Chase and Zoey drove out of the bad neighborhood and into the city.
"So? Where do you you want to go eat breakfast?". Chase asked.
"Any place you choose, it's fine with me". Zoey said looking at him.
Chase nodded and continued driving until he stopped in a little cafe shop. Both of them got out and hand in hand, walked inside the shop and sat down in one of the tables. A waitress came and took their order.
"Hi my name is Marley and I'll be your waitress for today. What can I get you?". She asked as she took her little notebook out, ready to write.
"For her, bring her 2 strawberry Waffle's with an ice Javachino, and as for me a cup of black coffee". Chase said and the waitress nodded.
"Alright, I'll be back in just a sec". She smiled and quickly left. Chase sighted and started playing with the syrup swirling around. Zoey just started at him with surprised face.
"You still remember?". Zoey said.
"Remember what?". Chase asked confused, almost dropping the syrup.
"Of my morning Javachino". Zoey smiled.
"Well you got me used to it! When we were boyfriend and Girlfriend back at PCA, you used to wake me everyday at 6:00 in the morning to meet at the PCA Coffee Carts".
Both of them looked at each other and burst into laughter. They talked for a bit until their food arrived.
"Here you go". The waitress said as she placed the stuff in the table.
"Are you sure there's nothing that I can get you?". She flirty asked Chase.
Zoey looked at Chase with a serious face. He felt the tension grow, so he looked at the waitress and responded.
"No thanks. I'm good with my coffee. There's nothing else I rather be doing than having breakfast with the most beautiful girlfriend I could ever ask for". Chase said looking at Zoey.
"Oh? Well Umm... Enjoy". She told them faking a smile and feeling a little embarrassed as she left to another table.
"That little sunk bag!". Zoey Rolling her eyes, whispering under her breath.
"Zoey!?". Chase asked surprised.
"Didn't you see! She was all over you?". Zoey said a bit angry.
Chase drank some of his coffee and layed it down so he could replay.
"I saw. That's why I layed the law here. You know, before you got all angry and ripped her head off". Chase joked.
Zoey gave him a teasing smile as he drank more of his coffee.
"Umm? Are you sure you don't want to eat something?". Zoey asked.
"Nah, I don't usually eat breakfast. It makes me really nauseous. But don't mind me, you enjoy your food". Chase told her.
Just then two guys entered the coffee shop and Chase quickly recognized them. He tensed up a little almost choking on his coffee.
"Are you okay?". Zoey asked, as she swallowed her food.
"Yeah?...". Chase responded, not taking his eyes of the two man who sat a couple of tables away. Zoey turned herself around and recognized the two men.
She quickly turned around and whispered.
"I know who those guys are! They were with Eric back when you found us at the alley!". Zoey said and Chase nodded.
The two guys ordered their food and when the waitress left, one of the men recognized Chase. He nudged his partner and he looked directly into Chase's eyes. They stood up and began walking towards their table.
"Look who the trash man left behind!? Chase Matthews! And his lovely girlfriend!". One of the man told Chase.
"Hi John, Carlos. It's nice to see you too". Chase replied not making eye contact with them.
"How's life treating you? I bet really, really good, since your not behind bars like Eric is!". Carlos said.
"This is all your fault Matthews!". John said slapping Chase on the cheek. He quickly got up from his chair and stared at him, face to face. Zoey also stood up, just in case things got out off hand.
"You both know it wasn't my fault! I wasn't even there!". Chase told John.
"True but if wasn't for your dead girlfriend resisting, he would be here, with us, but no! She wanted to maintain herself loyal to you! How pathetic!". Carlos said with a laugh.
Chase grabbed him from his shirt and pulled him closer to him roughly.
"Watch your mouth Carlos!". Chase angrily told him.
"Let me go Matthews! You don't want to mess with me!". Carlos said as he tried to let himself go but Chase held him tight.
"Hey Chase? We found out you have some alcohol problems". John said as he took his square bronze wine bottle and opened it.
"Let me help you". John said as he splashed Chase in the face with wine.
Chase gasped as well as Zoey and the rest of the people in there. He let go of Carlos as he started wiping his face off.
"How you like that!". Carlos laughed while John stood there with a victory smile.
Chase licked his lips and looked at John like if he was going to kill him in an instance.
"Chase? Let's leave". Zoey suggested.
Chase looked at her, his eyes softening. He then looked back at the two men.
"I don't feel bad for what happened to Eric. He deserves what get gets! Now, I know you guys don't have money to pay for your food, so here you can take our table and our left overs". Chase told the men as he tapped the table.
He pushed the two of them aside and grabbed Zoeys hand. When they began walking away, Carlos pushed Chase, making him stumble forward a little. He turned around, but before he could do something, Ron appeared and stood in front.
"Hold it!". Ron told Carlos and John.
"Who are you!?". John asked.
Ron took a badge put and showed him.
"Mr. Police officer Ron to you! What's going on here!". Ron asked
John and Carlos looked each other and looked at Ron nervously.
"No Mr. Police officer Ron, we were just leaving". Carlos said as he started walking out of the restaurant. Ron turned to John who stupidly stood there.
"Oh yeah? Leaving!". John said and ran out of the coffee shop.
Chase tried to walk towards them but Zoey held his hand tight and gave him a "Your not going anywhere" look.
"You guys okay?". Ron asked.
"Yeah, we're fine. What are you doing here?". Zoey sweetly replied.
"Chase asked me to come". Ron pointed at Chase.
"Yeah, I need you to go with him. I have some problems I have to fix by myself". Chase told Zoey.
"Are you leaving find those guys!? Because if you are I'm not going to let...". Zoey began but Chase interrupted.
"No, I'm not going after them...
yet I could... But I have some important things to do, that's why you need to go with Ron". Chase explained.
"I can help you". Zoey said but Chase shook his head saying no.
"It's actually a surprise. For you. So you can't help me". Chase replied giving her a sweet kiss on her forehead and beginning to walk away.
"Chase?". Zoey wined and he turned around.,
"I promise I'll be back before you leave tonight. Ron take good care of her". Chase said and Ron nodded as he left the coffee shop.
"Shall we go Mrs. Brooks? Or you want to stay and finish breakfast?". Ron asked.
"No, let's go". Zoey said as she grabbed her black backpack and left with Ron.
When they got outside Ron open the door for her.
" You really love Chase... don't you?". Ron asked teasingly.
"Does it show?". Zoey asked with a smile.
"It doesn't only show. When I look at you two, it makes me smile, because your love for Chase and the love he has for you is just one of a kind".
"I'm very fortunate to have Chase in my life and I hope to have him for a long , long, long time". Zoey smirked as she got in the car and Ron drove away to the mansion.
"So, any idea of what Chase is planning to do?". Ron asked.
"Not at all. I hate surprises". Zoey said and Ron smirked.
"Well I'm sure your going to love it". He commented and Zoey turned her attention to him.
"You know something, don't you?". Zoey asked teasingly.
Ron smiled.
"I do know something, but I promise him to keep it a secret, so you'll have to wait until tonight". Ron said and Zoey sighted, and leaned back on her seat.
"Your going to absolutely love it, I , promise you". Ron assured and she let out a small smile as they continued the drive. When they got to the mansion, she went shopping with Lola and Quinn, while Alan, Logan, and Michael prepared everything for the goodbye party tonight. The girls bought a lot of clothes since Logan gave them their credit card. Lola and Quinn seem happy and having a good time, but Zoey seem a little bit lost. All she could think of is Chase and his surprise. It was about 9:30 and the party Logan and Quinn had planned had begun. They were outside the mansion, eating and just having a good time.
"Lola what time are we supposed to leave to the airport?". Zoey asked.
"Like in 5 minutes. Ron and Alan are helping us putting the luggage in the van". Lola said. She saw Zoey sight and look at the front gate.
"No sign of Chase uh? I'm sure he'll be here in time to say goodbye, don't worry". Lola told her laying a hand on her shoulder.
"Yeah...". Zoey said as she looked once again at the gate.
Then, Michael, Logan, and Alan came towards them.
"Okay so everything is the van ready to go". Logan said.
There was an awkward silence for a moment until Michael broke it.
"Umm if we want to get there on time we should get going now". Michael said looking at his watch.
Quinn came out of the house and Lola looked sadly at Zoey. She had that same look, she had years ago. When Chase didn't came to say goodbye to her when she was leaving to England.
She breathed in and sighted nodding.
"Okay... Let's go". Zoey said as she and Lola made their way to the limo. Quinn looked at her phone nervously and quickly turned her attention back at the gate when she saw Chase's car enter and making a quick stop. He got out of the car with a worry expression as he ran towards his friends.
"Wait! Wait!". Chase said almost out of breath.
Lola turned around smiling as she heard Chases voice. She then turned back to see Zoey who was already inside the limo.
"Zoey!? Come out here". Lola told her and she did. Still not noticing Chase, she looked at Lola.
"What!?".
Lola pointed behind Zoey.
"Look".
Zoey turned her head and and saw Chase standing there breathing in and out heavily. She smiled and turned herself completely and ran towards him. Chase stood up straight just in time to catch Zoey. They both hugged and Chase swirled around.
"I'm so sorry I got here late. I just had to finish some... Issues I had". Chase said as he sat her down on the ground, holding her hands.
"It's okay, the good thing here is that your here". Zoey said squeezing his hands.
"Chase? Why don't you tell Zoey your surprise". Alan asked with a smirk.
Zoey turned to see Alan, who was smiling. She then turned to Chase who was looking down at her.
"What's the surprise?". Zoey asked him.
"First, I want to reveal here, to all of our friends, our little secret that we had been playing since this morning". Chase said and Michael and the rest turned their full attention to them.
"What secret? Which clearly I wasn't asked to be part of?". Michael said raising an eyebrow.
"Me and Zoey decided to give us another chance". Chase said giving Zoey a side hug
"We're boyfriend and girlfriend again". Zoey added hugging Chase.
"What!?". All of their friend said surprised.
"I can't believe I wasn't part of this". Michael told himself disappointedly.
"Congratulations!". Everyone yelled and gave them a group hug.
"Anyways, this isn't the the real surprise!?". Chase said and Everyone separated from the hug and turned to see Chase.
"You all now that I've known Zoey since I was in eight grade. We became best friend's, then boyfriend and girlfriend, then we separated but destiny wants us to be together no matter what". Chase said but Logan interrupted.
"But she's leaving. You seriously think a long distance relationship is going to work if it didn't work when you were in England and she was at PCA?". Logan asked.
"I think it can work if she looking forward to something special". Chase said with a smile and everyone looked at him confused except Alan and Ron.
"Something special? Like what?". Quinn asked.
Chase took a small black box and knelt down on one knee.
"Zoey? Would you make me the happiest guy on earth and tell me that you'll marry me?". Chase told Zoey as he showed her the ring.
Zoey gasped with a smile on her face as Lola and Quinn covered their mouths and the guys were mouth open.
"Yes! Yes! Yes! I'll marry you!". Zoey said and Chase stood up and took her hand. He slid the ring on her finger and both of them shared a kiss and a hug.
"Umm guys? I don't want to ruin this beautiful moment, but, It's getting late for us to leave to the airport?". Lola said looking at her watch.
"I have to get going, but now I don't want to leave. I want to stay with you Chase". Zoey told Chase and he smiled.
"And I want to stay with you, but you have to go and finish college back in Washington. I'll finish my here with Logan, and Quinn, and before you know it, we'll be back together, we just have to wait 5 more months". Chase explained.
"Five months. That sounds eternal. But I'll wait for you! That's how badly I want to marry you". Zoey told him with a chuckle.
"That's good to hear". He told her.
He gave long sight
"It's time for you to go. I'll call you tomorrow to see how the trip was, okay?". Chase said and she hug him.
"Okay. I'll be waiting for your call". Zoey said as she separated from the hug.
"I love you". She told him kissing him
"I love you too Zo". Chase told her, his voice breaking a little and trying to keep his tears inside.
With their hands still interlaced Zoey began walking away from him and they had to let go. Zoey got to the limo she took one more look at Chase who was fighting really hard the tears by now, but managed to smile at her and wave.
She wave goodbye and got inside the limo. Lola followed her and then Michael. Logan, Quinn, and Alan stood behind Chase as the limo began to exit the mansion. Chase looked down giving a long sight
