(Four months after Graduation)

Chapter 1 Bailey/Cody

Bailey

Bailey Pickett stood in front of Yale's main gate. She was excited and terrified at the same time. But deep down she was also really sad because her boyfriend, Cody Martin hadn't been accepted to the same school. They had made a plan to go together and become chemists together and be together forever…But now that was not going to happen.

He was going to Harvard instead, while she went through with the plan, her head held high. Cody… Bailey thought as she stepped through the gate on her latest adventure. As soon as she got to the front office however, she decided to push him out of her mind until she got done with her first day at the school of their dreams. The first day was not as exciting as Bailey had originally thought. She toured the school and moved into her dorm room. She met her roommate who was nothing like London Tipton (Thank goodness for that).

Cody

The S.S. Tipton was dismantled and Cody Martin stood on the dock watching it being hauled away. Inside Cody felt just like the ship. He was broken after Yale rejected him but he knew it was for the best. He decided to go to Harvard and still pursue his lifelong goal of becoming a chemist.

The worst part of the rejection wasn't the actual letter but the fact that he wasn't with his girlfriend, Bailey. She had gotten accepted and would be going to Yale with honors and everything. He had always known (but hadn't admitted it to himself ) she was smarter than him and it had become a competition between them.

"Cody! It's time to go!" Carrey Martin yelled to her son from the car. Cody tore his eyes from the wrecked cruise ship and his thoughts away from Bailey. He would embrace this new adventure and get on with his life.
