Chapter 11

"Zoey, it's over."
Logan's words still rang in her head as she stared unbelievingly at the phone. She placed the phone on the bathroom sink and let the tears fall from her face. First of all, she was stressed. Too much was happening - her picture supposedly floating around campus, Logan breaking up with her, and not to mention it was midnight and she was so tired.
Zoey didn't have the energy, so she would deal with it in the morning. Walking slowly back to her bed, she quickly put her hand up to quiet any questions from Nicole or Lola.
"Guys, I don't want to talk about it. I'll tell you tomorrow," and with that she crashed onto her bed, turned the light off, and begged the tears to stop falling.
I'm not your every day, around the way
Don't go bar-hoppin', chillin' on the block
On a cell phone frontin',
Never that, cuz I'm not that kinda girl

"I highly doubt it Logan," Chase said after hearing Logan's story.
"Yeah man, Zoey's not that kind of girl," Michael tried to reason with him.
Logan stared at the picture of Zoey and Glenn, "A picture's worth a thousand words. I can name a few right now. Dishonesty, cheating, whore." He then tossed the photo backwards and laid back on his bed.
Chase gave Michael a look and then started again, "Dude, did you even hear Zoey's side of the story? I'm sure she has a logical explanation of what happened. And you know Glenn, he's been crushing on Zoey for weeks. He probably connived some plan to get her into this."
Michael jumped in, "And Zoey's, like, the most modest person you know. She wouldn't go around flashing her goodies to anyone, except for, umm, you."
This caused Chase to snicker but immediately turned his attention back to Logan, who was rubbing his eyes, "Listen, man, just think about it. I'm going to bed."
Michael agreed then turned off the lights. Logan, however, laid on his back staring at the ceiling. He had never been cheated on, nor been the one to have his heart broken. That was his job. He didn't know how to destroy the pain that was being thrown at him. So the only way to destroy is was to destroy the distributor of the pain. And that's exactly what he did, he broke up with Zoey.

The next morning was a Saturday, which meant know classes. Zoey was taking a shower, still depressed from the night before. But as she was washing her hair, she found a new feeling. Anger. She was angry at Logan for not even listening to her side of the story. Angry at him for believing Brittany. Angry at him for not knowing her well enough to trust her. And now she was going to set this boy straight.
After changing her clothes, Zoey stormed off to find her target's room. Logan's room. On the way there, she ignored nasty comments like, "Look, it's Zoe the ho'." She was to into her thoughts to care.
But there was on thing that put Zoey off. Right there, pinned on the bulletin board for everyone to see was the infamous picture of her and Glenn. Tears sprang to her eyes, and she ripped the picture to pieces. Just wait 'til I see Logan.
Meanwhile, Logan was brushing his teeth, trying to shake any feelings for Zoey from his heart. It was harder than he thought.
Suddenly, Logan heard someone furiously banging on his door. He quickly wiped his mouth and flung the towel over his shoulder. Once he opened it, he came face-to-face with a fists clenched, eyes narrowed Zoey.
"Let's chat, Logan," she said calmly through closed teeth. Logan had never seen her so pissed off, and at that moment he was afraid and let her in. She brushed past his shoulder. As he closed the door, she turned around and stared him down.
"How dare you?" she asked bitterly. Logan shrugged, "What?"
"How dare you even think about breaking up with me after what I went through last night?" Zoey pointed her slightly shaking finger at him. Logan found his anger and returned the pointed finger, "How dare I? You were the one that cheated you slut!"
Logan noticed Zoey's eyes were glassy, as if she was going to cry. But she kept her composure. "So, I'm a cheating slut, huh?" she glared at him, placing her hands on her hips.
"From what I hear, yeah!" Logan glared back.
"Well did you also hear that I was forced to make out with Glenn after he slipped off my bikini top and then I was revealed half naked to all the other people around in the hot tubs? Did you hear that!" Zoey's voice cracked at the last words and a tear gently rolled down her cheek.
Logan's faced dropped, he was wrong about her. He couldn't look at the sight in front of him because he knew he was the cause of it. Running his hand through his hair, he looked into her eyes and saw pain.
"Zoey, I didn't-" Logan started, reaching out to her.
Zoey moved out of his reach, "How could you not listen to me first? Don't you trust me? I trusted you, being the pervert that you are, to talk to other girls. But you, you couldn't trust me enough or know me well enough that I would never do that to someone I care about as much as you!" She had no more fight left in her.
Logan felt horrible. He Didn't know what to say. Sorry didn't begin to cover what she had been through. Everyone in the whole school had a different opinion of her now. And he couldn't be there for her to cry on.
Zoey wiped her eyes and regained her composure. She headed for the door when Logan stopped it from opening with his hand, "Zoe, wait."
She looked at him in his eyes and just shook her head. Zoey gently moved his hand and walked out the door. Logan was left to stare after her.
As Zoey walked along the campus, she got stares and whispers from everyone she passed. She couldn't take it anymore, so she started to run. She ran all through the halls and into her dorm. Zoey slammed the door and sunk down it 'til she was sitting on the ground, legs up.
When she slammed the door, it caused the walls to vibrate. A peace of paper slipped down from the walls vibration. On it, it said:
