Chapter 4

I do like him…

Zoey blushed at the thought of liking Logan. How could she like Logan? He was to stuck-up for her. But it seemed when he was around her, all his bad qualities disappeared, and he acted like a normal person.

Just then, the dorm door opened and in walked Nicole and Lola. Zoey, not wanting to talk about her wonderful night, quickly pretended she was asleep. The last people she wanted to know that she liked Logan was Nicole and Lola. If they knew, the world would know in at least 2 minutes.

Nicole slowly walked over to Zoey's bed and studied her intently. "Must have been a long night for her," she spoke to Lola, nodding her head.

"Well, duh. Spending an hour with Logan seems like an eternity," Lola replied, getting changed in the bathroom.

Just then Zoey's cell rang. It flashed Chase. Zoey still acted like she was sleeping, she didn't want to tell Chase either. She knew Chase liked her, and she didn't want to make him jealous. After all, they were best friends.

"Wow, that chick's out like a rock," Nicole stated wide-eyed. She shrugged and then answered it.

"Hello?"

"Hey, it's Chase. Where's Zoe?"

"She's sleeping, what do you need? I'll write it down for her."

"Ahh, it's nothing. I just wanted to know how was her night with Logan."

"I'm guessing long and tiring, considering she's fast asleep."

"Well Logan seems to differ. He said he and Zoey had a great time, and they laughed and joked around."

Nicole found this not believable, "Logan's just trying to make you jealous. He's such a show-off."

Chase was going to argue the fact that how he wasn't jealous, but everyone knew he liked Zoey, "Well whatever. I'm going. Tell Zoey I called in the morning. Bye."

"See yah." Nicole clicked off the phone and went to get ready for bed.

Zoey, on the other hand, heard the conversation. She just shook it from her head and eventually dozed off.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next day, Zoey was sitting at her table in lunch, waiting for Nicole to come and sit by her. Lola had a different lunch period, so she was in Sociology right now.

Zoey nibbled on her fries while Logan spotted her from afar. Someone's looking fine today. He grinned to himself and started to walk over to her. He wanted to ask her about the movies later.

Zoey saw Logan coming and she immediately perked up. She just hoped Nicole wouldn't come just yet.

"Hey," Logan said, sitting down across from her. "We still on for tonight?"

"Sure, what movie are we going to see?" Zoey asked while looking into his eyes. Damn, he has nice eyes.

Logan flashed a smile, "I was thinking something scary. How about "The Hills have Eyes?"

Zoey thought for a moment. She really didn't like horror movies, but if it was spending time with Logan, than she would agree. "Alright, come get me at my dorm at 7. I'll need extra time to get ready."

"It's a date," Logan winked, then stood up and nodded goodbye. Zoey's stomach filled with butterflies.

Logan walked off, he felt like a king. Tonight, she's gonna be mine.

Zoey stared at him as her sauntered off. At that moment, Nicole walked over. The two chatting for a bit before the subject of Logan came up.

"What were you and Logan talking about?" She asked curiously.

Zoey wasn't going to try and cover up, Nicole would eventually find out anyway. "Logan's taking me to a movie tonight to thank me for helping him," she said, looking down at her food.

"Oh. So it's a date," Nicole stated, smirking at Zoey.

Zoey turned red a little. "No it's nothing like that. You think I would fall for Logan? Pfft, yeah right," Zoey lied.

"Whatever you say," Nicole said still smiling. Zoey rolled her eyes and got up to leave, "I got to go find Chase, later."

That was close.

Chase found Zoey and began to walk with her to class. Chase knew from what Logan told him that they were going on a date. He decided not to bring it up, besides, it probably wasn't even true. And he didn't want to seem envious.

After talking about the basketball team for a while, Chase changed the subject. "So do you want to hang out tonight? Go to Sushi Rox or something?" he asked hopefully.

Now Zoey did want to cover up in front of Chase, "Sorry, I can't. I have plans."

Chase found this mysterious and wanted to know more about her plans. "What pl-"

Then the bell rang and Zoey stated to jog. "Can't be late for class," she laughed. Chase shook his head. Sometimes that girl is hopeless.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Later that night, Zoey was getting ready for her 'date', as Logan put it. She was wearing a dark jean skirt with a baby-pink halter top that said 'Hollister' across the stomach in white letters. She also wore baby-pink flip-flops and her hair was loosely curled.

As she was putting in her earrings, she heard a knock at the door. She smiled and hollered, "Just a minute."

Logan chuckled when he heard her voice. He was wearing khaki cargo shorts, a red, sleeveless shirt that said 'Billabong' in black and white letters. He wore black K-Swiss sneakers.

He heard he fumble with the doorknob as she opened it. "Hi Logan,"

Wow.
