Hey everyone I'm back! I'm sorry for not updating this in a while but you know how busy I am nowadays with schoolwork and the usual. I'm trying to update these as soon as possible, but I can't always update them fast enough especially all these demands to hurry them up. I hope you guys like this chapter so please tell me what you guys think and I love all the reviews/comments I've been getting on Zoe's personality. I kind of based her on my best friend Josi.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything to do with Lab Rats except for this story and my OC's.
"That was totally awesome!" Leo exclaimed jumping up and down in excitement as he squeezed his way through the crowd of teenagers. Smiling widely, I gave Leo a quick hug before I was bombarded with more congratulations from more students, except for that blonde chic that I fought with earlier this week she was glaring at me with so much intensity that I thought she was trying to turn me into ashes through heat vision.
"You guys were absolutely amazing and I think you guys should definitely form a band together," Bree complimented us and I grinned happily as she gave me a high five.
"I bet if you really wanted to you guys could get a record producer to make a few CDs for your band," Adam stated with his usual cheerfulness and Jane beamed at him. If this was an anime show, then I bet there would've been pink hearts forming in her and Adam's eyes right now and I rolled my eyes at the two obvious love birds.
"Never thought I'd live to see the day you wear a dress, Zoe," Leo joked and punched him lightly in the shoulder even though he didn't think it was too light, but then again Leo isn't really known for his strength and endurance.
"Don't get use to it, Dooley, cause this is kind of a one time thing," I retorted and we laughed at my joke. "Where's Chase? Did he ditch Danielle?" I asked Leo quietly as to not disturb Adam and Jane's little love-y dove-y moment and his darkened as he stared at something behind me. I turned around to see Chase walking in with Danielle whose wearing a tight knee-length teal dress with her blonde hair completely straight and so much makeup on her face that I don't even want to begin explaining; it literally caused me to shudder in horror. At least Chase is wearing something appropriate, a white button up dress shirt that kind of hugs his torso enough to show that he's got some muscle on his nerdy body, black jeans and gray high tops.
"Hey Zoe!" Danielle exclaimed happily and for some reason she came up to me wrapping her little chicken wig arms around me in a hug as I stood there looking completely freaked out and disturbed by the fact that she's hugging me. Not to mention the fact that, I DON'T EVEN LIKE THIS CHIC! Also, I BARELY EVEN KNOW THIS GIRL ENOUGH TO ALLOW HER TO HUG ME IN PUBLIC!
"Um…hi Danielle," I greeted her awkwardly and I patted her on the back lightly as I mouthed to Chase to get her off me.
"Hey Danielle would you like to dance now?" Chase asked immediately noticing my anger and she quickly let me go flashing me a fake purely white smile that would've been beautiful if I hadn't known it was fake. I watched as they walked into the middle of the dance floor and Chase started doing a ridiculous dance called 'The Refrigerator' something I couldn't really tell from spending so much energy nearly laughing to death, but then I felt really guilty and bad for Chase after that so I managed to hold in my giggles. The funniest part was when Adam accidentally threw Danielle up into the rafters, which I had no intention of hiding my amusement because I think I was one of the loudest people laughing at the whole dance, but it was even more hilarious when Leo started dancing with a couple of Tasha's friends as back up dancers and Danielle dancing with him.
"I'm gonna go outside. I need some air that doesn't feel heavy and reek with teenage hormone, cheap cologne and cheap perfume," I told Brady and he nodded his head as I walked out of the dance room outside the school sitting on the concrete stairway. I let out a sigh of relief inhaling the crisp and clean air deeply enjoying the beautiful night sky with twinkling stars shining like tiny diamonds and the luminescent white light of the moon shining brightly in the sky. Closing my eyes, I listened to the sounds of nature peacefully for a few moments, but it was pretty short lived when I felt someone's presence behind me and I ignored them for a while until it got annoying so exhaling in annoyance not turning around I confronted them.
"Is there a reason why whoever's behind me is just standing there? If you don't mind, I'd like to be left alone," I retorted annoyed with my eyes closed tightly.
Chase's P.O.V.
"Guys, where's Zoe?" I asked my family and Brady smiled knowingly and told me that she just went outside a few minutes ago so I went outside to look for her. Right now, I just want to hide under a rock for the rest of my life in embarrassment, especially since I saw Zoe laughing pretty hard, but after a while it looked like she was trying to hold it in. I stopped in right my tracks as soon as I stood at the entrance to the school marveling at how amazing looked right there under the moonlight and shining stars. She was just sitting there with her arms wrapped around her knees looking up at the moon with a soft smile on gracing her features as if she didn't have a care in the world. Her dress passes a few inches past her knees and it's navy blue on top with no sleeves, but she's wearing a denim jacket on to cover her bare shoulders, it ends in white ruffles, a black belt around her waist, silver hoop earrings, silver hoop bracelets, silver heart locket, black flats and her red hair is pulled up into a high ponytail.
"Is there a reason why whoever's behind is just standing? If you don't mind, I'd like to be left alone," Zoe retorted annoyed with her eyes closed tightly. I gulped in nervousness and I tried to say something, but nothing would come out and I felt….paralyzed.
"Um….." I trailed trying to find some words to say and Zoe's eyes snapped open in a flash as she turned around to look at me with her bright green eyes, then her annoyed look softened when she saw it was just me.
"Oh, hi Chase. I liked your dance moves with Danielle it really made tonight even more interesting than I thought it would be," Zoe commented smirking as she teased me, but I knew she was only kidding because of the look of amusement in her eyes. Yet, that still didn't stop me from blushing like a red tomato and I stared at my feet in embarrassment. "Don't stress over it, Chase. Life's too short to worry about those sort of things," Zoe reassured me with a comforting smile and I couldn't help, but show her a small smile.
"You guys did really amazing with the song in front of everyone," I managed to respond as I tore my gaze away from my shoes to look into her eyes. She smiled brightly and blushed a light shade of pink.
"Thanks, you look nice tonight," Zoe said with a small smile on her full red lips…come back to Earth, Chase.
"Thanks, you look amazing tonight," I said without thinking and her eyes widened in surprise as my cheeks turned an even brighter shade of red than before.
"You think so?" she asked me softly.
"I know so," I replied without a hint of hesitation in my voice and she beamed at me with a genuine smile.
