A/N: Thanks to everyone! I wrote all of the review responses Friday when I did the review responses for Will She Believe In Second Chances? but I wanted to get that one up first since I'd updated this one last. So, I updated that but didn't feel like writing out the author's notes for this one. I figured I'd just do it Saturday, then maybe I could update the final chapter of Will She Believe In Second Chances? on Sunday. Except I was busier than I'd expected on Saturday, and then when I did have downtime, I'm sorry to say I was just to lazy to add these author's notes. But I wanted to make sure I got it up now. So, this chapter has a lot of things. And I won't keep you from it much longer. Onto my oh-so fabulous reviewers!

7AMUSIC – Logan was worrying himself over her not wanting to go, but she was ecstatic when he told her about it. lol. I don't mind the short review. You took the time to review and that's what matters to me. I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

mrsloganreese – Zoey and Nicole's double date will come, but not for a while. I write everything in immense detail so, between all of Do You Love Me? and all of this, they go through…3 days in Do You Love Me? and…I think 5 days in this one. Wow. I didn't realize that, in a total of…85 chapters, I've only written a week and a day. Wow. Immense detail might be an understatement. lol. And Dana and Logan's trip doesn't come until after the date so that's even further away. I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

caligrl497 – Thanks so much! I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

tutorgrl323 – Thank you so much! I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

chichicutie24 – Yeah, Logan doesn't call her "cupcake" as much in this story. I thought it was really sweet at first, but then it started sounded kind of corny to me. lol. I love when they get to New York. Those scenes were fun to write. I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

larabaybee – I know, I love Dana and Logan together. I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

HighSchoolMusicalfan007 – Thank you so much! Whenever I have the time, I'll update both. Maybe not right after one another but within the same weekend if I can. Not too far apart. And once it's summer, I'll have so much more free time and I'll be able to get these chapters out faster. Who knows – maybe I'll even start on another story too. But, maybe not because I'm going to want to spend a lot of my summer free time working on the third story for this since I have practically nothing for that, I'm ashamed to say. I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

DanaandLogan4EVA – I agree, I love Dana and Logan together. And Dana was thrilled to be going, so Logan did all that worrying for nothing. lol. I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

melonbar92 – I think I've started liking Nicole more from writing this. She's a fun character to write. Jim's just this sweet guy who's in the background but wants to be noticed. Noticed…by that special someone. ;-) lol. As for what Logan's parents want, when I was writing this, I really had no idea what it was going to be. So anything that seems like it could be a hint foreshadowing something, it's just an accident because I had no idea what it was they wanted him for. I had a lot of possibilities though and that I'm pretty sure was one of them. Actually, there are still a lot of things I might add into why they want him there. I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

Ashlee – Thanks! I'm glad you're liking the story! Thanks for reviewing!

Chapter 8

Dana slowly opened her eyes. It was light out. Suddenly, she realized that she wasn't in her bed. She bolted up and looked around. The events of the night before all came back to her. After they had talked about the upcoming trip, they had made out for a while, then they lay down to look at the stars, and apparently fell asleep.

"Logan! Logan, wake up!" Dana exclaimed, shaking him slightly.

Logan groaned and slowly opened his eyes, only to see Dana sitting there. That woke him up. He sat up and he too remembered what had happened last night. "We fell asleep?" he asked, wanting to be sure.

"I'd assume that," Dana told him. "What time is it?"

Logan took out his cell phone. "5:48," he answered.

"Wow, how did I manage to get up so early?" Dana commented.

Logan laughed and stood up. "Come on, I'll walk you back to your dorm," he declared.

"No!" Dana shouted, jumping up. Logan frowned. Dana laughed a little and stroked his hair. "I'd love to have you walk me back, but it's early enough for some crazy people to be awake. If they find out about us being out all night…well, some people are going to assume that something happened that didn't," she explained.

Logan nodded. "I understand," he agreed. "I'll see you later, cupcake." He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her in for a final kiss before they parted. Dana wrapped her arms around his neck and returned the kiss passionately.

As much as he didn't want to, Logan finally broke the kiss. "Bye cupcake," he whispered.

Dana felt the chills run up her spine, as usual. Dana kissed him softly. "Bye Logan," she murmured.

Logan watched Dana turn and walk away. Wow. he thought. She's amazing. He smiled and continued to look after her until she was out of his sight. Still smiling, he turned and headed back to his dorm.

Dana snuck back up to her dorm. Quietly, she opened the door and crept over to her bed. She realized she was still in her clothes and knew that Zoey would question her on it. Thinking, she decided she'd just tell them that she got in late and was too tired to change. With that problem solved, she crawled into her bed and fell asleep.

Logan opened the door to his dorm. He closed it and began to make his way over to his bed. As he walked toward his bed, he noticed the bag with Dana's dress in it. I have to remember to give that back to her at some point today. he thought. Since he was looking at the bag, he wasn't watching where he was going. In turn, he walked right into the bunk bed.

He let out a small yell as he fell back onto the ground. Upon hearing his yell, Chase woke up and found Logan lying on the ground, moaning and holding his head. "What happened?" he muttered.

"I…uhh…walked into the bunk bed," Logan confessed.

Chase burst out laughing. "How did you do that?" he managed to choke out.

"I looked away!" Logan exclaimed, trying to defend himself.

Woken up by Chase's burst of laughter, Michael asked, "What's so funny, Chase?"

"Logan walked into the bunk bed," he explained.

Michael began to laugh as well. "Shut up!" Logan growled.

Chase and Michael tamed their laughter down to snickering. "Oh! What time is it?" Michael questioned.

Logan got up and took out his cell phone. "6:02," he answered.

Michael jumped out of bed. "Oh man! I was supposed to be up by 6!" he shouted, frantically running around the room, trying to get ready.

"Why do you need to be up at 6?" Logan inquired.

"She invited me running!" Michael replied.

"Who? And why would someone invite you running?" Logan quizzed.

"Cassandra! It's a test! And I'm late!" Michael yelped.

Logan looked over to Chase for an explanation. "Last night he met this girl and she was going running so he offered to go with her and nearly died after 5 minutes and she asked why he agreed to go running with her if he couldn't even last 5 minutes and he lied to her so then he went to go apologize and she told him that she goes for a run on the beach every morning at 6 so that was his invitation to go meet her and she knows he doesn't run at all so it's a test to see what lengths he'll go to for her," Chase told him.

"Look at you two! Michael – this Cassandra chick could tell you to jump off a 12-story building and you'd do it! And Chase! Chase, Zoey could tell you to jump off a 40-story building and you'd do it in a second!" he chided.

"Like you wouldn't jump off a building if Dana told you to!" Michael shot back.

"Speaking of Dana, what were you doing up this early anyway?" Chase interrogated.

"I fell asleep outside," Logan responded.

"With Dana?" Michael added.

"What's it to you?" Logan snapped.

"See? Dana has the same effect on you that Zoey and Cassandra have on us!" Chase declared triumphantly.

"No! I told Dana to come meet me outside, so I have the control over her," Logan informed them with a smirk.

"So? It could've been the other way around and you would've run outside to meet her," Chase remarked.

"No way! If I didn't want to go, I wouldn't have," Logan commented.

"But you would've wanted to go," Chase pointed out.

"Well, if I wanted to go, then I would've gone," Logan announced.

Chase rolled his eyes. "Whatever, Logan," he decided.

Logan glared at him. "I'll see you in class!" Michael called as he hurried out of the room.

Logan gave Chase one final glare before climbing up to the top bunk and going to sleep.

Michael hurried out of his dorm and down to the beach. He arrived at the beach and looked around. Cassandra was nowhere in sight. Glancing at his watch, he groaned. It was already 6:16. She would already be far ahead now. Sighing, Michael took a deep breath, then began to running along the beach, vowing to himself that he wouldn't stop until he'd caught up with Cassandra.

After one minute of running, Michael knew it would be hard to not break his vow. He was already growing tired. Beginning to pant slightly, he surged forward, determined. If he didn't catch Cassie, he might lose his chance with her. Michael wished he'd brought some water. Glancing at the ocean longingly, he tried to focus back on catching up to Sandra.

"Dana!"

Dana groaned and rolled over. The next thing she knew, she was being shook. "What?" she growled, sitting up slightly.

"When did you come in?" Zoey demanded.

"When did you fall asleep and when did you wake up? It's somewhere between then," Dana answered, then lay back down.

"Dana!" Zoey exclaimed.

Dana glared at her. "If you don't mind, I'd like to get some sleep. I got in late and I'm exhausted so get away from me!" she snapped.

"What were you doing? Were you out with Logan? Where did you guys go? How long were you out?" Zoey pestered.

Dana threw her pillow over her head and closed her eyes. She was determined to fall back to sleep. Zoey had other plans.

"Give it up, Dana! You'll have to get up eventually," Zoey pointed out.

"Says who?" Dana muttered.

"Says me!" Zoey declared.

"Zoey," Dana whined, "let me sleep. I'm tired."

Zoey sighed. "Fine, you can sleep a little longer, but you have to answer me once you actually have to get up," she decided.

"Whatever," Dana mumbled, turning towards the wall and almost instantly falling back asleep.

Keep going! Michael instructed himself. He glanced quickly at his watch. 6:27. It was a miracle. He'd lasted 11 minutes. Encouraged by that, he sped forward, determined to find Sandy.

The minutes ticked by and he ran further and further, but he couldn't catch her. For all he knew, she could've finished running and gone back to her dorm already. I have to find her! Michael thought. He was going to press through all of this. With that new found knowledge, he jolted forward yet again.

Michael was almost at the end of the stretch, then he had to turn a corner. He'd made it. Successfully, he turned the corner. Not only did he turn the corner, but he also saw something on the horizon. "CASS!" he called. "CASS!"

He could've sworn it looked like the figure had slowed down, but he couldn't tell for sure. Michael continued forward. It was like a mouse running for the cheese. He was the mouse, Cass was the cheese.

The figure was nearer. Was he really running that fast? He was close enough now to see the figure better. It was a girl. "CASS!" he yelled again, forcing himself to run even faster.

By some miracle, he did it. He caught up to her. "Cass!" he exclaimed. As he turned to look over at her, he tripped over his feet – partly out of exhaustion, and partly out of a lack of coordination. Michael lay there on the ground, panting. Cassandra's face appeared above him. "Hey…Cass," he wheezed.

Cassie grinned at him. "I'm glad you came," she told him, her voice almost a whisper.

Michael smiled as well. "Me too," he agreed. "Me…too."

A/N: That chapter was longer than the others have been, I think. Michael got a bigger focus this chapter. He actually survived running! I like when he trips. lol. Oh and I love when Logan walks into the bunk bed. lol. Ok, so, next chapter has some of everybody. I'm going to post the final chapter of Will She Believe In Second Chances? first though. Hopefully I'll be able to get that up tomorrow. Maybe if I get a lot of reviews really quickly I might be able to get the next chapter of this out tomorrow too. If not though, I might be able to post it Thursday. So, I'll post the next chapter after I get at least 7 reviews. Thanks! Bye!
