Author's Note: I'M BACK! I know it's been a long time and I said I was going to upload this story by the end of the summer, but as you can see… that didn't work out. Anyway, here is the long awaited sequel to Life Is A Jungle Gym. If you haven't read that story, I would highly recommend doing so. If you don't, the story probably won't make that much sense. But if you have, and you've been waiting forever to read this, I apologize for taking forever.

Summary: Sequel to Life Is A Jungle Gym. Kayla Knight is looking forward to spending Christmas with her family, but when someone from her past shows up and divides her family, will she be able to balance gymnastics, her boyfriend, and her family?

Chapter one. A cold winter afternoon in London...

"Yes, I may meet a million pretty girls that know my name

But don't you worry

Cause you have my heart…"

Once again, I was listening to Worldwide by Big Time Rush. The song they had written for me. Last summer had been amazing. Especially the six days I got to spend with my brother, Kendall, my boyfriend, James, and my two best friends, Logan and Carlos. So much had happened in those six days… The rest of the summer, I had the time of my life at a summer camp for soon-to-be-elite gymnasts in London, where I go to boarding school. The decision to go to the camp was definitely worth it. Sure, I've had to work a lot harder and longer, but now I'm so much closer to my dream.

It's winter now in London. I haven't seen the guys since then and I miss them terribly.

James and I are still dating. I've been really busy with gymnastics, James has been really busy with Big Time Rush, and with the eight hour time difference it's been hard to keep up our relationship, but with web chats and phone calls we've been able to keep in touch.

I was staring at the picture frame the guys had given me before I left. Right on schedule, my web chat window blinked and, clicking on it, James's face filled the screen.

"Hey, Ladybug." James greeted smiling. From what I could tell, it looked like he was sitting at the kitchen counter in apartment 2J.

"Hey, James." I said. I was on my bed in my gymnastics sweatpants and a t-shirt, finishing up my homework. It was eight in the evening in London, while in LA it was about noon.

"How was your day?" He asked me.

"It was good. I just got back from practice. We learned new floor routines today."

"That's great." James got an excited look on his face. "Oh, guess what?"

"What?" I asked, cupping my chin in my hand.

"You have to guess." He told me, laughing.

"Umm… I have the best boyfriend ever?" He smiled.

"Well, yes, but that's not what I was going to say." He said, laughing. "We talked to Gustavo today, and for the last stop on the world tour, we're coming to London!" I was so excited.

"Seriously? You guys are coming to London?"

"Yeah, the concert is the twentieth of December and guess who has backstage passes..."

"Yes!" I calculated the days; It was in exactly one week. I was going to see James in person in a week! "That's the first day of break and the day after my meet. That's perfect."

"I know!" James said. He sounded really happy. "I can't wait to see you!"

I heard Kendall's voice in the background asking, "Is that Kayla?" James nodded and suddenly Kendall's face was taking up most of the screen. "Hey, Monkey!" He shouted.

I laughed. "You know that there are speakers so that I don't have to hear you from all the way in LA, right?"

"So, did you hear the good news?" Kendall asked, still taking up most of the screen.

"Yeah! I can't wait to see you guys!" I was so beyond excited. Something crashed in the background and both Kendall and James cringed.

"We better go." They both said at the same time.

"Alright, bye guys." I said laughing. As I closed my laptop my roommate and best friend here in London, Emma Huntington, came in.

"Who was that?" She asked. Emma was born in the states, but grew up all over the world. Her dad was the head of some huge internet company, so he travelled a lot. By looking at my face, she could tell that I had been on web chat, because it was around the normal time on Saturday night.

"James and Kendall." I told her, as I looked over at my monkey with the Big Time Rush T-shirt, which reminded me... "Oh, and guess what! Big Time Rush is ending their world tour with a concert in London!" I practically squealed the last part, I was so happy.

"OMG! No way! That is so awesome! We are def going to see them!" Emma was so excited. She had become obsessed with Big Time Rush ever since I brought her back the autographed picture. "Will I get to meet them? Do you get like backstage passes or something? Of course you do! What am I thinking. I mean Kendall is your brother and James is your boyfriend. I'm going to get to meet Big Time Rush!" Whenever Emma was excited she would start babbling. It was very entertaining.

When she was finished, she plopped down next to me on my bed. "So, I think we need to celebrate! We should go shopping tomorrow!" Emma's answer for everything was shopping. You're sad? Let's go shopping it will cheer you up! You're happy? Let's go shopping to celebrate. You're bored? Let's go shopping!

Emma is a gymnast too; we compete on the same team. Emma was a great gymnast, but she wasn't here on scholarship. Her parents were filthy rich and she got pretty much everything she wanted. Only problem was she hated that. She chose to compete in gymnastics because when she won, she felt like she had actually earned it.

"Yeah, we'll go shopping tomorrow." I agreed. I was so happy about seeing the guys I didn't care what we did.

"Do you have this in pink?" Emma asked the sales assistant at the small boutique in downtown London, the next day. This was her favorite store, so we always stopped by and bought at least one thing. "Oh!" She suddenly squealed. "You have to buy this! It looks so good on you!" Emma held up a sparkly diamond bracelet. I put it on my wrist, then turned over the price tag. Way out of my price range. Just like pretty much everything else in that boutique. Anyway, it wasn't my style. I was definitely not into sparkles, except for makeup for meets.

"I don't think so." I told her as I gently placed it back on the counter. I reached in my pocket to check my cell for the time, but I realized, sadly, that I had left it in the dorm. Emma would shop all day if she could. With the shopping and the looming BTR concert, I couldn't help but think that it was going to be a long day.

After the boutique, Emma and I decided to walk around. The sky was cloudy and the snow on the ground had turned gray. I zipped my blue North Face jacket up to my neck to escape the chill. I looked over at Emma. She was wearing a cream colored pea coat, dark skinny jeans, and Ugg boots. In her hands were multiple shopping bags from the various stores we had been to.

"So," Emma started, "what are you doing for winter break?"

"I'm going back to LA with the guys to spend the holidays with my family. What about you?"

"I think Daddy is going to be in Tokyo." Emma said, then reconsidered. "Or Moscow. But my mom is going to be at our cabin in the Alps, so I think that's where I'll be spending most of the break. " By 'cabin' she meant mansion. The Huntington's owned about five different houses around the world. Each one bigger then the next. Mr. Huntington travelled a lot and earned a ton of money, so having a house in the countries he visited for work just made sense. Emma continued, "Hopefully there will be some cute guys at the lodge." She continued on about skiing and sitting by the fireplace. It reminded me of winters in Minnesota; always freezing cold.

"Look! Big Time Rush is on the cover of that magazine!" Emma pointed to a bright pink teen magazine with the words "Big Time Rush" on it. We were too far away from the magazine stand to tell what the article was about, but when ever we see news about Big Time Rush, we get excited and have to read it.

Suddenly, Emma stopped walking toward the magazine stand and said, "You know what? Who cares what that article says. We're going to see them in person in about a week, right?" She put her arm around my shoulder and started steering me in the opposite direction, away from the magazine stand. "Those gossip magazines are just filled with false information anyway." Emma continued. "Why bother reading them when we know the truth?" Another thing about Emma: She babbles when she's nervous, too.

I could tell she was purposefully trying to get me away from the magazine stand. "Emma, what's going on?" I asked laughing. I turned around and headed back to the magazine stand. Emma tried to stop me, but I was stronger, so she ended up following me.

When we finally reached the magazine stand, I understood why Emma had tried to keep me from seeing the magazine.

On the cover was a picture of James, my James, kissing another girl.
