Ok, this is my first attempt at Zoey fanfic, ok? So don't be harsh. I'm still planning things as I go, so any help would be appreciated. Ok, so here is my fic: Cousin equals Chaos…

Chapter 1 – The late night visit

Narrator's point of view…

Room 101 was completely dark. All three roomies were fast asleep. The clock on the dresser beside Zoey's bed read 3:15 AM. Crickets chirped, and snores erupted slowly from the top bunk at the side of the room. A loud 'thump' came from the other side of the room door. Then loud knocks banged against the door, along with a 'huff' of exhaustion.

Zoey turned over in her bed, trying to ignore it, thinking it was only part of her dream. Again someone banged against the door. Zoey sat up in the darkness, woken up from her sleep. Both Nicole, and Dana were fast asleep, as of they heard nothing. Zoey blinked, yawned and stretched. Again, someone knocked.

Zoey pushed her feet into her fluffy slippers, and wrapped her robe around her tank top and flannel pants. She slowly shuffled to the door, and turned the knob. A girl stood in the doorway. She was tall and slender with long dirty-blond-brown hair hanging on her shoulders. Her hazel eyes twinkled with excitement, and she bit down on her lip, nervously. She had on an aqua-green tank top, a white sweater showing her stomach and belly button, tan cargo pants, and strapy no-nonsense sandals.

The girl threw her arms around Zoey and embraced her warmly. She screamed in delight, and squeezed Zoey tighter.

"Zoey! Zoey! Zoey! Ohmygod! I can't believe this is little Zoey! Where's Dustin? How's dorm life? Do you have a boy friend yet?"

Zoey's eyes opened, and she screamed, squeezing the girl closer. "Becky! Becky! Cuz, how'd you get here? My god! How did you get here from F L?"

Both girls jumped up and down, screaming, and hugging each other. Dana and Nicole soon appeared in the door way, with questioning looks.

"Oh, um, did we wake you up?"

"Uh, yea! I need my beauty sleep, and not to be woken up at three am by screaming beauties! And, I don't even know her." Dana snapped, and rolled her eyes

"Yea! Who is she, Zoe? Who is she? Who is she?" Nicole looked like she was about to jump up and down, then collapse from excitement.

"Nicole, Dana, this is my cousin Rebecca 'Becky'. Beck, these are my roommates, Dana and Nicole. Guys, Becky is going to be staying for the semester, because she is trying to convince her dad to let her go to a boarding school. So, here's the new roomie!

Nicole screamed and hugged her new roommate, squeezing Rebecca as if her life depended on it. Dana's eyes rolled. Zoey smiled, seeing how pleased Nicole was.

"Nicole, is it? Could you please let me breath, if you don't mind?" Rebecca managed to choke out, with her limited air.

Nicole quickly let go. Dana dragged her back into the room. Zoey, and Rebecca just watched a struggling Dana try to bring Nicole back into the room, bursting out in giggles once they had gotten out of the hallway. Zoey hugged her cousin again.

"I need to get back to bed. It's three AM. So, why don't you explore a little? Here's my key. You can see Dustin tomorrow, kay?"

"Thanks, Zoe. I'll be back at six, to unpack. I'll just head down to the beach that I saw on the way here. Night, cuz."

"Night."

Zoey went back into the room, slamming the door behind her and leaving Rebecca in the hallway, alone. Rebecca pushed her bags against the wall, and pulled the key around her neck. She started walking down the hall, daydreaming about what will happen in the next two and a half months. She was so into her daydreams she ran into a guy that was walking down the hall and both people on the floor.

"Hey! This is a boys-only zone!"

She looked over at the guys she ran into, noticing his chocolate brown eyes, and this flirty trademark smile. He was dressed in a sweatshirt and baggy pants. Telling by they way he had run into her, she could tell he was sneaking back in. He smiled at her and helped her to her feet.

"Too cute, I've never seen you here. You must be in the wrong school, because you see too hot to belong here."

Pink started to flush into Rebecca's cheeks. "I'm visiting. I'm Zoey's cousin, Rebecca. I just got in. Who are you?"

"I'm Logan. The thing I would like to know is, how can someone as hot as you is related to Brooks?"

"I am a Brooks…"

"Oh, right. Sorry, about that." Logan rubbed the back of his head, staring at Rebecca. "Well, where are you going at three in the morning?"

"Out. It's six am in Florida, and I'm usually up. So, here I am, exploring the campus and trying to find the beach I passed on the way here."

"You want an escort?" Logan held out his hand. She just noticed he had switched a blanket that he held in his hand to under his arm.

"Sure, but aren't you tired?"

"Nah. I slept already. Come on, I'll take you to the beach."

Hesitantly, Rebecca took Logan's hand. He gave her another trademark smile, and led her town the hall. Rebecca's heart sped up a bit, her palms sweating and growing damp. She followed him, almost blindly, through the hallway.

Soon enough, they had gone down the stairs, through the front door and out to the beach down the hill. They ran through the grass on the moon lit grounds by a full moon. The star glistened in the distance. The sound of the crashing waves floated through Rebecca's ears. So, this was California…

Rebecca settled herself on sand. Logan followed the suit, and pulled the blanket from under his arm. He put it over Rebecca's shoulders. When Rebecca felt Logan's arm fall on her shoulders, she shivered. He was going a bit fast, but she didn't mind. She put her face into his shirt, and inhaled his sent. The scent was addictive, a mix of coconut and sea breeze.

She laid her head on his shoulder, closing her eyes slowly. Logan laid his head on hers. His eyes closed, too. And soon enough, both of them were sound asleep, cuddling close to each other.

Well, here's the first chapter. I am not sure who Rebecca, Zoey, or Dana is going to end up with. I'm still working it out. I will probably have you guys decide who goes with who. In the next chapter, Rebecca meets someone very familiar. Please R&R and tell me what you think…
