Cody was able to go back to his cabin after a few weeks of treatment at the hospital, and of course, also by Bailey. He may not be able to walk normally and he should stay in his cabin until he could at least move his legs. Although, the hospital gave him one condition; he must have a nurse to take care of him.
Of course, Bailey willingly offered herself. At first, the doctor doubted her, but after watching her taking a really good care of Cody, they finally let him go.
One Saturday night, Bailey was walking toward Cody's cabin to give him some notes from yesterday classes. When she opened the door, she saw Cody was trying to stand up on his feet without his crutches. As Cody started to fall, Bailey quickly ran up and caught him.
"Cody! What do you think you are doing?" Bailey asked madly as she helped Cody to lie on his bed. "I need to get up and walk out from this cabin! I'm going to die in boredom if I keep staying here, and I will also miss classes," he answered grumpily.
Bailey just shook her head and smiled. She handed Cody the notes he brought and knelt on the floor next to him. "You don't need to be worry about school, Cody. I'll bring you some notes and home works so you can study in your cabin and still keeping up with the lessons."
"But I feel so helpless and weak. I have so many responsibilities and works to do. I bet Moseby would be really mad if he found out I'm not in my shift, and I also won't be able to pay…" the bet. Luckily Cody was able to stop before he could continue.
"Pay what?"
Cody was mentally kicking himself for talking too much, and when his brain was trying to figure out something, he stuttered.
"Um…pay my…um…the buffet I promised for Woody?" he answered, and he knew that it was the stupidest excuse that he has ever made. "Oh well, okay then. Now, if you're bore to be in this room, you can walk outside with your crutches. But, just remember to be careful. You don't want you other body parts to break, do you?" replied Bailey.
Cody smiled. "Yeah, of course I don't."
Bailey returned his smile and looked at her watch. "Well, I better get going to my cabin now. It's almost curfew and I definitely don't want to go to detention. Good night Cody, I love you."
Bailey leaned in and kissed Cody's lips softly. When the door was closed, Cody could only sigh. Luckily Woody was in Zack's cabin tonight for a little air band fun and donuts party, so Cody could sleep well without hearing one of Woody's classic rock collections.
"Good night Cody, I love you."
That sentence echoed in Cody's head. Part of him wanted to ignore it, but another part wanted to tell Bailey the same thing.
He thought to him, maybe this bet wasn't bad at all. He maybe finally would try to give his relationship with Bailey another chance and try to make it last. He had to admit it. He was in love again, with the same girl over and over; Bailey. For Cody, that was a sign that they were meant to be.
But still, he also didn't want to experience the same breakup again. He wanted to get rid of his feelings for Bailey, but with his condition right now with a broken leg, maybe he should wait.
That night, Cody still couldn't sleep. He wanted to roll over on his bed, but his broken bones wouldn't allow him. He closed his eyes and sang a lullaby to himself, but it still didn't work. So, he decided to sat up and carefully grabbed his phone from his bedside table and texted the one person that cause all of the trouble.
Zack, meet me in my cabin tomorrow.
With his crutches, Cody walked over to the sky deck to meet Bailey there, and when he arrived, he found her sitting on one of the stool of the smoothie bar, and to Cody, looking beautiful as always.
Bailey spotted Cody as she turned the stool and waved at him, motioning him to join her. Cody quickly shook off his thoughts and walked over carefully to her, because he knew he must do the right thing.
He had talked to Zack a few hours ago, and for the first time, he was right.
"Just do whatever you want, man. You just need to listen to your heart."
Darn, he stole my quote! Cody thought in the middle of his way. When he finally arrived in front of Bailey, she helped him to sit down and gave him a light peck on his lips.
"So, you have something to talk about with me?" she started.
Cody nodded. "Um, yeah."
"So, what is it?"
Cody took a heap of deep breath before starting. "Bailey, I need to talk to you about something, and this conversation would probably be hard for both of us."
Bailey nodded her head and gave Cody a look of confusion.
"And I should've have told you this since before we dated again. Look, first of all, I'm so sorry…"
"Cody…"
"I'm so sorry…because I love you."
Bailey once again gave Cody another look of confusion. "What do you mean?" she asked softly.
"I'm so sorry because I love you. I know that I'm not as perfect as you want me to be, and I'm really sorry for being such a jerk to you. I should've trust you…"
Bailey sighed. "Cody, that's our past, and now, this, is our present. Can we just forget about what happened in Paris? We need to get over this, you know."
Cody gave Bailey a small smile as Bailey carefully wrapped her arms around him.
"And one last thing, I love you too, Cody."
Cody hugged Bailey back and starting to get lost in his thoughts. He was doing the right thing; listening to his heart. His heart told him to confess to Bailey how he really felt about her.
Another news flash, Cody was finally in love, again, with the one and only Bailey.
