Hey, sorry it's been a while. I ended up not feeling well for a few days, and then this week I had more hours at work... yay. Well, yeah, yay for more money! haha. Anywho... thanks to my faithful reviewers! Y'all are awesome! This chapter was fun to write, 'cause now we get to see a little of the spark on Logan's side of the Lola/Logan relationship happening in this story. Whoo-hoo! :D

So, read on my friends!

Chapter 5:

"I like your outfit."

Lola turned to the voice at her right; her eyes widened as she realized the words had come from the one and only Vince Blake. He just had to set up his yoga mat next to her. He looked at her and smiled, she turned her head, looking away from him. "Hhmph!"

"Is there a problem?"

"Yeah, could you not stand next to me like that?"

"Sure," he said, ignoring the venom in her voice. "How would you like me to stand? Like this?" He puffed out his chest, resting his hands on his hips like a male model. "Maybe like this?" He posed in his famous 'Vince Blake is Awesome' pose from when he was the quarterback of the football team. "Either of those work for you?"

His 'charm' had no effect on Lola. She stopped stretching for a moment to look at him. "How about you stand at the bottom of a swimming pool? For like half an hour?"

"Wow, it almost seems like you hate my guts."

Lola turned and continued to stretch. "Oh, well I never meant it to seem like I hate your guts."

"You didn't?"

"No, I meant to make it like, way clear that I hate your guts."

Vince smiled. "And now you have."

"Good," Lola said plastering a fake smile on her face.

"You're cute."

Strands of her brown hair flew in her face as she looked up at him. "Don't call me cute. I don't wanna be called 'cute' by you."

"Any reason?" Vince asked crouching down next to her.

"Yeah, 'cause you beat up my friends!"

He paused, looking away for a second, remembering the bully he was his previous year at PCA. "Listen, I've changed, alright?" He stood up. "I'm a different person now."

Lola rolled her eyes. "Oh please, a person can't go from being an obnoxious jerk to a good guy in one year."

"I'm standing here!"

"Yeah, wish you weren't."

Vince crouched down to her level once more. "Look I'm really sorry about what I did to your friends, but come on, I got expelled for crying out loud! And that's not enough?"

"Nope."

"So what's gonna make you happy? You want to see me get beat up?"

Lola threw on another fake smile. "That'd be awesome!"

He smiled, even though he knew hers was fake. "Alright." He stood up, holding his arms out. "Back up now." He continued by punching himself in the gut and giving himself a few slaps in the face, "Now I'm gonna finish myself off with one of these…" He then ended with a flick to his forehead, falling down to the ground for effect. He smiled over at Lola. "There. Now I have been hit, slapped, and thunked. You like me?"

"Let's see… no."

Vince was about to respond when their yoga teacher came onto the field to begin class. He stood up alongside Lola, starting their sun salutations with the rest of the class. As he leaned over he looked at her. "Listen, after class why don't you let me buy you a smoothie and we'll talk, okay?"

"… and that's pretty much what happened," Lola said before taking a bite of her fruit salad. She had wanted to tell her friends about her encounter with Vince Blake a few days ago, but she wanted to tell them all at once, instead of three separate times. Needless to say, they weren't happy she waited, but they did understand why she didn't. Lola looked up at her friends, who were still staring at her. "What?"

"Well, did you talk to him after class?" Logan asked.

She scoffed. "No. I told him I'd rather have Quinn try to clone me in my sleep. No offense Quinn."

Quinn waved her hand. "None taken."

Logan leaned back, looking more relaxed. "Good."

"Yeah, now we don't have to worry about him bugging us," Michael said, tossing a tater pop into his mouth.

Lola cringed. "Well, you guys don't."

"What do you mean?" Quinn asked.

"Ever since that yoga class he's been following me like a lost puppy!" Lola said, finally getting her frustration with the football player out. "He keeps asking me out and trying to convince me that he's changed." She took a drink of her javaccino before continuing. "If he doesn't stop I'm gonna have to say 'yes' just to make him stop."

Michael shrugged, "What if you tell Dean Rivers that he's not leaving you alone?"

"Yeah, maybe he'll get expelled for harassment," Quinn said with a smirk.

Lola spun her fork in her fruit salad. "Yeah, maybe. But you guys said he seemed like he-" Her eyes shifted to the movement on her left. "Logan, where are you going?"

"For a walk," he answered, not looking back at his friends. It wasn't a total lie, he was walking after all. He just happened to be looking for a certain person as he walked. After about ten minutes, he found the person he was looking for sitting at a table doing homework. "Hey, Blake!"

The quarterback looked up; he nodded at the curly haired brunette walking his way. "Hey, Logo! What's up?"

Logan rolled his eyes at the former nickname Vince used to call him by. He stood in front of the table, across from Vince, placing his hands on the table. "Here's what's up, stop bugging Lola. She doesn't want to go out with you."

Vince took in the glare he was receiving from his former teammate and held up his hands in surrender. "Sorry man, I didn't realize she was your girl. I'll back off."

"Good," Logan said. "I didn't want this to … wait, no. No. Lola's not my girlfriend!"

"She's not?"

"No."

"Well, if she's a free agent…" Vince couldn't help but smirk at the annoyed look on Logan's face, "then me asking her out is fair game, right?" He could almost laugh at the rage in Logan's eyes, but he kept his composure. "Come on Reese! You're the PCA player, you know the rules!"

Logan internally winced. He did have a reputation of having multiple dates a week, but since the departure of both Zoey and Chase, Logan had been spending more time with Lola since Quinn and Michael were always busy. He hadn't even gone on a date in a few weeks.

Vince stood up, putting his books into his bag. He smiled at the shorter boy. "Hey, since you're good friends with Lola, maybe you can put in a good word for me, huh?" He winked. "See you around Logan."

Logan let out a growl he had been holding as Vince walked toward the library. His eyes narrowed at the retreating form of his former bully.

"This isn't over Blake."

.. could that be jealousy coming from our dear Logan? hehe, I'm loving this, and hopefully you are too!

So here's some good news, I'm getting a computer tonight, so I won't have to borrow my mom's to write this anymore... YAY! :D

I miss my desk, badly.

So I think the story will get good from here. And this won't be the last we'll see of Vince... he's probably got another chapter coming up soon.

No offense to Vince, I liked him in the show, but in this story, I'm kinda making him a bad guy again. A 'good' bad guy... if that makes any sense at all... it probably doesn't. Oh well. I tried.

Until next time!

...

Review maybe? :D
