A/N: Hey guys! I know it's been a while since I've updated, but that's only because I wanted to make the ending to this really, really good, but it probably won't be. I doubt myself too much. I'm a little sad because this is the last chapter, and I'm gonna miss this story. But I want to start on another Zoey 101 chaptered one, so if y'all have any prompts or ideas I could write about, I would absolutely love to hear them, because I have zero ideas. Okay, okay, enough of my rambling, time for the beginning to the end.

Chapter Ten

Michael

"So… it's a date, then," I smile at Lisa, and she grins back at me.

"I'll see you there," she winks at me, dropping our hands and walking away. I felt happy, but it wasn't the gushy, tingling feeling I'd gotten when we first started dating. Across the hall, I see Lola walk into her dorm. I'm about to say hello when I remembered that it would only hurt. I can't believe she already liked someone else, right when I was about to tell her I loved her. Well, I guess it was better than her rejecting me to my face. When I finally reach the lounge, a hand yanks me inside, into a corner.

"Zoey." I blink, surprised. She glares at me.

"Why aren't you talking to Lola?" she accuses.

"What are you talking about?" I lie.

"You're avoiding her, and she's all sad about it. And plus, how could you get back together with Lisa? She cheated on you and broke Lola's heart!" she shouts. I don't make eye contact with her. "Michael," she says slowly after a few moments of silence. "Do you love Lisa?" I sigh, and pause before I answer, knowing what I want to say, but too scared to say it.

"Not the way I used to," I admit, finally giving up.

"Why are you doing this, Michael?"

"Because I love her, and she loves someone else. It hurts too much ," I explain, suddenly realizing what a jerk I'd been to my best friend.

"What hurts, Michael?" she questions. "It's your own damn fault for not telling her!"

"She loves someone else! How is that not supposed to hurt?" Zoey's finally quiet for a moment.

"I shouldn't tell you anything, but Michael, you are really and truly the biggest idiot I've ever met, not counting Logan. Go talk to Lola, and work this out. Okay?" I nod in shock, and then walk away to find Lola.

I don't see her until the next morning, when she's buying coffee at the coffee cart. She sees me, rolls her eyes, and turns away.

"Lola!" I call out. She doesn't turn around. "Lola Martinez!" I hear her let out a huff as she faces me, putting one hand on her hip and tilting it out.

"What do you want?" she asks, bored.

"We need to talk," I tell her firmly.

"I have nothing to say to you," she starts to turn away, but I grab her arm. She glares at me. "Let go of me," she hisses. I hold her tighter.

"Look, I know you like someone else, but-"

"Wait," she cuts me off. "Is that the reason you've been avoiding me? Because I like someone?" I look down sheepishly. Her eyes widen. "Why?! Why does that matter? Why do you even care? You're dating the girl who made me break up with the man I loved! You have absolutely no reason to avoid me!" She screams. People start to turn heads. I laugh nervously.

"Look, I'm sorry, okay? I care about you, and I don't want that guy to hurt you just like Vince did! I know I was a jackass! I know I had no reason to avoid you! But I'm over it, okay?" I shout.

"Well, I'm not! I can't believe you, Michael, I thought you were better than that," she raised her voice a little higher.

"Can you at least tell me who it is?" I ask her.

"IT'S YOU, YOU IDIOT!" both our eyes widen and a tear slides down her face. "it's you," she whispers, then runs away. This time, I don't try to stop her.

Logan

"Hey, Romeo, how's Juliet?" Some idiot says to me as I walk across the courtyard. I almost punch him, but stop myself once I see Quinn sitting against a tree reading a book. "Hey Logan, where's your science nerd?" another one calls out. I roll my eyes and clench my fist. This has been going on nonstop since Quinn and I confessed our love for each other. And I was getting tired of it. I see Jeremiah Trottman with the PCA news over by a tree, so I march over to him before I can stop myself, and yank his microphone out of his hand.

"Logan, what are you doing?" He shouts, clearly annoyed. I completely ignore him.

"Dear all of PCA, I have something to tell you, so listen up." I say angrily into the camera. "I love Quinn Pensky, and my relationship is none of your effing business. So we're different; who cares? So keep out of our lives. I don't care if you think this is totally wrong, or weird, or a joke, or cute, but stay out of it, or else. Okay? Okay." I thrust the microphone back into his face, and stomp off over to Quinn. Her eyes are wide and I'm sure she thinks I'm insane, but I sit next to her and give her a long, passionate kiss just to emphasize.

"You're crazy," she says after we break apart, but she's grinning.

"Just for you," I smiled, and she rolled her eyes. I put my arm around her and pulled her into me. She rested her head on my shoulder and I kissed her temples, wondering how I got so lucky.

Michael

I am the biggest idiot ever. I can't believe I could be so stupid. I totally jumped to the wrong conclusion, and boy was I ever gonna pay for it. But I knew what I had to do. I took a deep breath, and knocked on the door.

"Michael," Lisa grinned at me. I cringed. I knew I was going to hurt her, but it would have to be done.

"We need to talk," I tell her firmly. She raises and eyebrow and opens the door some more to let me inside, then closes it.

"Is everything okay?" she says, worry clearly in her eyes. I don't respond. "Michael, I know what you're going to say. If it's too hard for you, then…"

"What are you talking about?"

"You're here because of Lola." She shrugs. "Am I right?" I nod. "It's obvious that you love her, and… I kind of saw what just went down. You really are an idiot." She smiles.

"I'm sorry, Lisa. I just… I love you, but… not the way I used to," I tell her, letting out a huge breath as soon as I was done. She looks down and nods.

"I get it, I really do. I kind of feel the same way. I might have butterflies for someone else," she blushes.

"Who?"

"James. He's so nice to me, and we've become really good friends. And now that he and Zoey are over…" she trails off.

"James is a great guy. I think you guys would be great together," I tell her. And I mean it. "Well, um, I should go, so…" I hug her and she gives me a quick kiss on the cheek.

"Go talk to her. She can't reject you," she whispers, and I smile at her then leave, fully confident in what I was about to do.

I knock on the door, stepping back and taking a deep breath. Quinn opens it, and her eyes widen when she sees me. Looking past her, I see Logan sitting on the couch, obviously annoyed because he and Quinn were probably just making out. Ew.

"Um, hey, Michael," Quinn says sweetly, glancing back toward Logan, whose pants front is kind of sticking up… gross. I think I just threw up in my mouth…

"Dude, go away!" Logan yells. Quinn rolls her eyes.

"One second," I tell him, then look at Quinn. "Is Lola here?"

"She's in the bathroom, and… here she is." Lola walks into the room in a bathrobe not even looking at me. "Hey Logan, let's go grab a coffee." She walks back into the room, grabs his hand, and leads him out the door.

"Quinn," I hear him whine. She says something, but I can't make out what it is. I shut the door, and walk over toward Lola, who's drying her hair with a towel.

"What," she says, wanting to be annoyed that I'm here. I can tell she's not, though.

"You're right," I said calmly, because that's what all girls need to be told. She looks at me, raises an eyebrow, but doesn't say anything. "I am an idiot."

"Yeah, we know," she scoffs, then steps into her closet and closes the door.

"The only reason I got back together with Lisa was because I was jealous and confused," I try to explain. She pops her head out, and it's clear she's wearing nothing. I swallow a lump in my throat, and stare at the ground.

"Jealous of what?" she questions, going back into her closet and emerging a minute later fully clothed. Good, now it'll be easier to talk to her.

"I overheard you talking to Zoey and Quinn about some new guy you were into, and I didn't know who you were talking about," I say.

"Well you do now, so good for you. Shouldn't you be out on a date with Lisa or something?" she snaps. I want to cringe, but I don't. I take a few more steps toward her. She crosses her arms over her chest.

"I broke up with Lisa." I stare her straight in the eye.

"Why?"

"It just… wasn't working out." I grab her hand. "We both want to date other people." She sucks in a breath, then stares at the ground. I lift her chin with my finger, then lean in and kiss her as passionately as I can. Sparks fly between us, fireworks are going off in my head, everything is perfect, and all that other cliché stuff girls obsess over. But it feels like the only right thing I've ever done in my life.

Quinn

"I want to watch something romantic," Zoey whines.

"Ew, no, let's watch something scary," Michael suggests. Lola swats at him with her hand.

"You only want something scary so I can jump in your lap and hide my head in your shoulder," she teases him.

"And what's wrong with that?" he grins at her and she leans in and kisses him.

"Eww!" We all chorus, and Logan and Chase throw popcorn at them. We're all in the boys' dorm, Zoey is leaning on Chase on the couch, Lola's in Michael's lap probably close as humanly possible, Logan and I are going to share a beanbag, but I'm in charge of setting up the movie.

"Guys, we chose the movie last week, so I think it's fair if the girls get to choose it this week," Chase reasons, and all us girls nod in agreement.

"Ugh, fine, but I am not watching the Notebook again," Logan says.

"Baby, you cried," I remind him and everyone bursts out laughing. He's fuming, but I can tell he's trying to hide his smile. I wink at him and he finally lets it out.

"Hey, how about Valentine's Day?" Lola pipes up. Zoey nods in agreement. Logan and Michael groan.

"NO, that is so girly!" Logan rolls his eyes.

"I wouldn't mind watching some Ashton Kutcher." Zoey waggles her eyebrows, and Lola bursts out laughing.

"No, no, absolutely not! No Ashton Kutcher!" Chase says.

"Oh, stop. You know I think you're cuter." Then Zoey and Chase kiss, and everyone groans again.

"Hey, how about High School Musical?" I say, and Zoey and Lola nod vigorously. "Okay!" I pop it in the DVD player, turn out the lights, then ease into the beanbag I'm sharing with Logan. I look behind us at our friends; Chase and Zoey feeding each other popcorn, laughing quietly and gazing at each other. Lola and Michael, kissing every ten seconds, but pure joy in their faces, and then at myself and Logan. His arm is around me and I have one leg in between his, and the other on the ground. I lean in closer to him and he pulls me into his lap, kissing my forehead. I rest my head on his chest, listening to his heartbeat and thinking of how amazing everything is, how happy all my friends are right now. And I never want this to end.

OMG, it's done! Wow, I never thought this day would come. But I really want to keep writing these, so please, if you have a prompt or have an idea for a story I could write, by all means, please tell me. I'd like to thank everyone that reviewed; they all made my day, and I constantly read them over and over again. Some even make me cry. Y'all are the best, and this is getting sappy so I should stop… but I had so much fun writing this, and I'm glad you guys enjoyed reading it, too. See you soon!
