Chapter 4

We got to the club and instantly I wanted to go and dance. It's probably from all those times when I was younger, I used to dance to salsa and hip hop music, and now it's all coming back to me.

Zoey and Nicole found a table right in front of the dance floor, so we all sat down.

"I'm gonna get us some drinks, what do you guys want?" Chase asks. They all tell him what they want.

"Diet coke." I say with a smile.

"Why are you getting that? You're not even close to being fat," Logan says.

I almost smile at his sort-of compliment. He's been acting all nice to me lately and I have no idea why. "Thanks, but when I was younger I was really chubby so I drank diet coke to help with my weight. It's stuck ever since."

"Oh, but still, you're really..." He begins but then stops mid-sentence.

"I'm really what?" I ask, my curiosity getting the best of me.

"Nothing. It's just… never mind." He looks away from me.

I raise my eyebrow at him. "Um. Okay?"

Chase, sensing the tension going on at the table right now decides to make a run for it. "Uh. Yeah, well, I'm going to go get the drinks."

Zoey gets up from her seat, "I'll come with."

They both leave to the bar to go get our non-alcoholic beverages.

Nicole breaks the silence that has fallen upon us. "DANA! Oh my god! Look at all the cute guys here! It's like I've gone to heaven!"

I look around the room. There is a lot of guys here but none of them catch my attention. You know how if you see a cute guy you like; you get butterflies in your stomach?

I don't have that.

"They're alright." I say. I glance over at Logan, who's staring at a girl whose shirt reveals A LOT more than it should.

I hit him. "Get your tongue off the floor."

"Why do you care? Am I sensing some jealousy?" He smirks.

"Oh please, don't flatter yourself, pretty boy. I just think you deserve better than some bimbo like that."

"Really? So who would you count as better? You?" He asks.

My face turns light pink, I cover my hands over my cheeks to hide my blushing. I put my elbows on the table. "NO! Just not some slut."

He smirks mischievously. "So I guess that means you're out of the question?"

I glare at him. "I am not a slut. If anyone at this table is a slut, that would be you. You're the one that flirts with any female that comes in your path."

"Pshh. Do not. The ugly ones, I stay as far away from as possible. They don't get even a passing glance from Logan Reese." He says, cockily.

I roll my eyes at him. "You're so shallow. You only go for looks, why not personality?"

"I'm not the least bit shallow. The looks reel me in and the personality either takes me in farther or spits me out."

I laugh. "Great simile, what, did that take you all night to come up with that one?"

"Ha.Ha.Very funny."

Suddenly I feel someone's presence behind me. I turn around and notice a dark haired boy with the prettiest blue eyes I've ever seen.

I feel a smile creep upon my face. "Oh um. Hi."

"The name's Shane, and you are?"

"Dana."

"Cool. You wanna dance?" He asks, holding out his hand.

I take it. My hand feels so cold in his. "Sure." I flick my hair behind me and before I know it we are on the dance floor.

He's a pretty good dancer, but I have a feeling the beat of the music helps. We dance for a few minutes and soon his hand somehow is on my waist, I don't know how it got there but I want him to move. I barely even know him, wait, let me rephrase, I don't know him.

"Back off." I say, moving a little farther away from him.

He hears me but I have a feeling he pretends he doesn't because I feel his hand lowering to my butt. I push him away.

"Who do you think you are?" I yell. It's really hard to hear over the music and I want to let him know where I stand. I'm not easy like the other girls here.

"Just havin' some fun, baby." He says, putting his hand on my waist again. My fingers form into a fist. I feel my hand rise but as soon as I do, I feel someone's hand on my shoulder. Logan.

"Mind if I cut in? Thanks. Bye." Logan pushes Shane and grabs my hand. He pulls me away before we can even hear what Shane had to say about anything.

I then find myself outside, sitting on the edge of concrete, the sand tickling my toes. Logan is next to me, running a hand thru his chocolate brown curls.

We haven't said a word to each other since he took me out of the club, just a few minutes ago.

I guess I should say something to him. He did save me from that pervert.

"Logan?"

He looks up, taking his eyes off the waves. "Yeah?"

"Thanks." I smile at him.

He smiles back. "No problem."

"No, but, really, why did you do that? You've been acting all nice to me lately, not that I mind it, but it just doesn't seem like you."

Logan sighs. "I just… I didn't want to see you get hurt. That guy could have taken it a lot farther. I'm just glad that you'd be tough enough to say no, or kick his ass."

"Yeah.Me too," I say, " but that still doesn't answer my question. Why have you been so nice to me?"

"Dana, this is really hard for me to say but I-"

"Oh my god, there you are!" Someone yells. I know that voice anywhere. It's Nicole. She runs over to me and gives me a hug.

"I heard what happened! Are you okay?" She looks over at me and then back at Logan. "Did I interrupt something?"

"Oh, no, Logan just was gonna tell me something." I turn to him. "What?"

"It's nothing. I'll let you guys talk. I'm going back inside." He says, dusting off his pants and heading towards the door.

I yell after him. "Logan, wait!"

He opens the door and goes inside. He looks so sad. I think I hurt him, but I don't know what I did wrong. Is there something going on here that I don't know about?

Nicole notices something is wrong and speaks up. "Dana, I think you, Zoey and I need to have a long talk."

She holds out her hand to help me up. I get up and brush a strand of caramel curls out of my face.

This is going to be a long night.

Two Chappies in one night. Pretty good updating-ness, huh?

So how was that?

Personally, I think this Chapter was better than Chapter 2, but thats all for you to decide. I think the Chapters before this(with the exception of Chapter 1) all kind of sucked but I promise you, I will try and make my writing better, like how it used to be. :) Chapter 5 will be up and ready to read on Friday since, I have no school, so I'll have plenty of time to write. Lucky you! Oh and if you have any ideas on what you'd like to see or happen next, just comment and let me know!

Also, thank you for all the nice comments. A special thanks to Natalie and Mo! You guys are awesome! My very first friends from when I came here to Fanfiction! Hehe.

And as always, don't forget to review. :)
