Hey all FanFiction readers!! I'm Jenni, and my co-writer is Alex. We got this idea one day and started writing (once we came up with a plotline.) So pleasr, R&R, but if you have flames, keep them to yourself.

Disclaimer: We do not own The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, HOWEVER, Kryslin and Sarah are ours. (Also, we don't own Jordan Pruitt's Miss Popularity, which is the saying on Sarah's shirt)

-----------------------------

Cody walked in The Tipton through the revolving door. He jumped down the stairs and ran over to Maddie.

"No running in the lobby!" Mr. Moseby exclaimed.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah," Cody said waving his hand.

"Hey Zack," Maddie said, not looking up from the cash register.

"Hey!" Cody said.

"What?" Maddie asked, looking up. "Oh... sorry Cody," She said. She looked back down. Zack walked in. Actually, he skated in on his skateboard.

"NO SKATEBOARDING IN THE LOBBY!" Mr. Moseby exclaimed.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah," Zack said, waving him off. He clearly had no intention of stopping until he got to the candy counter.

Mr. Moseby threw his hands up in the air and walked away.

"Hey Maddie," Zack said.

"Hey Zack," Maddie said, not looking up.

"Oh sure! Get him right!" Cody exclaimed.

"Well, I knew he had to be Zack, because you're not Zack," Maddie said, opening her laptop.

"Work much?" Cody asked.

"No customers," Maddie replied, not looking up from the screen.

Cody shrugged.

"I got a buck!" Zack said. He put some coins on the counter.

"Two things. One: That isn't a dollar. That is ten cents. Two: Where did you get the money?" Cody asked.

"Well I'm not a mathematikian," Zack said, pronouncing the word wrong and blowing over the second question. Maddie rolled her eyes.

A girl walked in. She had long red hair and she had on a blue long sleeved shirt with the phrase "Miss Popularity" on it, with a crown over the M, and blue jeans with blue fringes down the side of both legs, and silver 3 inch strappy sandals. She walked down the stairs, actually respecting the rules.

"Thank you!" Mr. Moseby said walking by.

The girl looked at him weirdly.

"Hey Sarah!" Cody called. Sarah grinned and walked over.

"Guys, have you seen my ten cents? I had a dollar, and now I only have 90 cents," she said.

"Busted, Zack," Maddie said.

Zack wasn't listening. He was staring at Sarah.

"He does this every day," Cody said to Maddie.

Sarah rolled her eyes and grabbed the ten cents off the counter, and then put it back with 90 more cents. "Can I have a soda?" she asked.

"Sure," Maddie said, grabbed one out from under the counter.

"Hi," Zack said.

Sarah rolled her eyes, "Hi Zack," she said.

Zack smiled.

"This is weird... Zack doesn't normally act this way to girls that he likes," Maddie said.

Sarah grabbed the soda off the counter. "Thanks Maddie," she said.

Cody nodded, "Yeah, this is weird for Zack," he said.

"Sarah! You ready?" A voice yelled. Maddie looked up at the door. A teenager was walking down the steps. She had medium-length brown hair, and sparkling gray eyes. She wore a red shirt that said 'Princess' on it in fancy, gold letters, blue jeans with gold swirls on it, and gold flip flops.

Sarah looked up and nodded, "Yup!" she said.

"Who's that?" Maddie asked.

"Kryslin," Sarah said.

"I see," Maddie said. Zack kept staring at Sarah with a dreamy expression. Maddie took a newspaper, rolled it up and hit Zack on the head with it. Zack didn't notice.

"He's probably thinking about that talk we had with Dad," Cody said.

"Ew!" Sarah said.

"What talk?" Maddie asked.

"The birds and the bees talk," Cody said.

"I am not!" Zack said.

Sarah rolled her eyes, "I'm gonna go up to my suite. Talk to you later Cody and Maddie," she said. Notice she didn't say Zack. Sarah also lived at the Tipton. Her mom was the head chef at the Tipton after Chef Paolo quit. She and her mom shared the most expensive suite in the entire hotel (next to London's suite, of course), and paid Mr. Moseby twice the usual rate, which, of course, he had no problem with. She walked up the steps. "You coming Kryslin?" she asked.

"Yeah," Kryslin said, following her.

"Bye Sarah," Zack said.

Sarah rolled her eyes, "Bye Zack," she said. She walked into the elevator.

"Boys are idiots," Kryslin said.

"Agreed," Sarah said, hitting button number 25.

"I'm never gonna date," Kryslin said.

"If I can find a guy that actually cares about me, I'll date," Sarah said.

"Hey Sare, what time is it?" Kryslin asked.

Sarah got out her phone. "Five. Why?" she asked.

"Let's go! It's coming on!" Kryslin said excitedly.

"What's coming on?" she asked. The elevator opened and Sarah ran to her suite. She opened the door, and revealed a 2 bedroom suite with a kitchen and a living room. The living room had a 50' television, a couch, and an arm chair.

"Remember??? That show that everyone at school is talking about. We wanted to check it out today, remember?" Kryslin asked.

"Oh, you mean that stupid reality show?" Sarah asked sitting down on the couch.

"Yeah. Only so we know what the heck they're talking about. Cheerleading tryouts aren't about skill. They're popularity contests, and we're never gonna be popular if we're outcasts who don't know anything!" Kryslin said.

"Why should we go to cheerleading tryouts?" she asked.

"Because my sister is making me," Kryslin said, "And I can't do it without you."

"Hello! I'm Hank Trueman, and you're watching Be Paired... or Be Square!" The host, a greasy-haired, sneaky-looking man said. "Last week, Tiffany and George almost locked lips, but Grace conveniently interrupted! What will happen next? Let's find out?"

"Okay, this is stupid," Kryslin said.

Sarah rolled her eyes.

For half an hour, the girls watched two people being set up, completely oblivious to it.

"What'll happen next? Find out next week on Be Paired... or Be Square!" Hank Trueman said. He laughed, and it cut to commercials.

Sarah turned off the television. "Wow," she said.

"Yeah..." Kryslin said.

"It was horrible!" Sarah exclaimed.

"I have no clue why people at school watch it... Or why those people are so oblivious to the fact that they're being set up" Kryslin said.

"Yeah! They are...well...idiots!" Sarah exclaimed.

"Big idiots," Kryslin said, getting up. "Talk to ya on IM tonight Sare." She walked out.

"See ya!" she called.

Sarah sighed. What she and Kryslin didn't know, was that show was going to become a big part of their life.
