Zoey was hanging out with Quinn and Lola in their dorm as she felt a vibration in her pocket.
She took out her phone and read a text message out loud: "Meet me on the boy's roof as soon as you can. I have to tell you something, finally."
"Finally? What did he mean by finally?" Zoey asked curiously.
Quinn and Lola eyed each other cause they new what it meant.
"I don't know, maybe you should go and find out," Lola said.
"Okay," she told them and met up with Chase.
"Hey, um, Zoe, can you sit down for this?" Chase asked.
They sat down next to each other. It was silent for a while, til Zoey spoke up.
"So,...what'd you wanna talk about?" Zoey asked.
"Oh, yeah, I forgot that I had to tell you, um," Chase stuttered.
"Just tell me what it is, Chase."
Chase closed his eyes tight and said," I like you, and I've liked you for a while now, ever since I saw you for the first time as I fell off my bike, and I never stopped liking you, and I hope you feel the same way, cause that'd be really cool if you did like me, so tell me, do you have feelings for me, too?" Chase breathed deeply after finishing that one breath sentence of his.
"No."
"Feel free to take your time," Chase said with his eyes still closed.
"No."
Chase's eyes were still closed. "Riiiight now!" he motioned for her to answer.
Zoey sat there quietly.
Chase peeked behind his closed eyes. "Yea, Zoe," he scratched his bushy head," you can answer now," he said hopefully.
"Wait, you said no?" Chase asked as if he was shot down by the girl of his dreams, which in this case, was this case.
Zoey took a deep breath, then scooted her chair to sit face to face with Chase.
"Chase, you are my best guy friend. Actually you're my best friend period. I know so much about you, that I think I would've known if you liked anyone. I've known that you liked me for a while now, so-"
"Wait, you've known this whole time?" Chase asked.
"Yea, just listen. It's really hard for me to say this, so just ask me again," Zoey said.
"Ask you what?" Chase was really confused now.
"Ask me if I have feelings for you?"
"Zoey, do you have feelings for me?" Chase asked again.
Zoey hesitated answer him this time. When she said no earlier he didn't here it, but this time he probably would. But saying yes would make him the happiest guy in the academy. "Just look at him," she thought to herself, "I don't think I should do this to him, but I have to, for his own good.
So, I'll say":
