Chapter 2: Theories and Concepts

Cody quickly excused himself from Ms. Tutwiler and ran back to his suite. There was a raging pain in his heart. He didn't know which pain was worse; the pain of knowing that Bailey was in love with someone else or the pain of seeing her in pain. Together both these pains made him feel weak. He felt like crying. One thing was certain; he was certainly not over Bailey no matter how hard he tried to convince himself he was.

"Hey buddy" said Zack entering the room with Woody. "How was school?" he asked

"Why are you in bed so early?" asked woody

Cody who was lying flat on his stomach turned to look at them.

"Oh my god" said Woody "Have you been crying?"

"No" said Cody "I was just… just… just.." he continued searching for something to say and when he couldn't think of something to say he started to cry.

Woody and Zack looked at each other in shock.

"What happened buddy?" asked Zack in a soothing voice.

"It's Bailey" said Cody

"What's wrong with Bailey?" asked Woody "Is she okay?"

"Or are you crying over the breakup again?" asked Zack knowing his brother very well. "I thought you were over her, what happened?"

Cody quickly explained what happened before in between sobs. It was very hard for him to even say her name without feeling a stabbing pain in his heart. Zack and Woody listened to the story in rapt silence. Finally it was Zack who broke the silence.

"Are you sure she wasn't just talking about you?" asked Zack

"yeah" said woody "Its not like she had a serious boyfriend after you. Of course she went on couple of dates after that but they weren't that serious."

"But" Said Cody "I have never told her that I love her"

"Never?" said Zack and Woody at the same time

"Never" repeated Cody

"Not even in a poem?" asked Zack

"No" said Cody

"But you say 'I love you' to everyone" said Zack "Barbra, Jessica, abby… but never to Bailey"

"You even told me that you love me" Said Woody

"To me too" said Zack "Are you sure you never…"

"I am sure" said Cody "I wanted to but I was too scared, too scared that it will scare her away. I didn't want to pressure her besides I was waiting for the right time, like our first anniversary in Paris on top of the Eifel tower under the stars in the most romantic place on earth"

"So who is this mystery guy?" asked Zack sitting down next to Cody.

"And how could he make Bailey cry like that? Why on earth would a guy say he loves her and then… who knows what he did to her?"

"I have a few theories" said Zack

"Like what?" asked Cody

"Well I hate to break it to you Cody, but usually when a man says 'I love you' that's usually to… you know" said Zack

"To get her to bed" finished Cody "Zack, do you think they… they…" Cody said breathing heavily. He couldn't even get himself to finish the sentence. Even the thought made him nauseous.

"No, of course not" said woody "Its Bailey we are talking about, she would never… would she?"

"Well No" said Zack "If she didn't sleep with Cody after dating him for almost one year, I don't think she will sleep with a stranger she just met even if he says he loves her"

"But Zack" said Cody "I never really tried to you know…"

"Are you saying that… she might… if you tried" asked Zack

"I don't know" Said Cody "All I know is she said she love him, and when you are in love.." stoped cody unable to even finish the sentence

" Wow, she falls in love real quick" said woody

"Maybe it's someone onboard" said Zack "like Holden or… or…"

"or Zack" said woody in a serious voice

"yeh or Zack or…" said Zack " Hey…" shouted Zack obviously insulted by woody's comment

"Hey" repeated woody "we can't rule him out he is the biggest player onboard"

"okay enough joking" said Zack in a serious expression "And enough theorizing" he continued " Why don't we just ask her"

"I already tried that" said Cody

"of course she wouldn't tell you" said Zack "you are her ex, but if we can get London to ask her she might spill the beans"

"great idea" said woody "And we can listen in using the phone"

"Brilliant" said Zack

"great, I guess" said Cody

"I guess?" questioned woody

"sorry guys, it's just that she is in love with someone else and our plan is not going to change that" said Cody

"But Cody" said Zack "He hurt her really bad, so they are like over, you still have a chance. She'll love you again"

"I doubt that" said Cody "maybe she never loved me at all. May be she was in love with that guy all along. May be she settled for me because he was unavailable..."

"Cody, I think you are going a bit overboard" said Zack

"As Bailey would say don't count the your chickens until the eggs hatch" said woody

To be continued…
