Previous Chapter Recap...

"Zoey, if you want to cry, cry," Nicole said. "I'm sorry about what I said."

"No Nicole, don't be sorry. I should be the one who's sorry, and I am."

"Okay. Now, that's settled. Quinn, Dana, its okay to come in now".

"Hey, Zo," Quinn and Dana said together. "We're sorry".

"Don't be. Like I told Nicole, I should be the one who's sorry."

"Okay, I see that everything's under control. Maria, come upstairs right now! I have to go to work guys, so I'll see you at 5:30?" Nicole said.

"Yep, bye Nicole," Zoey, Quinn and Dana said in unison.

"Bye….oh and cheer up Zoey. We've got a plan to make everything better. Don't worry," Nicole said on her way out.

Zoey's face went from a small smile, to a completely scared face. They've got a plan to make everything better? Great…..

"Okay, so what's the plan, guys," Zoey asked as soon as Nicole left.

"Ah, we can't tell you until Nicole gets back. Now, let's get everything cleaned up here," Dana said.

Dana, Zoey, Quinn and Maria spent the entire day cleaning Nicole's room after the "party" the previous night and playing board games. Since the four of them were extremely busy, they didn't realize that the time had flown by and it was already 5:30.

"Hey guys. Thanks for cleaning my room. You totally didn't have to!," Nicole said.

"Ahh, it wasn't a big deal at all. We're happy to help, besides, it was our fault," Quinn said.

"Well, I guess we should tell Zoe the plan now, shouldn't we guys," Nicole said.

"Yep," agreed Dana and Quinn.

"What is it guys," Zoey said as she sat down on the window seat.

I don't want to know their plan. I don't want their help. I just want to go home and be by myself until school starts again. I'll think of a plan on my own. A stubborn Zoey thought.

"Well…," Dana began, nervously.

"…we managed to convince Chase, Michael and Logan to come down to Kansas to not only come solve this rift between you and Chase, but to also have a mini-P.C.A. reunioun!," Nicole finished for Dana.

"YOU DID WHAT?," Zoey shouted. "YOU INVITED THE GUYS OVER? I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU GUYS WOULD DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT! I'M NOT STAYING HERE, YOU HERE ME? I'M GOING HOME AND I'M NEVER GOING TO SPEAK TO THE THREE OF YOU AGAIN!"

"Zoey…you can't leave, you can't," Quinn said quietly.

"I can do what I want! Right now, I want to leave and that's what I'm going to do," Zoey said.

"Dana, you said this would work," Nicole whispered to her.

"I thought it would," she whispered back.

Dana, Quinn and Nicole just watched Zoey as she left the room to go tell Nicole's parents that she wanted to go home. As she was gone from the room, the girls tried to put together another plan, but came out unsuccessful. However, they did decide that they weren't going to talk to Zoey for the time being.

Dear Journal,

I thought that there would be nothing in this world that could tare my best friends and me apart. I was clearly mistaken. Dana, Nicole, Quinn and I are never going to be friends again! They decided that the only way of getting Chase and I to at least talk again was to bring the guys here, to Kansas. When I heard that, I completely freaked! Why I freaked, you may ask. Well, I'll tell you. It's because I'm not ready to talk to Chase. If I want to talk to him, I will, out of my own freewill. I don't want somebody else to make me talk to him. I still have to figure out my true feelings for him and also what I'm going to say to him when I do want to talk to him again and knowing Chase, he isn't going to buy some made-up crap. It NEEDS to come from the heart and that's final. Well, until tomorrow, Journal.

Bye,

--Zoey.

That night was a quiet one at the Bristow household. Zoey, Dana, Nicole, and Quinn didn't say a word to each other the entire night. They all decided that it wouldn't be right to talk to one another. They all just needed to calm down and think the night's events through with a clear mind. But, would it work for these four "former best friends"?
