Yes!" a niño lindo cheers.

I smile while watching them.

"This is madness! I'm a star! I'm gonna be the next Gwen Stefani!" a girl shouts out.

I turn and watch 2 security guards drag her out as I wince when I hear Papá screams again.

"Oh, hey, guys," the girl said while still getting dragged away.

"Hey, Jenny," The four boys chorused.

"He's evil. I'm a star!" Jenny yells out.

"Wait, boys," I said to the two security guards.

They stop and look at me.

I walk up to them. "Can you please let this gurl go but you two can stay on her sides."

They put her down.

"Thank you Miss. Chanel Rocque," Jenny said with a big smile.

I smile. "Your welcome gurl."

"I'm also a fan of you from Cheetah girls movies and I was wondering if you can sign something of mine?" Jenny asked as she was digging through her shoulder bag.

I smile. "Of course gurl."

Jenny took out her notebook and her pen and handed them to me.

I looked at the notebook and smiled and saw the notebook was Cheetah girls. I started to sign something.

"You know, you are my role model Chanel. I always wanted to just like you," Jenny said.

I smiled and finished the autograph and gave them back to her. "That's really sweet of you gurl. But if you want to be a singer or an actress, practice more everyday just like my Mamma and Papá told me to do when I was little but after everything my Papá told me to keep going and never stop. So Jenny keep practicing, can you do that for me?"

Jenny held her sign notebook to her chest and smiled. "Yes. I'll do that for you Miss. Chanel."

I smile. "Have a good night, Jenny."

"You too Chanel," Jenny said.

Jenny walks away with the two security guards on her sides.

"That was nice of you to do," A voice said behind me.

I looked and saw the boys looking at me with smiles.

I smile. "It was no problem. I could tell she had dreams."

They smile.

Kells walks up to them with clipboards and hands me the numbers which I hold. "You, name."

The boy next to James points to himself. "Me? Oh, no, thank you. I'm gonna be a doctor."

Kells had a serious look. "Yeah, well, I'm a desperate talent scout, and you have a cute smile and Justin Timberlake made $44 million dollars last year."

The boy points at himself. "Hit me."

I slap gently the number to him and Kells hands him a clipboard.

"I want to be famous, too," the niño lindo said. He then starts singing.

I smile and slap a number to his chest.

"Yes," niño lindo cheers as Kells hands him a clipboard.

Me and Kells walk to the tall blondie boy.

"You, rubia, alta y cejas, you want your dreams to come true today?" I ask. I heard Kells snickers when I speak Spanish a bit.

Even the boy who wanted to be a doctor laughs a bit. I guess he knows spanish.

"Sorry. My dream is to play center for the Minnesota Wild. But I'll also consider The Maple Leafs," The blondie told me with a smile.

I felt Kells tense knowing that Mamma and I watched the Maple Leafs games.

I give a tight smile to the blondie. "Oh."

I slapped the number to his chest hard and made the others wince. Kells hands him the clipboard.

Kells looks at James. "810 is next."

Kells walks away.

"I'll be right there Kells. Tell Papá that I'll be right there," I called out.

Kells nodded.

I saw James looking down at the number and started to freak out and change the number with the boy who wants to be a doctor.

"Oh, look. You're next," James said.

They look at him confused.

"Before your friend goes up James, I want to know your friend's names," I said.

James nodded with a smile. "This is Logan the one I swab numbers with, the one who wears the hamlet is Carlos and the tall blondie is Kendall."

They wave with smiles.

I smile. "Nice to meet you boys. I'm Chanel Rocque."

"You're pretty," Carlos said.

I blush with a shy smile. "Thanks Carlos.

Carlos smiles. The others smile amusing.

Carlos looks at Logan. "Anyways, dude you can't sing."

"Carlos, that was the worst pep talk in history. Luckily I'm a genius. Kendall," Logan said.

"Beat Box," Kendall said.

I raise my eyebrow with a smile.

"Got it," Logan said as he slaps his clipboard to Carlos.

I chuckle. "Come on beat box boy then."

I heard the others laugh.

Me and Logan walk in the room.

"Just to warn you Logan, my Papá is very strict but I'm rooting for you," I said.

Logan nodded with a smile.

I walk back to my spot beside Papá while Logan walks up on the stage.

Logan starts to beatbox in mic as I nodded my head along to the beat with a smile.

Papá did the beatbox sound and yelled. "Stop! Stop it forever!"

"But, I just started," Logan said while getting nervous.

I look at Papá with an angry calm look. Kells notices my angry calm look and she tries to get Papá to stop.

"And now you're finished. But I'm not, because I wanna tell you what else you are!" Papá yells.

"I'll be right there Logan," I said, calming while glaring at Papá. In the corner of my eyes I saw Logan nodded, shaking and left.

I saw Papá body freeze as he knew he was in trouble.

He looks at me with a smile. "Hey sweetheart, why don't we take a good breath."

"Oh boy," I heard Kells whisper.

I started to speak spanish in anger while Papá winced.

Third Pov (short)

Everyone in the hall heard the Rocque girl speaking spanish in anger and they wince.

The boys wince but Logan winces more knowing the words that his new best friend might have said to her papi.

"Don't go in there. He--he's-- he's Satan. He's Satan with bug-eyed sunglasses. How can Nel be his daughter?" Logan asks while lifting his feet up on the chair and hugs his legs.

"811, 811's up," Kelly calls out from the door.

"How's Nel?" Logan asks Kelly.

Kelly looks at Logan. "She's okay. She's just taking a breather so she's coming out here to sit with you guys."

They nodded. Kelly left. A security guard gently brought an angry spanish girl and one of the staff brought her a chair and the security guard gently placed her down on the chair as the boys watched in concern.

"Thank you," Chanel said.

"No problem Mrs. Chanel Rocque," the security guard said. Then walks back.

"Are you okay Nel?" Logan asks.

"Yeah, I'm fine. I just don't like yelling. Besides you were good Logan but still needs to practice more," Chanel said.

The boys chuckles and smiled.

James remembers and looks down on the number and swabs with Carlos. "All you, buddy. Go get 'em. Yeah."

Carlos looks at Kendall and looks at Logan who was hugging his knees and he takes a breath, jumps up and puts his hamlet on.

"I'm coming to support you Carlos," Chanel said.

Carlos nods with a smile.

Chanel Pov

Me and Carlos walk in the room.

"Carlos, you're gonna do great and do not let my Papá words get to you," I said.

Carlos nodded with a smile. "Can I get a good luck kiss on the cheek?"

I smile shyly. I was on my tippy toes and kissed Carlos's cheek for good luck and stepped down.

"Good luck," I said softly.

Carlos smiles.

I walk to my seat as Carlos walks on the stage next.

Kells nudged me with a smirk. "What was that Chal?"

I blush. "Nothing."

Carlos grabs the mic and makes owl sounds making me aww while Papá becomes confused. As then Carlos made farting noises in the mic which made me hold a giggle. And he does it again. And Papá begins to climb over the table towards Carlos as me and Kells hold him back.

"Good job, Carlos," I called out.

Carlos smiles and leaves.

I look and smile big seeing James on the stage

"Well, he's not hideous," Papá said to me and Kells.

I smile. "Of course he's not hideous, Papá! He's perfecto as well as the others."

Kells smirks. "It's because of that boy that just left."

I blush.

James began to sing, he was amazing. I knew that the others came in and hid behind us.

♫People say I'm the life♫

♫Of the party because♫

♫'Cause I tell a joke or two♫

♫Although I might be laughing loud and hearty♫

♫Deep inside, I know♫

James then went a little pitchy at the end and I felt Papá tense up as James coughs. I felt bad for James, he is good but he slips and I understand. Papá was gonna yell as I gave James a comforting smile which he thanked me with a shaky smile.

"Stop. Stop," Papá told James.

I look at Papá with a glare while Kells places a hand to calm me down.

"I'm sorry. I got a little nervous there. Can I start over?" James asks.

Papá nods with a sarcastic smile. "Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, start over. Why don't you, uh, go outside and then just don't come back in, okay? Next!"

I shake in anger. "Papá! We talk about this! Besides, he's a great singer!"

"Umm, Chan, sweetheart, why don't we take some deep breaths before you get into a panic attack," Kells said softly.

I nodded shaky. I took some deep breaths.

"I'm good, just like Channa said," James said.

"I don't need good. I need the fire, okay? I need someone to knock me out of my seat, and as you can tell, I'm still in it, because you have no talent!" Papá yelled.

I looked and saw James upset and that made me more mad.

I start yelling at Papá in spanish again as Kell holds me back while Papá flinches. I finish yelling and take a breath out.

"I don't think we should be on Nel's angry list," I heard Logan whisper.

I chuckle quietly.

"Do you feel better now Chan?" Kells asks softly.

I nodded.

"No talent?! No talent?!" Kendall yells as he comes up here. "you're the one with no talent. You haven't had a hit in ten years, oh wait actually you do, you're daughter. Who is like a spoiled brat maybe that's why her mom left," Kendall spoke. I felt my eyes water.

"Dude!" I heard the other three boys hiss.

"Hey, "Girl to my Heart" by Boyquake was a hit 9 years ago and you don't even start with my daughter and that's not why!" Papá points out as he rubs my shoulder in comfort as I look at Kendall.

Kendall noticed I was crying and his eyes widened. "I'm so sorry Shel."

I look away.

"Anyways, oh, "Girl to my Heart." Oh, let me see if I remember that Rock classic," Kendall told us. He begins to sing and my watery eyes widen at his voice.

"Girl, my eyes,

And, girl, my mind,

Kendall jumps on the table getting in Papá's face as I lean back.

"It never stops after it starts,

Kendall did this cool spin which made me impressed, then he turned to me instead of Papá.

♫Cause your a girl♫

♫A girl, a girl to my heart♫

♫Heart, heart, heart♫

He was in my face which was very uncomfortable. I was happy that he sang but I was still mad/upset with him, as Kells called the severity over but before she could do that I put my hoop earrings on side.

"Oh god, this boy made her take her earrings out," I heard Papá groans.

I growl and jump at Kendall. "That's it!"

Me and Kendall rolled around on the ground well Kendall was yelping in pain as the security came over and pulled us apart as I was yelling at him in spanish.

I look at him with tears. "Do you know why my mamma isn't here!?"

James who was on the stage still and Kendall looked at me with soft looks.

"Nellie, you don't have to," Papá said softly.

I look at Kendall and James with tears. "No it's okay, Papá. Me and my Papá lost my momma when I was little. She died with cancer."

They both had tears in their eyes.

We then heard Carlos' voice.

"She really had a rough childhood," I heard Carlos say while sniffling.

"Yeah, but Kendall shouldn't have done that," I heard Logan say with a soft voice.

I started to calm down. The guard let me go as I was looking at Kendall. Kendall looks at Papá.

"Hey, here's a new hit for you," Kendall said and began to dance once again which I smiled with amusement.

♫Oh, you're such a turd♫

♫Oh, yeah, a giant turd♫

♫And you look like a turd♫

♫And you smell like a turd♫

The security guard who held him who let us go, grabbed Kendall again as the one from behind grabbed him as well dragging him away from us. Ken kept singing, I smile amusing about the song that Ken was singing and some awesome dances moves. Kells look at me and smile because she saw a smile on my face again.

Kendall began to fight the guards off. "Hey, get off of me. Come on, get off me."

I became worried and my eyes widen in more in worried when I saw Carlos jumping on one of the guards back and I saw Logan ran in and help and then I saw James jumping and joining in too.

"Everything is gonna be okay, Chal," Kelly said softy while placing a hand on my shoulder.

I nodded my head with a worried look. Then I narrow my eyes when I saw Papá trying to go over and join but Kelly held him back and then we three saw an old lady came out with her cane towards the boys and the security.

Third Pov

After Chanel, her Papá, Gustavo and Kelly talk about the boys who impressed the three and only Kelly and Gustavo decide who's coming back with the three to LA because Chanel couldn't decide because she knew her new best friends were good. That's why they were standing outside in the cold in front of the boys house. Chanel ring the doorbell as they could hear singing coming closer. Chanel giggles at the song.

Gustavo smile at his daughter while Kelly hid a smile as the door opened and the boys screamed as Gustavo waved.

The boys look and smile when they saw their new best friend and look back at Gustavo.

"Yes! I knew you'd come back for me," James said as he running out and hugs Gustavo.

Chanel giggles that her Papá got hugged and Carlos looks at her with a soft smile and didn't notice that Kelly and the other 2 boys look at him with amusing smiles.

Gustavo push James off of him. "I'm not here for you." and points at Kendall. "I'm here for him."

The boys stare at them. "What?"

Chanel started to speak spanish to her Papi in anger and was about to attack her Papá, Gustavo who flinch but Kelly held her back while the boys watch amusing from the door.

"I'll make some tea and some hot coco for the Chanel," A woman yelled from inside.

When Chanel pause and heard the word hot coco, she becomes happy and walks in leaving 2 gaping Gustavo and Kelly outside while the boys laugh softly.

They were all inside except for Chanel who was already inside talking to Ken's mom and they were sitting in the living room with Gustavo and Kelly drinking their tea while Chanel was drinking her hot coco.

"Mrs. Knight, I wanna take your family to Los Angeles and produce some demo tracks with Kendall," Gustavo said while pointed to Kendall as Kelly stand behind him while Chanel sit on her knees at the coffee table while drinking her hot coco.

"You can't be serious?" Kendall ask as he looks at his and the others new best friend's dad in debrief and look at Chanel who looks at her hot coco.

Before anyone answer Katie came back with some things and the others saw what they were and chuckles softly.

"Can you please sign these for me Chanel? I'm a huge fan of your character from Cheetah Girls," Katie said with a smile.

Chanel smiles. "Of course chica."

Chanel took them gently and started to sign them while Katie sat on the ground beside her.

"Anyways, It'll takes 3 months. We'll take care of all of your expenses," Kelly said.

"Kendall, you have the fire. You also have anger management so does Nellie as you saw what happen." Which made the others wince abit but nodded. "Some people say I have anger management issues, but I also have 5 houses!" Gustavo told Kendall as James starts to sing again.

"People say I'm the life.."

"Stop it. Please. Don't ever do that again," Gustavo said to James.

James nodded sadly. "Yeah."

"Thank you," Gustavo said.

Chanel finish signing everything and hand it back with a smile and Katie look at them with a smile and hugs Chanel on the side which made Chanel look shock for minute and then smile and hug her back.

The boys and Mrs. Knight saw and smile softly at the scene even Gustavo and Kelly look and smile.

Katie pulls away with a smile. "Thank you Cee."

Chanel smiles. "Your welcome chica."

"Anyways, Kendall, we've traveled to 22 cities. We've auditioned over 20,000 people, and Gustavo's picked you," Kelly said as Gustavo made hand gestures towards Kendall.

Chanel and Katie stands up from the ground as Katie goes back standing by where her brother, Kendall was sitting while Chanel went to stand behind her Papá.

"But I'm not a singer," Kendall told the two as Chanel raise her eyebrow at Kendall.

Katie looks at her brother, Kendall. "You sing all the time. In the car, at the table. You sing to me when I can't sleep at night."

Chanel looks at Kendall with amusement.

"No, I don't," Kendall denies.

"Yes, you do, honey," Mrs. Knight told her son, which made Chanel smile.

Gustavo helds his cup of tea and looks at Kelly and his daughter, Chanel.

"When you shovel the driveway. When you answered the door 2 minutes ago," Katie continued as Chanel giggles at the song.

"But that's not singing," Kendall still denying.

"That is singing estúpido," Chanel said.

Logan knew the word and snickers quietly.

Carlos and James leans to Logan and whisper. "What does that word mean in English?"

"Stupid," Logan said quietly while still laughs quietly.

Carlos and James then laughs quietly.

"Yes, it is, honey," Mrs. Knight said while trying to hid a amuse smile because she heard what Logan said.

Katie looks at Kelly, Gustavo and Cee. "And he's always singing along to the nineties channel."

"Katie!" Kendall said while getting frustrated.

Chanel smiles amusing.

"So, what do you say, kiddo, huh? You wanna go out to L.A. and be moulded and shaped into a big old star by the Gustave Rocque? Ha Ha," Gustavo ask as Chanel beaming but also wanted the three boys to come too.

"No," Kendall told them after giving an apology smile to Shel and after that Gustavo broke his tea cup as Chanel was breathing heavily. "Oh gosh, Mrs. Knight? Do you have a paper bag?" Kelly ask while trying to calm Chanel down.

Mrs. Knight nodded with a worried look. "I do. Katie go get a paper bag quick."

Katie nods quickly as Logan comes over and checks his new best friend in worried.

Katie came back and hands the paper bag to Logan with a worried look as Logan gives it to Nel and she started to use it for air.

Chanel Pov

I was breathing through a paper bag with Logan beside me while I felt the others worried looks on me.

"I'm gonna need to take a minute. I'm gonna need to take a minute right now," Papá said as he stands up and heads outside.

I remove the paper bag and hand it to Kelly as I shaky taking my money out and started to count it. "I'm fine. It's for the teacup."

We wince as we heard smashing.

I was putting the money down as I sigh. "And the planter outside." More stuff happen outside.

I saw the boys gasp as they watch me placing my money down on the table.

I sigh and grab 4 cards that haves my number from my purse and hand them out to the boys. "Here's my card. If you change your mind Ken, call. You should think about this Ken. We leave at 2:00."

The boys look at me from cards with soft smiles as I smile and me and Kells left.

The next day

Me, Papá, Kells and my doggy Chihuahua, Storm that Papá got for me were on our way to the airport as my phone rings and I answer it. "Chanel Rocque, Rocque Records."

I heard Kendall chuckles on the other line. "Hey Shel."

I smile. "Hi Ken."

"I have thought about it with the others when they came over at my job," Kendall said on the other line.

"Yeah," I said on the phone.

"I'll go if the boys can come too, " Kendall said on the phone.

I smile big. "Of course they can, Ken!"

"Great. I'll text you where I work," Kendall said on the line.

"Okay. See ya," I said then I hung up and look at Kells and Papá.

I felt the buzz and I said the text from Ken and I saw the address.

I look at Papá and Kells and told the news quickly then we yelled at the driver to head where the boys were and I was excited and pet Storm but once we got there I look in awe as we got out with me holding Storm in my arms.

"Look storm it's a grocery store," I said to Storm who was in my arms.

"Aww cute doggy," I heard Carlos coo.

I giggle softy.

We were in front of the boys as Papi had a stare down with the boys.

"Well?" Papá ask while throwing his hands up as we waited.

"Ok, I'll go to L.A. with you and record some demos if... you take my buds and make us a singing group," Kendall said to Papá.

Carlos looks at Kendall. "Dude!"

"Cola up my nose," Logan said closing his eyes tightly.

Kendall look at them. "Well, you guys said you would go. Besides Carlos, you wanted to go because you have a crush on Shel and you wanted to get to know her better."

Me and Carlos blush at that while we look at each other with shy smiles. While the others snickers.

Papá takes off his sunglasses. "I-- I'm sorry. Are you trying to make a deal with me? I make the deals!"

"If you want me, you have to take all of us. You don't want Shel to be upset more do you?" Kendall ask at the last part.

I made a puppy sad look with Storm who was in my arms.

Papá laughs nervously but still had a serious look. "Have you even heard your friends sing? Oh that's right. They can't."

"Papá, they can sing but they have to practice harder like what you told me," I said while petting Storm.

The boys smile at me.

Papá gave me a look. "Nellie, I told you that because you wanted to stop singing when we lost your mom."

I smile sadly. "I know, Papá."

"Anyways, well, I'm no mega-producer like you, but I know they can sing better than dogs, Shel is a great singer too, and you can turn them into stars. Right?" Kendall asked

I saw James holding up a paper and I burst into giggles at my Papá's hair do.

Papá grab it out of James hand and throw it behind him. "Is this supposed to sway me? I'm Gustavo Rocque. I'm amazing! I'm amazing! And if you think for one second that I'm so desperate because me and Nellie have been toured 22 cities and I haven't able to find anybody with some help from my daughter, you can think again. Because there is no way, no way Gustavo is takin' the 4 dogs that became best friends with my sweet daughter from Minnesota to Los Angeles to make them stars! It's never gonna happen! Never!"

I was slowly beginning to smile.

Kendall smiles amusing at Papá. "So, we have a deal because you actually making Shel become more nervous."

I look at Papá as he look at me and he saw my look and look back at the boys.

Papá smile. "Yep."

"Yayy," I cheer.

I gave Storm to Kells and hug Papá. "Muchas gracias papá."

Papá hugged me back. "Your welcome Pumpkin."

I let go of the hug and I got Storm from Kells.

"I'll meet you at the limo," I said to Papá and Kells.

They nodded and walk away.

I look and smile at the boys. "I'm so happy you all are coming."

The boys smile.

"Can we pet your dog?" Carlos ask softly.

I beamed. "Of course!"

The boys came over and started to pet Storm in my arms.

"Why didn't you have your dog with you last night?" James ask while still petting him.

The other nodded.

"I had to keep him at the dog shelter," I said softy.

"Ah I see," The boys chorused.

"Shel, I'm sorry what I said last night," Kendall said sadly.

I smile. "It's okay Ken. You were just standing up to your best friend James because of my Papá."

Kendall smile. We all heard the limo honk.

"Come on pumpkin! You'll get to see the 'Dogs' in LA," We heard Papá yelled.

I grumble in spanish.

The boys laugh.

Kendall had a amusing smile. "I know what estúpido mean. Logan and the other two told me this morning."

I smile. "I'm sorry Ken."

The boys laugh.

"It's okay Shel. But anyways you and Storm should go before your dad yells more," Kendall said.

I chuckle softy. "Yeah."

The boys back up. I smile one last time and walk towards the limo with Storm in my arms and open the door and look back at the boys and shout. "See you there boys!" Then getting in and shut the door.

Third Pov

The boys arrive in LA as Kelly show them around.

"Welcome to the Palm Woods. Home of the future famous," Kelly said.

Mrs. Knight touch a palm tree. "That's the first palm tree I've ever touch."

They all smile.

Kelly smile. "Every year, kids and parents from all over the world come here looking for fame in TV, movies, and music."

"Oh, hey. There's that funny kid from the juice box commercials," Kendall pointed out with a smile.

"I just want my childhood back!" the boy yelled.

His mother pulled him along. "Tyler let's go."

Kelly went back to talking. "Okay. You guys are gonna love it here. The rooms are clean, you're close to the studio."

As Kelly about to continued the boys raise their hands.

"Yes, boys?" Kelly ask.

They pulled their hands down and the three push Carlos and he gave them a look.

Carlos sigh and look at Kelly. "Does Chuchie live here or does she live with her dad Gustavo?"

Kelly hid a soft smile at the boy's words. "Thanks for reminding me, Carlos."

Carlos smiles and nodded.

Kelly looks unsure to tell them but she knows that these boys cares about Chan especially Carlos. "She use to live here but she got lonely and miss her Papá, Gustavo so she and her dog Storm went back to live with him. It was still hard for both of them because of what happen to Chan's Mamá. Like she said Kendall, she lost her mamá at age of 4 or so. So please be there for her when she haves bad days."

The boys nodded with sad looks while Mrs. Knight and Katie had tears for Chanel.

"Anyways, and there is an amazing pool where Chan and Storm hangs out," Kelly said.

Carlos was the first one to drop his bag and rushes out and the others just smile amusing and the other boys drop their bags too and rushes out.

Kelly, Mrs. Knight and Katie watches.

There was a guy jumping in the pool.

The boys were relaxing in the chairs.

"We're so not in Minnesota anymore," James said while relaxing.

Logan lifts his head up and pretends to be confused. "Uh, Minni who now?"

The others chuckles.

Kendall sit up and smile. "What can I say? You guys were right."

A girl that is best friends with Chanel slaps Kendall in the face. "How dare you! What we had was real! But you threw it all away for Trish! I never wanna see you again, Troy! Never!" Then she ran away screaming and crying.

"What just happened?" Kendall ask as a Spanish girl and her dog, storm was sitting across the pool laughing softly because she saw her mejor amigo Camille acting and slap Kendall.

"You new guys just met Camille, the Palm Woods method actress queen and she's also Chanel's Best friend," the can spoke to the boys as Kendall open it as the boy stood up. "The name's Tyler. You may seen me acting on various juice box commercials. Only, I don't wanna be an actor. I wanna be a kid." He told them, his mother begins yelling for him. "Oh, hide me," He told them, crunching back in the can as Kendall listened and putting the top back on.

The mother came over. "Have you seen my son? Red hair, adorable, born to be a star? We've got an audition!"

The boys pointed. "He went that way."

The mother ran off.

"She's gone," Kendall told him, as he took the lid off as the boy popped out. "Thanks."

"So is everyone here an actor?" Logan asks the young boy.

"No. That's guitar dude. He's a "songwriter," " Tyler pointed to guitar dude. "what's up." Then guitar dude got up.

" What's up? What's up? What's up?" He sung as James throw a piece sign to him as a dog started to bark.

"Oh, that's Lighting. The TV wonder dog," Tyler said as he pointed to the dog. The dog then waved. "He's good," Kendall told him as Carlos nodded.

Suddenly Storm jump on Carlos chair, Carlos smiles and pets him.

"Oh I see you met Storm," Tyler said with a smile.

The boys nodded with smiles

Carlos picks Storm as Storms gets comfortable in his arms which made the others smile.

"Anyways, oh, and then there's the Jennifers. Three girls all have the same name, who sing, dance, and act." He grabbed a fan pointing it in their directions as they walk by. "Hey!" James yelled at them as Chanel looks and narrows her eyes at the three Jennifers "we're in a band." He told them as the girls freaks out. "really? Oh, my gosh!" They told them as Chanel got off the chair and put on her cover and was about to go over there "and we're actresses who don't care." The burnette one told them as Carlos was still holding storm still didn't get the hint but he knows he likes Chuchie so he pretends. "wanna go to the movies tonight?" The other three knew what their best friend was doing and hid amuse smiles while Chanel bit her lip to hid her sadness "are guys starring in the movie?" The blonde one ask him. Carlos then replied. "no." Then they said something at the same time and walk off.

Kendall looks at Carlos. "That was good dude that you pretend."

James and Logan nodded.

Carlos pets Storm. "Don't get me wrong, the Jennifers are pretty but Chuchie is the prettiest."

Where Chanel was she heard what Carlos said about her made her smile. So she walk over there with her cover.

The boys and Tyler heard footsteps and look and The four boys had their jaws dropped what she was wearing but James, Kendall and Logan became normal and look at Carlos and smirk when they saw Carlos blushing badly.

Chanel stands in front of them with a smile. "Hi boys, I can see your already relaxing."

"Yeah, it's amazing here," Logan said.

Chanel smiles and looks at Carlos. "How about you, Carlos? How do you like Palm Woods so far?"

Carlos clears his throat and smile. "It's great here."

"That's great. And I see storm came to visit," Chanel said with smile while looking at her dog in Carlos arms.

Carlos chuckles softly. "Yeah."

"And I can also see you met the amazing actress and singer, Chanel Rocque," Tyler said.

The boys nodded.

Suddenly one of the people accidentity bumps into Chanel who was near the edge of the pool and made her fall in the water which she screams.

"Somebody go get a towel!" Tyler yells in worried. Lighting dog went to grab one or two.

The boys went to the edge of the pool in worried. Carlos passes Storm to Logan who took him and Carlos went down on the ladder and look up at the boy. "How deep is in?"

Tyler eyes widen remembers that Chanel couldn't swim that well. "It's not that deep but Chanel can't swim that well."

That made the boys widen their eyes so Carlos went down and was in the water and swims to Chanel who was splashing. Carlos grabs her gently. "Hey, I got you, Chuchie."

Chanel helds onto Carlos tightly as Carlos swims towards everyone with Chuchie in his arms. Carlos got to the edge where Kendall was already to get Shel.

"Chuchie, Kendall is gonna grab you from me so I can get up the ladder," Carlos said softly.

What made everyone's eyes soften was that Chanel was holding onto Carlos tightly not wanting to let go of him.

"Come on, Shel. I got you," Kendall said softly in a brotherly way.

Chanel took a shaky breathe and reach Ken's hand and Kendall pulls her gently out of the water. Chanel hugs Kendall who hugs her back. Carlos went to the ladder and climbs up and walks to Chanel with a worried look.

Lighting came back with two towels in his mouth and drops them at Chanel's feet and bark. Chanel broke the hug with Kendall and look down and shaky chuckles and grabs the towels from the ground and pats Lighting.

"Thanks, Lighting," Chanel said shaky while pats his head. Lighting barks that made everyone laughs softly and they went back to what they were all doing.

Chanel hands the second towel to Carlos who took it gently with a smile.

"Thanks, Carlos," Chanel said softly as she wraps the towel around her shoulders.

Carlos smiles softly. "No problem Chuchie."

Storm barks from Logan's arms.

Chanel looks at Storm and smile and walk over to Logan who had a smile.

Logan hands Storm gently to Nel. "Here. Storm was really worried about you, Nel."

Chanel smiles at Storm in her arms. "Aww did my little cutie boo worried about me?"

Storm barks and licks Chanel in the face which made her giggle. While the boys laugh.

"Anyways, okay, reality check. We have to promise ourselves now that we're not gonna let this singing thing or this town change us. We are 4 Hockey players from Minnesota and we can never forget that. Do we all agree?" Kendall asked the other three boys.

"Yes!" The other three chorused.

Chanel looks at them amuse.

Chanel Pov

While I was waiting for the boys to come back to the pool to change. I was still in my bikini and had taken my cover off and I went to the edge of the pool and sat down and put my feet in and slid in the water slowly and I was in the water and I stood up in the water seeing it was shadow water. I was thinking of practice swimming so I can do better so I did some swimming laps to get better of swimming.

While I was trying to get better at swimming, I didn't see the boys looking at me with soft smiles that I was getting better.

"Hey," I heard a voice.

I pause swimming and look and saw the boys in different shirts and was smiling. I swim back where they were and grab the edge of the pool and smile. "Hey."

"We see that your practicing swimming," Logan said with a smile.

"Yeah, I am." I said with a smile and splash at Carlos who gasped. I giggle.

Carlos narrow his eyes at me playful.

I smile cheeky at him. Carlos jumps in the pool which made me squeal. Carlos pops up in the surface.

I giggle while he grabs my waist to pull me towards him.

"That was really mean of you to do, Chuchie," Carlos said to me.

I giggle as I wrapped my arms around his neck. "I'm sorry."

Carlos chuckles softly .

We didn't know that Logan, Kendall and James was watching us with amuse smiles but soft smiles that me and Carlos were falling in love with each other slowly.

Kendall went to grab some drinks for us as we went to get floaties. Me and Carlos share a floaty that can fit both of us and James and Logan grab their own and floated in the pool. After Kendall got our drinks he places them down and he gets in the water and grab a floaty and grab the drinks and floats with the drinks and we went by him and we grab our drinks.

We were all slurping our drinks while floating.

"Once you've sipped from a real coconut, there's no goin' back," Ken said as he was sipping his coconut while floating in a floaty.

"So true," Logan, Carlos and James chorused.

I hid my face in Carlos chest and giggles. I felt Carlos chest vibrate because he was laughing too.

"Hey, storm has his own floaty too," James said.

We look and laugh softly when we saw storm in a floaty too.

"He wants to relax to in the water too," Carlos said with smile while placing an arm around my waist.

We smile as Storm barks agreeing with Carlos which made us laugh again.

I'm happy that the other boys came with Ken because they were good at singing. I thought with a smile.
