Chase's plan
Zoey said "Lola just tell Logan that I don't want to talk. I'm really tired and should just go to bed."
Lola said "Zoey everything's going to be ok. Just get some sleep you'll feel better in the morning goodnight."
Zoey hung up and fell asleep. Logan's plane had just landed he wiped the sleep from his eyes and grabbed his bags. He took a cab to PCA and banged on Chase's dorm room door. James answered it and said "where's everybody else? Well never mind that it's late at night lets just get some sleep."
Logan said "I can sleep in the lounge if you want."
James said "no sleep in the bunk bed I'll sleep on the bottom you can have the top."
James said "we won't wake him if we just go to sleep now."
Logan said "alright if you're absolutely sure."
James asked "why are you back by yourself? You and Quinn aren't fighting are you?"
Logan said "we're not fighting I thought I could fix things between Chase Zoey. Wait how you know about me and Quinn?"
James said "I just took a guess you wouldn't have been fighting more than normal if you weren't in love with her."
Logan said "hey is Chase ok I know how close he and Zoey were."
James said "I don't know but he hates me. He got upset and said I stole her from him. Then he went back to the dorm room."
Logan said "is Zoey ok or did you just try to talk to Chase? Zoey tends to force a smile on her face when she's in front of friends but she cries when she's alone."
James said "Zoey asked me to be her boyfriend again. I didn't know what to say so I said I needed to go for a walk."
Logan said "James what ever you do don't say yes! She and Chase are in love more you and I could ever understand."
James sat down on the bottom bunk. He said "if Zoey doesn't love me then why did she ask me to be her boyfriend?"
Logan said "the only one of us who can answer that is Zoey. In the morning go talk to her. I'll go talk to Chase. Then both of us can talk to them together."
James sighed and said "Chase won't look at her. I heard him crying by the lake."
Logan said "let Chase get some sleep. When he wakes up he'll want to talk to Zoey."
James turned out the lights and went to sleep. In the morning Chase saw Logan and said "Logan what are you doing here? I'm not really in the mood to talk to anybody. If you want to know why speak to Zoey."
Chase put his head in his hands and tried not to cry. Logan said "you and Zoey have been through so much together. It would be stupid to ignore and throw all of your feelings for her away. I understand that you're upset but Zoey loves you very much and would have explained why she gave back the ring if you didn't run away from her."
Chase said "I probably made her feel worse about giving me back the ring when I ran away. I wouldn't blame her if she never wanted to see me again."
After Chase had finished speaking he started to cry. Logan said "Chase this isn't over yet. Zoey is probably in her dorm room feeling the same way you do right now. The only way to find out is by talking to Zoey. Tell me exactly what happened when you came back."
Chase told Logan everything. Once Chase finished speaking Logan said "She asked for more time before you two got married. That doesn't that she's not in love with you. That means that you mean more to her then ever because she wants to make sure that marriage is what both of you really want."
Chase said "if she felt that way she wouldn't have given me back the ring. I want her to prove that she loves me. Logan do you remember how you felt when you thought Quinn was dead?"
Logan said "how could I forget. I was scared and wanted to tell her how much I loved her. What does this have to do with Zoey Chase?"
Chase said "I think that if I pretend to be dead Zoey will admit that she loves me."
Logan said "Chase you fuzzy hard headed moron! Pretending to be dead is the worst thing you could do!"
Chase stared at Logan and asked "what's wrong with it? Zoey needs to show that she loves me before I even think about forgiving her for this."
Logan said "remember how upset she was when she thought Quinn and Lola were dead. She cried for three hours. They are just her roommates imagine if something happened to you she'd be a mess and cry for days. When she finds out you were faking it she's going to rip you to pieces and never speak to you again. It's much safer to talk to Zoey and tell her how you feel."
Chase said "since when do you care about how someone else feels. I'm not talking to Zoey or anyone else until she says that she's in love with me!"
Just then Zoey came into the boy's dorm. Her eyes were red but she had a smile on her face. She spoke softly "Chase You didn't even let me explain why I gave the ring back. You just ran off. I gave it back because I love you too much to risk ruining our friendship."
Chase turned away from Zoey. Zoey ran from the room crying. James saw her in the hallway and pulled her close to him. He said "Zoey what's wrong? You were ok when you went to talk to Chase."
Zoey sobbed "he won't even look at me! You said that if I told him why I gave him back the ring he'd understand. I love him that's why I gave it back because I wasn't ready and didn't want to hurt him. Now I've lost him as both a boyfriend and a best friend. I can't stand it James I need him please help me!"
James said "Zoey he'll calm down. He loves you. That's why I think you and I should just be friends."
Zoey said "ok James you're probably right. I just want Chase to say that he still loves me and I'm still his best friend."
Meanwhile Chase's mother was sitting in a chair holding Ann. She wiped the sweat off Ann's face with a damp cloth and called Chase's cell phone. Chase answered his phone and said "mom is everything alright? You seem worried. Are Ann and Rose ok? His mom said "Rose is fine but Ann is sick. We haven't heard from you in two days. Are you alright Chase?"
Chase said "mom what's wrong with Ann?" His mom said "she's just got a high fever. I'm taking her to the doctor in the morning. The reason I called is Ann wanted to hear the song you came up with just for her."
Chase said "mom I'm not in the mood to sing right now. Tell Ann I hope she feels better goodnight."
Chase hung up put his head in his hands and cried. He realized that he needed Zoey and was going to make her prove that she loved him. He set up everything and sent Zoey a text message telling her to meet him in the lounge.
Meanwhile Michael, Quinn, Lola got off the plane and took a taxi to PCA. When they got to the school Quinn said "I can't wait to see Logan I love him so much!"
Michael said "Quinn Logan said that getting Chase and Zoey back together was going to take time. Just let him come to us. I really hope that he can fix things between Zoey and Chase because I afraid that he might do something crazy if he can't be with Zoey."
Quinn said "Lola's right Michael but you might be right too that's why we need to talk to him right away."
Zoey got Chase's text message and ran to the lounge. She walked towards Chase who was laying face first on the couch. She blinked when she stepped in something sticky and red. She got closer to Chase and touched his arm. When Chase didn't move Zoey rolled him over. Zoey panicked when she saw blood on his face and shirt. She dialed 911 and sat beside Chase tears rolling down her cheeks.
