A/N: Well, I'm back and I've tried to give you guys an extra long chapter to (hopefully) make up for my year long absence (my, has it really been that long?). I will say I have gotten back into the mood of writing "A Rose for Dana," so I hope you will be in the mood to read my work. So, enough with the chatting, on to the show! Enjoy!

Disclaimer: I do not own "Zoey 101" I wish I did.

Previously is "A Rose for Dana"…

"Dana! Dana! Dana! We heard what happened, are you feeling alright," Logan asked when Michael, him and Chase finally caught up with the three girls.

"Yeah, I'm fine, but why do you care, Logan?"

"Well, I'm just a caring sort of guy!"

Everyone scoffed, but especially Dana. "Right, sure you are," Dana continued.

"What!? I am…kinda, sorta…no," Logan tried to defend himself, but it was useless.

"So, what happened exactly, D?" Chase asked as he put his arm around Zoey.

Zoey instantly pushed Chase's arm off of her. She didn't want to rub in the fact that Zoey had a boyfriend and Dana didn't.

"Nothing, it doesn't even matter anymore."

"Sure it does!"

"Where's Quinn, guys," Zoey asked, trying to get the limelight away from Dana.

"I don't know. She's proably-"

"Who the fuck cares," Logan interrupted Chase.

"What's with you?" Nicole asked.

"Nothing! Why do you always have to be so nosy, Nicole. Jeez, you're so annoying!"

Not-so-shocked faces filled the table. Everyone knew Logan would snap at some point, but they never knew that he would snap on Nicole.

"I'm sorry, Nicole," Logan said when he saw her face fall "I shouldn't have said that."

"Whatever, it's fine," Nicole said, trying to hide her tears. She hated it when people called her annoying.

"He's so off my "Hottie list" and "Cute Lip Chart"," Nicole whispered in Zoey's ear.

"But seriously, where's Quinn?" Zoey asked. "She's usually here before us."

"She's probably in her dorm," Michael suggested.

"No, she isn't. When we went to go get her for lunch, she wasn't there."

"Wait, she's over there," Nicole pointed to a large booth with a sign that said "Get Your Writing Analyzed Here" and surely, Quinn was right behind it.

"What is she doing?" Michael wondered aloud.

Zoey, Nicole and Dana all understood what she was doing. But, Michael and Chase didn't have the foggiest idea. As for Logan, he seemed to understand, and he didn't look too happy.

Chapter 6: Fights and Disapperances

Logan instantly got up from his seat and ran towards Quinn before anyone else could catch up. The second he reached Quinn; he grabbed her by the arm and pulled her away from the booth.

"Quinn, what the hell do you think you're doing?" Logan hissed.

"I'm helping Dana, she asked me to!"

"Quinn, I'm not paying you $1,000 to help Dana. You're supposed to throw her off track, not help her solve the mystery!"

"Logan, relax, I've got it all covered," Quinn said as she pushed Logan away

"Whatever. Just don't help her solve this. Don't."

"Logan, calm down…I will lead her elsewhere, throw her off for a bit, but I can't guarantee this is going to last too much longer."

"Why?"

"Quinn!" Dana shouted

"Yeah?" Quinn asked as she walked towards Dana who was standing at the hand-writing booth.

"Have you found anything? How many people have you got? Tell me!" Dana said as she shook Quinn by the shoulders

"Dana! Dana! Stop shaking me this instant!"

Dana coughed. "Sorry, Quinn! Tell me, tell me!"

"Okay, well, we've got 50 samples so far, most of them are people from our grade so that's a good sign. I plan on doing this for the rest of the weekend so we should get a pretty good number by the end."

"Oh Quinn, you're a lifesaver!" Dana said as she wrapped Quinn in a hug.

"Well, thanks. I better get back to work, and you better get back to everyone else, they look really curious."

"Alright. Thanks so much Quinn. I'll come see you at your dorm later. Bye Quinn"

"Bye Dana."

"So, what happened?" Zoey, Nicole, Chase, and Michael asked as Dana sat down in her chair.

"Oh, well, Quinn is doing a hand-writing analysis, but it's really for me. So far she has 50 signatures."

"Hand-writing analysis? What for?" Chase asked

"Um…I got this mysterious package at my door the other day and I don't know who it's from, I asked Quinn if she could help me and she agreed."

"Stupid bitch," Logan muttered under his breath.

"What was that?" Dana asked

"Uh…rapid ditch," Logan said.

"What?"

"Nevermind. I gotta go, I'll see you guys later."

"Bye, Logan." Chase, Michael, Zoey, Dana, and Nicole said as they watched him leave.

"What was that about?" Zoey asked.

"I…don't know," Michael said as he looked at Chase. "We'd better go see if he's okay, come on Chase."

"Yeah, yeah, we'd…um, better go. Bye guys. I'll call you later, Zo."

"Okay, bye. Love you, Chase," Zoey said.

"Love you too, bye" Chase said.

"Mike, are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Chase asked

"I think so…if you're thinking this whole hand-writing analysis has something to do with Logan."

"Exactly, and one, Ms. Cruz?"

"Perhaps. But, he would never admit it, would he?"

A sly smile swept Chase's face. "Not straight up. We have to get Logan to admit it."

"We certainly do, Matthews, we certainly do," Michael said as he rubbed his hands together.

"Okay, just follow my lead," Chase said as he put his hand on the door handle.

"What? Your lead? Dude, you get lost walking to the bathroom. I'll handle this one. Move, Chase" Michael said as he pushed Chase out of the way.

"What are you talking about? I know exactly where the bathroom is!"

"Right, that's why you almost walked into the girls' washroom last week," Michael said as he rolled his eyes.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"Sure you do. I was with you, we were on our way to Media Immersion and you had to pee, you got lost, turn left instead of turning right and almost walked into the girls' washroom."

"I…I was looking for Zoey," Chase said.

"Sure, and I'm Michael Jordan."

"Ugh…you're wrong, Mike. I did not get lost. I was looking for Zoey!"

"Whatever," Michael said as he walked into the dorm room.

"I didn't! I wasn't lost!"

"Whatever you say."

"Why don't you believe me?"

"Are you going to obsess over this like you obsessed over your crazy Jewish afro?"

"Shut up, Michael."

"What?"

"I said shut up. Do not diss the afro. Do not diss me. In fact, don't talk to me!"

"Chase? What the hell's gotten into you?"

"Don't talk to me, alright!" Chase said as he walked back out the door.

"Chase, come back here, I'm sorry!"

"Piss off, Michael!"

Michael walked back into his dorm room and sat down on his bed. "Damn fucker!"

"Dana, I think I've got something," Quinn said as Dana walked into the dorm room.

"Seriously? Quinn, you're amazing!"

Quinn laughed. "I believe it's been rounded down to four people. I think you should sit down for this, Dana."

Dana's face fell. "Quinn, I don't like the sound of that. Is it that bad?"

"It depends on how you look at it. If you look at the situation in a positive way, the four prospects aren't that bad, but if you look at it in a negative way, then the people will be pretty bad."

"Quit stalling and just tell me, Quinn."

"Jeez, alright. Well, it seems to be mostly people our grade, and one other isn't. The first few seem to be, Jake, Parker, and, Logan. The one who isn't in our grade is Dustin."

"What? What do you mean Dustin and Logan?"

"Well, the writing is very similar to that on the letter."

"Man! What the hell am I going to do now?"

"Dana, you're going to eat the chocolate and leave everything to me. Don't worry, it'll work out, I have it covered."

"The chocolate is safe to eat?"

"Yeah. It's pretty good chocolate too."

"Quinn, you had a piece of chocolate?"

"Yeah, five, actually. Science experiments make me hungry."

"Whatever; just give me the chocolate. I have to go to bed, I've got detention tomorrow."

"Alright, here you go. Good luck tomorrow, Dana. I'll do further experiments and as soon as I figure anything out, I'll let you know."

"Thanks so much Quinn. See you tomorrow….wait, didn't you say you're going to do the booth thing all weekend?"

"Uh…yeah, I said that, why?"

"Well, how can you have four prospects already, you're not finished collecting data!"

"I just compared the writing samples, Dana. I'll continue."

"Uh...okay, but as soon as you find something, let me know. Good night, Quinn."

"Night, Dana."

That's weird Dana thought as she left Quinn's room. Why would she already start looking for prospects when she isn't even finished collecting data?

"Hey Dana, what's up?" asked Zoey when she noticed Dana walk in.

"Not much. Quinn said she found four different prospects for my mystery man."

"Already?" Zoey asked.

"Yeah, I thought it was weird too."

"Well, who are they?"

Dana avoided Zoey's eyes. She didn't want to tell Zoey who one of the prospects was.

"Dana? Yoo-hoo, anyone home?" Zoey said as she waved her hand in front of Dana's face. "Space-case? Hello?"

"Huh?" Dana said.

"Who are the prospects?"

"Uh…" Dana began "Jake, Parker, Logan (ew), and…Dustin."

Zoey's eyes widened. "Dustin! My little brother? DUSTIN!"

Dana just shrugged her shoulders.

"I'm going to kill him," Zoey said as she headed for the door.

"Zoey, no, you can't. First, it's after 10:00 P.M., you can't leave the dorm because you'll get in trouble. Secondly, I don't think your parents will appreciate a dead son," Dana said as she held Zoey back.

"Dana, let go of me!"

"Zoey, I can't let you leave. You'll regret it."

"I'm not going to kill my little brother, I'm simply going to talk to him."

"You don't even know if he likes me. This who writing analysis was just a ploy to find out who wrote the letter."

Zoey sighed. "Fine, I'll talk to him in the morning."

"Good. Where's Nicole?"

"She and I had another fight."

"What about?"

"Chase and I were talking and we wanted some privacy, but she wouldn't leave. I told her she'd better move her ass or else I'll move it for her, and then it went all downhill from there."

"What were you and Chase talking about?"

"Well, he and Mike got into a fight and he wanted to know if he could stay over. Nicole also didn't like the sound of that, and as you know, when Nicole doesn't like something, she'll tell you and that's another reason for the fight."

"So, where's Chase now?"

"I don't know. I don't know where anyone is and I'm starting to get worried. Chase said he hasn't seen Logan since this afternoon, Chase is God knows where and same with Nicole. I'm scared, Dana."

"Don't worry, they couldn't have gone too far. If Nicole isn't back by 10:30, we'll call campus security."

"Alright," agreed Zoey.
