A/N: OMFG! (Oh my freaking god!) I've actually updated again! HURRAY! So... This is it. Chase and Zoey are going to have their fight now, but their friends have no idea of this. Except Nicole... I think.. Ugh, I can't remember if I had them tell Nicole if they were going to fight or not. Or did I have Nicole leave before then? I'm too lazy to go and check... I don't think I'll be typing anything about her anyway, so whatever. And, I've decieded to add chapter titles to this story now. YAY! LOL...
Oops.. I went back and reviewed over the chapter before this one real quick to refresh my memory, and I found a typo that I made. I accidentally typed Nicole's name as "Nice". Heh, my bad.
To Jasmine: Thanks!
To GinnyAndDracoForever: No, my cliffhangers shall remain!
To twcklver1: I'm not sure about download, but go to the site YouTube and search for it.
To animexloverxx and Poker Joker who reviews stuff: Correct! 50,000 points for you! What are they good for you may ask? Um... well, I'm pretty sure you can private message people on this site, so you can use them to PM a message to me. This message, you must tell me that you have the points, and select one of my stories. The story you choose, I will immediately drop everything I am doing, unless it's homework, and write an update to that story. So, in short, it's an automatic update to a story. :D And by the way, Poker Joker, it's true, he does say that "Forever" part in 1 of the episodes. I tried to look up which one, but I couldn't find it. But it is in 1 of them. He says it only once. (With the watch and everything)

(A/N: Oh boy. Okay, go easy on me, I'm positive this chapter is going to be hard to write.)
Silence.
That's all there was. Zoey and Chase just stared at each other. They both figured that the other would start the conversation out.
Okay... is she going to say anything at all? Chase wondered. We've been standing here for a few minutes already.
Zoey, however, wasn't planning on starting it. Come on Chase! Say something. We can't just stand here... though, in a way, this silence does kind of help.
Lola, Nicole, Michael, and Logan began to grow slightly bored as they stood in their protective circle. Nicole had begun to sway back and forth on her feet as she watched. Maybe that was Zoey's plan... to keep quiet. I hope so, then we can end this. Meanwhile, Logan was shouting at the two to hurry inside his mind.
More minutes passed by, and still no one spoke. At one point, Chase tried to walk away, but their friend's circle stopped him from going any further.
Chase wasn't sure what he was supposed to do. Apparently Zoey wanted him to talk first since she hadn't said a word. But he finally decided speak, though he was uncertain of what to say. (A/N: Meaning me...)
"So... how about that weather? Pretty nice out today isn't it?" Chase said lightly, shifting his body a little. Zoey wanted to laugh, but kept it held inside. Logan slapped his face in an annoyed fashion while everyone just rolled their eyes and sighed.
"We'll never get anywhere at this rate!" Logan exclaimed.
"Zoey, why did you have to over react like that?" Lola asks her.
"You already know why! I don't need to repeat it." Zoey responded spitefully.
"But that's stupid! That shouldn't make you lose a friendship." She said back.
There was silence between them all again. But this didn't last long as Zoey spoke to Chase next to continue this charade.
"Why did you have to tell me?" she questioned him.
Chase was confused. Since this was all fake, he wasn't sure what she was talking about. "Huh?" he asked, puzzled.
"Why did you have to tell me all of it? We had such a great friendship! Now I can't even be near you without feeling awkward." Zoey asked again.
What is she– Oh that! Ok, now I know what she's talking about. Stupid Chase. "Well, you're the one who kept asking me what it was that text message I accidentally sent to you was. You just had to know!" Chase said, starting to ease into the charade along side Zoey.
"Well, you shouldn't have sent it to me then!" Zoey argued back.
"That's not my fault, Michael's the one who kept pestering me to tell you. I was trying to tell him that I wouldn't do it, but apparently I had sent it you by mistake!" Chase yelled.
"Hey, don't drag me into this." Michael said lightly.
Chase continued on. "You kept asking me what it said, so I told you."
"Of course I had to know! If you had sent me something that made you want to steal from me, then of course I'd be at least a little curious as to what it said. But you didn't have to tell me you know, you could have just kept quiet. I'm sure I would have left it alone after a few days, and things would have gone back to normal." Zoey countered.
"Not you..." Chase said slyly.
"What's that supposed to mean?" She asked.
"You aren't one to forget things. You'll keep it inside for a long time." (A/N: I think that's true... please tell me if I'm mistaken. If it's not true, well, she is in this story. :P)
Zoey frowned a little. She knew this was just a fake argument, but that comment upset her slightly. "Well you don't know that. I might have shook it off."
"Well, you didn't. You had Quinn fix your tekmate, and when she had finally finished it, you read the message on it. I was trying to erase it, but Michael made me come to you, in which he gave you the message to read."
"I said leave me out of this!" Michael told them. But they weren't really listening to him.
Chase continued on again. "This is exactly what I was trying to avoid. And I told him that. That's why I tried to erase the message...again. But then you read the message. And now all of this has happened. And there goes one of the best friendships I've ever had. It makes me unhappy, but I can understand it.
Their friends all watched in silence as the two spat at each other. It wasn't going as they had hoped it would. Nicole had it the worst of all. She was bursting at the seams. What's going on? I don't get any of this! I'm so confused. I thought they liked each other. Why are they arguing like this? This is just going to end badly. I just know it...
"Guys!" Lola butted in. "I'm sure we can fix this. We just need to talk this all through."
"We can't!" Zoey shouted.
Chase noticed some harshness in her voice. He'd sensed it rising throughout the entire argument. I hope she remembers this is supposed to be fake. "No, it's too late for that. But I don't care anymore. I'm just going to say this one time before I leave."
Various people from around the area had started to watch the teens argue. They weren't the kind of people to be yelling, at least to each other, so this came as a surprise at to them all.
Chase hadn't noticed this, but if he had, he wouldn't have cared anyway. "Zoey Brooks. I love you!"
This was when Zoey snapped. She completely forgot that they were faking the whole thing. Her current emotion that she was pretending to have the entire time took over her mind...and body. Zoey wasn't sure what happened. It all seemed like a blur to her now. It just happened...
"DON'T SAY THAT!" Zoey screeched at him. There was a loud smack, crack, and grunt sound next. Everyone in a fifty foot radius around them were shocked. Some of the girls in the area screamed. The remaining girls, and the surrounding guys just gasped.
"ZOEY!" Lola shouted at her, eyes wide in disbelief. The other three were tending to Chase.
Zoey backed up slowly, looking at her hands. "Chase..." she said lightly. What have I done?... She took one last look at her friend, her face scared, and ran away.
Zoey wasn't sure where she was going. She just ran away very quickly, her eyes releasing tears as she ran. I'm sorry Chase!
-------------------------------------------------
A/N: Woah! Now if that's not a cliffhanger, then I don't know what is. Can you guess what happened? And no, there was no death. So don't think that! Alrighty, this story is very, very close to ending. About 1 to 2 chapters remaining. Probably just 1, depends... Sorry for the long wait again. School and stuff... Darn U.S. History teacher has been giving us so much homework lately! Don't worry... I plan on trying to update the next chapter very soon. And also, last Tuesday, when I went bowling, I shot a game of 190. :D But it would have been a score of 211 if I had managed to hit that spare on the 9th frame. Danged sleepers! And yes, this is a somewhat short chapter... deal with it... :P
So... come on, review! You know you want to.
