Hey… it's me again! I just wanted to say that you guys rock for reading and reviewing the sequel to Sisterhood of the Nail Polish Stained Pants. I really appreciate it! I'm trying to update as frequently as possible so I hope I'm doing an ok job at that. Also, to answer a question, no, I don't love disappointing my reviewers, not at all. There's a reason for everything I write and none of it is written to make you upset or angry so I'm really sorry if I did do that! Anyways, I'm sure you want to find out what happens with everyone so I won't bore you any longer

"What…?"

"It's nothing personal, it's just that…"

Dana stared at Logan, her mind frozen. She was unable to think or grasp on to the words that had just slipped out of his mouth. No sooner had they gotten together did he want to break up again. Why? What possible reason could there be? Had she done something wrong? What had she done? Whatever it was, she could make it better. She just had to stay loyal to him. That was all…

"I think it'd be best if we took a break."

"But… why?"

Logan looked away. Her eyes were burning into his skin and he couldn't take the pressure of it. He had to tell her though. How could he keep it from her? The only way he could protect her was to break her heart. He felt tears tickle his eyes so he quickly put his head down and said, "Sorry, Dana. It's just the way it has to be." Then he stood up and ran out of the room.

Dana sat on the bed, stunned. She sat there for a long time. Minutes ticked by, then hours, and then night time came. She just sat there, feeling her heart pounding in her chest. Her face was rather pale and then all of a sudden, she just collapsed. She closed her eyes and fell asleep. She didn't cry that night. She had done too much crying before. This time she would solve things logically.

Zoey re-read Chase's letter for the hundredth time as she walked to her math class. She couldn't stop thinking about him. She had broken up with him because things had gotten too complicated, but now she wasn't sure. On one hand, she still liked him a lot, but on the other, she wasn't sure if she was ready to get caught in the tangle of emotions.

Lost in her thoughts, Zoey didn't notice how fast she was walking and ending up running right into Quinn. The two girls both lost balance and fell to the ground, their bags thumping down beside them. Quinn's glasses skittered off and Zoey quickly picked them up. The two girls stood up, brushing themselves off.

"Sorry about that," Zoey apologized. "I was lost in thought."

"So was I," Quinn admitted. "I haven't seen or heard from Michael in ages. I think he might be avoiding me, but why would he do that?" The two of them picked up their bags and started walking together. Quinn continued to talk about Michael and Zoey continued to think about Chase. The two boys had the girls' heads reeling.

Just then a fellow classmate, Tammy Ale, walked up to them, holding a shopping bag. She smiled and said, "Hey guys. Have you seen Dana?" When they both shook their heads she said, "Oh well, if you see her can you give this to her?" She held the shopping bag out and Zoey took it.

"What is it?" she asked.

"I found the bag on the street," Tammy said. "I looked inside and there was a pair of pants that had her name on it so I figured it belonged to her." She glanced at her watch. "Hey, I'll see you two later. I've got to get to class." She waved and hurried off, leaving Zoey and Quinn with the shopping bag. They both exchanged glances and pulled the pants out of it.

Quinn gasped. It was the Pants. After first semester had ended, all four of the girls had written their name on the Pants and something memorable. And there, in bold red letters, was the name DANA CRUZ. Zoey frowned as she folded the pants and stuffed them back into the bag.

"Why," Zoey said, asking a question that Quinn was also thinking about. "Would Dana leave the Pants, something that's so dear and important to all of us, in a shopping bag on a street?"

They stood there, thinking. Then the bell rang and they went to class. They would talk to Dana about it later.

After working, Nicole would come back to the store every day to see her outfit. Betsy had become a close friend of hers and after her shift the two of them would go out for some juice or take a walk in the park. One day, when Nicole came to the store, Betsy wasn't there. Instead there was an incredibly cute boy. His name was Josh.

"Hi, I'm Josh," said the incredibly cute boy.

"Where's Betsy?" Nicole asked, although at the moment she didn't care where Betsy was.

"She had a family emergency to take care of," Josh said, smiling, showing his perfectly square white teeth. "I'm filling in for her." He studied Nicole's face and said, "You're Nicole Bristow, right? Betsy told me that you came every day. Nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet me too," Nicole said her eyes glazed over. She took Josh's extended hand and shook it, feeling her heart pound faster. She was taking snapshots in her head so she would never forget what he looked like. His dark hair that fell into his hazel coloured eyes so softly… his fair skin and his strong jaw… and his teeth! Oh my gosh, his teeth were just beautiful. Nicole could stare all day at them… but, of course, she wouldn't.

Nicole spent hours at the store. Josh continued to assist her while getting other store employees to help the other customers. Nicole was thrilled at the prospect of having a hot guy around her. It had been ages since this had happened. After his shift was over, he invited her to a nearby restaurant for some lunch. Of course, she accepted.
