A/N: Thank you to all my awesome readers! You guys are so great at reviewing I can barely keep up! I feel like I finish writing these review responses, then I check my e-mail and there's more! lol. Not that I mind though. Keep your reviews coming! I love reading and replying to them! Alright, so, this chapter has no Dana and Logan. Sorry! But, it has Zoey, Chase, Michael, and Chase. And brief Nicole but those four are the prominent characters this chapter. Onto my oh-so fabulous reviewers!

tr0pix – Thanks! I love when Logan punches the wall too. I knew someone who accidentally did something like that once. lol. That would be funny to see. Well, I'm not going to spoil anything by telling the pairings, but I'm going to remember that. I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

skatergirl4eva – No Dana and Logan in this chapter, but next chapter is a lot of Dana stuff, and some Logan. I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

translucent – Thanks! I know, I love how he punches a hole in the wall. lol. I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

Ashley – Thanks! Glad you thought the recap was a good idea! I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

HighSchoolMusicalfan007 – Wow! Thank you SO much! I really appreciate the support! Dana and Logan aren't going to do any making out this chapter (considering they're not in this chapter. lol.) but there might be something happening later on. ;-) lol. I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

xxBritsterxx – Thanks! I love that part! And that phrase! lol. "Uh oh, spaghetti-o." I wonder who came up with "spaghetti-o". lol. I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

LadyKatyUltimateFan – Thank you sooo much! Perfection? Wow! Thanks! I think me being good at putting in all the long details comes from me being good at talking too much. lol. I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

chichicutie24 – Thanks! Yeah, the whole chapter 1 was pretty intense. Chapter 2 toned down a bit on the intensity. Yeah, this story probably has more intense moments than Do You Love Me? did. I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

Annimouse – Thank you SOO much! After all the amazing reviews I got for Do You Love Me? it's hard to try to top that, but I'm trying! I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

xx-steph-xx-falco-xx – Thanks! I don't want to give anything away, but there will be events in this story that impact their relationship. Maybe positive, maybe negative. That's all I'll say. I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

Disclaimer: I don't own Zoey 101 or any of the characters, except Cassie.

Chapter 3

Michael stepped outside into the cool night air. He looked around, wondering where to go next. He then realized how stupid this was. He didn't know anything about this girl! How was he supposed to find her? Michael sighed and began to walk around aimlessly. I need to find her dorm. he thought. Even if she's not there, her roommates must know where she is.

He thought back to when he met her. Of course! he realized. I met her when I was in the girls' lounge! With that new knowledge, he turned and headed towards Butler Hall. (A/N: I know they have a new building for the second season but I can't remember the name of it right now so I'm just going to keep their original.)

"Do you think I should call Chase?" Zoey questioned suddenly. After she and Nicole had finished picking out their outfits, she couldn't stop thinking about Chase and what had happened and how upset he'd seemed.

"Why?" Nicole asked.

Zoey realized Nicole didn't know what had happened. "We…we kind of got in a fight…kind of," she explained.

"Sure, I guess," Nicole answered.

Zoey took out her cell phone. She hesitated, then sighed and called Chase.

Chase wouldn't have even noticed if someone turned the TV off. Or the lights. Or if movers were to come, pick up the couch, and drive it away in their moving van. He was that out of it. Therefore, it surprised him greatly when his cell phone started ringing. He nearly jumped out of his skin.

"Hello?" he answered.

"Umm…Chase, hi. It…it's Zoey," came the reply.

"Zoey," Chase managed to choke out. "Hi."

"Listen, Chase, I just wanted to make sure we were ok after…whatever it was that happened back there," she explained.

"Oh, uhh, yeah, we're cool. Sorry about that," he apologized.

"Chase, don't apologize. You didn't do anything wrong," she remarked.

"I…" Chase sighed. "I guess," he agreed halfheartedly.

"Chase, what's wrong?" Zoey asked.

"Nothing. I…I just…nothing," he announced.

He could just tell Zoey was frowning. "Ok, but, well, if you want to talk, I'm always here for you," she told him.

"I know, thanks Zo. And remember, I'm always here for you too," he reminded her.

"I know. Thanks Chase. I'll talk to you tomorrow, ok?" she declared.

"Ok. Bye Zo," Chase replied.

"Bye Chase."

Michael found himself outside of Butler Hall much too quickly. Now what? he wondered. He sighed and stepped into the lounge. He surveyed the nearly empty room. He didn't see many familiar faces. Just a few girls who he'd never really paid attention to. Something caught his attention though. A figure, lurking in the shadows. He cautiously made his way over. "Cass?" he called into the darkened hallway.

"Mike?"

"Cass, where are you? Why are the lights off?" he asked.

Light suddenly flooded the hallway. Michael blinked and squinted at the sudden brightness. "Man, that's bright!" he remarked.

"Sorry," Cassie commented. Michael looked up and saw her grinning at him. "So, what are you doing here? It's late."

"What were you doing in a pitched black hallway?" Michael shot back.

"I asked you first," Sandra teased.

Michael grinned. "I was looking for you," he explained. "Your turn."

"I needed to think. To clear my head. It was too late to go for a run so I turned off all the lights and just sat here," Sandy told him.

"What were you thinking about?" Michael questioned.

"Why were you looking for me?" Cass countered.

"I asked you first," Michael mocked.

Cassandra laughed. "I was thinking about today. And all the fun I had with you," she answered. "Your turn," she taunted, sticking her tongue out at him.

Michael laughed. "I couldn't watch TV because I felt bad because I lied to you," he confessed.

"You lied to me? About what?" Cassie quizzed.

"You know what. I lied, you knew I lied, and I knew that you knew I lied, and it was messing me up," he informed her.

Sandra smiled. "Tell me the truth then. Why'd you agree to go running with me?" she inquired, moving closer to him, just like she had when she'd asked him before.

Michael felt himself beginning to sweat. "Be-because I w-wanted to b-be with you," he stammered.

Michael thought he saw her face flush red, but she turned away quickly. "Oh, ok," she replied. "Well, it's late. I don't want you to get in trouble."

"Oh, yeah, right. Ok, so, umm…will I see you tomorrow?" he wondered, his voice almost pleading.

"Maybe," Sandy stated, still not turning around.

Michael sighed and turned to leave. As he pulled open the door, he heard Cass call after him, "I go for a run along the beach every morning at 6."

He turned around but the light in the hallway was off once again. Michael smiled slightly, then stepped outside. As he breathed in the cold air, he shook his head. The things he was doing for this girl.

A/N: Everyone's made amends. And Michael's going running at 6 am. Wonder how that will go. Oh and I now remember their new dorm name, but I decided to leave them in Butler Hall anyway since it's more like Dana never left. Next chapter brings back Dana and Logan. It's a lot of Dana stuff, with some of Logan, and some Chase and Zoey. I'll post the next chapter after I get at least 5 reviews! Thanks! Bye!
