((A/N: Gah, I would've updated sooner, but on Friday Ernesto came and knocked out our power that morning, and we didn't get it back until Saturday morning. Which really sucked. This isn't gonna be a long chapter, cuz im getting ready to go to the Teddy Geiger concert tonight so yeah.

Thanks to all who reviewed, honestly, I wasn't expecting people to review.

Girliegurl, chichicutie,& Kath Kruger - thanks for the reviews!

Pebbles-05- I'm not quite sure how many it's gonna have just yet. Maybe in the 20's or more? I'm not positive.

CassieLovesRyne - The picture will become a bit important later. Lets just say its was at the beach, and the whole group had been hanging out, and it was a bit after Dana had found out she was going to Paris for a semester. So it'll become important-ish later.

Tweetybaby- yeah I completely agree. I wasn't too sure if I wanted to include Lola into this, but then again I felt I had to because Lola wouldn't just disappear if Dana came back. So I just left her in, but I decided not to make her overly jealous like she is in some stories.))

(now I know it sorta jumps around, but I didn't wanna do it in flashbacks, and I really wanted to include the summer. So it just jumped from then to school but it won't do that anymore.)

-----------------------------------------
FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL
----------------------------------

I stepped out of the taxi and looked around at my surroundings. I was so happy to be back. I had arrived hours before anyone else would be here, so I could get through registration without any problems. It felt so good to be back. I grabbed my suitcases and walked to the Dorm Administrations office. I had already taken care of my schedule a couple of days ago on the phone with the administrators so that way it was less I'd have to do when I got here. I wonder where ill be bunking. I really wish it would be in 101 with Zoey and Nicole, but I'm doubting that since Lola's there and all. Oh well, maybe ill get my own dorm. That would be great. And, no noisy hair drier to wake me up in the mornings!

I walked up the last flight of stairs and knocked on the office door.

"Good morning, how may I help you?"

"Hi, I'm Dana Cruz, the transfer student? I attended PCA last year..."

"Ah, yes of course Miss Cruz. Where did I place your sheet?...Ah, here it is..Lets see where we can put you shall we?"

I nodded. Hopefully its somewhere good. Preferably in Brenner Hall.

"You roomed with Miss Bristow and Miss Brooks last year right?"

I nodded again.

"Yes well..unfortunately they have a new roommate.. And im assuming you would've wanted to bunk with them? Well.. I'm afraid we can't kick out their new roommate and move her, as that's unfair. So we'll do the next best thing and put you in room 102, which is right across the hall. You'll be bunking by yourself, we don't have anyone in that dorm right now. Will that be okay?"

"That'll be perfect! Thanks so much"

I smiled at her and took my key from her and headed off to 102 to unload my stuff.

--------------------------------------------

The entire plane ride back was torturous. We stayed at Nicole's the rest of the summer, so we had to leave from there. We all got plane seats in the same row. And go figure that it was Brookes and Bristow, Lola and Michael, Quinn and Dustin, and Chase and I. My mind has been racing ever since that night we played the game. Why did Nicole have to give me that picture? I mean yeah I kinda wanted it, but why would she give it to me? I mean of course I miss Dana. I miss torturing her. So why would she give me a picture of when we were smiling? I plugged in my Ipod so I didn't have to listen to Nicole talk anymore. All she was doing the entire time since we took off was lean over our seat and talk to Chase and I. Its really obnoxious. I put it onto shuffle and closed my eyes trying to sleep. But as soon as it started playing my eyes shot open because of the song. Crazy For This Girl by Evan and Jaron. It never hit me as hard as it did today.. What's wrong with me! Why am I so crazy over this? Its just a song, chill. But I couldn't shake the feeling the lyrics gave me though.

"She rolls the window down
And she
Talks over the sound
Of the cars that pass us by
And I don't know why
But she's changed my mind

Would you look at her
As she looks at me
She's got me thinking about her constantly
But she don't know how I feel
And as she carries on without a doubt
I wonder if she's figured out
I'm crazy for this girl

She was the one to hold me
The night
The sky fell downAnd what was I thinking when
The world didn't end
Why didn't I know what I know now

Would you look at her
As she looks at me
She's got me thinking about her constantly
But she don't know how I feel
And as she carries on without a doubt
I wonder if she's figured out
I'm crazy for this girl

Right now
Face to face
All my fears
Pushed aside
And right now
I'm ready to spend the rest of my life
With you

Would you look at her
As she looks at me
She's got me thinking about her constantly
But she don't know how I feel
And as she carries on without a doubt
I wonder if she's figured out
I'm crazy for this girl

Would you look at her
As she looks at me
She's got me thinking about her constantly
But she don't know how I feel
And as she carries on without a doubt
I wonder if she's figured out
I'm crazy for this girl"

It reminds me so much of how I felt last year. I was crazy about her..But she just pushed me away. I just wish I stood a chance with her.

-------------------------------------------------

I stepped out fo the taxi and grabbed my gear from the trunk. I couldn't wait to get back to 101 and start the school year already. This year is going to be great. We parted ways with Chase, Michael, and Logan and headed to our dorm. The entire time we were unloading all we did was talk. We were having a blast until there was a knock on the door.

"Geeze you guys are still unpacking? We finished in what 5 minutes?"

"Shut up Logan" Lola said as she put the last of her clothes into the closet.

"Alright, I'm bored. Come on guys put the rest away later, lets go to Sushi Rox im starved!" Michael said rubbing his stomach

"Michael you had like three bags of chips on the plane how can you possibly be hungry?" Lola said with a look of disbelief on her face

"What can I say, I'm hungry again!"

"Lets just go. We can scope out who's here." Nicole said

We walked out of the dorm and as we did I bumped into someone

"Oh sorry! I wasn't paying attention" I looked up at the girl I had rammed into. No way. It couldn't be. I heard a gasp behind me.

"Dana?"

She smiled.

"Hey guys."

----------------------------------------

We all walked out of the dorm when we were stopped abruptly because Brooks crashed into someone. But once she moved her head, I gasped. There was no way it was her. But it is. Oh my god she looks hot. Is it possible that she got hotter over the year? Oh wow. I guess I must've been staring because Chase elbowed me in the side.

"Say something to her, she's staring at you dude." he said just so I could hear.

Think Logan think!

"Hey Cruz, Wanna make out?" I smirked. It was all I could think of. She laughed

"Not even in your dreams Reese."

I shrugged.

"Hey Dana, were going to Sushi Rox, wanna come? We've got soo much to catch up on!" Nicole said.

"Yeah sure, that sounds great."

-------------------------------------------

We walked down the hall. The old gang reunited. This was cool. I'm so glad to be back. I wasn't expecting to run into them like this though. I wanted to do it differently. The entire time we were standing there though, Logan was staring at me. And I was staring right back. I wanted him to say something. But he was in a trance, thankfully, Chase snapped him out of that though. And finally he broke the silence. "Hey Cruz, wanna make out?" I decided I should just go back to my snappy routine so I said not even in his dreams. Even though..I kinda wish that I would take him up on that offer.. For real this time, unlike at the dance.

Once we got to Sushi Rox and ordered our food, I got bombarded with questions.

"Did you have fun?"
"Did you meet any guys?"
"How was the shopping?"
"Did you beat up any of em?"

"Guys one at a time! To answer your questions, I didn't have very much fun. Yes I met guys" I glanced over at Logan as I said that and he looked mad "But I didn't like any of em." that mad emotion quickly turned to a relieved one. "I'm not really one for shopping, but It was good. And yes I beat a lot of them up."

"You didn't like the guys? Why not?" Nicole asked, she acted as if I had sinned.

"They were all pompous egotistical jerks. They couldn't take no for an answer. They also couldn't take the fact that I wasn't a floozie like the rest of the girls at the school and I wasn't going to go anywhere, or do anything with them"

Nicole mouthed oh, then looked at Zoey in hopes she'd start a new topic.

They started talking about everything and anything. I started zoning out though, it's not that I'm not interested in what has gone on while I've been gone, it's just, I have other things on my mind. I was soon snapped out of my thoughts.

"Hey Dana, can we talk?" I nodded and we walked out of the restaurant away from sight and out of earshot of the others.
