Chapter 1: Brothers Forever.

Zack and Cody Martin were twin brothers. It was pretty much safe to say that they were that they were Two Peas and the Pod. Anyways, the two twin brothers would be inseperable at the young age of four. They even shared a bed together, even though they had two beds in the room. Carrie and Kurt Martin had found it awfully cute. Carrie Martin had always found it so cute that her two baby boys were so close. As the time passed, the boys celebrated birthday after birthday. Finally they wrre six and they were still the best of friends. Alike in each and every way. Even though Zack did tease Cody often, they all knew that it was out of pure love. The boys were living the perfect life in Seattle. They loved it.

But one day had changed each of their lives forever. It was no mystery that both Carrie and Kurt had been arguing a lot of the time. Zack and Cody were in thier room doing homework when they heard something smash against a wall.

"What on earth was that?" Cody asked.

"Good question." Zack said. "Lets go check it out." Zack said.

As the boys slowly opened the door just a crack they were horrified to find out that both parents were fighting yet again. The remains of a family photo lying on the floor. Both of the twins closed the door. They knew something big was about to happen. Zack and Cody were terrified.

"Zack..." Cody whispered one night a month after the big fight.

"yeah?" Zack asked.

"You'd never leave me right?" Cody asked with tears in his eyes.

"Of course not. No matter what...I will never leave you."

"Promise?" Cody asked as he held onto Zack tighter.

"I promise." Zack said as the twins held each other in the others arms instantly being comforted.

The next month was harsh for the Martin family. They were all going through a hard time. Kurt and Carrie continued to fight, and Zack and Cody were feeling neglected. The boys remained together through thick and thin though. They would always comfort each other, because matter of fact, they were all that they had. They loved each other. But one night it seemed that it would change them forever.

"Boys listen to me pleae." Carrie said over dinner.

"What is it mom?" Cody asked.

"Me and mommy are going to get a divorce." Kurt said.

"Really?" Cody asked sadly.

"Yes. And Zack will be living with your dad." Carrie said.

"WHAT !" Zack and Cody screamed at once.

"I'm sorry boys. But this is for the best." Kurt said.

Cody immediately had tears in his eyes. He immediately ran upstairs to his room. He collapsed onto the bed and sobbed. He didn't want Zack to go away. Not only was he his best friend, but he was his brother. He needed a brother through all of the trials and tribulations of life. He needed Zack there to be able to make him laugh, and to just be the brother that he had grown up to love. He only stirred when he noticed that someone was tappng him on the shoulder. He looked up to come face to face with Zack who was basically in the same state as him. He pulled him in for a tight hug.

"Cody...why are they doing this?" Zack asked between sobs.

"I have no idea Zack." Cody said.

"I need you." Zack said.

"I know how you feel. I'm nothing without you." Cody said as he cried even harder.

"I'm going to miss you so much." Zack said.

"here." Cody said as he placed a ring in his hand.

"What is this?" Zack asked.

"Look. I found two matching rings on the road. Just wear this and know that I will always be with you." Cody said. "No matter what."

"Are you going to wear yours?" Zack asked.

"I already put mine on. See?' Cody said as he showed Zack the ring on his right hand.

Zack smiled as he put it on. He admired it in the light. He noticed that they indeed were a perfect match. He just needed to wear it to know that Cody would always be with him. Zack pulled Cody into a hug once again.

"I really wish we didn't have to get separated." Zack said sadly.

"I know." Cody sighed as both of the twins laid down on Cody's bed.

"I just wish this would all be a bad dream and then the next day, wake up to everything to be normal." Zack said.

"I know. I was thinking this was some kind of joke or something. But now it's actually happening." Cody said.

"Well...maybe mom's right. Maybe it is for the best." Zack said.

"How is this for the best?" Cody asked.

"I have no idea... what do you expect? I'm only seven here." Zack said laughing.

"Your right." Cody said. "But for now... why don't we enjoy as much time together as we can?" Cody said.

"Good idea." Zack said as he hugged Cody and both twins fell asleep.

So over the next three months while the divorce was being finalized, Zack and Cody were constantly spending time together. They would hang out after they finished their homework, they would go to the park, they would go to the ice cream shop just to get away from it all, and most of all, they spent time by the lake. It was conscidered their special place. There was this big oak tree that the twins would constantly climb and they would make it to the top branch and just sit back and enjoy the city skyline of Seattle. They loved it. Finally, it was the night before Zack would be leaving for Canada. Zack was holding a sobbing Cody on their special branch.

"I don't want you to go." Cody said as he sobbed even harder.

"Cody I don't want to go either." Zack cried harder. "But I promise you. There will be a way that I will come back for you. I promise you. I will find you when the both of us are older." Zack said.

"Promise me. Promise me that you will never forget about me." Cody cried.

"Cody, I promise." Zack said as he held a crying Cody. Zack cried harder than ever when he held Cody in his arms. He wasn't going to be able to hold him in his arms for lord knows how long.

As the boys returned home they found that Zack's bags were now being loaded into Kurt's car. Zack cried even harder as Cody ran into the house.

"Are you ready to go?" Kurt asked.

"Can I go say goodbye to Cody first?" Zack asked.

"Of course." Kurt said as he continued to place the bags into the car.

Zack once again walked into their shared room and found Cody crying his eyes out again. Zack scooped his crying brother in his arms which just made him cry all over again. He was going to miss him a lot.

"Cody...I promise...I will never forget about you." Zack said.

"Then I won't forget about you either." Cody replied as he wiped his eyes.

"Come downstaris to say goodbye. I know it's going to be hard. But I can't go without saying goodbye to you." Zack said.

"O.k. I will." Cody said as the two made their way downstairs.

Finally the time had officially come for them to say goodbye. Zack held onto Cody for what seemed like the longest time. He was only interupted when Kurt blasted the horn from behind them.

"Bye Cody." Zack said as he gave Cody one last quick hug.

"Bye Zack." Cody waved.

And pretty soon, the van dissapeared down the road towards the interstare. Both of the twins crying in the car and at the front of the house not knowing when they were ever going to meet again. And if either of them were going to be the same person they were when they were separated.
