"Cool," Camille comments, looking at the picture of Big Time Rush in Pop Tiger Magazine. "You got your picture in Pop Tiger Magazine," She glances at Andi who stood next to her and then looks at the four boys who each had either a lot of bruises or something broken. "But what happened?"

"A lot." Andi replied. Andi was the only one out of the band that didn't have anything broken or bruised which surprised her. She thought she would at least have something bruised by the end of the day. She was glad that she was able to leave without any injuries.

"You guys look terrible." Camille bluntly said after looking at the boys.

"Cool," Camille comments, looking at the picture of Big Time Rush in Pop Tiger Magazine. "You got your picture in Pop Tiger Magazine," She glances at Andi who stood next to her and then looks at the four boys who each had either a lot of bruises or something broken. "But what happened?"

"A lot." Andi replied with a heavy sigh. Andi was the only one out of the band that didn't have anything broken or bruised which surprised her. She thought she would at least have something bruised by the end of the day.

"What happened? That picture happened!" James exclaimed, angrily pointing at the picture with the other three.

"Camille," Kendall said. "Get ready for a twisted tale of adventure, danger, and nail-biting suspense." A look of disgust forms on Andi's face when he spits out a tooth. Kendall's eyebrows raises at seeing the tooth on his hand. "Hey, my tooth came out."

"No, wait. That's mine." Carlos took the tooth and put it back in his mouth, causing the others to look at him with disgust.

"So, we were enjoying a calm afternoon in the crib." Kendall started to explain.

*FLASHBACK*

Andi follows her mom into the boys' apartment, not surprised to see them playing hockey. She takes the air horn her mom had brought just in case if they needed it for a situation like this and she blares it. She stopped it and smiled when she got the boys immediately stopped playing and stood by each other at hearing the loud sound. Andi rolled her eyes when Carlos shoved Logan to the side randomly and had a smug smile on his face.

"Get your helmets off and your smiles on." Kelly tells the boys. Logan gets off the floor and hits Carlos' shoulder. "Gustavo pulled some strings, and if we hurry, you can make the next Pop Tiger hot-new-star pinup fold-out special Spring poster issue."

Andi chuckles a bit, mumbling under her breath, "Try saying that five times fast."

The boys look at Kelly with confusion. "Kelly, in English, please." Kendall said to her.

Kelly rolls her eyes. "It's picture day! Move it!"

****

Once the boys got their hockey gear off everyone got in the limo and goes to Rocque Records. "I can't believe we're gonna be in Pop Tiger." James smiled.

Carlos nods in agreement. "I know, it's totally awesome! What's a Pop Tiger?"

From her place between her mom and James, Andi chuckles lightly. "Pop Tiger is a popular magazine mostly only teens and some young adults get."

"Yes," James points at her. "Exactly." He then pulled out a Pop Tiger magazine from his pocket, showing it to Carlos.

Logan glances at him weirdly. "Is that Katie's? Please tell me that's Katie's."

"Yeah, it'd be a little weird if it wasn't Katie's." Andi admitted, looking over at James with a look. 

James looks at them with offense. "Hey, this magazine has great articles for guys too, like 'Omg, I I'm'd the wrong BFF'."

Kendall raises his eyebrows as he read the title of an article. "'What one thing would hottie hunk Zak Zevon bring to a desert Island?'" He then sarcastically comments, "I gotta say, I'm curious." He opens the magazine to the page that article is on to find out the answer. "His dog Snowball!"

Andi chuckled, shaking her head. She was never really one for celebrity gossip, but she didn't mind the occasional magazine here and there. Though it was a big deal for the boys to be able to get a photo shoot with the magazine since they were an up and coming band.

"What?" Carlos takes the magazine from Kendall. "What an idiot. Everyone know you bring a Roller Coaster!"

Andi furrows her eyebrows. "How would that even work?"

Logan shakes his head. "It wouldn't. And besides, you don't bring a roller coaster. You bring a flare gun to signal passing ships."

"Oh," Carlos scoffs. "You don't think people are gonna see my extreme looping coconut coaster?"

Logan points at him. "Your Island is stupid."

Carlos glares at him. "Your Island is boring!"

Logan glares back at him. "No, you're boring." The two then start fighting and so Andi pressed the air horn she still held onto to get the two to stop.

"Will you two please stop fighting? Honestly, sometimes you guys act like a bunch of kids." She chided the two boys. The two look down at their laps, mumbling apologies. She smiled and set the air horn on her lap, leaning back against her seat.

Kelly looks at Andi with a thankful smile when Carlos and Logan stop fighting. Andi smiles back at her. Kelly looks at the boys. "You guys need to stay pretty. This picture could end up on the walls of millions of girls."

The boys look at Kelly with wide eyes and each of them ask, "Did you say millions of girls?"

When they got to Rocque Records they immediately heard girls screaming. Andi looks out the window, rolling her eyes at seeing the fangirls of Dak Zevon running towards the limo. A few seconds later the group of fangirls leave and Andi guessed they found out where Dak really was.

"Woah, what was that?" Kendall questioned as each of them got out of the limo.

"That was a pack of screaming fangirls looking for Dak Zevon." Kelly answers, showing the boys a fold-out picture of Dak. "He's in the recording studio recording vocals for Varsity Vampire 2: Game On. Just one great picture in Pop Tiger and those girls will be screaming for Big Time Rush."

At hearing that the boys quickly run up the stairs to the door. Andi and Kelly follow them inside and Andi was surprised to see Jennifer, Kendall's and Katie's mom, and Katie standing in the hangout area. "Hey, what are you guys doing here?" Kendall asked his mom and little sister.

"What, I can't just come down to see my big brother, who I love?" Katie inquired.

Kendall puts a hand over his heart and smiles. Andi chuckles lightly, putting a hand on her hip as she looks at Katie. "Let me guess, you're here for Dak Zevon?"

Katie nods and smiles. "Yep. I just want him to autograph this picture for my wall."

"Really?" James chuckles. "I didn't think you were in to that kind of stuff."

Katie shrugs. "I'm a pre-teen girl." She smiles at the picture she shows them. "He's a cute pop star. I'm not made of stone, you know."

"Oh, yeah. Let me take a look at that." Logan steps forward, taking the magazine from Katie. He then puts the picture of Dak in front of his face and pretends to be him to tease Katie. "Look, I'm Dak Zevon, and I love you Katie Knight."

Andi's eyes grow wide when the group of fangirls run into the room screaming. Kendall grabs her arm, pulling her away from the group of fangirls when they were close to her. He didn't want her to get knocked down. Andi's heart skipped a beat as he pulled her to his side, wrapping a protective arm around her waist. She blushed a little and sent him a thankful look, which he returned with a smile.

The girls tackle Logan to the ground, only to realize that he wasn't Dak. They get off of Logan and Andi and the boys quickly step to the side when the group of fangirls run down the hallway.

"Now, where's Dak recording?" Jennifer asked Kelly.

Kelly apologetically smiles. "Sorry. I'm not allowed to say."

Jennifer puts her hands on Katie's shoulders, turning Katie to face Kelly. "Oh, look into those eyes and say that."

Katie looks at Kelly with puppy dog eyes for a few seconds until Kelly finally caved. "Studio 'B' down the hall to the right. Just stop with those eyes." Kelly pleaded, taking a step back to stand beside her daughter.

That was when Andi realized she and Kendall still stood close to each other and his arm was still wrapped around her. It just felt so natural that she didn't even think about it until now. She looked at him and he blushed a bit when their eyes met. He quickly let her go and she stepped to the side as she crossed her arms, trying not to miss his warmth. Kendall had to admit he didn't want to pull away from her. He wanted to stay like that a bit longer, but he didn't want her to feel uncomfortable.

Andi watches Logan stand up with wide eyes, seeing that he had one arm had somehow got out of the armhole of his long sleeve shirt. After he calmed down he follows Carlos, James, and Kendall to the studio where they heard loud music.

Andi lets out a sigh, glancing over at her mom with narrowed eyes when she saw her mom looking at her with a smirk. "What? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I saw it." Kelly responds, referring to her and Kendall being close earlier. "You and Kendall, getting all touchy-feely. I saw it."

"There was no getting touchy-feely." Andi denies, feeling her face heat up. "He just didn't want me to get run over by a pack of fangirls."

"Uh-huh." Kelly says, raising an eyebrow. "Sure. If you say so."

Andi sends her a small glare. "Alright, fine. Maybe there was a little bit of getting touchy-feely," Andi admits reluctantly, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment as her heart raced. "But it was just a momentary thing. We were caught up in the chaos of the fangirl stampede, that's all."

Kelly chuckles softly, giving Andi a knowing look. "Sure, honey. Whatever you say."

Andi rolls her eyes playfully, but she couldn't shake off the warm feeling that lingered from being so close to Kendall. She couldn't deny that there was something special about their connection, something that made her heart flutter and her cheeks flush whenever he was near. It was a feeling that she hadn't felt before, and it was a feeling that she hoped would only grow stronger.

Andi follows her mom into the recording studio where it was set up as a photo shoot area. Bright lights lit up the room, a white back drop was set up, and there were fog machines and cameras. "This is so not like school picture day." Kendall noticed.

"Oh!" Marcos realizes that they were there and walks over to the group, holding his camera. He smiles at the boys. "Are you ready to rock my camera?"

"What?" The four boys questioned since they couldn't hear him over the loud music.

Marcos stops the music, throwing the remote off to the side before looking back at the boys. "That's better! So how are you guys doing?"

The boys start speaking at once, not really for sure what to say. Gustavo walks over to stand beside Marcos. "Boys, this is Marcos Del Posey, the best teen idol photographer on the planet.

"Some say photographer," Marcos smiles. "Some say magician. Mira. One camera." Andi blinks, leaning backwards a bit when he suddenly takes pictures of them. She didn't expect him to do that and the sudden bright light of the camera flash caught her off guard. "The boys quickly shake their heads and exclaim, "No!"

Marcos frowns. "Marcos invented the stuffy puppy shot."

"Yeah, no." Gustavo takes the stuffed puppy from him, throwing it to the side of the room. Gustavo looks at the boys. "What I want is a simple shot of the four best friends just chilling and being themselves."

Kendall smiles and points at Gustavo in a sign of agreement. "I totally agree."

Gustavo points back at him. "I totally don't care. Now get on the backdrop and look handsome."

The four boys go over to stand in front of the backdrop. Everything was going great until Carlos and Logan started arguing. Andi overheard something about Carlos bringing a fridge packed with ice cream to his island and Logan argued it wouldn't work. They started slap fighting each other in front of poor Kendall who leaned back with a grimaced and tried not to get accidentally hit. Andi grinned when she raised the air horn she still held and used it again. She had to admit she loved using the air horn. Carlos and Logan immediately stopped fighting and look over at er.

"I love this thing." Andi muttered to herself, a smirk forming on her face.

"Dogs, heel!" Gustavo tells the boys. "We need a great picture before the Pop Tiger Magazine gets here in two hours. And now look into the camera and think about something funny."

"You mean like that?" Kendall asked, gesturing to Marcos who was bent over looking into his bag right beside the fog machine and it looked like the fog was coming out of him. The boys start laughing at the scene, Carlos even wrapped his arms around James and Kendall while Kendall had a hand on Logan's shoulder. Andi honestly thought it looked like this could be a great picture.

"Take the picture now before something goes wrong!" Gustavo exclaimed.

Marcos glances at him with offense. "What could go wrong? I am Marcos!"

Kelly shakes her head. "Oh, you don't know these boys, so snap the picture now."

Marcos shrugs, gets up, and goes over to stand behind the camera. He was about to take the picture when someone shouts, "Freeze!"

Andi looks over along with the others, not expecting to see two police officers. "Gustavo Rocque, you failed to report to your court-ordered community service." The male officer said as they both walk over to take ahold of Gustavo's arms.

Gustavo looks at them with confusion. "Officers, I don't know what you're talking about."

"I'm talking destroying Matthew McConaughey's mailbox with..." The woman officer looks over at Kelly, letting go of Gustavo's arm to grab Kelly's arm. "Her."

Andi looks at her mom with wide eyes and scolds her. "Mom!"

Kelly panics, pointing at Gustavo. "He made me be the lookout!"

"I still can't believe you went along with it." Andi sighed. She hoped that her mom and Gustavo would be okay.

"Hey, I'm the victim here." Gustavo pointed out. "He plays the bongos 'till 3 in the morning!"

"Let's go." The male officer said, pushing Gustavo out of the studio.

"Wait, what?!" Andi watched with worry and shock as the officers push Kelly and Gustavo out of the studio.

Andi looks at the boys, sharing a panicked look with them before she looks at Marcos when he speaks. "Drama." Marcos got a remote out of his pocket, turning the music back on. Andi furrowed her eyebrows when he gets a stuffed puppy and she really hoped that this wouldn't go down hill, but she had a bad feeling that iA few minutes have past and Andi was quite surprised to see Griffin and two of his assistants walk into the room. "Great news, everyone. I'm in charge." Griffin announced and a confused expression forms on Andi's and the boys' faces.

Griffin walks over to stand beside Marcos, looking at the boys with a smile. "Now, let's get my big-time boys on the walls of teen girls everywhere."

Andi lets out a small sigh of relief and the boys go back into their positions they were in the first time they tried taking the picture. Marcos went to press the button to take the picture. "All I have to do is push this button and..."

"Wait." Griffin interrupts and Marcos stops. "This isn't bad, but...Change everything." Griffin smiles. "We need something bolder, something nobody's ever seen before."

****

Now the boys were dressed in Matadors outfits standing in front of a space themed backdrop. It was obvious that Andi and the boys were the only ones who were not happy with this idea, but no one seemed to care about that.

"Space Matadors." Griffin grinned, gesturing to the boys.

Marcos smiles. "I love it!"

"He's right." Logan pointed at Griffin.

"No one's ever seen this before." The four boys spoke in a monotone voice. would.

"This is really messed up." Carlos commented.

"Our first picture, and it's going to brand us forever as Space Matadors!" James angrily remarked.

Logan sighs. "This is not going to impress millions of girls. I would say six or seven max."

"Probably not even that." Andi voiced, sheepishly smiling at Logan when he sent her a small glare. She felt bad for the boys and wished there was some way she could help them out, but she wasn't sure how.

"Smile pretty, pretty." Marcos said to the boys, going to press the button to take the picture.

"Wait." Griffin stopped Marcos from taking the picture causing Marcos to let out a frustrated sigh while Andi and the boys let out sighs of relief.

"The teen girl inside me says something's missing." Griffin commented.

"Marcos knows what it is." Marcos left the room to grab something.

Andi looks back at the boys when she heard Carlos, James, and Logan say, "Kendall."

"Don't panic." Kendall tells them. He points at the door. "In three seconds, Gustavo will barge through that door and fix everything like he always does."

"One..."

"Two..."

Disappointment falls on Andi's and the boys' faces at seeing Marcos holding stuffed animals in his hands instead of seeing Gustavo. Marcos smiles. "Giant stuffy puppies for everyone."

"That's not Gustavo." Carlos states the obvious. "This is going very bad." Andi sighed and the boys nodded in agreement.

Marcos hands the boys each a stuffed puppy before going back to the camera. "Perfect." Griffin complimented. "This photo is now bold and cute and cuddly. Let's shoot it."

"Smile pretty, pretty." Marcos speaks to the boys who forces a smile at the camera.

"Okay." Kendall nods. "Now we panic."

**BACK TO PRESENT DAY**

"Okay, I get it." Camille now sat on a chair beside Andi who sat next to her. There were also even a few people who had come over to listen in on the story. "You guys didn't want to look like Space Matadors, but then what happened?"

"Top Teen photographer Marcos was about to take the picture when..."

**CONTINUATION OF FLASHBACK**

Marcos frustratingly waves his arms around for a second when Kendall speaks up. "Wait! We can't take this photo."

Andi furrows her eyebrows, wondering what he was going to say. Griffin looks at Kendall with confusion. "Why not?"

"Because it's not finished." Kendall replies. "I mean, sure, it's bold, and..."

"And cute and cuddly." James adds. "But we don't have, uh..."

"A snowmobile." Carlos randomly said and everyone looked at him with confusion.

"Sure." Kendall nods, going along with it. "With a snowmobile you're bold, cuddly, and dangerous."

Logan nods. "It's the pop pinup hat trick."

"The Space Matadors are right." Griffin agrees and then told his assistants to get him a snowmobile. Griffin looks at everyone. "Everyone take five for a snowmobile break!"

The boys throws the stuffed animals on the floor, rushing into Gustavo's office. Andi follows them, seeing that they took the hats off. The hats were awful as well with the whole outfit in her opinion. "We cannot let Griffin take this photo." Kendall speaks angrily. He points at Carlos, looking at him with a smile. "By the way, kudos on the snowmobile idea."

Kendall sits on the edge of the desk beside where James was standing while Carlos points back at Kendall. "Which is why I'm taking one with me on my desert island."

Andi went to sit on the edge on the other side of the desk as Logan slaps Carlos' shoulder. "A desert island has a tropical climate, professor."

"Will you just let me have fun on my desert island? It's mine!" Carlos complained.

"Well," James gets his lucky comb out of his pocket. "I'm taking my lucky comb."

Logan looks at him with furrowed eyebrows. "But you're alone. No one's gonna see your hair."

"Hey, I'm there." James pointed out and Andi rolled her eyes with a smile.

"Focus!" Kendall called out, causing his friends to nod in agreement and look at him.

"Right." They spoke in unison.

"We need to figure out a way to change the photo." Kendall continued.

"Yes, from cuddly space matadors to..." Logan looks around for an idea when he noticed a Pop Tiger magazine laying on a nearby couch with it open to a Dak Zevon picture." Something like this." He said, putting the picture in front of him. His friends all smile and nod in agreement.

"There he is!"

Carlos jumps on the couch as a group of fangirls ran into the room. Kendall had grabbed Andi's arm again to pull her close and out of the way of the stampede, wrapping his arms around her. Andi's heart fluttered and she couldn't deny that she enjoyed the feeling of being so close to him.

"It's not him." One of the girls realized and then all the fangirls ran out of the room, screaming.

Kendall reluctantly pulls away from Andi to get up and close the door quickly as the fangirls left. "Okay, let's put this photo away before someone gets killed." He decided, picking up the photo of Dak Zevon in the magazine. Andi hated how much she missed his touch, but she was glad he was there to help her out of the way of those fangirls.

Andi nods, looking at the boy who was still on the floor. "For Logan's safety."

"Now, where's Gustavo, 'cause he should be saving our photo!" James angrily exclaimed.

"Gustavo's probably not coming back for awhile." Andi sighed.

Kendall points at her in a sign of agreement as he nods before he looks at her and the others. "Which means we have to do this on our own."

"Ouchies." Logan groans from his spot on the floor and James reaches a hand down to help him up. When Logan gets up, Andi notices his jacket was on backwards. Logan looks down at himself with panic. "Is my head on backwards?"

"No, genius." Andi chuckles. "Only your jacket." Logan sighed with relief.

Grinning, Carlos puts his helmet on. "And we're in charge now." He looks at Kendall. "What do we do?"

"We're gonna take a secret photo and give that to the Pop Tiger messenger when he gets here." Kendall answered.

"James, you're in charge of wardrobe." Kendall points at James and James nods. "We need cooler clothes. No offense to Matadors. Logan, we need to get this room super bright like Marcos' lights." Kendall tells Logan. Logan nods, looking around the room until he notices two lamps behind him and picks them up. Kendall points at Carlos. "And Carlos, you're gonna break down any door that stands in our way."

"Great, but we still need a camera and a white backdrop." James reminded the group.

Andi grabs a nearby remote, pressing a button making a white backdrop fall behind where Carlos, James, and Logan are standing. She smiles. "Only need a camera. And I can probably try to get one of Marcos' cameras." She suggests, setting the remote down. "But we have to be quick."

Kendall smiles, nodding in approval. "Okay, great. Thanks."

"And when are we gonna do all of this?" Logan asked.

"We've got plenty of time." Kendall responds. "You know how long it's going to take for Griffin to find a snowmobile in L.A?"

All of a sudden the door opens causing Carlos, James, and Logan to quickly move over to where Andi and Kendall are sitting on the desk while they all screamed. Andi and Kendall had instinctively grabbed onto each other and both of their hearts were beating fast. Griffin is at the door on a snowmobile, revving the engine. "Look what daddy found. Now go let's take the picture."

****

Andi and the boys were back in the studio and now the boys were on the snowmobile. "My inner teen girl is so putting this picture on her wall." Griffin smiled.

"Yeah, I would not." Andi muttered under her breath. She would not put this picture up on her wall and she's sure no other teen girl would either. This wasn't a good idea. The boys didn't want this. Andi felt bad for them, but what could she do to help? She couldn't exactly stop them. They just had to wait for the right moment when they can take the secret photo.

"My inner teen girl says we need..." Marcos grabs another stuffed puppy. "One more stuffy puppy."

Griffin looks at him. "Your inner teen girl is wrong."

Marcos shrugs, throwing the stuffed puppy over his shoulders and goes to take the picture. "Wait!" Kendall shouts. Marcos groans. "We need more fog."

"He's right." Marcos agrees with Kendall. "We need more fog."

James and Logan get up and start putting more fog in the room, but it got to the point where they all needed to leave the room to breathe. "That might have been too much fog." Marcos coughed.

"Alright, everyone. Fog break. Five minutes." Griffin told everyone and he and Marcos walks off.

Kendall points at Andi who shows the camera that she snuck out. "Secret photo time."

"Let's go! Let's go!"

Andi and the boys rush down the stairs to where the wardrobe room is at only to find that it was locked. They stood back as Carlos runs at the door, getting it to open.

"That was fun!" Carlos exclaimed after a loud crash is heard.

The other three boys rush into the room, closing the door behind them while Andi stayed out in the hallway, making sure that no one was coming by. A few seconds later Andi looks over when the door opens, furrowing her eyebrows at seeing that they looked nice from only the waist up. "I hope you guys know you still have those Matadors pants on."

"We know." James rolls his eyes. "We'll just shoot it from the waist up."

"Okay." Andi nods and gestures for them to get going. "Boys, let's go!"

Once they get back to Gustavo's office the boys put their Matadors jackets and hats out of the way. James closed the door while Logan set up the lamps and Andi got the camera ready.

"Alright, boys. Smile." Andi said once they stood in front of the white backdrop. Andi makes sure the picture will be from the waist u. When she was about to take the picture she saw a red light on the camera. She groans. "Got a problem."

"Problem?" Kendall furrows his eyebrows. "What problem?"

"Camera's dead." Andi sighed with annoyance. Of course this would happen.

The boys drop their heads in defeat after hearing that. The five of them look over at the door when they hear someone knocking. The boys quickly get their Matadors outfits on. The five teens stood in front of the camera and the light set up they made to hide it from Griffin.

"Hey, fellas. The fog's gone." Griffin informs them. "Let's take that picture."

The boys fake their excitement and the five teens follow Griffin and his assistants back to the studio.

"Alright, the Pop Tiger messenger is on it's way." Griffin spoke as the boys got back on the snowmobile with holding the stuffed puppies. "Now, let's take this picture."

"Wait!" This time Andi shouted along with the boys. They were getting desperate and didn't want the photo to be taken.

"No more waiting!" Marcos yelled, looking annoyed and frusturated.

Griffin gets his two assistants to go stand on either side of the picture set up area so the boys couldn't escape. "Now, smile pretty, pretty." Marcos smiled.

"Well, maybe girls will like Space Matadors on a star-mobile holding stuffy puppies." Carlos nervously smiles at his friends.

"They won't." James and Logan said to Carlos.

"Well, this'll never work." Kendall dropped the stuffed puppy, taking out the Pop Tiger magazine, brought the fan near him closer to him, and put the magazine in front of the fan.

The magazine gets blown over to Griffin and he exclaims, "I've been hit!"

"Oh my gosh, it's Dak Zevon!" Andi exclaimed, going along with Kendall's plan.

Andi quickly steps back when she hears the screams of fangirls, her eyes growing wide as they tackle Griffin to the floor and end up dragging Marcos to the floor. The boys threw the stuffed puppies to the floor and get off the snowmobile, moving to stand beside Andi. Andi quickly caught the camera when it was thrown into the air near her.

"I can't believe that actually worked." Logan smiled.

"Let's go, go, go!" Andi shouts urgently and gestures for the boys to go to the office, wanting to get this picture taken in time. While they get out to the hallway, the boys start to take off their Matadors outfits.

"Andi, dogs, what is going on here?" Gustavo questioned as he and Kelly rushed over to them, both wearing orange jumpsuits. Andi was confused about why they were wearing orange jumpsuits but she didn't say anything about it.

"Oh, we're saving our photo from Griffin." Kendall replied, gesturing to the studio.

Each of them look over when they see the messenger for Pop Tiger magazine drive in on a scooter. "Here to pick up a photo card for Pop Tiger Magazine."

Andi and the boys point at him, each of them speaking at the same time, "Coming right up."

Andi and the boys go to Gustavo's office and while the boys get their jackets off Andi makes sure that this camera she has is charged. Gustavo and Kelly walk in, looking around with confusion as Logan turn on the lamps that he had set up.

"'Kay, boys. Ready?" Andi asks after the boys got in their positions and had the clothes they picked out on. When they nod and smile at her, she returns the smile. "Smile pretty, pretty." She said in the same accent as Marcus did. She took the picture from the waist up and the boys let out a sigh of relief at hearing the click of the camera. The Puerto Rican girl got the memory card out of the camera and handed it to the Pop Tiger messenger with a polite smile.

"See you in Pop Tiger, boys." The messenger said to the boys before he left and the boys cheered, happy they finally got the photo they wanted.

They stop and turn to Gustavo when he speaks. "I don't know what happened here today, but maybe we should leave the dogs alone more often." He said as he shares a look with Kelly. "And I'll be more assured nothing bad will happen 'cause Andi will be with them and she's more responsible than the four of them put together." Andi grinned, pleased by the compliment from him since it was rare.

Everyone looks over at the vent in the wall when the gate is kicked off. Katie stands up with a wide smile on her face. "Hey, guys. Look who I found today." She pointed to her left as Dak Zevon stood beside her. Andi's eyes grow wide and her mouth formed into an 'o' shape. She wasn't expecting to see him and Katie. She thought it was sweet that Katie helped Dak out.

"I think she just saved my life." Dak chuckled lightly with a small smile, putting a hand on Katie's shoulder which caused the young girl to grin.

"That's Dak Zevon!" Katie shouted excitedly.

Andi and the boys quickly tell her to be quiet and at hearing the fangirl's screams, Katie pushed Dak down behind the desk so he was hidden. Andi quickly got out of the way, hiding behind her mom as the pack of screaming fangirls ran into the room and tackled the four boys.

**END OF FLASHBACK**

"Huh, who knew such a simple picture could bring you so close to death." Camille remarked.

James smiles. "But it was totally worth it."

Carlos nods. "'Cause we're gonna be on the wall of millions of girls."

"All over the country." Logan added.

Camille chuckles lightly. "Of course you are. 'Cause Dak Zevon is on the other side."

The four boys sit up, looking at her with wide eyes along with Andi. "What?!"

Camille turns the picture around, showing them the picture of Dak Zevon, and Andi and the boys groan.

Andi pouts, leaning back against the chair she sat on with crossed arms. "We did all of that work for nothing."
