Chapter 1: Can we talk?
Disclaimer: I don't own Zoey 101. *sigh*
"So, I don't know what to do. Vince told me that he has something good to show me, but what about the audition?" Lola continued to rant on. I rolled my eyes and stared at her in disbelief. I can't believe anyone could talk so much. I sighed.
"Lola, Vince is an understanding guy. I think he would totally understand if you have to ditch your date for an acting audition for the new blitz commercial." She still looked discourage.
"I know, but I can't stop wondering what he could possible want to show me. It could be a promise ring I always wanted!" she exclaim. The other students glance at us for the sudden outburst. I looked at them and smile shyly as they went back to their own personal life. We were in chemistry class and I couldn't wait any longer for that stupid bell to ring. We had three more minutes but it felt like we had 3 more hours. I was sitting looking at Chase momentarily hoping he'll realized that it was a signal for him to come to me, but he was too focus on Michael and Logan.
"I don't know what you want me to say Lola. I told you to do both but yet; you always find an excuse of why you can't do the other. There's only one of you so you need to figure it out." I concluded. She looked at me and grunted a little. She nodded her head.
"You're right. I just need to think about this for a while. Thanks." She smiled. It was hard to smile at first but I begin to warm up and grin at her. The bell rung and I got up and lift up my book bag over my shoulder. Lola and I automatically waited for the boys as we usually do. They came up to us as if they didn't pay so much attention and burst into laughter. I smiled at how foolish they were being.
"What's so funny?" I started chuckling too without knowing why exactly. Michael was the loudest and couldn't hear me. He was wiping his tears from his eyes. Logan was also doing the same but leaning on Michael. Chase was the only one that showed sign of my existence but didn't answer my question.
"Wow, when I thought they can't be anymore immature." Lola rolled her eyes and crossed her arms against her chest. I looked back at the boys and slowly their laughter was dying, I decided to take this as an advantage to ask again.
"Okay? What happened?" The boys finally started walking out of the class and Lola and I followed. Logan and Michael didn't hear me once again but Chase waited for me and walked aside of me. Chase shrugged and put his arms around me.
"So what's up?" Chase seems to want to change the subject. I hear some chuckle from the guys ahead. Lola was preoccupied with her phone to even notice what was going on in her surrounding which was normal.
"I guess you're not going to tell me?" I concluded and stare at my boyfriend.
"There's nothing much to tell." He corrected. Logan slowed down.
"Plus it's a guy thing. You girls wouldn't understand." Logan said being a sexist like he always is. I rolled my eyes.
"Logan can you ever stop comparing guys and girls as if we are a whole different species?" I questioned in irritation.
"You guys might as well be a whole different species! Girls are so complicated for no reason; it's nothing but annoying." I was taken aback by his words. Logan smirk as he noticed me being offended by what he said. He turned back around and walked forward to be back with Michael, leaving a huge gap between our two groups.
"What?" I said under my breath. Chase shushed me in comfort as he knew me really well and saw what was coming.
"It's okay Zoey. It's Logan." He said it as if it was obvious. I was still upset.
"Why does he do that? Why do you talk to him Chase?" I was annoyingly curious with my many unanswered questions. He only shrugs.
"Maybe the same reason why Michael and sometimes you are cool with him." he pointed. I shook my head. Chase laughed quietly. "Zoey, Logan is cool when he wants to be but there are day when he could be a-
"Jerk." I finished and stare at him. He smiled and slowly nodded his head. I smiled at my quick comment. Chase kissed me on my forehead and we proceeded walking.
Lola went to our dorm claiming that she needed to think over what we had discussed in chemistry. I decided to go to the guy's dorm since it was a Friday night. I didn't have any homework so I could chill with my boyfriend.
"So what should we do when we go to my dorm?" Chase said as he was leaning against me as if he was drunk. I pushed his body weight away from me and caught his smile.
"I don't know. What do you want to do?" I said innocently. He looked at me and stared at me as if he was giving me a message. He opened the door for me to walk inside his building.
"What?" I asked being a little creep out by his stare.
"I was thinking, Maybe we should watch a movie, warm up some popcorn and you know." He stopped and looked at me. I had an idea what he wanted but I continued to act as if I didn't.
"Nope I don't know. Why don't you tell me?" I said sweetly. He rolled his eyes as he caught on my little act.
"I was thinking that maybe we should cuddle a little, just the way you like it and you know…" he leaned down and kissed me a little. He pulled away and looked at my eyes. I smiled as my prediction was right. He smiled back and leaned down again to kiss me. We were still walking but were deepening our kiss. From what I could remember before we kissed, we were near his dorm. He led me to his door and my back was pressing against it as he was reaching for his keys without taking his lips away from mine.
"We. Can. Stop. You know?" I said between kissing. He put one hand on my face and I felt him wiggling the door knob. I assumed that he found the keys. His hand went from my face to my waist and he slowly lifted up his hand into under my shirt. I suddenly carried butterflies in my stomach. Suddenly I felt the wall that I was leaning on disappear and I fell backwards. My lips were separated from Chase's and I escape a small scream as I fell onto the ground with Chase coming with me. He was on top on me. Chase and I were laughing as our face turned red. It was then I hear a small noise coming from someone. I was still lying on the floor but looked behind me. Michael and Logan were on the couch glancing at us with confused expression. I sighed in humiliation.
"Oh my gosh." I whispered to myself but noticed that Chase heard me. Chase gave me a small smile but got up suddenly and offers his hand. I took it and got up immediately. I put my hand in my hair to fix it as possible. Logan and Michael were still silence and continued to look at us weirdly. Michael had little grin in his look though.
"Hey guys, I didn't know you guys were going to be here." Chase said nervously. I looked at him and found him turning red as he was trying to fix his shirt that was lifted a little. I looked back to the boys.
"I bet you didn't." Michael smiled devilishly at us. I tried hard to not laugh.
"We wanted to play video games." Logan simply said and looked back to the screen and played with his controller.
"Hey! I didn't know you were starting it!" Michael looked back to the screen. After a second it seemed like what happened a few second ago never happened. We sat down on his bed and we watched the boy play video games.
"Now that was embarrassing." Chase sneaked a whisper in my ears. I laughed and nodded my head in agreement.
"Hey are you guys going to senior night?" Michael asked with his eyes still glued on the screen. Both of the boy's body moved in the motion of the video game.
"Senior night?" The event didn't sound familiar to me at all.
"Yeah it basically a beach party, but only for seniors, the whole entire beach is reserved." Michael said excitedly.
"Yeah, so there won't be annoying little freshmen in our way." Logan's eyes match Michael eyes too. "Rumors said that seniors are able to rent a hotel, which means….
"NO D.A's!" Logan and Michael took their eyes off the screen and looked at each other to yell the exciting news. They gave each other high fives and whooped and went back to watching the screen.
"That would be so cool if that was true. Coco can sometimes be a real handful." I rolled at the past memories that we all experience.
"Yeah, we were there." Logan sounded disgusted. I smiled as I could understand why.
"When is it?" Chase asked.
"Cookout starts at six, but we can come any time until 12." Michael answered. Chase and I nodded as we liked the sound of the late time.
"Is Lisa going?" I emphasized Lisa name. Logan suddenly stood up and yelled in victory.
"Man, I told you I was undefeatable. " Logan bragged. Michael looked at him in anger. He stood up and faces him.
"No, unfair, rematch right now. I was completely distracted!" Michael excused. Logan shook his head.
"Oh no, I beat you fair and square. Don't become a sore loser." Logan teased and settles the controller on the table.
"No I am not. You know what I think?" Michael suddenly had a thought.
"And what is that?" Logan crossed his arms against his chest in interest.
"I think you're scared." Logan rolled his eyes as if he knew Michael was going to say something obnoxious. "Yeah that's right, I think you'rescared that I will beat you and ruin your reputation." Michael quoted Logan's reputation.
"Dude that doesn't even make sense, I obviously beat you." Logan pointed at the screen. I looked at Chase and he looked bored as his best friends commonly do this.
"Chicken, bawk, bawk,bawk." I knew this was coming, Michael making animal noises.
"Stop dude." Logan ordered but Michael ignored him.
"Bawk, bawk, bawk." He continued and even flipped his wings to emphasize it.
"Michael stop! I won fair and squared and you know it." Logan pointed.
"Logan's a chicken, bawk bawk." he walked up to us. "Did you know Logan's a chicken?" Michael teased. Logan sighed in frustration.
"Fine! You want a rematch? I'll give you a rematch." Logan gave up. Michael cheered and picked up his controller.
"Let's do this." Michael deepened his voice.
"No, no rematch tonight, I promised Quinn that I will hang with her since I didn't all week cause this game. " Logan turned off the television. Michael jaw dropped as if his heart was broken. Logan looked at him in pathetic.
"Aww Michael it's going to be okay." Chase comforts him.
"Why can't you hang out with her at senior night, that's what I'm doing with Lisa?" I nodded my head as he finally answered my question from a while ago.
"Because, I am a good boyfriend." Logan pointed at himself. I choked out a laugh. Logan gave men a death stare. I silent myself immediately and looked away.
"Well, Chase do you want to play?" Michael grabbed Logan's controller and handed to Chase. Chase glanced at it and then looked up at me.
"Well, I, I was actually going to hang with Zoey." Michael seems unsurprised. I suddenly felt bad.
"Wow I've been ditched by my friends over some girls. "Michael sounded hurt, but was alert. " No offense Zoey." He tries to recover. I shook my head.
"It's fine Michael." I assured.
"Dude, I played this game with you all this week. I couldn't even do my homework even if I wanted to. "Logan reminded. Michael rolled his eyes over the familiar words.
"Yeah, Yeah, Yeah" Michael fanned Logan's message away.
"You know what Chase; you can play the game with Michael." I offered. Chase looked at me with a confused expression.
"Yes! Zoey I freaking love you!" Michael turned back on the television. I smiled at him.
"Umm, I thought we were going to hang out?" Chase sounded stunned by the quick change of plans.
"We were, until we heard about the senior night. We can just hang there." I got up and grinned at him.
"Are you sure?" Chase pushed again. I nodded.
"Yes, I can just go back to the dorm and figure out what I going to wear." I winked. He smiled widely. I gave him a peak on the lips.
"Well, I'm going to go to." Logan eyes were on his phone but he was heading to the door. Logan opened the door. "Bye." He yelled behind. I did the same and they both yelled it back also. I closed the door behind me and walked down the hallway. Logan was good distance ahead of me. It was kind of awkward since Logan and I never really were left alone. Only when we needed to, like when I am tutoring him or for once, when he is tutoring me. We never talked about those days when we actually got along and I considered him as a friend. After pulling the stunt with Quinn's mouse down his pant, he never seem like he want to go back to our new 'friendship'. If he wanted to be like that then I am perfectly fine with that.
Before we were out of the boy's building, I heard Logan growling in frustration. I simply ignored it and continued walking. He suddenly stopped and looked back. When he saw me he seemed a little surprised which is weird since we left at the same time. I kept walking and I was soon ahead of him.
"Zoey." I stopped and looked back. He was right behind me. "I have a question?" I automatically have a huge thick wall up every time I talk to him. I crossed my arms against my chest. He watches me and understood to continue on with his story. "Wait, let's go to the lobby." I looked at him impatiently. Were we really walking on the other side of the building for a question?
"Are you serious Logan?" I asked in disbelief. He didn't answer. He just walked in front of me and led me to the lobby. When we finally got there, he picked one of the high tables and sat down. I sat in front of him and looked at him suspiciously. "What do you want Logan?"
"I want some advice, I want some answers." He simply said. "Do you want something to drink?" He pulled out his wallet. I rolled my eyes.
"No Logan, buying a drink means that we are going to stay here for a long time and I don't have time." I denied the offer. It was obvious that what happened after school was still bothering me.
"I'm sorry, okay?" Logan put back his wallet into his pocket. I stared him in puzzled, not sure what he was apologizing for.
"About?" he sighed and leaned against the chair.
"About what happened earlier, you know after school. I know I was being… a jerk." He rolled his eyes at his 'nickname'. I was sincerely shocked of what I heard. I smiled and begin laughing.
"Wow is Logan Reese really apologizing?" I looked around to see if anyone saw this moment like I did.
"For real Brooks, I need your help." He sounded irritated but there was desperation in it too. I nodded my head as I agree to myself to be mature about this now.
"Okay Logan, what do you need?" I leaned against the table in interest.
"Does Quinn ever talk about me?" He looks at me closely.
"Awww, yeah I guess. She talks about you periodically." I answered. He nodded his head and seemed like he spaced out. "Is there a reason?" he sighed once more.
"If Quinn hasn't already told you, me and her are slowly going to call it an end." My eyes suddenly went wide.
"What? Why? You and her are so cute. I remember last year prom, you announced to everyone that you were in love with her." I reminded.
"Yeah that was last year. I wasn't truly in love with her. I just wanted everyone to know that I cared for her. but things changed. She changed." He whispered the last statement as if he didn't want to say it.
"What do you mean she changed?" I was confused. He put his head in his hands. I never have seen Logan so upset about something before. Except the time when his dad cut him off.
"She freaking changed. She doesn't trust me. She thinks I'm cheating on her and is becoming a brat about it. One day I caught her with Mark and I questioned her and she ignored me and claims that it wasn't my business. Yet, I tell her everything." He explained. I stared at him in interest as I see a different side of him.
"Wow, I didn't know that she was still talking Mark?" He laughed dryly. He didn't say anything but shakes his head. "I really believe Quinn really loves you, I mean, it's Quinn for crying out loud!"
"Yeah, that's what I thought." He pulled out his phone. He glanced at it and rolled his eyes. "Crap, I got to go. She's waiting for me. He put his phone back in his pocket.
"I feel bad, I didn't really help you." I watched as he got down his sit. He shrugged.
"Its fine, I figure it out. Thanks Brooks." He started to walk off.
"Hey Logan." I called after him. He turned around to look at me. "Be happy okay? Relationship is not worth it if you're not happy." He thought about it and then nodded in consideration. He smiled then turned around and walked away.
