You know, I'm never sure if you're supposed to write a DC for each chapter...

Disclaimer: I do not own Zoey 101)

Previously...

"Umm...Actually, Chase...I..."

"Ok. Well...it's occured...to me, that...I...I've never actually asked...you to, you know..." Zoey gave Chase a 'go on' look. "Wouldlyouliketobemygirlfriend?"

Zoey bit her lip. "Umm...Actually, Chase..."

Zoey bit her lip. "Umm...Actually, Chase...I--"

"I knew it," Chase slowly turned his body so he wasn't facing Zoey anymore. " You only like me as a best friend and--" Before Chase could finish his sentence, she grabbed his hand and spun him around, pressing her lips to his. Chase's mind took a while to comprehend what was happening, but when he finally realized what was going on, he immediately kissed back. Realizing she never actually answered Chase's question, Zoey reluctantly pulled away, leaving a few centimetres of space between them.

"I wouldn't like to. I'd love to." Zoey replied quietly, then closed the gap again. They went on kissing for God knows how long, when a scream, which during the last year had been dubbed the 'Nicole Scream', was heard.

"OH MY GOD!" The couple turned their heads to see Nicole, with bright eyes and a HEEUUUGGEE smile on her face.

"Errrmm...Okay...awkward..." Nicole squealed excitedly (again) then screamed out,

"EMMA!!! COME OVER HERE!" A girl who looked almost like a younger version of Nicole walked over with her head down and her hands in her pockets. The girl raised her head a bit and smiled when she saw the two teens.

"Hi. You must be Chase and Zoey." She greeted them.

"We are. And taking into consideration the name Nicole just yelled out, you must be Emma." Chase stated as he removed his hands from Zoey's waist and stuck it out in front of him. Emma shook his hand politely, although, she never understood the purpose of shaking hands...(A/N: I don't either...I mean, why do you shake someone's hand when you meet them? At least, there should be some cool handshake...just shaking someone's hand up and down is so boring...)

"Okay! Well, let's put the bags in the car!" Nicole voiced as she grabbed one of Zoey's suitcases and rolled it past her, but not before whispering to her, 'We are SO talking later.'

"Thanks, Mrs. Bristow." Zoey thanked Nicole's mom as she handed Zoey a plate of chocolate chip cookies. The three teenage girls climbed up the stairs up to Nicole's room. The second the door was closed, Nicole started to ramble.

"OH. MY. GOD. Zoe, so are you and Chase together now? What am I saying? Of COURSE you're together! Oh my gosh, Zoey, how could you do this to me? I've been waiting THREE YEARS to see you and Chase get together, and you wait until I'm back home in Kansas?? OOO so how did you guys get together??? Tell me EVERYTHING! I mean--"

"So, Zoey. What's going on with you and Chase?" Emma cut in, basically summarizing up what Nicole was trying to say.

"Well, he asked me to be his girlfriend, and I said yes."

"Come on. There's gotta be more!" Emma exclaimed, trying to get a little more gossip.

"Wait...Not trying to be rude or anything, but how do you know about me and Chase?" Emma nodded towards Nicole, who had quickly lost interest in the conversation and was now reading a J-14 magazine and munching hungrily on a cookie. Zoey shook her head, smiling. Of course. I should've thought of that.

"So, anyways, are you and Chase the same age?" Zoey nodded.

"Well, actually, basically the same age. He's about four months older than--" Nicole had shot up from her beanbag chair and had started to scream.

"OH MY GOD! They're making a THIRD High School Musical! I just LOVE that movie! Zac Efron is SOOOO HOT! I wish I played Gabriella! I'm so jealous of Vanessa Anne Hudgens, she gets to KISS him! OOO did you hear, when they were making the--"

"NICOLE! We already know that. Remember, they announced it on the Disney Channel like three days ago?" Nicole just looked at her sister blankly. Emma sighed. " Nevermind..."

"So, Zoey what's going on with you and--" Nicole had begun to resume the previous conversation but was cut off when she heard her dog start to bark, and almost in the same second, Chase barging into the room and starting to yell.

"NICOLE! YOUR DOG IS RABID! I was on my way back from the kitchen from getting a big cookie, right? I'm going towards the living room to watch tv, I pass the bathroom, and your dog is there FOAMING AT THE MOUTH! Then he starts barking at me! I mean, what--"

"Chase..."

"...guess I can understand--"

"Chase..."

"...But, seriously, I--" This time, Chase was cut off by Zoey's lips against his. Just as quickly as she started the kiss, she pulled back then yelled,

"SHUT UP!" In his face. "Go ahead, Emma."

"Our dog eats toothpaste." Emma giggled. Chase relaxed a little bit.

"Oh, thank God. Hey, The Simpsons is on right now. You guys want to come down and watch?" Chase inquired, already halfway out the door. The three girls shook their heads as Chase nodded in reply, closing the door and scampering down the stairs.

"Hey girls," Mrs. Bistow poked her head in the room. "I'm going to go out to the gym. You want anything while I'm out?" The three girls shook their heads.

"Thanks anyways, Mrs. Bristow." Zoey added, politely. Nicole's mom gave a gentle nod and closed the door.

"So come on, Zoe. You gotta talk sometime." Zoey sighed and began retelling all about the previous days' events.

Meanwhile...

Drew was in a telephone booth, flipping through the phone book. He had an evil glint in his eye and was muttering angrily under his breath.

"This'll teach Steve not to mess with me." A car pulled up to the curb behind him but he didn't pay much attention to it. A woman with a slim figure and shoulder length brown hair stepped out of the vehicle, chatting away on the phone. There was one word she said that made his ears perk up.

"...Zoey and Chase, Nicole's little friends are visiting at our place for a while...No, not the summer lake house. We're in that house on that property that used to be a farm, it's in the country and it's sort of isolated from everything ...Yes, I like it very much. There are no malls for Nicole and Emma to go off to, and our family can spend a little time together..."

He grinned an evil, toothy grin. I'll start in the next day or two. But first...

I need some rum.

(A/N: You know, I realized there was a lot of characters cutting other characters off in this chapter:P And when I read this over, it seemed kinda choppy. Like the sentences didn't flow togther or something. I mean, it all made sense, but...ANYWAYS...Thanks so much for reading, hope you liked it!)
