Chapter 3:
A/N: Chapter 3!! Hope you like it! This was probably my favorite chapter to write…so far.

It's been two hours. Surely Miley is back from wherever she went that was "not important". I went back to her dorm room, but she wasn't back yet. Where could she be? It was dark outside now. How could she be out this late? It's almost past PCA's curfew. I walked out of the dorm building, and as soon as I did, there she was. She got out of a limo. Why does she have a limo, I mean, no offense, but, not a lot of people at PCA are as rich as me. Wherever she went, it sure was important, or fancy.
"Hey, Miley." I didn't want to scare her, but I had to talk to her.
"Oh, um hey Logan. Wha…what are you doing here?" She seemed nervous.
"Um remember you were gonna help me earlier? Why do you have those huge bags? Where did you go anyways?"
"I really can't talk about it right now. It's just nothing, okay?"
"Miley, are you okay? You look like you're trying to hide something."
"Logan I'm fine. Just stay out of it." Even though I hadn't known her that long, I could tell she was upset. She had never gotten like a tone in her voice before now.
"Hey, Miles, you forgot this in the limo." It was some kid. Who was he? Was he her boyfriend? How come she hadn't mentioned him? He brought her a bag with something in it. It was a plastic bag, it looked like some type of string or fabric, or something was inside it. Why would she want that?
"Thanks Jackson. Um, Logan, this is my brother, Jackson. Jackson-Logan."
"Nice to meet you Jackson." I had to be nice. But did she honestly think I was gonna believe that was her brother? Puh-lease.
"See ya later." Jackson hugged Miley, and then went back to the limo.
"Your brother, huh?"
"Yupp. Um do you mind if we talk about this tomorrow? I am really tired. I had a really big day today." Moving to PCA isn't that big.
"Um, yeah, cause it's hard to move here to PCA." I didn't know what to say.
"What? Oh, PCA, yeah, it's a big move. Um I'll see you tomorrow." She did seem exhausted. I wonder where she went? I do like Miley-as a friend of course, so I guess I'll respect her privacy.
The next day was when our classes started. Everyone had new pencils, new notebooks, and some people even got a new jet-x. I, of course, don't need one anymore because I have my 327,000 car.
My first class for the day was chemistry-my best subject. I went into the classroom to find Chase sitting with Michael and Vince. The only seat left was one with my name on it. Wait, why is my seat the only one with a name on it, and how come it's my name? Maybe my teacher from last year told my teacher this year how good I was and she or he probably wants me to sit in the front.
I went to my seat, not even noticing who was sitting beside me…Rico.
"Hey Roomy!" He did his devilish laugh again.
"Did you put my name on this seat?" I knew it was him.
"Yup. I figured you would want to sit by me because well, all the girls love me."
"Um, in case you haven't noticed, girls are all over me." They were. Well, not since they all know I have Quinn, but they still like me.
"Yeah, I didn't really notice. In case you didn't notice, the reason you haven't been getting any babes lately is because you have a little competition." What was he talking about?
"Oh yeah? And who is that?" I had no competition. I was by far, the hottest guy here.
"Me." Him?
"You?"
"Be quiet, Rico." It was Miley. How did she know Rico?
"Hey Miley." She looked nice for the first day of school, but then again, a lot of girls dress up so they can become good friends with the guys.
"Hey. Um is it okay if I sit here?" Of course it was okay. If I have to sit by Rico, I at least want to sit by someone I like-well not like, but like as a friend you know?
"Yeah, totally."
"Okay, class, for the first week here of chemistry, I am not going to teach anything," people starting cheering and clapping.
"No, no, you don't understand. I won't be teaching anything because you will be teaching each other. For the first week, you will be paired off with someone and you will teach and remind each other of everything you learned last year in chemistry, and a week from today, you will have a test over the things you should have learned. Every other person look to your left. That is your partner. Good luck and get started."
This was not going to be a fun project. But at least I am good at chemistry.
I looked to my right. Miley. She would be fun to work with.
"Um, excuse me teach. I am on the end, so I am on nobody's left. Who is my partner, not that I need one but if I get graded with a partner, I need one." Rico is just trying to suck up to the teacher, I can tell.
"Um, oh gosh, it seems we are one short. Oh well, you can work with Logan and Miley." NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
There is no way Rico is working with us.
"You don't mind Logan, do you?" OF COURSE I MIND. Rico is doing this to me on purpose, I could tell.
"No, I don't care." He better help me get a good grade though.
After school, Miley and I planned to go to Sushi Rox to work on the project. We told Rico to come, but he said he knew everything there was to know about chemistry so he didn't need us. I, of course, didn't need help either, but I could tell Miley was stressing about it, so I knew I should help her.
"So they didn't have chemistry in Malibu?" I had no idea how she didn't know some of this.
"Well, kind of. We had…" She was cut off by her cell phone ringing.
"Oh um, can you excuse me for a second I have to take this." She went a little ways from the table. I could kind of hear what she was saying…not that I was listening. I was just…oh who am I kidding, I was eavesdropping. I had to though. Miley is my friend, so if she is going through something I should help her with it, like how she is helping me with Quinn.
"Really? That's great! Oh my gosh, I can't wait. I don't know what to wear. I have to pick out something. I can't believe I am going to present the awa…" her voice faded off. She must have known I was listening because she kept looking at the table. What was she going to present?
"Okay, sorry about that." Yeah right. She was probably waiting for that phone call.
"Oh, it's okay. Um, are you alright?" I had to hint around it somehow.
"What do you mean?" She seemed very confused, like she was hiding something.
"Well, you just seemed really excited when you answered the phone."
"Yeah. So?" She had to know where I was going with this.
"So, if someone is that excited, then you should share your excitement with others. Others like…me." I was getting somewhere.
"Logan it's nothing, okay? Lets just get back to work." She obviously didn't want to tell me about it. Why not? I can keep secrets. Well, some.
"Are you sure? You know you can tell me anything. I mean, if you're hiding something, I can help you." I was just trying to be a good friend.
"Just stay out of it. I really don't want to talk about it with you. It's none of your business anyways. Look, I have to go. I'll see you tomorrow."
"Where do you always have to go?"
"Why are you so interested in where I go? I am just busy. Now, just stay out of it." She practically ran out of Sushi Rox. Apparently I was paying. Something is definitely up with her. I know it's something big, I can feel it.
Just then my phone started ringing. It was Quinn!
"Hey, beautiful. What's up?" I liked to greet her with a compliment; I felt it made her happier to talk to me.
"Hey sweetie. Um listen, I have good news. I guess they are giving me my award on Saturday so I can come see you then. I can't wait." I could tell she was excited. I, of course, was too.
"Oh, well, that's going to be really fun." Saturday. It seemed so far away.
"You don't sound too excited."
"Saturday is like four days away. That seems like forever." It did. I don't know if I can wait that long. I guess if I waited all summer, I can wait four days.
"I know, but just work hard at school and the days will fly by. I gotta go, but I'll talk to you soon. Oh, and I love you too. Bye." She is by far the best girlfriend ever. I love her so much.
"Bye."
Saturday…four more days…get to see Quinn…can I wait?
