Desires
Author: Delaney (Me)
Pairing: Logan and Zoey
Rating: High T, some sexual situations. I don't want to make this M, but if you can't handle some things, don't read it.
Disclaimer: I own nothing.
A/N: This is my second Zoey 101 fan fiction. This is not totally based off the episode People Auction. As you can see, it is very much changed, so I don't need comments like "Hey that's not how the it was on the show, blah, blah, blah." This is not the show Please read and review, comments and new readers inspire me to write more. And I'll take any suggestions and try to put them into the story. I also apologize for the shortness of this entry, but it's just an introduction of the story so you can get the character's feelings. Longer chapters will come. But enough rambling, enjoy!

As they stood there in the cold night, shivers ran down the young girl's spine. It wasn't a result from the chilly air, nor the fact that Chase had just accidentally burnt down Sushi Rox the day before. It was from Logan's gaze on her, her enemy. But as soon as she glanced up to look at him, he tore his eyes from her.
This happened often, Zoey reasoned, and after every time he looked at her, she blushed. Truth be told, Zoey had feelings for Logan. He was dangerous and naughty. She liked that in a boy, something opposite from her persona. But along with those good heart feelings came hatred. She hated the way he toyed with girls and the way he was conceited. Zoey hated to love him, but she continued her longingly stare at the boy standing across from her.
Logan inhaled deeply, the smell of ash still filling his nostrils from the previous fire of Sushi Rox. He looked down at the ground, knowing he'd been caught staring at the woman of his dreams again. He self-consciously tightened the grip on his current girlfriend's hand, Callie, not wanting to let on to Zoey his feelings for her. He had felt this way for a long time, but he also felt she was unattainable. One, because his roommate was in love with her, and two, because he felt she'd never give him the time of day because of all the torment he put her through. At some times he even felt she was too good for him. But he would continue his infatuation with her until the right moment came to tell her of it.
Tearing her thoughts away from Logan, Zoey knew something had to be done about this mess that Chase created. She sighed, kicking the ground, hoping to break the silence.
"Well, now that we've cleaned this mess up, we have to figure out a way to get Sushi Rox up and running again as soon as possible," Zoey said, trying to look forward.
"There is no way we're going to be able to raise the kind of money to get the equipment to get this place up again," Chase explained, the guilt in his voice obvious.
"Chase, we've got to stay positive. Stop thinking about it being your fault, it was an accident. We all know you didn't do it on purpose," Zoey said gently, playfully running her fingers through his bushy hair.
Logan stared in envy. He wished Zoey could do that to him, always giving him reassurance that everything would be alright. Despite his tough demeanor, Logan sometimes felt worthless. He knew why, too. Zoey had the effect to make him feel worthless, because he felt so high of her. That's why he was with Callie, a girl that made him feel like he was the back on top. But even if Callie made him feel like he was on the highest mountain, he was nothing without Zoey.
After moments of silence, someone finally spoke up. "I have an idea!" Callie exclaimed with a toothy grin, causing everyone to groan, even Nicole. Callie was the definition of a dumb blonde. Logan started going with Callie about a week ago, claiming to his roomates it was lust at first sight. "We can dump Kazu out on his Caboose and throw in a Taco Bell!" After she said that she burst into a fit of giggles.
The group just stared at her like she was crazy, and when she realized this she stopped, "I guess it sounded funnier when Logan said it to me earlier." She shrugged. The groups' eyes shifted to Logan, whose head down in embarrassment for an uncalled for comment.
Zoey looked enraged, "Logan, that was very rude. This is Kazu's only job! You should know better, but then again, I never expect much from you anyway." She looked at him in disgust.
"It was a joke. I guess little miss perfect can't take jokes, huh? But I'll stop now, I wouldn't want you to sweat off you make-up over that one," Logan shot back at her, but still stinging from her last comment.
Zoey's face grew red, "Logan, you are the most inconsiderable little-"
"STOP!" Chase said, throwing his arms out. "Let's just figure this out, without the arguments." Zoey didn't say another word, but glared at Logan as Logan glared at her.
Chase just shook his head and sighed. "Alright, does anyone have any GOOD ideas that we can do to raise money?"
Suddenly, Lola chirped up. "This one time on Judge Mathis I saw these two people, Melinda and Derek, who went to this charity event and Melinda was sold to him and he didn't return the money or something like that and…"
Chase cut her off, too, "Lola, does this have a point?" The others also gave questioning looks.
Lola took a deep breath before continuing, "The point was it resulted from a People Auction."
"And how would we do that?" Zoey asked, intrigued.
"Well, we could have an assembly where we get students that want to help with Sushi Rox. We would auction them off and the highest bidder gets to order them around. Of course, the starting bid would be at least $15.00."
Nicole started clapping, "Sounds brilliant! I love the idea!"
The rest of the group nodded in agreement, and so they decided on going with the people auction. And so it began…
