A/N: Thanks so much for all of your support; it means a lot to me. This is going to be the last chapter for about a month, because I will be going to sleep away camp and will have no internet access, but I will try to squeeze in two more chapters, but this will most likely be the last one. I'll work on the story when I'm at camp, so I'll have the next few chapters up fairly quickly when I return. Thanks again for all the reviews and for reading this story. If anybody has suggestions, I'd be more than happy to take them into account.
Disclaimer: Pshh… I freaking wish.

There was a knock at the door as I was pulling a lavender babydoll top over my head.
"Come in!" I yelled, brushing on some mascara and turning toward the door to see Michael walking in. "Oh, hey," I said, smiling unforcefully for the first time in days. He smiled back at me, and shut the door.
"You look pretty," he notes, sitting on my bed. I smile at him again, and sit next to him.
"Thanks," I chirp, then turn serious. "So… how are you?"
"Lisa admitted it. She said that she and Vince were hooking up." He sounds heartbroken. I put my arm around him and rest my head on his shoulder.
"How did this happen to us? We're good people," I whisper. He wraps his arm around my waist and pulls me closer.
"You'll have fun on your girls' day with Zoey and Quinn," he assures me, rubbing my back. "You should get down there now; they're probably wondering where you are." I smile at him, and kiss him on the cheek, then get up and race downstairs, suddenly excited to see what Quinn has planned for me and Zoey. They're both waiting at the bottom of the stairs, Zoey looking impatient and Quinn looking really happy.
"Hey, guys," I greet them.
"Hey," Zoey mumbles.
"Hi, Lola," Quinn chirps happily, escorting us out the door and into Logan's car.
"Logan's letting you use his car?" I ask, astonished. Logan treats his car like his baby, and he never lets anyone touch it. But why Quinn?
"Oh, um… yeah… I guess this was just one of his random nice gestures…" she says slowly, backing out of the extremely long driveway.
"So… what are we gonna do?" Zoey questions from the passenger seat.
"We're just gonna have a girls' day, you know, get our nails done, go shopping, and just not think about boys. I think you two deserve a break from that," she explains, and I smile and nod. Because really, when was the last time the three of us had a girls' day? It's been a really long time. We've all been absorbed with guy stuff, like I started dating Vince, but then we broke up, and Zoey has the whole Chase vs. James thing, and Quinn…. Well, I don't really know what she's been up to, but she has been kind of secretive lately.
"Thanks, Quinn," Zoey says quietly. "I think we all need this. And I keep forgetting to ask… how are you with Mark?"
"Oh, I figured out I was way over Mark before he broke up with me," she shrugs.
"Well, why did you stay with him then?" I ask. She shrugs again.
"Because, at that time, he was the only boy who accepted me for being different. I thought I wouldn't find someone else," she explains, focusing her eyes on the road ahead.
"Wait… does this mean you have found another guy?" Zoey asks, her eyes widening and suddenly sounding perkier. "Quinn, is there something you're not telling us? Do we know him? Is he cute? What color eyes does he have?"
"NO!" Quinn yells a little too quickly. "I'm sorry… I meant that – well, um, I um, realized there will be a guy. And that Mark probably won't be my other boyfriend! Oh look, I should probably get some gas," she pulls the car over to the nearest gas station, gets out, and slams the door. Zoey turns around to face me and raises her eyebrows.
"There's something going on with her," I state, glancing at Quinn, who was clumsily putting gas in the car and muttering to herself.
"Yep. And we're gonna find out what it is."
I'm sorry that was so short! I just wanted to fit in another chapter before I leave, but I don't have a lot of spare time on my hands… so I hope you guys liked it and review please! And I'll see you all in a month!
