Eighteen-year-old Zoey Brooks and her friends were at their last year of PCA. They were kind of sad because they loved PCA and they had so many adventures there. One day, in Mr. Bender's media class, they were learning about how to make movies on a computer.

Just then, a note came on Zoey's desk. When Mr. Bender wasn't looking, Zoey opened the note and read:

Zoey,

Meet me in my room at 8:00 PM for that… meeting we planned.

Michael

Zoey got very excited. That night, she came to Michael Barret's, Chase Matthews's, and Logan Reese's room and saw Michael standing.

"There you are," said Michael.

"I'm not so sure about if we should do this, Michael," said Zoey, "what if Chase and Logan come back and we get caught?"

"Nyah," said Michael, "I asked Chase and he said that they'll be shooting hoops until ten."

An hour later, Chase and Logan were heading back to their dorm.

"I told you not to have three water bottles while playing basketball and look what happened," said Logan as he saw a wet stain on Chase's pants.

"Hey, you would have brought some water too if you were playing basketball," said Chase.

"Yeah, but I would have brought one bottle," said Logan.

Meanwhile, back in the boys' room, Zoey said, "well, I'd better get going."

"How about one last hug before you go?" asked Michael.

"Well… okay," said Zoey.

Zoey gave Michael a big hug. Then, Chase and Logan saw them hugging. When Zoey and Michael saw Chase and Logan, they stopped hugging.

"Oh, hi," said Zoey.

"Hey," said Michael.

"Hello," said Zoey.

"What are you guys doing here?" asked Chase.

"Nothing," said Zoey, "we're just talking."

"What are you guys doing here?" asked Michael, "I thought Chase told me that you were shooting hoops until ten. And, what in the world happened to your pants, Chase?"

"Well, Chase was on his way to the bathroom and…" said Logan.

"Be quiet," said Chase. It was bad enough Logan embarrasses him a lot. But he did not want to be embarrassed in front of his own girlfriend.

"I thought you were seeing a movie, Michael," said Logan.

"Wait a minute," said Chase, looking confused, "Michael, you told me you were playing foosball with Lola."

"Yeah," said Michael, "I was seeing a movie about a girl named Lola playing foosball. Then, I told Zoey about it."

"Right," said Zoey, "so, you both should see that movie. And now, good night."

She left the room. A few nights later, Chase couldn't sleep because he kept thinking about Zoey and Michael hanging out together a lot and lying to him and their other friends about it. He got up and woke Logan up.

"Logan, get up," said Chase.

"Why?" asked Logan. It wasn't like Chase to wake him up at two o'clock in the morning.

"Just get up and meet me in the girls' lounge in two minutes," said Chase.

Logan got up. Then, Chase woke up Lola and Quinn. After that, they all met up in the girls' lounge.

"All right," said Chase, "I think we all know why I've called you here."

"Yes," said Lola, "to waste our precious beauty sleep time over nothing. Not that Logan needs it."

"No," said Chase, "we're not here to discuss your beauty sleep complaints. We're here to figure out what's going on between Zoey and Michael. Over the past few days, they have been sneaking around and telling us lies. I want to know why."

"Why do you care, Chase?" asked Lola.

"Because, Lola" said Chase, "I'm a caring person. See?"

"Look, Chase," said Quinn, "obviously Zoey and Michael are secretly dating. May we please go back to bed now?"

"Yes," said Lola, "let's go."

"Oh, no you don't," said Chase as Quinn and Lola sat back down, "no one's going anywhere until we figure out what's up. Now, let's conceder the possibilities."

"I think that they're dating," said Logan.

"Dating," said Lola as Quinn just nodded.

"Other possibilities," said Chase.

"I thought Chase and Zoey were boyfriend and girlfriend," said Quinn.

"So did I," said Lola.

"Boyfriend and girlfriend?" asked Chase, acting like he had no idea what Quinn and Lola were talking about, "what do you mean boyfriend and girlfriend? I never had a six year crush on Zoey. Right, Logan?"

"Yes," said Logan, sarcastically, "there was no crush. You silly girls."

"Then why do you care if Zoey and Michael are dating?" asked Lola.

"Zoey's not dating Michael," said Chase, "okay, I've known Zoey since her first day of PCA, and I know she'd never date a guy like Michael."

"Why?" asked Quinn, "he's just like you, only without the physical characteristics."

"True," said Chase, "but Michael is dark, and Zoey is white. They would not make the best couple."

"Okay, then," said Logan, "if Zoey and Michael are spending all this time together and lying to us about it, you tell me what the other explanations are."

"Well, they could…" said Chase, "you know, maybe they… I mean, for all we know… I'm gonna go find out."

He left the lounge.

"You do that," said Lola, "we're going back to bed. Come on. Let's get outta here before Mr. Overreact comes back."

"You've read my mind," said Quinn as she, Lola and Logan went out of the lounge, went back to their dorms and went to back to bed.

The next morning, Chase saw the guys and said, "I talked to Michael, but it didn't help. He just said, 'it's none of your business.' Zoey said the same thing."

"Chase, you just have to accept the fact that Zoey and Michael are dating," said Lola.

"I've already told you," said Chase, "Zoey is not dating Michael."

"Then why else would they spend all of this time together and lie to us about it?" asked Quinn.

"Wait a minute," said Logan, "remember when I tutored Zoey four years ago? Maybe Zoey's tutoring Michael or Michael's tutoring Zoey."

"No," said Chase, "that can't be right, because last week, Zoey and Michael showed them their report cards and Zoey's grades were straight A's and Michael's grades were no lower then a B+. So, there has to be some other explanation. And don't say that they're dating because they're not dating."
