Dana sighed in confusion as she watched Logan leave. She stood up, missing his aura, and glided over to her bags, deciding to change clothes.

Dana grabbed a pair of faded jeans and a long sleeved black shirt that was clingier than she was used to. She quickly went to the bathroom to wash her face and put on some make-up.

Finally, she walked out the door, ready for dinner with everyone. Ready to meet Logan's father.

As Dana walked into the huge dining room, it got quiet, and all eyes were on her. Then Logan stood up and walked over to her, clasping her hand and leading her to a chair by his.

All the time they ate, Logan never let go of her hand, and he didn't hide it. He placed their clasped hands on top of the table.

Dana smiled and decided she would just listen to the small conversations going on around her.

"So you're Dana huh?" said Cassie snobbily.

"Yeah…" Dana said quietly looking at her plate.

She played with her food pushing it around the plate with her fork.

Logan glared at Cassie for talking to Dana that way and he squeezed her hand. "Don't mind her…" Logan whispered.

Logan's father was looking at Dana, observing her. Dana looked across the table at Zoey and Chase who were eating silently and gazing at each other every other glance and Nicole and Michael sat across form each other and were playing footsie.

As soon as the first person got up to leave, (Cassie's dad) Dana jumped up and thanked Malcolm for the meal.

Logan looked at her oddly, but stood up and followed. "Dana?" he called, walking toward her room.

"I'm in here." She said, poking her head out of his room.

"Why are you in there?" he asked, going in and closing the door. "I like it better in here." She said. Logan laughed. "Okay."

Dana grinned and sat down on the floor by the bed. "Why do you always do that?" he asked, flopping on the bed and looking down at her.

"I like the floor." She said. "Well…come up here…" he said, pointing to the other half of the bed. Dana grinned and did as she was told.

"You know…I think I like it up here too." She said as she rested her head on his chest. He stroked her hair lightly. "Me too." He said.

Suddenly the door opened and Cassie walked in. She glared daggers at Dana. "You know, Logan honey, you should really tell her about us before you do anything with her…" Cassie said, pulling Logan off the bed and into a deep passionate kiss.

Logan was shocked. Dana was pissed. Cassie was pushing herself closer to Logan.

"Logan?" Dana whispered. Logan didn't hear her. There was a problem. He wanted to let go of Cassie and go wash out his mouth, but his body just would work. He had his arm around her and wasn't to happy about it.

Dana had a tear streaming down her face. This time she wouldn't let him lie his way out of it. Oh no…this time…she would be gone faster than he could blink.

She stormed into her room, packed up the clothes she had missed and zipped it up. She wrote a note to Zoey and the others, and even to Logan.

"Logan,

You know, I really believed you were different now. But you aren't. Still the same old Logan. But I can't stand to be one of twenty…I can't even stand to be one of two…Logan…I'll be at PCA this year, but DON'T talk to me. Because I will, and I mean this…I WILL give you a black eye and ensure you'll never have children…

Dana"

one week later

Dana was back in her room at PCA, along with everyone else. She sat at her laptop, waiting for the screen to pop up so she could check her mail.

Finally, the screen opened and she looked at the single piece she had and she sighed. It was from Logan…again. She had received a million e-mails from him over the week saying he was sorry.

She opened the mail and read.

"Dana,

I know you hate me…just…you have to know I'm sorry…listen to this song okay…..

Logan"

Dana opened the attached song and listened.

It's 3 AM and I finally say
I'm sorry for acting that way
I didn't really mean to make you cry
Oh baby, sometimes I wonder why

Why does it always have to come down
To you leaving
Before I'll say 'I love you'
Why do I always use the words
That cut the deepest
When I know how much it hurts you
Oh baby why, do I do that to you

I know I'd never let you walk away
So why do I push you 'til you break
And why are you always on the verge of good-bye
Before I'll show you how I really feel inside

Why does it always have to come down
To you leaving
Before I'll say 'I love you'
Why do I always use the words
That cut the deepest
When I know how much it hurts you
Oh baby why, do I do that to you

Why do I always use the words that cut the deepest
When I know how much it hurts you
Oh baby why, do I do that to you
Why do I do that to you

By the end, she had tears in her eyes. Did he mean it? Did he love her? Of course he didn't. But she loved him!

She ran down to his room and knocked on the door. As soon as he opened the door he said "What do you want?" then he saw Dana and his eyes widened.

Dana had tears streaming down her cheeks and she launched into his arms. "I'm sorry…so, so sorry!" she said, hugging him tightly.

Logan hugged her back. "I know. I'm sorry to…" Logan said, rubbing her back and pulling her in a little so he could close the door.

"I-I like your song…" Dana murmered. Logan smiled. "Thank-you. I meant it you know…I…I love you…" Logan said, looking in her eyes.
