Why Did I Tell Him

Disclaimer: I don't own the people used in this story.

Dana's POV

We all rode back in a big van taxi. I needed a window seat. There is something about it that helps me calm my nerves. So I made up a lie about me being car sick if I don't have a window seat. I don't now if that makes any sense as if they notice to care. It seemed like all my friends are down each other throats. There are two large seats that hold up to four people each. So the seating order is Zoey next to Chase; Chase next to Eric; Eric next to Logan; the path to the door. The second seat is Lola next to Michael; Michael next to Nicole, Nicole next to me. Then the window.

These teacher are taking forever to start the car. I look straight to find Logan staring at me so I change my glance to the window. Maybe that is why the window seat is a good place to sit. I rest my tired head on the glass. Why did I tell him what I did.

"What bad guy you like?" Logan him asked me.

"I ain't telling," I told him.

"Fine. I am happy and all that you open up to me but why me?"

"I guess because you are the only one who knows how to put me in my place," I told him while inching to his face.

I pulled back laughing. I do that when I am nervous. He got up and helped me up. We walked together. I had my arm around his shoulder walking with one leg. Then we saw our friends running to us. We both stop walking.

I leaned into him. "Alone here with you I felt complete," I said softly.

"Oh my God are you okay?" some one yelled.

I know he didn't have time to respond and that was the way I liked it. I didn't want him to say: I had fun but I like you like that. I would burst into tears on the spot. I may be a tough girl but I am still a girl. A stupid one too. At the time I didn't realize I was telling the school's biggest jerk. I just thought of it as me telling the boy I loved. He is probably going to tell the whole school. I glance to him again.

"Eric switch seats with me," Logan said.

Logan and I had eye contact the whole time him and Eric were switching seats. As soon as his but hit the seat my head was turn to the window.

"Why did you do that?" I asked him stilling looking at the trees though the window.

The car was staring up. Finally we were on our way to PCA.

"Nicole was talking about how happy she is that her and Eric are going out. I really didn't want to sit there and listen to that. So I guess since he is her boyfriend he should suffer," Logan explained.

I felt his eyes on my the back of my neck the whole time and it was quite uncomfortable. I turn my head to see Nicole and Eric making out.

"Doesn't look like Eric is going o have to sit though Nicole talking," I said.

Logan looked at them afterward laughing. It is weird how Nicole is dating one of the cutest guys in PCA and so am I. What I am not dating Logan Resse. God why do have to punish me by making me like such an ass. Truth is Logan really wasn't an ass. He had proved that yesterday and today.

"Look I don't want you telling no one what happen yesterday or today," I whispered harshly.

"Fine, okay," he said.

I looked down wondering why I would doubt him if I really did love him. His fingers were crossed. I wanted to take his fingers and break them off his strong hands.

"Logan why are you fingers crossed," I asked him.

I looked at him even though I didn't look into those sexy eyes of his. Then I wouldn't be able to control myself. God what is wrong with me.

"What? Oh they just went like that," he said.

"Really," I said sarcastically.

I was trying not to put on the show. The girls already think that something happen in that forest while I told them nothing of the sort did.

"Logan promise me," I begged.

"Why can't you just threaten me like always?" he asked.

"I know that a threat isn't going to stop you. If you promise me I know that is your word," I told him.

"When have I ever kept my word?" he asked me.

"Well I don't know when you broke your word but to me you have always kept it. You have never let me down," I said in a flirting tone.

"True," Logan said turning from me to face Chase.

"Why can't you kept you word to me now. Are you going to tell the whole school?" I asked him rudely.

"No never that. Just you wouldn't understand. Like if I asked to tell no one of this conversation or what happen you would go tell your friend anyway. Right?" he asked.

"No. If I don't want you friends to know that means I didn't want my friends to know. If I was to tell Zoey, Nicole, and Lola what happen they would tell their boyfriends and in a matter of 3 hours your friends would know. If you do the same and tell your friends they are going to tell my friends then they came and rush me with question and memories that I rather not deal with," I told him very quick and low.

"True. So promise not to tell my friend," Logan said.

"Deal," I said.

I sat in the car ride thinking how life is going to be like at PCA. How Logan going to act with me. Those pictures! The ones for sexiest couple and sexiest girl of the year for our grade. What is everyone going to think when they see me and Logan together? I am already going to have a weird time with just seeing him in school. You have to vote for the picture tomorrow in homeroom Maybe I come just skip school because I am coming down with a 'bad headache'. I really want to know if Logan and me win. God that would mean he would have to take me to the end of the year party which I really have no problem with. God I think I am on drugs

I guess I like Logan so much because he is like everything I like in a boy. He is Mr. Cool with the attitude and the latest tends. Then he is a Bad Boy acting tough and big. He is also a Jock that looks so good in his baseball or basketball or the lacrosse outfit. Then when he wants you he is Mr. Romantic he says everything a girl needs to hear to get sweep off her feet. He is the perfect boy for me. Now I wonder how can I be the perfect girl for him.

I let out a sigh. Logan looked at me. The car suddenly stopped.

"We are here," one of the teacher yelled to us.

"Good," I shouted back and moved my head from Logan's eyes.

I know I needed to be out of that car.

"Listen I am going back to the room and taking a bubble bath then sleeping if anyone messes with me they are dead.," I told them.

As soon as the door form the van open I jumped out.

I took my bath already and was laying down in bed. It was about 3 o'clock. I had the curtain drawn so the sunlight didn't come in. My eyes were close and I was tired but my body didn't want to sleep. I had no problem with the time because I have fallen asleep at this time so mainly times already just this month. After school sometimes i need a nap.

"God!" I yelled out.

I threw a pillow in my face as I laid down on my back. I pushed my face into the pillow screaming while I kicked the bed under me. I thought about how I almost let Logan see me cry. How Logan broke the walls that I was safely hidden beneath my heart. I just burst out in tears. I know I have been holding them in for so long. Logan, that jerk, had to bring that out from my dry eyes. I stood like that for a while. Then I just laid there not moving, barley breathing or making a sound thinking of the things that had happen. I had people at the door. So I quickly faced the wall as I close my eyes shut.

"She looks peaceful while she sleeps," I heard Eric say.

"I know. I just want to grab my purse and get out of her. Then she won't be so peaceful but crazy," Nicole said.

Eric laughed.

"You know I just wish Logan and her wouldn't get together already," Eric said.

I smiled at this. I wish we would just together, too.

"I feel bad because now all the girls have someone and Dana will be left out. You think after spending so much time with spending so much time with Logan you think something would have happened," Nicole said.

"Yea I just soon they will before the end of the year," Eric whispered or is it seemed like it.

"The end of the year is here in three weeks," Nicole finished off with a slam of the door. "But then in the car I heard them talking. I got. . ." her voice trailed off.

I guess Nicole and Eric make a good couple because they talk about stuff they don't know.

They were right the end of the year was here and I was going to finish it off with a big bang. Just right after my nap. I gave a really long big yawn. I wonder what I am going to wear to school tomorrow. I want people to vote for and Logan so we should match. I guess I find out later what he is going to wear. I drifted off to a deep sleep thinking about Logan and me at that end of the year dance.
