Chapter 5

"ZOEY, WAIT!" Dana yelled but it was too late. Zoey slowly opened the door. Zoey let out a scream. Zoey was panting, but let them in. Dana rolled her eyes, and got up.

"CHASE, MICHAEL, LOGAN! WHAT'RE YOU DOING HERE AT 1 IN THE MORNING?!" Zoey managed to say between her gasps. Chase closed the door, and locked it firmly.

"Please. We're not even awake." Michael said, lying on the floor. Chase nodded.

"Logan MADE us wake up and told us we had to look after you guys tonight." Chase added, and fell to the floor.

"Hey, it's important. Dana, can I tell them?" Logan asked, looking over at the girl who had a confused and scared look on her face.

"Go ahead." Dana muttered, and kicked the bottom of Nicole's matress.

"NICOLE! YOU MIGHT WANNA LISTEN TO THIS!" Dana yelled, and Nicole woke up.

"Dana, why did- hey are we having a sleep over?" Nicole asked, with a smile on her face.

"No, we are not having a sleep over!" Michael suddenly yelled. Nicole climbed down from her top bunk, and sighed.

"Sorry, I get a little cranky when I wake up at one in the morning." Michael said, hanging his head. Chase nodded.

"He does get a little cranky." Chase said, in a whisper. Dana rolled her eyes as Logan began explaining the calls and IM's. Zoey gasped when he finished.

"So that means... I just..." Zoey muttered. Nicole yawned.

"Talked to the guy and got him mad." Dana finished with a sigh. Chase gasped, and sat on the spare chair lying in the corner, as the gang sat down in a circle on the floor.

"So what are we supposed to do?" Nicole asked, with another yawn. "Besides try not to sleep?"

"Well, that's the point. When I told Logan the guy already said..." Dana whispered, unable to finish. Logan took her arm, and smiled while trying to cheer her up.

"And since we just told you, that made it even worse." Logan added, as Dana leaned her head on his shoulder. Just as if it was 'on cue', the phone rang. For a second, no one dared to pick it up, but Dana built up the curage. She calmy walked over to the phone, and clicked the answer button.

"H-hello?" Dana trembled, sitting back down with her friends. There was a pause, and just as Dana was about to hang up, the voice returned.

"I. Told. You. Not. To. Tell. Them. Now Logan is in danger because of you." the male said over the phone and Dana came to tears.
"NO! YOU CAN'T DO THAT! DON'T YOU TO A DAMN THING TO HIM! SCREW WITH ME! I DON'T CARE!" Dana yelled, chocking back tears. They looked at crying Dana, who was trying to hang up the phone but it didn't work.

"Alright. You said it. Step outside and we'll work this out." said the heavy male voice. Dana smashed her cellphone to the floor, and wiped her tears.

"He wanted Logan... so I told him he could take it out on me." Dana said, shallowly breathing. Logan groaned, and took Dana into his arms.

"Are you that stupid?! Don't you know you're more important than me?" Logan asked, in a whisper. Zoey and Nicole broke into 'aw!'s, as Chase and Michael snored.

"This shouldn't be about you Logan. He wants me." Dana said, tearing herself out of Logan's comfort.

"Dana, you can't be serious..." Nicole's voice trailed off. Zoey gasped.

"DANA CRUZ, YOU GO OUT THERE OVER MY DEAD BODY!" Logan yelled. Zoey smiled deeply, and sighed. Dana shrugged, and rolled her eyes.

"Fine, let's go to sleep then." Dana mumbled, and climbed into her bed, and Zoey and Nicole got in theirs. Michael was already asleep, snoring louder than ever.

"HEY! What about us?!" Chase asked, as Zoey turned off her light. Dana snickered, and closed her eyes.

"Go into whoever's bed you want. I don't care." Zoey said, and made room just incase Chase would get into her bed. Chase climbed in, and let Zoey go in the inside. Logan jumped into Dana's bed, but she didn't care. Dana pulled the cover over him, and gave him her other pillow. When the others went to sleep, they began talking.

"So are you scared?" Logan whispered, with a smile on his face. Dana ignored him, but slid closer beside him. Close enough to feel his breath.

"So what? I can't be scared, Logan?" Dana finally replied, with a sigh. Logan wrapped his arms around her neck.
"Don't be. You have me, Dana. Isn't that enough?" Logan joked, with a chuckle. Dana sighed, and rested her head on his chin. Maybe Logan's cover was a jerk. Maybe he was actually better than what she thought of him.

"Dana..." Logan said, with a frown. Dana raised her eyebrows in response. "You don't think I'm in any real danger, right?"

"No. I might be though." Dana said, and the two of them fell asleep like that.
