Chapter Five

Logan stormed back into his room and laid down on his bed. He ignored Chase and Michael, trying to figure out what was wrong.

"First period" Dana said. "Only seven more to go. Then I can go home and see Lucas!"

"Aww." Zoey and Nicole said in unison.

"Next weekend, maybe you guys could come with me? I really want you to meet him." Dana said.

"Of course!" Nicole said "I so want to meet him. Right Zoe?"

"Well, if Dean Rivers says it's okay."

"He totally will!" Nicole said full of enthusiasm.

Logan walked up at that point. "Dana." He said softly. "Can I talk to you?"

Dana was in shock. She'd been trying for weeks to talk to Logan, and now he was talking to her. She could barely say anything. "Um, sure." She turned to Zoey and Nicole, "I'll talk to you later, guys."

As Zoey and Nicole walked away, Logan sat down in the seat next to Dana. "You know, you could have just told me."

"Excuse me?" She said.

"About this Lucas. I would have understood." If only you knew the half of it. "Just tell me something. Do you still have it?"

What? How does he know. I never told him. "I- I..."

He grabbed her wrist and lifted her sleeve, revealing the black L. "You didn't get it removed. You still love me."

"Logan, there's something you need to know about Lucas."

"Trust me." Logan said. "I don't want to hear about your new boyfriend."

He got up to leave. "Logan, you're right. I do still love you." He sat back down. "Just let me explain this whole thing."

"So you see Dean Rivers," Dana said "Logan is Jean-Luc's father. It's only appropriate that he meets him."

"Miss Cruz, you told me that this happened in France." the Dean said.

"It did sir." Logan said. "And I am Jean-Luc's father."

"Okay. Just be back here by Sunday."
