Dear Diary,

My name is Dana Marie Cruz. I'm 15. I used to live in Hawaii. Now I am going to Pacific Coast Academy in California. I just got here today. I have been waiting for this all summer. When I got here I went to the Freshmen Orientation. I got my room and roommates. I'm in room 101 and my roommates are Zoey Brooks and Nicole Bristow. Zoey likes this boy Chase Matthews I can tell. Zoey seems like a stuck-up cheerleader type**(A/N No offense to cheerleaders)**. Nicole is like a serious blabber mouth. We had twenty minute classes today and she talked like the whole time. The one teacher actually yelled at her for it. Mr. Bender, our media teacher, asked her to let us know when she ran out of air. She never did. As for Chase, I can tell he likes Zoey too. He seems like the shy type though. Then the other boy Michael Barrett, Nicole like stared at him. He likes someone else though. And the last person in out group, Logan Reese. He's an ego-maniac. He had VERY high confidence and might I say he's hot. And yes I can say that about my boyfriend. That's right I'm dating Logan Reese. It helps that he lives next to me in Hawaii. We been dating since we were nine, that's six years! My friends back home don't think we'll make it. I think we will. Logan talks about marring me and having kids and stuff but I just laugh. It's weird though because when I laugh he looks disappointed but then trys to laugh it off. More about me now. I have carmel curls, brown eyes, and a tan complextion. I love sports and I'm good at them. I also have an attitude problem. I guess I'll go now. Oh I almost forgot, most couples break-up on and off right? Well not me and Logan. We have been dating for six years straight, no break-ups. That's awsome, just don't tell him. Don't need his ego any bigger. Haha.

_Dear Diary,_

_My name is Zoey Marissa Brooks.I'm 15. I used to live in Louisiana. Now I'm at PCA in California, FINALLY! I got my roommates already. Nicole Bristow talks sooo much, and the other girl Dana Cruz has a bad attitude. She has a boyfriend, Logan Reese who has ego problems. Well, I have long blonde hair and blue eyes. I kinda sorta have a crush on Chase Matthews. But only kinda. I want him to like me too. Well, I'm going to dinner with Nicole._

_Dear Diary,_

_My name is Nicole Danielle Bristow and I'm 15. I normally live in Kansas but I'm at PCA now. YAY ME! My roommates are Zoey Brooks, who is way cool, and Dana Cruz, who is kinda mean. Zoey has no boyfriend like me, but Dana has one. His name is Logan Reese and he is a ego maniac. I like Michael Barrett, and I think Zoey likes Chase Matthews. I have middle-back lenght brown hair and blue eyes. I am a hyper person. Dana calls me hyperly-active. I don't know what that means. Well, going to dinner with Zoey. Luv, Nicole._

**A/N: It's short I know but I needed to start out on the first day. Next chapter will probably be like a week later or something...i'll say at the top of the chapter. Review please!**

Bad Girl+Bad BoyBig Problem

Disclaimer: See chapter 1

A/N: Ok here's chapter 2. I have like a lot of ideas right now, so I'll probably have updates everyday at the least. I hope you are liking this so far. I know the first chappie was kinda boring but I had no other way to start it. Read&Review!

**Friday(first week):**

Dear Diary,

It's been like a whole week since I wrote, I know. But I've been busy with my first week of classes. Anyways, I have been keeping a big secret from everyone. Even Logan. So that should tell you it's big. I never keep things from him, until now. The only reason I haven't told him is because I think he'll be mad. I don't want him to break-up with me for it. So I guess you want to know my secret right? Well it's that I'm pregnant. And Logan is the dad, thank god. It's September now, so that makes me two months pregnant. Well I guess I should explain. In July I went to Logan's house to sleepover because my parents were going out for their anniversary. Well, Logan's parents were out shooting a movie somewhere and Logan and I kinda fooled around a little. Ok we got farther than a little. If we hadn't I wouldn't be pregnant. I know I have to tell Logan sometime before I get fat. I hope he's not mad. Gotta go to class now.

_Dear Diary,_

_It's me Zoey again. Let's cut to it. Dana has been acting funny. She always says her stomach is hurting and she eats alot. And now all of a sudden, she's been getting morning sickness. I think I know what's going on. But the weird thing is, I don't think Logan does. He just acts normal. I think Dana is pregnant. But if she is, she doesn't act like it. And I doubt she told Logan or wants him to know. Well, I guess I better get to class now._

Dear Diary,

My name is Logan Reese. I'm 15 and am at PCA again. I have a very pretty girlfriend, Dana Cruz. She's been acting funny but I know if something was wrong she'd tell me. At least I think. Well gotta go to class.

**Sunday:**

Dear Diary,

It's me Dana. I'm so sad. No I didn't lose the baby. But I did lose it's father. I got up the guts to tell him when we were on the lounge couch watching a movie. He just looked at me dumbly. So I repeated myself. He just looked at me, then stood up, said "We're over" and left. He acts like it's my fault. It's only partly my fault. But it's his kid too. I just went to his dorm and slipped a handwritten(he loves my handwriting) under his door. Here's what it said:

-Logan

Listen, you can't blame me for ALL of what happened. It was partly your fault too. It's not like I forced you. I really like you Logan, if I didn't would I have done that...NO! Please Logan please forgive me. If you want to talk to me(which I hope you do) meet me at the beach at 6 tonight. I want to tell you something. -Dana

That's what it said. I hope he shows up. I'll write more later.

**A/N: Ohhh! Will Logan show up? Will he forgive Dana if he does? Why did he dump her in the first place? Or does he even get the note? Read on and find out! Review Please!**

Chapter 3

Yelling makes everyone mad!

A/N: Ok, it's NOT diary entries anymore. I'm sorry if you liked them, but it's hard for me to write that way. Read and Review!

Disclaimer: See Chaper 1!

**Sunday Night:**

Dana Cruz was walking to the beach. She hadn't told anyone about "it" yet, except Logan. She was thinking about what she wanted to say to him. When she got to the beach she sat down in the sand. After a few minutes she layed back and looked at the clouds. She didn't notice a person come up behind her until they put their head over her face. She jumped and sat up.

"Logan...you came."

"Yea. Listen..."

"No you listen to me for once. I'm sorry I'm pregnant okay? You think I want to be pregnant at fifteen? Fifteen Logan. What were we thinking? Well I know what I was thinking. I was thinking that I love you. And you broke up with me for something I can't control. People say "things happen for a reason" Well maybe the reason for this is to see how strong our relationship really is." Dana said with tears running down her face.

"Dana. Don't cry. I'm sorry for acting like it was your fault." Logan said as he reached out to her.

"No! Don't touch me! And I'm glad you're sorry. Because it's not all MY FAULT!" Dana screamed as she got up and ran toward the water.

"Dana!"

"What? What do you want Logan?"

"Dana...I" Logan mumbled trying to find the right words.

"No, I didn't even get to say what I came here to say. Now listen to me. Logan, you have no idea how much it hurt to hear you say "We're over' It hurt alot. I knew you'd be mad. I wanted you to be happy, Logan. Happy. I came here to tell you that..." Her voice dropped to a whisper, "If it would make you want to go out with me again, I'll have an abortion. Even though I think that's mean. I'd do it for you. For us." She breathed a sigh of relief as she plopped down on the sand.

"Are you finished exploding? Because I don't want to get yelled at for talking." Logan said as he to sat down.

"Yea. I'm done."

"That's good. Now, I have two things to say. Actually make that three. One, I know it wasn't your fault. Two, I can't believe you would go against what you believe in for our relationship. And three, you could of avoided all that yelling by listening to me in the first place. I was going to say that it was stupid for me to be mad. I was really just scared. I thought you'd be mad at me. I just needed time to think. Dana look at me."

Dana looked up slowly. Logan smiled at her. The smile only she had seen. Dana smiled back. It made her feel better knowing Logan felt scared too.

"Dana, I don't think I've told you this since that day in July. But I love you. And when you have the baby I'll still love you. I want this to work out. Us to work out. I want to prove Zoey, Chase, Michael, Nicole, Quinn, our friends in Hawaii, and everyone else who thinks we won't make it wrong. Will you be my girlfriend again?" Logan asked.

"Wow that was really deep Logan."

"Is that a yes?"

Dana leaned up and kissed him. She couldn't help it. It felt so right. He kissed her back and they just kissed until they had to have air. They pulled away and looked in each other's eyes. Dana's arms were around Logan's neck and his arms were around her waist.

"Does that answer you question?" Dana whispered in his ear.

"You bet." Logan replied as he and Dana got up and walked away, hand in hand.

The End!

**A/N: Ok so that was kinda fluffy and short. I'll make a sequel if you want. It would more than likely have the baby in it. So 7 months later. Let me know. I'm working on a oneshot DL and chapter like 6 of Kids act like Parents. I have no ideas for Contest to Controversy so if you have some let me know. REVIEW!!!!**

1. Chapter 1

YAY I'm back in school so i have my inspiration back. Ok This is a two part song fict. The first part is gonna be the lyrics. They WERE changed a little bit. Just to fit the story. The second is the story part to go along with the lyrics. I hope both will be up today. I was listening to this song while watching the ending to the newest Zoey 101 so here is my version of the next part after Zoey sees Chase and his Gf. Man don't you wish it was Sunday jst to see what happens. Also I have NO clue what the girlfriend name is so if it is wrong then tell me and i will change it.

Discliamer: I dont own most of the song that would be Academy Is (Good Band) and I do not own any of Zoey 101.

My eyes can't believe what they have seen.
In the corner of your room you've stockpiled millions of my hopes and dreams.
Oh Lola, Lola, I must have gotten this love sick somehow.
I'm going to ask you a series of questions,
And I want them answered on the spot, right now.
Is it serious?
I'm afraid it is.
Am I gonna cry?
Well Zoe, rejection is gonna catch up to all one day,
But yours is coming quicker than ours, than ours.

Some things I may have taken for granted again and again,
well here's what was said then

Hold your head high heavy heart.
So take a chance and make it big,
Cause it's the last you'll ever get.
If we don't take it, when will we make it?
I make plans to break plans,
And I've been planning something big, planning something big, planning.

I've never tried to make the best of my time,
When I thought that I had plenty of it.
Is this serious?
I don't know what to think.
Is it all a lie?
Well one thing is for sure
I'm taken back to the glory days
When we were kids without a brash or bitter thing to say.

Now my life is one big make it, or break it.

Hold your head high heavy heart
Save your strength for the morning after.
So take a chance and make it big,
Cause it's the last you'll ever get.
If we don't take it, when will we make it?
I make plans to break plans,
And I've been planning something big, planning something big
So take a chance and make it big,
Cause it's the last you'll ever get.
If we don't take it, when will we make it?
I make plans to break plans,
And I've been planning something big, planning something big, planning.

	2. Chapter 2

Ok here is the story part of the song fict. Sry for any typos. I don't have spell checker and often I miss them as I proofread.

Zoeys POV (point of view)

I opened the door to Chase's room. "Chase I need to..." She started before she saw the sight in front of her.

_My eyes can't believe what they have seen.
In the corner of your room you've stockpiled millions of my hopes and dreams._

"Zoey, This is Rebecca...my girlfriend" Chase said awkwardly. "Pleasure to meet you" I said twise as awkward as Chase did, then I walked out and back to my dorm.

"Oh Lola, Lola, I must have gotten this love sick somehow. I'm going to ask you a series of questions, And I want them answered on the spot, right now." I said half ranting about what I just seen and half tring to find out what she knows about this girl.
"Is it serious?" I said
"I'm afraid it is." Lola said looking depressed, possibly she still liked him?
"Am I gonna cry?"
''Well Zoe, rejection is gonna catch up to all one day, But yours is coming quicker than ours, than ours."

Some things I may have taken for granted again and again, well here's what was said then.

_Hold your head high heavy heart.
So take a chance and make it big,
Cause it's the last you'll ever get.
If we don't take it, when will we make it?
I make plans to break plans,
And I've been planning something big, planning something big, planning._

Chase's POV_
_
_I've never tried to make the best of my time,
When I thought that I had plenty of it._

Chase thought as he sat on his bed later that night. Soon after Zoey left Rebecca left me only with my thoughts. Over the summer I desided that my crush on Zoey was pointless. Every time i had a chance to tell her I loved her she walked away or someone came into the room. So I found a another girl. Rebecca. I never wanted Zoey to find out the way she did though. I've never tried to make the best of my time, When I thought that I had plenty of it. Is this serious? I don't know what to think. Is it all a lie? Well one thing is for sure I'm taken back to the glory days When we were kids without a brash or bitter thing to say. Now my life is one big make it, or break it. I'm gonna do it I'm gonna tell her I love her. Hold your head high heavy heart Save your strength for the morning after. So take a chance and make it big, Cause it's the last you'll ever get. If we don't take it, when will we make it? I make plans to break plans, And I've been planning something big, planning something big So take a chance and make it big, Cause it's the last you'll ever get. If we don't take it, when will we make it? I make plans to break plans, And I've been planning something big, planning something big, planning.

HAHAHA End, yup s tradition you'll never find out if he tell her or not. Sry chases part was weak I couldnt get in to his POV easly.

The Phrase That Pays by DarkAngelSuicide


1. Missing You

_"Please welcome to the stage,_ **_Ms. Dana Cruz_**"

_The booming, cheery voice echoed through the crowd. A fourteen year old latina took the stage. All dressed in black. Her beautiful eyes showed the sadness that she always tried to hide. She scooped up the excess of her dress and sat down at the beautiful grand black piano infront of her. The band was behind the curtain, waiting, anticipating. Finally, after taking a deep calming breath she started, and so did the band._

**_"What did i do to deserve this,
I didn't even get one last kiss,
From you, Oh baby,
God took your love from me,
He needed an angel so it seems,
I need to feel your hands all over me,
I need to feel you kissing me,
I need to feel you holding me,
I need to feel your touch,
'Cos i miss you're love so much,
And I can't keep on living this way,
I need you here with me,
Why did he take you away, from me, It's hard for me to tell you I love you,
As I'm standing over your grave,
And i know I'll never hear your voice again,
Why did you leave me,
Why couldn't you just stay,
Because my world is nothing without you,
Now I don't know what to do, With myself,_**

**_I would've given you anything,
Just to make you happy,
Just to hear you say that you love me, One last time,
I'd go to hell and back over and over again,
Just to prove to you how much I need you here,
There is nothing that I wouldn't do,
I'd cry for you, I'd lie for you,
And there's no doubt that if I could take your place in heaven,
I would die for you, Yes I would,
I would rather give up my life
Then I'd see tears in your eyes,
I can't stand to see you cry... 'Cos it's hard for me to tell you I love you,
As I'm standing over your grave,
And i know I'll never hear your voice again,
Why did you leave me,
Why couldn't you just stay babe,
Because my world is nothing without you,
And now I don't know what to do, With myself,_**

**_I just don't know what to do with myself,
I can't stand looking at those pictures on my shelf,
Knowing it was just one week ago,
Stood there and took that picture,
There's just one thing that I wanna know,
Why would God wanna hurt me so bad,
Does he know how much it hurts to be missing you,
Baby I'm missing you, Baby I'm missing you,
I love you, God damn it I love you,
Why did he take you away, From me,
Because I love you so,
I miss you so much baby,
I just can't go on baby"_**

_A tear cascaded down her cheek. The dark curls she usually straightened, bounced as she wept. The crowd felt her pain. The boy she was singing for, had died only weeks before. They had the most unusal, lively and loving relationship anyone could of ever dreamed of._

_**"Sing it again"** A girl cried out. **"Sing it"**_

_Dana looked up from her solitude and nodded. Once again her fingered grazed the piano. She started singing._

_**"What did i do to deserve this,
I didn't even get one last kiss,
From you, Oh baby,
God took your love from me,
He needed an angel so it seems,
I need to feel your hands all over me,
I need to feel you kissing me,
I need to feel you holding me,
I need to feel your touch,
'Cos i miss you're love so much,
And I can't keep on living this way,
I need you here with me,
Why did he take you away, from me, "**_

_All of PCA was there to witness, and at first it started out slowly, but soon everyone stood up. And they started to sing._

**_"It's hard for me to tell you I love you,
As I'm standing over your grave,
And i know I'll never hear your voice again,
Why did you leave me,
Why couldn't you just stay,
Because my world is nothing without you,
Now I don't know what to do, With myself,"_**

_Still standing they stopped singing, letting Dana take the verse._

**_"I would've given you anything,
Just to make you happy,
Just to hear you say that you love me, One last time,
I'd go to hell and back over and over again,
Just to prove to you how much I need you here,
There is nothing that I wouldn't do,
I'd cry for you, I'd lie for you,
And there's no doubt that if I could take your place in heaven,
I would die for you, Yes I would,
I would rather give up my life
Then I'd see tears in your eyes,
I can't stand to see you cry... "_**

_Once again, they sang. Sounding very much like a gospel choir, singing for a lost soul._

**_"It's hard for me to tell you I love you,
As I'm standing over your grave,
And i know I'll never hear your voice again,
Why did you leave me,
Why couldn't you just stay,
Because my world is nothing without you,
Now I don't know what to do, With myself,"_**

_Dana look over, tears stained her porcelin skin._

**_"I just don't know what to do with myself,
I can't stand looking at those pictures on my shelf,
Knowing it was just one week ago,
Stood there and took that picture,
There's just one thing that I wanna know,
Why would God wanna hurt me so bad,
Does he know how much it hurts to be missing you,
Baby I'm missing you, Baby I'm missing you,
I love you, God damn it I love you,
Why did he take you away, From me,
Because I love you so,
I miss you so much baby,
I just can't go on baby"_**

_Instead of clapping when she finished, she head the fimiliar sound of weeping. Just like she, the crowd cried for the boy that died. Dana cried the most though, **it was she he saved**.** It was her** that put him in **danger**. **It was **her. **She was the reason he wasn't here anymore**. Right here,** on this campus**, he saved her life. Right here,** in this building,** he sacrificed his life. Right here. And **in her heart**, she knew he still loved her. **In her heart,** he left the everlasting imprint of this love. **In her heart**, she ached for him. And Right here, on this stage, **she cried**. Right here, **with everyone watching**, her mean exterior melted away. Right here, **with the heatache**, she stood infront of everyone. Right here, **the same stop he saved her**. Right here, with the same gun that cause his death, she said a goodbye. Right here, **tears in her eyes**, she pulled the trigger. Right here, **on this very** spot, her heart stopped beating._

_It was years from then when her friends and family stood over her grave, and stood over his. They long ago realized and recovered the note she left behind. Today. The day she died, they read it.Just like they had every year since then. With his grave next to hers, they places red roses on the stones. Scattered petals covered the graves. His grave, had his name, date of birth and **half a heart carved** into it. Beside the heart it was written **'This boy, Logan Reese, was a saviour, a lover and a friend. He was there for the people he loved, and died with the satisfaction that the girl he loved, was safe. What he didn't count on was how sad she was without him. Beside him, lays his love, together they are happy. Apart tears are the closest thing to a smile that you'd ever get. Together they live. And forever they'll smile in each others arms'**. Next to his grave was Dana's. Her name, date of birth and the other**half of the heart was carved into hers**, along with the words **'This girl, Dana Cruz, was a good friend, a sassy lady and a lover. She was always willing and ready to help a friend, she loved her family and she loves the boy beside her. Forever and eterity. She died with only him in her heart. She may have left alot behind, but nothnig could fill the whole in her heart where he belonged. Together they'll be happy. And far longer than forever, they'll love each other undeniably '.** In the middle of the half heart was a bullet, the exact bullet she implanted in her head. On the bullet in her hand writing, was his name._** 'LOGAN REESE'** _and a simple heart. Under that was a poem ' With this bullet, that i hold near, I write you name nice and neat, A heart to show my love and with a breath I pulled the trigger. But rest assured, I made sure, you were the last thing that passed throuh my mind, as i died.'_

Another old one =D.

**Oneshot

. . . . . . . . . .

"What's wrong?" Logan asked his friend, Quinn as he pulled up beside the bench she was sitting on with his mo-ped. Quinn shook her head, turning away from him and pushing her hair behind her ears. Logan got off of his motor scooter and sat next to her on the bench.

"Quinn," Logan whined, gripping her small hand in his and patting it reassuringly. She sniffled and stared at him. Logan bit hip lip and reached out to wipe the tears from her eyes, but she stopped him, wiping them away with her own hand and smudging the makeup she had taken hours to apply.

"Do you honestly care?" she asked in a stuffed-up and very hurt sounding tone. Logan squeezed the hand he held in his and nodded. She stared at him incredulously and he grimaced.

"I know I seem insensitive," he began, a few moments into their stare-down, "but I really care about you Quinn." Quinn swallowed hard and looked away from Logan.

"Mark broke up with me," she said with a sob. Logan moved closer to her and draped his arm over her shoulder, pulling her closer to him.

"What?" he asked slightly too loud and Quinn tensed next to him.

"Yeah," she replied after a few moments, feeling slightly uncomfortable about the comfort she was getting out of his slight embrace.

"Why?" he asked, leaning forward so that he could see her face.

"For Brooke," she muttered and Logan straightened slightly.

"Well," he began, "She is pretty cute..." Quinn pulled away from him and narrowed her eyes.

"Gee, thanks Logan," she growled, standing up and beginning to stomp off in the opposite direction.

"Quinn," Logan said, speeding after her and catching her by the arm, "wait."

"Why?" Quinn asked, refusing to look at him, "I can't compete with her." Logan sighed and pulled Quinn around to face him.

"You shouldn't have to," he said, gazing into her eyes. Quinn blinked.

"What?" She asked, slightly confused.

"If Mark wants Brooke then he can have her," Logan whispered, pressing his forehead against hers, "in my book, you're better."

"Logan," Quinn began, but he stopped her.

"I'm not finished," he said pressing a finger against her lips, "you might be a total spaz sometimes-"Quinn rolled her eyes-"But you're beautiful, and smart, and all the things Brooke isn't." Quinn bit her lip and stared into Logan's eyes. Logan smiled down at her before backing away slightly and retrieving her glasses from the bench she had been sitting on.

"Here," he said, placing them on her face, "now there's the Quinn I know." Quinn smiled at him as another sob escaped her lips and a tear rolled down her cheek. His expression softened and he reached out to wipe away her sadness. She leaned into his touch, eyes closing and her lips parting slightly.

"Logan," she whispered as he moved closer to her, tracing his fingertips along her neck as he pressed his lips against hers. Quinn breathed in deeply through her nose, gripping the front of Logan's shirt in her fists as she kissed him back.

"Faster!" A familiar voice screamed from beside them as they heard a horse gallop past. They jumped apart then and watched as Zoey and Micheal made their way towards one of the many school buildings on horseback.

"Wow," Quinn said, touching her lips and watching the two on the horse. Logan smiled to himself and stared at her.

"Weirdest day ever," he said, absently pushing a strand of hair out of her face.

"Uh huh," Quinn agreed, eyes still wide from the shock of the kiss.

. . . . . . . . . . .

"Where have you two been?" Zoey asked as Logan and Quinn approached the group later on that evening. Quinn shrugged.

"I've been in class," Logan answered, eying Quinn suspiciously.

"Uh huh," Micheal said as the two sat next to each other at the table. Quinn stared down at her food, a light blush forming across her cheeks as Logan slowly began eating.

"You okay Quinn?" Lola asked. Quinn just shrugged and stared at her plate. Lola and Zoey exchanged worried looks.

"How did it go with-"Zoey began, pausing for a moment to weigh Quinn's reaction-"Mark?" Quinn looked up and rolled her eyes.

"He's happy with Brooke," she muttered.

"You don't sound too happy about that," Logan said, looking at Quinn out of the corner of his eye.

"They deserve each other," she said spitefully before adding, "I'm better off without him."

"Can we change the subject please?" Micheal asked as James took a seat next to Zoey.

"Logan," James began as he sat down, "Becca was looking for you." Logan glanced up and nodded.

"What for?" Logan asked as he felt Quinn's gaze bore into him.

"Something about Norwegian shampoo," James replied. Logan merely shrugged and went back to eating.

"Okay," Zoey said, "What is wrong with you two?" Quinn shrugged.

"Nothing," Logan answered.

. . . . . . . . . . .

"I don't feel very hungry," Quinn said after awhile, grabbing her tray and dumping it in the nearest trashcan before stalking off in the direction of their dormitories.

The group watched her go for a few moments before Logan stood up and stretched, dumping his tray and heading in the opposite direction without even saying so much as good-night.

"Weird day," Lola said as they watched Logan stalk off in the opposite direction.

"Totally," Zoey agreed.

. . . . . . . . . . .

R&R even though it sucks!

Boys Don't Cry

Chapter One

Los Angeles was warm with a cool breeze blowing in from the sea. For Dana Cruz, the morning had been dragging on far too long. Around PCA, so many people saw her as angry, a tomboy, and hot-tempered. Shutting the water off, the teenager wrapped herself in a towel (which was pink, thanks to Nicole). Quickly brushing over her shining tasseled hair in front of the mirror, Dana walked out of the bathroom, then entered her dorm room. "Hey, Dana," Zoey greeted, looking away from her book.

Dana groaned, and sat down on her bed. "Ah, what happened to my clothes?" she yelled, growing angry.

"Nicole put 'em in the wash," Zoey answered. "You can borrow some of mine if you want."

"...Thanks," the light brunette replied. "Um...do you have any underwear in my size?"

"Sure," Zoey answered with a giggle. "Hope you don't mind Victoria's Secrets." Dana let out a defeated groan, and accepted the frilly pink bra her friend offered her. "Why would she do the wash today? She is really getting on my nerves lately."

"I can't believe you two still aren't getting along," the blond said. "But...she's doing that foreign exchange project...so we get Quinn back, and Nicole goes to Tibet for three months."

"Think she'll stay there?" Dana asked, slipping on the bra.

"Come on, you have to admit she's starting to grow on you," Zoey replied.

"Like a sist," the brunette added. "One less tramp in PCA."

"At least you and Quinn got along well," Zoey tried to lighten the mood.

"Except for all her crazy experiments," Dana retorted. "She's made me gain twenty pounds, turned me into a baby, and even made me into a ballerina for two days. I mean, what's with her, anyway?"

"She's just really into experiments, and doesn't have any way of testing them," the blond explained. "I think she looks up to you, though." Silence entered the room, and remained there for awhile.

"...Thanks for lending me the clothes," the brunette finally said.

"Any time," Zoey happily replied. "...Well, not the Victoria stuff...Hey, you wanna spend some time with Nicole?...She's only gonna be here two more days."

"No, thanks," Dana answered, picking up a book. "Tell her...'bye' for me, will yuh?"

"Sure," the blond agreed. "...Sure you don't wanna tell her yourself? It is three months." Dana didn't respond. Defeated, Zoey walked out to meet Nicole in the laundry room.

Meanwhile, Quinn sat in the tent she was given, listening to the thunderous winds rage through the frozen mountains. The protozoa she'd been testing her formulas on hadn't been responding. _If they find out I'm doing this, they'll kill me, _she thought, growing nervous.

"Hey...Quinn," asked a shy, hushed voice. The boy Quinn had been helping for the past two weeks entered the tent, clad in a heavy hooded jacket and ski goggles. "Any progress?"

"Not yet, Ned," the dark brunette answered, regret in her voice. "I'm sorry." The boy leaned against the wall, obviously too upset to be cordial.

"...It's okay," he said, withholding his emotions; Ned had gotten good at that. "Thank you."

"What do you mean?" Quinn asked. "I'm not done yet. I still have two more days...sorta."

"But I don't," Ned sorrowfully replied. "People are catching on...Thank you so much for...everything."

"Will we meet again?" Quinn asked, knowing she was acting like more than a friend, despite Ned's wishes.

"...Bye Quinn," a saddened Ned replied before departing.

"This is so stupid," Nicole giggled, looking at herself in the mirror.

"I know, but I won't see you for three months," Zoey replied, working her gel-coated hands through Nicole's long, straight hair. "And my parents never let me do this to Dustin."

"Shouldn't we have outgrown this kinda stuff by now?" the light brunette asked.

"Probably," Zoey giggled. "Oh, here...you need more blush." The blond dusted her friend's cheeks with the brush, giving her a lightly pouty look.

"Get my lips," Nicole said before puckering like a fish. Zoey laughed, then painted over her friend's lips with glossy red lipstick. "Thank you...I getta do your makeover next."

"...You're done," Zoey said. "Stand up." Nicole stood up, and looked at herself in the mirror. Seeing how rediculous and overly made-up she looked, Nicole threw her left hand into the air, letting the pink, plastic bracelet flop, and went into a superstar pose, her lips stuck outward.

"I look like such a dork," Nicole giggled.

"Miss Nicole Bistrow," Zoey announced. "Super Model of..."

"The freak capital of France," the brunette completed. "Oh, I am gonna get you so bad."

Dana remained in her room, reading over her book. She could never get why Zoey even got along with Nicole. They were complete opposites for the most part. The next day was more of the same; Zoey and Nicole talked while Dana stayed in her room. Christmas vacation was still in full swing, and hanging with Nicole was not going to ruin it for her.

Finally, the day of the takeoff arrived. As the sun set along the clouded crimson horizon, Zoey gave her oldest friend a hug, then big her farewell from herself and Dana.

"I'll miss you," Lola said, giving Nicole a brief hug. "Good luck with everything."

"Thanks, guys," Nicole replied. "I'm gonna miss you two so much."

"There's the plane," Zoey sadly announced. A large, shining silver plan flew in from the west, appearing as a giant shadow in the lighting. The wind blew in the teens' faces.

Once the plane had docked, Quinn walked down the steps. "Hey, Quinn!" the three called out, warmly greeting their friend.

"Hey guys," the dark brunette replied. "Oh, you're gonna love Tibet, Nicole."

"I know I will," the light brunette warmly replied. "Keep my part of the room in one piece, okay?"

"You know it," Quinn answered. "I won't touch your Pokemon comics." The two hugged, then parted. Zoey, Lola, and Quinn stepped back as Nicole walked up the platinum steps into the warm airplane. As her friends waved her off, Nicole returned the gesture, then walked back to the left side of the plane, taking a window seat next to an empty chair. Looking out the small, circular window, Nicole took in the sunset, then pulled out her iPod. It didn't take long for the plane to take off into the sky. _This is it,_ she thought. _No turning back now._ Finally, the airplane broke through the layer of clouds, practically entering geospace, and glided along in the scarlet atmosphere.

Dana walked out a little too late, and watched the shadow of the plane disappear in the black-hued clouds. Maybe she wanted to say her goodbyes in person. Maybe she wanted to know Nicole would be out of her hair for real. Or maybe she just needed some air. Soon, the tomboy met up with Lola, Zoey, and Quinn. Lola was currently staying in a dorm with Stacey, so it would just be Zoey, Dana, and Quinn; just like junior year.

"Would you guys like to hear about my newest project?" Quinn asked, excited as usual.

"Sure," Zoey replied. "Is it that super-hot formula you started?"

"No, but that is done," the dark brunette answered. "Care to test it out for me?"

"What's the new experiment, Quinn?" Dana interrupted.

"Okay, it's a natural alternative to performance-enhancing supplements," Quinn explained. "It increases the body's ability to produce adrenal glands, and a slight increase in testosterone."

"So we'd all wind up growing beards?" Lola asked.

"Only if you took too much," Quinn answered. "It's actually continuing on a failed project one of my friends started awhile back."

"Just keep it away from me," Dana replied, not sounding amuzed. "There's no way I'm shaving anything but my legs." The other three girls laughed. Finally, they arrived at Room 101. Lola was invited to spend the night, which she accepted.

"I'm going to leave my strength-enhancer on the bedside drawer," Quinn said, setting the vile of blue liquid on the counter top. "Zoey, Lola, would you like to test my Beautification Formula?"

"Sure," Lola said, taking Zoey's hand. "Let's rock." The three walked into the bathroom. Dana changed into her pajamas, layed down on her bed, and picked up her book. Reading at night was her favorite way to fall asleep; it relaxed her. "Natural strength enhancer," she said. "What a stupid idea."

Later that night, Quinn walked into the room. "I said I was sorry, you guys," she said, looking back at her friends. "It'll wear off in about two hours."

Zoey and Lola walked in, their lips swollen, their eye lids colored dark purple their hair big and poofy, and their stomachs pudged out in the center (similar to Ginger Fox at her revival show). "Whatever," an exasperated Zoey replied, obviously unhappy.

"Hope no one saw us," Lola said, getting into her sleeping bag. "We look horrible."

Dana snickered at the two, then continued reading her book. "Sure you don't wanna try?" Zoey jokingly asked. "Might help give you that pouty look you're always going for." Giving a disgusted look, the curly brunette went back to her book.

At about ten thirty, the lights were turned off. However, Quinn decided to move her formula into a more secure container. Luckily, there was a bottle of blue PowerAid on the bedside counter. Thinking it empty, Quinn took off its lid, and cautiously poured the vile into it before tightly putting on the lid. "Another day, another unhappy result," she whispered, walking back to her bed.

Dana woke up, feeling groggy and sore in her joints. _Hope I still have some PowerAid left, _she thought. _If not, I'll be really ticked._ Knowing how early it was, Dana just felt around for her drink, picked it up, and gulped it down. "Ah," she silently exclaimed, feeling refreshed. "Hmm...I feel better already." The girl headed towards the bathroom to take a shower.

Come six o'clock, the room was lighting up with the sunrise. Quinn, as usual, was wide awake and ready to start some experimenting. Taking a quick glance at her roommates, she could see her failed "super-hot" formula had worn off. _Wonder where Dana is, _she thought. _Oh, I forgot about my strength-enhancing...Oh no._ "Zoey, Lola!" she shrieked. "Wake up!"

"What?" asked Zoey, rubbing her puffy eyes.

"Do either of you know what happened to my vile of strength enhancer?" Quinn asked, getting worried. "I-I left on the counter last night."

Dana walked in, clad in Nicole's pink towel with her hair folded up into another pink towel. "Hey, guys," she greeted. "Looks like Nicole took my towels to Tibet. Too bad I hate pink."

"Dana, do you know where Quinn's strength goo is?" Lola asked.

"I don't know what happened to it," the dark brunette added. "I...oh, I poured it into a PowerAid bottle."

Dana froze cold. "Not the bottle I had on the counter, was it?" she asked, her heart pounding.

"...I'm afraid so," Quinn confessed. "How much did you drink?"

"The whole thing!" Dana shrieked. "But I couldn't taste anything weird in it."

"...Oh my gosh," the dark brunette replied. "There must have still been PowerAid in the bottle, and the two fused. Quick, let me see the ingredients of the drink." Zoey pulled out another bottle from the mini fridge, and handed it to Quinn. "...This is not good...The chemicals utilized in PowerAid are designed to completely rehydrate the body and give energy."

"Yeah, so?" Dana asked, worried.

"The strength enhancer could very well effect your entire body," Quinn answered, her voice grave.

Losing her composure, Dana pulled the towel outward, and looked down at her breasts.

"What are you doing?" Zoey asked.

"Oh...I don't feel good," Dana said, losing her concentration. "Man...I need to shave off my arms." The girls looked at the shining brunette's arms, which were now coated with dark, somewhat thick hair.

"This is not good," Lola exclaimed.

"Oh, I think I'm gonna..." Dana began before charging into the girl's room.

"Hopefully, she'll just vomit out the formula," Quinn said. "Otherwise, I'm afraid of what will happen."

"That stuff won't go lethal, will it?" Lola asked, her arms growing numb with fear.

"No," Quinn answered. "But it won't be favorable...especially not for a girl." Suddenly, the three heard a loud, high-pitched scream from the girl's room.

"Hey, whatter you doing in here?" another girl hollered, furious. "Get out! Sicko!" "Pervert!" another girl yelled.

Dana charged into the room. "Oh my gosh," the brunette said, terror in her voice. "I just...I pulled my pants down, and..."

"...Dana, is that you?" asked Zoey, baffeled.

"Yeah, what do you...Why is my voice so deep?" Dana asked, noticing her once-feminen, lightly sassy voice was now deeper and more masculine. "The hair on my arms...Oh my gosh."

"Um, Dana..." Lola said, nervous. "Your...boobs are gone."

"What?" Dana tried to shriek, though it came out a scream. Sure enough, her bosoms were nowhere to be seen. Throwing off her shirt, the young man saw lightly chisseled abdominal muscles; a mild Situation, a wider framed waist, and slightly muscular pectoral muscles. "Ah!" Dana yelled. Grabbing a mirror, the boy saw her hair was now short and in a sylish, lightly spiked mop-top style. However, it still maintained its shine and lighter highlights. Her once-dainty, pretty face was now handsome and well-sculpted. "I'm...I'm a guy!" he yelled.

"Oh my gosh," Zoey said, looking over her new...male roommate. "You look...hot."

"Shut up!" Dana yelled. "Quinn, I will kill you for this!"

"Y-you're still adjusting to your new hormones," Quinn explained. "Just try to calm down. Don't do something you'll regret."

"Yeah, you could punch a bag or something," Lola suggested, trying to cheer the boy up.

"Listen, I don't need this garbage from you guys," Dana snarled. "I...ugh! Turn me back! Now!"

"I'll get right on it," Quinn replied. "But in the meantime, you'd better find a way to fit in. We can get some clothes from Chase or Logan. You look...about their size."

"What should we call you?" Zoey asked. "How 'bout Dan? Daran?"

"...Dan," Dana decided. "Don't tell anyone what happened to me. Just...get the clothes." Throwing himself on the bean bag chair, Dan felt hot rage course through his muscular body. All he wanted to do was thrust his fist into something. "Do you have anything to eat?"

"There's some corn chips in the drawer," Zoey answered. "Help yourself, dude." Dan spit, then got the bag of salty chips.

"Hey, guys," called out a familiar voice.

"Nicole!" Lola shrieked, running out into the hallway.

"Don't forget my clothes!" a furious Dan yelled.

"Nicole, whatter you doing back?" Lola asked, giving her friend a hug.

"They said I didn't get the proper injection for some of the conditions I'd be exposed to," Nicole answered, somewhat let down. "So...I'm back." The brunette started to walk back into her room.

"Um, wait a minute!" Lola futilly tried to stop the girl.

"Whoa," Nicole said, seeing a muscular, shirtless boy sitting in her room, clad in somewhat tight black pants.

"Um,..." Dana began to say.

"Hey, this is Dan," Quinn said. "He's...my cousin. He just showed up last night after you left." Dana caught himself staring at Nicole; her hair, her curves, that voice.

"Nice to meet you," Nicole said.

"Yeah, you too," Dan replied, taken back. _She is so hot, _she thought, not understanding anything he was feeling. "I'll...catch you later?"

"Sure," a flattered Nicole replied before walking out.

"Got the clothes," Zoey said, walking in with some of Chase and Logan's old pants and shirts. "...What I miss?"

All eyes were on Dan, who just sat still, flustered and confused. There was certainly more to being a boy than Dana thought.

	2. Chapter 2

Boys Don't Cry

Chapter Two

Dan sat in front of a mirror, looking at his new self. Now clad in a gray, graphic t-shirt with a picture of a wolf face on it, the former teenage girl barely resembled his former self. Guys don't wear perfume; they use cologne and aftershave. They smelled strange, but this was how it had to be. Dana knew boys couldn't cry in public...but when they're alone, things are different. It hurts a little more to be alone; especially when the girl he wanted to be with so badly was her hated enemy.

A sad, defeated tear formed in Dana's eye. Girls' hormones cause their tears to slide all the way down their cheeks, but boys' stay in their eyes most of the time. Maybe that's so no one'll think they're weak for crying. _I don't want to be this, _Dan told himself, spiking back his hair.

"Hey, buddy," Zoey said, her voice peppy as ever as she walked in with a plate of soup and a sandwich. "Hungry yet?"

"Yeah," Dan answered. "Thanks."

"Hey, you're a growing boy," Zoey replied, handing her friend the tray. "Quinn's looking for a cure...How you taking it?"

"It sucks," Dan answered between bites of her hot grilled cheese. Feeling a burning in his chest, the boy belched. "Sorry...I didn't think it'd come out like that. Gross."

"It happens," the blond replied. "Um...can I ask you a question?"

"Guys don't give girls fashion tips," Dana bitterly answered, looking into her soup.

"Not that...it's about you and Nicole," Zoey continued, obviously nervous and uneasy. "Lola told me the way you two looked at each other..."

"Whatter you getting at?" Dan asked, growing defensive. "I'm not gay, Zoey."

"You're also not a girl anymore," Zoey retorted. "You don't think like a girl anymore. Just...is there something going on?"

"...She looked good for a second, that's all," Dana answered, somewhat angry. "I still hate her." _That is such a lie, _Dana thought while dipping her sandwich into the soup. _I really want her._ "What's it matter? I'm gonna be back to normal soon enough. Besides, that's just creepy."

"Well, she wouldn't look good to you if you really hated her," the blond continued.

"You're really starting to tick me off," Dan said, standing up and clenching his fist. "Just get out." Not wanting to make the situation worse, Zoey gave up, and walked away. Dana sat back down, looking away from his reflection. This was all so confusing and infuriating. It was hard enough being a girl, but changing into a boy was far worse.

Meanwhile, Quinn was sitting in Lola's room, reading over some of her results. "Not good," she said, sounding skeptical.

"What?" asked Lola, growing upset.

"I'm having trouble finding a way to reverse the hormonal change," Quinn answered. "I thought it'd be similar to the accident that turned Dana into a ballerina, but it's not even close."

"That experiment altered her brain waves," Lola replied. "This is an entire bodily alteration...I guess an estrogen overdose wouldn't do the trick."

"...It might," Quinn said, giving new hope to the situation. "However, it would require an entirely new substance...and another bottle of PowerAid."

"Be right back," Lola said, running towards Room 101. There, she saw something shocking; Dan was currently standing in the middle of the room in his boxers.

"What are you doing?" Dana demanded, covering himself with a pair of pants.

"I-I was just getting a bottle of..." Lola stuttered, taken back by the sight of a half-naked, male version of her best friend. "Um..." The Puerta Rican girl grabbed the bottle, covered her eyes, gave a quick wave, then ran out.

Nicole walked into Lola's room, clad in a pink towel. "Hey, guys," she said, closing the door behind her. "Hey, where's Dan?"

"He's getting dressed," Lola said, fighting a blush. "Why? What's up?"

"I just wanted to invite him to a swim," Nicole declared, dropping her towel, and revealing a tiny pink bikini. "What do you think? Cute, huh?"

"Do you always have to act like a bimbo when there's a guy you like?" Zoey asked, sounding nasty.

"What?" Nicole asked, hurt.

"Zoey," Quinn said.

"You know how...wrong this whole thing is?" Zoey shot back. "Ah! Forget it!" With that, the blond girl stormed out of the room. Nicole, growing ashamed, put her towel back on, covering her revealing swimsuit.

"Lola, can you check on her, please?" Quinn asked, mixing together some chemicals. Lola nodded, then went after Zoey.

"What's wrong with her?" Nicole asked.

"It's really complicated," Quinn answered before looking over some slides.

"Hey, where's Dana?" the brunette asked. "I haven't seen her since I got back."

"...She's visiting some relatives," Quinn lied, not wanting to betray Dana's secret. "Anyway, I wouldn't get too attached to Dan."

"Too late," Nicole replied. "I'm crushing really bad on him...I know he feels the same way. I gotta go." The brunette ran out of the room.

"Nicole, wait!" Quinn shrieked, knowing it was useless.

The brunette knocked on the door of Room 101. "Dan? Zoey? Anyone?" she asked, sounding upset.

"What?" Dan called back, not really paying attention. Nicole opened the door, and saw who she felt was the boy of her dreams. "Oh, hey," he said, fighting a smile.

"Hey," Nicole happily replied. "Um, I just wanted to ask if you wanted to go swimming tomorrow afternoon? I just got a new swimsuit." The light brunette opened her towel, revealing her hot bikini.

Dan felt his heart flutter, and several unsettling sensations. "Whoa," he said, growing uneasy, but feeling amazing. "Wow, you look...amazing. Nicole, right? Um, yeah, I'd love to. I just need to buy a new suit."

"Cool," Nicole replied, feeling her breath becoming a mist. "See you then." The light brunette left the room, unable to fight a smile from forming on her face.

_Dana, whatter you doing? You hate her...Right? _the boy asked himself.

That night, Dana, Lola, Zoey, and Quinn were sitting in Room 101. "I can't believe you did that," Zoey declared.

"You're the one who was prying for an answer," Dan shot back. "Besides, what do you care? I'm only gonna be a man for so long."

"It may be a while until I perfect the new formula," Quinn replied.

"Whatever," Dan replied.

"And you're not a man," Zoey shot back. "You're just a boy."

"What's that supposed to mean?" Dana demanded.

"You're like a kid! the blond yelled. "You're immature, shallow, and obsessed with a girl just because she looks good!"

"And you'd rather I was with you?" Dan shot back, laced with fury. Zoey didn't respond, and ran out of the room, slamming the door behind her.

_You're just a boy! _Dana remembered. Those words hurt so much.

"That's didn't go well," Quinn said before burrying herself in her research.

	3. Chapter 3

Boys Don't Cry

Chapter Three

Dan sat alone in Room 101, staring at the wall in front of him. Maybe this whole situation was wrong. Going swimming with Nicole was really fun, but maybe it was only enjoyable because she was a guy now. To make matters worse, the two had a dinner date in a few hours. Since she was a guy now, Dana found she could eat between meals, and still consume an entire dinner; what a relief. Putting cookie after sweet, sweet cookie into his mouth, Dana tried to find artificial comfort. _What's wrong with Zoey, anyway? _Dan asked himself. _Why does she even care about Nicole and I?...Why do I care about Nicole? Being a boy sucks so much._

"Dan?" Quinn called from the hallway.

"In here," Dana called back, not getting up from his chair. The dark-haired girl entered Room 101, holding a vile of red liquid in her hands. "Dana," Quinn whispered. "I think I found a cure."

"What is it?" Dan asked, not sounding interested.

"Since the PowerAid had an entire-body effect, and was mostly testosterone, I deduced...with the help of Lola, that replacing the testosterone with estrogen would almost definitely undo the effect," Quinn explained.

"Are you sure it'll work?" Dan asked, chewing on another chocolate chip cookie. "I don't wanna turn into a girly girl."

"...I could do some more tests just to be sure," Quinn replied. "However, you shouldn't wait too long to recieve the antidote."

"Kay," Dana said. "Thanks, chick. Hey, I have some plans tonight, so uh..." Quinn nodded, then walked out of the room. Picking up her pink cell phone, Dan dialed Nicole's number. "Hey, Nicole...Yeah...Hey, I'm gonna be a little late tonight. Is that okay? Thanks. You're the best. Bye." The young man kissed into the phone, then hung up.

Feeling uneasy, Dana dawned her cleanest white t-shirt, threw on a black leather jacket, then walked out the door. The air was cool on his skin and short hair. Finally, the young man arrived at her destination; Chase's dorm room. Knocking on the door, Dan tried to gather her bearings. "Hey, Chase," he called. "It's me, Dan. Um, you have a minute?"

"Sure," Chase replied. "Door's open." Dana opened the door, closed it slowly, then sat down on the chair across from Chase. "What's up?" the curly-haired boy asked, sounding caring.

"...There's some stuff going on," Dana replied. "I mean...I know we really don't know each other, but this is like...a guy thing, you know?" Chase sat up, feeling concerned. "I mean, like...I've got feelings for this girl...but I never used to like her. And now...things just feel...different."

"W-what do you mean?" the curly-haired boy asked.

"I feel like...I've changed," Dan answered, trying to conceal what happened to her. "Like I'm...becoming a man."

"I think I know what you mean," Chase said. "There's a lot of changes going on, and you're not feeling right...What you really need to think of is...do you really like her, or do you just think she's pretty."

Dana sat still, looking at the floor. "You know," Chase continued. "It's pretty cool that you talked to me...not alotta guys would be willing to talk about this kinda stuff. Too many boys 'er raised to suck up their problems, or just date without thinking about it. Thanks for talking to me, man."

"Thanks for listening," Dan replied. The young man departed.

Nicole sat in a somewhat dark restaurant, clad in a purple, formal dress with her hair pulled back and in an upward style. Glancing at her watch, the young woman began to worry her boyfriend would stand her up. It wouldn't be the first time; guys thought Nicole was cheap, so few bothered or took her seriously. It hurt, but she kept believing there was someone out there for her. "Hey," greeted a soft, masculine voice. "Sorry I'm late." Dan sat down across from the girl.

"I was worried you wouldn't show," Nicole replied, smiling. "You look great."

"Back at'cha," Dan said. "So...I don't know about you, but I'm starving." Nicole giggled, then looked at her menu.

"Really glad we could do this," the brunette said, trying to hide her smile.

"Me too," Dana replied. "You're pretty cool."

"Glad you think so," Nicole responded. "You're probably the only one."

"Don't be so hard on yourself," Dan sympathized. "You seem like a really nice person..." _No she doesn't, _Dana thought. _She's always uses that stupid hair-drier when I'm trying to sleep, she acts like a bimbo all the time, and you've hated each other from day one...But why do I feel like I like her? I mean, like-like her._

"Thanks," Nicole replied, obviously touched to a degree. "You know...you're one of the nicest guys I've ever been with." Dana felt himself blush. This was so wrong. She didn't even like Nicole as a friend. Why was she liking her as a girlfriend? _Is it just because she's pretty?_

"...I feel kind of bad," Dan finally confessed. "I heard you weren't that nice of a person...but everything changed when I saw you...I know I sound shallow, but being with you just feels...right."

"What do you mean?" the brunette asked, obviously wondering about her boyfriend's morals.

"You seem...sweet," Dana answered. "You're not self-absorbed, you care about other people...You're just...nice. I don't know why someone like you would like me, though."

"Because you're sweet, honest, real...and," Nicole said. However, Dana missed everything after honest and real. How could she be honest? She wasn't even really a man...just a girl who got changed into one. She couldn't tell her; Nicole and Dan had to end well.

"...I wish I didn't have to go," Dan said, his voice almost in a whisper. A tear boiled in the young man's eye, and remained there.

"Me too," Nicole replied. "I don't think I'll ever meet anyone like you." This wasn't the Nicole everyone else saw; this was real. "Maybe I won't date after this."

Dana smiled. "I know you'll find someone who can see and respect the real you," he said, his voice warm. "Maybe I can find another person almost like you...But I doubt it." The two smiled at one another. At times like this, it was easy to feel no one in the world could ever see you like that one person does. It makes dating, condescending acts deemed polite, and foolish bimbo behavior all seem so worthless; just like they really are. This was real.

Dana closed her eyes, and drank the antidote that night. The next morning, she watched her hair grow and tassel like it used to be, and soon found she was a girl again. Dan had apparently returned to his home, where he knew he'd stay alone, just as he wanted.

"Hey, Nicole," Dana said, her voice weak. "I just wanted to say sorry for missing you when your plane took off."

"Oh...that's okay," Nicole replied, caught off guard.

_It really is over, _Dana realized. _But we can still be friends, right? _"Do you wanna...hang out later?" the shining brunette asked.

"...Really?" Nicole asked. Dana nodded. "Cool. I thought you hated me."

"I thought you hated me first," Dana replied. The two chuckled, and walked over to the wooded section of campus with Zoey, Lola, and Quinn. "Thanks for getting me back to myself," Dana said.

"Sorry I messed you up in the first place," Quinn replied. "Oh, and so you know how much I wanted to help you...Lola took some pictures of a girly girl in a tutu." Dana looked at the photograph of Quinn with her hair pulled back into a bun and clad in a pink, frilly tutu. All the girls laughed. Somewhere, Dan was laughing too.

End file.

Disclaimer: I don't own Zoey 101. If I did, the show wouldn't be ending.

**This story takes place inbetween Walk-a-thon, Vince is back, and Dinner for two many. What Quinn and Logan did in the 6 weeks that took place between those episodes.**
I tried to make this as realistic as possible.
This is my first ever fanfiction. R&R!

**Oneshot. (Two chapters though)**

* * *

The gang was hanging out having lunch, as usual. The only person missing was James, who was still getting his lunch.

"So Zo' doing anything tonight?" asked Lola.

"Mhmm, I have a date with James tonight," replied Zoey.

"No way! I have a date tonight too!"

"With who?" replied Zoey

"Who do you think," said Lola, "Vince!"

"Ugh, of course _you_ do."

"Your just jealous because you don't have a date tonight, Logan," Michael replied.

"Look who's talking!"

"I actually do have a date tonight! with Lisa!"

"Who's Lisa?" asked James walking up with his food.

"Hey babe," James sat next to Zoey. Zoey gave James a quick peck on the lips.

"Awww, GET A ROOM!" said Logan. (In his voice he uses when he acts like a Jerk)

Zoey gave him (Logan) a mean stare.

"Lisa's his on-again-off-again girlfriend," Quinn said without looking up from her book.

"Oh," said James.

"So Quinn you doing anything tonight?" asked Zoey.

This time Quinn looked up. "uhhh, No."

"What are you reading anyway?" asked Lola.

"I think she's studying" said James.

"For what?" wondered Lola.

"Probably our science test," said Logan. In a I'm better than you tone.

"Our?" said Michael, James and Lola at the same time.

"Me and Quinn are in the same science class.," said Logan.

Zoey already knew this, remembering that Logan told her how when he was her tutor.

"How does someone as stupid as you even get into a class that Quinn's in," said Michael,in yeah-sure, kind of tone.

"Don't call him stu-"

Logan kicked Quinn under the table. A little bit to hard.

_OUCH! thought Quinn.._

Logan gave Quinn that glare. (The they-can't-think-we're-dating-so-stop-defending-me one) "Nevermind," said Quinn.

No one noticed the glare that was given.

"I know some things," said Logan, getting back to the conversation.

"Like what? You're always failing classes!" argued Lola.

"NOT SCIENCE!" Logan said. Kind of loud.

"You guys, remember when Logan was tutoring me? He actually does know, somethings," said Zoey

_Beep. Beep. Beep._ Someones cell phone when off.

James answered it, "I have to go later."

"Me too see ya later guys."

"Bye Michael, bye James," said the girls.

"_Finnally,"_ said Logan under his breath.

"**Hey!** I have an idea!!" yelled Lola out of knowwhere.

Quinn jumped a little. Lola stared at her.

"What? You scared me," said Quinn defending herself.

"So, whats your idea?" asked Zoey.

"Well, since Logan and Quinn are both, _Not_ Busy tonight they should, I don't know, hang out!"

"No way!"

"Why would I hang out with _a science_ nerd?

"Haha, you guys should totally do that." Said Zoey.

"NO!" they replied. They had to make sure the others knew they _'hated' _each other.

Ring Ring. Logan's phone went off.

It said:_
CALLING: MICHAEL._

"Hey, whats up?" Logan answered.

"Don't forget to get the computer fixed!"

"Michael! Stop reminding me. I know"

"Okay, so will you or not?"

"I will, okay?!" Logan sounded a bit irritated. However, he just thought of an idea.

"Geez, no need to get upset man."

"Bye Michael"

Logan hung up.

"Was that Michael?" asked Lola, sarcastically.

Logan gave Lola that your-so-dumb look.

cough Logan made a face that looked like he didn't want to ask something. _(Just part of the plan, he thought)_

"Actually, Quinn could you do me a favor?

All three girls looked surprised. _
However, Quinn knew he was trying to find a way to get her to spend time with him._

"What?" she asked.

"Could you fix my computer?"

"What?!" Quinn said, sounded surprised.

"Well can you?" said Logan, faking irritation.

"I can, but why would I?"

"I'll pay you."

"Whatever, its not like I have anything better to do anyway."

Logan smiled for a second. "_Yessss_" he said under his breath.

"What?" said Zoey

"Nothing," said Logan.

"Okay, so come over at 7:30 I guess," Logan said getting up, he was getting read to leave.
HE knew 7:30 was the perfect time because James and now Michael will be gone, on their dates. And he could be in the dorm by himself.

"Whatever, yeah ok." Said Quinn, watching Logan leave.

Quinn looked at her watch, "I gotta go!" she said grabbing her bag.

"Me too," said Zoey.

"I guess I do too, ciao!" said Lola as she grabbed her stuff and left.

All the girls went in different directions. Except Quinn, she caught up with Logan.

As soon as the were a considerably far enough distance from Zoey and Lola, Quinn and Logan started to talk.

"Are we good or are we good?" said Logan.

His and Quinn's plan had worked. They were going to get to hang out in his dorm. Without anyone thinking they're dating.

"They still think we hate each other," said Quinn in a they're-so-stupid-we-have-them-fooled tone.

"Wanna go make out?" He had a smirk on this face.

"Mhhhmm," replied Logan's girlfriend.

_Knock, Knock, Knock._

"I'll get it!" Micheal opened the door, as he was leaving for his date anyway. Plus he was late, James had already left for his date.

"Hi Michael!" Quinn said.

"Bye!" said Mike.

"See you later," said Logan.

"Uh ok, Bye!" said Quinn as she closed the door behind Michael. She looked at Logan.

"Hey babe," said Logan.

"Hey yourself," replied Quinn as she sat down on the computer.

Logan looked disappointed. He forgot that Quinn actually had to fix the problem before they could do anything.

"Like how long is gonna take you to finsh that?" said Logan, "because we only have so much time befor-"

"DONE!"

"That was fast," said Logan. "Now come here."

Quinn sat next to Logan on the couch. He was watching something, but turned it off.

They kissed, but only for a a few seconds because they heard the door knob turning.

Quinn jumped up and ran to the computer.

Mike walked in.

"Aww, come on!" said Logan using a why-are-you-here-go-away tone.

"I forgot my," Michael looking around for something, "cell phone." He picked it up the left.

"OK bye!" said Logan irritated.

Logan got up and locked the door. This way they wouldn't get interrupted again.

Quinn sat back on the couch.

"Now where we're we?" said Logan.

"Here," Quinn said and started kissing him.

They made out for like 7-10 minutes straight.

Then they pulled apart, "How much time until they get back?" asked Quinn.

"I think they went to a dinner and movie, so at _least_ an hour and half."

Its was getting dark. This gave Logan an idea. He walked over and put his ipod in the dock. He turned it on. Then he turned off the lights.

"Logan, what are you doing?"

"Wanna dance?"

"Awww, I'd love too!" Quinn said, excitedly.

They couple danced and kissed and the danced some more. After a while thought, Quinn turned the lights back on.

"What?" asked Logan

"Lets do something else."

"Quinnnn."

"_Pleaseee?"_ Quinn gave him the pout.

"Okay, okay, what?" Said Logan as he turned off the ipod.

"Um, lets watch a movie."

They watched the movie for about 15 minutes before they started making out. They were so into it they didn't hear Michael and James out in the hallway. (And James and Michael were being loud.)

They heard the door handle turn.

Oh no! the couple thought.

Thankfully, the locked door stopped them. And Quinn and Logan had enough time to get their science book out, to make it look as if they were 'studying.'

"Dude! Open the door!" yelled Michael through the door.

"Oh, sorry" Logan went to open the door.

"Why did you lock the door," James asked

Logan was hesitant. "Uhh, I didn't. It must of happened when you left."
Logan sounded nervous. In a loud whisper he said, "_Stupid doorknob_." As if to make look like he didn't purposely lock it.

"Oh yeah, sorry man," replied Michael. _Thinking that yeah, that's probably what happened._

_He is so **oblivious**. Thought Quinn._

"Oh hey Quinn," James and Mike said, as they saw Quinn the first time since entering the room.

Quinn had made it look like she had been studying hard.

"Hey, how were your dates?"

"Great!" James replied.

"Oh you know, same ol' Lisa," said Micheal, Quinn raised her eyebrows at him. "Okay, okay. I had a good time."

"That's good!" she replied.

"So, what were you guys doing? You obviously weren't fixing the computer." James said in a suspicious yet sarcastic tone.

"Oh, just studying," lied Quinn. "Well, I got to go."

"Bye Quinn," said Michael and James.

"See you later," said Logan.

"Bye guys!" said a very happy Quinn.

As Quinn was leaving she heard Micheal ask:

"So is the computer fixed?"

"YES MICHAEL! The computer is fixed. Now shut up about that stupid computer!" shouted Logan.

Quinn laughed.

_I cannot believe we pulled that off, thought Quinn._

Quinn and Logan's secret date by STOPshannon


The New Surprise

The semester at Covington is almost over and Chase will soon be back at PCA. He will finally be able to reunite with Zoey. However, Zoey is now dating James even though she made a promise to Chase that they will go out when he returns.

Zoey hasn't forgotten about Chase, she just believes that a semester is a long time to wait for someone. While Zoey is dating James, she still doesn't know if she is doing the right thing. Also, Zoey doesn't know how Chase will react when he comes back and sees her with James.

Chase is in London and he is calling his parents who are back in the United States.

"Hey mom. The semester is over and I am heading back to PCA," said Chase.

"That's great, but are you sure. You know if you leave Covington it will be hard for you to go back if you don't want to stay at PCA," said Chase's mom.

"I am sure. Besides I will be with my friends," said Chase.

"Okay," said Chase's mom.

Back at PCA Micheal, Zoey, and James are sitting in the lounge watching the PCA news.

"How much more bored could we be if we are watching the news?" said James.

"I know," said Zoey and begins feeding James a grape.

"Can you two stop that?" asked Micheal.

"Why?" asked Zoey.

"It is annoying," said Micheal and his phone rings so he picks it up. "Hello."

"Hey," said Chase.

"Chase," said Micheal.

Zoey gets a shocked looked on her face and then she really begins to listen to Micheal's conversation.

"Chase? Isn't that your best friend Zoey?" asked James.

"Yeah it is," said Zoey.

"Of course it's me," said Chase on the other line.

"It is great that you called, but why did you call?" asked Micheal.

"My plane just landed," said Chase.

"What do you mean?" said Micheal who was really confused.

"My plane just landed and I am back in California," said Chase.

"Really? That's great," said Micheal.

"I will be there in a half hour," said Chase and he hung up.

Micheal closed his phone and had a weird look on his face and then said, "Wow that's cool."

"What's cool?" said Zoey and James together.

"Uh...nothing Zoey," said Micheal and he left the lounge.

Meanwhile, in the girl's dorm, which is room 101, Quinn and Logan are alone. However, in walks Lola who stops and has a stunned look on her face.

"What are you two doing?" asked Lola and the second she spoke Quinn and Logan jump apart.

"We weren't doing anything," said Logan.

"Yes you were. I saw you," said Lola.

"No you didn't," said Quinn.

"I saw you two kissing," said Lola and Logan's eyes got really big.

"Maybe we should tell her," said Logan.

"Okay," said Quinn.

"Lola...we are dating," said Logan..

Lola begins to laugh and then says, "Are you serious?"

"Yes," said Logan.

"Wow, I never though that would happen," said Lola.

At that moment Micheal runs into the dorm.

"Chase...is...coming...be here...half hour," said Micheal and then he fainted on the floor.

Zoey came walking into the dorm accompanied by James and they both saw Micheal lying on the floor.

"Why is Micheal on the floor?" said Zoey.

"He ran in here breathing hard and then he fainted," said Quinn.

"Did he say anything?" asked Zoey and Lola, Quinn, and Logan all exchanged a look of whether to tell her or not.

"Should we tell her?" asked Quinn.

"She will know sooner or later," said Lola.

"You guys, just tell me what he said," said Zoey.

"Chase is on his way here right now," said Logan.

"That's...Oh-no," said Zoey and she looked at James.

"Oh-on is right," said Logan.

"Why what's wrong?" asked James.

No one wanted to tell James what was really going on so they just told him it was nothing and just moved on. Meanwhile, Chase was already in a cab and was heading toward PCA.

**"**I am glad to be going back to PCA," said Chase.

"You've been there before?" asked the cab driver.

"Yeah, but this past semester I was at Covington in London, England," said Chase.

"Covington is a great school," said the cab driver.

"Yeah, but I would rather be with my friends instead," said Chase.

"Of course, be where you are happy, said the cab driver.

Chase looked out the window and then asked the cab driver, "How much longer?"

"Just a couple of minutes. In fact I think we are here," said the cab driver.

Chase finally arrived back at PCA and he could not have been happier. He climbed out of the cab, took his suitcase out of the trunk, the cab pulled away, and Chase took out his phone.

"I have to call Zoey," said Chase.

Zoey was still in her dorm as her phone rang. She picked up and answered it.

"Hello?" said Zoey.

"Come outside," said Chase.

"Is this Chase?" said Zoey.

"Just come outside," said Chase.

Zoey walked outside and she saw Chase, but the only problem was that James comes out with her.

"Chase your back," said Zoey and she gave Chase a hug.

"Yeah. I just got here," said Chase.

"Your staying this time right," said Zoey.

"Yes. Who is this?" said Chase as he pointed to James.

"This is James. Ummm...he's my boyfriend," said Zoey.

"Your boyfriend," said Chase.

"Yeah," said Zoey.

"What about the promise we made?" asked Chase.

"Ummmm...," said Zoey.

"Zoey I don't want to be around you right now. I have to be somewhere else," said Chase and he walked away.

"Chase wait!!" said Zoey.

Chase kept walking and when Zoey called his name again he run out of sight.

It is night time and Chase is walking around the campus. Then he decided to go sit on the fountain. As Chase turned to look at the water tears began to fall down his cheeks.

Back in the girl's dorm Zoey is talking with Lola and Quinn about what she is going to do now that Chase is back.

"What am I going to do?" asked Zoey.

"We really can't help you there because that is your choice," said Quinn.

"We can't tell you what to do," said Lola.

"That really doesn't help me," said Zoey.

"We are sorry," said Quinn.

"I think I should break up with James," said Zoey.

"Why?" asked Lola

"Because I...love Chase," said Zoey.

"WHAT!!" said Lola and Quinn.

"I love Chase. I have to go and talk to James and tell him what is going on," said Zoey.

In the boy's dorm James and Zoey are by themselves and they are sitting on the couch talking.

"So you are telling me that Chase has been in love with you for 3 1/2 years," said Jaames.

"Yes," said Zoey.

"And you love him?" asked James.

"Yes I do. I realized he is the one I want to be with," said Zoey.

"Why didn't you tell me this in the first place?" asked James.

"I don't know," replied Zoey.

"I guess we are broken up," said James.

"Yeah," said Zoey and they look at each other for a moment and then Zoey leaves.

Zoey walks outside to look for Chase and she spots him by the fountain.

"Do you mind if I sit down?" asked Zoey.

"Do whatever you want," said Chase and he gets up to leave.

"Chase, I'm sorry!!" said Zoey.

Chase stops and turns around facing Zoey.

"I know I shouldn't have gone out with James," said Zoey

"I have been in love with you since the first day I saw you..," said Chase.

"I know but-," said Zoey.

Chase interrupts Zoey and says, "No! Let me finish. When I told you a few months ago that love you, I meant every word."

"And I meant it when I told you," said Zoey.

"Then why are you going out with James said Chase.

"I went out with him because you weren't here. He seems like a very nice guys and I wanted to date him. Anyways, I broke up with him," said Zoey.

"You did?" said Chase and he was cheered up a bit.

"Yes because you are the one I want to be with. So, will you be my boyfriend?" asked Zoey.

"Of course," said Chase and they both hug and kiss.

The little things

Okay so I'm taking a break from my chaptered stories and doing some one shots

**Okay so I'm taking a break from my chaptered stories and doing some one shots.**

**I got this idea when I thought about a comic book I was reading.**

**Thanks**

It was always the little things that got her happy.

Like when she got into a bubble bath that was just the way she liked it.

Girls always wanted a big wending, a fairy tale love, a castle or beach mansion on the coast.

But not her, the only thing she wanted from him was his love.

He never seemed to be excited when he got kisses from girls.

But she always made him blush every time they kissed.

She was happy just sitting and talking, she never relied on him to take her to the movies or to the park. But when he did she got excited.

She always got happy when he took her for a walk on the beach when the sun was setting, and she was content on digging her feet into the sand and watching his face.

She watched Titanic a million times over, yet every time she cried.

Not the sad cry, the happy cry, like when he told her he loved her.

She always told him she loved him, and how much she just wanted to stay this way.

He always asked her why she didn't get happy over big things.

She would smile and say "The only thing I get really happy over is having you as my boyfriend"

He would grasp her hand, and just that movement would make her happy.

She got happy just being with him.

If it were normal he would of made a joke that all girls got happy just being with him.

But it wasn't normal, and she wasn't normal.

She filled a gap in his heart.

A hollow hole that use to be in his soul was filled by her love.

The ego he had was now fully turned onto her.

The part in his head where he always thought about him was now thinking about her non-stop.

The playboy part of him was now fully dedicated to her.

She made him want to kiss her and only her.

She was the candy bar he was never allowed to have as a child.

She was the bittersweet like lemons, yet she always had a taste to her like plums.

He always found her quirky and giddy when he cuddled her.

She was content and happy over just being _his._

To be Quinn's boyfriend you had to expect the UN expected.

And that was hard considering the only thing Logan Reese expected was to have her for the rest of his life.

**Short I know, it was random drabble.**

**I love purple, do you see that purple button on the left of the screen.**

**Well please please pretty please press it.**

1. OMG! CHASE IS BACK!

Zoey 101: Chasing Chase

Zoey was alone on her bed in dorm 101, playing Sims 2 on her new Pearbook she got for her birthday. She was just relaxing when Lola came bursting through the door with a bottle of Blix in her hand.

"Hey Lola," Zoey said.

"Get up!" Lola screamed.

"WOAH!" Zoey said. "OK!"

Zoey scrambled out of bed and put her laptop away.

"What's up?" Zoey asked, yawning.

"Hey Zo!" Lola said. "Guess who's coming to PCA?"

"Brad Pitt?" Zoey said getting out a brush ."OMG primp!"

"No Silly Chase!" Lola said.

"Oh my gosh!" Zoey said. "Shut up!"

"It's true!" Quinn said walking through the door.

"How?" Zoey said.

"Well Chase got expelled and is coming back in a few days!" Lola said.

"Still OMG PRIMP!" Zoey yelled hugging Lola and Quinn.

A few days pass and Dean Rivers said that 6 kids can come with him and they are, Lola, James, Quinn, Zoey, Michael and Logan.

Zoey and Lola go to the I Love LA shop and buy a ton of stuff for them and Chase. Quinn goes to Starbucks with Logan. And Michael goes to McDonalds and they all get a (real) lunch at Denny's. The plane landed and Chase came out with 10 bags.

Zoey flung her arms out and yelled, "CHASE!"

Zoey carried 2, Lola carried one, Logan carried one, Quinn carried two, James carried one, Michael carried 2 and Chase carried one. They went to baggage claim and Dean Rivers took all of them, which were only three, but James, Zoey and Lola helped too. So when they got to PCA Zoey and Lola helped Chase unload.

After they were done Lola said, "Oh go to go, Vincey B is waiting!" Lola said.

"What?!" Chase said

Zoey explained how he changed and was NOT a jerk.

So Zoey and Chase got some alone time to talk, because the only time they talked was like one or two months ago on video chat when the computer shut down.

"So Zoey," Chase said.

"So Chase," Zoey replied.

"I've been waiting so long to see you!" they said in unison.

"Akward," they said in unsion again.

"Chase?" Zoey said.

"Ya Zo?" Chase asked.

"Listen to us," Zoey said. "We say the exact same things at the same time."

"I know it's weird," Chase said.

"Uh Chase," Zoey said. "Where's the Blix?"

"Over there," Chase said pointing to a cabinet.

"Thanks," she said as she got up.

Zoey got some grape blix and threw a strawberry to Chase. She sat back down and kissed Chase.

"Chase," Zoey said.

"Zoey," Chase said.

"Will you go out with me?" Zoey asked smiling.

"Sure why not?" Chase said.

"Yay!" Zoey said kissing Chase.

	2. 2 Hello Trouble

"OK Chase I gotta go," Zoey said.

"K see ya around Zo," Chase said.

"Ya," Zoey said.

Zoey ran out to James's new dorm. Chase heard he was cool, so wanted to meet him.

"Hey James," Zoey said to James and kissed him.

Right when they were kissing Chase walked in and walked right out, devistated.

He called Lola on her cell phone and asked her to meet him at Sushi Rox. Chase got to Sushi Rox and waiting a good ten minutes or so. Then Lola came.

"Wha's up?" Lola asked.

"You," Chase said.

"Me?" Lola asked.

"Yeah you hot stuff," Chase said smiling.

"Well I have to admit I _am _pretty hot," she said.

"So Lola," Chase said.

"So Chase," Lola said.

"You and me," he said.

"Me and you," she said back.

"Us," Chase said.

"What about us?" Lola asked.

"We're soulmates," Chase said.

"OK?" Lola asked.

"So," Chase said. "Do you wanna go out?"

"Of course!" Lola said leaping into his arms.

So Lola ran to her dorm where she found Zoey drinking some Blix and watching Curly Cow.

"Oh my god!" Lola yelled.

"What?" Zoey said. "Is it 'Disturb Zoey When She's Relaxing Day' cuz I did NOT get the memo!"

"OK whatev," Lola said. "Guess what?""What?" Zoey said.

"I dumped Vincey B!" Lola said. "For guess who?"

"Coffee cart guy?" Zoey asked.

"No he's UGLY!" Lola said laughing. "I am going out with Chase!"

"What?!" Zoey exclaimed.

"Ya he kissed me!" Lola said. "7 times!"

And she started pointing to spots, 3 on her left cheek, two on her right, once on her nose and the other one on her lips.

"Pass me a grape," Zoey said.

Lola passed her a grape and Zoey caught it in her mouth. And started to get up.

"Where ya going Zo?" Lola asked.

"Uh I gotta go talk to Chase," Zoey said slamming the door behind her.

"Ow!" Lola said. "That was loud."

Zoey ran to talk to Chase.

Chase was there playing Guitar Hero III and saw Zoey and said, "Oh hey Zo."

"We need to talk!" Zoey said sternly. "Why did you ask Lola out?"

"Well you're already going out with James," Chase said. "So why can't I have some fun, fool around a little?"

"Bec- Becau- Because," Zoey said.

"Because what?" Chase asked.

"Chase I love you!" Zoey said.

"Holy Shitaki Mushrooms!" Chase said. "That felt good."

Zoey leaned to Chase and kissed him.

"Did that make you feel better?" Zoey said.

James walked in right when she was making out with Chase.

"Ya to know that Zoey is cheating on me?" James said.

"Uh," Zoey said.

"Choose!" both of them said.

"Sorry James," Zoey said. "Can we still be friends?"

"Sure," James said. "Whatever make ya happy!"

"But why Chase?" he asked.

"Because I was waiting a LONG time to go out with Chase", Zoey said. "Since the start of the semester."

"OK," James said. "I'll see ya around Zo."

James went off crying.

"I feel bad," Zoey said.

"Why?" Chase asked.

"James he liked me-- a lot," Zoey siad. "That hurt him-- when I dumped him."

"It'll be alright Zo," Chase said. "It always is."

"I guess you're right," Zoey said as Chase put her arm around her.

Zoey called Lola and said the whole story...

My next FanFic will be Lola getting Vincey B back...

Oh and if you don't know Vincey B is Vince Blake.

Chasing Chase by paintingskylines


The first dance

**Song: You Can by David Archuleta.**

**Disclaimer: Don't own anything.**

**This was inspired by the part of 'How are they friends', where Quinn/Logan have their first dance as husband and wife. It actually is the song that I wrote in that story as their first dance, and I wanted to write out everything they said to each other.**

* * *

"And now it's time for newlyweds to have their first dance! So, please, Mr. & Mrs. Reese, step onto the dance floor." The DJ announces, and nerves course through me in quite a rush. My first dance as a 'Mrs.' The sea of people that are here cheer loudly, and a few whistles are heard.

Logan, naturally, radiates confidence. He just stands up, and offers out his hand to me. I look back and forth to his gesture and his face, feeling super uneasy. Dancing is NOT a high I have, and I had this powerful hunch that I would end up stepping all over his feet. But, against my better judgment, I take his hand, and stand up. Oh, God. My legs are literally shaking.

His genuine smile grows at my awkwardness (Even at our wedding, he still has his subtle ways of laughing at my quirkiness), and casually leads me to the dance floor that is in the center of the room. I can feel eyes burning holes in my head, but the pressure of them slowly fades away, as for the millionth time today, Logan and I enter our own world.

When we are directly in the center of the dance floor, my arms wrap tightly around his neck for support (I was starting to get light headed) and his arms rest comfortably on my waist (I can tell his hands are itching to grab my butt, but he keeps them on the tip of my tailbone, no doubt for the sake of manors in front of the crowd).

He leans down to my ear, and seductively whispers, "I choose this song because I think it sums up my feelings for you. And you know I'm not good at the whole lovey-dovey stuff." I feel my face redden, and then I pull him tighter.

A soft strum of guitar chords flows out from the speakers, and the sound waves happily bounce around the room, eagerly filling up everyone's ears. And a few seconds later, a warm voice echoes throughout the room. I look slightly up at my Logan, and I am positive there is a helpless, pleading look present in my brown orbs. His casual smile lights up his own eyes, and he starts to rock us back and forth.

"Mrs. Reese?"

"Hmmm?"

"You'd move better if you relaxed your muscles."

"Sorry. Just nervous."

"I know."

He flashes his famous smirk that I just love so much, and I can't help but stretch up and kiss him. Just a peck, of course. Our consciouses may be in linked in their own worlds, but our subconscious' are very aware of the prying eyes that follow our every move.

He starts singing along half way through the first verse, and my smile increases as I take in the words, and fully realize that they are an impeccable definition of what I presume is his love for me. "Tell me what I'm feeling isn't some mistake, 'cause if anyone can make me fall in love, you can. Save me from myself, you can and it's you and no one else."

Our feet start to move in rhythm, in sync. Side, side, forward, backward. I relax a bit, and lean against his flawless chest; even his rock hard, wash board abs brings me warmth. He kisses my hair, and stops singing abruptly. I pull away, wanting to see his facial expression.

"Why'd you stop?"

"If I'm singing, I can't use my lips for this." And he leans in again, for another peck.

"I love you."

"I love you too."

I put my head back on his sternum, and let him rock me side to side.

"Remember the first time I told you that?" He murmurs to me.

"How could I forget? Lola still is angry at me about the whole secret thing."

"I wish we had just gone to prom together that year. I wish we never hid the relationship."

"Maybe if we were public sooner, the teasing would have been too much. It was your first serious relationship, and I was still kinda broken over the whole Mark thing."

"Babe, this IS my first serious relationship. And my last. I'll never leave you. You know that, right?"

I lightly push off of him again, and crush his lips with my own for two (heavenly) seconds.

"Well, who would have guessed we would be here right now? Wearing rings, being blinded by feelings for each other?"

"Dana. She has a sense for this kind of thing."

"No way could she have guessed we would happen. I mean, she told me she LOVED me at the end of freshman year."

"Yeah, and that summer, we emailed one another like crazy. She told me she thought we would make a cute couple."

"And you replied?"

"Something along the lines of 'I just threw up in my mouth' or 'I'd go out with Firewire before I would go out with that jerk'."

"What? Not 'Logan is the coolest, hottest guy in the world, and I am totally and completely in love with him'?"

"That would be a plausible response; now. But back then, you were the guy who infuriated me. Nonstop."

"I'll tell you a secret."

I give him my best 'continue' face, and his smirk appears again.

"For one kiss, Mrs. Reese."

I roll my eyes, but while smiling (because, after all these years, I'm used to the feelings of frustration and affection running through me. Our lips meet again.

"Looking back, I have had a huge crush on you ever since I met you. I just didn't realize it."

"And how do you now this?"

"Well, look at all the facts. I have always hated Del Figgalo, for an unknown reason. Now I know it was out of jealousy. And they always say you tease the person you like, right? And can you think of another girl that could convince me to walk around in heels and a dress?"

I smile wider and laugh at the memory.

"You did look pretty fierce in that orange number."

"I bet you would look better in it."

"Guess we'll find out."

"You still have it?"

"How could I get rid of it? It is in the box on the top shelf of my closet."

His eyebrows knit together in thought.

"Which closet?"

"The one in our second bedroom. The one that is painted yellow."

"Oh, okay."

A silence falls between us, but he interrupts it, shortly after it starts.

"How bout we make this dance more interesting?"

"Uh, sure. How exactly?"

He smirks AGAIN, and then closes his hand around mine, pulling our elbows out. My opposite hand knows where to go next; it falls right over the small of his back.

My big ball dance moment is here. My Cinderella moment. The complex (for me, at least) steps come fairly easy with his ease as a partner. I spin and twirl, and smile. Smile wider and happier and bigger than ever.

After my final spin in, we go back to the first position. The song is on the end of the second verse now; time seems to be going incredibly slow.

"It's funny."

"What?" I ask. He really is this big mystery to me, that I never can fully figure out.

"I vowed never to tie myself down. Look how it worked out for my dad. He goes through wife after wife. A new bride every other year. And now, here I am. Going against the biggest rule I ever had for myself."

"Do you think you made the right choice?"

He looks like a deer in headlights; totally caught off guard.

"Duh."

And our lips touch, for a bit longer of a kiss; around five seconds.

"Why are you suddenly so romantic?"

"Do you want me to stop?" His face holds lots of confusion.

"No. I like it. I just want to know why you are all sappy."

"I'm not being 'sappy'. I just want this to be a big, blissful, romantic memory. Something we can look back on when we are at our kid's weddings, watching them dance as newlyweds. I just want you to remember it the way I will."

"And how is that?"

"Remember the feeling of looking into each other's eyes, and knowing how ecstatic we are. Remember the way love just seems to be in the air, no matter how cheesy that sounds. Remember how, even after everything we have gone through, we still are strong; we still want each other like we are teenagers."

"I think that is the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me."

"Crap. Maybe I am being too sappy."

I give him an evil glare, but end up tilting my head back in a fit of giggles. When my head tilts back, his eyes are sparkling from the smile that takes up so much of his face.

"There's my Logan."

"And you're still my Quinn, right?"

"That's what the papers we signed say. That's what I know."

He pulls me back into him, and starts singing to me again, softly.

"Only you can take me sailing in your deepest eyes. Bring me to my knees and make me cry. And no one's ever done this, everything was just a lie and I know, yes, I know; this is where it all begins, so tell me it will never end. I can't fool myself; it's you and no one else."

I pull back, and just stare into his eyes.

"I love you. And I've never been this elated before, ever."

"I love you, too. And the fact that I know what that word means proves it."

"I'm rubbing off on you. Is that okay?"

"As long as you're okay that I'm rubbing off on you, then yes."

"I can't believe I was nervous to come out here and dance with you. What could've gone wrong?"

"Well, it's understandable that you were worried. You were having a major panic attack before meeting me in front of the justice of the piece."

"I wouldn't call it major, just the normal response girls get when- wait, how do you know I was freaking out? Who told you?"

"Zoey. When I got up to go to the bathroom, she pulled me aside to hug and you know her big mouth."

"I'm sorry."

"What? Why?"

"I should have known that marrying you is the best decision I have ever made."

"Glad you came to your senses, but you don't have to be sorry."

And he lifts my chin, for our last kiss during the dance. And this one lasts a whole ten seconds. By the end of it, the song is over, and more cheering is heard.

"Okay! Now how 'bout some more dance-y songs now? Let's get the floor filled!" The DJ yells out. Some old Nicki Minaj song blasts though the speakers; maybe Lola and I's favorite song back in the beginning of 2012, Starships. I couldn't tell yet, because Logan had made me lose myself in his lips. Thankfully, the gang and other guests piled around us on the floor.

My first dance as Mrs. Reese; beyond perfect. So far beyond.

**Oh, and I am starting to question if people really read these author notes. So, if you did, type an '=' in your review too, so I can see how many people really read this.**
