Description: this is a story that I'm currently in the midst of writing. Its a C/Z/L triangle and my first love triangle at that. It just came to me one night in my sleep. I figured that i would put it up and see if it attracted attention from anyone. You know what to do, R&R. Comments and suggestions are always welcomed.
Disclaimer: I don't own Zoey 101, but if i did there would be more conflict and love triangles.
Authors note: is only my fourth Zoey 101 story, so I'm still kinda new at writing these. Please let me know what you think, I'd love to know. )
Chapter #4
(Zoey's pov)
" Chase? ...Chase, are you ok?", i ask with concern when he doesn't respond to me right away. He has this lost look in his eyes. And i can't for the life of me figure out why. What could he possibly be thinking about? I hope that he's not mad with me. Its not as though i told Glenn that i'd go on the date with him. I haven't even answered him. And truth be told, I'm not even all that sure that i want to. I know how much Chase hates that guy.
" what? Sorry, i must have zoned out Zoe.", he mumbles with a far away look in his eyes. Wow, i have to admit. I never thought that he would be this upset. Well, ok i had a feeling that he would. But i never would have guessed that he would take it this badly. He looks so torn at that fact I'm even considering saying yes.
(Chase's pov)
" i just...it would be really nice to have a boyfriend at times Chase. You know? I'm..I'm lonely.", says Zoey quietly as she glances up at me sadly. It really kills me to see her like this. Could Zoey really want to go on a date with this jerk? He's not even her type! ...is he? ...No, he couldn't be. And Glenn Davis? Of all guys, why him? What could she possibly see in that guy?
" how could you be lonely when you have me Zoe? I'm good company.", i point out rather offended by her comment. She's lonely? How? We hangout nearly everyday and Zoey says that she's lonely? Whats that about? I'm fairly good company. And, I'm also a descent guy. Why can't she see that?
Smiling up at me, Zoey grabs my hand. Placing a kiss on my bare chest, i watch as she sighs sadly," yeah, i know. But we're just friends."
" you cut me deep Zoe, that hurt.", i grumble in an apparent grumpy mood. Rub it in my face why don't you? Friendship is the last thing on my mind. How is it that everyone but Zoey can see that i want more then friendship with her except Zoey herself? Is the girl that dense?
" come on, don't go sour puss on me Chase. You know what i meant.", mumbles Zoey as she nuzzles herself into my arms. Sighing to myself, i stare up at the ceiling. So its ok for me to have her in my arms, but i can't be with her? What kind of a just god are you?
" look, Zoey. Don't say yes to this guy, just to have a boyfriend.", i reluctantly advice. Even though I'd rather her not say yes at all. To any guy. Any guy except me that is. If i ever get the guts to ask her out. I know one thing, if she turns down Glenn? ...Thats when I'm going to make my move. I can't wait much longer.
(Zoey's pov)
" i won't, i promise Chase." , i confide quietly as i settle down into his arms. Glancing up at chase, i can't help but smile up at him. I guess he really does care about me. I've always known that he has. But never knew exactly how much until just now. He's never really liked Glenn Davis, and I'm not all that sure why. But something tells me that if i were to say yes to him? That him and Chase wouldn't exactly become the best of friends. Maybe Chase is right, maybe i should hold off on dating. I don't want to say yes to Glenn for the wrong reasons. It wouldn't be right or very fair.
Placing an arm snuggly around my waist, Chase pulls me against him. Sighing in content as i lay my head on his chest once more, he stares down at me with content once more," good, because you shouldn't Zoe. You know? You might regret it later."
" yeah, i know what your saying Chase. And thanks.", i say with a chuckle as i peck at the side of his cheek. With a goofy grin he returns the gesture, but not before blushing a bright red. Why is that Chase almost always blushes after i kiss him? Not that i don't find it completely cute. I just thought that he would be use to it by now. We've been friends for how long? ...
