Chapter 5: Jealous Logan

"Come on, let's play!" Zoey shouted to her team. Michael, Chase, Logan, Dana, Glenn Davis, and all the other players took position.

Zoey went to go take the jump. (A/N: My sis says it's called the jump. No clue if she's right because I hate basketball. I'm a football girl.)
Anyways, Zoey was going to take the jump when Logan stepped forward.

"What are you doing?" Zoey asked.
Logan shoved her out of the way, "I'm the BEST player on the team, so I do the jump."
Dana raised her eyebrows, "Excuse me? Don't you talk to Zoey like that."
"Whatcha gonna do?" Logan shot back, "Kiss me?"
"You wish," Dana replied.

"Yeah, I do," He told her, in typical Logan fashion. (A/N: This is from a season 1 episode...can't remember which one though.)

"Ha, ha. Let Zoey take the jump," Dana demanded.

Logan glared, but backed off. He knew that Dana would win.

"Are we ready?" Troy asked.
Kelsi ran up, "Chase, I came to watch your game!"

Chase smiled and waved a little.

Zoey mumbled something under her breath. Troy was next to her and couldn't make out what she said, but he knew it wasn't nice.

Kelsi sat down next to Gabriella, "What's going on?"
Gabriella explained the deal and Coach Bolton blew the whistle.

Zoey got the ball and passed it to Dana. Troy stole it from her. Logan dribbled it down the court and scored the first basket. That was ok though, because Troy rebounding with a quick three pointer.

"Any idea what is going on?" Kelsi asked Gabriella.

"Not a clue..." Gabriella answered.
Chase was called for traveling. Logan muttered a couple cuss words under his mouth. Dana and Zoey were playing great that day. Dana made a three pointer.

"Nice shot," Troy commented, being nice, "Now, I know how you beat me at camp."
Dana smiled. Logan took note of this. Was he trying to get Dana back? Gabriella also saw this. I thought she wasn't trying to go after Troy...

Zoey missed a free shot.

"Nice going, Zoey!" Logan said, sarcastically, "Just let them take the lead, why don't you?"

Zoey looked at him, "Excuse me? You were the one who missed..."

Dana was dribbling down the court, but Chad stole the ball away.

Logan glared at Dana.

"I don't see you doing much better!" Dana remarked.

Logan, still angry that Troy was complimenting Dana, "See, this is why girls can't play basketball."

The game just stopped.
Zoey turned around when she heard that and she and Dana said together, "Excuse me?"
"Logan, if I recall, I was MVP last year," Dana pointed out.
"I let you win..." Logan covered.

"You are such a self centered ego-maniac..." Zoey started.

"Basketball is a male sport and you know it," Logan said.
"Yeah, 'cause you're the almighty one, all hail, Logan," Dana said, sarcastically.

"That's right..." Logan agreed.

Zoey dropped the basketball, "Since this is a one man sport..."
She and Dana walked off the court.

Logan counted his players. He didn't have enough without the girls.

Dana and Zoey smiled.

"Hey, I need more players!" Logan remarked.

"Reese, you can't play unless you've got more players," Coach Bolton told him.

"But..."
"You will forfeit the game..."
"Sorry, Logan-y, but we rather have Hitler as our coach than you..." Dana told him, "And Troy was a good captain."
"And I can live with the Wildcats..." Zoey added.

"Zoey!" Chase begged.

Troy couldn't believe his luck. The Stingrays were ahead by 7. This was great.

"Do you have replacements?" Mr. Bolton asked.
"I can't believe you're doing this to me! This is my team!" Logan whined.

"Ok, then we're the Wildcats," Coach decided. Troy became the team captain.

Troy went to Logan after the game, "Hey man, I'm sorry. About the game and Dana..."

Logan held out his hand and pulled it away, "I don't need your pity. This isn't over."
Troy sighed and walked away.

--

"Hey. You're Gabriella, right?" Logan asked.

It was time for Logan Sabatoge.

"Yeah, why?" Gabriella answered.

"I need to talk to you..." Logan told her.
Gabriella raised her eyebrow, "Do I even know you?"
"Yes. Well, no," Logan told her, "Indirectly, I guess."
Gabriella's expression told Logan to get to the point.

"It's about Troy Bolton," Logan was a genius. He knew that Troy wanted Gabriella. But it was payback time.

"Ok..."
"Troy dated Dana Cruz," Logan informed her.

"Yeah, I know. Dana told me," She answered.
"Did she tell you that Troy wants her back? Or that she is planning to take Troy from you?" This was a half lie. Technically, Logan did think that Troy was after Dana...again. But Troy and Dana had no interest in each other and Dana was not planning to take Troy back.
"What?" Gabi asked, "But Dana's my best friend. She knows I like him...she wouldn't--"

"Times have changed...and I guess so have Dana and Troy," Logan answered.

Zoey and Chase were walking along the beach after the game.

"This is nice," Zoey commented, "We never watch the sunset anymore..."
Chase agreed.

"And we don't talk as much either. I mean you and Kelsi---" Zoey started.
Chase interrupted, "Don't you just love her? I mean, I've never felt this way before. I think I'm going to ask her out..."
"That's great..." Zoey put on a fake smile. How could she be so stupid? Why didn't she realize her feelings for Chase when she had him all to herself?
"You're Ok with that, right?" Chase wanted to make sure.

"Yeah..." Zoey lied, "I mean, why wouldn't I be?"
Chase smiled, "Good."
There was a moment of silence.

Time to come clean.

"Chase, actually...it's not--" Zoey was about to tell him the truth when his cell phone rang.

Chase looked at it, "Kelsi. Can we talk later, Zoe?"

"Yeah..." Zoey pretended like she didn't care, "Go be in love..."

Chase ran off.

"...With someone besides me..." She added. Zoey swore she felt tears in her eyes.

A/N: Drama. Ok, bed. School tomorrow. Must sleep.
