Zoey POV
(Evening Night, Zoey's House)
"See ya Monday Zo". Archer waved as he drove off into the night.
I nodded tiredly as I made my way to the front steps of my home, grabbing the mail as I entered.
Even though I was Kellys right hand Assistant, He's still the most self centered man. I can even say, he's worse than Logan, for real.
I took a bottle of red wine as I received Quinn's call.
"Hey?". I smiled, leaning my new tek-mate on a coffee mug I had.
"Hey, Zo. How you been? I know its been a year since the wedding, I been crazy busy with the launch of the tekmate that I haven't had the time to check on you".
"I'm doing okay, busy with work. You have another year to go before you're back in the States, right?".
"Yeah. Actually Logan isnt here with me. He had to go back home".
"Is something wrong?".
"No, he's picking someone up from the airport. You know, just trying to return the nice gesture you did for us at the wedding".
"I'm confused. What are you talking about". I asked just as my door bell rang. I looked at thr frimt door and back at Quinn who smiled excitedly. "Go on answer the door".
I grabbed my Tekmate and walked towards the front door opening it.
"Hey Zoey". Logan waved.
"Logan?". I asked confused as I looked back at Quinn. "What's going on?".
"We don't want to over explain it, I just want you to look over there, to your new front neighbor house". Logan said as he turned mw to face the house. "We'll just wait till that moving truck moves out of the way".
The truck drove away and I couldn't belive my eyes. In the sidewalk stood Mark, Stacy, and... Chase!
Stacy, who was talking to Chase pointed over at me and Chase turned around, backpack in one shoulder and smiled.
"Chase!". I said as I handed my Tekmate to Logan and ran over to him.
He did the same dropping his backpack and running to me as we reunited with a tight hug.
"Can't believe you're here! I missed you so much". I told him as I didn't let go, thinking that of I did, he would vanish and this could possibly be only just a dream.
"I missed you too, Zo". He said, kissing my forehead.
"How are you here? Why didn't you tell me you were coming?". I said stepping away from him and grabbing his hands.
"We can answer that". Logan said turning my phone so Quinn could see us. "You see, Me and Quinn had our happily ever after wedding, thanks to you two. Planing a more intimate wedding, with family and friends, that was a great Idea Zoey and we know you two planned everything. Chase you paid for the abandoned place rental for the night, bought the cake and decorations and made it special with of course the help of our friends and family as well". Logan smiled looking at my Tekmate as Quinn, spoke.
"It made us really happy that you guys were able to reconcile during the wedding weekend and finally be together after years of separation, but at the same time it made us sad that you both had so little time to enjoy each other's company. Chase, you had to leave to Baltimore that same night, so you could get back in time to start your teaching job there, Zoey you had to start your new job as Kelly's new assistant and once again you both got separated so we did something".
"It took us a year but we made it happen". Logan added, taking over the conversation. "I got a Chase a job at a school, here in California and I also found out he was attending a police academic at the same time he was doing his teaching job so I also told him, he could finish the academy here in California. My good buddy Tom will recruit him and you'll still graduate on time with no delays. Me and Quinn got him this beautiful home, so you and Chase can be neighbors. We told Chase to book a flight to California, if he really wamted to make the move and we would tale care of the rest".
"I didn't like the idea of them buying me the house, but they told me not to worry about it, that if I really wanted to come and live here close you, to take the opportunity so I did".
"You guys also deserve your happily ever after". Quinn said via video chat. "We wanted to give you an opportunity to start it".
Chase and I looked at each other and smiled as we hugged. "Thank you guys". I thanked Logam and Quinn. I turned to see Chase. "I promise you to take this new opportunity to be better woman than before, to love you and take care of you and to be with you even if I'm afraid of what the future holds. Will get through it, together".
Chase nodded as we kissed.
"Yay! Whoa!". Stacey, Mark, Logan, Quinn cheered as they clapped.
We kept embracing each other as we smiled at our friends.
"Well, I gotta go, congratulations you guys". Quinn waved.
"Thank you Quinn". We both thanked her.
Logan turned the phone so he could say goodbye to Quinn. "See ya tomorrow babe, bye".
"So happy for you two". Stacy said as she wrapped her arm around Mark's arm. "Mabye with Chase here, we can get you Zoey to go. out more".
"For sure". Chase nidded with a smile as he and Stacy high fived each other.
"How about this weekend?". Mark suggested. "We can barbecue, invite Michael, Camille, Jared, Logan I know you have to take a flight back to Europe, so...".
"Yeah, you guys have fun, me and Quinn will join you guys on the next one". He looked at his wrist watch and back at us, placing his hands on our shoulders."I have to go, but you guys take care of each other, alright... Me and Quinn will be back in a year, so please dont get married before we get back". He smiled jokingly.
"We will". Chase smiled at him. "Thank you for for helping me move back here to be with this beautiful woman, for the house for everything. I really appreciate it man".
"Yeah, Thank you for this beautiful surprise". I looked back at Chase.
"Don't mess it up, Brooks". He said, giving me a look.
Typical Logan.
"Mark, Stacey, If you guys can give me a ride to the airport? Like now". Logan asked as he open the back door.
"Sure thing". Stacey nodded as she and Mark gave us goodbye hugs. "Zoey, I'll text you for our next get together".
"Okay". I nodded as they got in their car and drove off.
I turned to see Chase who took his jacket off and wrapped it around my shoulders. "It's chilly out here, don't want you to get a cold".
I smiled and hugged him.
As we stood there embracing each other, a car stopped in front of my house. A woman got out and thanked the driver as it drove away.
She grabbed her suitcases, not noticing us and walked towards my front door.
"Who's that?". Chase asked as we separated.
Who would that be?
