Author's Note: Hi again. Wow I love this story. I update it so much. My poor other story isn't getting the same amount of attention, oh well. Ok, I'd like to that every one who reviewed. I got some good reviews and even one from an extreme homophobic person. Oh well. This chapter is shorter than usual due to the fact what happens next should be its own chappie so I stop. Sticks tongue out at you all Just smile and nod…
Disclaimer: I own nothing. If only I was rich and powerful. Of coarse then I wouldn't waste my money on Zoey 101. I would start a Canadian biking team to race in the Tour de France. Tiz awesome. GO LANCE! You can win number 7! Any ways, I don't own Sunny Dale either…
Warnings: Slash (homosexual tendencies) and out of character-ness.
Chapter 4
I'll Be There For You
Chase's POV (At lunch)
Logan and I were sitting at the usual lunch table with every one else. I looked up from my grapes at Logan. He was sitting slightly across from between Dana and Zoey. Logan looked over at me and winked. What was that supposed to mean?
"So, Chase, feeling any better? 'Cause if you're not I think I have this new chemical that may have some slight side effects like…" Quinn started but I cut her off, no way am I going to be her new lab rat.
"Sorry to disappoint, but I'm cool. A new man if you will." I said as I leaned back in my chair and rested my hands on top of my head looking directly at Logan.
"Christmas is only in six days!" Nicole squealed loudly as she finished looking at her calendar. "And we get to go home in two days! I can't wait to see my parents. I miss them."
"Right, Christmas, thanks for reminding me…" I grumble gloomily.
"What's wrong? Don't like winter holidays. A full two weeks without school!" Zoey asked and I just stared ahead. Suddenly I snapped at her.
"Well, you see the difference between you and me is that you have a family while I have to figure out where I am going to live, how to get food and where the money is coming from. Logan, you can explain it to them, right now I have to go pack an over night bag. I have a funeral to attend tomorrow." And with that a slammed my chair back and charged to my dorm. Man, I am so out of control.
Logan's POV
"Good going' Zo." Dana said with a glare.
"It's not her fault. It was Chase's decision not to tell any one. But now he has asked me to explain so I will. His parents died. A few days ago, it was a car accident. The funeral is tomorrow. Now, leave Chase alone, if he wants to talk to you he'll come to you. Now if you will excuse me…" I said as I wiped my hands on my serviette and started to leave the group.
"Where are you going?" Michael asked with a strange sort of look.
"To talk to Chase."
"I thought you said not to bother him, he'll find us." Quinn asked trying to mimic my voice. Why is she so weird?
"You see, Chase and I, well, we have a special bond, if you will. We can tell what the other wants… what they… need…" And with that said I left for the dorms to comfort Chase.
Back in the dorm (Still Logan)
I walked into the room to see Chase kneeling on the floor, his head in his hands. When he heard the door click shut he quickly wiped his face and looked up. The face-wiping thing really didn't help much because I could still tell that he had been crying.
I wondered over to the closet and grabbed my over night bag. "I'm coming with you." I said to him in a matter of fact voice.
"What are you talking about? You can't come, you've never even met my family." Chase tried to explain but he wasn't going to talk me out of this one.
"I know, but you need a friendly face, some one to comfort you as you say good-bye to you parents." I explained as I also grabbed his bag.
"Thank-you." He said meekly as I tossed him his bag and we started packing. Suddenly I stopped and whipped out my cell phone and started dialling. Chase looked at my in total bewilderment.
"Hi, mom. I was wondering if I could possibly go with my friend Chase to…uh… hold on a moment." I looked over at Chase. "Where do you live and where is the departing ceremony taking place?" I asked.
"Sunny Dale, it's about an hours drive from downtown LA." He explained. (A/N: I do not own Sunny Dale. I don't know if it's real or not, but I got that from Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Belonging to Joss!) I turned back to my phone and my awaiting mother.
"He lives in Sunny Dale. This will be an overnight trip, well leaving in a couple hours and coming back tomorrow night." I listened to her breathing over the phone; I knew she was thinking about it.
"Listen mom," I whispered. "His parents died in a car accident a few days ago, I want to accompany him to their departing ceremony. I think it would be easier on him if he had a friend ant the departing ceremony." The departing ceremony is what my mom and I say instead of funeral. I think it has a certain, je ne sais quoi.
On the other end my mom sighed. "Alright you can go. Be safe. I love you Logan."
"Bye mom, I love you too." I said as I hung up and continued to pack my bag.
"Oh and by the by," I said to Chase. "I can go."
Chase stood up and walked over to me. "Thank-you." He whispered in my ear before giving me a kiss on the cheek.
"You're welcome. I'm going to go take a shower. Finish packing." And with that I left the room, smiling as I walked down the hallway to the bathroom.
